So, there is an interesting configuration problem on first upgrade or install of Karmic Koala the latest offering from Ubuntu.
It’s a very easy fix, as the hue setting in totem is set to the extreme left causing all video players to render with a blue hue. To correct open totem movie player click on Edit -> Preferences -> Display and then slide the hue slider to the middle.
So, if you are like me you’ve been watching the countdown on http://www.ubuntu.com for the release of Karmic Koala Ubuntu 9.10 and have upgraded/installed as soon as you could.
Well for those of us that I consider pioneers, I say it’s time to fix some bugs. The first I’ve had problems with is the labyrinth python problem.
To fix:
sudo vim /usr/bin/labyrinth
change line 40 from “/usr/lib/python2.x/… to “/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/labyrinth”
in Vim i = insert or edit mode
then escacpe :wq will exit edit mode and write the file changes followed by exiting.
Then you simply need to apt-get install python-numeric
