Guess it depends..
C++ - It's really been changing a lot for me.. generally I use QT Creator because it can parse CMakeLists, but usually just as a text editor. I make/debug/etc in a terminal on the...

It's quite a bit easier than it used to be, in my experience. I too would install it under OSX if possible. For me, it's always detected every OS. And if an OSX update kills rEFInd, all I have to do...

I highly recommend what grahammechanical said. The best way for you to see if you like it is to get a feel for it.

Running from a live CD will have no effect on your Windows installation. Use it...

Hi, how long has this been going on? I've had a similar issue since sometime last week, but we've been unable to find a solution so far.

What kind of network device are you using? Version of...

Good catch on the power management. Didn't notice that turned back on.

Alright, so from using iwconfig, I was unable to make any progress. The interface is refusing to accept any input....

Thanks for the response, Ghostmn.
I do use the SDL wiki, and have went through several of the Lazyfoo tutorials (They are excellent for teaching specific components).

I guess the problem is that...

Bad news. After removing the udev rules and rebooting, no networks could be detected at all using the built-in wireless.
The b43 mod is still loaded, and the bcm4331 device is recognized, so not...

The WICD install went great. Besides the absence of a tray icon, it detected all the nearby networks and connected just fine.

Unfortunately, the problem is still there, and if anything, quite a...

I just stuck with wl since it is what Ubuntu actually uses by default (Appears in the proprietary driver list) and it always seemed a little more stable (Back before this issue).
But I've switched...

I have looked through the output of syslog, but really do not know what specifically to look for.
The output is pretty much entirely from boot. There is nothing that comes up after (During actual...

(I can go ask around the SDL forum, but I already had an account here, figured I would try here first EDIT: Made an account there, but have to wait for approval)
I have been messing around with...

Seeing as we are using two completely different network devices, I highly doubt my issue (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2236092) is related, but I am having somewhat similar issues.

Well, 12.04 brings way more issues in exchange for fixing wireless.
And unfortunately I cannot take it apart and exchange the PCI wifi (As much as I'd like to remove it and grind it into dust)
But,...

Update, I tried installing Elementary Luna since it is based on 12.04 (IIRC) and I had it laying around.
The install itself failed, something about Grub-EFI package not finding target. I had this...

Fedora 20, wl driver.. same issue. Took hours to update and get it set up, too.

Thought for sure another distro would work, but this leads me back to thinking my wifi transponder is damaged or...

Nope :( I switched to Google's nameservers, and ignored ipv6 (Which I tried before I wiped the computer)

This computer has been out for 3 years, and I've always had issues with it's wireless!!

No-Go.. tried multiple reboots. Talk about frustrating.. I've been using this computer for a web development class :(

Hi Hadaka, I followed the steps for reinstalling b43 but had the same issue. wl was already purged.
(This is shadesofoctober, btw, just got back into my old account)

I have a MacBook Pro 8,1 with the 4331 as well.
The problem would appear to be that the mpodroid mactel PPA does not have a Quantal repository, so apt-get fails when it attempts to contact the...

Yeah, this isn't solved.
In fact, I've had this problem for quite some time. A few months, at least. I looked a while ago when I first experienced it, but there were no threads about the overall...

Well, for the heck of it:
1) On my desktop, the proprietary fglrx driver breaks compiz. (Apparently a common issue right now)
2) On my Macbook, I'm unable to get the wireless up and running....

If it has anything to do with Apple hardware, you should definitely post it in the Apple Users forum. There's a lot of users who are rather knowledgeable about the issues you'll encounter attempting...

I would like to find out more info about this as well.
I have a Radeon HD 6970, and after a clean install, the fglrx driver caused the blank desktop issue. I can open a terminal with the keyboard,...

I also had issues with the fglrx driver.
I ran "sudo apt-get purge fglrx*" to revert to the open source driver, although the above command will work just fine too.

The problem is that these...

Thanks!
@Juan, looks nice, but everything (Including the functions) are in Spanish :( I could work around that.. but I might as well use an English API.

@Sslaxx, nice suggestions. I forgot about...
