Nope, it seems that for some stupid reason the network manager folks have decided that you have to have sudo rights to connect to a wireless access point. They want to store all wifi settings in...
I installed 12.04 on my test box with no special settings and so far the Intel driver works fine. I'll let it burn-in over the weekend and then stress test it a bit more, but from the few hours I...
fbdev just gives a blank screen so switching back to intel driver with options i915 modeset=0.
If this does not work we might just have to convert the GX60 back to Windows, but I think we might be...
Everytime I give up I have to try one more thing.
i915-kms.conf is back but using modeset=0
and xorg.conf is using fbdev driver
So far seems okay on my test box and on a users system that was...
Thanks for the help. I guess we will just have to put up with the GX60's crashing randomly since I can't use Debian packages because of the patching solution management choose (don't ask, only...
I got the same results as you;

I reconfigured a few more GX60's to use only the xorg.conf file and removed the modprobe.d option. One ran for a few hours then got the same error and crashed, but the other is running fine. The...
Multipal GX60 have been giving me issues, but so far there is one that is crashing every 45-50 minutes. Others seem to stay up for days. They are in remote locations, and I finally got one to test...
Yes, converting a bunch of old Dells, GX50,60,745 into thin clients. Only the GX60 is having issues. Latest attempt failed after 50 minutes. Removed the i915 from modprobe.d, ran update-initramfs. ...
Backports does not have anything newer, just the 3.0.0.17 kernel, and I would rather not install stuff from wheezy since that will make latter support a problem.
I will try setting the resolution...
Still crashes with these options for me, about 3 times while typing this response, but it has been running fine for over 10 minutes now.
Currently I am using the above X.org settings along with...
I am running 10.04 with the 3.0.0.17 backported kernel and it worked on some systems with this chipset (82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE used in Dell GX60), but not others.
The system is running XFCE and...
Each time I dock or undock my laptop I lose the GUI, I just have a blank screen. Not even a blinking cursor. I can press CTRL-ALT-F1 to get to a terminal, then press ALT-F7 and now the GUI is back....
I think krandrtray might let you tell the system when multiple monitors are present or not. It might not be installed by default, which is why I think you are having problems.
That is correct, KDE works fine without the PIM and the akonadi/nempomuk stuff. Many say it even works better since akonadi and nepomuk have a tenancy to make the system unusable while unused files...
Since this is in the [ubuntu] thread I assume you are not using kubuntu.
To get kalarm to autostart you will have to goto System->Preferences->Startup Applications

If people will be uploading files from a virus prone OS, then you may want to consider it to protect people that might download the infected file.

From the liveCD, try the menu along the bottom of the screen for boot options, I think it is F5 or F6 and select "nomodeset". That should get things to show up on the TV.
If that works, then...
When I schrunk my Win7 partition to make space to install Ubuntu on my Samasung laptop, I still have the Windows recovery boot option that grub picks up. The new version of grub that has been used...
Here are the steps I took to convert the latest Java .bin file into a .deb so that I could add that to my repo to update my systems with.
1. Download latest version of Java from:...
Or just try the live cd and see how well that works.
Installed fine for me, but it broke my desktop effects on my week old laptop. :(
