I'm marking this solved since it sort of worked out. I could never mount it so I borrowed a motherboard and power supply. I got the old RAID 1 up and running and copied it over to a spare. This was a...

It did install quickly from a USB. After awhile it started dropping the Wifi and wouldn't reconnect. If I rebooted it got it back. I searched in the forum and tried this command:
echo "options...

Thanks for all your help. I got an HP Stream 13. Same everything except wider screen. It will make me more tolerant of Unity.

I got a refurb from Amazon. It was $20 more than the 11. Right now I'm...

I'm glad the are some good suggestions. The HP Stream 11 seems interesting. It does have an SD port so I could add storage. Small SSD like this can be quiet. I've looked through Notebook review and...

I got a Dell Mini 9 years ago. When I ordered it I got an extra battery. A few years ago I got an aftermarket 8 cell and it worked fine. This is now gradually dying so I ordered one as similar as...

I've had a Dell Mini 9 for a long time and it is showing its age. Its time to look for a replacement and I'm open to suggestions. I do like the small size and light weight but I would like a better...

I've managed it for myself at home a couple of years ago. I've had a Shuttle running a RAID 1 for 7 years now. It has 1T disks and they both have failed, fortunately not at the same time. It is a...

I'm with Mr. Dragonbite. I have some Truecrypt volumes and would like to migrate to something that makes me feel safe. All of my computers have Truecrypt volumes that don't automount. I bring them up...

Thanks for all your suggestions. Some of the more obvious are out. I live out in the country and have only one neighbor within range and he doesn't own a computer. This went on over 2 to 3 days so I...

Forgive me if this has been previously discussed but I just found I'm liable for a lot of money. Over a several day period my Paypal account purchased a lot of stuff I never heard about. I worked...

My Dell Mini 9 is dying. It lost the SSD yesterday and had been flaky, running hot and such.

I'd like to replace it with a Ubuntu only laptop. I know there are refurb places out there but they all...

I found a solution - unfortunately it is Arch Linux. I know this community is trying to make a Linux that can install right of the box. The problem is that it does this by leaving a large number of...

I had a desktop system that was running the Jaunty alternate to desktop. (The alternate supports RAID 1.) Foolishly I upgraded to Lucid.

The real issue is my audio. I have the following:

...

I did get video back. I purged the ubuntu-restricted-extras and re3installed it then installed gdm again. I now have video but no sound. All the pulseaudio is back. I have the Intel ICH9 HD Audio...

I have a Shuttle SP35 that had been running Jaunty. I mainly left it alone since it was a music server. I had used the alternate Desktop to install it since it has a RAID 1. I had also removed...

I have a Shuttle Desktop. Since it has a RAID 1 I'd installed it with the alternate CD a few years ago. It had been a pain to configure since it had an Intel chipset for HD audio. Pulse audio simply...

I had the same problem with Xubuntu 9.10. It just showed device not ready.

I went to http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 and downloaded legacy drivers. I then went to System -> Hardware...

I used my camera to take some videos last week and tried playing them on my Ubuntu machines. I have Karmic on a Shuttle Desktop with HD audi, a Dell Mini 9 and an old Dell with Xubuntu. They all...

Digitalhost1's method does work but I still can't get to it as a regular drive. This is on the client side. I have a Dell Mini 9.

Early this summer I started setting up a Ubuntu server based on a...

Thanks. That really made a huge difference. I guess that going between window & ubuntu this wasn't an issue but it made ubuntu to ubuntu connections awful.

I know that VNC is oldschool but I was...

I have a 9.04 alternate Desktop distro that might become something of a music and fileserver since it is peppy and has a 1T RAID 1. I also have a Dell Mini 9 with 9'04. They both work well. They just...

Actually 'Drear' was a better description than my original intent of 'Great'. When I finally hooked it up to a real stereo it was horrifying. Total crap sound.

I kept trying and finally realized...

I just wondered if there is any USB based Wifi that works well under Ubuntu. I mean that I'd like to hear that somebody has made it work with WEP and such under 9.04.

I picked up a Shuttle...

Thanks for the suggestions. I don't know what happened but it must have been some of the many updates. Rhythmbox and other appps get the info and can import the files.

Right now this is a side...

(I'm trying to change the title from 'Drear' to 'Great'. Please forgive my fat fingers.)

I posted this in general but it seems more specific to here.

Most posts I've seen with show no sound but...
