OK I will give it a try. It's just a bit strange that the same graphics card would now be a problem with the same version of ubuntu that's all I was struggling with...

Thanks but my graphics card isn't new, I had it in my previous system which worked with Ubuntu fine.

The only things that are new are the Z77 mb and CPU (even the memory has been carried over).

I'm having trouble installing 12.10 x64 on my new Ivy Bridge system (Z77/i7 3770) the longest I can get it to run for post-installation is 20-30 secs before it hangs. I'm not using the integrated...

Great, I have it working in Debian Squeeze too.

I've googled this a fair bit today but the word "events" is both specific to our question but also quite generic so it's difficult finding an answer.

I've tried all the mdadm switches I can find...

Any luck with this? I'm wondering the same thing as my RAID 1 array has >40 events now...

Go for Debian instead, it's more stable and reliable than Ubuntu. Ubuntu is too cutting edge.

I started out with Ubuntu on my NAS but after several unrecoverable package breakages I switched to...

I set up my first mdadm array yesterday so would like to set up monitoring and email notifications this evening. Can anyone verify that the last bit of advice above works (so that I can ignore the...

No, I had to resort to a re-install :(

No. It's not an install problem I've had it up and running for 2 weeks.

When I click my username on the login screen I get nothing. It tries to do something but I don't even get a password box.

Can anyone help? I'm about 2 hours away from a complete re-install :-(

My wireless connection isn't live until I get into gnome so I don't have a network connection.

I've removed the new user and their home directory.

I've also changed my password in a tty console...

PS I can do CTRL+ALT+F1 to get a terminal up and login that way so I think it is a GUI problem.

How do I choose safe mode during boot? I can't remember the key to press, thanks

I can't seem to login into ubuntu this morning. I'm using 11.04 64 bit.

It's been working fine for a few weeks, but this morning I select my name with the mouse and it just returns to the same...

Thanks - it shows 8 cores as it should for an i7 920.

I also ran:


dmesg | grep Intel

which shows 8 cores too - I should have thought about that before!

I've come across a few old articles on the web that suggest that hyperthreading isn't enabled by default in Ubuntu. Some of those articles date back to 2006 so can someone clarify this for Lucid...

my interfaces file doesn't contain a eth0 or wlan0 entry so I think it's redundant now???

Yes, and I realise that it can also be set in the interfaces file, but I was worried that with the new network manager that this file wasn't used any longer?

Did you get this resolved? I'd like to use metrics to give my wireless connection a higher priority than my lan connection.

I'd like to give my wireless a higher priority than my wired connection.

Any further pointers on metrics?

ubuntu automatically prefers wired connections over wireless.

I have a similar set up to you and I'm desperately trying to find a way to set my wireless connection as a high priority. My wired...

I think you're correct about having to edit /etc/network/interfaces but I'm not sure to what degree that file is used anymore?

My NAS runs debian lenny so I'm familiar with the basic settings in...

I've just installed lucid and I'm configuring all the settings I need.

I have 2 network interfaces on my PC, ethernet (eth0) and wireless (wlan0).

eth0 (192.168.2.2) is connected to a switch...

Did you ever resolve this? I'm getting RPC errors when trying to mount nfs shares.
