I just got a new Thinkpad T530 and put ubuntu 12.10 on it (64-bit) Everything seems to be working fine except for the speakers (headphones work if they are plugged in) Ubuntu says the sound is all...

Resetting the bios worked! Thanks for the help

Now rfkill list gives:


robert@robert-Lenovo-V570:~$ rfkill list
0: ideapad_wlan: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes

And it now reports that the wireless is soft blocked and hard blocked:


robert@robert-Lenovo-V570:~$ rfkill list
0: ideapad_wlan: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no
2: phy0:...

I blacklisted the module. Now when I click on the network icon, it also says "wireless is disabled by hardware switch." Flipping the actual hardware switch back and forth has no effect on this.

I have upgraded to Ubuntu 11.10 and the issue is still here.

I'm working on a friend's HP G60-630 US laptop. It's running Ubuntu 10.04 32-bit. At first headphones weren't working with the computer so I installed the Linux-backports-modules-alsa-lucid-generic...

Yes, the hotkeys work.

I just made sure they are both checked. It still doesn't dim until the battery reaches 10%

I am running 64 bit Ubuntu 10.04 on a panp7. I have the power management settings set to lower the backlight when it's on battery power. However it does not reduce the backlight until the battery...

I just received a Pangolin Performance laptop. I'm running mozilla's build of Firefox 4 beta 2. Flash does not work although it works in the Firefox 3.6 that came preinstalled. How can I fix this?

I got it to work! I'm not sure exactly what did it. I reinstalled the drivers a few times. I got it to work with the linuxant drivers after activating mic f(maybe I overlooked this before but I was...

I just noticed that when I boot the computer with the lines in the file I get these two error messages

The mic was muted, but it still does not work even after being unmuted. I played around with its sensitivity settings, and I tried disabling Skype's ability to mess with the settings. I still can't...

My friend has a new HP G60-630GS. I installed Ubuntu 10.04 on it and everything seems to work except the built in microphone, and I'm trying to set up skype. Any ideas?

Thanks that worked perfectly.
