Hi all,

I've recently started at a new job and are having problems connecting to the Active Directory shares with Ubuntu.

I'm currently on a Windows laptop and can see the server and share...

Yes, I am using 'sudo' :) So the file is saved and that option is executed on reboots.

But next time 'update-grub' is run (kernel update, grub update, something else), that change will go away as...

Hi all,

I have a 2008 Macbook Pro and I have installed an OCZ SSD into it. I have read and followed the instructions on the ArchLinux wiki about enabling the AHCI mode on the SATA controller:...

OK, in the meantime, I have a replacement Macbook Pro and I have installed my SSD into it. I've got the grub menu to display for 10 seconds, so win :)
I manually edited the boot entry "Ubuntu, with...

Hi all,

I used the Ubuntu+mac ISO to install Ubuntu 11.10 on this Macbook Pro and it's great :) Even figured out that a two-finger tap on the touchpad does a right click, cool :)

I don't know...

Thanks! Done, however when the Mac boots up, I don't see the grub menu, I get a white screen, then a dark purple screen (maybe the grub menu is being displayed here but the Mac video card is not...

Could try -o ro or -r in the mount options for read-only in conjunction with force, make sure you don't accidentally change anything on the HDD.

Hi all,

I have a Macbook Pro 15" from 2008 and I now have a Falcon II 64Gb SSD I would like to use in it :) I currently have a 250Gb HDD in the Macbook.

I've been reading this wiki page on the...

Hi,

I support a local business and they just bought a two new printers, a Ricoh Aficio MP C2000 and C2500. I have been trying to set them up to no avail.

The Ricoh technicians who installed...

Yuk! That sounds like you have a bad video card, or a fan has failed somewhere, hence the overheating.

Is there a hardware test or similar option available in the BIOS? You could try an...

Hi all,

I have a HP/Compaq dc7900 slim desktop PC as my work computer. It has 2 16x PCI-e slots, one 1x PCI-e slot and one PCI slot. I have put three ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT video cards into the...

OK, all fixored! I put the video cards in the system one at a time in the different slots, to confirm that both cards worked, as well as confirming that both PCI-e slots worked, and now that I have...

Hi all,

I have a HP/Compaq 7900 SFF PC and it has a motherboard with two PCIe x16 slots. I have two HD 2400 XT (each dual head) video cards, so I thought I could drop them in there and have four...

You would think so, huh!!! I have now successfully gotten Win7 installed and wrestled the drivers into submission and can now reboot the device without Win7 bluescreening on boot, and subsequently...

Alright, I have been playing around with this device and I was pretty sure that the wireless was not turned on at all - I have a copy of Win7 here and I installed that and tried to get the HTC...

You know, I was wondering the same thing myself, I thought that maybe the wifi card was somehow hidden behind the SDIO controller? I'm going to put Windows back onto the device and check if the...

The problem with these instructions is that it appears that there are no source files for the sd8686.ko module in Ubuntu.

I've found the source for the sd8686.ko off the Marvell web site here:...

OK, I've just put Ubuntu on my HTC Shift and I'm going to go to the pof web site and see if I can get wireless working - I've read that page before I started putting Ubuntu on this Shift, and it...

Hi all,

I've set up my Mac Mini G4 as a headless weather station and want to be able to turn it off by pressing the power button without having to SSH to it. APCI isn't available on PPC, and...

Hi,

I've just started to try to set this up in Mythtv and was wondering if you could let me know exactly what you did to get it working?

I know that it's a HID device, and it's listed in...

Oh thank god, I thought I was going insane talking to myself here :p

I can't remember how I knew what the type of hardware was... That laptop has since been repaired and moved on, so I don't have...

Hey, try these instructions on the LinuxTV wiki: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Asus_U3100_Mini_plus_DVB-T

I'm just looking around for a U3100, not a mini :)

I took the plunge and restarted the server from SSH. I rebooted and used a previous kernel to start the computer, and used --configure, update etc and all was well :)

Hi,

I've got the same problem, although I lost my keyboard and mouse by unplugging them after the download was completed, due to little fingers having access to the keyboard and mouse.

I came...

It'll depend on your video card - my E6500 won't let me use the laptop panel at the same time as the two external displays off the E-plus port adapter. I should have paid more attention and ordered...
