Additionally here is a method to update it automatically:...
Thanks! Finding out that dnsmasq is used helps alot. I also found that in 12.10, 127.0.0.1 in resolv.conf was changed to 127.0.1.1 which is what I have. Local caching is not done automatically, but...
I'm just curious, does anyone know how DNS resolving works in Ubuntu (I'm running 12.10)? I have changed my DNS provider in the Network Settings dialogue, and everything works fine. I'm just confused...
Thanks! I had actually seen that option in the BIOS, but hadn't played with it. I think I will leave it setup the way it is right now. Thanks again for the help!
The backlight part worked for me. Just make sure to run "sudo update-grub" after editing the command to update the files.
The brightness keys part also worked, but I have to press the Fn key with...
I don't know what the procedure for x1110 is, but for my x4650 the following worked.
The easiest thing to do would be to uninstall with the following command in the Terminal:
sudo dpkg -r...
I was able to get mine going again by redownloading the driver from the Lexmark support site. I went into Synaptic and uninstalled the old driver. I closed Synaptic and ran the new driver...
I have the same issue with Lexmark X4650. After the upgrade, sane-find-scanner finds it, but scanimage -L does not. I looked through /etc/sane.d/ and found that the configuration file was still...
I was able to complete the cmake process with the following libraries on Linux Mint Julia:
sudo apt-get install cmake libblkid-dev e2fslibs-dev libboost-all-dev libaudit-dev
I'm trying this as well. I think the following line worked for me:
sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev
I'm using Linux Mint Julia. Still having some issues with ext2fs though, even though I...
Here's another bash script. All you do is put any .jpg files you want in a rotation into a folder. Run the script and select that folder. That's it!

Read that same post you quoted again. He has updated it to show that there is a solution. You need libstdc++5. The link is in his post.
The right snap script worked for me, but the left and max scripts did not.
I was able to get the left script to work by modifying the following line from

Where is what? The tutorial is the first post of this thread that you are responding to: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9062855&postcount=1
I don't know much about that old thread and installing these drivers. But, I do know that in order to run alien (or any other command) as root type "sudo" before the command. In your case for the...
I have updated the tutorial in light of some of the comments posted. I used to suggest changing the root password, but using sudo in the terminal to run the script works just fine. I have also added...

Open gconf-editor.
Go to /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/
Uncheck "Supsend"
I just realized that its not the screensaver. It has to do with after the computer comes back from being suspended to RAM. I don't see an option for disabling this under System > Preferences > Power...
I have disabled the screensaver from locking the computer and asking for a password. I did this by unchecking the box in System > Preferences > Screensaver which says 'Lock screen when screensaver is...
It's asking for the root password. Trying running the script with sudo in the terminal using:
sudo sh NAMEOFSCRIPT.sh
Does the printer have a USB connection that it could use for installation? If so, you can install the printer while it is hooked up to the USB port. Then, copy that printer and change its URI to...
This is because it is asking for the system's root password, which by default in Ubuntu does not exist.
Try running the script with sudo in the terminal:
sudo sh NAMEOFSCRIPT.sh
