    [all variants] panp7 won't post, bios error beeps

    My panp7 was having video issues, so I rebooted it. When it tried to turn back on, it gave one long beep, two short beeps, a long pause, and two short beeps.

    Is there anything I can do at all?...

    [ubuntu] Re: Laptop, External Monitor Problem

    I have the same notebook and the same issue.

    fn-f4 seems to be the suspend function, so while I presume that would work, I don't think it's really relevant here. fn-F7, the key I think is "cycle...

    [SOLVED] Re: /home - format or not for 9.10?

    You don't have to format /home, and probably shouldn't (it saves a lot of pain). The old settings shouldn't interfere with anything. In general, keeping /home around is a safe practice.

    System76's bigger-screened laptops have Nvidia cards, which rule them out. I'd probably get a Gazelle, but the '/' and '.' keys are really narrow for some reason, and I hate typing on them. That's...

    Could you be more specific with regards to the models involved, and what hardware they have? You can use everything (or at least everything you've used) with only free drivers?

    Hacking. Some movies / music.

    This really doesn't matter, though. Anything that fits the above constraints is fair game.

    [ubuntu] Re: No graphics in Jaunty

    Both log files didn't show much. I don't have the system in front of me, but as I recall, there were very few (if any) errors in Xorg.0.log, and nothing about the crashes in syslog.

    I don't want to change the $HOME I currently have, I just want another encrypted ~/Private directory inside it, for the things I want "more" secure than the rest of my $HOME.

    I have an encrypted $HOME directory, but I would like to have the same ~/Private capabilities I had in 8.10, preferably with a different algorithm than AES, like Serpent.

    [ubuntu] Re: busy resources on aireplay

    Did you reboot between patching the drivers? If you didn't unload the modules (you have to do this even after installing them) then the old drivers would have been in effect.

    The specific error there is that you don't have a VIA CPU with the Padlock features. Those features include hardware AES, but you don't have that chip, hence why the device is not found.

    [gnome] Re: problems installing tor

    You don't use your own GnuPG configuration to add keys to Apt. You use apt-key. Your permissions are incorrect, because now they're more readable because you ran gpg as root. You should fix that.

    Yup, it'll be a lot more convenient, and a lot less secure. If you're keeping clear backups, you might as well not bother with encryption in the first place.

    I don't think recovery mode will work, because it will still go through PAM for the login. A boot CD is your only option.

    [ubuntu] Re: busy resources on aireplay

    Are you sure your drivers are patched? You failed the injection test.

    The aircrack forums would be a better place than this, though.
