Well I get an error when I try to boot the LiveUSB drive (which is strange because installation worked fine):

[ 26.773602] mei 0000:00:16:0: init hw failure.

I guess I did install it in UEFI/EFI mode since I got a screen that looks like the one here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI#Identifying_if_the_computer_boots_the_HDD_in_EFI_mode. I did not...

I just got an Acer laptop with Windows 8 pre-installed. I am planning on dual booting Ubuntu with it and using a separate NTFS partition to share data between operating systems.

I was able to...

So I'm having a weird problem here... I have had Ubuntu set up on my Mom's computer for 2 years and this is the first time I'm having a major problem with it: it can't connect to the internet. I...

This my first time using Ubuntu on a laptop and I have not been able to get the wireless on my home network. I have a Gateway C-142XL tablet.

When I disable the security on the router, I can connect to my home network. However, I don't want to do that so how can I get Ubuntu to work with my Wireless security? I am using a DLINK router...

I am unable to connect to my home wireless network with Ubuntu on my Gateway C-142XL tablet. I was able to connect wirelessly once when I was using the LiveCd so I'm not sure why it decided to stop...

I should note that this problem has been resolved. I did not think that ZoneAlarm Firewall was running because its icon did not display in the system tray (it normally does that). However, when I...

ZoneAlarm was running in the background (despite not showing up in the system tray) and apparently blocking the internet. Everything works fine now. :popcorn:

Here's the deal. I've got a Desktop that I run in a dual boot setup (Ubuntu Linux and Windows XP). Internet works perfectly on Ubuntu. I can use either the NIC integrated into the motherboard or...

I'm not sure how to look at the DNS settings (although I did right click on the connection in the system tray and try to repair my connection to no avail) but this might give someone an idea:

I just tried this for my PCI network card. I went to Realtek's website, downloaded the latest driver and installed it on my Desktop but still no internet... I couldn't find the nvidia nfornce...

To summarize:

I have an onboard network card (integrated into the motherboard) and a PCI network card. I have tried using both of them in Ubuntu and XP. On Ubuntu, they both work. On XP,...

It doesn't report any problems. I tried to update the driver but that failed, probably because I don't have internet. I'm going to try connecting with my network card again and see what that does.

It's wired. I have a network card (wired as well) but I use the LAN port on the motherboard (integrated network adapter). I did try using the network card LAN port but it didn't work either.

I run an XP-Ubuntu 9.04 dual-boot system. Internet works fine in Ubuntu but on XP I can't connect. Any ideas?

I just upgraded my computer from Ubuntu 8.06 to 8.10 and then to 9.04. As expected, Nvidia drivers needed to be reinstalled and the graphics are all messed up. However, now the screen resolution is...

I don't remember configuring Ubuntu to play DVDs ever being this hard. I'm on a relatively unmodified Ubuntu 8.04 install and I've already tried installing lots of codecs from various howto's. I've...

Yea, my mistake. All these stupid animal names... ;)

Hey everyone. Sorry I haven't checked this topic in a long time. However, I just upgraded to Hardy Heron 8.04 and I'm glad to find that Firefox 3 now has good integrated widgets.

I just downloaded tremulous from synaptic and fired up a game as an alien and as a dretch my rotation is being limited (never has done this before). If I spin in a circle, I will eventually not be...

Does it not work at all (the same widgets)? What browser are you using? Are you sure you installed to the right path? Firefox32 is usually /usr/local/firefox32 but you might want to run dpkg -L...

Thanks for the guide. Hopefully I will never need it! ;)

I like the step by step Internet Explorer screenshots. :popcorn:

Does anyone have comments concerning questions #1 and #2 of my first post?
