Here's how to get to the fan: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1855246&p=11314574#post11314574

I found a disassembly guide a while ago, but it's a 2.6MB PDF and ubuntuforums won't let me...

Some coworkers are using a tool called 'disper' with the nVidia graphics cards in their laptops. They say it works well with multiple different display setups (laptop-only, docked+monitor,...

isantop is System76's representative in these forums :guitar:

I tried to find something to that effect at system76.com, but couldn't, so you'll just have to take my word for it (or his, or look at...

Thanks for the help. I got the keyboard off and blew the fan out as thoroughly as I could but no additional dust came out. The computer is still making a lot of noise, though. Do you have any...

Our Lemur 2 started making a lot of noise, like a clogged fan or a failing hard drive, a couple days ago. I tried blowing out the fan with compressed air through the rear vent, but it didn't help. ...

You might have better luck posting in a more general forum, since it could be a couple days before the System 76 folks start to respond. Also, from a Virtual Terminal I'd check the file...

Have you tried (if you can make one) using an Ubuntu Live USB? Since it happened so quickly after an update on Testing, I'd be suspicious that it's a software issue; using an Ubuntu Live USB could...

ctrl-alt-t should also open a Terminal.

What are the current permissions on /etc/var/www? You could see them with 'ls -al' (e.g. "ls -al /etc/var/www" and look at the permissions and owner for...

System76 does have a mailing list. I think you'll need to create an account at system76.com to sign up for it. From one of their emails:



I haven't kept all the emails I've received from that...

You should read http://knowledge76.com/index.php/System76_Driver which is System76's own page about the System76 Driver. The pre-installed version of Ubuntu just adds System76's current partitioning...

I have a panv3, and it is a Compal FL-91. I pulled out a lot of dust and cat hair a few times from around the fan; if there are pets around or just a lot of dust, it could certainly build up in...

So, what that shows is two main partitions: a 34GB "HPFS/NTFS" partition (your Windows partition) and then a "W95 Ext'd (LBA)" partition. That second partition holds 3 partitions itself, another...

Can you go into terminal and issue the command:
sudo fdisk -l and post its output? That will display the partition table for your hard drive, so we can see where the missing space has gone (since...

And that map: wow! That's a lot of green! Congratulations on your expanded shipping.

I'm running Debian Squeeze (Stable) on a non-System76 laptop (an "MS-1656") but it has a full numeric keypad. Here's a table of how the Home key behaves for me, using the 'xev' utility (Applications...

Not a bother at all!! I was just hoping to provide a friendly pointer to where your questions would be noticed by the most knowledgeable people :) Hope my answers helped a little.

Hooray! :guitar:



No, the difference is in some of the packages that get installed. For example, you could issue the command
dpkg -l | grep laptop and choose to uninstall any that show up,...

I have a lemu2, and I'm not positive this is the right manual, but it worked for me to get at the WiFi card (which is next to or above the RAM):...

We've run Debian on a pair of older (2-3 years old) System76 laptops, though not a Starling, with no real issues at all. Haven't done much dual-booting, though.

What System76 adds is their driver...

You might be interested in Rockbox. It supports FLAC and OGG and my SanDisk Sansa Fuze player turns on and starts playing much faster with Rockbox than with the original firmware.

Be aware that...

Here is what I did after I saved the file. As you can see, it only contains a short text file; you could apply that registry change yourself if you wanted (I have no idea what it actually does, but...

I managed to lift the hinge and fit that protruding tab back into a slot that seemed designed to hold the tab, but when I did that I saw that the hinge appeared to have broken in two (a metal piece...

During a road trip this weekend, our Gazelle (gazv5) got banged around a little in its suitcase. Yesterday it was creaking a little whenever it was opened or closed, and today one of the hinges...

I think I have the same problem. I have to re-enable Compiz after every boot (right-click on the Desktop, Change Desktop Background, Visual Effects tab, Extra). I only reboot about once a week on...

I don't have any advice for restoring your system, but if you do a clean install of 10.04, you should know that it is trivial to reinstall the System76 drivers! Go read...
