Hi, I'll do what I can.
1. I don't know whether it supports HTML5, but it doesn't have Flash support yet- promised this summer, don't hold your breath.
2. The Mobile Hotspot is a great thing if...

That's a great deal for the price, and you'll be able to use your phones as a hotspot wherever you go. Think of a long highway drive- your phone will be the wireless connection, and other people can...

Actually, I don't think this is a problem with PA; I had this issue pop up suddenly on me in Jaunty, and this fix from Psyke83 put it back in shape in a jiffy:




$ alsamixer -Dhw

Somehow,...

Hi! I had no problem syncing my Pre using Rhythmbox. A couple of caveats, though:
1. I don't use iTunes in any form, shape, or fashion. I have heard that some folks have had trouble syncing if...

I've now had the Pre for two days; I bought it the same day they dropped the price on it. I've also gotten up close and personal with the iPod Touch, which I had bought for my wife the week before...

Thanks, Conan, I am happy to report this worked for me right off the bat. I've followed the discussion on the Launchpad site, and I'll wait a bit before adding any lines to my bluetooth file. For...

I agree with y'all, and I don't use even half of the features that you seem to be using. I just use my whole music folder as a playlist and in 2.0, you can't do that. It has like this weird list of...

Hi guys,

I was having problems with this as well, and I figured out that it is in the repos in Intrepid (and, I believe, in earlier iterations as well). I felt pretty dumb when I just looked it...

My Compaq Presario V2000 has that same problem, though it seems to work sometimes. I'm gonna look at it real close tomorrow and see what I can find in the logs. It seems like the HAL (Hardware...

...You walk into a Best Buy and say, "I could totally pwn you guys."
...You forget your wife's bday, but are up at 5 am checking the mirrors on Distribution Release Day.

Hey, I have the same computer model as you, and I must say, going from Edgy to Gutsy via command-line was a disaster for me. Since then, I have learned my lesson, and always do a clean install from...

Hey Compwiz,

Do you think you could make an updated version for Hardy? I just upgraded to the beta and I've been using your script now since Dapper. I look forward to using it again, but there...

Thanks, Compwiz. I have been using some form of your excellent script ever since Dapper, and I am glad to see it works perfectly in Gutsy. I used Option 1 when I first installed Gutsy, but I was...

Dyssident, I love you. I really, really love you. I've been trying to share files across my local wireless network (ubiquitous Linksys router) for the longest, and it seemed like I was never going...

Is that a PCMCIA card that you plug in to the computer (not one that came preinstalled)? It cost like $35, right? IF SO (and that's a big 'if'), you might try doing what I did. I reinstalled Edgy...

Problem solved.
I've been beating my brains out trying to figure out wireless on Edgy for my 64-bit Turion Compaq notebook for the longest time. All the time, trouble, and frustration have been...

Compwiz,
I tried that, but without what one could call 'success'. (a line from one of the Terry Tate commercials)

Here is the output of the most recent adventure.

Log of echo Script version:...

Thanks, Kilz. Worked like a charm on my Compaq Presario V2000. Now if only I could get my wireless working in Edgy, I'd be so happy my feet wouldn't even touch the ground.](*,)

Damn, I'm a sucker. I keep coming back to this because I want FF 2.0 and the newer OOo, and don't want the incredible PITA that is upgrading from Dapper, so here I am with Edgy again. I tried the...

Ahh, I give up. I was happy with getting Korean IM working first, but now it looks like I'll have to reinstall Edgy and try getting this going first. At least now I'm practically an expert on...

I ran the commands, and the terminal stated that they were already the newest versions, and did not install. I did a sudo apt-get remove on what was there, reinstalled per your instructions above,...

More foolishness:


heresjohnny@heresjohnny-laptop:~$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.

Compwiz- I believe I'm having the same problem, so I am posting my log files for /etc/modules and /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist below. Maybe it can help? Networking still doesn't see my wireless card....

Hello all, here is the output of lspci command:

Hello Compwiz18,
Okay, I finally got over being 'skeered' and installed the 64-bit kernel you provided in your reply. It installed no problem, but I think I may have a problem with previous...
