I have never tried updating a BIOS (UEFI) before. The BIOS version number is 0705. This appears to be the correct page, but what do I need? I don't see any dates on the downloadable files / utilities...
Thanks for the quick reply. No, the drive doesn't show up in the UEFI. I have tried plugging the drive into different SATA 3 ports, but that hasn't helped. The UEFI settings have all six of the SATA...
I just purchased a WD Desktop Black 4TB hard disc (SATA 6Gb/s (SATA 3.0), 64MB Cache, 7200RPM, 3.5", Dual processor). I have installed it in my home built tower computer. I can use the cable for the...
Thanks for all of the suggestions. Now that I have had some time to work with them myself, I consider Komodo Edit to be the best text editor to use for building a web site. Komodo Edit, like Aptana...
I installed Peppermint Four (Ubuntu derivative) on the Vostro yesterday. So far, so good. Salix64 XFCE 14.0 also works very well. My advice is to go with a lighter weight distro, and stay away from...
I have problems with the GPU hanging on my new Dell Vostro 3350 laptop with Ubuntu 12.10. I believe that the GPU is hybrid AMD / Intel as per other postings on trying to get the AMD proprietary...
I have been trying to install Aptana Studio by following the instructions in the book "Aptana Studio Beginner's Guide":

I am interested in getting some sort of Linux running (in lieu of an Ubuntu phone :) ) on a mobile/smart phone, so that I can run some of my favorite cli apps. There are two alternatives as I see it:...
I have been playing around with the Salix OS Ratpoison edition and have grown accustomed to being able to use "Ctrl-t e", "Ctrl-t Ctrl-t", "Ctrl-t w" and "Ctrl-t k" for displaying, moving and...
In my experience, it doesn't matter if Fn + F7 is pressed before or after logging in, the trackpad will still enable. I find it extremely irritating however, to have to do that everytime I startup my...
I have added the following to my .bashrc to start when I open a terminal:
[[ $TERM != "screen" ]] && exec tmuxI would like to have tmux start with the equivalent of "C-b %" (in my case "C-a %" as I...
I was lucky enough to be able to solve this by uninstalling everything including configuration files, and then reinstalling using the following:
sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install cmus
I just installed cmus after a Lubuntu 12.04 install and now my wireless refuses to work. There is a bug here in connection with cmus. I tried to just install dnet-common, without actually...
I am looking for an alternative to Dreamweaver. I need to use the alternative for managing / editing WordPress sites. I have been looking at Aptana Studio 3, but it seems like the documentation is a...
I have been on another forum, trying to sort out the Windows 7 side of things. When I tried another round of "startup repair", I ran diskpart and made sure that partition "1" on disk "1" (sdb) was...
I am running chkdsk at this moment. I can try to see if Windows will boot if I change the BIOS to boot from sdb first, but I am at this point assuming that the boot loader was installed to sda as I...
Weelll, bootrec.exe /fixmbr definately cleared the MBR, but bootrec.exe /fixboot returns "element not found".
Could this have something to do with Ubuntu erasing a "hidden" 100 MB partition that...
I have run the "startup repair" option six times for Windows 7, but Grub still does not recognize a Windows system on /dev/sdb when I update Grub. Should I turn the boot flag on /dev/sdb "off" again?...
Thanks for the quick reply. I have two TB-Western WD1002FAEX Black-7200RPM-SATA-III-64M drives. They are MBR drives. I have had various Linux distros installed on them before. Despite my mobo having...
I have just installed Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit as dual boot with Windows 7 on my home built desktop computer. I have an Asus Sabertooth 990FX mobo, which has a UEFI bios. Windows 7 is installed on...
I am unable to get Lubuntu 12.04 to recognize the built-in Bluetooth adapter on my Acer Aspire One 725, and am therefore unable to pair the Bluetooth mouse with my laptop. When I try, I get a "no...
A restart after installing pulse audio seems to have solved the problem, although I have to set the output to 140% to get what I would consider a normal sound output.
I have been fiddling around trying to get the sound to work on a Lubuntu 12.04 install on my Acer Aspire One 725, but I am only able to get the sound up to a whisper. Does this have something to do...
