I was able to get in the grub menu by hammering on esc. Not sure what do do now though. I kind of assumed in was something with my video drivers, but the Xorg.0.log looks "normal".
I recently did a clean install of 11.10 on my Asus laptop. I got it all all my software installed and the catalyst drivers. I then did an update (there were about 260 packages that needed updating...
If I reinstall into the same partition without reformatting, with the /home directory be preserved?
Sorry, it is a Princeton Graphics 17" LCD Monitor. Detects correctly in the edubuntu Live.
I tried the Ctrl-Alt-F1, and it doesn't do anything (it does work in the live cd however).
Also Ctrl-Alt-+ and Ctrl-Alt-- doesn't work either.
I am using an nForce 7025 onboard chipset...
I thought that I could copy the xorg.conf that the live cd uses to the hard drive. However, there is no xorg.conf in /etc/X11. I read somewhere that Ubuntu no longer uses this file?
I installed edubuntu 11.04 a couple months ago on the kids computer. Everytime we would boot up, we received the signal out of range during the entire boot sequence. However once the login screen...
No solution for not being able to accept the EULA?
Well, I plugged the ubuntu laptop in to a cable, instead of using the wireless card, and now I can connect to it.
Is there different security on the wireless connection vs the wired?
Nope, I really don't think that is the issue. We live in the country...someone would have to park in our driveway to do it. The more likely scenario is that it is a crappy router...it is a...
I got sidetracked with other things, and didn't get to try this until just now.
However, it still doesn't work. I'm not sure if I mentioned it earlier, but the Vista machine can connect to a...
I'll try this when I get home. I did also have a W2K laptop, that could not see the ubuntu machine.
I didn't have AV on, I turned off the firewall and windows defender, still getting the same response.
And yes, the machine that I was pinging from was 192.168.0.5.
What's the next thing to...
Rootkit checks...
Rootkits checked : 113
Possible rootkits: 0
I got a couple warnings, mostly about commands being replaced with scripts. (ldd, groups, which, lwp-request, adduser). ...
Any other ideas? How could I check that out?
I turned the firewall off on the vista machine. This is what I see when I try to ping the ubuntu machine:
Pinging 192.168.0.4 with 32 bytes of data:

I can't ping the ubuntu machine either.
I have a web server and network share set up on my Unbuntu 9.04 laptop. I can not ping, or connect to the share or the web server from another laptop (Vista) on the LAN.
I can ping and connect to...
How is this laptop working out for you? Any other driver issues with Ubuntu?
I am very close to buying the D1 version (just a T9600 instead of T9550), and will be running Ubuntu as my primary OS....
So I noticed that if I log out, and log back in, the background changes also. However, it does not change "on the fly".
No one knows why this script does not work from cron?
I wrote a perl script that loops through my bg directory and randomly pics an image. It then calls:
gconftool-2 --type=string --set /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename...
For whatever reason my external usb drive seems to unmount itself occasionally. If I unplug it and replug it in it will remount. However, my computer is in a different room, and accessing the the...
I tried that and it didn't work. This is mostly a single user machine, so the .mozilla option will work, but if someone suggests a beter, system-wide location I'd give it a shot.
