Hey all. I've been doing some research on operating systems of the past and in reading about the NeXTSTEP operating system I stumbled upon the Shelf interface feature. As I understand it, it's...
Ah-ha!
Thank you, thank you! Solved indeed.
I've been trying out the Natty release, getting used to Unity customization and what have you. So far I've been able to figure out how to use mouse gestures to bring up the window selector (I believe...
I have solved this problem. Apparently if the disk is improperly unmounted (whatever that means?) Linux will mount the file system as read-only until it has been error checked. I installed...
I've been having some system failures so I'm trying to back up data to an external USB hard drive before I reinstall and such. I've trying to move data from multiple internal HDDs to the one external...
lol Alright, I'll try to help you as best I can. One of the things you can try is burning the ISO at a lower speed (like 4x or maybe 8x).
Also, it's always good to ask, are you burning the ISO as...
UPDATE!
I changed the boot order so that the SATA drive (Lubuntu 10.04 install) is the second boot device after the CD device and that brought me back to the grub 2 boot menu so I am back to being...
I installed it onto a different physical disk than the Lubuntu 10.04 or the Ubuntu 8.10 so I'm certain Windows XP didn't delete Lubuntu or Ubuntu. I am in the Ubuntu 8.10 install right now, as that...
I've had Ubuntu 8.10 and Lubuntu 10.04 running along side each other and recently decided to add an XP partition into the mix.
I loaded the Windows XP installer from a boot CD and the install...
I have been running flavors of Ubuntu on my desktop for some time now which has been amazing and I love every bit of it. Like many PC users I miss some games that are unplayable in Ubuntu so I'm...
I've had good enough experience with ATI cards in laptops working, especially in Ubuntu.
Older ATI cards however are a craps shoot. I've got an X850XT AGP that hasn't worked since Ubuntu 8.10 (the...
I guess I'll add that I am currently running Lubuntu 10.04 and am experiencing the problems whether it's Ubuntu or Lubuntu. I don't know if I needed to mention this as well, but all video whether a...
I have basically had this problem since 9.04 and above. I believe it stems from ATI no longer providing legacy linux drivers for older cards, though most people online seem to have no problem with...
I have the same problem when I try to install Wine.
"The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources."
If this a BIOS problem with the Vostro 1520 only or are you saying the same BIOS/driver issue plagues the Inspiron mini v10?
It's not so much team Ubuntu's fault as it's Broadcoms. The driver they've released for linux just plain doesn't work for many of the different 43xx models, particularly the latest and earliest...
Seems to be a lot of activity on the forum and the servers in general.
I've disabled all wireless security and still can't get a stable connection on the wireless.
I suppose I could try...
I have, I believe that's the STA driver that it loads? It appears to work fine, until the card actually starts handling traffic in which case it slows down to a halt and then drops the connection to...
I've got a Dell Inspiron mini 10 that has the Broadcom 4322 wireless chipset in it. I have NEVER gotten this thing to work satisfactorily despite the numerous tutorials online about getting this...
I've managed to get everything limping along. Ethernet is working like a charm, pulling down as fast as the DSL can dish it. The wireless on the other hand is performing sub-par. After removing and...
I believe the wireless chip being used is the BCM 4322 (PCI-ID 0x432B) and according to linuxwireless.org is unsupported. Bummer.
As for the wired being able to ping everything but not load any...
I can indeed ping the modem, google.com, as well as the IP address.
I'm sorry that I do not know how to make that look better.

I recently installed Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 on a Dell Inspiron Mini. I'm having trouble getting any sort of networking working on the system, however. I can access my router and DSL modem through...
