I just got a Yoga 3 14. I like the computer over all, but I have a few annoying glitches that I'm having a hard time solving. I get random sticky keys and key drops. Sometimes they seem to come as...

I am also trying to install Ubuntu on a Yoga 3 14" with the same wireless device. Did anyone find a solution to this?

Thanks for the reply peter. I had found many hits mentioning the rfkill list solution. On my machine, the results of rfkill list are variable. Sometimes it lists a "yes" on one or both of the values,...

I updated my Yoga 13 to Ubuntu 14.04 and now I can't get bluetooth to work. The install from https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723au_bt says that it installed successfully, but bluetooth still does not...

I'm having some trouble installing PGL on Ubuntu 14.04. I used the PPA, but the last step gives this error:


find: `/home/*/.config/pgl/': No such file or directory

Has anyone seen this, or...

Hi all. I've got an annoyance with 14.04. It will not suspend properly. I think there might be 2 bugs at play in this.

It does not suspend when the lid is shut. There is some indication that it's...

Has anyone tried 14.04 on the Yoga? I believe it's scheduled for official release on the 17th. I'm curious if the wireless card is handled out of the box in ubuntu 14.04.

Hi Tumerictj,

I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 on a Yoga 13 I received for Christmas. I never had any issues with wifi or repeating keys. Reading the thread it sounds like the WIFI issue was fixed with a...

I spent some time and got screen rotation functioning with scripts, following post 104 by mehanzhi (Thank you!). It took me a while to sort out the dependencies. I thought that I would post them in...

I need some help and advice. I have been beating my head on this problem for months and can't seem to find a solution.

Here's the situation. I have an ubuntu machine that is doubling as a sort of...

Me too. I was sure it would, and that swapping out routers would not be an issue.



No, i'm not sure. How do I check this? Why would the settings on the client computers change when the router...

Hmmm... But why would it work with the old router and not with the new?

How do I update dhclient? The machine is up-to-date with the automatic updates. Do I need to do something different for...

@goodvikings: I assume I do this on the host machine? I can't get it to work. The lines already in the "hosts" file were the other way around so I followed that syntax. When I restarted networking it...

It's the same but with ".local" at the end.

If I ping hostname.local, I get "Could not resolve hostname: Name of service not known"

It was my thought as well that the DNS function was either...

Here's the rub: My wireless router died. I replaced it with Netgear (model wndr3400). After switching out the router, I can no longer access my little home media server by name. I can still access it...

Thanks! Worked a champ!

Yep. I want to restore files and folders back to the original.

I've considered using rsync and I might switch in the future. For now, I'm still setting up the system and there are many large...

I'm not near the machine at the moment. I can try that later and report the results.

I could be wrong but I think that dd (backend to the gparted copy/past) is much quicker than rsync. Rsync does a file level copy and can be very efficient at keeping files in sync. dd does a block...

I have not. The machine also duals as a media player. It's under the tv and does not have a keyboard just a remote control. I can hook a keyboard up and try that but I would like to have a system...

I'm setting up a home server. My plan is to clone the HD once a week and take it off site. My simple solution was to plug in an external, and copy/paste the data partition from the internal to the...

Thanks for the response. Do you mean without calling gnome-terminal? Something like this?


#! /bin/bash

for var in "$@"
do
dvd2dvdmpeg.sh '$var'
done

I'm hoping for some bash help here. I keep getting: "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal."

Here's the background. I have a stack of DV tapes full of home video I am...

I have several questions about the update.

1. I have been using peerguardian as a kiddie control service. It starts at system boot, blocks all internet activity except what I white list and the...

I can't figure out how to run a script with a launcher. Simple test scripts work just fine, but this one doesn't. The script file contains:
