OK solved - yeah it was a doddle, just adding b43 to the modules list - DOH!

Hi guys (and gals) got what is hopefully a simple problem.
Set up my father in laws old laptop (Acer 3630) with 12.04 and everything was working fine until the other day when he lost his wireless...

Oops, just realised I had deleted the original from my DB account.

Just a little bump, as I still have the issue.

Gave it a shot, but sadly no dice. Have even restored everything to default theme wise using MyUnity.

Thanks for the shout anyway

So after messing about with Compiz and Gnome shell themes a little too much I seem to have made a little mess of things. As you can see from the screeny I have managed to lose the text from menu's,...

Sound can be enabled with a small kernel hack.

this depends what version of Ubuntu you are using, if you have install 11.10 (latest version) then you want to download the version for the 3.X kernel. I believe it is V1.01.1014.

Thats because the driver has been updated for the 3.x kernel family. To fix the Y axis, you need to edit the .ini file located in /etc/ in it option number 8 is set to 0 by default, changing this to...

Sorry, mis-read the original post, didn't see the 'x'ubuntu.

A simpler way to get the same result if to install the jupiter package. I have it on my Dell Duo and it works a treat.

Can anyone help me locate the config files for the OnBoard screen keyboard. i have deleted every mention of it, and every folder named after it I can find. I have tried to delete/purge it and then...

I realise that its not as simple as dropping the kernel module from Android into Ubuntu, and I also note that on the accelerometer thread you asked for the module sources.
...

I don't know if this will help anyone with the accelerometer, but the Duo uses the same chip as the HP Touchpad, and the guys over at CyanogenMod have got it working on CM7. I don't really know much...

Look in your app list for an app called nvidia-settings, if its not there type this onto a terminal

sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings

once installed, run it, and see if you can enable the...

Yeah, your adding an additional software source, or repository (Repo for short). Open a terminal, then type this


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
sudo apt-get update
sudo...

First the keys again, I cant remember not have to add public keys in software sources.

On the other point, have they updated their PPA to include Oneiric yet? When you run 'sudo apt-get update' do...

Its really down to personal choice, but if you are planning to learn about Ubuntu rather than just using it, I would recommend that you do take a little time out to learn one non GUI text editor. You...

I guess your using Unity, to get the menu click the top left icon on the bar.

I guess the first question is are the packages available to install ?

If so, and they are visible in synaptic, I don't think you really have anything to worry about.Regarding the public key, they...

TBH the Nvidia drivers in the repo's are really quite old. The latest versions can be downloaded from here

I have found that once you turn wireless back on using the keyboard you then have to re-enable it in Network-Manager. Either by right clicking the icon (pre-11.10) or just clicking it and selecting...

Been trying to follow through this thread, but it covers a lot of time, versions of Ubuntu, and pages. Got a Duo a week or so ago, and I am enjoying the fun factor this little netbook brings. I wiped...

Sorry mate,forgot to mention you need to select the ISo file, unless its in a default directory.

No problem, hope it works for you
