Hi, this may be recurring, but I decided to put my questions on a new thread, instead of looking in various threads:

it is bug #774089 in launchpad, that when installing natty the first three boot attempts failed, and only the forth or fifth boot would be successful, every time you shut down or restart. It was...
Thank you pounsg, are you able to connect to wireless N networks with oneiric on the mbp 6,2?
Thank you darkvad0r,
I just want to be sure, if someone can tell me if upgrading from Maverick to Natty 64 bits wont corrupt firmware either, it seems like Oneiric is working better with this mbp...
Well, I have maverick 64 bits and display brightness works well, I only followed the instructions in the mactel wiki and nothing more.
As for natty, did you do a clean install or upgraded from...
Hi, I am asking the same question. Since the natty guide says our macbookpro 6,2 is partially compatible, I have not upgraded, but the guide only guides through clean install, it does not say...
Hi. Well, I did not have any problems with wifi. Just installed the propietary drivers as told in the ubuntu mactel documentation. You should check in the propietary drivers if the Broadcom drivers...
well, the macfanctld settings are to keep an average of 45 to 55 degrees, and the cpu and gpu temperature sensors in the range of 50 to 58 degrees.
Simply editing the macfanctld.conf file to lower...
Hi.
Sorry for the delay :(
Here is the output of the diagnostics script:

Hi.
I also have the macbookpro 6,2 and followed all the instructions of the documentation and brightness control works, using F1 and F2.
What does not work in my case, is the automatic dimming of...

I have tried muting the speakers but the noise still is there.
That small instant where the system is physically powering off (not the linux shut down) where the speakers make a very...
I myself am also thankful for the instructions, as I have already posted, I'm also printing wirelessly in my Ubuntu 10.10 64bit.
Has anyone have any success installing scangearmp to ubuntu 10.10...
Hi. Thank you very much.
I followed the instructions and my printer is working ok wirelessly in my ubuntu 10.10 64bit.
However, the scanner installs, but when I try to run scangear, it outputs...
About Simple Scan not finding the scanner: look in the GIMP. The Canon Scangear installs in the GIMP, when it was standard in 9.04.
Please tell me if this works, if it does, I will install it in my...
yes, sorry. In fact, I did yesterday before I applied the fix for plymouth.
Anyway I tried and it works ok. Thank you. Also, I reconfigured the hddtemp to run as a daemon and now the sensors applet...
Does your Macbook pro 5,1 have integrated and discrete graphics as the 6,2 has?
(just to make sure ;) )
thank you for taking the time to answer all the questions.
I'll try the plymouth fix and come back if something happens. The text plymouth is uglier than the low resolution ubuntu logo that appeared...
to bump this thread, I will anwer my own question number 2. I found that the macfanctl has a manual page (man macfanctl) in which the author has put useful information for tweaking the settings of...
Hi.
I have recently installed Ubuntu Maverick 10.10 in my macbookpro 6,2 (15 inch i5). (OS X is ok, but I like Ubuntu very much, besides, being used to Ubuntu, I found some OS X peculiarities very...
Did you stop X before installing the drivers?
I did not have to change init or anything. Just stop gdm and execute the .run package downloaded from nvidia.
if you do, just make sure you read this guides first:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedDrivers/NVIDIAOfficial?highlight=%28restricted%29
and...
Perhaps you are right, but in my case, since it is my first time I install Ubuntu (and I didn't expect it to fail for what I have read in the internet about this distribution), I went to Ubuntu's...
thank you, I have just posted 'my experience' with this bug. :)
(For what I went thru, I would suggest first, if you have an internet connection, then let ubuntu upgrade, if not, go to packages.ubuntu.com and find the nvidia-glx restricted drivers, download them,...
