Thanks, all, for the help and suggestions.
I wound up reverting to "legacy" bios mode and reinstalling.
As you may have guessed, everything went smoothly and I now have a functional system.

I think the issue is actually with the Bios. I've done some looking and found many complaints that Gigabyte's UEFI implementation is questionable.
I have no option in bios to select anything other...

This is a brand new system so, no, I have no issue with reformat, reinstall.

I had already though about going back to "legacy" mode, but I'd like to understand why UEFI worked on this system once...

You might try using Jockey. https://launchpad.net/jockey
This looks like the replacement for EnvyNG. I haven't used Jockey, but used Envy on a couple of systems where other video driver install...

I believe OsLoader0000 is attempting to refer to Windows. I believe, when I installed as dual boot and everything worked out, somewhere along the way I...

No grub menu at all, no matter what I do, since I reinstalled Ubuntu and, subsequently, wiped everything out, reinstalled Windows, then reinstalled Ubuntu.



During Boot Repair I was prompted to...

Can you provide any more information about how the raring dvd helped you fix your problem?

My computer is EFI enabled.

I am trying to set up a dual boot with Windows 7. I have had this computer confugured in...

Excellent. That explains it. The AMD instructions tell you to do 'sudo startx' if the X Server doesn't start correctly. I did so, obviously not aware of the full implications.
Thanks for your...

Not to hijack the thread, but could this permission have been changed by installation of the AMD drivers and, if so, could that have been the cause of the failure of the drivers to work? When I...

I'm having the same issue. Mine started after installing AMD proprietary drivers, having them fail to work, then uninstalling. This was all done following the linked instructions on AMD's website. ...

I would like to mark this thread as [SOLVED], but don't seem to have that option in Thread Tools, even though I'm logged in.

Thanks for all the replies. I solved it by the following (most of which is in the above posts, but apparently is the one thing I hadn't yet tried)
The key is to install Windows, allowing it to use...

I've just put together a new computer that I want to dual boot 12.10 and Windows 7. This machine has a Gigabyte 78LMT-S2P motherboard, AMD video onboard, AMD CPU. My HDD is 500GB, so I'm not...

From terminal run:
gnome-desktop-item-edit --create-new ~/Desktop

This will open the Create Launcher dialog. If I've done it correctly, there should be an image of this dialog below.

I'll try to fix my terminology and better explain what I'm asking.
First, I did use the term "database" when I should have used "server".
I stopped the server for two reasons, both having to do...

Hi all. And thanks in advance for any help.
I have several devices that send data using RS-232. In Windows i use a program called WedgeLink to capture, parse, and pass the data on to my...

Thanks for the info.
Oddly enough, I had just found that on Mozilla's web site and disabled IPv6. I'm typing this in Firefox, so apparently it did the trick.

I ran into almost this exact problem a couple years ago. Try installing Gnome Commander and see if you can connect to the network share that way. When I had this issue, I found it to be a problem...

So, I may have this solved, but I don't know what was wrong. I installed Epiphany browser and it works fine. As if by magic, Firefox also seems to be working correctly now.
So, for what it's...

Bump.
Ideas anyone? I'm stumped. I've looked at every post I can find here, as well as google searches, but I've not made any progress.

Sounds like you may be having the same problem I am. Run terminal and:
ping -c 5 google.com

Please post result

Unfortunately, I've been there already. That's not it.
I did figure something else out, though.
Command line ping works, but the gui ping in Administration - Network Tools does not.

Hello all. I loaded 10.10 on my new laptop a couple of days ago. Until this morning everything was fine. Now, today, Firefox doesn't seem to be able to connect to the internet. My wireless...
