Thanks Axxter. :)

I had mic issues with older dists.

I solved them by either:

1. Switching the device (in the sounds properties menu) to 'Line'

or

Bumpedy bump.....

Does anyone know if it's worth installing Desktop Edition? The battery issue is very annoying.

-update-

I've found that disconnecting the battery for a few seconds, and then turning the laptop back on causes the 'Critical Temp. Reached' message to not display.

Once on, the laptop just...

Hi all, I'm having the same issues with 10.04 NBR on my HP Mini 1030NR :(

The battery shows as discharging from around 5%.... which isn't accurate. The computer will suspend even though the...

Well, in the Power Management dialogue box, the screen (not the computer) is set to be 'put to sleep' after 30 mins, or when the lid is closed. When this happens (on AC and battery) connectivity...

Hello all,

It has come to my attention that if my laptop's screen (not the computer itself) is put to sleep, then connectivity stops until it is woken up again.

This is very annoying!

Any...

I've just tried to run the latest standard Ubuntu release (Lucid) from a live USB - and the same problem occurs, so it isn't a UNR issue.

Any takers or suggestions at this point would be ..... I'm...

I'm still something of a new person in this world, however, this is similar to a problem I had with a different card after trying to get things to work.

I found that I'd managed to tell the...

<<Bump!>>

I notice that in the above code, the dongle is saying that there are "no IPv6 routers present"

Not sure if it's set to only look for these... or even the exact nature of v6 and v4.......

Hi Everyone, having some frustrating issues getting the WG111v2 usb dongle to work with Karmic NBR. Using an HP mini 1030NR.

I have tried Wicd, Ndiswrapper (with various drivers) and the native...

Okay!

Next problem?

I think I've killed the dongle!

Now when I plug it in, there is no light, and it's not detected by Wicd, network manager or iwconfig. :O

It does show up as connected...

Bump Bump!!

So - Not being able to solve the DHCP issues, I've tried installing windows drivers using Ndiswrapper. This makes no difference! The same DHCP problem remains..... but my other...

Well, thanks for the link. I tried commenting out the "rfc3442" lines as suggested in the other thread, but to no avail. I still get the same output for the dhclient command. :(

My internal card...

Thanks bkratz.

Incidentally, I now have both the dongle and my internal card running, as wlan0 and eth1 respectively. Previously I had blacklisted one or the other, but with no discernible...

Lambengoimor: I installed Wicd - it didn't change anything, but does have more options than the network manager. :)

Swagman: Well.... as you say, it 'just works' for me too, only nothing will...

Well, I can connect to the network -(Network manager reports a connection, and displays the mac address, ips etc.) however, I am unable to download any information. Firefox reports "connecting to...

Hi there, I too am having issues with this damned dongle....

Using Karmic NBR on an HP mini (1030NR)

Karmic recognises the WG111v2, and uses its native driver, rtl8187.

The dongle's light...

Further to this, I've now checked the same two access points with Windows, and the same problem presents itself.

I'm wondering if it could be some sort of Japanese networking thing?

And help...

Hi folks... I've got a nice copy of Jaunty running a treat on an HPmini1030NR. Everything seems fine, but I can't test the wireless, as my home connection is wired. The local McDonald's here in Japan...

Yep, I tried pointing Unetbootin at the net based installer (Xubuntu 8.04) and it went off without a hitch....

Perhaps the graphical installer and Toshiba have an issue?

I don't know, but I'm...

I'm trying to install using Unetbootin, through the existing installation of XP.

First installed Unetbootin on the single drive (it wasn't partitioned, as it's only 20Gb) that didn't work, so I ...

Hello peeps,

I've been given an old Toshiba Satellite 1410 laptop, which has only 256Mb of ram, a 20Gb hd, and a dead CD drive. I want to put Xubuntu on there for a friend. Even with the latest...
