Thanks, but I have done all of this. I have even tried installing Windows using bootcamp (it didn't work either)
To re-iterate, I'm not looking for help on doing a standard installation method on...

Hey Guys,

Edit*: I want to stress that I have installed rEFIt and done all of the usual steps. I am pretty sure this is an error and not just my fault since I was able to do it effortlessly in the...

I've tried all of this with no success.

To clarify: It's not that refit doesn't recognize the linux installation disk, it's that once I chose the linux installation icon it just hangs there...

Thanks entangled I will try that.

Update:

The problem mysteriously fixed itself. However I ran into boot loading trouble and now I need to reinstall it, and then it stopped working again!

I'm not even looking for a definitive answer. If anyone has any ideas about where the problem is (Boot partition, EFI, something I'm totally unaware of, etc), that would be helpful. I'm just...

Hey Guys,
Okay so I'm having a very strange problem.

When I first installed Ubuntu (10.04), I could not get sound to come out of the built in speakers. Sound did work on external...

I feel stupid that the exact guide I needed was already out there and I couldn't find it. Thank you so much, I really hope this works, I am getting desperate

Thanks but I tried this and it only listed the linux partition.

So i have an intel mac that runs ubuntu 10.04 only. Recently I was tinkering with my sound system and to make a long story short alsa no longer recognizes my sound card. After trying everything I...

I have already searched through many threads and guides so this is my last resort

I have an imac and i recently decided to dual boot Ubuntu as well.
The sound is fine on the mac partition but the internal speakers dont work on the Ubuntu side.
headphones do work but the volume...

hmmm
the sound still doesnt work
and if I boot in the .22 version (the updated one), the networks card that I worked so hard to get running is not functional again, and nothing but the lowest...

I am having the same exact problem except all I have is the speakers built into my mac
