I thought this configuration would be more common by now.

I know it wouldn't be on laptops but on desktops, I thought there would be more installs of this type.

Does anyone do this?

I've...

OP, did you disable compiz and desktop effects?

Poster #2, what versions are you using? What version of Catalyst?

Sounds like something is not fully or properly installed.

You might...

I meant the custom cooling is more expensive.

But, the H80 doesn't look that bad. I'm not sure what stats you are talking about but what I found is that it's only a few degrees more than the...

Those are old architectures though just so the OP knows. Also, the Lenovos, imho, are basically the same unless you go with an actual Thinkpad so I suggested a newer model with the updated sandy...

I hope I helped.

Why not just get a liquid cooler? Like the H80 or something like that? Way easier, imho. No worries about some tall air cooler obstructing things. I currently have a...

How come you chose that wireless card? Just curious.

I'm not sure what you were discussing with regards to virtualization but after researching vt-x and vt-d, I concluded I'd want either an...

I'd compromise on the numeric keypad. Less choices otherwise.

From your restrictions/request, I'd suggest:

Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E420

Toshiba Satellite C650-001

Both have the i3-2310M...

I'm wondering if you're having trouble with your cards and/or satisfied with certain aspects.

Especially video quality.... its there any issues like tearing or anything else?

I believe there's...

Check the Phoronix forum, too. There's a section for ATI fglrx and ATI open source drivers there. Many are very knowledgeable there.

I would upgrade the kernel to at least 2.6.38, also.

How do you 'log out' of the CUPs interface (http://localhost:631/)?????!?

What if you upgrade CUPS and it's not logging out?

It's showing 1.4.2 even though it's upgraded!

Also, another...

Geez, doesn't Canon have satisfactory drivers yet? :-(

Anyway, OP, I would look at printers in your area at your budget and choose a HP inkjet. Try to get one that is listed on the HP website as...

What are the options for getting sleep to work...

Just wanted to answer this.

I installed Lubuntu on my laptop so the 'power settings' is set up differently than Ubuntu/Gnome. I couldn't find anything except in 'Screensaver.' There's a...

I think some of you guys are going to extra trouble and don't need ndiswrapper.

Owners of laptops/computers with the Broadcom BCM4312 chips, you just need the -wl drivers.

See this page:

Well, I would have replaced it if I could but it's an *integrated* wifi card.

So, one is stuck with it unless you want to do some fancy soldering. ;)

Anyway, it's currently working for me...

I have an 'unrelated' (?) issue now which I am not suprised... is there a thread for sleep/hiberate issues? :)

At least, my wireless still works...

But, I have to reboot the entire machine. ...

I replied already in that other thread! But, I want to thank you and the rest for replying to the thread and trying to help me!

I really appreciate it!!!! ;)

My wifi card is currently working...

Thanks, Zander! That page looks interesting and the latest discussion is also intriguing. However, I have an update that is puzzling and peculiar. ;)

I'll try to be brief as I want to update my...

Pet peeve here!

Why doesn't Ubuntu and others give the user who is trying the live cd or dvd out the login info?!?

If someone is just trying it out and you have to log in or become root, unless...

As far as I'm concerned there is NO solution for BCM4813 cards.

After mucking around and countless googling, no 'solutions' have worked for the bcm4318 card in the laptop I was using.

i tried that... Same output!

Update: installing doesn't help. I could have kept using the Live ver. via the usb stick.

However, I have something showing now for dmesg regarding the firmware. Hopefully, someone can...

Well, that looks like a very old 'solution' but first, I am going to try an actual install and the other idea I had is that the 'wl' "stuff" is causing a problem/conflict?

So, in that effect, the...

Interesting page but those instructions are useless.
