Recently I did a System Mechanics clean-up of invalid and other misc files. The files were moved to the recycle bin, but I couldn't open a file individually while it was in the recyle bin in order to double check whether or not I wanted to perminently delete it. I then selected all items and moved them to a single folder hoping to open it later to review the individual files.I don't know the folder name or what part of the computer this folder was moved to. Is there a way I can find this new folder, name unknown, that was created on 10-12-10? I'm sure it's taking up valuable space in my computer and I want to permently delete the unwanted items individually and not as a whole batch.

View 2 Replies View Relatedwhen we do enter on a folder it take some time for loading the folder depending on the no of entries in the folder . If the folder has more entries it take more time to load and if less no of entries then correspondingly less time . the delay in loading the folder varies due to reading of the folder entries in advance .

I then installed Chromium OS on my EeePC 1000HE with internet through a wired connection. All was great until I unplugged and realized that the wireless did not work. I have spent more hours than I am willing to admit at this point trying to get it to work. I found the drivers and firmware but would get messed up in the process with my little knowledge with installing them.I then installed Ubuntu on my netbook and the wireless worked just fine right after install. So now, I have a working copy of Ubuntu on one SD card and a copy of Chromium on another SD card without wireless capability.
My question:
Is there a way that I can copy the drivers and firmware folder from Ubuntu and put it into Chromium? I am familiar with navigating around at command prompt and mounting the USB drive that I would like to have the drivers and firmware folders copied to.I believe I know the location of both drivers and firmware, but since I am so new to this.Once those folders are copied into place, do I need to do anything else to get them to work?
I'm completely new to ubuntu and Linux for that matter, i have a TBS 6920 dvb stat car, but have no idea how to install the drivers, i have downloaded them nd had a look at the read me file and it mentions creating a directory in root/ but cant access the root folder for some reason or other, is there anyone who can help me?? also is it possible to install through terminal instead as that would be easier no?

My Ubuntu WAS working perfectly. I started to tweak with the eye candy. "Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (ccsm)." As I was reading some of the forums, I also thought I would give KDE a try and add it to my system. I was experimenting (so I don't know what exactly I was modifying) when at some point I noticed that in the upper right hand corner of my windows (where "minimize window, maximize window and close window buttons" exist), each time I went to click on the close window button, my system froze and I had to do a hard reboot. At that point, I uninstalled all things KDE. Still had the same issue. Then I uninstalled ccsm.
At this point, the maximize, minimize and close buttons were GONE!! I finally figured out, I had to RIGHT CLICK DESKTOP >> CHANGE DESKTOP BACKGROUND >>TAB TO VISUAL EFFECTS >> SELECT "NONE" This returned my system back to a useable state with the max, min and close buttons. Then I tried again to enable the effects, and suddenly my max, min, close buttons again disappeared. I also got a window that was searching for drivers. None could be found. I had to then turn effects off again.
After that, Ive been trying to completely uninstall and reinstall: drivers, KDE, ccsm, hardware drivers (jockey-gtk and jockey-kde). I tried installing each of them seperately, together, and in various combinations and now it seems like the more I try the worse it gets (before, it would search for drivers... now it just tells me "desktop effects could not be enabled" I know there is probably an easy fix to restoring my drivers... but I can't figure it out. It would be easy to just reinstall... but then I gotta go back to my IT person to add the network key at my work and redo all my settings. Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit on a Dell Inspiron 1420 laptop
I just installed Ubuntu today and when I go to Hardware Drivers it tells me that there are no proprietary drivers on this system and doesn't show any for me to activate. Oddly enough when I was running the live CD of Ubuntu I got a list of a few drivers to activate, namely the Broadcom STA Wireless Driver and the NVIDIA Accelerated Graphics Driver (version 185).
View 9 Replies View RelatedI just got a new Acer Aspire One notebook, and first thing I did was get RID of windows 7 starter crap, and put on Ubuntu 10.04. Everything runs smoothly and works well except one thing, Ubuntu doesn't seem to recognize I have a battery, it behave's like it would on a desktop. This is really bothering me as I need to know my battery life and whatnot. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? Im completely up to date, and I also tried booting up in the live version of 9.10 and it didnt recognize a battery either, i fear if i cant get this working I might need to use Win7 Starter...I was looking forward to Ubuntu.

Unfortunately I'm having trouble finding proper driver support for the ATI radeon x1200 as described by another poster:
You should still be able to get full 3D support for your hardware by downloading & installing the drivers manually.
This is where it gets complicated, unfortunately.
ATI dropped support for some "older" 3D devices some time back (actually not all that old in many cases - it made a lot of ATI card owners very upset). So I'm not sure which drivers you'd need to download & install to get your 3D hardware working.
The Radeon x1200 device in your notebook is, confusingly, not the same as a desktop Radeon x1200 card.
I am not sure if this is the correct forum but I trust the Administrators can move it if need be. I recently "Frankensteined" a computer together putting Ubuntu 10.10 as the OS. I have a ScanExpress S40 scanner and cannot find drivers for it nor does anything occur when I plug it into the computer. where I can find a generic driver that work.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a CanonMP280 printer and Ubuntu 10.10. Mp280 is not recognized by Ubuntu 10.10. Through 'cybertechhelp' I was very lucky to get the printing drivers to install. So the printer works.
No-one seems to be able to find the 'scanner' drivers and Canon_help is useless. So I must dual-boot with Windows to be able to scan.
Although win7 is a vast improvement on vista. I would much prefer to single-boot with Ubuntu. I tried other Ubuntu and Ubuntu-Based distros, but, the printer-drivers I have, only work in Ubuntu 08.04 - 10.10
