General :: HP Pavilion Ze2805 Shuts Down After 10 Min To 7 Hrs Of Operation?
Jan 12, 2011
When I first received it (used) a few weeks ago, this only happened occasionally and it took a while for a pattern to develop. The 7 hr stretch was listening to music of WCPE.org, but the next day I only could get minutes from the same site It sems to get progressively worse, yet the outside of the case, near the fan or anywhere else,doesln't get uncomfortably warm. I had another unit from the same vendor. He took that back and sent this one after a 24'hour test, but will not answer further communication. Generally I get best results if it has sat shut down overnight, but this morning even that was good for only a few minutes. It does this running XP from the hard disk or Linux from CD. Actually I would like to split the hard disk and put Linux on the second half as the default boot. But it won't run long enough to install anything now!

I built a desktop a year or so ago, which runs like a dream. I have installed many OSes on it but the problem persists. If it tell the PC to restart it does everything right, shuts down but the PC remains on before it can restart. The OS shuts down and nothing is running, but the desktop stays on. If it helps, the PC shuts down fine. Just an annoying issue if I get updates in Windows/ Ubuntu etc.

My gateway laptop shuts down either imediately after booting, or while I'm online, usually within the first 5 minutes. I have a laptop cooler and aima fan at the laptop while using it. Could it be the hard drive? Is there any way of knowing before I buy a new hard drive?

I have a laptop HP Pavillion dv6000 Intel (R) Core (TM)2 CPU T5300 @ 1.73GHz. I saw online somewhere that this computer was not very compatable with one or two Distro's resulting in some of the hardware not working as there were no drivers. So I was wondering what distro would be best for me, being a bit of a novice, without me getting to lost and ensuring that the hardware will still function afterward

First of all, I have not tried to install anything yet, just doing some research. I recently bought a HP notebook with the intention of installing Linux (I was thinking Ubuntu?) on it, and in my ignorance I assumed that driver support for Linux wouldn't be a problem. Alas, I have some difficulties finding out how to proceed with the installation.
The laptop I bought is a HP Pavilion dm1-2020eo, however it seems it is a region specific model, as I couldn't find it on HP's UK/US sites. Here is a link to the Norwegian description; I am sure you can figure out what the specifications are (don't know if they are relevant at all, though, heh).I couldn't find the model in this list, Windows drivers can be found here. I realise this whole post is a mess, however I hope someone is able point me in the right direction. (On a side note, does anyone know a good guide for building a boot disc/USB stick so I can customize the distro with drivers, partition tools etc?)

I create a Ubuntu boot disk 11.4 and selected Install all I got was a little white box near the bottom right of the screen. I got a new hard drive and wanted to try the linux operating system. With the boot disk the computer does boot from the cdrom drive, but I can't get it to install. After hitting forward on the screen preparing to install ubuntu the screen it says installing and gets stuck at that point. Booted from cdrom got as far as the "Who are you?"screen then the screen went blank but I can still see hard drive activity. Is it formating the drive?

I got a laptop for free. It's an old POS, but it was free, and it basically works for pretty much what I am going to use it for. Web Browsing, Cloud Computing type stuff.NOTE: I am an extreme Google Whore. To paraphrase Jay-Z: Google Mail, Google Docs, all Google Everything. lol. when considering my question, please keep this in mind.anyhow, this is what I am working with:
HP Pavilion zt1130
Windows XP SP3
Intel Celeron Processor 1133MHz
684MB RAM
S3 Graphics Twister 16MB
20GB Hard Drive
DirectX 9.0c
Linksys Wireless-G Network Adapter
as I mentioned above, I use Google Stuff for my primary computing Needs. GMail, Google Docs for Office stuff, Reader for RSS, etc. with Google Gears to make these apps usable offline. I also use LastFM, Twitter, etc. My preferred browser is Chrome, but I can settle for Firefox if necessary. I am trying to figure out if getting off of Windows XP, and switching to Linux might help with boosting the performance of this old, crappy machine(does the OS even matter in regards to this?), and maybe push it more towards being more of a Cloud Computing machine. and which Distro would probably be best for me and my computer.
I know absolutely nothing about Linux beyond common, basic stuff. So anything that requires some complex set up is not what I am looking for. I'd also need a decently easy to use GUI. But I am unsure about hardware compatibility and things like that. I don't wanna wipe my HD, and break the computer trying to install Linux,

I have an LM Technologies 54Mbps wifi usb adapter.This is because my wireless section on my motherboard does not work.The drivers on the installation disk do not automatically install for linux. Looking at the manual I have to build the device driver. On the page is computer programing formulie that looks like a foreign language. I do not know computer programing. At the bottom of the page it says:-
Install individual driver
If you only need driver of ZD1211 or ZD1211B you can issue:
make clean
make ZD1211REV_B=0(0 for ZD1211,1 for ZD1211b)
make ZD1211REV_B=0 install(o for ZD1211,1 for ZD1211B
to install the driver.
Then it says:- Build the debugging tool. There are two debugging tools in this package,"apdbg" and "menudbg". Run"make debug" to complete them both. If you do not have ncurse library, you may get some error messages while compiling meudbg. you can ignore it and get apdbg only. It goes on and on about network interface, configure wireless settings.

I was messing around with my drive trying some different arrangements of partition to get another one inside. overall the result doesn't differ much from the original but while messing with it I done a lot of steps. I thought GParted will do the minimal number of operations but it didn't. it just traced all my operations one by one. this gave it a few days worth of work. As I don't want to loose data I can't hit cancel but I don't want to wait few days for it. Is there any way to tell it to stop after completing the current operation? It's from natty ubuntu live cd.

I run SUSE on my machine for a year, but I'm really a newbie on Linux. In the system monitor it states:SUSE LINUX Release 11.2 Kernel Linux 2.6.31.5 -0.1 -desktop GNOME 2.28.0Last week when I rebooted my machine, I suddenly found my machine had no response to any click or typing. When the cursor move to any icons, they can be highlighted, but when I click them, no response at all. The weird thing is almost every time after I reboot the computer, it can work for a few minutes, then stop working. But if I press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, it can be log out.
I think there must be something wrong with my GNOME, 'cause everything seems working fine when I login IceWM. recover the .config file in my home directory. But I don't have this file in my home directory.

I'm writing a script based on dialog and one of it's functions is to perform a restore with dd, of which I would like to show the progress by means of the "gauge" option of the "dialog" utility. I wanted to do this by sending a USR1 signal from time to time to the dd PID, because this results into the amount of bytes already being dd-ed ont the console screen. A simple calculation based on the orginal size would result into a percentage that can be fed to the gauge function of dialog.
The challenge I'm facing now is to launch an external script (I guess with "&" to send it to the background) that sends, let's say every 5 seconds a USR1 signal to the dd PID. That would be no problem, but how do I capture the output of this "kill -USR1" to the original script? I tested this and the output is not sent to standard ouput, so it must be that it is sent to standard error. For now I don't see a way out.

We often require to find an equivalent text command for any GUI operation. Just as an example we click on a folder (say ABC) from the current directory in order to see the contents of that directory. The equivalent command for it to happen would be->
Code:
cd ABC ls Now the thing is that we often don't know what that equivalent command will be. So I want to know that is there any way out to find it. What I want to do is that I shall perform any operation using mouse in the GUI mode(whatever operation it could be) and then I can see a log file to see what I actually did last(rather what the command would have been if I have worked in the text mode)...

I am having an issue with HTTPS certification using curl. My curl is configured with OpenSSL. If the certification verification is failed I dont want to terminate the operation, instead I want to continue by just putting a log message. For this I have used OpenSSL SSL_CTX_set_verify() function to set my static C callback function. During HTTPS transaction, my callback is also getting called with first parameter 0 or 1 (depending upon of the certificate verification is success or failure). But even if my certification verification is failure, I want to continue. So I have hard coded to return value as 1 always from my callback function. But still I see the certification error and I don't get the page.

I tried to move 2.7TB of data from my /var/webroot/ partition (4.5TB total in size). I left it to run over night, this morning when I came to check I saw that all data on / paratition is used up and no operations can be done because of the "no space left on device" message.
Code:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0p7 911G 911G 0 100% /
tmpfs 7.9G 0 7.9G 0% /lib/init/rw
[code]....
I freed up several hundred MB from / but still the usage is at 100% and I cant free up any more space or complete the transfer ?

But when I telnet to ntp server "10.1.35.2" it says A remote host refused an attempted connect operation:
I know * here represents that the machine is in sync with ntp server. My question if the machine is in sync with ntp server, how does it work?why ntp port 123 is connection refused?

I run a small site and today I've discovered that my site is down. I found that cPanel has flagged the account suspended even though I haven't got any quotas on the account. I don't know what went wrong. I've tried to unsuspend the account in WHM but a certain part of the function failed.
Quote:
safe_userchgid: chown: /home/crocbits/public_html: Operation not permitted at /scripts/cPScript/SafetyBits.pm line 93.
After searching the internet someone mentioned that the problem might lie in the permissions of the public_html folder. I had a look at the permissions and the folder had no permissions d----- When I try to chmod the folder I get this error:
Quote:
chmod: changing permissions of `public_html': Operation not permitted
I have no idea what to do next. All the files in the directory are locked too. I tried to move them but this command isn't allowed either. I ran these commands under the 'root' user in SSH.
