View 1 RepliesI just received this Acer Aspire One Aoa110 from my sister.
Originally Windows Xp, my cousin changed it to Linux.
Right now I am so frustrated with this, as I have no knowledge of Linux whatsoever.
I tried looking for the Acer recovery program, but I can't find it.
I do have to say that Linux is really fast, but I like personalizing my walllpaper where I can do it with Windows Xp..
So my question is, how can I restore this computer to how it was before my cousin tweaked it?
Here is what the desktop looks like right now:

What is the factory default SCSI target for /dev/sd0?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI bought a used Acer Aspire one with Linux on it and it works great. I want to restore it to factory settings but I do not have a restore disk. (not to mention that the unit doesn't have a CD drive anyways.)
I have read on other sites that Alt-F10 works but I think that is only for WIN because I can not get that to work. Is there an equivalent function with Linux.
There are two sets of repos for 4. One is stable and the other is Factory. On the repos page it says this about kde 4.4 Factory: "These repositories feature the KDE packages under development for the upcoming openSUSE release and includes openSUSE specific patches". For reasons that are somewhat involved and that I won't go into right here I am stuck in openSUSE 11.0 and can't upgrade until I get a new machine which will be some time. Is Factory unfinished and will Kde 4.4 Factory work well in 11.0?

There is no CD drive on the netbook so I have been trying to install 7 with a flash drive. The netbook did not have a disk but I did get a serial number for 7 and I have an ISO of 7. I put it on my flash drive and tried to boot it, but when I click on unetboot menu "default" it just starts the 10 second timer over and doesnt load.
I used a live usb of ubuntu to go to gparted to delete the partitions so I could load up the usb with 7 on it, but again it does not work. It gives me a grub error if I try to boot up. I know there I deleted the partitions, but maybe something is still there?
In short: I need ubuntu off and windows 7 back on using only a flash drive, a serial for 7 and an ISO image.
I dont know if this matters but its a Toshiba Satellite T-115D.
I am copying the file form one directory to another directory using shellscript.
Here i want to get the Mimetype/Content-type of the file.
How to i can get the MimeType.
I am on 10.4 with a Dell Notebook (E6400). I use it mostly with a USB mouse. Everything worked fine for about 2 months. Then I shutdown, unplugged the mouse, restarted without the mouse, and my trackpad is broken. It works a little, but text fields and some apps capture the mouse events and won't let go. For instance, the cursor gets stuck in a text field and there is no way (keyboard or mouse) to get out.
I've tried several times to fix this and I cannot. If I boot from a LiveCD then everything works fine. My theory is that the mouse configuration files somehow got corrupted in my plugging/unplugging of the external mouse. How can I reset the mouse to factory defaults? Are there a set of files I can copy over from the live CD?I tried to delete and recreate my xorg.conf file and this did not work either.
Well, my desktop's win7 installation stopped working over a year ago...so it just sat there gathering dust until the other night, when I was trying out ubuntu on it from a disk. So, well, the factory settings was vista, so i was wondering if there was something i could put into Terminal to restore it?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI installed Ubuntu to dual boot with Vista that came with my Dell Inspiron 1420. Dell had a partition where the Vista install could be restored to factory state when the laptop was purchased.
After installing Ubuntu, I see:
I think the /dev/sda5 partition was the one that contains the Vista system restore information. And according to Dell documentation, I need to the F8 key at BIOS load time to make the laptop boot the restore partition.
However after the Ubuntu install, I cannot get the Factory Restore to start by pressing the F8. It worked before the Ubuntu install.
How to get to my state before I installed Vista. I want to be able to restore the laptop to the state before I installed Ubuntu.
I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 (also Classic, don't really care.) I'm trying to install [Greeting Card Factory DELUXE V7] Can anyone help me or does anyone have any clue whatsoever if this can be achieved?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have installed UNR 9.10 Karmic on new Asus EEE pc 1008HA to dual boot with XP. Like many new pc's it has a hidden partition to recover the factory hard disk settings and Microsoft Windows XP. Unfortunately, GRUB2 has picked this up and is showing the recovery system in the boot menu. Clearly this is dangerous because the user could reset the pc. How do I remove or hide this boot start up option? Other thoughts: I do not believe Easybcd works with xp/linux. is there another easy bootloader?

The problem is I don't have a DVD drive in my netbook.Is there a DVD writer program for Windows or something similar that would simulate the presence of a DVD drive and allow a backup DVD to be written to it?

Using Ubuntu 10.04 64bit (Gnome)
associate html attachment in emails with Firefox and tried to edit mime type extensions in Thunderbird through Edit/Preferences/Attachments/Download Actions/View & Edit Actions but it is empty and there is no way to add extensions there. Is there a different way to do it? I tried to choose Firefox while opening the attachment. It works but does not remember it for further actions.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFiles downloaded with Firefox, Chromium, Miro etc. will not open correctly. Clicking to open the file (e.g. jpg or ogg) should result in the file opening with eog or audacious. Results - from Nautilus this works correctly, however from other applications the result is a Nautilus window. Placing a file 'test.torrent' on the desktop and using terminal to do
Code:
gnome-open test.torrent
or
Code:
xdg-open test.torrent
results in the same behaviour. However, simply clicking the file in Nautilus opens it in Deluge (correct behaviour).
I have a user that is reporting the following error on a bounced message:
Quote:
smtp;554 5.6.1 Body type not supported by Remote Host
He is forwarding emails from his exchange server to a recipient in Germany relaying through our smtp server using Surgemail as the MTA.
He called a senior tech specialist at Microsoft to get help thinking the problem was on his end (exchange server). According to this "specialist", he said the problem was that our smtp server was not advertising 8BitMIME in its 250 statement. I tested this myself by log in on to the smtp server and doing typing the following:
Code:
EHLO localhost
250-smtp.<mycompanyname>.com. Hello localhost (127.0.0.1)
250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN
250-DSN
[Code]....
As you can see, 250-8BITMIME is not listed here. From the bit of research I made, I found that most MTAs send this by default. Is it possible that the characters from the German language are causing this problem?
NOTE: This problem did not exist or was never reported until now. No one has made any changes on any settings on the server.
I need to launch programs in my program and the program can be a script, a Linux executable or even a Windows executable. The first thing i tried is to use xdg-open from my program, but i can't pass arguments to it, otherwise it would have worked perfectly. Is there maybe a way to determine which program is set as default according to the mime-type of the program i want to launch? I also tried kfmclient and gnome-open, they don't allow arguments either.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying on getting the MIME types setup correctly for Apache/MediaWiki. I think I've modified every config file known to man to no avail. Here's some info on what I've got going on. I'm trying to get the Office 2007 MIME types configured for MediaWiki 1.14 so that we can upload/download the files. Out of frustration/lack of need I went the less secure route and I modified the LocalSettings.php config file to disable MIME type verification for uploads.
Code:
$wgVerifyMimeType = false;
This works great for the uploads, and I can upload .DOCX, .XLSX, and .PPTX all day long, however when downloading them, they download as a .ZIP file with all the XML info inside of it. No biggie for me personally as I can just rename .ZIP to .DOCX and it works fine, however for the average user it's not going to fly. So, I figured that MIME types would be the source of my pain and started doing some research.
I have modified the following config files to include the MIME types listed below.
/etc/mime.types
/var/www/.htaccess (created to try and force them)
/var/www/mediawiki-1.14.0/.htaccess (created to try and force them)
/var/www/mediawiki-1.14.0/includes/mime.types

application/vnd.ms-excel.template.macroEnabled.12 xltm
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.template xltx
It doesn't seem to matter where I put the code, I can't get the MIME types to register with Apache/MediaWiki.
Does anyone know the iptables statement that will block inbound SMTP messages that are NOT S/MIME encrypted?

I don't have wine installed. But I use teamviewer [URL] to remote support my friends. Teamviewer provide an "linux version" using wine wrapper. Every time I run it, some mime types such as .jpg, .wmv, .txt, .ini, v.v... was set to be handle by a "A Wine application". So, nothing happen when I open those file, I have to reset their handler to proper linux application.
1. How can I completely remove those "A wine application" handler? Is there a tool, or a settings applet in gnome that allow me to do that. Currently, I have to find those files in nautilus, right click and change the open with settings, that's frustrated.
2. Can I lock mime type handling settings from being changed by some application? Or even lock it from any changed at all? I don't mind remove the write permission from some settings file, I won't likely to change my current mime type handling settings in near future.
I installed MS office 2003 via wine on Slackware 13. I need to know how to associate files with the right Office (msword, msexcel, msppt) program. I made launcher scripts that can launches office files from the CL, but the user on this computer will want to be able to just double click a file in dolphin and have the right office program come up.For some reason all office files show up as x-ole-storage instead of application/msword or something similar. So, even if I tell Excel to associate with that file, it will do it for Word and PowerPoint files as well.
.ppt, .doc, and .xls extensions were configured via the KDE file associations panel, but this did not help. I played around with the raw files under ~/.local/share, but I did not find the solution.The version of WINE is 1.1.24 (built from SBo SlackBuild).

From looking in the specified directory I can see that this file does not exist, however I am unable to simply create or copy a file with the required name to resolve this issue. Is this a known error, or is my install package simply missing the needed files; even though I managed to successfully install this package a few days earlier onto the same system.
