Ubuntu Installation :: 10.04 Install Failure On 5 Pentium III's
Jul 31, 2010Anyone here installed 10.04 on Pentium III's? I have tried installs on 5 of them and have had 5 video failures. These machines all currently run various earlier Ubuntu releases (8.04, 9.04, etc). All of them have 512 M memory but video memory is 32M or less. I have installed 10.04 successfully on 2 Pentium IV's that have 128M video memory so I suspect that's the difference. Is there any trick I'm missing to get the new XRANDR working on these old P-IIIs or should I give up? What I get when bringing up 10.04 from live CD is just a black screen... as 10.04 appears to grind to a halt or just hang.

Fedora Networking :: Install F On Pentium III Machine?
Oct 15, 2009If I install Citrix in Fedora (or Ubuntu) will I be able to remote in to my computers using Rdesktop or the Terminal Services clients included with Windows? Will it be faster than VNC?
When I asked about using remote dektop on Linux I was told that RDP was a proprietary MS thing, but I read it's based off Citrix and Ctrix is actually a better version of it that supports more features and different OSes and not just Windows.
I just install Fedora on my Pentium III machine (with the drive tray). So now I am running it at home and school and I need a way to remote into it...
Fedora Installation :: Cannot Bring F12 Up On Pentium Pro / 128MB RAM
Dec 8, 2009This is harder than it should be. 233 MHz Pentium Pro, 128 MB RAM, Matrox Mystique graphics. The important thing is 35W idle and no fans - a perfect firewall.
Things discovered so far:
- I need to burn DVDs for this machine with -speed=2 (sigh!)
- The syslinux boot loader cannot display its graphical menu - must use the syslinux boot: prompt (double sigh)
- The Live CD does eventually boot into X
The install DVD boots but quickly displays a "You do not have enough RAM to install Fedora on this machine" dialog (this is in text mode). Two questions:
Q1. Is it possible to get anaconda on the DVD to use a swap partition (or otherwise fit into 128MB)?
Q2: Failing that, can I install from the Live CD without starting X?
Ubuntu Installation :: Pentium 4 Slow As An Old Carthorse?
Aug 18, 2010I just installed 10.04 Desktop onto an external USB disk and used it to boot an old Acer Veriton 7600G with a Pentium 4 CPU clocked at 2.80 GHz, 3 Gb of memory and an AGP Sapphire ATI Radeon video card with 512 Mb of DDR2. With nothing running, nothing swapping, only 7% of memory in use, and around 11% of both CPUs, this system is so slow that with no programs running it takes about 5 seconds to switch between dropdown menus in the main Applications/Places/System menu. The standard GMatrix screensaver takes forever to crank out a single character.

I'm new to linux - just thought I'd put this laptop to use to familiarize myself with it.

May 6, 2011I have installed Ubuntu10.04.1LTS in my Desktop amd64 computer. I also downloaded the same version for i386 processors and tried to install the OS for my HCL Pentium Dual Core T4300 @2.1Ghz 4GB RAM laptop, details of which are given in the following two screenshots: dscf0105.jpg and dscf0106.jpg I already have Debian Lenny 5.0.4 installed on the laptop dscf0104.jpg and the laptop works fine when I run the Debian OS or Knoppix liveCD image stored in the HDD of the laptop. We all know that the Ubuntu LTS live CD leads to the following option: Screenshot.jpg However, in my laptop the operation freezes before we can reach the above option. The screenshot explains the situation: dscf0107.jpg I know I could always use one of the alternate downloads and install the OS from it. But my point of contention is: where is the matter going wrong? Can't we use the graphical installer CD to do a CUI installation?

Mar 9, 2011I just finishing burning ubuntu on my laptop and was getting ready to partition my disk to allow space for ubuntu. I restarted my computer and when it was restarting ubuntu logo came up (as it booted from the disc). I was not wanting to install it at this moment so i was waiting for it to load then cancel it(just like a windows installation).It then froze and became pixelated with green and white colours.I thought it was nothing maybe just an error in teh disc. I waited 5-10 minutes then held the power button to shut it off. I then went to settings in the bios and changed it to boot from hdd first. After restart, windows began to load for like 3 seconds then blue screen. I dont know what went wrong or why this is happening.During installation of Ubuntu on my second try I keep getting:sudo: can't read /etc /sudoers: Input/Output errorsudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quittingWhat are the odds of me still having my windows 7 data?and could Hiren's boot cd help?

Nov 20, 2010I pulled down a distro of Fedora 14 and am trying to install it on an older Dell 4400 Dimension. The box has a 1.6GHz Pentium 4 and 1G of RAM. I followed the instructions on the Fedora Project site to burn an .iso image to CD and then set the BIOS to boot from the CD. It boots, sorta, goes through the first screen or two and then pops a blue box saying "Please check pc display settings" and at that point I can't tell what is happening behind the kimono.

May 14, 2011The company im working at is planning to sell some of the old lappy One of them is this pentium3 laptop (for only 20 bucks DD)
the specs are:
pentium 3 1.1ghz
640MB ram
28GB hdd
wifi
Im wondering that if this machine is sufficient to run linux as a server I dont plan to use it for anything big just among me and a few friends Also, I dont rlly need any Desktop Environment as I can just ssh to this machine from my other laptops if I need to do any work on it.
Hence, my questions are as follows:
1. is this machine sufficient to run linux as a web/file server for me and a few friends?
2. also, is it okay to rlly run this laptop 24/7? (its a rlly old laptop after all)
3. lastly, altho I prefer using opensuse, but if I dont need any DE at all, would Arch be a better solution? (Its known to be very small and light)

Fedora Installation :: Boot Just Stops On Plain Blue F Screen
Mar 15, 2011Have recently dual-installed F14 with Windows 7 on an Asus Eee PC 1015P, have been in and out of both systems satisfactorily a number of times. Now the Fedora boot just hangs up at the plain blue "f" screen. I have been prodding around looking at the problem of having no WLAN under Fedora but have not knowingly made any changes. I thought about just doing a re-install but am reluctant to risk messing things up further i.e damaging the Windows until I have Fedora working ok.
View 11 Replies View RelatedFedora Installation :: Blue Background Booting Instead Of Purple One Of Ubuntu
Sep 5, 2011make my own home server to play with. While reading a guide I found out about a package of software called Amahi. Very easy and yet so powerful says the site. That's what I need! I looks cool and indeed pretty easy. I already start smiling because I have this old Ubuntu 11.04 computer here. Then I see that Amahi runs best on Fedora 14 and that the support for Ubuntu is still in Alpha phase. No problem, let's install F14 then. I put everything right in the BIOS. I downloaded the DVD iso image, burned it and put it in my drive. Nothing happens, soon I realise that drive only accepts CD's. I quickly change it with a CD/DVD drive of another computer, but still nothing happens. Then I read about this LiveUSB thing. I do everything needed and change boot sequence to Removable. It still keeps booting Ubuntu on Hard Disk 0. My last resort: Fedora Live i686 iso on a CD. Things go as expected. What am I doing wrong? I just want to see that (probably) blue background of Fedora booting instead of that purple one of Ubuntu.

May 1, 2011I have a Hewlett-Packard HP Pavilion dv6000. I had no issues before the upgrade, but after, my wireless driver refuses to turn on the wireless at all. I've seen in most of the posts, people can see the wireless networks but not access them. I can't even get my little orange wireless (off) light to turn blue (on). The "additional drivers" option in "administration" was a bust and I've tried reinstalling the kernel from my original disk iso.
Here is my wireless info:

I currently have the STA broadcom driver enabled and all I can do is use a cable for internet right now.
