Can it damage a laptop in the long run to have it on Performance rather than a lower speed like "Ondemand" or "Powersave"? My laptop runs a lot better with "Performance" rather than something else, but I don't want it to suddenly die or get overheated in a couple of weeks or months.
New member here. Was introduced to Ubuntu by the IT guy at my last place of work and liked it so much, I ran WUBI on my laptop for a couple of months before taking the plunge and today fully converting my Compaq Presario CQ56 Laptop to the full Ubuntu OS.
The only issue I have is I have no sound whatsoever. I have seen some suggestions where you should check the hardware drivers and when I do that the only driver that appears is for ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver. It also says this driver is active and currently in use.
So, can anyone else offer some help. I love the system and the way it does everything but it needs sound. Incidentally when I ran WUBI (while Windows 7 was on there) I did not have a problem with the sound!
I just upgraded my sid install and after shutting down X I don't see any text on the console.
I can still type in commands so at least I can shutdown the computer, by typing in the commands blindly.
I've also noticed that my xserver keybindings have changed again, too
It's not self explainatory howto switch out of an xsession to the console.
I'm not quite sure if anything else has changed with this new set of drivers and I guess only time will tell.
So I'm hoping that the next xserver package updates will bring new features,functionality and foundation.

I'm currently running 9.10 and I'm wondering if it isn't possible to turn certain features on or off. For example the dock that appears at the bottom of the screen, I don't dig it but it isn't under System ---> Preferences ---> Startup applications. Also when I connect/disconnect my modem, can I change the size of the notification window and how long it stays on the screen? Another is how to stop everything I plug in appearing on the desktop. I prefer an uncluttered desktop and would like to open plug-in devices through Places.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was recently pushed back towards linux after spending nearly a decade in a windows only environment and I'm finding myself struggling. The reason for the change is that we purchased Kaspersky and the mail gateway is only available under linux. They advised Debian and Exim.
The crux of the problem is that I have a working debian server running with exim4 and kaspersky to act as a gateway mail server but it's not checking inbound mail against the internal servers address list. For this I need to add ldap support to the exim package but I'm not sure how to do this - it seems silly that I should have to start over at this stage.
Full details:= I didn't have too much trouble installing and configuring a debian 64bit server for our network, adding exim4 and getting it all set up to work, then several weeks of hot fix releases and "oh, it shouldn't do that" passed as we attempted to get the Kaspersky software operating properly. During that time I learned that the kaspersky software does not provide a function to check inbound emails against the internal server. Previously we did this with an LDAP lookup under the Sophos Puremessage software that Kaspersky replaced. Without this function the MTA sends out a lot of backscatter that results in the server being put on blocklists and that effects business. Kaspersky tell me this is something I need to set the MTA software (exim4) to do so I've looked that up and it appears that step 1 is to install exim with ldap support... but I've already installed and configured exim without ldap support. So I'm not sure if I have to start over by removing exim, install over the top or what. Also if I do add ldap support or install exim-heavy over what I have will I need to reconfigure everything I've done so far?
as I said, it's been 10 years since I used linux and even then it was fairly basic sendmail and apache stuff.
I am testing LXDE on my test-laptop and it looks quite nice and fast. I am thinking of switching DE from Gnome.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am running openSUSE 11.2 x86_64. I am processing work units from Folding@home on this pc. Strange thing is, when I actually leave the pc alone and working on folding@home, my performance actually drops instead of going up as I would expect. I believe there is some kind of powersaving feature I cant find or something else that's hurting quite a bit on the PC. I am talking about maybe 20-30% performance loss. PC in question is: Athlon II 630.
Already deactivated Cool'n'Quiet from the BIOS. Got no fresh ideas on what could cause this weird behaviour.
Update:
Code:
[22:05:52] Completed 260000 out of 500000 steps (52%)

[22:48:16] Completed 280000 out of 500000 steps (56%)
PC was "idle" working on folding and I came back at 54%, see the huge difference? Frames were taking about 13 minutes each when "idle". When I am using the computer, frames are done within 8 minutes.
I'm looking for a way to remove embedded features from a PDF document. I recently purchased a Kindle DX. When I try to open some of my PDF files on the device, I get a message saying: this pdf cannot be opened due to embedded features not yet supported by kindleI'm looking for a way to remove the use of these features from the document so I can view it on my Kindle. I'm a Ubuntu Linux user. (I tried opening the PDF in Document Viewer and printing it to a PDF file by going to File->Print. This make it so I could open it on the Kindle DX, but the font is messed up and very difficult to read. This won't do.)

I am using Thunderbird for quite a long time now.
The problem is that I found that the feature which allows a user to use an audio file for new mail alerts is missing. I am using version 2.0.0.23. Now a popup showing new mails is working but it becomes very tiresome to always look at the monitor screen.
Moving to a new mail client is not an issue for me but this one big feature that Thunderbird has is holding me back.
That feature is the ability to encrypt the locally stored password with a "Master Password".
I used Evolution Mail client for a short time and liked it too but again the "Master Password" feature is missing.
Is there a way to enable sound alerts (new mails) in Thunderbird 2.0.0.23 ?
Does the latest version of evolution includes the "Master Password" feature? (I don't want to do all that configuration without asking.)
Maybe I don't pay enough attention. I just know that whenever I've wanted to resize an image or email it, I've been able to do it pretty quickly. It was usually a two step process of resizing with an editor and then sending from a menu. Today, though, I went into the shiny new Shotwell and there appears to be no way to resize; or email.
OK. Went back into F-Spot. Surely there's an easy way to resize and/or email from there. Nope. Are we missing an easy way to do this or am I missing something? I love Gimp but do I have to use that to resize an image? Seems like overkill. Ostensibly, there should be a one stop process - either from an app or from Nautilus - send image and a quick dialog to ask what size and GO!
So I am still getting use to Ubuntu as far as when the new OS comes out. I am use to when Windows did a release every 3-5 years. So last year I install Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and already 10.10 is out. My understanding though 10.10 is not a LTS so should I upgrade? Or will mine automatically upgrade to that version? Is there any real new features to 10.10 that I am missing out on? I can't do anything for another month and a half for the fact I am on deployment in the US Navy but I am highly thinking about moving up.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am encountering problems to configure my firewall (through iptables) to allow apt-get features, like update and install.I have the latest debian server running in a virtual machine in my windows xp and therefore I have two interfaces in this debian server:- NAT Interfaceinet: 10.0.2.15- Host Only Interfaceinet: 192.168.56.101So far my iptable rules drop all packets for default, in exception icmp and ssh that I allow to ping and connect from my windows xp. Both of them I use only the Host interface (192...) to connect to another 192... interface on my windows.
Those are working fine, but apt is not. I know, in this very moment it shouldn't. But I made a lot of attempts trying to configure the iptables allow connections through the 80 and 21 ports from/to NAT and Host. I think I made all possible combination (or not, because it didnt work). But I'm wondering if someone more experient can help me solve this problem.
I'm using CentOS 5 and just found out that there are people using my Apache Web Server as proxy (version 2.2.3 the OS's default).
I've checked out that my mod_proxy is already disabled but the unauthorized incoming request is still very large.
So I tried to compile an Apache from raw (2.2.17) just enabling mod_rewrite and then found out that the 'proxy' request is still there.
Tried httpd -l and here are the modules inside the Apache :
Code:
# /opt/apachew/bin/httpd -l
Compiled in modules:
core.c
mod_authn_file.c
[Code]....
There should be no mod_proxy but why should it still accepting proxy request? I checked the access_log file and still found [URL] and so on.
My question is : - How to block all the proxy request and only accepting the normal web server request? I also have tried to enable proxy in the previous Apache and then setting up "ProxyRequest Off" and Proxy * only from localhost but the request is still there.
I tried by myself using the webserver as proxy in browser and all the URLs I opened including the false URL will be redirected to my index.php and this should show me that 'you-can't-use-this-as-proxy-anymore' right?
Insane people still believe they could use my server and they keep trying and trying.
I couldn't block the IP addresses because some of them are using the mobile data (GPRS/UMTS) and that is our market for the website.
I have recently installed new Ubuntu 10.04 system on notebook, and would like to have there all "notebook-like" features, like working fn+key shortcuts, and other similar things.

I'm used to write simple programs on codeblock which run on consle. i.e.console applications. When I try to compile programs which need graphic features, I get stuck as many libraries 9especially header files) are not in MINGW/include folder so I have to search on the net and add those files into include. My question is, by default, to enable graphics features on code block which "folder" should I download and incorporate it into codeblock? I tried to follow examples on glut, opengl, that is you have to download glut and add it somewhere on codeblock. Now I just want to have graphics functionality especially which need graphics.h file, searched on the net and find that sometime you have to download BGI, sometimes you have to download SDL, etc.
I hope you get the picture of what I'm trying to understand, it seems that by default codeblock doesn't come with graphic functionality e.g.graphics.h file, now what shall I download, and where do I add it so that I can draw graphs etc on codeblock. [codeblock has /include folder in C: Program FilesCodeBlocksMinGWinclude], now whenever I download new feature e.g. glut has its own version of include, lib folders etc. Is it necessary to add those include, lib on inlude, lib of C:Program FilesCodeBlocksMinGW? or it should work on its own original path? suppose I download glut on C:Program FilesCodeBlocksGlut. Now, what folder should I download to have graphics on codeblock?...
