Ubuntu :: Force Cpu To Run At Certain Speed?

Aug 1, 2011

I have a Dell Inspiron 9200 with the Intel Pent M 1.8ghz processor that has speed stepping. For some reason the speed stepping doesn't seem to be working...is there a way for me to force the CPU to run at a higher speed then the current 600mhz...I installed cpufreq but the commands i give it from the cpufreq wiki don't seem to be doing much.

General :: Turn Turtle-speed Browsing Into Penguin-speed Browsing?

Oct 17, 2010

I've just installed Slackware 13.1 in two different laptops for first time. I have some strange internet browsing behaviour in one of the laptops. I've installed 2 internet browsers(firefox,opera) using the directions from Slackbuilds.org and there is also konqueror pre-installed. Moreover I installed Wicd network manager.

I can browse some pages e.g. ..... with firefox very slowly but NEVER facebook. I can browse almost any page, even facebook, with OPERA but very very slowly. The same goes with konqueror... Wicd shows that i am always connected with my WPA wireless network

Ubuntu :: How To Force Into Low Graphics At Boot

May 2, 2010

Have just moved into my gf's place from a shared accomodation and have taken my mythbuntu (8.04) box with me. Have plugged it into her Sony tv and initially it looks promising, bios screen shows and so does the mythbuntu splash. But after that the tv just sits there with a message saying "out of range". Anyone got any ideas how I can force it into a low graphics mode or similar so at the very least I can access the desktop.

Oh and to make things worse my gf has no Internet access (writing this on my phone) and I don't have a livecd to hand

Ubuntu :: Force Restart On CTRL+ALT+DEL?

Jan 2, 2011

I've hired a dedicated Ubuntu10.10 Server on a remote colocation. I needed a GUI to be able to hook into my KVM guests, so I installed xubuntu-desktop.

My dedicated server provider provides me very useful free service. I can request a CTRL+ALT+DEL to my server through their web based server control panel, and I can boot into a live image from their network. This is vital for me to be able fix back configuration problems.

However after I have installed xubuntu-desktop (XFCE I believe), the CTRL+ALT+DEL no longer reboots the machine.

I've been struggling with this simple issue for quite a few days, I simply can't get it to work.

I've tried setting it through XCFE 4 Settings Manager. It does not work. From my understanding any keyboard shortcuts defined here are specific to user, so I think they'll not work when the server is in login screen (no user logged in).

I've tried to put control-alt-delete.conf files in /etc/init and /etc/init/d , neither seems to trigger reboot.

Ubuntu :: Way To Force Webcam On Without Key-combo?

Jan 16, 2011

I use Ubuntu 10.10 on a Medion PC (E6220), and everything is fine and dandy ... except, the webcam does not work. Well actually I think it does work, and I also think, that Ubuntu would recognize it, if it was turned on. The problem however is, that in order to turn it on, I need to press fn+F9, and that key combo simply does not work ... neither does the fn+F7 combo, which toggles the wifi - but that is less important, since wifi is on and works. Logging into i.e. win7, toggling the webcam there, and then back into Ubuntu is not really an option at the moment. So right now I seem to be stuck in a situation, where a non-defined keyboard shortcut equals no webcam at all. The obvious question of course is: Is there a way to force the webcam on without the key-combo?

Ubuntu :: Force The Automount Without Reconnecting The Device?

Apr 15, 2010

In Ubuntu Karmic conencting a USB device causes OS to automatically mount its partitions to /media/LABEL, automatically creating proper directories which are later automatically destroyed immediately after unmounting. But what if If I manually unmount a specific partition and I would like the OS to try doing automount another time, without reconnecting the whole device (it can have other partitions in active use)? I know I can mount manually, but then I have to create a directory for the mount point and I have to remember later to remove it manually.I'd like to be done as before, with the mount point directory being automatically destroyed after unmounting - can this be done in a terminal?

Ubuntu :: How To Force Reinstall Package After Removing

Jun 7, 2010

I'm trying to re-install tomcat6 after removing it and all it's dependencies, but it got corrupt when trying to re-install. I'm on Ubuntu Sever Lucid 10.04 LTS with command line only.

I started with:
Code:
sudo apt-get auto-remove tomcat6
Then I deleted the /etc/tomcat6 directory manually since it contained file settings I didn't want. I assumed it would automatically install the missing files.

Then I tried re-installing tomcat6 as follows:
Code:
sudo apt-get install tomcat6

This yielded an error:
Code:
Setting up tomcat6 (6.0.24-2ubuntu1) ...
chmod: cannot access `/etc/tomcat6/tomcat-users.xml': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing tomcat6 (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Setting up authbind (1.2.0build3) ...

Errors were encountered while processing:
tomcat6
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
How are you supposed to completely remove a package and re-install it normally?

Ubuntu :: Reset Force Check Default?

Jun 13, 2010

When I ran 8.04, force check would be run every 23 boots. The ESCAPE key allowed me to skip it that boot and it would again start force check at the next boot. In 10.04, it gave me an option to use the C key to cancel, but it does not attempt force check at subsequent boots. It does not seem to do an automatic check any more.

How can I restore the original 10.04 setting? Or better yet, get it to perform as it did in 8.04
