Ubuntu :: Getting An SD Adaptor To Work In Maverick
Apr 21, 2011
I've been using Ubuntu 10.10 for the past couple of months now and I thoroughly enjoy it, but I've seem to eventually come over a problem. I'm on vacation and want to transfer pictures from my camera to my computer. I have a Micro SD adapter (2 GB) that I've tried to put into my SD slot on my computer, but it seems that Ubuntu doesn't recognize it (gotten a bit used to plug & play laziness, I guess). Does anyone know how to make Ubuntu recognize the memory card?
I have a older Dell desktop running a older version of Ubuntu 9.04. I recently got a Belkin N300 micro wireless usb adaptor so I could use it to connect to the internet. I have a Verizon MiFi 2200 wireless router that I use for internet access. The desktop won't recognize the new hardware. It came with a driver disc, but it's for windows.
I just recently installed and have no clue how to get the drivers for my netopia 3d wireless adaptor to work! all the drivers are for windows! I have never used this OS before.
I've ubuntu 10.04 and I can't connect to router wi-fi with my new wireless adaptor usb (ralink 2870). I've tried various guides but nothing. The adaptor work fine with Windows and other linux distributions.
With Lucid I was capable of scanning both with my Epson Perfection 640 U scanner and with my HP-M1120n-MFP network scanner. To get the HP-M1120n to work I had to rename a file which I do not remenber which was. I do not remember where I found the instructions. I am running HPLIP 3.10.6 with Device Manager 15.0. I did a fresh install of Maverick Beta and I am not able to neither scan with the Epson Perfection scanner nor with the M1120n-MFP. As said, both worked with Lucid. As said I had to rename a file to get the MFP scanner to work. I include screen shots to this post.
I just had the idea of going back to command line music players and mp3blaster is what that came to my mind. I am running Kubuntu 10.10 on a Thinkpad T43 laptop with the default kernel. In an archived thread I read
mp3blaster -s /dev/dsp
would do the trick. But since all sound devices in my current laptop seem to be listed under /dev/snd as pcmC0D0p etc. I tried using,
mp3blaster -s /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p
and this gave a sound device control error.
Just did some digging around and saw that I didn't have any oss modules running. Are they the culprits? If not how would I make mp3blaster use my current devices else do I need to reconfigure my kernel to have the oss modules?
I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 Worked fined, but suspend doesn't work anymore. When I click suspend, a tty1 terminal screen appears, exactly as you would hit ctrl+alt+F1, with the exception that no input is possible. I'm a newbie and an Ubuntu fan but I absolutely have no idea how to solve this...
This is an eternal problem with radio-canada streaming content, and it seems every new version of ubuntu we have to go through different processes to get it to work.In some previous versions, following the guidelines provided by radio-canada worked, but they are quite outdated now and some of the packages they refered to do not even exist anymore. I make regular reports of their website, but users complaining only end up by, if they answer at all "it works on our computers so it should work on yours" or "why don't you use windows".
Basically, their guides consist of removing the totem totem plugin, installing flash-plugin-nonfree and the mplayer plugin.I read somewhere the mplayer plugin is now gecko-mediaplayer, which I installed, but the videos still don't work.
I have made a custom kernel a few weeks ago, and just today the sound on everything isn't working. Upgraded alsa to 1.0.24 to try to fix and nothing... What do I need to do?
I just upgraded to 10.10 version (32 bit) and istalled gmameui along with mame. Although when i try to run gmameui preferences the program crashes, it recognizes the roms and am able to play so it doesnt really bother me. The problem is that joystick works but not properly despite jscal calibration .My joystick is recognized as js0. I reinstalled "joystick" package but the problem persists
yesterday I upgraded of my ubuntu release from 10.04 to 10.10 and now, when I plug my mp3 creative zen player it doesn't work.The same player works very well with 10.04 and I can upload my mp3s directly from rythmnbox using drag&drop.Here my /var/log/syslog

I have a problem with an Acer Aspire One Netbook running 10.04 (although this problem occurred in Karmic as well). The problem is that if the laptop is unplugged from the AC adaptor, the power indicator doesn't pick up the change, although the screen dims (I think the BIOS dims the screen). This usually wouldn't be a problem, but when the laptop runs out of battery, the machine goes completely dead, rather than hibernating at critical like it should.
I've followed the instructions on the wiki page but it still doesn't work. Obviously I'm quite worried about data loss here, especially since it's a physical hard disk!
My laptop has an internal Broadcom wireless adaptor. It works fine for basic Internet access, but I cannot change the MAC address with ifconfig. I would like to be able to change my MAC address. Since this is a laptop, the only option for me to do this is a USB wireless adaptor. But compatibility is very hit-or-miss. I've already tried two USB adaptors that had been stated to be compatible with Linux, and while both worked for basic functionality, neither allowed me to change the MAC address.
For whatever reason, this information seems very, very difficult to find. I have spent upwards of ten hours cumulatively searching forums (including this one) and other resources, and have found only vague, outdated, or outright false information regarding USB adaptors that support this. I believe I will be doing a great service to other users like myself by getting this question directly and conclusively answered for once, and the more responses, the better.
Questions: Do you have (or know of) a USB wireless adaptor that actually allows you to change the MAC address?
If so, what is the specific brand and model number, and what steps were necessary to install the drivers?
Firstly, apologies if there is anything incorrect about this request for help. Consider me an intelligent but ignorant first time Ubuntu user. I have a USB wifi adaptor, [URL]../B...ef=oss_product, which claims to be Linux compatible. It was supplied with a CD that includes a Linux directory but windows-only documentation. How do I install the drivers etc, the device is currently entirely unrecognised by Ubuntu 10.04.
I set up an older computer with Ubuntu 9.10 and tried to get my Linksys AE1000 Wireless N adapter to work. My first mistake was not checking in advance to see if this adapter would work, but I have taken the leap and I am intent on making it work. I ran lsusb and it gives me a device number (13b1:002f) so I know it can be seen and I have also installed indisgtk the GUI for Wirless drivers. I have tried some suggestions from other posts to no avail.
I just recently moved somewhere and the internet is wirelessly provided by the whole condo building. It is just a free and open network but I am trying to find a way to hook up my Xbox 360 to the internet. I do not have a wireless adaptor or a spare router, what I do have is my ubuntu laptop. Is there a way I can hook my xbox up to my laptop and bridge the connections so that I can finally connect to xbox live via my laptop?
The only connection to internet I have is via usb adaptor sitecom WL-352, under windows XP. Now I installed Ubuntu 10.10, and I cannot connect to internet via wireless. How can I do to use this adaptor?
I have two nic's connect to different networks. I would like to use one to pick up my email and connect to skype and the other for general internet access. Is this possible?
My friend has a Acer Aspire One netbook that runs on linpus. It has difficulty connecting via the internal wi-fi interface to the BT Homehub (802.11n) If I were to pick up a wi-fi adaptor such as:

Where could I find the drivers to make this USB stick work?
I just installed the Natty Beta and plugged in a Netgear WG111v3 USB wifi adapter. It is using the RTL8187B driver and worked out of the box. The problem it loses my connection every few minutes. Sometimes not for 10 or 15, sometimes like a minute or less. After it loses the connection, I have to uncheck "enable wireless" (which I assume is the equivalent of bringing down my wireless interface) and then check it again before it will let me reconnect. I don't want to try ndiswrapper because the card works great when it works, including monitor mode and packet injection!
I installed fedora 14 on a server appliance . After that , i decided to change the hardware , but now i have a problem !!! Fedora 14 on new appliance can not recognize network interfaces (eth*).
I have SUSE Linux 10.1 kernel 2.6.16.21.I copied the source RPM package for the broadcom netxtreme gigabit network adaptor and put it in the location /usr/src/linux as the instructions said. when I try to build it it is looking in the location 2.6.16.21-0.25-smp as you can see from the stdout shown below. So this version of the kernel is obviously 2.6.16.21-0.25-smp but I got the kernel source code for 2.6.16.21 from kernel.org. So the question is how to find the source code for 2.6.16.21-0.25-smp so that the driver will compile.---regards, WER
I have a usb wireless adaptor that I sometimes need to remove from the computer, but often it locks up my system upon removal, even after typing "ifconfig rausb0 down" Is there a Linux equivalent to the windows "safely remove hardware" applet for usb devices?
Just finishing up installing Ubuntu 10.04 on another laptop that has Win. 95 originally. Had read that the Ubuntu operating system won't recognize the card. I had used it in the same laptop, just for internet at home and at work. Is there anything I should know about making it work?I guess I should probably wait until it is finished installing, and then try the card.
I just installed 10.04, just migrating to linux. I can't see the network manager anywhere. I have the applet installed. I can't get the wifi adapter enabled. The chipset iwl8345 shows on the output when I run config. It seems to me that I need to get the NM up and that should doit. here is ishw:
I have been given an Edimax EW7318USG wireless adaptor,no drivers.I download 2008_0506 _RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.1.0.1.tar.zip from [URL]..onto my Linux computer using an adaptor from another computer.but cannot find out what to do next:. I have just installed Fedora 11 from a Linux Format magazine DVD.
I am using a Laptop with Fedora 12 and got a recent issue with the power management. I am not sure if this issue is Fedora-related, thereforeI have a (relatively) new main battery in my laptop and a (relatively) new Ac adapter (both not older than 6 months). Besides, a second battery is installed. Recently, I took out the second battery because I needed to use the CD rom drive. Then I put back the second battery (when the laptop was off, of corse).
After I switched the Laptop on again, everything works fine unless the laptop is thinking I am unplugging and plugging in the AC adapter every 3 seconds or so. I can see that behavior when clicking on the battery symbol, as the following terms change every few seconds:AC Adapter: Plugged inAC Adapter: Not Plugged inAlso I notice that the batteries are much slower charged than before when the laptop is operating, and even slower or halting when the laptop is powered off.
