Ubuntu :: HDMI On 11.04 With Dell Mini 1010

Aug 20, 2011

I have a Dell Mini 1010 (came with windows) that i have installed Ubuntu 11.04 on.

I had to update the graphic drivers to the EMGD to get video to work and not be jumpy and it also gave me more options of resolution.

The problem i have is that HDMI out wont work at all. When plugged into my TV it wont pick it up as a second monitor.

xrandr gives me: [URL]

Monitor settings shows: [URL]

OpenSUSE Network :: Dell Wireless 1397 WLAN Mini-Card & Dell Touchpad?

Jan 12, 2010

My Dell Vostro 1520's Dell Wireless 1397 WLAN Mini-Card must not have been set-up correctly, as the Network Manager won't even let me select the wireless tab. Please just explain to me, step by step, what exactly I must do to make it work! Additionally, I can't figure out how to disable my Touchpad's Tap to Click funtionality, which must be done if I'm to effectively use my current KDE installation of openSUSE

Ubuntu Installation :: Get From 9.04 To 10.4 On Dell Mini 9?

May 1, 2010

How best to get from 9.04 to 10.04 on my Dell Mini 9?

I hadn't upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 because I read that the WiFi card no longer worked with 9.10 on the DM9. What I see now indicates that to get from 9.04 to 10.04 I MUST go thru 9.10. If that is the case, I won't be able to download 10.04 because I won't have a WiFi connection.

Ubuntu :: 10.04 Broken In A Dell Mini 9?

Jun 11, 2010

it was working fine. Then when I tried to turn my Dell Mini 9 off it did not respond so I "forced" to turn it off with button. Now it does not find the OS! The only solution is to reinstall 10.04 netbook version again? (I'm downloading iso right now because I had already deleted it...) Will some kind of "repair broken version" option appear when I try to install it? And what about my docs? I lost some docs when I installed 10.04 and uninstalle the original version 8.04... I do not want to lost them again!

Ubuntu :: Dell Mini With 8.04 - Installing New 11.04

Sep 1, 2011

I have no clue what is taking up room now. I've went from like 2.gig to down to 1 gig. I have run the basic clean auto clean and such that I can find thru google. But I have been wanting to install the new 11.04. I have no ethernet cords around and how good is the chance I can upgrade and everything go smoothly and since I have no USB stick and only 1 gig of free space. Can I install with GMountiso <virtual drive>?

Ubuntu Installation :: Dell Mini 12 Won't Boot From USB?

Jan 11, 2010

I'm trying to boot my Dell Mini 12 from a USB boot disk with the ubuntu-9.10-alternate-lpia.iso image installed (I've also tried ubuntu-9.10-netbook-remix-i386.iso). I turn the machine on, press F12 to get to the boot menu, then select the USB disk. After this I just get a blinking cursor at the top left of the screen and nothing else happens.

Ubuntu :: Video Won't Play On A Dell Mini 10

Mar 18, 2010

i've got a dell mini 10 w/ 9.10 nbr on it, and videos played in either totem or vlc won't play, and result in the player crashing. it almost crashes the whole desktop. i can usually recover from ctrl-alt-f1 and killing the process or restarting the gui.

i've got no idea how to fix it. it's got a gma500 and that poulsubo (sp?) video driver. flash works reasonably well for a netbook though. i can watch videos vids ok- just have ot shy away from full screen videos, and especially not get tempted by full screen hi-def videos...

Ubuntu :: Turning Off Tap To Click On Dell Mini 10.04

Jun 5, 2010

I installed Touchpad and its says:
GSynaptics couldn't initialize. You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics

I find out at this link this link that I need to create a xorg.conf file by typing:
sudo Xorg -configure

In terminal. However, when I do I get the following message, and no such file gets created.
Fatal server error:

Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 Netbook On Dell Mini With Failed SSD

Jan 7, 2011

I have a Dell Mini 9 with a failed SSD. I created a bootable USB drive from the Ubuntu-10.10-netbook-i386.iso. It boots up the Dell Mini ok. If after selecting 'try ubuntu' from the Live USB and setting the desktop and wireless up, is there a way I could image that config on the same or different USB. It would be like installing Ubuntu 10.10 on a USB device instead of a HD. The Mini has 1G RAM.

Debian :: Console Resolution On Dell Mini 10?

Sep 16, 2010

I am running Lenny of a Dell Mini 10, using only the console. I want to get the resolution smaller that 80 on the horizontal axis, but I can't find the right setting for vga in /boot/grub/menu.lst.

Inserting various values makes the dell give me list of possible video modes at boot, but none of these are higher than 80xSomething. It offers VESA modes that are choosing these results in unreadably tiny text, and anyway I wouldn't know how to edit in order to make these mode take effect automatically.

Can anyone tell give me a value that works for vga on Dell Mini 10 that produces a smaller resolution that 80xSomething? If not, can someone suggests a different way to obtain the same result?

Debian Configuration :: Dell Mini 9 Mic -- Not Working?

Jun 30, 2011

Im running the latest Debian version, 6.0 on my Dell Mini 9.Webcam and sound work, but microphone is a no-go.In Alsamixer (1.0.23), I have Capture, Digital, and Mic settings all the way up. There are no options for adjusting "Front" mic settings. (May have been for older alsamixer versions?)In Sound Recorder, playback has loud noise/feedback? I'm not sure how to interpret the above, but I am just trying to offer as much relevant background information as I can.I've been scouring forums for the answer, but to no avail. Most questions/answers are from 2008, and couldn't find a solution. I'm not very handy with the Linux machine, but love to learn / am learning.

OpenSUSE Network :: Can't Get WLAN Up On Dell Mini 10v?

Jul 25, 2010

I can't get WLAN up on my Dell Mini 10v (BCM 4312)/openSUSE 11.3/LXDE. And yes, I have thoroughly read iwfingers's 'Getting your Wireless to Work'. After installing openSUSE 11.3 ifconfig can see eth0, l0 and wlan0. No WLAN running. dsmesq|grep firmware prompts me to '/usr/sbin/install_bcm43xx_firmware"

After having done that and reboot ifconfig can only see eth0 and l0. Installing broadcom-wl-5.60.48.36-7.pm.16.4.i586.rpm broadcom-wl-kmp-default-5.60.48.36_k2.6.34.0_12-7.pm.16.4.i586.rpm (current ones from Packman) does, Shall I try to install the drivers without installing the firmware first?

Why does broadcom-wl-kmp-default-5.60.48.36_k2.6.34.0_12-7.pm.16.4.i586.rpm install a new default kernel? Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04 had no problems with WLAN.

Ubuntu :: Dell Mini 10 Crashes And Burns On Resume From Suspend?

Jan 7, 2010

I'm running 9.10 nbr on this dell mini 10, which for the most part works very nicely. When I first installed it, it would sleep normally when closing the lid, and resume fine upon opening of the lid. Now when I open the lid, the first thing that's off is the mouse pointer is invisible. I can see different things dynamically highlighting as I move it around, but I can't see where it is. After a bit of that, the pointer comes back, but everything else crashes. The NBR menu deal dissappears and the desktop gets all messed up. I took a screenshot, but I don't have it available right now. I'll post it later. Eventually the whole things locks up. None of the ctr-al-fkey combos do anything- nothing. The only way to recover from this point is to do a hard reset.

I don't know if a recent update caused this problem or not. I don't use this computer every day, so I can't pinpoint exactly when this problem started- except that I firsted noticed it yesterday.

Ubuntu :: Gnome-power-manager Patch 9.10 On Dell Mini 10v?

Jan 11, 2010

I'm running Karmic on a Dell Mini 10v (Intel Atom) netbook, generally with very few problems and I've been happy with it. Recently I've had problems with suspend and wake when I close / open the lid - wicd no longer finding any networks, password prompt no longer appears, that sort of thing. A few days ago an icon popped up in the panel which appeared to do nothing, but mousing over it provided the following message:

"Session active, not inhibited, screen idle. If you can see this text, your display server is broken and you should notify your distributor. [URL]..Following the link, the blog of Richard Hughes appears to quite carefully describe the issue and then provides a patch (or two). However, being rather a n00b I have no idea what to do with either of the blocks of code he supplies - "man patch" in my terminal brings up "no manual entry for patch".

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Screen Resolution For Dell Inspiron Mini?

May 15, 2011

I am stuck in 800x576 resolution and don't know how to escape. I've tried changing xorg.conf but that caused my machine to grind to a halt and I had to copy the original .conf file back over before I could launch GNOME again. I've run lspci | grep VGA, and this is what I get:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation System Controller Hub (SCH Poulsbo) Graphics Controller (rev 07) When I run xrandr --verbose, I get:

Screen 0: minimum 800 x 576, current 800 x 576, maximum 800 x 576
default connected 800x576+0+0 (0x10 normal (normal) 0mm x 0mm
Identifier: 0x107
Timestamp: 30685

[Code]...

I'm trying to install Photran for Eclipse 3.6. I've managed to get 3.6 and it works but the next step involves choosing a package that I just can't see because my screen resolution is too small.

Ubuntu :: SSD Partitioning A Solid State Drive On A Dell Mini 9

May 26, 2010

I'm having a particular problem trying to partition a solid state drive on a Dell Mini 9; I'd like to install Ubuntu Netbook on the computer. The machine came with MS Windows XP on it. When I try to use the automated installer, it fails and quits at the partitioning stage. I have tried both fdisk and parted but both of these also fail and quit with errors when they try to write to the disk. I've also tried using Fedora and Knoppix to install and they both fail as well. I did check in the BIOS that the drive, supervisor and user passwords are clear.

Some technical bits that fdisk chucks out;
[ 1913.488878] ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0
[ 1913:494318] ata1.00: failed command: WRITE SECTOR(S)

[ 1913.511226] ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR }
[ 1913.517018] ata1.00: error: { ABRT }

can get access to partition the drive or diagnostics to tell what is the problem with the drive?

Ubuntu Networking :: Not Detecting Wireless Networks On Dell Inspiron Mini 10?

Jul 6, 2010

I recently installed Ubuntu Netbook Remix on my Dell Inspiron Mini 10, and for some reason it isn't detecting any wireless networks. The wireless works perfectly fine when I boot to Windows XP on the netbook, but not when I'm using Ubuntu. I tried troubleshooting using this htmlAt the "check for device recognition" step, the terminal tells me that it's disabled, but as far as I can tell there isn't a physical switch that allows me to turn the wireless on or off, and again, it works perfectly fine when I use XP. What should I do?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: No Sound Via HDMI On Dell XPS 1330

Jan 6, 2011

After a fresh install of 10.10 on a Dell XPS 1330 I cannot get any audio when connecting to an LCD TV via HDMI. I get video no problem but sound only from internal speakers.

Under System/Preferences/Sound on the Hardware tab there is an profile entry for 'Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output' but if I select this all goes silent.

I checked alsamixer and nothing is muted. The aplay -l output is below.

Fedora Networking :: Replacement Wifi Card - Dell Mini 10v?

Jan 6, 2011

I own a Dell Mini 10v netbook, I love the little thing, except I hate the Broadcom wireless card, I would much rather have a card that can use open source drivers. I have been searching on Google, looking on forums and looking on the hardware sites, but I cannot find a replacement card.

The problem is the tiny Dell has a tiny place to put the card and according to Dell and Broadcom, it is a "halfcard", which I have no idea what that is.

OpenSUSE Wireless :: WLAN On Dell Mini 10 (Inspiron 1012)?

Sep 26, 2010

I just want to report that I managed to get WLAN running on my Dell Mini 10 (Inspiron 1012) with OpenSuse 11.3 KDE.
This one contains a Broadcom 4312 WLAN card

Code:

lspci -vnn|grep Broadcom
07:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY [14e4:4315] (rev 01)
0b:00.0 Multimedia controller [0480]: Broadcom Corporation Device [14e4:1615]
Subsystem: Broadcom Corporation Device [14e4:1615]

I just installed the broadcom-wl and broadcom-wl-kmp-desktop packages from the packman repository. Then there is a new entry in the bootmanager menu. Using that one, WLAN works fine.By the way: Can somebody explain me the difference between the broadcom-wl-kmp-desktop, broadcom-wl-kmp-default, broadcom-wl-kmp-pae, broadcom-wl-kmp-xen packages? I did not find any documentation about that.
