Ubuntu :: Installing 10.10 Netbook Remix Edition Onto A Acer Aspire One Netbook?

Jan 18, 2011

I am having trouble installing Ubuntu 10.10 netbook remix edition onto a Acer Aspire one netbook. I am attempting to install the OS from a 16GB PNY usb drive w/ the usb-universal installer and ubuntu 10.10 netbook remix .ISO

The reoccurring problem that I am encountering is that when I boot from the USB-drive and begin to install everything seems to be working, and then it is stuck at the menu where it asks who are you?; and of course i have filled in everything asked and at the bottom where you can look at what its doing in the terminal/detail section all it says is ready when you are, and the forward tap is unselectable.

General :: Resolution Overclocking Using Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.04 On An Asus Eee 4G Netbook

Aug 30, 2010

Why i cant change from 800x480 to 1024x600, that this model of EEE pc doesnt support anything higher than 800x480 at the 10:1 ratio...

Firstly my question is, is it ACTUALLY possible to 'overclock' this type of netbook to run a higher res?

Im running ubtuntu netbook remix 10.04 and am new to linux (again, so sorry) so be nice, and ive tried getting my head around this 'sudo' stuff, and the xorg.conf file (which is nowhere to be found) and ive even tried a program calld astray but im pretty sure ive exhausted my patience as trying to self-teach . . .

And ive also tried to much around with xrandr or whatever that command was.. but i cant really get my head around it, and it kept telling me the resolution didnt exist ect...

Ubuntu :: Can't Remove Plams-netbook From Kubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10?

Mar 7, 2010

For the past 2hrs I have been struggling to make KDE launch plasma-dekstop instead of plasma-netbook, but all in vain.I removed, then purged plasma-netbook and plasma-netbook-default-settings packages but after logging out and re-logging in the Netbook UI was back! After restarting the system now I can't even seem to get the KDM. I am greeted with a black screen.--- I restarted the system again and the nasty little bugger is back again! This is so frustrating. How do I get plasma-desktop to load instead?---- Great now I can see that plasma-desktop and plasma-netbook both are running simultaneously! netbook on top of desktop. So my final Q is how do I stop plasma-netbook from loading?

Ubuntu Installation :: ASUS Netbook Heating Up When Using Netbook 10.04

Apr 30, 2010

I installed Ubuntu Netbook 10.04 and immediately noticed the keyboard of my eeepc 1000HE was abnormally warm. Since I dual boot XP I booted to XP and found the fan running faster to compensate for the previous heat. This did not happen on Ubuntu-the fan just was barely running. I had to place the side of the netbook in order to feel the fan running. I issued "sensors" in terminal and it showed 67 degrees C for the cpu temp. Is the latest Ubuntu such a resource hug that it heats up the CPU?

Ubuntu :: Cant Boot Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Remix On Netbook

Sep 19, 2010

Im a new linux user and so far im loving it, problem is i just tried installing Ubuntu 10.04 netbook remix onto my Compaq mini 311 (via usb) and at first i couldnt even install from the flash stick...finally managed to by formatting the flash with an HP tool and then creating the bootable Live OS with "Linux Live USB creator 2.6."

I selected to use the whole Hard disk to install (the hard disk was empty anyway as i recently formated the drive which had windows 7 on it)

The the installation completed successfully but the problem is that after rebooting the OS wouldnt boot, leaving me with a flashing cursor or _ on the top left of the screen...

I have tried everything i could think of, using different Usb creators, formatting the hard drive before re-installing but for some reason im still left with the same blinking cursor after every install.

I have just installed the regular version of ubuntu 9.04 which works perfectly after installing but id much rather use the netbook version of 10.04

(I assume the issue has something to do with the bootloader but im completely new to the topic so cant really troubleshoot)

Ubuntu :: No Connections With A Netbook

Jan 26, 2010

I installed 8.04 on my EeePC 2005. I use the Windows dual boot option. The netbook's hard drive was factory set with two partitions c and d. Windows XP is on c; I put Ubuntu on d. In Windows, I have both wireless and ethernet (sp?) working fine.In Ubuntu, I have no wireless and no land line. The manual connection wizard pop-up shows no networks anywhere. How can I get Ubuntu connected? Would it be simpler to load another distro like Easy Peasy on top of Ubuntu? Or should I delete Ubuntu and start over? Or is there an easy fix for 8.04?

Ubuntu :: Can't Get Netbook To Load?

Feb 26, 2010

I could use some help running fsck. My SDA1 appears to be having issues. I cant get my netbook to load.

I popped in a USB drive with Ubuntu on it so I could try to run fsck on it, but I ran into an issue.

According to Ubuntu, this drive is using the "ext3/ext4" file system. I read an online guide for using fsck and it mentioned that I must designate what file system I am running or it will default to ext2 and corrupt my files. So what command should I run so that fsck knows that I have the ext3/ext4 file system?

Also, could someone check to see if the commands I am running are correct (these are starting from the terminal from the USB drive)?

# init 1
# umount /dev/sda1
# fsck.ext3 /dev/sda1

The third command is where I am confused as to what I should type.

Ubuntu :: Change Netbook From 9.10 To UNR?

Apr 24, 2010

I installed USB Startup Disk Creator to a USB Flash Drive from a live 9.10 CD. It booted up OK and of course I ended up with 9.10 on my Netbook. I really want to try the UNR version as a better fit to the 10-inch display. What is the easiest way to switch my Netbook from 9.10 to 9.10 UNR? I sure need a simple and clear approach.

Ubuntu :: Cannot See The Whole Screen On Netbook

Oct 12, 2010

I have been playing with Maverick (and this was the same on earlier versions).When I am on my netbook (a 10.1" compaq mini with resolution set at the highest setting - 1024x600) I cannot see the whole window. This happens frequently in Eveolution where the bottom of the window is 'missing' so I cannot click ok when changing setting ect. This is extremely annoying and it is the only reason why I am still running Windows on my netbook.

Ubuntu :: Add Applets In Netbook DE?

Oct 20, 2010

Is it possible to add panel applets in the netbook desktop environment? (I don't know what this DE is called.)

I know how to do it if I log in with the usual Gnome DE, but applets added there don't seem to show up when I log in with the netbook DE.

Is there a configuration file somewhere that can be manually edited to do this?

Ubuntu :: Can't Get Netbook To Boot Off USB

Nov 22, 2010

I just bought an ASUS Eee PC 1001PXB and for the life of me I can't get it to boot off of my startup disk I just made with 10.04 for netbooks. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I went in and changed the order so that the 'removable device' was first, then the cd-rom (which isn't attached, I didn't get one) then the hard drive. The flash drive flashes a bit during startup like it's trying to read it, but then windows boots up.

Ubuntu :: Why Is 10.10 Netbook So Slow?

Jan 7, 2011

Yeah so with a fresh installation of it, the unity toolbar is rediculously slower than 10.04, and there are lots of typos such as when using update manager it says update file, and the driver manager says "additiona file".Are there any quick fixes to the speed or anything or should I just go back to windows or 10.04 on my netbook?

Ubuntu :: No Boot Menu On Netbook

Jan 3, 2010

I currently have an Acer Aspire One D250 netbook with Windows 7 Starter Edition, and I've decided to load Ubuntu 9.10 on it.

I put Ubuntu on my JumpDrive using this , and then began following the instructions from here, and I got to the part where it wanted me to enter my Boot Menu by holding F2 to enter setup... but it sent me straight to a menu that only allowed me to boot from Windows 7 or to run a Windows Memory System Diagnostic. Advanced options by pressing F8 only allowed me to change how Windows 7 started, but no where in the setup does it allow me to enter the boot menu and tell it to boot from my jump drive.

I'm not sure if it's a limitation on my model, the OS, or if I'm am missing something obvious. I've beaten Google to death, but the only thing I have gotten from there are topics on people trying to boot from XP versus Windows 7 on a duel partitioned hard drive, or people who's laptops won't start up at all.

I also tried running the "Help Boot from CD" that came on the jumpdrive, but it said there was a system error and that it could not install properly.

Ubuntu :: Netbook Does Not Hibernate When Lid Is Closed?

Jan 16, 2010

My netbook does not hibernate when lid is closed. Sometimes it does but usually not. At first I was thinking it was getting confused after recharging, thinking it was still in AC mode. I suppose it could be some process running in the background but don't know how to identify which one would cause that. If that were the case, would I be able to manually go to Hibernate?

I've checked my preferences and "On Battery Power" "When Lid is closed" is set to Hibernate.

I have an ASUS 1000. I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 9.1 karmic.

Ubuntu :: Streaming Video To Netbook?

Feb 2, 2010

I have a ubuntu desktop running 9.04 and a Acer Netbook running UNR 9.04.

Using NFS I have shared my videos from the desktop and have it automounted at start up on the netbook. I can navigate to the files but once I click play, the netbook locks up.

Is this a limitation on my hardware or is there a better way to "stream" these vids?

Ubuntu :: Differences Between Netbook And Desktop

Feb 13, 2010

what the actual differences are between the different versions?Is it simply in the interface or does netbook have different services running by default, different hardware detection or anything else that makes the system run any differently? I know netbook doesn't have compiz installed by default but is the rest of the package set the same? I ask because I have been having various problems with boot and audio along with a few other niggles. I was running the desktop edition through the betas and the RC with no problems at all but I installed lucid final from a netbook edition iso and have done two more fresh installs from netbook iso and seem to be having a lot more issues.
