Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 To Old 1GHhz Athlon Based Desktop Machine?

Jan 14, 2011

I'm trying to install 10.10 to my very old 1GHhz Athlon based desktop machine, but when I boot with the CD in the drive, the machine just hangs at the 1st screen. Pressing Esc during boot to see what is going on, I find that the boot always gets as far as:"Checking battery status..."

As a desktop machine, it doesn't even have a battery. Is there anything I can do about this? Can I disable this check? The CD worked fine in a work machine (and quite nice it looked too btw!)

Ubuntu :: Aspire One 521 Athlon II Neo Procesor K125 Installation

Aug 9, 2010

Trying to install 10.04 and remix 10.04 in model AO521-3165 Aspire One 521 Athlon II Neo Procesor K125 gives an installation failure. (Tested in several AO521 giving the same result all of them with the latest bios update)

a) The first message: Disabling IRQ # 18

b) 10.04 in mode installing without modification gets into a 3 sound loop and then halts completely.

c) remix in mode installing without modification gets into the gnome screen but the keyboard is completely dead.

d) Installing both of them in the hard disk can partition hard disk but then the system asks the name and password and again the keyboard is dead.

Here is another message trying to install BackTrack4R1 giving maybe more clues: [Firmware bug] PCI MMConfig at (mem 0xe0000000 - 0xe03fffff not reserved in ACPI motherboard resources i8042.C: Can�t read CTR while initializing i8042 irq18 nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpool" option) Disabling IRQ #18

e) The same result with Open Suse.

Ubuntu Installation :: Setup A LAMP Server On An Old Desktop Machine?

Jan 27, 2010

I am a total noob with regards Linux so will undoubtedly frequent this board asking some lame questions in the coming weeks. At present I am trying to setup a LAMP Server on an old desktop machine I have lying about, however there is not going to be a keyboard, monitor or mouse attached beyond the installation process. My question simply is am I best installing the server or desktop version of Ubuntu for this requirement?

I have been playing with Desktop 9.04 and found it tough to use headlessly, however understand that Server 9.04 fully supports headless access. Being a newbie I do prefer to use the GUI to make changes and generally play around, so a UI such as GNOME would be essential. Having read about I understand the best way to access remotely is to install SSHServer and VNCServer and then login over SSH and VNC into the box.My remote machine I will use to connect to Ubuntu is a Windoze 7/XP machine.

Fedora :: Moving An LVM Based Virtual Machine

Jul 28, 2010

I'm hoping this is the right sub-forum, if not please move this post. My question is, how would I go about moving an LVM based virtual machine to a different host? Can I just use dd to copy the entire logical volume to a file, move the file to the other host, then again use dd to copy the file onto a newly created logical volume? I'm using KVM by the way.

Ubuntu Networking :: [10.04] Netgear WPN311 Setup In EVGA-based Machine

Nov 18, 2010

I should preface this by saying I'm pretty much new to ubuntu. I was a nerd back when I used windows, so I'm fairly knowledgeable about it, but I lost interest right before switching to linux, so I haven't learned much past basic navigation.

I bought a WPN311 wireless card for my homebuilt machine a while back and still can't seem to get it to work. One person told me that after upgrading to Lucid it should work out of the box but that's not the case. It seems my computer doesn't even recognize that the card is plugged in. When I open the drop-down menu to choose which network connection to use, any sort of wireless option doesn't even show up.

My machine:

EVGA 112 CK-NF68-T1 motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E6750
Two sticks OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400
ATI Radeon X1650 Pro
And the Netgear WPN311 in question

lspci output:

Code:

00:00.0 Host bridge: nVidia Corporation C55 Host Bridge (rev a2)
00:00.1 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C55 Memory Controller (rev a1)

Server :: Have A OS Based On Debian Configured And Installed On A Machine That Controls All The Network?

Feb 23, 2011

I want to know something: i have a OS based on Debian configured and installed on a machine that controls all the network. Then, I can access it via another machine (with Windows for example) (connected by crossover cable or using a switch) by a web browser where I can do everything, including adding hosts, adding users, configure mail servers, voip, configure domains, etc etc etc..I would like to install Nagios on my server but I would like to monitor the hosts, routers that I have on the network using the Windows machine. How can I do that? Isn't it supposed to access the nagios information only in the machine where it is installed?

Ubuntu :: Install 10.10 On AMD Athlon Laptop?

Apr 28, 2011

A few days back, I burned a CD with Ubuntu 10.10 (maverick?). Have since installed 10.10 on an old desktop (pentium ii, 1.15 ghz) and it boots up ok - (apart from a 'freeze' issue which varies from 10 mins to 2 1/2 hours) Anyway, my immediate problem is I'm using the SAME CD to install 10.10 on a AMD Athlon laptop (which previously ran Windows XP). The installation process starts with the usual: TRY/INSTALL screen - I select INSTALL. The whole process runs for about 40 mins, using the entire 60gb drive (I've got rid of XP). The final few messages are: 'installing system', 'copying installation logs' 'installation complete' - 'restart now'. So, the CD is ejected after which I get a string of '2380 nnnnnn i/o error device sector 533280'messages. Then, 'will now restart' At the restart, up comes the UBUNTU screen and the intro clip...and there it stays. My question, does anybody know what could be happening - if anything?? Remembering that this CD was installed on the desktop.

Personally I have an intel PC which runs Ubuntu 8.04 smoothly. I tried booting the live-cd from an AMD athlon and encounterred the above mentioned message as an error after loading.

I can insert the floppy drive but doubt that would work?

General :: JavaScript Desktop Application With HTML Based UI Front-end?

May 20, 2010

I have created which uses Gnome Seed which is in the Ubuntu repositories (although the newest version needs to checked out from Git to allow it to work) and SeedKit which unfortunately isn't in synaptic but needs to be downloaded. The links to get the source for both projects are as follows:

[URL]

The proof of concept is a JavaScript/HTML based frontend of Gnome's Log Viewer. It doesn't replicate 100% of Log Viewers functionality but it produces the basics of it which is to display the contents of Linux log files. The tutorial and link to download the source files are as follows:

For more information about SeedKit and HTML based User Interfaces are in my blog, link for that post is as follows:

Debian :: CPU Temperature Monitoring Question On Athlon II X2 250?

Sep 24, 2010

So i hava a ASUS M3N78-VM mobo and recently i got a Athlon II 250 CPU tp replace my aging Athlon 3200+. I installed the BIOS update 1407 that includes support for this CPU. I have Debian Squeeze installed.

I have installed the 2.6.35 kernel from experimental and this has the k10temp module that is made for the k10 series AMD CPUs (Athlon II etc). But there is also the atk0110 ACPI module that gets sensor readings fom voltages, MB and CPU temps from the motherboard (i think so). The issue is this: if i run sensors i get this:

Code:
# sensors
atk0110-acpi-0
Adapter: ACPI interface
Vcore Voltage: +1.07 V (min = +0.80 V, max = +1.80 V)

[Code]...

Notice the difference between the 2 module's reported temperature for the CPU (34 C vs 19.2 C). I rebooted the computer and entered the BIOS - it has shown the values shown by the acpi sensor (it increased rapidly to 38-39 but gone back to 34-35 after i loaded the OS). Does this mean that the k10temp module reports erroneous temperature or that everybody else (BIOS + ACPI sensor) is wrong and i have an ice cool CPU?

Ubuntu :: AMD Athlon XP 3200+ Consistently At 99% Usage Whenever Any Application Besides Xorg Is Open And Running

Jun 12, 2011

I have a desktop PC that I built back when I was a teenager, running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and nothing else. I love it, but for one thing: the dang CPU usage hits at least 99% whenever any application besides Xorg is open and running. This doesn't affect performance too much, but if Windows XP Home Edition never gets close to 100% usage, then I figure there's something going on.

Fedora Hardware :: Athlon X2 CPU Frequency: Wikipedia Versus Cupinfo

Jan 24, 2010

The Wikipedia says that the frequency of the Athlon 64 X2 3800+ is 2000 MHz.

For that processor, on FC 12 64 bit
cat /proc/cpuinfo
shows:
cpu MHz : 1000.000
for each processor.

Is that supposed to "add up" to 2000 MHz for both? My old GA-K8N-Ultra SLI motherboard has its BIOS set for "top performance", so I hesitate increase any clock speed or multiplier.

Ubuntu :: Kill Window Based On Based On Title Instead Of PID?

Apr 24, 2010

I am working on a set up, and I like to be able to toggle compiz on and off, or toggle dualscreen on and off. The thing is, I also have conky on my desktop as well as a terminal window embedded in my desktop (that requires compiz). So, when I turn comiz off, or resize my desktop, I want to be able to reposition conky/embedded-terminal and the terminals position is relative to my conky position and the size of my virtual desktop.

I can do this all fine, except that to reposition the terminal I need to kill it then reopen it. But if I kill gnome-terminal it kills ALL gnome-terminals instead of just my embedded one. How can I specifically close my embedded one and leave any others untouched? Lets say that the title of my embedded terminal is "trans777"Also, the trans777 titled gnome-terminal will be killed when compiz is not running.
