Ubuntu Installation :: Noisy Pc. + Graphic Not Working?

Jan 22, 2010

I have recently installed 9.10 on my pc. All seems ok except there is a lot of noise coming from the tower now. It sounds like one of those old dial up modems that computers used to have. It starts right after the ubuntu starts. On the first install I had vertical lines on the screen that would become more broken the busier th computer was.So I installed again selecting to use lower graphics mode before installation. The lines have gone but I can't use avant window navigator as I get an error message saying the screen hasn't been composited. It invites me to use compiz to do this but a really can't see how.Also it won't let me select visual effects in appearance preferences. The most annoying thing is the noise like an old modem is constantly trying to connect to the web.

Ubuntu :: Display Crash - Graphic Card Is Not Working?

Jul 27, 2010

I try to boot up Ubuntu.It seems like everything goes on as normal (I can tell from sounds), but the screen becomes just a jumble of randomly colored lines (see photos; I couldn't get screenshots for obvious reasons).I also included some info about my computer (see pic), but I don't know anything about my graphics card, how do I find that?

P.S. I just installed a fresh version of 10.04 Lucid (dual-boot with WinXP), and as far as I remember, I haven't changed any settings or even installed any software yet!

Ubuntu :: Fan Is Really Noisy All The Time Even When Not Running Any App

Mar 27, 2011

Ok so've installed ubuntu. Looks great, but there's one problem: fan is really noisy, all the time, even when I'm not running any app...

I've changed the power preferences, and activated the option: "Spin down hard disks when possible", but didn't have any effect.

I have a toshipa satellite L-500, and used to use toshiba eco utility for windows but they don't make that for ubuntu.

Ubuntu :: Noisy Sound - Possibly Fan - Kubuntu 10.10

Dec 4, 2010

I'm a bit concerned about this. I've installed Kubuntu 10.10 tonight, and had tried it a week ago briefly without updates. Both times I've had this really loud sound which I'm guessing is the fan going a bit mad. Is this related to a newer kernel or something? Is it dealt with easily? This is a Toshiba Equium laptop from 2 1/2 years ago. I've got the Powersave setting on now in the hope this might stop it happening while I'm trying to read up on this and get advice.

After all the observed Linux progress since I've been using it I'd be quite annoyed if something botched in the OS kills my laptop. The computer got quite hot, even though its feet are rested on a wooden board that normally prevents this.

Ubuntu :: Lucid On Samsung NB30 - Slow Noisy Disk Access

May 2, 2010

I have installed Kubuntu Lucid on my Samsung NB30 netbook. Got everything working, but the disk access seems extremely slow and noisy. Whenever larger files are being processed (software installation), the disk makes a kind of rattling sound - looks like the head is moving back and forth between two or more locations. The disk seems o.k. so far - no io errors under Linux and Windows XP boots without problems.

Ubuntu Installation :: PC Without Graphic Card?

Feb 14, 2011

I installed ubuntu but when I first tried to login with my correct passwords it goes in a loop and prompt me to log in again. I went to recovery mode and selected safe mode then I was able to log in without any further prompts. As a result of what happened, I unlocked the login screen and changed the setup to allow me to log in automatically and in safe mode only. I am now stuck to login in safe mode only. I tried to unlock the login screen to change to default but no chance. If there is no graphic card in the PC would that have an effect on memory or login?

Debian Hardware :: Ralink RT2501 USB WiFi Adapter Hot And Noisy - Wheezy Freezes

Sep 14, 2014

I've just installed Debian Wheezy on my old Toshiba Satellite A10 (Intel celeron 2.20 GHz, 1GB Ram, 30 GB hard drive) and tried to connect to my home wifi network with a usb wifi adapter (Hamlet HNWU254G). lsusb in terminal says it is Ralink RT2501. Ethernet worked fine, so I installed firmware-ralink package, the adapter was recognized and I was able to connect.

However, I heard quite frequently a strange whistle and realized it came from the usb wifi adapter; it also got very very hot. Other strange thing: the computer some times freezes: screen flickering, loss of control of mouse and keyboard, need to shut down with power button.

At first I thought it was the video card not being powerful enough for Gnome (even classic), but then I installed Xfce4 and nothing changed. Instead, when working offline, freezes happen less frequently (but still happen).

I've tried the usb adapter on another laptop with wheezy: it gets hot, but there are no whistles and freezes.

Ubuntu Servers :: Installation Without Graphic Output?

Jan 3, 2011

I am trying to install Ubuntu Server on a tower with no graphic output (no graphic card, no graphic on the motherboard). Then, I�ve solved two ways:

1. (What I wanna try): Take a graphic card "rent", just for the installation. And remove it after.
2. Take the Server HD and install it on another computer, then replace.

Ubuntu Installation :: Two Monitors On Two Graphic Cards?

Jun 10, 2011

I'm using Ubuntu 11.04. I should have two graphic cards, and they are both detected in the terminal.

Code:
lspci | grep VGA
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation C77 [GeForce 8200] [10de:084b] (rev a2)
03:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400GS] [10de:10c3] (rev a2)

Both cards have monitors plugged into their VGA ports, but only one of the monitors shows a display. The other monitor goes into power saver mode right after start up. Nvidia X Server settings only shows a single graphics card (the 8200) and a single monitor (detect monitor finds nothing). Going through Prefences: Monitors also only shows a single monitor and doesn't detect a thing when detect monitors is clicked.

Monitor one has 1440 x 900 resolution and I'm not sure what the resolution of Monitor two is supposed to be, but it displays rather nicely at being set to 1440 x 900.

Both graphics cards are detected and usable in Vista, but a quick switch of the plugs shows that only the 8200 is registering in Ubuntu.

Ideally I want to have a dual monitor set up, with one screen showing documents or pictures with the other using Gimp or Blender.

Ubuntu Installation :: Graphic Crash When Installing?

Jul 9, 2011

I've downloaded both Kubuntu and Ubuntu and tried to install them. Both methods (wubi and cd).However I encounter the same problem, I think it's a graphic crash because I see some patern of pixels right after it loaded.I've made a pic (here) using my phone.However this problem doesn't occure in Ubuntu 8.04 (8.04 because I ordered some CD at that time).An option would be to install 8.04 then upgrade till the latest, but I'm worried about encoutering the problem right after that.Some specs:AMD Athlon II X4 3.0 GHz2 GB RAM DDR2NVidia 240GT160 GB HDD

CentOS 5 :: 5.3 Graphic Installation Hangs?

Apr 16, 2009

I'm attempting to install CentOS 5.3 on my IBM IntelliStation Z Pro 6221/37G, powered by some extra equipments as nVidia NV44 GeForce 6200 video card, MV88SX6041 SATA II Controller, 2x1GB DRAM.

The problem: CentOS 5.3 DVD i386 didn't install, the screen becomes unreadable because of vertical bars just after anaconda start running. Choosing at boot time different "linux resolutions" did not help, as well as the "text mode" still useless because Logical Volumes need to be created/handled and the graphical interface is mandatory.

Same result booting CentOS 5.2 Live CD. This sounds really strange to me. I checked iso images against their md5sum and are ok. Centos 5.3 x86_64 does not boot yet :"Your CPU does not support long mode", evem they are 2 x Xeon 2.8GHz / 512KB

Fedora Installation :: 13 - Raid0 - Graphic Card Or Something Else

Oct 11, 2010

I've already got two installs without much problems.. one on my laptop and another fedora13 install on an older comp just to test it a bit before installing it on my main comp. But now I've got a problem. Both those install went without problems but when I started installation on my main comp first I've noticed some graphic problems when there is installation started and there is mouse and fedora 13 welcome installation screen. there are some like glitches or something no idea how to describe them.. like bad pixels in small upper part of the screen. But ignoring that everything went OK up to the part where I can choose a standard discs or non starts like sans and stuff..

When I choose standard disc installation just freeze there. No idea what is happening. Only this that came across my mind is that there is a problem with raid maybe? There are 2x640Gb HDD in raid0, there is win7 installed, and another 1Tb HDD, non-raid member disk, where I would like to install Fedora and have a dual boot. Still got programs that I need win for I'm afraid. Installation went smooth on laptop and another comp but there is no raid so I'm guessing that could be a problem. This comp where installation froze is in short:
