I have given up trying to get the hauppage 950q to work on ubuntu 9.10. I just cannot get it to work. tried kaffeine, tv time, tvhead, mythtv and none of them work. So before I return it I wanted to know if it could work under a virtual machine (tiny XP). Has anyoe tried it? Also what VM do you recommend to be able to get the usb connection to work out the box?

I am trying to get a Hauppage Win TV DVB Tuner Card working in Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop 32bit.So far when running the scan tool from dvb-apps I get the following as an example:
>>> tune to: 697833000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_AUTO:QAM_16:TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K:GUARD_INTERVAL _1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE (tuning failed)
Though I installed the driver from 'Additional Drivers' and dmesg gives me:
[ 9.455847] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 249
[ 9.457078] IR LIRC bridge handler initialized
[Code]...
I have Ubuntu Karmic 9.10 with this card, its just works without any configuration but I have a big problem.
I start Kaffeine 1.0-svn3 and I can see the last dvb-T channel but when I want to change to other channel I can't see it, I have to restart Kaffeine, or wait to get the "Read error from:" error press Ok and select the channel.
Has anyone had any success with installing the HVR-950Q TV Tuner card? I am trying it after giving up on the hvr-1500c (15 months trying!).

What used to work flawlessly in F14 now does not work in F15. I have done a fresh installation of F15 and all seemed to go well other than a few minor tweaks. In F14 I had an /etc/fstab file that worked well but in F15 does not work. I have 3 external USB drives, mybook, black & StoreIt. With F14 my fstab worked very well and booted regardless of weather or not any particular drive was connected at any given time. Typically I have the mybook and black connected at home and the StoreIt connected at work, but regardless it would boot and work without any problems.

View 5 Replies View RelatedOn my computer I can't get the awesome 10.04 to be fully installed. At the first time start the kernel crashes during the boot because of some non-responding thing over the network. At least that's what it says. But because it's kinda weird for an OS to not be installed I looked further. I uninstalled it, updated my motherboard, defragmented everything and reinstalled Ubuntu. Still the same problem. I uninstalled it again and tried to install 9.10. That worked, but I can't get it to be upgraded since it won't boot if I let the upgrader do it's thing. Anyone suggestions to get 10.04 installed? Preferably directly with the 10.04 iso.

I am attempting to set up a FTP server. I am going with vsftpd. I followed the steps in the documentation for Ubuntu 10.10
[url]
I installed vsftpd and made one change to the vsftpd.conf file. I uncommented the chroot_local_user=yes so that my users only have access to their home directories.
I then restarted vsftpd.
Now going over the another machine I attempted to access the server using filezilla. I configured the network connection using the wizard and tested it so I know filezilla is configured correctly.
I am attempting to access the site by login into the website so I am using the following parameters:
When I attempt to connect I get the following error in filezilla.
Does anyone know how I can test to see if vsftpd is installed correctly and running? Any idea as to why I am getting this error? Do I need to install another software package to get vsftpd work? Do I need to turn any modules on? Did I miss something during my setup?
I have an external USB HDD enclosure (Rocketfish USB 3.0 2.5" SATA) with a 350GB hard drive installed. The device is detected and operates fine on Windows 7, OS X, and other Linux installations that I've tried (Ubuntu 10.04 and Debian 6 live). However, it does not work on two different Ubuntu 11.04 installations. I get the following sort of syslog entries:

I have a Windows ME (Mistake Edition) that I wish to convert to Linux. My two choices are Ubuntu and Xubuntu; the system has the proper requirements for both. I made the two LiveCDs so I could test both of them and choose which one I liked more. However, both CDs do nothing. The Ubuntu one appears empty when I look at it on this computer (and is fine on my XP); the Xubuntu one appears normal. Yet both CDs do nothing when I boot the computer.
Is there something I can do to make them work? Or do I have to turn to another way to install Linux?
Its been a while since I have used Linux, going back to the early realeases of Red Hat and Mandrake.
Decided to give it another shot and downloaded the 9.10 Desktop ISO.
I get tot the menu screen where I can Try Ubutu, Install Ubuntu, Test Drive, Test Memory ect.
Selected Install and it gets to the Ubuntu Icon screen, then goes to a black screen and hangs PC. Tried the Try Ubuntu Option same thing.
Redownloaded the ISO and burnt it again at 4x Speed, exactly the same thing. Created a bootable USB drive, tried installing it that way, same again. A little frustrated by this point.
Downloaded the Alternative Text Based Install, Installed fine, but as soon as Ubuntu Loads and gets to the Ubuntu Icon it goes black and hangs. code...
Yesterday I tried to update Firefox from 3.0.19 to 3.6 using this instructions: [URL]
Installation went without problems, but now I can not start Firefox! The FF icon in the taskbar changed to a globe and says "Namoroka - FF pre-release" but firefox doesn't start by clicking onto it. I tried to manually remove all firefox packages and reinstalling either 3.0 or 3.6 but same problem again. I also installed epiphany too, but it shows the error "epiphany cannot be used at the moment, because initialization of mozilla failed".
I want to use the new Firefox (or old one, if 3.6 not possible) in Ubuntu!
P.S.: Now I'm writing with FF from my Windows installation under Wine.
I installed Linux Mint 8 (which I believe is a flavor of Ubuntu 9.10) and I have everything good except for the GDebi and APT installations
Previously I was able to open a .DEB file when Firefox prompted me to choose what to do, now it doesn't.
Same thing with the APT option. With Getdeb apps I use to be able to click the INSTALL NOW and it would prompt me to install using APT. Like the GDebi, it doesn't do this anymore.
How can I get it so Firefox can open .DEB files in it along with the APT command
I am trying to get my 3M touchscreen to work in Ubuntu. Presently, I have the usbtouchscreen module loaded -- which results in touches being recognized, but the y-axis is backwards (ie: if I press at the top, it shows up at the bottom). Given that hal is depreciated, the only place I could note for configuration options the xorg.conf.d directory. But, I'm unsure what needs to be added there.
Additionally, I am confused over usbtouchscreen vs evdev vs evtouch -- which is supposed to be used at this point?
Ok, some system info:
I am running Ubuntu 10.04

Maybe this isn't a problem, but I'm a complete Ubuntu newb and am having trouble getting it to boot. I previously had Ubuntu 9.10 installed but had a HD failure, so after using an old hard drive and installing Ubuntu, it doesn't seem to boot up. During the boot process a screen comes up that says, "GNU Grub 1.97 beta." It lists 4 options, I apologize for not writing them down, but each one I select, it says something to the effect of, "No boot device." Again, sorry for not writing that down, but I was hoping someone would be able to figure it out. If you need more information, I can copy it down tonight. I guess I'm just not sure what to do next. When I previously installed Ubuntu, it just went straight to the desktop.

At my last update, apparently some 2+ years ago, it was possible to run the system update first and once installed, let it check and download any corrections and changes. Does that not work anymore?

I used to have windows xp. But recently I started having a message at startup telling me that my disk might be failing and I should run the test (which would crash and reboot th laptop). Then after a while windows wont even start. So I tried to use ubuntu netbook live from a usb and it is working fine ! I can even access all my data on the hard disk, although it is telling me that the hard disk is failing and that it has 1024 bad sectors. I have only one hard disk and one partition (120 GB). Can I just install ubuntu and somehow block the bad sectors? (I don't want windows anymore) and is there any way I could keep my old data on the hard disk without backing it up (it is not really important btw).
