Apr 30, 2010

What's the procedure for updating from Lucid Beta 2 to Lucid LTS? Is it just "apt-get upgrade"? Or would I be better off with a clean install?

Software :: Lucid-wx Instead Of Lucid ?

Mar 23, 2011

I recently installed Ubuntu 10 and when checking the version using system|about it says:

Code:

You are using Ubuntu 10.10 - the Maverick Meerkat - released in October 2010 and supported until April 2012. Now, I run some shellscripts and they check the distro. lucid-wx is not in supported versions but lucid is. Where can I change the lucid-wx to lucid?

Is it somewhere in a textfile or so? I cannot find it in /etc/issues or using man -n of man -a or so.

Also, it is not mentioned in /etc/lsb-release.

Ubuntu :: How Much RAM Can 11.04 Recognize And Use Accordingly

May 28, 2011

I understand that RAM capabilities is mainly based on your mobo, but lets say the mobo can handle 32gigs (Exaggerating here). I'm currently running 2 gigs on my current system, and am thinking about bumping it up to maybe 4, 5, or even 6... I know my system can handle more than 2 (which is why I'm doing this, and I'm trying to do high RAM tasking things) so how much RAM can ubuntu 11.04 64 bit OS handle, recognize, and use to potential? I've googled it plenty of times, but I'm only coming up with people saying "oh it's whatever your mobo is capable of," which is true, but I want to know if there is like a pre-determined limit that 11.04 64 bit OS will only use if installed.

Like how some 32 bit OS will only use lets say 3.0-3.5 gigs of an installed 4 gigs. I don't want to go out of my way and spend money on a few extra gigs if my system will only recognize a portion of it. I know my 64 bit will recognize whatever I'm willing to pay (which won't be too much more ) but I'm just curious.

Ubuntu :: 10.04 Won't Recognize External HDD Or USB?

Jul 12, 2010

I'm trying to restore my laptop through the Ubuntu 10.04 Live CD. A while ago, Windows 7 died. I've tried everything possible to make it work again to no avail. At first I gave up on recovering my files and proceeded to formatting it, but that didn't work either, although it would boot from the CD, it would get stuck. It's as if the HDD couldn't be accessed.

After trying almost every version of Windows available, I decided to give Ubuntu a shot. I have used Ubuntu before and I thought maybe I could use the Live CD to see whether I could access the HD or not and, if not, claim the warranty (I bought the computer 4 months ago). I downloaded Ubuntu 10.04 and booted from it and was able to access all my files.

I wanted to move my files to an external HDD through the USB, but I plugged it in and nothing happened, no icon appeared on the desktop or on the Computer directory. I plugged in a normal USB flash drive, and no icon appeared. The funny thing is that the USB led lit up, so I knew it was connected to the computer.

I thought maybe Ubuntu wasn't mounting the drives and that I had to do it manually, so I ran both the lsusb and fdisk -l commands on the terminal with both drives plugged in and neither of them appeared listed. I even opened the message log to see if there was some reaction when I plugged it in, but nothing worked. :S

I restarted the computer and opened the BIOS to see whether the USB drive was enabled, as I had previously disabled some options trying to restore Windows, but the external HDD was being recognized by the computer; on the boot list it showed the name and serial of the drive, so that wasn't it.

I downloaded previous versions of Ubuntu, thinking maybe it had something to do with that (although I know it shouldn't), and the same thing happened: I could access the internal HDD but the external drives weren't being recognized.

I've browsed through the forums, going over the same procedures as other people with the same problem, but nothing works for me and now that I know that my files are safe, I don't want to format it anymore before saving at least the most important ones ><

I think I have 2 options before I run out of ideas. I could use GParted or Partition Editor from the Live CD to resize the partition to make enough space to install Ubuntu on my computer (I was thinking of doing it, anyway) and then fix everything from there instead of from the Live CD (if that changes anything), but I'm afraid that the files in the partition could become corrupted or damaged, and I don't want that. The other option would be to install Ubuntu on the external HDD and boot from it, as it WOULD HAVE to recognize it.

I want to know if there is any way to solve it before resorting to the latter option, as the HDD is not mine and I don't feel right partitioning it.

Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Recognize The IDE HD But XP Can?

Jul 26, 2010

I had a motherboard 'POP' and die. I replaced it, the CPU, and ram along with a new PS. Then the IDE CDROM always read 'zero' for any media placed in it, so I bought a new USB DVD/CD do-all drive (LG G0 The system was desktop Dual (sic) Boot with WinXP. The XP would boot from the GRUB, but no Ubuntu. I used >find /vmlinuz and got H0,6, right where it always was. But I could not get it to boot

So I reformatted the IDE with Winxp (all my good stuff is on a SATA drive that I left out of all this )) unplugged. The Live CD wouldn't find the IDE hard Drive XP had just installed on- same as BEFORE I reformatted it. I tried all the distros I have (Puppy through Slackware, Suse, Sabayon, etc) .

Nothing could find the IDE drive. I flashed BIOS on the new MB-no help. I put Linux on a Flash drive and booted from there- no help No Partitioner can SEE the IDE...but XP runs on the IDE C:/ just fine (ntfs for C:, with 70GB unpartitioned, waiting for Linux) I am at a loss.

As far as I know, if the BIOS sees the IDE, and XP can run on it, the IDE HD is THERE and working. Yet no Linux can see the IDE HD, XP partition, blank partition, NOTHING. even dmesg shows no IDE The boot text shows no IDE in linux, right after the BIOS lists it correctly while booting.

Ubuntu :: Unable To Recognize The TV

Nov 11, 2010

I have been trying to connect my TV to my ubuntu desktop for a while now.When i start up, the image from the desktop is shown fine on the TV right up until the ubuntu startup image. At that point the image disappears and doesnt return.GRUB and all the startup text is shown fine on the TV but after ubuntu starts, the tv just says "no signal".

Im using a ATI Radeon X800 "Old crap" craphics card. I assume it is because my graphics card does not have the drivers for it installed properly, so i tried that through the package manager along with the catalyst control center. When i tried to open catalyst it gives the message "There was a problem initializing Catalyst Control Center linux edition. It could be caused by the following No ATI graphics driver is installed or the ATI driver is not functioning properly install the ATI driver appropriate for your ATI hardware, or configure using ATI config" When calling aticonfig from the terminal, it says No supported adapters detected.the tv does not appear in displays either. My Medion 17' screen is properly identified in Display though (It does not say unknown or anything)

Ubuntu :: Grub Does Not Recognize Win 7

Nov 16, 2010

I have have just installed 10.10 on my Acer Aspire laptop. I connected to the Internet during installation and therefore should be right up to date. Grub2 does not show Windows 7 as a boot option. Did a bit of searching and ran sudo update-grub2 but no success. I am a newbie as far as Ubuntu is concerned. I installed 9.04 on my netbook and that worked fine. I have the added problem in having to get into Windows very shortly and I haven't a clue how to do it if grub remains broken. Windows partition still there I have not deleted it.

Ubuntu Installation :: PLop Will Not Recognize The Usb ?

Jan 3, 2010

i am currently trying to install xubuntu on an old computer of mine, the problem is that the computer's cd drives are no longer functional but the usb drives are. so i figured i could make a bootable usb and install it that way.I already made the bootable usb and tried to boot the computer using the usb, but it would just load like normal.I continued to search around and found that i could use PLop Boot Manager to force my computer to boot from usb, the problem is that i have installed PLop and yet it will not recognize the usb device.why PLop will not recognize the usb or come up with another way besides PLop for my to install xubuntu.

Ubuntu Installation :: Karmic Does Not Recognize Hdd

Jan 7, 2010

Last night I booted up and got the black screen, and it would not boot. Can't find your /etc/home/fstab file or something along those lines I did not write it down. I got out my thumb drive and reinstalled Ubuntu 9.10, when I got to the partition phase I did a manual install and instructed Ubuntu to load onto /dev/sda1 /. I had previously partitioned this 160Gb drive with 41 Gb for root and 113 for my /home files and left 6.2 for Swap. Now it sees my second partition as 119 /dev/sda2 extended and Unrecognized. Unfortunately all my files are on that partition and I can't figure out how to tell Ubuntu to configure that partition as my /home . I really do not want to re-install and wipe that partition. Can gparted fix this dilemma? I thought I was being so good by creating a boot partition so that I could upgrade in the future without affecting the rest of my files.

When I put the DVD in the drive and go to computer and click open I get a message " unable to mount location, no media in drive." If I have a blank CD+R it says blank CD in drive but with the DVD I am having problems. I have way to many family pictures and I'd like to put it on 2 DVDs instead of 12 CD+Rs.

Ubuntu :: Way To Recognize Nvidia Card

May 12, 2010

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 on an older Compaq Evo D310. When I do a search of my video card I get "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF", which is the integrated card on the motherboard, but I'm actually using an Nvidia GeForce 2 MX 400. At least that's the card my VGA monitor is connected to. How do I get Ubuntu to recognize the Nvidia card? I'd like to try installing an nvidia legacy driver for it to boost performance. Thanks.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Do Not Recognize WEP Key

May 16, 2010

My problem is the computer does recognize the wireless connections but when I put the wep key It just start trying to connect and then asks for it again, and this goes on and on and on. I'm pretty sure I got the key right so I have no idea whats going on. This happened to me to with the previous version of ubuntu and also with fedora and installations in virtual pc, or virtual box. Even normal installations with partition. This time I'm using wubi. I didn't get anything with the grep part, I must have done something wrong.

1) PC Brand and Model:
Easynote MX65 P 057
2) Wireless brand, model and chipset:

Using grep in lspci -nn I got this:
03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection [8086:4222] (rev 02)

Just in case I'll put the whole information:

Ubuntu :: 9.10 Does Not Recognize IPod Touch?

I recently installed Ubuntu after xp went off its last leg and couldn't start up (I deleted all previous files in the installation). It's a very good program and I have no problem installing new programs

The problem is that it will not recognize any iPod connected to it. ( not only mine but family as well)

Now when I say it doesn't recognize, I mean that programs like Banshee, Rhythmbox, and Hipo fail to recognize that an iPod is connected but my iPod can charge perfectly fine so I know that it isn't an issue with the cord.

Ubuntu :: GTK Engines Won't Recognize Their Themes

Sep 7, 2010

I just installed Ubuntu Karmic 9.10 64 bits in my laptop because its kernel version is the only one that will recognize my fan, so upgrading to another version of Ubuntu is not a solution to this problem:So far everything has been working correctly except the capability of some GTK engines to recognize themes: they look like Windows 95 (I'm guessing they take the Raleigh GTK theme because they don't recognize the one I installed).

I've installed, uninstalled and reinstalled several times the Murrine, Equinox, Aurora and Pixbuf GTK engines, without luck. I've installed them from Synaptics (adding the source for some of them) or downloading them from gnome-look, but the problem persists.They both use Equinox, Aurora and Murrine. I'm guessing the problem is with the Murrine engine, because the "New Wave" theme that comes installed by default with Ubuntu doesn't look right either, and it uses that engine.I don't know what else to do, I disabled the Compiz effects but the problem is still there.
