First: I have just recently upgraded to 10.04 and I just noticed that my network icon in the top right tool bar disappeared. The one that monitors your wireless signal for laptops. How do I make that appear again?
Second question: How do I change the time selection at the beginning when I first turn on my laptop to choose between Windows or Ubuntu? Better yet, is it possible to make it infinite?
i install ubuntu though wubi and it worked kind of. It asked me to restart at the end so i did and when it was startaing up it didnt show the option to boot into ubuntu.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have set the kernel selection time out to 3 seconds. However, sometimes it just hangs indefinitely on the kernel selection screen until I manually select the kernel. This is bad news since it is a VM started up from a script and _has_ to start automatically. The VM is a re-constructed cloud backup made by rsync and re-running grub.
Is there any way to force Ubuntu to NEVER, under any circumstances, not time out on kernel selection.
How can I change the behavior of the selection buffer or a program that uses it ( I have xclip) to not send me text until the mouse button is released while clicking and dragging? This causes havok in the software I'm developing that tries to make use of the selection buffer. I need the full selection, not bits more bits more bits and then the full selection.EDIT: I cannot listen for mouse events such as button release outside of the GUI of my program.

3 computers in the house run various windows based programs and everything is fine with them connecting to the internet as far as putting in the security password to log in and get online.My old back up computer that I use in the basement that has Ubuntu 9.10 was working fine with the secured network situation up until today.I booted up the computer this morning and it automatically connected as it typically does and I was reading some email and then the computer froze, which on rare occasions it does.
Upon reboot I got a window that asked for the password for the Network Manager Applet which I supplied and then it asked for the password for the secured internet connection which I supplied.It would not connect. After numerous tries of disabling the wireless and enabling the wireless and entering the Network Manager Applet password and the secured internet password I still get no connection.
I notice that when it is trying to connect, the window comes up on the screen that shows that there is reception from the modem, but there is also a little "lock" icon like I'm locked out of the connection.I finally found a way to get rid of the Network Manager Applet password problem but that still didn't alleviate the connection problem.
Title says it. I tend to be a pretty zealous tweaker, but I'm not sure what caused this to happen.

I am having the problem enabling Bluetooth on my Dell studio 1555.
When I start System->Preference-Bluetooth Manager, I get message Connection to Bluez failed :

I have reinstalled, removed rebooted and installed bluez, bluez-utils, Blueman, bluetooth number of times now. Two attachments are included,
BlueZ output screen
Bluetooth output screen
Bluetooth works perfect, when I boot lucid using live CD, So I guess there is some problem with the installation. I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.4. It never worked with 9.10 and its continuing the same way.
After a restart, I see bluetooth icon, but its grey all the time. Two more screen shots..

I've got fedora 11 set up to use network time protocol to sync my laptop's date & time when I'm on-line. The question is simple really, I've added a local universality's time server (what is public) and it's live. but it's added to the end of the default time servers what come with fedora. How do I get fedora to just use the local time server, is it a case of removing the default time servers for fedora, but there is a box what says advanced options which are. sync system clock before starting service ???? & use Local time source (( is that the same as the local ntp server that I've got set up ))Hope some body can help me with the network time protocol part of Date/Time settings.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn the LiveCD there is an Icon. You can see it left of this pic.
This Icon is missing in a FULL INSTALL of openSuSE, how can I make it shown up.
I have KDE Desktop.
I am relatively new at Linux and am having some problems with an install of openSUSE 11.2. I installed 11.2 on my Thinkpad X31 dual boot with WinXP. It seems to work very well except the network. I looked up swerdna's instructions on setting network cards up. I used YaST to try and set the system up as described in swerdna's instructions. Everything looks fine my network card and wireless card show up in the overview settings screen and everything sets up fine. But when I exit YaST the network doest show up no icon in the system tray and it doesn't even try to connect.
I did go into hardware to see if it was identifying my hardware and my network card shows up as "Thinkpad R40" and the wireless shows up as Cisco Aironet Wireless 802.11b. As far as I know this is correct. I have tried three other distro's and this one has gotten the closest to working so far.
I just installed openSUSE 10.3. Unfortunately after updates and reboot the system and disappeared from the taskbar network icon. Does anyone know how can I restore?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI wanted to install ubuntu via wubi, but i had to format my partitions (can't do it on wubi ) so i used a crappy program(i don't remember the name) to get rid of Backtrack4 , because i wanted windows kept for my mom.So, that was the sorry, i've ended up with a GRUB error 22, and a Backtrack4 CD stuck in my DVD-rom.So my question is: Can somewone tell me how to fix error 22? (i've seen some methods online, but i obviously can't put a Windows CD in my DVD rom because the Backtrack4 DVD is stuck in there.

(it is plugged in, the net from ubuntu works fine.) Heres the output from lspci, dunno if helps:
