Ubuntu :: No Connections With A Netbook
Jan 26, 2010
I installed 8.04 on my EeePC 2005. I use the Windows dual boot option. The netbook's hard drive was factory set with two partitions c and d. Windows XP is on c; I put Ubuntu on d. In Windows, I have both wireless and ethernet (sp?) working fine.In Ubuntu, I have no wireless and no land line. The manual connection wizard pop-up shows no networks anywhere. How can I get Ubuntu connected? Would it be simpler to load another distro like Easy Peasy on top of Ubuntu? Or should I delete Ubuntu and start over? Or is there an easy fix for 8.04?

I have a netbook (toy) running Ubuntu 9.04. It has a wired Ethernet NIC and a wireless NIC. They both work fine but I have a question about how to integrate the netbook into my network.
Here is my network design:
Each computer has the reserved IP address devices listed in its host file.
So now comes the netbook, taylor13. For the moment I have hard coded IP addresses on the netbook as follows:
I have added to each host file:
I can now connect to the netbook with the desired interface so I guess all is well. However, this seems a little like a jury rig approach.
Is there a better way? Perhaps a configuration where I could request a connection to "taylor13" and the "system" would figure out what if any paths were available to the device and make the connection?
My router flippeth me the bird if I try to assign the same name to two IP addresses or the same IP address to two device names.
I also realized as I write this that I have a chance of stepping on 192.168.0.113 if I do not reserver it in DHCP.

Lost wired&wireless conections in eeepc 1001px with 10.10 netbook edition, which used to work.
Wireless keeps asking password
Wired is disconnected and doesn't connect
PatchesTheCaveman asked some information, it's attached as a .txt-file, because I don't know how to copy and paste in this Mac I'm using now.

Is it fair to say that connLimit and hashlimit are very similiar on Linux i.e. while hashlimit caters to limits for groups of ports, they both set the connection rate limit per host? How in IPTables, do I configure a policy that limits connections on a port that encapsulates the total sum of all connections from all hosts? i.e. I do not want to allow more than 6000conn/minute for port range that is the sum of all connecting hosts?

I recently installed Fedora 15 now, and during installation I set the internet connection manually, then did update and after reboot, the internet connection settings have been removed. Now I can not set because the network connection to the Internet Connection is inactive. I mention that before the update was functional internet connection.

I am having trouble installing Ubuntu 10.10 netbook remix edition onto a Acer Aspire one netbook. I am attempting to install the OS from a 16GB PNY usb drive w/ the usb-universal installer and ubuntu 10.10 netbook remix .ISO
The reoccurring problem that I am encountering is that when I boot from the USB-drive and begin to install everything seems to be working, and then it is stuck at the menu where it asks who are you?; and of course i have filled in everything asked and at the bottom where you can look at what its doing in the terminal/detail section all it says is ready when you are, and the forward tap is unselectable.

Why i cant change from 800x480 to 1024x600, that this model of EEE pc doesnt support anything higher than 800x480 at the 10:1 ratio...
Firstly my question is, is it ACTUALLY possible to 'overclock' this type of netbook to run a higher res?
Im running ubtuntu netbook remix 10.04 and am new to linux (again, so sorry) so be nice, and ive tried getting my head around this 'sudo' stuff, and the xorg.conf file (which is nowhere to be found) and ive even tried a program calld astray but im pretty sure ive exhausted my patience as trying to self-teach . . .
And ive also tried to much around with xrandr or whatever that command was.. but i cant really get my head around it, and it kept telling me the resolution didnt exist ect...

For the past 2hrs I have been struggling to make KDE launch plasma-dekstop instead of plasma-netbook, but all in vain.I removed, then purged plasma-netbook and plasma-netbook-default-settings packages but after logging out and re-logging in the Netbook UI was back! After restarting the system now I can't even seem to get the KDM. I am greeted with a black screen.--- I restarted the system again and the nasty little bugger is back again! This is so frustrating. How do I get plasma-desktop to load instead?---- Great now I can see that plasma-desktop and plasma-netbook both are running simultaneously! netbook on top of desktop. So my final Q is how do I stop plasma-netbook from loading?

I installed Ubuntu Netbook 10.04 and immediately noticed the keyboard of my eeepc 1000HE was abnormally warm. Since I dual boot XP I booted to XP and found the fan running faster to compensate for the previous heat. This did not happen on Ubuntu-the fan just was barely running. I had to place the side of the netbook in order to feel the fan running. I issued "sensors" in terminal and it showed 67 degrees C for the cpu temp. Is the latest Ubuntu such a resource hug that it heats up the CPU?

Im a new linux user and so far im loving it, problem is i just tried installing Ubuntu 10.04 netbook remix onto my Compaq mini 311 (via usb) and at first i couldnt even install from the flash stick...finally managed to by formatting the flash with an HP tool and then creating the bootable Live OS with "Linux Live USB creator 2.6."
I selected to use the whole Hard disk to install (the hard disk was empty anyway as i recently formated the drive which had windows 7 on it)
The the installation completed successfully but the problem is that after rebooting the OS wouldnt boot, leaving me with a flashing cursor or _ on the top left of the screen...
I have tried everything i could think of, using different Usb creators, formatting the hard drive before re-installing but for some reason im still left with the same blinking cursor after every install.
I have just installed the regular version of ubuntu 9.04 which works perfectly after installing but id much rather use the netbook version of 10.04
(I assume the issue has something to do with the bootloader but im completely new to the topic so cant really troubleshoot)

I've been trying to access the internet on my desktop running 10.4 x64 through my laptop running windows XP. The laptop has a wireless connection and I'm trying to use an ethernet cable to bridge the connections. I've hooked them both up, and under Network Connections in XP I selected my wireless connection and the 1394 connection and right-clicked to bridge, and it does. But ubuntu doesn't want to pick it up.

When I click on the network manager icon next to the date in the upper right corner of my screen, my network connections do not show up. I have added two DSL connections on my laptop (username & password) but it doesn't show up. Everyday I need to use
Code:
sudo pppoeconf
if I wish to connect to the internet.
Both these connections are added in the same way on my Desktop Computer and it shows up on the network manager. One of them is even the default which connects automatically on startup.
Because it's not working I assume network manager is not compatible with my laptop. Are there patches to install or other programs that can easily manage my internet connection?
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 on a not-so-new laptop.

Firestarter sometimes shows up to a dozen different ip connections for a single webpage that I open. This is for the first webpage I open, not after I have been browsing for awhile so they are not old connections that have not timed out. This just doesn't seem normal to me since other installs I have had of ubuntu have only shown one or two firefox connections at all times.

I am noticing really odd behaviour after upgrading from 8.10 to 9.10 (via 9.04). My server frequently becomes unreachable. I am using it as an application server, running Apache, JBoss and MySql. Once the server goes idle, all web connections time out. SSH also times out. Usually the server wakes up on second SSH attempt and then everything: Web, SSH etc seems to run fine.
This is a server machine with no GUI. Can anyone point me to power management or other such settings I can tune from commandline? I have disabled power management by adding kernel parameter acpi=off. I still have the problem. The first network connection after the machine has gone idle takes a long time. All later connections run pretty smoothly.

I have a small business that I run Squid and Dansguardian on Ubuntu for network proxy filtering, among other things. This works great, but does not block SSL connections on Port 443, such as https proxies. I understand that this is because this type of configuration is a "transparent proxy".
Is there a way to set one up "non-transparent" and, would that filter https?
I cannot blanket block 443, because some sites need it.
I have read that one can re-compile Squid to work with SSL, but not being a super guru, not sure of the implications of doing that.

I need some suggestions on software. I would like to offer remote desktop support to some of our clients, but some of them are using ISP's that block incoming connections so, VNC is out of the question. I was wondering if there is something similar to logmein for ubuntu?

I have recently installed lucid 10.04, and I am having difficulty accessing my wireless. Following instructions to install the drivers for my wireless card, I always run into a problem when I need to configure my card. When I go to system-administration-network, there is no connections tab listed. I can only access General, DNS and hosts.

I am trying to use Bittornado with iptables via Firestarter. Previously, I had no problems, but now I have started using Firestarter, traffic is blocked. AIUI, after selecting the .torrent file, the client (me) connects to the tracker. In Firestarter, I see that my IP is trying to connect to various ports, all of which are blocked.I assumed the problem was that because Firestarter has a restrictive outbound traffic policy, that I needed to add Bittornado to it. So in Bittornado, I selected the acceptable ports as 10000-10010 (randomized), and then in Firestarter for the outbound policy I allowed those same ports.The inbound traffic policy has no rules. All traffic is permitted and I have a direct connection to the Internet (no NAT). I do not understand why, if I have selected the permissible outbound ports in Firestarter, and also selected those same ports in Bittornado, why connections between my IP and the tracker are blocked?

I checked all the logs in /var/log but couldn't see anything (I was hoping /var/log/auth.log would have it, just like it has ssh connections in there). I've got a machine that several people VNC into and I would like to keep track of things. Are there other VNC servers out there that keep logs? I could switch, but I went with krfb because it works perfectly for me and came already installed.

I have recently installed MATLAB on my computer, which I have access to licenses from the engineering department license server at my university.This means, that in order to run MATLAB I have to open two SSH connections first:ssh -q -n -x -L 1711:matlab-lmserv.eng.myuni.ac.uk:1711 usrname@gate.eng.myuni.ac.ukssh -q -n -x -L 20001:matlab-lmserv.eng.myuni.ac.uk:20001 usrname@gate.eng.myuni.ac.ukEach of these commands will prompt me for my department password.What I'd like to do is have a script which opens both these connections and then starts MATLAB, without any other input. How would that be done?

So I'm going to try out opendns as an internet filter. But I'm not doing it on a network/router, just on my local machine. Using ubuntu, I read that I need to select each connection and change the dns settings.Is there a way to generically add the dns settings so that if I connect to a new network I don't have to manually update it's settings?

i am too new for linux..I installed Ubuntu 10.10 desktop edition from windows.When i am trying to configure network connections i am facing problems
Code:
udo pppoeconf
no working ethernet card could be found.If you do have an interface card which was not autodetected so far,you probably wish to load the driver manually using the modconf utility.Run modconf now?
/usr/sbin/pppoeconf: 523: modconf: not found Ifconfig
