Ubuntu :: WLAN Light Blinks And Other Terminal

Mar 8, 2011

I am very new to Ubuntu and I need some help. My HP Pavillion WLAN light constantly blinks as it recieves data on the internet and I learned that I have to create and save a file: "sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/wlan.conf" and then paste the following at the end: "#1 means do not blink options iwlcore led_mode=1" but when I try to save it asks me for my sudo password which I don't have and it does not even register any key I press. It just blinks but does not acccept any key. Also how do you save the file in terminal?

OpenSUSE Network :: No Wlan With FRITZ WLAN USB Stick N 2.4 On 11.2

Nov 27, 2009

There is no wlan0 interface when trying to run FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick N 2.4 on OpenSuSE 11.2, though it works fine on Fedora 11 and Mandriva Spring 2009.1. All 64bit. Contrary to Fedora and Mandriva, there is no need to compile the compat-wireless module ar9170usb for OpenSuSE 11.2 because the kernel is very recent and includes this driver. Kernel: 2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop The /var/log/messages gives this after I put the stick in the PC. At first it is seen as a mass storage device:

Nov 27 22:00:24 linux-3mwa kernel: [ 73.420755] usb 1-5.1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4

Ubuntu :: GDM Won't Log In Any-more / Just Blinks

Feb 18, 2010

I can't seem to log in with GDM. It shows the username, I click it, type the correct password, at which point it starts logging me in, then screen blinks a couple of times briefly showing the loadng cursor, and I am back at the login prompt, just like that.I don't have a lot of experience with Gnome, and don't even know where to start troubleshooting. It seems GDM doesn't like something when logging me in, aborting on some failure or something like that.Are there any good things I can try?Am on Ubuntu Karmic Koala 9.10, 32-bit x86, on Thinkpad T43. All worked very well up to this point. I don't recall installing all that much lately.I can log in just fine into the one of the text mode terminals. 'root' can login to desktop, but not me.

Ubuntu :: Log In Screen - Blinks Off To The Purple - Freezes

Oct 7, 2010

I downloaded the latest LTS last evening , placed it along side my Win 7 , things went well seemingly until I got the install done and restarted the pc. From the initial purple log in area, the second I curse to the place to put my pw the screen blinks off to the purple screen, devoid of the login section and freezes, taking my mouse control away and then it just sticks. I have restarted quite a few times with the same issue. Is there a known issue about Win7 and the latest LTS concerning the log in screen?
if so, what would I need to do to correct, do I need to jump backwards to an earlier version and wait for the issues to be corrected? Is that even possible?

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Wi-Fi Blinks On And Off

Sep 5, 2010

My problem seems to be intermittent. I can connect to the net fine but after a while web pages stop loading. This coincides with a light on my laptop which indicates whether the wireless is turned on or not flashing, the actual connection manager doesn't indicate lost signal or anything else. It works fine on my other OS so I don't think the hardware�s broke.My card is a intel r wifi 5100 agn.wireless lan is present and my kernal driver is iwlagn.

Ubuntu Installation :: Screen Blinks On And Off / When Boot Into Live CD

Jul 23, 2010

When I attempt to boot my computer using the ubuntu 10.04 64 bit live cd the screen lights up briefly about every 2 seconds before blinking off again.The ubuntu booting process is shown just long enough for me to see that it appears to be working besides this display issue. I also had this issue attempting to install kubuntu 10.04.My system currently runs opensuse 11.2, but before that it had mint linux 8 and an older version of ubuntu which both worked fine.Has anyone else experienced this?Any ideas or is ubuntu on my computer a lost cause?

Ubuntu Networking :: Wifi LED Behaviour Incorrect - Blinks Between Orange And Blue

May 13, 2010

I'm having a bit of trouble with my wifi. Every time the network has activity, it blinks between orange and blue. The normal behaviour of the LED is to be blue when wifi is enabled and orange when disabled. Often it blinks rapidly between the two, sometimes appearing white the change is so rapid. You can see how this would be annoying (as well as raise some concern over the life of the LED's)...

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit. My computer is an HP Pavillion dv7 1135nr. Wifi hardware specs: Realtek RTL8101, Atheros AR5007.

Fedora Installation :: Preupgrade Reboot Just Sits & Blinks

Aug 5, 2011

When preupgrade reboots, what's supposed to happen, and in what amount of time? I've tried it twice, trying to upgrade my desktop from F14 to F15 (Gnome). Both times, the download took about 40 minutes, but the reboot just sat there, with the cursor blinking in the upper left corner - no GRUB, nothing. When I then restart with Ctrl+Alt+Del, I can use the BIOS boot menu to pick the disk with F14, and it starts normally with no clue that anything has changed. Is something wrong here that I can fix?

Jul 30, 2010

I am having trouble with the grub boot menu. I have a dual boot system, Windows XP 32 bit and Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit. Windows was preexisting when I installed Ubuntu. The install went fine but when I restarted, the Grub menu gives the option of the Windows boot loader but when I tab to that and press enter the screen goes black and the curser just blinks in the upper left corner...no XP boot. The XP drive is there as I can mount it from Ubuntu side but when I try to boot into it it does not seem to be there. What have I done and what can be done so that I can boot into the XP side?

Fedora Networking :: Screen Goes Black / Mouse Freezes / Caps-lock Blinks

Dec 14, 2009

I keep starting up the computer and I'm not able to get far (although it's not always at the same time) before my screen will go black, except it shows the mouse/cursor - but it's frozen, and then the caps-lock light starts blinking and I can't do anything or get it to recover. It ONLY occurs after I log in to wireless network. Using a wired connection, this problem never occurs.How do I stop this and diagnose this?I've tried, in the boot-startup to choose an older kernel version, but the same thing occurs! And this was working for months and now is not.

OpenSUSE Install :: Normal User Cannot Login - Screen Blinks - A Black Page Appears

Jun 27, 2010

I can't log into my normal user account anymore, though I can log in with root without any problem. When I enter my normal user name and password, the screen blinks, a black page appears and after a couple of seconds I get the login screen again. I deleted /tmp files but no changes. I tried to login using command mode. So I hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 and log into root in command mode, then ran init3, then switched user to my normal user and ran startx. It worked and I logged into my normal account, but I can not do this process every time. So, what is the problem? How can I solve this problem? I used to work with my normal user flawlessly. I installed a bunch of software and also copied some folders to my home directory, but I don't know whether these activities caused the problem or not. I'm using KDE4 under openSUSE 11.2.

Ubuntu :: Getting A Light OS For Old Laptop?

Apr 12, 2010

I have the question if anyone here has a suggestion for a Linux-based operating system I can use to run on an old laptop, connected to an external monitor with a keyboard and a mouse (so that it kinda looks like a pc, i'm saving money okay ). The specs for the laptop are:
Acer Aspire, 512 mib RAM, 16 mib Graphical Card, AMD Sempron processor, 30 GIG storage. I have Ubuntu 9.04 running on it, but I find it a bit too slow, it takes at least 20 seconds before google chrome (which is faster than firefox, and firefox takes at least 40 seconds to start up) will start up, as well as openoffice.I just need to do the following things on this laptop:

- browse the webs
- make text documents
- be able to view flash
- be able to play video's and mp3

Ubuntu :: Getting Very Light Colored Text

Jan 5, 2010

I have an annoying text color problem. I don't know what to change to fix it. I have played around with System->Preferences->Appearance to no avail. Here is the problem: I am getting very light colored text so only the currently selected item is readable. The funny thing is that in Nautilus, Firefox, Chrome, Amarok, etc.. it's fine. It seems to be in only some programs in boxes with selectable line items, but also in the area that displays status updates in FileZilla. So I'm not sure how to pinpoint the problem.

Ubuntu :: Temporary Hangs With HDD Light On?

May 4, 2011

I've been using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS for almost a year now in WUBI with WinXP. I'm a relative noob with Linux, though always eager to learn more. Lately, I have noticed that every now and then Ubuntu stops working for about 30 seconds or so with the hard disk light solidly on. Clicking anywhere does nothing until it wakes up and then remembers all my previous clicks.

When it doesn't do this, it works wonderfully. I can't figure out what sets it off. And some days it does it annoyingly often and other days not at all or rarely. I checked the log files and this is a sample of some troubled times:

Code:
May 2 19:32:17 ubuntu kernel: [ 909.000011] ata1: lost interrupt (Status 0x58)
May 2 19:32:17 ubuntu kernel: [ 909.000064] ata1: soft resetting link
May 2 19:32:17 ubuntu kernel: [ 909.196337] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133
May 2 19:32:17 ubuntu kernel: [ 909.196342] ata1.00: device reported invalid CHS sector 0
May 2 19:32:17 ubuntu kernel: [ 909.196348] ata1: EH complete

Ubuntu :: Controlling Bluetooth Control Light

Dec 17, 2010

I've just bought a MSI Wind U250 netbook and installed Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. (Almost everything is working great out of the box. There are some little problems like dead keyboard shortcut Fn + F3 which sould be killing touchpad. BTW any package or other way to configure Fn keys?)This model of netbook has a bluetooth as an option. My netbook hasn't BT, but has bluetooth control light anyway, which isn't used at all. Such a waste, I've paid for this control light after all...

I'm using GNUbiff as an e-mail notifier. It can run a command when a new e-mail comes. Now I'm using this to play a sound: play /usr/share/sounds/purple/receive.wav. But I would like to send this way a signal to the BT control light to light or, even better, start blinking in specified manner. (Scroll Lock control light would be also great)Is there such possibility? Maybe you are aware of existence of a package able to do this, because I'm unable to locate such one.I think this is really obvious adaptation for control light and don't think I'm the first one who want such function. Some laptops even has a special control light just for e-mail (like my 12 years old fujitus-siemens) and there is Polish IM "EKG" (or "EKG2", don't remember) who blinks ScrLk when a new message comes, so I figured out there should be a potentiality to manage control lights.

Ubuntu Networking :: Run A Light Weight Distro On It Instead?

Apr 13, 2011

After a respective amount of Google-ing, I did not manage to come up with an answer to this. This has been a problem for several people because Ubuntu or any other distribution that I know of does not support the Linksys AE1000 card. It's kinda a pain because my desktop needs wireless in order to connect to the internet (for several reasons...) Is anybody working on the drivers for this? I would prefer not to be stuck with Windows. I would love to run a light weight distro on it instead.
