View 7 RepliesI would like to purchase more memory for one of my computers. Is there a utility that will tell me what type of memory is installed in the machine?

Do you really want to continue (y/n)?
I don't want to cause damage, but I'd rather not go into BIOS.
I bought a 2nd hand DDR 1GB memory chipset a few days ago and inserted it in to spare slot on motherboard. However unsure if memory is working properly because bios does not recognise it and neither does Linux but system does appear to run a lot smoother with programs loading faster. If there is a test I can perform to check if memory is working fine or simply return back to shop I bought it? Computer is a DELL Optiplex 170L mini tower system.

I have decided to load the OS on a old HP Compaq DX2000 MT to see if its for me before putting it on my main machine.
I loaded Ubuntu version 10.10 last night everything was fine except I could not get my wireless adapter to work, I decided to connect via ethernet to get the latest updates and drivers.
After the updates and restart I now get the non executable memory error. when I enter
/usr/bin/check-bios-nx --verbose
I am told I have NX capabilities and should go to the bios and enable it. There is nothing in
the bios to enable as far as I can see. So I enter the command
sudo rm /etc/update-motd.d/20-cpu-checker
I wanted to check what version of GRUB I have installed. I went to terminal and typed grub --versionI got this message back: The program 'grub' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install grub

My mainboard is a MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum. I have 4GB of OCZ memory installed. 2GB just recently installed. In the bios, I've enabled the memory hole remapping for both HW/SW. It is not a shared memory with the onboard video. I have the onboard video disabled. I have a dedicated Nvidia card. The Bios does show a full 4GB in the system information section.
I thought that 10.04, was supposed to have the pae kernel enabled by default. Is that not the case?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install libusb. I've downloaded a file from [URL]. I've unzipped the file; the folder's on my desktop. I've tried to install this, but I'm not sure how. Under installation it says: See the file 'INSTALL'. There are a few files that start with this term: INSTALL.libusb, INSTALL.libusb.in and install-sh. The first two appear to be the same, while the latter appears to be some sort of program.
When I double click it, I get a few options, including "run". I assumed this was the correct way to install the program, but when I hit run, nothing happens. I've displayed this file, but this gives me no additional information. I've tried running it in terminal: nothing. Maybe it has installed, and I just don't know it. How would I even check if it's installed? (I'm only installing libusb because I need it for something else).
Ok so I am doing a fresh install of 5.3 .... At the begning of the install after i get into it a get a screen that says "What type of media contais the packages to be installed?" with options... Local CDROM, HD, NFS Imahes, FTP, HTTP.I have a LG GH22NP20 that installed 5.2 fine on the system..... And can load the cd....?>

I've just installed ubuntu 9.04 (had the disc from before) and I'm upgrading to 9.10 of course but I have a question. How do I check that I have the latest drivers installed for everything in my laptop? I'm the kind of person that has that nagging feeling in the back of my head telling me that everything isn't installed perfectly and I need to install my drivers properly (or at least ask).

I know with if statements in bash you can do
Code:
if [ $fruit = apple ]
then echo "Good, I like Apples"
fi
But I was wondering if you could do something like this:
Code:
if [apt-cache pkgnames smbfs = smbfs doesn't exist]
the apt-get install smbfs
fi
If so how would you capture the output from apt-cache pkgname smbfs to determine if it's installed?
After sifting through numerous apt-get apt-cache apt-file tutorials I still can't find a command to check if a package is installed via the terminal command/line.
I know there must be some way to do it.
Say I want to check if any package from the libavcodec*.deb family is installed how could I do this without a gui eg synaptic?
