OpenSUSE Hardware :: Can't See Icons After Installing 11.1 On Gatweay Solo 1450
Mar 28, 2011I've used Ubuntu, but haven't done anything fancy with it. I installed OpenSUSE 11.1 on an old Gateway Solo 1450. It works great in Failsafe mode. When I try a normal boot, I get my background with a beautiful resolution, one or two of the icons in the lower right corner appear and that's it. Nothing else shows up on the screen!
These are my machine's specs:
1.2 Ghz. Celeron CPU
128 Kb. cache
256 MB RAM PC-133 (why I went with an older version of OpenSUSE)
10 Gb. Hard Disk
Intel 830-MG chipset
Phoenix Bios
Intel 4X AGP Graphics core
Debian Installation :: Gateway Solo 5300 Freezes At Install?
Apr 12, 2010how something doesn't work. Just so I feel better (and hopefully you too), I <3 you Debian. You've worked wonderfully on many projects and experiments before. Here we go.
Gateway Solo 5300
Intel Mobile Pentium IIIe 900MHz
256MB PC100 SDRAM
Random 10GB 2.5" IDE drive (currently contains WinXP Pro)
For the very short time I could boot off the Debian 5.04 i386 CD, I'd choose the default settings to boot to the installer only to have it freeze about 3-4 seconds in. I tried a few of the compatibility options, but I can't remember which. I set up a quick and dirty PXE server using tftp32 on a Windows machine and used it to successfully boot to the Debian installer from PXE only to have it freeze in the same spot. I'm now running the installer using whatever was included on the Debian CD to modify Windows XP's boot.ini to load grub and (inherently the installer) and it is again freezing in the same spot. Ubuntu does roughly the same thing, but only gives me a blank screen.
I'm fairly skilled with Windows (been using since Win 3.1 and 6-8 years old) in the command line and graphical environment and I know enough Linux to make me accidentally type "ls" instead of "dir" when I'm in Windows' command prompt and enough to get around in terminal (apt-get, more/less, grep, pipes, make, etc). I'm sure Debian will make better use of my rather limited 900MHz proc. I'll do my best to understand the technical jargon.
The installer only manages to get to about here: (I get to type this out manually. Ignoring timestamps. Bear with me.)
Freeing initrd memory: 11977k freed
Simple Boot Flag at 0x36 set to 0x1
audit: initializing netlink socket (disabled)
type=2000 audit(1271025644.848:1): initialized
[Code]....
Googling the last few lines suggests the problem is with USB. There is no option to disable the onboard USB controller and additionally, there is no option to boot from USB. Thinking the problem might be IRQ conflicts, I've disabled the Serial and Parallel port from the BIOS in a desperate attempt to free up IRQs slightly. The CD-ROM drive can be removed and swapped with a floppy drive or extra battery. I've removed as many devices as I can, the full list of which is just the CD-ROM and PCMCIA wireless card.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Can't Get Sound From M-Audio Firewire Solo (using FFADO And JACK)?
Jul 20, 2010I'm a complete Linux newbie - only installed it yesterday, and have spent hours trying to get my M-Audio Firewire Solo sound card to work. I can hear nothing at all. I know nothing of Linux, but am willing to learn. While I learn though, it would be nice to listen to a little Hall & Oates. I've got to the stage where the error messages I'm receiving don't bring up any results on Google. Here's what things look like (watch out, big pic):
Those sample rate errors appear in the terminal when I start ffado-mixer. I'm running JACK with everything set as I think it's supposed to be, except that 'Realtime' is unchecked.If I start JACK running with 'Realtime' checked, it tries to launch and fails, saying "JACK is running in realtime mode, but you are not allowed to use realtime scheduling. After applying these changes, please re-login in order for them to take effect". I don't know what more it wants me to do - i've already added
@audio � rtprio 100
@audio - nice -10
@audio � memlock unlimited
to /etc/security/limits.conf, and selected the 2.6.31-11-rt kernel on GRUB bootup. I'm a member of 'audio' and 'disk' groups like'm supposed to be. Have I not got the connections right in JACK? Have I got some sample rate settings wrong somewhere?I'm not even bothered about low latency with the realtime kernel right now, I just want to hear some sound

Dec 30, 2010I use my Ubuntu LiveUSB (LiLi USB Creator) on various machines and everything works perfectly.
Though, even though I got the NVidia driver to work properly on my laptop, the "Desktop Effects" keeps getting turned off it seems.
For Compiz to work, I have to go to System - Preferences - Appearance and tell it Extra affects and Compiz will turn back on, though losing all settings.
Is there a reason Compiz and Desktop Effects are not getting persistence when every other part of the system has it?
Ubuntu :: When Booting From LiveUSB?
Jun 6, 2011I just downloaded a new copy of Ubuntu 11.04 and burnt it to a disc and made a LiveUSB. But whenever I try booting from the USB it starts loading, then goes into a black screen with a bunch of text. My computer booted from a live USB before and it worked.I have an Aspire 5552 if the helps and the USB I am using is a 4GB SanDisk Cruzer.
View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Write LiveUSB Changes To USB
Feb 6, 2010I'm wondering if it's possible to write changes to a LiveUSB stick. As you probably already know ubuntu gets mounted to a ramdisk to improve performance and save your USB stick's life (I think so anyway, don't quote me on that).
I'm wondering if it's possible to write any changes made, such as changing running services and installed packages back to the USB stick without actually installing ubuntu fully onto the USB stick.
Ubuntu Installation :: 11.04 - No Boot Up From LiveUSB
Apr 29, 2011Switched off ubuntu when I installed windows 7 for a bit, didn't have time to learn the intricacies of both systems. Saw the new release and wanted to try it out. Followed the ubuntu instructions on how to install it and make a live usb. Using a 4 GB Sandisk Cruzer straight out of the box. When I boot to the usb, I get to screen that asks whether I want to run ubuntu from the USB, or to install it on my computer. Selecting the run from USB option shows a bunch of commands cycling through for a bit, then the screen goes black and just stays that way. Not really sure what the problem is. Trying to run the 64 bit version fyi.
View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: As A LiveUSB Or VM On A USB Stick ?
Sep 1, 2011I dont really use ubuntu too much, just for my programming class. Anyways I want to have ubuntu on a USB stick so I can use it on my laptop, netbook, desktop PC at home and desktop PC in class, all of which run Windows natively.
I would prefer the Virtual Machine (VM) on a USB stick but im not sure if its possible to install virtualbox (my VM of choice) on a USB drive. if not then a liveUSB, though correct me if im wrong but would i be able to save files on a liveusb?
If I do go with the VM on the usb stick option, i need an idea what size USB stick to buy so what is the bare minimum space you can run ubuntu on? I also intend to run OpenSUSE which is why i prefer the portable vm option.

Did I do something wrong or is this a bug?
I installed with unetbootin on the FAT32 partition and created the partitions using GParted.

Nothing seems applicable.PS, I did already create the real user and it's working fine. I just have to log out before I can log in as the right user.

Nov 8, 2010I downloaded Ubuntu desktop 10.10 on to my Acer 5741 laptop (which I checked online for comptability), following the site's instructions to the letter. I used the USB installer to create a live USB which seemed to go fine. I then restarted as instructed and changed the USB to be selected to boot. However, from that point, the OS fails to load. I get several pages of code loading, then a screen with a logo at the bottom, then my screen just goes dark.
I've been using Windows 7 to download etc.

It hangs there without going any further. I'm currently downloading a different version of Fedora 14, so maybe it's just a bad install. Or maybe this is something that I should have encountered before. Any ideas on how to get it booted up?

Jan 7, 2010I created a LiveUSB and that worked. On about the 3rd use I attempted to update packages - about 174 came up I think (I saw that number on another post which reminded me, hence the precision). Two or three dialogues came up, unfortunately unintelligible to me, a Ubuntu novice. Both concerned grub2. The first I just forwarded on and the update trundled on. The 2nd asked me something like whether I wanted grub to update sda or sdb. I checked neither (against the pop-up help advice). The update completed but when I eventually went to reboot from the USB I got a repeating fatal message: something like "Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.31-17-generic/.dep". I had to switch off. It did reboot successfully from a LiveCD.

Ubuntu :: Karmic LiveUSB Created With Unetbootin Won't Shutdown?
Apr 24, 2010I've been using a LiveUSB I created using unetbootin from Windows Vista/7.
Whenever I use it to install Ubuntu (done it a few times now) or as a LiveUSB to try and rescue my installation, it never shuts down or reboots. It just starts the cycle then hangs on the white Ubuntu logo. As it never gets past this, I'm forced to hard power off, and I'm concerned this could be damaging my mounted system drives? I've decided I should be unmounting before I try and shut it down now, is there a proper way to do this, and can I fix the LiveUSB itself?
