Asus gaming laptop headphones will not work

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: February 6, 2010
Hi! I'm relatively new to Ubuntu and installed it yesterday. I can hear sound out of my built in speakers on my laptop, but when I plug in my headphones I don't hear anything. Occasionally when I go do something that requires a sound I hear a faint white noise in my headphones. I tried going to alsa mixer and muting and unmuting everything, but that didn't work, though when I got to the headphones I muted and unmuted each side, and each side gave me a faint white noise for a second when I did it. The headphones work fine when I'm running Windows 7. I'm using a Realtek ALC663 Nvidia ID5 Thanks so much for your help!! Bobertkins

LXer: Ubuntu 11.10 Will Not Ship With A Classic Gnome Desktop

location: linuxquestions.com - date: April 3, 2011
Published at LXer: As you probably know (if you don't, read the Ubuntu 11.04 beta 1 post again), Ubuntu 11.04 will ship with an option to use the classic Gnome Desktop so Unity is not a must if you don't want to use it. All you have to do to use the Gnome panels is to select the Ubuntu Classic Desktop in the login screen.Well, according to Mark Shuttleworth (see his comment here), there won't be such an option in Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot: Read More...

Internet will not connect, and says no devices found?

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: May 14, 2009
For the last few days I've been trying to get ubuntu 8.10 to work with my internet. I have a Motorola SB5120 Modem with Comcast. I went threw all the sites and did everything to try to make it work but nothing. Everytime I type in terminal : ifconfig all, it says "error fetching interface information : device not found" but when I had windows it was there and worked great. I have all the right info and it says connected to eth0 but a site will never come up to anything but problem loading page, and auto search(auto eth0 or ifupdown(eth0)) always trys then says network disconnected. Everything else works good about the Ubuntu system except that. Is there something i'm doing wrong? Does anyone think they can solve this problem? If so, I would gladly appreciate it

PHP5 will not display errors to the browser in Ubuntu

location: linuxquestions.com - date: February 15, 2011
I'm at my wits end. I have a personal apache server with php5 module in it that I have set to host user directories Host/~username. When I introduce any errors to the php file, such as echo "Syntax error; , I get a blank white screen. The error exists in the apache log file in /var/log. I have found the php.ini file in and found every occurance of "error" in it and set it to "On" or E_ALL depending on what the argument wants. I still get a white screen. What the hell is going on? Thanks.

Intel D845 will not install

Intel desktop board D845 GEBV2/D845 PESV, presumably Intel on-board graphics, Celeron 2 GHz, upgraded to 1 GB RAM Computer ran a long time without problems under W2k,the only change was a new DVD burner, which I have now taken out again. I would like to install Ubuntu. The computer is absoutely determined not to install ubuntu, I have now tried everything I know for two days. Firsst CD, installed 10.10 without problems on another computer last week, endless problems, eventually I was able to run "check CD" and there were 3 file errors. Burn a second CD. No file errors. The installation often stops for no apparent reason (typically blinking dash top left, no CD or disc noises or lights for a long time). I have also tried the "try out" option, which sometimes got as far as a request to log on, although I had not configured any user. I found some suggestions what to try in the forums, but have not got so far again since. I have tried switches ac

ubuntu 12.04 will not boot properly

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: February 24, 2013
Hi, I am new to ubuntu as I recently started gaining interest in the OS. I recently decided to install Ubuntu server 12.04 on my lenovo ideacentre which had windows 8 pre-installed in it. I decided to chose to install Ubuntu server 12.04 form a USB drive and continued with the installation perfectly. It successfully rebooted once after the the "FInish installation" screen from the (U. 12.04) installation process but was not able to connect to the internet , when i pinged www.google.com it gave me an unreachable host error. Then,I decided to restart the machine using Code: "sudo reboot" Then, I was surprised that the machine gave me this message: Code: Error 1962: no operating system found. Press any key to repeat boot sequence. Could anyone please guide me to fix this issue.? I tried reinstalling it but in vain. Thank you for your time
