[SOLVED] HP Officejet 6000 e609n and Ubuntu 11.10

location: linuxquestions.com - date: January 25, 2012
I am running Ubunru 11.10 and using the Unity interface on my custom home built w/8gb of memory. Of course the system is 64bit. I have always used Canon printers but needed to go with a Network Printer and choose the HP this time. I installed it as a Network printer but it cannot find it. I installed it as a second printer on the USB with no hitch, works perfectly on the attached unit. On looking at the 2Wire I find the printer address is 192.168.1.75 but I cannot enter that location into the properties in printing. Any help will be appreciated.

[SOLVED] Black screen after booting Ubuntu 11.10 from USB

location: linuxquestions.com - date: April 19, 2012
I'm trying to install ubuntu 11.10 x64 onto my laptop and replace windows. I saved the ubuntu 11.10 DVD iso to my fat32 USB stick and ran the Universal USB installer. I resarted my computer and hit esc then F9 to access the boot menu. From there I was able to boot from my USB. Next, a black menu screen with grey font appeared. It had 5 or 6 different options to select from, including: Run ubuntu from usb; install ubuntu to hard disk; advanced options; and help. The first two options gave me the same issue. Everything appeared to be fine for about 5 seconds but after many strings of code had appeared on the screen, it flashed once and went completely black. However, I was surprised to hear "chimes" or something (seemingly implying some measure of success) only moments after the screen had gone black. Each time I was forced to restart because I had no idea what was going on with the screen black and all. Here are my specs: 2.5GHz AMD Dual-Core A4-3305M Accelerated, 6GB

[SOLVED] Remove Opera Browser on Ubuntu 11.10

location: linuxquestions.com - date: November 8, 2011
Hi, I uninstalled Opera browser from my system (Ubuntu 11.10) via Synaptic and deleted the '.opera' folder on 'Home' directory but it is still showing on applications installed. When I click on it, it launches the browser and recreates the '.opera' folder on 'Home' directory, but there is no such Opera file in any 'usr' sub-directory. Pls how can I completely remove this browser from my system? Thanks.

Possible fix for wireless: BCM4313 (14e4:4727) on hp dm1 laptop with Ubuntu 11.10

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: December 1, 2011
Originally, I posted this on another thread (an Acer user with same chipset) but it turned out that poster's issue with the wireless was entirely different. I know there is a mega-sticky about BCM43xxx drivers but there are so many pages with questions and answers about different Broadcom chipsets that I thought I'd bring this out as a separate thread. One caveat: I am new to Linux (10 days on this laptop, another 2 weeks on an old dell laptop) so please take everything I write with a grain of salt. My set-up: hp dm1 4010us with single-boot 11.10. Wireless did not work after the install so tried the following: 1) Activated the Broadcom STA proprietary drivers through System Info -> Additional Drivers 2) Tried the firmware-b43-installer and bwcutter through the Ubuntu Software Centre 3) Tried the bcmwl-kernel-source through the software center The result I ended with after trying the three methods above: Device: wlan0 Type: 802.11 WiFi Driver: brcmsmac State: disconnected Defa

Hi all, I'm having some serious difficulty getting the nVidia CUDA drivers (from here: http://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads) to play nice with my Ubuntu 11.10 x86_64 installation. The drivers for the card seem to randomly crash, first causing the screen to be covered in little blue and yellow transparent squares for about 5 seconds before just crashing out of X into a terminal. Here is the error message in syslog after droppping out: Code: [ 1738.392321] NVRM: Xid (0000:05:00): 56, CMDre 00000000 0000089c 0100cb1a 00000007 00000000 [ 1738.392767] NVRM: Xid (0000:05:00): 56, CMDre 00000000 00000c9c 0100cb1a 00000007 00000000 [ 1738.416067] NVRM: Xid (0000:05:00): 56, CMDre 00000000 0000089c 0100cb1a 00000007 00000000 [ 1738.416507] NVRM: Xid (0000:05:00): 56, CMDre 00000000 00000c9c 0100cb1a 00000007 00000000 [ 1738.575493] NVRM: Xid (0000:05:00): 56, CMDre 00000000 0000089c 0100cb1a 00000007 00000000 [ 1738.575931] NVRM: Xid (0000:05:00): 56, CMDre 00000000 00000c9c

HP dv66b47dx cannot get Ubuntu 11.10 64 bit to run on it.

location: linuxquestions.com - date: December 18, 2011
I just got this HP laptop the other day and the first thing I tried to do os wipe win 7 from it and install My preformed OS, Ubuntu 11.10 64 bit. However when booting to the boot disk I loose all video. I tried the disk on another system and it works fine so the download was good. I tried downloading the iso again made a new disk anyway and still the same. I have received very little help from the Ubuntu site. One suggestion was to hit F6 and then add nomodeset to the boot options line. this worked to retain a graphical display through boot however it failed to launch the graphical shell. I tried sudo startx and it failed with a message of fatal server error no display screens. I also searched for the laptop compatibility list on Google and my laptop model was not on it. I assume it is because the model is too new. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

[SOLVED] does compiz work in ubuntu 11.10

location: linuxquestions.com - date: February 27, 2012
I'm currently using Ubuntu 11.10 and every time I try to use compiz to spice up my desktop the screen goes black or I lose the task bar for the desktop and nothing works except cont/alt/F2 to pkill compiz. What I am doing is installing compiz, opening the compiz manager, changing the number of desktops to 4 and enabling desktop cube, turning on animations(which none work), and that's about it. I'm sure I missed a lot of steps or Ubuntu 11.10 just doesn't like effects. I so which version of Ubuntu does? Thank you Jonnynitro138
