Wireless Networking: Available, but not on Zorin OS Linux
location: ubuntuforums.com - date: February 22, 2013
I've posted about this here before, but I could not get results that solved it. I have more details.
On my cousin's computer Windows 7, Wireless was working GREAT. I booted Zorin from the CD, same result. GREAT. So I entered my WiFi Password, it tried connecting, connected. I rebooted the system (I needed to shut it down.) I did not install Zorin, Windows is still default and only OS on the computer. I booted Zorin again after five minutes. From the live CD and tried connecting the WiFi. Entered the password "Connecting, Connecting. Disconnected. Wireless is disabled by hardware switch." So it's definitely OS related. It also broke my WiFi keyboard button. The f5 light for WiFi was stuck only when I tried Linux on it.
Getting back to my issue, my "WiFi is disabled by hardware switch." It worked a while back when I had Windows 7 and Ubuntu but now after Zorin installed, it's just disabled. How can I fix this?

I am new to the forums, but not new to linux.

I am new here on the forums. I had used slackware as my original OS of choice since 2006 until 2009 and then switched to Debian based distros for a while, then went to fedora, Then now im back to slackware. I love slackware more than any other distro. It was the first one i used and is still the best. Thing is, i never learned anything about slackware because my computer was a piece of junk. Then i got a windows 7 computer, and had nothing but problems with windows 7, and i formatted windows off and installed Ubuntu 10.04 in its place. Then i tried debian and my hard drive crashed. After fixing that issue, i ran linux mint. Then eventually i reinstalled windows for a while until i got a desktop that runs windows 7. after giving that laptop to my dad i bought a windows 8 laptop. and then i took windows 8 off and started trying out every linux distro under the sun. and also, tried BSD. Under BSD my wireless wasnt supported.Tried UNIX and it worked like a charm. I learned a lot by using
Google App Engine development server slow in Windows but not in Ubuntu Linux
location: linuxexchange.com - date: July 14, 2011
In Ubuntu, I run the command ./dev_appserver.py to start the development server. Everything runs snappy under Linux.
I also have Windows 7 installed on the same machine. In Windows, I start the development server from the Google App Engine Launcher (version 1.5.1). The server appears to start up OK, but once it is running, pages may take minutes before they begin to load, if at all. The page tends either to load completely or not at all. If the page does start loading, it's usually fairly quick. It's not the loading of images and scripts that is slow, but it seems like the request itself is getting hung up or lost somewhere.
The page that seems to time out most often is the pretend "Login with Google" page. Also, during hang ups, occasionally I will get the following log message (but I'm not sure that its related). Most times, I won't get any message at all.

HTML5 radio stream works in Android but not Windows or Linux (Aural Moon)
location: linuxexchange.com - date: January 19, 2014
URL Reference: http://m.gooplusplus.com/?radio
Audio URL (public): http://live.str3am.com:2010/#.mp3
HTML5 Player Source Code: http://www.terrillthompson.com/music/aap/
The public Aural Moon MP3 radio stream is easily played on my referenced Radio Jukebox site when using Android tablets or smartphones or when using Windows or Linux media programs like VLC.
The station does not play in any Linux or Windows browser from the reference web site.
Spoofing the navigator.userAgent string to pretend to be an Android browser had no effect.
Radio Station is (P1). Any suggested fix?
UPDATE Relevant excerpt of Terrill Thompson's source code:
this.audio.addEventListener('error', function() {
var errorCode, networkState, errorMsg;
document.title = 'Error';
errorCode = $this.audio.error.code;
networkState = $this.audio.networkState;
if (errorCode == 1) {
errorMsg = 'Waiting'; //actually, aborted I think
} else if (errorCode == 2) {
My external monitor flickers when using with Vista, but not with XP/Linux
location: linuxexchange.com - date: April 11, 2013
I bought a new Dell Monitor ST 2410 model (24 inch). It works great when I connect my XP laptop to it or my Linux box. But when I connect it to my HP Laptop (Dv 6000 series) which has Vista on it. The monitor flickers a lot.
Tried out all modes/frequencies but didn't help me. Any ideas?

Unicode working on Windows but not Red Hat Linux : Java
location: linuxexchange.com - date: November 6, 2015
In Java, I am generating file having Unicode characters.
When I run my program in Windows (Jboss) and open the file (CSV). It finely displays Unicode characters (Norwegin and Icelandic) in excel.
But when I deploy the same in server inside Red Hat Linux (in Jboss same version), run the program, generate file and download and when I see that in excel then it is distorting all Unicode characters.
Could you please suggest any local Linux setting due to which Unicode is distorting? or where change is required?

I have checked System Encoding: using System.getProperty("file.encoding") and found that
Windows is Cp1252 and Linux is UTF-8
Update 2
When I print in Linux using :

Scientific Linux 6: Wireless but not wired connection detection?
location: linuxquestions.com - date: January 9, 2012
I recently installed SL6, replacing my older Ubuntu installation that had freezing issues, and noticed that I was unable to detect ethernet connections anymore. I still have full access to wireless connections, however these did vanish a few days ago and I was unable to connect to any networks until I reinstalled from the .iso file. I was switching from a 64bit to 32bit client anyways so this didn't bother me much, however I am wondering why I am still unable to detect an ethernet connection. I've checked the boards here and have found similar problems, but none exactly the same as mine and none of the workaround seems to fit my scenario.
To show where I'm at in the trouble shooting process, networkmanager is enabled in the System settings, and when I type ifconfig -a I do see 2 nic's, here is what I see:
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric
please wait...
