just an fyi, i'm really impressed with the touchscreen on my asus working out of the box and having predictable behavior. thanks ubu dev team. i complain a lot, but i like to say thanks when i'm really impressed.
@RolandiXor your new gravatar looks a lot like the album cover for streetsweeper social club's one album
I also figured out how to get flash running in ice cream. Thinking about trying to pull the .so out of the apk and see if i can get some hackish workaround going on Ubuntu-ARM
I want to play with turning the arduino usb shield (device) in to a usb host shield for the teensy. I think that would be pretty epic.
Next question...if we have photos from near space with the raspi, how long before we have the first raspi powered hobbyist satellite
Also, I thought Rinzwind's rebuttal needed to be next to your observation...so I placed my stars accordingly.
I can think of a couple of interesting raspi projects for field technicians...if/when I have the time and inclination.
@NathanOsman Do you know if you get significant performance gains for using bcache? Like is it worth the time backing up and re-installing my new system to use the SSD as cache-ing or should I just write that off and use it as superfast storage
I get lots of useful communication with that as a bounce point. It's not my preferred method of discussion, but if you want to talk to ... a particular type of person ... you listen to it.

@jrg Drifter? Yeah I've got my beady eye on that. Just my sort of thing. Only problem with it is it looks a bit 2D; everything's laid out in one plane, there's no up or down, which is a bit odd for space but does make things a bit more simple.

I've used Ubuntu in the past (set up as web server, etc over in Iraq), so I'm not a 100% Linux Noob, however, I'm running into a brick wall here.

@ath88 theoretically you shouldn't have to use alternate though. you can drop to a command prompt on any installer. your answer might be more forward compatible if it didn't depend on alternate since alternate went away, much to my ... dislike ... recently
@CallmeV I guess. But i had problems with the normal installer getting stuck on 'Configuring hardware..'. I have no idea if that is related to the GTX 580, or if its something else. And i suppose there will be an alternative installer for as long as the 12.04 LTS is supported, right?
@Mohit you could. if you want the same setup, you understand partitioning, and you just want to move a liveusb to an identical HD install, use the old BT installation tutorials. they use the tar piping thing to preserve partitions
@ath88 yes. i'm just thinking ahead. if the answer is good, it should live. while it has alternate dependencies, i can't bounty it and donate some rep because of that thinking.

seems like you'll need to resize stuff, so this closed as duplicate question should suit your needs. it was also the very first search result for gparted, liveusb
also, the reason your screen dimming settings aren't preserved is because you aren't using a real installation. you're using liveusb without persistence (or with and no logon script). so it's a you problem, not an ubuntu problem.
@CallmeV Cool, that should bring some attention to the subject. Good thing i have some spare time at hand to look into it. :) You mentioned that it is possible to get a shell with the normal installer?
same ctl-alt method as before. identical. the installer just uses a thin x11 instance to run the installer, so it's just like dropping to a command shell on alternate or on a full install by switching to another getty
@Mohit i'm done talking about it. live-usb is not the same as installed. read the gparted question, do a full install for dual boot, your problem will go away in all probability
if you do that, and it doesn't, come back and we'll work on it
i can't see what you're typing. you're on ignore. i can only determine that you spoke because your position in the top right moved. when you finish an install ping someone to ping me, and they will.
@ath88 I fixed my brighness problem by adding start up program with command -xBacklight -set 65, it will be 65 whenever i login. I don't want to lose data. Ask him to remove me from ignore list.
@CallmeV Mohit: @ath88 I fixed my brighness problem by adding -xBacklight -set 65, it will be 65 whenever i login. I don't want to lose data. Ask him to remove me from ignore list.
@CallmeV I just hope you two figure it out. I understand the frustration from both ends, but i think i observe that Mohit probably should do a bit more in-depth reading. Just my 5 cents.

hi! There's a user James who is running from the Live CD, installing a bunch of software, then his Casper/Squasfs filesystem gets full (duh) and posting questions over and over again with the same symptoms. How do we deal with this? I VTC'd one now, but I think the other vague questions all come down to the same. Moreover, all he's trying to do isn't worth it - installing kernel modules in a live CD. askubuntu.com/questions/314936/…
"I am running from live cd, trying to install so i dont need the cd" <-- really does not make sense as an argument. Maybe he thinks that changes to the Live environment are copied into the installation?
Or maybe he thinks that by booting off the Live CD with Ubuntu installed on the hard drive he is installing things on the installation. But clearly, he is trying to install stuff to an installation he isn't in. It's a big mess.
i need to know how to make ubuntu save to the 100+ GB hard Drive, i never got the answer before. I have recently uninstalled and reinstalled and dont know how to use this large space, im getting no answers — James5 mins ago

There are two different folders called the "root" folder: / (the root of the filesystem, which is really the only folder that should ever be called the "root folder"), and /root (the root user's home directory.

@DevynCollierJohnson Probably not. It seems likely that this is asking about / (the root directory) rather than /root (root's home directory). Furthermore, this also asks about lost+found (which is always in / but never in /root, since in practice /root is one of the few top-level directories nobody puts on a separate filesystem. — Eliah Kagan7 mins ago
being a crappy service is fine, but don't lie to me. your install tech was supposed to be here today. it was marked as done, but i was supposed to get a piece of hardware. didn't happen. i get on the phone with support "must happen by friday 10am even though you already cocked it up once" evidently means, meh -- whatever.

graveyards aren't so bad. i worked them for a while when i was doing waffle house. just remember you could be serving waffles and eggs to some drunk for half your salary or less.
@Mitch Hi, sorry for the delay. For your answer I would ask the OP to tell you what lspci, lspci -vv or lshw -c network show, because depending on the 1520 model it has 2 or 3 different wireless cards. It has 2 intel and one broadcom. This will quickly help you narrow down which model the OP has and which method to use to install them. You can also guide them to my guide about askubuntu.com/questions/55868 in the case it has a broadcom and the model is convered there.
