Random blocking - W510, Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid

Hello

I was faced with a problem in which case my W510 becomes inadmissible at the keyboard or mouse entry and must be restarted. This happens from 4 to 6 times a day.

I couldn't put my finger on what makes it, then post it here in case others have had similar symptoms.

I'm on 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid). The symptom of the hang is as follows:

-always active mouse pointer can be moved across the screen]

-(sometimes) the mouse pointer shows the little hand grasping the hand such as the one displayed when you try to move a window (not the normal pointer)

-ctrl-alt-del doesn't do anything, or none of the keys alt - Fx, or ctrl-break etc.

-they have a USB key connected to ports USB LHS

-Sometimes the subsequent startup crashes

-Sometimes the flight caps lock flashes on and outside, but not always

-There is nothing obvious in/var/log indicating a kernel panic or such other event

The fact that the problem is w.r.t. a bit sticky at the next boot gives to think it might be an overheating issue, but I don't currently have a way to measure this. Are there tools that monitor CPU temperature and the newspaper?

I would be interested to know if there is no diagnosis or I can activate traces that might give me a better understanding of what is happening.

The problem with the resolution that I've connected with has been set using configuration of the display resolution using the Ubuntu default display configuration tool, not the Nvidia tool.

(BTW: the resolution is 1600 x 900, 1600 x 1200, as I have indicated by mistake).

  • Random blocks

    Hi guys,.

    Only 1 week ago, I bought a Compaq Presario CQ62-217AX a local electrical retailer. But the minute I took the laptop out of the box and turned on I had problems with random blocks etc. I checked online for answers with very limited success. So I checked the event viewer and the error message came as:

    \Device\RaidPort0, restore the device, has been published.

    Source: amdsata

    Event ID: 129

    There are several entrances warning that all coincide with the portable gel. When it locked up I can move the mouse and switch between windows but everything stops responding for about 2/3 minutes.

    The overall response, that I had since in line seems to be that change the RAID controller in the BIOS from AHCI to IDE, it should resolve with very little loss of performance. However, I don't see any option in the BIOS to do.

    Everyone has ideas!

    I was getting this error on a HP g62-435dx.  I tried a number of updates to pilot, updated for the new bios... no luck.

    Finally, I changed the sata driver from the amdsata at the ahci driver generic windows 7 and it seems to have solved the problem.

    If you want to try, go to Device Manager-> IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers-> Sata Driver.  Select 'Update Driver'-> 'Browse my computer for driver software "->" Let me pick from a list of drivers on my computer', then choose it "Standard AHCI 1.0" pilot. "

    Note: I don't have an A / B comparison on the performance of the hard disk between the two drivers, but there is no noticeable change in performance (CrystalDiskMark gives me about 80 MB/s, which, it seems to me, is fine for a disk 5400 RPM).

    In any case, good luck.

  • VMWare on Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid)

  • Router randomly blocking websites

    It is one of the strangest things I've ever seen.

    My router is connected to the internet... and I can access the internet... at least a part of it.

    However, it blocks some Web sites.

    Now, to be clear... these aren't FTP sites... or anything that I think should cause any form of security to block.
    For example... a site is the bank where I pay my monthly mortgage on the House. Another is the site of a local University.

    I used to be able to get to the two Web sites... .but something changed a few weeks ago.

    There is no IP blocked... blocked .or anything, of any kind put in place in the configs. I even went off as to add access to IP from one PC to "allow access to blocked sites" as a test... which doesn't work anymore.

    I have reset several times I mean.
    I set the router to the factory default.
    I reloaded the firmware.
    I looked for anything or any reason in this router as to why he could block these websites and I can't find anything.

    I'm sure that some are asking if I've hard isolated to the router. Yes, I have.
    When my cell is on the home WIFI, it cannot reach these sites.
    WIFI is off, my cell to reach cutting sites.
    What happens to something else, pass through this router, wired and wireless.
    With my ISP, I confirmed that they do not block anything.
    I know that they are not the issue anyway because when I bypass the router and go directly to the modem cable, Web sites are blocked is no longer.
    In addition, I used an old TP-Link router instead of this router and the sites are not blocked.

    For anyone wondering about Chrome, Firefox and IE... I tried all 3.
    I deleted the cache and cookies in all 3.

    As I said... this problem is very isolated to this router.

    I really hope that someone can offer some advice because this thing is about to go out a window. I did not pay so much money for this level of aggravation in my life.

    I tried to call Netgear... I have had regard to the request of the series... where I'm supposed to say 'Got It'. And no matter how I said, yelled it... etc... just kept Netgear phone system play this stupid music and telling me to say "had" when ready.
    Honestly... If they can't manage a system better than this phone, maybe it's that I should expect from this router.
    Yes... I called at least 5 times and got the exact same experience each time.

    I tried your suggestion Searay... in fact, I tried several combinations... nothing.

    The most important part of the process of change of MAC address, it is you power cycle the modem (router also if you want, but above all the modem). If you do not have this change of MAC address on the router will simply kill your Internet connection. More often as otherwise, that solves the problem of inaccessible sites, which is mostly nothing to do with the router (regardless of brand).

  • Fusion 5.03 with Windows 8 comments random blocks "HAL_INITIALIZATION_FAILED".

    Hi all

    For about half of an anneei run a guest Windows 8 Pro (pardon my french) 8 of Parallels Desktop. Before that, I've been using Parallels Desktop win Windows 7 for a long time without any problem, with Windows 8, I had a lot of problems. Three times after a reboot the VM would not start, complaining of the alteration of the virtual disk. This could not be corrected, not even with the help of Parallels support so I was forced to return to the virtual machine backups.

    After the last time that happened I decided to give Fusion a try to see if it is more stable. I have used it for two weeks now and so far am very happy. One thing bothers me however, and that is that, at apparently random times (once every few days), Windows crashes with a blue screen saying "HAL_INITIALIZATION_FAILED". Fortunately restart the virtual machine works in these cases so nothing major is lost, but this isn't rock solid performance I was hoping.

    A piece of information that might be relevant (but perhaps is a Kipper), that is I run the virtual machine with the (not support put in "Hyper-V" as type of client operating system . I need this because I want to use the VM for Windows Phone development requiring Hyper-v for the emulator. This could be a reason for the accidents? If so, is it recommended that I have spend the type of operating system on Hyper-V only when I actually use the Windows Phone emulator? Everyone knows comparable questions?


    I'd love to hear any comments and suggestions. My trial period is coming to an end and I only had to spend money buying the merger if I can count on her to be stable.


    system information:


    The Macbook Pro 15-inch, early 2011

    Fusion 5.03

    10.8.4 OSX

    Windows 8 Pro

    Guest OS type: Hyper-V

    Intelligence of Windows is changes to the Windows operating system when she realizes that it is running in a virtual machine.  They are provided by Microsoft and may or may not be supported by the hypervisor host.  An example for Windows 8 would be the relaxation of the dog timer to guard used to detect a CPU has locked up.  If Windows knows it is running in a virtual machine, it is not expected a response as fast as it does in the physical world.

    Unfortunately, if we try to use any intelligence, Hyper-V will recognize that he is running in a virtual machine and will refuse to start.  As long as Microsoft supports this position, do not expect Hyper-V to be supported as a guest operating system.

    It is not really "safe" to use the Hyper-V guest OS type.  I would say using a virtual machine throw for your Windows Phone development and store all your important data out of the virtual machine.

  • Get random blocks of black pixels in the blue areas of the image.

    I open the images where there would be a blue background, and get blocks or streaks of black pixel no reason apparent. Using CS 5. How to prevent or correct? Thank you, Jim.

    And that means that you need to update your driver from the website of the manufacturer of the GPU video card.

    Most likely you have an AMD graphics card and are experiencing a bug introduced last year and fixed several months ago.

  • May not know how to check the updates of Firefox for Ubuntu

    I'm under "Firefox 3.6.13 Mozilla Firefox for canonical Ubunto - 1.0". How can I verify updates? Here the user manual in the help site says to look for updates in the Help menu article, but there is no such a. I can't find it in the Tools menu or Edit > Preferences. Where he's hiding?

    Your user agent shows the version Ubuntu/10.04 (lucid) brand.

    Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101206 Ubuntu/10.04 (lucid) Firefox/3.6.13
    

    These versions can only be updated from the repositories via software update and not via Firefox, so you have to check this and expect Ubuntu offers a such update.

    If you want to update yourself you need to install Firefox by downloading the relaes official of the Mozilla server.

  • Is there a solution for random freeze / lock on Aspire 5745PG?

    Since we bought our 5745PG it would freeze at random - block is complete, do not respond to the mouse or keyboard, requiring a hard stop and restart.  Usually, this would happen when he was not yet in use, just sitting idle.  We went to use it and find frozen.  Occasionally, it would happen when you browse the web - gel suddenly.

    I read somewhere on the web something like "uses of the image on their laptop acer has a problem that causes freezing but if you install a new copy of windows, it works very well".  So finally I had time to try Windows 8 on him and, in fact, it worked very well for a while, but then one night recently it froze again and need to reboot a hard.

    [After the reboot, Windows wouldn't boot and continued into recovery mode, but the recovery still fails.]  I tried a Windows 8 "refresh" which is supposed to restore system files - still wouldn't boot.  Then I made a Windows 8 "reset" (which is basically reinstalled the operating system) and then it would boot, but now inexplicably the system fan was at full speed to 100% of the time.  So it doesn't seem that it was a success solution.]

    Since then, I reinstalled a fresh copy of Windows 7, as well as the drivers available on the Acer support site (except the NVidia graphics driver, but that's another story), including the update of the BIOS 1.19 and cela worked a few days before freezing once more!

    Anyway, long story short: there at - it a cure for freezing randomly?  Did I just get a "lemon"?  I guess it was my mistake not to return or get a warranty service.  Any clues out there?

    Well try a reload Using the the ALT + F10 on boot and executed through option 1. Make sure you have a backup of the files before going through this.

  • Microsoft Update Web site are asked to download something? Now my fully paid version and the trial CD are completely blocked.

    Hello
    On one of my pc's I had two versions of Windows XP Pro my fully paid version and a version of 120 day trial CD that came with my new paid for Microsoft Training Kit book #2. I was using on my virtual machine to remove malware and viruses practice on Windows XP without infecting my host pc. The problem is I was infecting the virtual machine with some real nasty virus on average 20 virus samples per day. After getting a viruse lock Em all the bad guys, a relocation was my only option. I never came close with a 10 days of my free trial. Then, your stupid Update site wanted to download something? Then my fully paid version is no longer me lock out of my pc? Funny as. Looks like Microsoft has done something to my fully released version to stop it running? I have six pc and began to change their everywhere for Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid. I'd rather give up my Windows operating system to be manipulated and held hostage by Microsoft.
    These six will be the last Windows OS that will use or buy.
    I hope you see that your strong attitude to a dying OS will cost a lot of customers. I installed Ubuntu on all the PCs I've fixed since you me locked out of my machine. My clients will be bow not down to you and nor will I.

    Then restarted and would not even load Windows XP host as he stopped on my keyboard, my mouse and numbers. It was right after the download and execution of what is from Microsoft Update Web site.

    As previously stated, more details needed. You can see the desktop? Is it just that your devices (mouse, keyboard) do not work?

    You can also try to start safe mode to see if it works. Restart your computer, press the F8 key before the Windows logo appears and select Safe Mode from the list.

  • Display refresh problem: Pixellations

    Pixelation occurs only in Firefox. I tried to plug in computer screens and other screens, LOC and the problem is that the same no matter what screen is hung. It only happens with Firefox and not other browsers or other programs on my computer, including the desktop. Because I can't post a screenshot, I will try to describe what I see. The header sidebars and Firefox display a master random gray squares that hide the text as the text menu, but not white address bars. If I move my mouse over the gray block, it refreshes and correctly display the menu icons and text. The passage of the mouse refreshes the text and icons, but not the background of the menu headers or the sidebar. They remain cut upwards with random blocks of color opaque dark squares, rectangles and the combinations of these sizes.

    Hello

    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.

    You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

    Then perform the following steps:

    • Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
    • In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.
    • You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
    • Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.

    In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

    REALLY? You call this an update? He broke the browser for me beyond repair I couldn't access my favorites. All the addons have been disabled (most of them anyway). Safe mode did nothing to help. Resetting the browser has no FACT TO HELP. This isn't an update, that it is a piece of garbage that you sent.

    ESCAPE VELOCITY? N ° it's alpha tests on all users who wish to 'stable' version I don't want to not even address them. I use firefox since version 0.7.2 and it is a shame.

    You DID a browser which is now WORSE THEN INTERNET EXPLORER. I am removing it and never use again. Any change that has happened to the browser since version 3 and more seems to be broken on a permanent basis. Version 23? Yes well. There were 20 iterations that have led to this piece of garbage that I can't even call a browser anymore.

    Adobe Flash crashes.
    Shockwave flash crashes.
    Java is disabled permanently.
    Random blocks on "phishing sites.
    Random bugs that persist version after version.
    Random memory leaks that eat up my ram any (8 GB of ram).
    Randomly everything.

    But it's ok we have graphics html 5 and accelerated in a browser. Because I use my browser to play Crysis and HD movies on the pc.

    given that I have not seen similar reports on these problems in version 23 specifically here or elsewhere and I have something like this known myself, I have to assume that this is not a general problem in version 23.

    It is a mainly managed by the community support forum, we here are normal users like you. so, if you do not want to solve your problem, but just leave your comments, this is probably not the right place to do (we are not responsible for any changes or we can implement bug fixes - developers in general will only read here).

  • confusion of iCloud/iPhoto

    I tried announces the following last night, but was denied a position. (problem discussed in another post that was hosted by.) The last paragraph is an update on what has happened during the night.

    How does the process of transfer to iPhoto/iCloud? I have trouble because of a data cap on my satellite service. When I got to El Capitan, I tried to "update" my photos from iMac to use iCloud library and exhausted my 10 GB in a single day. Since then, I have disabled on all devices iPhoto library. When I need to update I have light them between midnight and 0500 when there is no Cap. However, now I'm trying to get my photos in a new iPad, began at 0001 a.m.. First uploaded the photo I had taken with the iPad. Then he said that it was download 4000 + photos. The option to maximize the space was lit, iPad 64 GB of storage. Then it says download and 10 minutes later, he updated and gave time. that is, it appeared to have completed the download. Then I tried to disable the library, so I wouldn't have to worry about a sort of spontaneous transfer in prime time. He said that I would lose 4,000 pictures on my iPad, but they remained in the cloud. I cancelled looked around the photo program for information on how many photos I had but could not find. At back and tried to turn it off again. This time the same message but with a different wording. Tried the cycle starts again. This time, the wording is, "the iPad could not download 4 467 photos high resolution and videos.» If you continue, the versions low resolution of these photos and videos will be deleted. "It's confusing. It cannot dl the high res so it will remove the low resolution? Did he dl pictures or didn't she?

    How can I download new pictures from my cameras / iPad to the iCloud, have low resolution or vignettes on devices and download full resolution photos only when I specifically ask for them?

    I left the iPad download photos and went to bed. This morning, he stopped the download, but not all of the photos are here. iCloud has pictures dating back to 2004. The iPad has their back to 2010. There is, however, not all photos from 2010. There are random blocks of several months to a lack of time. these missing blocks begin in 2015. What is going on? I understand how to use iCloud? In fact iPhoto part an inconsistent mess? Should I buy my extra storage space in DropBox instead of iCould? At the same time, I can't understand how to use the program correctly I have trouble getting a manual base and can be used to help. (Discussed in another thread). Is there an iCloud for Dummies book which is updated?

    Thank you

    Geoff

    You are confusing a lot of terms. iPhotos is replaced with the Photos application. iPhoto & Photos are different application, so be specific on which you need help with.

    In your post you are referring to the use of the iCloud library where you store all your photos in iCloud. If you have devices without enough memory, then the parameter optimize allows you to use the photo library iCloud without consuming your entire memory or hard drive space.

    The library of iCloud is a paid service from Apple after 5 GB. I'm sure you know that now. It may take a very long time to download your photos and there is a maximum amount, you can download every day. So depending on the size of your library and the speed of your connection, this may take several days. I don't think that it turn on and off is a good idea. Use and leave that it enabled on your devices, or don't use it at all.

    Heres a basic guide to use iCloud photo library. Read this carefully to get a better understanding. You will get more help, if you ask your questions on the use of Photos in the Photos forum.

    You can google the topic iCloud photo library and get more sites:

  • Satellite A300 - Graphics Driver update needed

    Hello

    I am writing this hoping someone from Toshiba will be able to help me to find and update for laptop Satellite A300, short model: PSAJ4E.
    I am running Windows 7 (64 bit) and Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) on another partition.

    I noticed I was encountering problems more often because of the graphics card is not not to date.
    I am looking for an update for the ATI Radeon HD 3650 series.
    I checked the AMD for and to update, but it seems that most cell phone manufacturers do not want to distribute updates. They had however an update for the ATI Radeon HD 3xxx series in December 2010, but the following comment wrote:

    Following books are not compatible with this version: *.

    All laptops launched after this version of the driver
    Portable computers compatible switchable graphics card using Intel® chipsets.
    * _Toshiba® portable (please contact the laptop OEM for support of the drivers for these books) _ *.
    Sony VAIO® Laptops (please contact the laptop OEM for support of the drivers for these laptops)
    Notebooks from Panasonic® (please contact the laptop OEM for support of the drivers for these laptops)

    This comment is in the following link: [AMD | http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalyst1012ReleaseNotes.aspx]

    And before someone sent it to me in the updated drivers from Toshiba on the following link: [Toshiba | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 153 & selProduct = 781 & selSho rtMod = 697 & language = 13 & selOS = 30 & selType = all & yearupl = DST & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = all Machines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = all & selectedLanguage = 13 & type = all & page = 1 & ID = 68813 & DISO = 30 & driverLanguage = 42]

    I checked and the update on the Toshiba site is the previous update... it has the * version 8.634.1 * and AMD is at version * _8.801_* with their AMD Catalyst 10.12 software suite.

    I know laptops are not updates as much as a normal desktop pc, but it would be nice to receive updates that came out for the products that we bought.

    If possible could someone direct me, so that I can get the driver for Windows and Ubuntu?

    Kind regards

    > I checked AMD for and to update but it seems that most cell phone manufacturers do not want to distribute updates...
    Do you know why?

    For example, I have the Satellite A300 PSAG8E and use it with Windows XP Home edition and Win7 32-bit dual boot and everything works perfectly.

    I had a R850 and complete random blocks of the laptop. When it crashes the fans start to run at full speed and windows is locked. I need to turn off the laptop and start over.

    This can happen three times at a party, but it can also occur only those per week.

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to tell exactly what is happening.
    Each new laptop comes with preinstalled OS own and something like that should not happen. Later, when you start to install the updates or applications, it can happen that a background application blocking system.

    In my opinion you should check the preinstalled stuff, processes running in the background to see who can be responsible for this, either you need to reinstall the recovery image and check how it works with the factory settings.
