Hello,

I got a Panasonic CF-U1 Toughbook, I installed lite and got everything to work including touchscreen.  (that was everyones big problem with the hardware)
The only thing that doesn't work is audio. It will play but is glitch-y as it plays, almost like its skipping.
Tried multiple apps and everything does it out of the speaker or headphone jack.
Panasonic of course is no help, and the internet doesn't have much to offer about using this hardware.
Please note audio work perfect before on winblows vista before install.

Any ideas?


(also hello Jerry!)

This happens to me at all hotels and now at a place I am staying at that has wireless. I have been using LL1.08 for about 8 months and at home my wireless authentication password was initially recognized and then always automatically connected, but nowhere else can I get a connection. it'll see the networks, but the passwords are never recognized and I have to always switch back to W7 to connect.
Anyone else see this issue?

Thanks....am planning on loading LL2.0 as soon as we move into our new home and I have time.
Steve

Hello from the netherlands,

I have installed and tested on LL 2.0 and find that this release (3.17Rc1) is quicker than 3.16 and used lesser memory.
Here it used 239 MB.

Ok, I usually can get by on my own figuring things out. But this is the 2nd run with the installer on this netbook.
I mention "on this netbook" because I ran this same persistent usb Linux lite 2.0 installer last night on my Compaq CQ57
with a Apple Hard drive with no problemo.

Meat and potatos info now:

It's been on this screen for about a hour now after copying files. TOP tells me nothing about installer running. Only says one process running , which is TOP. Nothing about the installer.

Since this is the 2nd effort. I figured I'd post this. Because I do not expect a different result on the 3rd try.If you wish to see partition layout.

Code:

Everything else is working OK on this usb install as I am posting with it.
But this makes me wonder if I should blow it away and start from scratch
with a new made live usb install in case something got corrupted in the installer between
last night and today.

Kinda my track record this past week on my gear. Flat tire on bicycle. ChromeBook will not recover
and is a glorified door stop for now. My finger tips are sliced up from working on brick.
I am in a bad spot of the universe this week I guess. Any encouragement or suggestions welcome.

I can't win for losing in certain situations this week I guess.
I just looked at the installer again. No progress. I am shutting this down.

Edit: This is a OCZ 180 gig 1.8 mini sata ssd drive that arrived in the mail today and is what Linux lite 2.0 is being installed to.
I had no problems installing this on a Apple 120 gig 2.5 ssd drive that came in for the compaq cq57 last night.
So Pebkau does not seem to be the issue here. If anything. I figured I would have had a harder problem install on the Apple hard drive vs this OCZ.

Hi,

Bit of a strange one, or I'm being stupid..!!, LL2 on my HP Laptop

Have installed a new Wireless Router(Asus N66) connected to my Broadband Modem.
The install set-up all seemed fine, Router connected to my ISP and I can see WAN & DNS addresses O.K
However, when I open my Browser, "Page Cannot Be Displayed" , So open a terminal and do some pings:

BBC By IP:

Code:
dave@hp-laptop:~$ ping 212.58.244.119 PING 212.58.244.119 (212.58.244.119) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 212.58.244.119: icmp_seq=1 ttl=53 time=21.9 ms 64 bytes from 212.58.244.119: icmp_seq=2 ttl=53 time=21.2 ms 64 bytes from 212.58.244.119: icmp_seq=3 ttl=53 time=21.5 ms ^C --- 212.58.244.119 ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2002ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 21.264/21.586/21.944/0.278 ms
BBC News By url:
Code:
dave@hp-laptop:~$ ping news.bbc.co.uk ping: unknown host news.bbc.co.uk dave@hp-laptop:~$

So...
I think DNS, recheck router all seems fine, to further test fire up my daughters Windows laptop connect to router that works fine....

Then... I add a DNS Server manually to the connection in LL2 in the connection manager settings, re-start it, and ping again

BBC News By url:
Code:
dave@hp-laptop:~$ ping news.bbc.co.uk PING newswww.bbc.net.uk (212.58.244.61) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from bbc-vip106.telhc.bbc.co.uk (212.58.244.61): icmp_seq=1 ttl=53 time=21.4 ms 64 bytes from bbc-vip106.telhc.bbc.co.uk (212.58.244.61): icmp_seq=2 ttl=53 time=21.0 ms 64 bytes from bbc-vip106.telhc.bbc.co.uk (212.58.244.61): icmp_seq=3 ttl=53 time=21.5 ms 64 bytes from bbc-vip106.telhc.bbc.co.uk (212.58.244.61): icmp_seq=4 ttl=53 time=21.5 ms 64 bytes from bbc-vip106.telhc.bbc.co.uk (212.58.244.61): icmp_seq=5 ttl=53 time=21.7 ms ^C --- newswww.bbc.net.uk ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 5 received, 0% packet loss, time 4006ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 21.058/21.468/21.731/0.275 ms dave@hp-laptop:~$

So that works, and also web browsing now works.... So I'm now a bit confused.??

The only thing I can think of.?
My new router's LAN is in a different IP range compared to previous...
So as LL/Network Manager got the old router settings cached.?, and adding the DNS manually is overriding that.?

Any suggestions/ideas welcome.
Thanks... Dave

i installed 2.0 after using the live CD to verify that my dell laptop would run the software with no issues, I then proceeded to install 2.0 next to the windows 7 installation. once it completed the installation process it asked if i wanted to continue testing or reboot, i selected reboot and it ejected the CD, i pushed the tray back in, the screen has the picture of a feather and a bar on the bottom that continued to move, i tried hitting the enter key like i have in the past for getting out of the live CD, the screen stays on the picture of the feather and the bar on the bottom continues to fill up, after 20 minutes it is still there. is this a normal thing on reboot, should i have selected continue testing and then shut down the normal way? is this a bug in the installer like the screen freezing if you select encrypt the home drive at install?

Very new to Linux.

Installed Lite 2 and works fine . Desktop is great and stable. BUT when it boots ,apart from an inordinate long time , the opening screen are unreadable.

I'm not sure if it is my video card or the way the Lite was loaded ??

I'm using Lite as my full OS on a Dell 2200 desktop . The video card is on  the motherboard .

Would a PCI video help ?

Thanks
