http://askubuntu.com – I am using this enclosure over USB2 with Ubuntu 11.10: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817173042 After a period of inactivity, the enclosure seems to sleep and Ubuntu isn't able to wake it. I have confirmed that the internal drive is working (no bad blocks, etc). Furthermore, in Windows when the enclosure sleeps it seems as though Windows is able to wake it upon accessing the drive. In Ubuntu I only get I/O errors when accessing the mount point. The relevant portion of syslog is shown below. Can someone tell me if this confirms my thoughts above? What should I do? Mar (HowTos)

I'm going to be building a new system this winter as a replacement for my dell laptop-turned-desktop which has a twice broken screen, slowly dying HDD, and slowly dying USB. This'll be my first time building a computer...

My goal:

I am new to Ubuntu, the desktop that it(Ubuntu) is installed on does not have a cd drive yet. I think I have found one on newegg but i am worried that it will not be supported by Ubuntu because it is not listed in the compatibility section. Here is the link if someone could check it out and tell me if it will work.

This usb adapter is not working with ubuntu 10.04 64 bit! Please someone tell me what to do! I used ndisk, and it has the latest driver, now, but no networks show up on the menu! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-187-_-Product

Hello all, inspired by this article from the New York Times, i wanted to make an ubuntu computer that would sit in my living room and hook to my LCD hd tv and be able to handle hul

I am making new a Desktop for Ubuntu 9.10 and some Windows 7 usage probably in Virtualbox :).

My main goal is to build a budget computer for around $600, but I may go a little higher. It's main function will be storage & general usage and some gaming (with wine not windows :)).

Here's my list:

I want to build a very parallel (at least 24 cores) AMD opteron (bulldozer) system.

I'm looking at some motherboards and I can't figure out if they're UMA or NUMA (uniform memory access vs non-uniform memory access.)

Are most multi-socket motherboards one or the other architecture?

Here are two I was looking at:

I need to get a new power supply as my last one blew up and would like to get some recommendations. Personal experience is very welcome here, so if you've got a power supply that has been working for you for a very long time I would love to hear about it.
