Why doesn't the GUI display when using a DVI cable instead of a VGA cable?

I'd like to buy a new and extra cable (not the charger) to connect my device to my computer and charge it then as well.

Apparently this kind of cable, micro data usb, seems to be universal. Is it really so as I don't want to damage it if I buy a generic cable.

Any help me would be great :)

Hi,

Quick question on RJ-45 cable. I ran ethernet cable, this cable is about 200 feet long. I only need 100 feet cable, does the extra length going to hurt in terms of speed or signal? Please advise.

Thanks.

Greetings. I have a G2 that i bought for $50 for my wife that has an inoperable touchscreen.. I recently fixed my own G2 (with another G2 i bought for parts) which had a faulty flex cable and so i thought i'd fix my wife's with the extra parts.

The digitizer is good on the phone, I tested it by taking apart my own G2.

I am new to Ubuntu 12.04. A month or so ago I had ATI Radeon video card with plugs for two displays, and Ubuntu showd desktop on both. Then I switched to Nvidia GeForce GTX 680, also dual-display cable. But now it only diplays on one monitor. I made sure cable connections are tight; I know they're good cables because they worked with ATI card.

Any ideas how to get my dual displays back?

I've asked about this before, in general, but I have a more specific question. Regarding Comcast Blast and my lack of excitement for it. I just don't see any speed increase. What I've most recently looked at are splitters. There are 2 of them between the cable coming into the house and the intended destinations.

Hi, I am having a slight problem and am at a loss.

First of all, my phone is stock. I bought my OTG cable a few months ago and it worked just fine. I was using it to play games with my PS3 remote. However, with less time on my hands, I put the games aside and with it, I was no longer using my OTG cable.

So I recently moved into a new apartment which was cable ready ( there was already a coaxial cable line in the apartment). I decided to borrow my sister's cable box to see if we could get free cable, sure enough, 2 years later now and we still get free cable.

Hi all,

I'm moving in a week to a new place that has cable and internet but no tv. What kind of hardware additions/upgrades do I need to import the cable signal into my ubuntu box and then display it on my monitor?

See my signature for my current hardware.

I'm laying out 70 meters U/UTP cat 6 cables between two floors, and I was wondering if someone had a strategy to remove as much torsion as possible from a cable as it is pulled from its roll ?

is this something I should worry about for the long term quality of the cable ? (Fluke testing says that cable is fine)
