Re: NotQuiteReadyboost

When swap data is lost I expect nothing bad to happen at first. If you're lucky you're system is going to continue operation almost as normal. Of course it depends entirely on the data that is lost If it's just cache data, nevermind. If it's application data, that application is probably going to cr...

Re: Salix OS on samsung rv511

OK, two things. First of all run slapt-get -i kernel-firmware to pull a more recent firmware package which includes that specific driver/chipset. Apart from that please make sure that you're actually booting the new kernel. Check if the output of uname -v says 3.3.6 (and not 2.6.37.6). It probably d...

Code: Select all

ls -l /lib/firmware/brcm

Please, you're throwing wildly stuff together here which makes it impossible to understand what's going on. Please open a single thread for each issue and provide more and especially more accurate information! How are you triggering the error messages? Where exactly do they appear? How are you insta...

Unrecognized token "7" at or above line 68 in file '/etc/lilo.conf' Know look for that line number and a 7? What do you see: label = Windows 7 There must not be a space in the label. This is probably going to work: label = "Windows 7" just edited the time from 5 seconds to 2, an...
