Where Can You Buy Southpole Jeans

language in Ubuntu / Gutsy

I say it, yes, if you can install Windows Administrators Linux machines: loaded at the "English" as language! Sure, Windows does it that way, so that the updates previously given, or to third-party software works at all. So switch the language. The old familiar way sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

no longer worked under Feisty, but under Gutsy. Here you have to manually enter the file

/ etc / default / locale

following:

LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"

still install the language pack:


sudo apt-get install language-pack-de
then the well-tried

sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

and you get after a relogin all in German. More specifically, It is described here:

Can One Bump Be Herpes

change nVidia NIC , Hibernate / Suspend and no network configuration

I have a nVidia Corporation CK8S Ethernet controller on my Asus board. After a suspend the card receives an IP address anymore. The reason for this provides a 0000:00:05.0: Invalid Mac address detected: 71:4 a: 28: d8: 11:00

Please complain to your hardware vendor. Switching to a random MAC.
or On ifconfig
after each suspend / resume cycle, a new network card (eth1, eth2, etc) displays.
Aha: Resume after each changes the MAC address, after which my Ubuntu comes from a new network card. A look at / etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
also shows the scale of the disaster: many records with different MAC addresses. According to a forum post is here to "reversed IP address", which you can park in the BIOS. Who will find no such option, or as I have no desire to restart the computer, which is converting its network configuration of MAC address to PCI address: the correct PCI address is in the
dmesg output, or alternatively you the output of lspci use for the network card and 0000: "before writing (who has already installed multiple PCI buses?). Then we fit the file on / etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

by the entry

SUBSYSTEM == "net", DRIVERS =="?*" , ATTRS {address} == "12:11: d8: 28:4 a: 71", NAME = "eth0"

by

SUBSYSTEM == "net", DRIVERS =="?*", ID = = "0000:00:05.0", NAME = "eth0"

replaced, and of course the appropriate ID is entered. Then it works out then the network after a resume.
