kaka install ko lang ng KUBUNTU

 

bat ganun, walang driver para sa modem ko

 

Acer Aspire 2000 Laptop, yung ibang devices ok naman

 

wireless Lan, Bluetooth, Card Reader

 

In most cases, your laptop uses a WinModem. These types of modem require the use of Window's based device driver (which is not found in Linux) to work. There are many projects out there on how to get a winmodem working on a ubuntu based system. I suggest that you do a search in their support forums. And there is actually a pinoy based thread.

guys help naman newbies po sa Linux as in zero talga....

 

meron kasi me CD ubuntu.. ngayon na install kuna sya... at nakaka pag login na ako... kasu di kuna alam gagawin ko :(

 

pano ba i program to??? help namn po thanks ng marami mga sir

 

Hi bro,

 

He actually start doing almost anything with Ubuntu since it already has a lot of applications installed. If you are using Ubuntu, The start button can be found on the upper left side of the screen (where the ubuntu logo is located). You will find out that it already has a lot of things installed.

 

1. Web-Browser -- Firefox -- you can access by going to the internet menu

2. Instant Messenger -- GAIM -- you can use this program to login into your msn, yahoo, ICQ accounts all at the sametime!

3. Office Applications -- You can openoffice Writer, Calc, Impress and Base which can directly open files created by Microsoft Office.

4. Email / PIM -- Evolution -- this is the what we coined the Outlook killer in the Open source world. good for emails, calendaring etc.

 

And once you start getting the feel of the operating system. You can start learning more about ubuntu by going to either the forums (http://www.ubuntuforums.org) or the newbie's guide (http://www.ubuntuguide.org)

 

What version are you using? 6.10? 6.06?

Mga sir help naman sa mga command sa DOS Mode... sa Ubuntu linux....

 

nsa DOS mode palang po ako bali na install kuna yong Ubuntu..

 

nakakapag login na ko kasu hanggang don palang... step by step.. paunti unti.... pano gagawin..

 

thanks po mga sir...

DOS mode? are you planning on doing a DOS emulation to run on linux? or are you referring to the shell command prompt? Take note that there is a difference between shell command prompt and the X terminal window.

 

hehe.. this is basic windows vs linux dilemma. usually when you are in windows bihira mo na binubuksan ang DOS command prompt, unless of course you're a system administrator. in linux you will ALWAYS perform shell commands.

 

but in the case of UBUNTU.. i don't think you need to enter the terminal window. besides, they have nice GUI in their last distro release. also, better not attempt to do it because newbie ka pa lang; you might accidentally tweak something or worse, erase the whole drive.

if you found nothing, try googling for it, I used to encounter the same problem before some hardware providers supply LInux drivers for their PCI modems while some don't, while there are also ones available for a fee. Back then I found a winmodem driver for an Conexant PCI modem, kaya lang free version unlimited use pero hanggang 14.4 kbps lang siya...

Been using Linux since the release or Redhat 6.0. Been using it mostly for server applications. It's indeed a good desktop replacement for Windows. Linux has come a long way. But still using Windows as my primary OS at home coz I'm not the only one using my PC. maybe if I buy a second PC and use it by myself I can use Linux as my desktop OS and totally ditch Windows.

 

 

I was able to ditch windows and boot my PC solely with Linux and my sisters were able to adapt on it, while my father has been able to play music in it and shut it down, and my sister's experience with using desktop Linux has even became a plus in her resume...
