BIOS upgrade issue on my E50 with Linux

I see that there is a new version of BIOS/firmware for my E51 and I wanted to upgrade/flash it, but:
1. I don't have floppies (nor are they available in my neighbourhood)
2. The CD drive I got with my system stopped functioning right after a fortnight after my warranty expired and I did not bother to replace it since I use USB drives for flexible storage.
3. I am using Ubuntu and don't have a Windows license.
Now, how do I upgrade the firmware?
I can't burn it on a floppy (1. because there are not new floppys available and 2. even if I manage to get one old one, how do I transfer the f/w image onto it in Linux since only a .exe is given)
I can't burn it on a CD drive (cos' I don't have a CD drive at all)
What I could do?
If possible (and supported), I want to burn/install the ISO (provided by Lenovo) to my USB drive and boot the system using the USB drive and run the upgrade. But, there doesnt seem to be any way to do this. Lenovo neither mention anything nor gives a USB-install software.
What I tried:
I tried the usual software that install an ISO image to a USB drive, but that did not help. I never got to any screen that asks me if I want to upgrade.
Anyone knows any way out?
This is my last hope before I decide its enough and sit to write my own software. (:-))

Wow. Two days and not a single person knows what to do. Now, I know which brand of PC I should not buy. HP is way better, atleast they have a bios flash utility that can configure the bios upgrade to run off a pen drive.
Let me find my way out. Good day.

GE70 2PE Bios upgrade issue

I am trying to upgrade my bios to the newest one that is on the website but I get the "efi security violation" msg every time! is there a solution to this?
I am also looking into a unlocked bios (donation is no biggy) but I still need to figure this out first before I get a unlocked bios so please help me.
edit: I have switch between windows 7 64bit to win8 to win8.1 as I have 3 different hard drives. but the main OS im using is the win7 64bit and is loaded into the system (running on samsung ssd)

appears to be correct
not sure why you have this error
you can flashing with alternatives by using attached file
and depend of OS from where you want to flash to execute:
FLASH.bat = dos
FLASH.nsh = uefi shell
FLASHWIN64.BAT = Win 64 bit

MSI 760GM-P23 (fx) bios upgrade issue

Hello every body
I just bought a gamer PC from an computer supplier.
Is has the following spec.
AMD FX 4170 / 4.2 GHz Processor - AM3+
MSI 760GM-P23 (FX) - Micro-ATX 3000 AM3+
8GB DDR3 1600MHz Kingston HyperX (1X8GB)
Nvidia GTX650 (2GB)
Kingston SSDNow - 2.5″ SATA-600 120GB
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 - 3.5″ SATA-600 1TB
Cooler Master Elite 430 - ATX Sort
Cooler Master GX Lite 600W - 120 mm
22x DVD/RW DL Sort SATA
I had Windows 7 and all drivers installed and unit was working fine. I then decided to use the MSI Live Updater to update all drivers etc.
In this process the bios was updated to v.17.13 and before the update the unit was running v.H.A
After bios update had finished updating in Windows, i rebooted the system and then i have not been able to boot to Windows or Windows install 7 since.
I have uploaded 2 videos to youtube so that you all can see what the issue is
Search youtube for these two videos.

I have tried to downgrade the bios, and i dont get any error when trying to do so, but after rebooting the system again, i see that the bios has NOT been downgraded.
Can somebody tell me what might be the issue?
I personally think it is the BIOS chip it self, that was up by the update and now is somehow looked and faulty.
HELP!!

Sounds like Live Update just claimed another casualty. Unless another forum user can come up with some more suggestions, it is most likely RMA time or a pc shop in your area that has an SPI flash programming device should be able to restore the BIOS chip for you.
Next time, for BIOS updates, please use the fourm's USB flash method.

Ram Upgrade issues can't boot with 8 gb but can boot with 6gb?

So my macbook pro already has 4 gb of ram, but i always heavily use my electronics, so i wanted to upgrade my ram. I bought the ram, it came in the mail, but when I tried it out, I got stuck on the white boot screen. The circle spinning got stuck.
HOWEVER, when I only used one stick in conjunction with one of the 2 gb sticks, everything works just fine.
Does anyone know whats wrong?

How to upgrade to iOS 5 (iPhone4) with linux!!!!!!!! not windows!!! not mac!!!!! buy a 500€ thing that isnt yours......

....

There is no version of iTunes that will run under Linux. Some people have reported success using WINE or a VM to run iTunes, but of course it's not supported by Apple so you'll be on your own. Other than using another computer to do the update, though, it's your only option.

Report generation toolkit upgrade issues

I have created multiple vi's in that utilize the previous report generation toolkits specifically using the Generate Report Get Data to Modify.vi and the Generate Report Set Modified Data.vi. Obviously the report reference has now changed in 8.6's version of the report generation toolkit and these vi's do not exist in the 8.6 library anymore. What vi's do I need to replace these functions with to make this code work. Can anyone tell me what the work around is to solving this problem. This is a picture of the code.

Hi BJD1613,
The Report Generation VIs on the LabVIEW Palettes mutate properly. However, you may run into upgrade issues if VIs distributed with LabVIEW, but not available in the Palettes are used in the code. Hence, I would caution against using them for the same reason.
In this case, the specific references do exist in the report generation classes; however, since they are private, they cannot be accessed by VIs outside the respective classes. A temporary workaround for now is mentioned in the following KB 4OOCSJ4M Getting References in Report Generation Toolkit 1.1.3 with LabVIEW 8.6.
This was reported to R&D (CAR# 123064) for further investigation

Install HRCS 9.0 R5 with Linux Issue: upgrade Database HRCS 9.0 from PT8.52 to PT8.53

Folks,
Hello. I have been installing HCM and Campus Solution 9.0 with PeopleTools8.53. Server machine is Oracle Linux 5.10 and client machine is Windows XP. My internet architecture is WebLogic11g/Tuxedo11g/OracleDatabase 11gR1. Peopletools 8.53 runs correctly in browser.
In Oracle Linux 5.10 Database Server machine, I run the scripts "createdb10.sql, utlspace.sql, hrcddl.sql, dbowner.sql, psroles.sql, psadmin.sql and connect.sql" one by one. Then I use Data Mover to load data from Windows XP into Oracle Linux 5.10 DB instance HRCS90. The Data Mover script hrcs90ora.dms completes successfully in Windows XP. Configuration Manager is set up correctly. But when I login into Application Designer, I cannot login and get the message as below:
"Security Table Manager (Get): The database is at release 8.52. The PeopleTools being run require databases at release 8.53."
I have been following the document http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37306_02/psft/acrobat/PeopleTools-8.53-Upgrade_02-2013.pdf to upgrade HCM and Human Resources 9.0 Revision 5 Database Instance HRCS90 in Oracle Database Server with Linux. I have been following chapter 4 task by task to do. Actually, I have run 4 scripts into HRCS90 as below:
Task 4-3-5: run rel853.sql at SQL> in Linux.
Task 4-3-6: run grant.sql at SQL> in Linux.
Task 4-5-3: run ddlora.dms in Windows XP Data Mover into HRCS90.
Task 4-6: run msgtlsupg.dms in Windows XP Data Mover into HRCS90.
Then need to run Task 4-7 to copy project ppltls84cur Project in Application Designer. When login into Application Designer with Database HRCS90 and UserID and pwd PS, I get the same error message as below:
"The database is at release 8.52. The PeopleTools being run require Database at release 8.53."
Application Designer is supposed to login by Task 4-7 to copy projects but it cannot. I have tried to fing out what's wrong as below:
In task 4-1-3: I cannot run script dbtsfix.sqr in Linux and Windows XP.
In task 4-1-9: script ptupgibdel.sql does not have the string "End of PT8.53". There is no script ptupgibdel853.sql to run.
In task 4-3-6: when run script grant.sql, table PSSTATUS and PSACCESSPRFL don't exist. There is only PSOPRDEFN table.
I continue to do task by task in chapter 4 until task 4-27 that's the end, but Application Designer still cannot login. All of Application Engine Programs and SQR Programs cannot run.
My questions are:
First, does Oracle Database HRCS90 has table PSOPRDEFN only without table PSSTATUS and PSACCESSPRFL ?
Second, what's the error by task 4-7 when Application Designer still cannot login ?
Third, why Application Designer still cannot login a the end of doing chapter 4 task 4-27 ? How to solve the issue ?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I'm not quite sure what you are missing, but it looks like you missed a script which could cause problems. You need to look through your logs for errors. Are you running rel853 as the AccessID user? I don't know how you would trash PSSTATUS in this process.
You don't mention running this.
Task 4-3-2: Creating Tablespaces
This step runs the PTDDLUPG script, which builds new tablespaces as part of the upgrade to the new PeopleSoft release.
It creates tablespace PSIMAGE2, which doesn't exist in the datamover load you did. Oracle moves and puts around 208 tables here when you run rel853 from what I see.
The first line of rel853 is
UPDATE PSSTATUS SET TOOLSREL='8.53',
LASTREFRESHDTTM = SYSDATE
This is what changes the tools release, sometimes people just run this one update to gain quick and dirty access to a different version.
I pulled this download and ran through it myself without incident doing all the steps you say, adding in 4-3-2 which you seemed to have skipped. I built a system database.

I ran the other 3 quick scripts. Not sure if it was necessary, but I reset the passwords and re-encrypted them with the new 8.53 datamover for the new salted encryption and fired up app designer. It works. By the way, you should probably run rel853n, it utilizes "newer" (for PeopleSoft that is) data-types than just rel853.sql that were delivered with the 9.0 application line. Since this is a new 9.0 based app build it should be used.

External USB keyboard does not work with T60 after BIOS upgrade

External USB keyboard does not work properly with T60 after 2.26-1.07 BIOS upgrade.
It does the same with or without the docking station.
Anyone else bumped into this problem yet?
Has someone found any fixes for this?

Hi and welcome the forum!
Try uninstalling all USB hub devices from the device manager and reinstalling them again, particularly the keyboard's.

Install PT8.53 with Linux Issue: Jolt client (ip address 192.168.196.102) does not have proper application password

I think the error is indicated in TUXLOG file "ERROR: Jolt client (ip address 192.168.196.102) does not have proper application password". The application password "myname" in Browser http://192.168.196.102:8000/ps/signon.html page is not working. I use the same password "myname" to login Data Mover Bootstrap mode, Application Designer, and Application Server psadmin configuration successfully. I have tried a few other passwords in Browser http://192.168.196.102:8000/ps/signon.html page but not working.
My question is:
How to solve Sign In issue on http://192.168.196.102:8000/ps/signon.html that is "ERROR: Jolt client (ip address 192.168.196.102) does not have proper application password" ?
Thanks.

Dear Nicolas,
Hello. I have used the same password for "DomainConnectPswd" in the file Configuration.properties with that for Application Server setting. Eventually, UserID PSADMIN sign in http://192.168.196.102:8000/ps/signon.html successfully. PeopleTools 8.53 runs correctly in Browser.
It seems that whether upgrade Oracle Linux 5.0 to the latest 5.10 does not have effect !
I am very grateful to your great help for this installation of PT8.53 with Linux and Oracle Database !

Wireless Lan connection issue with Linux clients

Hi
In a large Wireless Lan enviroment for a university, we have 3 WISM moduls attached on a 6k hw - Manged by ACS v6.0.181.0
We recently upgraded the software version of the controllers from 4.x to 7.0.98.0 - the Emergency Image version is 5.2.157.0
Since then, the students with Linux clients have massive connection issue - repeated connection lost in a short time period.
However the students with Windows clients have no problem at all.
The studends report, that their linux clients getting so much of some kind of unnecessary broadcast traffic which can not be handled by the NIC - and the NIC goes down - and this happens all 5-10 minutes.
Affected Linux clients are: Ubuntu v10.10 - also OpenSuse, Fedora and Arch-linx with latest OS version.
Any Idea how I could solve this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi Nicolas
Thanks for your reply. The broadcast forwarding is disabled on WLC's.
Pls find below the attached picture, which shows the captured broadcast traffic on a linux client (sent by a student to me).
I'm not sure, if its really only the broadcast traffic, which the linux clients can not handle.
From my point of view, it seems also to be that the linux clients are somehow disadvantaged among the other clients like windows or mac, if they all trying to get a wireless connection.
But the fact is only the linux clients are affected - and this happens to the linux clients only in our wireless infrastructure.
Windows or Mac clients have no such problem at all

Enis
