Drivers for Linux OS

My laptop is Lenovo G570.
Lenovo didn't provide drivers and other softwares for Linux OS. As I would like to install Ubuntu, where can I get those?
I checked the website but it didn't find them for linux. 

ubuntu should have everything you need already there. some lenovos (i don't know about your particular model) have issues with the uefi which is like a bios but hates linux. in this case you have to change out the grub 2 bootloader in ubuntu for grub legacy. if you run into this problem try linux mint its very similar to ubuntu minus the unity overlay, but it still runs regular grub. another problem my b570 and some v570's have is with the wireless. if you run into this issue open a terminal and type the following commands
sudo service network-manager stop
sudo rmmod acer_wmi
sudo modprobe acer_wmi
sudo rfkill unblock all
sudo service network-manager start
sudo rmmod -f acer_wmi
then to get the settings to stick after reboot type
sudo su
echo "blacklist acer_wmi" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
exit
and you will have working wifi

  • Display drivers for linux

    I have Toshiba Satellite P20, and I would like to install debian or mandrake distribution, however there is serious problem with display configuration. I cannot set proper screen resolution. Does anybody know where I can get drivers for linux?? Graphic chip is GeForce FX Go5200 with atypical screen resolution 1440:900 pixels.

    Hi MichalDyzma,
    months ago I had the same problem with a toshiba notebook of a friend. He wants to install also a linux distribution and I found a very good linux page from toshiba.
    Maybe your model is also listed as linux compatible!?!
    Here is the link www.toshiba-tro.de then go to Operating
    System and Unix based systems.

  • Broadcom 4401 Lan Drivers for Linux

    Hi
    I recently bought   648 Max (MS-6585)  with Broadcom 4401 onboard LAN chip.
    I couldn't find drivers for Linux for the lan chip. The rest of the system seems to work fine.
    Does anyone have experience running linux on this motherboard?
    thanks

  • JDBC Drivers for Linux

    How come Oracle's web site only has downloads for NT and Solaris. Where do I get the latest JDBC driver for Linux?

    You should be able to use clases111.zip from AIX or NT with your
    Linux client, just copy the file, and add it to your CLASSPATH.
    I'm using classes111.zip from AIX (8.1.5) on NT and Win95
    clients.
    This will work for the thin client, the oci8 needs SQL*Net
    (and some more support libs.) installed to work

    Hello,
    Does anyone know where I can find linux drivers for the F20-136's tv tuner? I understand that the Qosmio Player is based on linux so presumably they do, but I have been unable to find them.
    Ideally, I'm after Suse 10 compatible drivers.

  • Quick quesion about C-Media drivers for Linux

    Ok, I have Linux Mandrake 9.1 working fine on my 865PE board, except for sound. Since I want my Mic port and line in to be used so I can have my 5.1 sound, which set of drivers do I install from C-Media's site, I notice they have two different sets of drivers for mainboards, or, if there is a link on MSI, link me to it, didn't see it on msicomputer.com
    This is the C-Media link
    here
    Thanks.

  • JDBC DRIVERS FOR LINUX (8.1.6)

    So that we may better diagnose DOWNLOAD problems, please provide the following information.
    Where can a person download the JDBC Drivers (CLASSES12.ZIP ORA)
    for Linux? I see information on Solaris and NT but not Linux.
    - Server name
    - Filename
    - Date/Time
    - Browser + Version
    - O/S + Version
    - Error Msg
    Connie

    if you have oracle 8i server you will find the classes12.zip(thin jdbc drivers )in the [ORAHOME]/jdbc/lib directory. You have to added the zip to the classpath in the jserv.properties file eg. wrapper.classpath=D:\oracle\ora81\jdbc\lib\classes12.zip(if you orahome is D:\oracle\ora81.)
    otherwise for just using the java classes for compiling and running in the consile you have to set the classpath of classes12.zip in your system environment.
    Thanks.

  • Winmodem drivers for Linux

    Greetings: Reading some of the posts for the first time (I just registered today) I see some folk having a challenge finding drivers. May I suggest a source for Winmodem drivers and help installing them? (For those of you new to Linux, a Winmodem is a modem that uses Windows to do part of its job and thus save the machine maker a few pennies, while making things tougher for Linux users. Winmodems are pretty much the rule in laptops, except for Macs.) Go to http://www.linmodems.org/ and follow the directions. Download the scanModem tool, run it and post the results. The volunteers running the site will offer advice from there at the discussion group. I started out using Red Hat 9 and tried to get the Agere Systems Winmodem on my R40 to work. Pure frustration. We finally got it to work -- sometimes. IBM pulled the link to Agere's page listing the driver. I ended up using a PCMCIA card modem. More recently, I fried the card modem trying to connect on a PBX, so I tried the internal Winmodem again with the guys at linmodems.org suggesting a different driver. We have success. The only downside is that I have no sound through the modem, which hasn't been a problem for me and my use of the machine. It just means that I don't have to listen to the beeping and the hissing as the connection is made. Please pardon me if I'm being redundant; I haven't read all the posts, having just registered. I hope this may prove to be useful for someone. By the way, I currently have three operating systems on my R40: Win XP (booted a couple times a year), Knoppix hard-drive install (my test drive in a Debian-style Linux distro) and Debian (my workhorse).

    very informative article thanks for sharing!
    Cheers and regards,

  • No JDBC drivers for Linux??

    On the Oracle Tech Net site, it seems I can only download
    JDBC drivers for NT or for Solaris... no linux...
    Where can I get Oracle JDBC drivers for 8.0.5 for Linux?
    Thanks!

    The thin driver will work from either download (classes111.zip)
    since it is pure java. There is no OCI driver for Linux that I
    know of.

  • GTX 460 drivers for Linux

    Hello,
    I've been searching for the Linux drivers for the NVIDIA GTX 460 card and I can't seem to find them. There are no certified or beta drives on Nvidia's website for Linux x32 or x64. Anyone know if they exist? Some people on Google say they do, and vice versa.
    I have 2x 460s on SLI.

    Hi Coz_64,
    I agree with the user above. Toshiba doesnt support linux on their computers so you have to search yourself for drivers. You should ask in Linux forum
    The most users here are using preinstalled Windows version
