GRUB Problems - Grub does not give me a menu, just a command line.

Hello All,
Installed arch a few days ago, left partitions spare for windows to be installed later. Here's the configuration I'm using:
/dev/sda1 = /boot
/dev/sda2 = /
/dev/sda3 = Windows (unformatted at the time)
/dev/sda5 = Swap
/dev/sda6 = FAT32/NTFS (unformatted at the time)
This all worked fine, until I...
...installed Windows XP. Windows decides GRUB isn't good enough, and seems to have overwritten it, so...
...I used the arch install CD to boot back into my arch system and ran:
grub-install /dev/sda
This ran for a while and told me GRUB was installed. I then put the following into my "/boot/grub/menu.lst" file:
# (0) Arch Linux
title Linux
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda2 ro
initrd /kernel26.img
# (1) Windows
title Windows
rootnoverify (hd0,2)
makeactive
chainloader +1
This has kind of worked. When I boot, I now get a grub>_ command shell.
If I run:
grub> root(hd0,0)
grub> configfile /grub/menu.lst
I get the grub menu, as configured - and can load into either windows or linux.
Any idea why GRUB is not reading this on boot?
Cheers,
Craig Roberts

Hi All,
Solved the problem. Rebooted and ran the following commands:
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> setup(hd0)
On reboot, the menu came up.
Got the idea from: http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/4622/print
Cheers,
Craig Roberts

Yes. You can't update or restore any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone. The sim card need not be activated, but it must be valid & present. If you want to update, you need to get a sim card.

Everything that you sync to the iPad is done through iTunes or from downloading from the cloud if they are iTunes purchases or through iTunes Match, if subscribed.
It is also not possible to transfer music or certain other files though Bluetooth between other iPhones or Android devices. You can transfer between iOS devices, pictures through devices that are Airdrop capable.

Hp officejet pro 8500 a910 does not give me the option of printing in black and white

Hello,
My hp officejet pro 8500 a910 does not give me the option of printing in black and white. How do I choose to print in B&W when the option does not show up under properties?
Thank you.
This question was solved.

Hi,
From the application being used to print, Click File > Print
Click Properties or Preferences to access the Printing Preferences Dialog.
Click the Advanced button at the bottom of the window.
Under Printer Features, Click the Print as Grayscale selection box and set as High Quality Grayscale or Black Ink Only.

NonLinearFitWithMaxIters does not give correct results for phase

Dear all,
I am trying to fit a sin cuve with NonLinearFitWithMaxIters function of labwindows, but the results given by this function are dispersed a lot (the function does not give same results).
In fact, I have two waveforms signals v and i (of 104 points), and I find the phase between the two signals with NonLinearFitWithMaxIters.
The two singals v and i are measured with an osciloscope.
I use the following fit functions :
v=p1*sin(wt+p2) ;
i=p3*sin(wt+p4) ;
I use the NonLinearFitWithMaxIters function to fit the data and to have the parameters p1, p2, p3, p4. Then, the phase is claculated as follow phase=p4-p3.
The problem is that the phase calculted between the two signals (v and i) is different for each run for the same conditions.
In fact, for a same condition, I measure different times the signals v and i, and I calculate the phase p4-p3, using NonLinearFitWithMaxIters. The goal is to calculate a mean of phases for the same condition. For example, there are cases where the phase=-5 degree, and other cases when phase=12 degree.
For ten measures of v and i, the phase calculated is different. I get a big dispersion between the phases.
I would like to know please why I have a big difference in phases calculated with the same condition?whern using NonLinearFitWithMaxIters.
I read that this function does not give all time the correct results, is there a way to know when the results are not corrects and when they are correct ?
And is there any solution to find accuratly the phase between the two waveforms.
Thank you for your precious answer.

The pseudocode which I am using is :
v_err=NonLinearFitWithMaxIters(array_x,array_v,v_y_fit,1252,100,sinus,v_coef,2,&v_mean_squareError);
The fit function is
double sinus(double x, double a[],int noef){
return (a[0]*sin((w*x)+a[1]));
I use the same inital coeficient of v_coef for each run :
v_coef[0]=0.03;
v_coef[1]=0.2;
These coeficient are choosen arbitrary.
In this case, the number of points of the data is 1252 (the data of array_v).
The number of iterations is 100.
For the array_x, the distance between adjacents values of the array is dt=0.4*1e-9(difference between array_x[i] anv array_x[i+1]=dt=0.4*1e-9 ).
for (i=0;i<1252;i++){
array_x[i]=i*(0.4*1e-9);
The means square error returnned by the function when it is complished is small, of the order of 0,001.
I read the help
« From the help:
You must pass a pointer to the nonlinear function f(x,a) along with a set of initial guess coefficients a. NonLinearFitWithMaxIters does not always give the correct answer. The correct output sometimes depends on the initial choice of a. It is very important to verify the final result.
That means that the function cannot be used, as it does not give correct results. How
can we check if the results are good or not ? in my case.
I think that in my case, the function does not give correct results, but how can I check if the results are good, or not ? The mean square error is small.

Photo clicked with flash does not give clear image

photo clicked with flash does not give clear image

I did some more testing with this, and it appears to be a Gmail problem with iOS iPhoto.
I called Apple support, and this issue was escalated to engeneering.
When sending photos from iPhoto for iOS via Gmail from the iOS device, only the small and medium sized photos can be opened in Mail on the iOS device. The large and original photos do not open in Mail.
This occured across different devices I tested, including iPad 2, 3, and 2 separate iPhone 4S devices. All were updated to the lastest firmware. iPhoto was uninstalled, and reinstalled.
When sending and receiving photos from iPhoto for iOS via iCloud me.com email servers, all the photos of different sizes could be opened in Mail fine on the iOS devices.
It appears that Gmail servers somehow change the way the photos are encoded, and make them not viewable on the iOS device. Very disappointing, since the native Mail program has no problem, and photos sent via gmail or other are fine.
Another iPhoto for iOS glitch!

Is the item compatible with your model iPod and iOS version? If not you will not get a Buy option.
Have you purchased media from that country's iTunes?App store before?

If you press Ctrl+n to open a new window, does it have all the menus and toolbars?
If you restart Firefox, does the display return to normal?
If those don't work, you could try Firefox's Safe Mode. This will let you temporarily disable add-ons to work around any problem there.
You might want to back up Firefox before using Safe Mode. For help with that, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
[http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
Does that restore your menus and toolbars?

I have restarted the iPad - still the same? What else can I do?
Thanks

Judging by the reviews of the current version of the Kindle app you aren't the only one haveing problems with it - it looks like Amazon need to fix something with the app.
Have you tried closing the Kindle app via the iPad's multitasking bar and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? Double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the Kindle app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
You could also try deleting the app and redownloading it via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on it (you will then need to redownload your books in the app, assuming that it opens).

I am using FF 5.0.1. The English spellchecker add on does not work.It will underline the misspelled word but does not give you the correct spelling choice.

I did not upgrade to 4.0 because I did not like it.I thought I was upgrading finally to 4.0 assuming at this date they had fixed all the bugs and updated the add ons.
I downloaded the latest version and love it, love it except the one add on that I use more than anything does not work properly.:-(
Please notify the developer of this issue.

"SafeBrowser'',
No it does NOT show up as I said before the ONLY option is "paste" there are NO suggestions showing up.
As I said before,I have used this same add on for many years and earlier versions and have had no problems until version FF5.01.
''cor-el'',
I have already done all that prior to posting here.
Even as I type this response the spell check add on puts a red squigly line under your screen names but does not give me any suggestions.
I am frustrated beyond belief because I am a faithful and dedicated user of this browser and I am going to just roll back to a older version until this silly issue is resolved.
I appreciate all your help but I suppose until the person who developed this add on does something to make it compatible with FF5.01 I will not be using it.
I apologize for any misspelled words but my spell check extension is not working properly. :-(

Gnome Software Updates does not give notifications

Hi all!
I have a problem with gnome-settings-daemon-updates. When I open the Software Updates window everything works perfectly, which means that the application interacts well with libalpm. But, now, automatic notifications ("New updates available") don't appear anymore. So, if I don't click on "Software Updates", Packagekit does not give any notification. The intervals of time between notifications are correctly setted on "one day". Any idea?

You may have to get the updates from the App store if that is where you purchased them. Or if your machine came with Lion already preinstalled iPhoto only updates from the App store anyway.

M127fn phone does not give signal fax when pressing 1,2,3

Hi, I am Marc and I am new to this forum. Kindly excuse me of any wrong doing on a prior notice. Thanks! I bought the HP M127fn 4in1 unit one month ago and I am still not able to use this unit fully. On my old fax, Panasonic KX-FP342, when the phone rings and I answer, I can make a normal phone call or press the fax signal button to give a fax signal if it is a fax. However, If I do not answer, the panasonic unit picks up the line and gives a fax signal automatically after 5 unanswered ringtones. With the HP M127FN, I am not able to do this procedure. For description, I have the HP unit connected to the wall outlet and 2 phones in my house. One of the phones is connected to the HP Printer extension port and the second phone is connected to another separate socket ( to the same phone number ). When the phone rings for 5 times and I dont answer, the machine picks up the line and gives a fax signal automatically ( which is the normal procedure). But, the problem is when I answer the line. When I pick up the line and the caller asks me to give him a fax signal, I press 1,2,3 ( i tried this using the normal line and the extension line ) but nothing happens on both lines. So i appologize to the caller and ask him/her to call again which is really annoying me since I get around 10 to 15 faxes per day. I want the unit to answer automatically give a fax signal ( regardless of the caller's type ) after 5 ringtones and I want to answer the phone and be able to give a fax signal by myself if necessary. Fax answer type = automatic, rings type = all rings, extesion phone line = yes, rings to answer =5. Please Help!!!!

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that your HP Laserjet m127fn phone, does not give signal fax when pressing 1,2,3. I am happy to help! According to page 48 of your printer's user guide: LCD control panel 1. On the product control panel, press the Setup button.
2. Select Fax Setup, and then select Fax Recv. Setup.
3. Select Extension Phone.
4. Make sure that the On option is selected.
With this setting turned on, you can alert the product to pick up the incoming fax call by pressing 1-2-3 sequentially on the telephone keypad. Turn this setting off only if you use pulse dialing or if you have a service from your telephone company that also uses the 1-2-3 sequence. The telephone company service does not work if it conflicts with the product. 5. Press the Back button to return to the Fax Recv. Setup menu.
6. Select Answer Mode.
7. Select Fax/Tel, and then press the OK button. With this setting, the product automatically picks up all calls and determines if the call is a voice or fax call. If the call is a fax call, the product handles the call as an incoming fax. If the incoming call is detected as a voice call, the product generates an audible synthesized ring to alert you of an incoming voice call. 8. Press the Back button to return to the Fax Recv. Setup menu.
9. Select Fax/Tel Ring Time.
10. Select the number of seconds after which the product should stop sounding the Fax/Tel audible ring to notify you of an incoming voice call, and then press the OK button. Hope this information helps! “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”
