[Solved]Setting up arch with Geforce 610m, not sure which drivers
Just as the subject states, I'm on an asus k53sd with a nvidia geforce 610m gpu and I'm not sure which drivers to install. I believe nvidia from the official repo is a necessary one but what else? There was also an intel based driver but I need to edit in what was since I can't remember.

a GTX 610M is definitely not a legacy card. The 9800GT is, but yours definitely isn't. My laptop has a 480M, and still will be supported by the main drivers for a while. Even the 280 is still supported well in the latest drivers.
You are very likely using Optimus as pointed out by circleface. Especially as you mentionned using an Intel driver, I'm pretty sure you are on an Optimus laptop (like they almost all are since the past 3-4 years). Read this: Optimus and this Bumblebee. You need a special configuration to have it work, involving optirun and prismrun.
You probably don't really need nvidia-xconfig especially if using Bumblebee. I think it does that by itself when it starts so you don't need to configure the hidden xorg server.

If you carefully follow all of the instructions in this tip and none of them restore WiFi then your radio chip has failed and you need to get the phone replaced by Apple. -
I am trying to print redplum coupons and I can't, help. I have updated java, adobe flash, and made sure my printer was set on default. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have contacted redplum and no one will help.
No Apple response??? Redplum/Valassis will not help either. I searched, using the cups error message and though it is Unbuntu, same error so maybe useful...only problem: details would not display unless I join Unbuntu forum. What a pain to do anything with my Mac or find any help. I honestly regret buying this buggy OS.
Anyway, here is what I found, FYI:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=483415
As the old saying goes: when in doubt, consult the manual. The problem appears to be that I added the printer using the KDE Add Printer Wizard. It was automatically given a "socket" URI instead of an "lpd" one. When I:
- altered the printer settings at http://localhost:631 (the CUPS admin page) as instructed in the manual for the printer, and
- copied the PPD file into a second place on the hard drive (as instructed on ubunutuforums, see the link above)
..everything started working.
It's still slower than windows, but I can live with that
Probably a simple fix. Change the socket I.P. to match the printer I.P. like this:
socket://192.168.1.86:9100. The thing I'm concerned with using socket:// is that AFAIK the printer I.P. must not change. In my case I'm able to assign a static I.P. address to the printer but it's something to consider.
I found that the only thing I needed to do was change socket to lpd (and remove :9100 off the end as well). See Solving Ubuntu printer broken pipe problem (DocuPrint C525A) . BTW thanks for steering me in the right direction - very grateful.
Solving Ubuntu printer “broken pipe” problem (DocuPrint C525A)
Posted on November 25, 2008
Are you having a problem with your printer under the latest versions of Ubuntu (perhaps it worked under an older version)? Are you able to print short documents, but not longer, or more graphics-intensive, documents? (e.g. the unfortunate people at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=625493). Do they sit there as Processing for ages and then switch to Held? If you have the same problem I had the solution I tried may work for you too. Firstly, check your cups error log:
sudo gedit /var/log/cups/error_log
If you see anything like the following, the solution may be simple:
[Job 201] Unable to write print data: Broken pipe
PID 13359 (/usr/lib/cups/backend/socket) stopped with status 1!
System > Administration > Printing and right click on your printer, selecting Properties. Settings > Device URI
If you see something like socket://your_printer_ip_address:9100 just change socket to lpd and remove the :9100 off the end. Then click on apply.
Apparently lpd is a more modern protocol which works with most printers whereas socket is more raw (and potentially faster but riskier in a network situation). Somewhere along the line, the default Ubuntu/Gnome setup for networked printers shifted from lpd to socket. Some primitive printers will have benefited whereas a larger number of more modern printers will have suffered.
Please correct me if I am wrong (which is highly possible) but the underlying problem could be that socket may make the printer wait a long time for a large file to be processed ready for printing. Some printers, such as the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint C525A, may drop the socket if things take too long to start coming through.
Changing timeout settings might work but lpd is better than socket so it is the preferred solution in any case.
If this works for you, please leave a comment to let others know (ideally with a description of the printer and Ubuntu version). Printer may be relevant if it doesn’t support the direct stream protocol properly. NB I may take a while to let your comment through because of the volume of spam. Sorry about that.
Finally, thanks to sphilli8 for the steer in the right direction at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6245626.

Slow Preformance on HyperV VM's with IIS. Not sure what to change.
Slow Preformance on HyperV VM's with IIS. Not sure what to change. Doesnt apear to be a Disc I/O issue. Seams to really on happen on VM's that are hosting a mostly static Intranet page. Also same thing happens on another VM that hosts an Apache site. both
are not very large and VM's run on a Local storage space seperate from the OS and good I/O speed. Host Server gets good network speeds. I have the Host and the VM fully updated.
Host Server is Windows 2012 and Hosts are Windows 2008r2
I've gone thur the Hyper V Preformace Blogs and tried to apply all the hot fixes. but most I downloaded said it did not apply to our machine. So Not sure what the issue is.
BizquickHi Bizquick,
>> I did that and Step 4 if thats the case just a few minutes ago on one of the Host's I think I started to see an improvement. But not sure yet. Going to need more testing.
Has the problem has been solved by disable offloads ?

I converted some songs in iTunes to work with an eMusic device. I'd like to delete them, but I'm not sure which of the duplicated songs to delete. Some titles are black and some are gray.
let's just doublecheck some things quickly. do any of the affected songs play in itunes at the moment? if so, when you play them, do they ask to be authorised?
if so, does the authorisation go through successfully, or do you get an error message? (if you get an error message, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
if the authorisation seems to go through successfully, with the authorised songs sync to the ipod? -
I hope you can help me. I purchased adobe captivate 8 on line and when I click on the email link to download, it comes up with 7 programs, some are 64 bit and some are not, my computer is 32 bit. I am not sure which of these 7 to download? All or just the 4 non 64 bit?
I tracked down the problem with the download and installation, my windows 7 was missing a file and after reinstalling windows everything worked out. The first 32 bit program in their list was used. I hope this can help others.

Hello anyone with Windows 7, not sure why having followed instructions above, install of latest version of itunes won't work and can no longer open old version either. anyone help with this?
Hi,
thanks for your reply.
Yes, except n°1 - empty Temp directory, I had tried/checked all of those.
I emptied the local temp folder tonight, but it still won't work.
Please note: the installation doesn't give me any problem. The program was working fine, until at one point *plouf* it stopped working. I can re-install it without any problem, it just crashes when opening.
\\edit\\ I seem to have located the problem, it's in the library files. If I re-install iTunes without my library, it works fine (though there is no music in it, yet). As soon as I import my library, or replace the My Music\iTunes folder with the old one, it stops working. -

So what? The second-hand shop you bought it from didn't follow the right procedures. You also didn't follow the right procedures to make sure that iPhone was not in Activation Lock. It's like buying a car for cash but not getting the title signed over to you. It's not your car if you don' have the title. And that's not legally your iPhone if the previous owner's Apple ID is still registered to the device for Find My iPhone/Activation Lock.
Only a proof of purchase from the ORIGINAL retail store would do any good at all. Return the device to where you bought it and demand your money back. If they refuse, either get a lawyer and/or turn in the device to local police. If you're in possession of stolen property, then the cops won't care about where you got it from. -

Not sure what drivers I need.5 I have what I believe to be a Sound Blaster X-Fi MB card, and I'm not sure what drivers I need to install. The reason I believe it to be an X-Fi MB is because ) I am running Sound Blaster's X-Fi software package by default and have not changed anything on the computer, and 2) it is obviously built into the motherboard since it does not have its own card slot. However, when I go into device manger, the only thing that regesters under audio devices is ATI HDMI audio (I have an ATI Radeon HD 4850 that came with my Gateway FX6800) and Realtek High Definition Audio. I don't know why my actual sound card doesn't register as what it is to my computer, but it is a model with six 3.5 mm audio jacks, and it is in the rear of the computer, while every non-MB version I've ever seen has only 5 or less. This is confusing the holy crap out of me, since I don't know what drivers I should download. Is this something that Gateway has to update itself, or do I have to download the drivers for the audio card seperately? I'm very confused here, and I sure hope someone can [email protected]
Umm... yeah. The link you provided is pretty much useless to me. A 30 day trial for software I already have? All there is to that that I would actually want is the files for the drivers. The rest of what's on that page doesn't adress my current situation. Let me clarify WHAT I need. I need the DRIVERS. Not the updated software in a trial version. Also, if you were referring to the driver below it... that's a no-go either. I did mention this is a legacy (motherboard) sound card, did I not? And that it came with the FX6800? If you would've done your research, you'd realize that the link you gave me is truly useless, since I cannot reinstall the X-Fi MB software, it was pre-installed WITH the computer. But is there anyway to just download the driver only and somehow reinitialize the software with just a reboot? If not, then this link is rubbish. I should, perhaps, also clarify WHY I want the updated drivers. I am an avid fan of Sony ACID, and I have an official copy that I paid for. And whenever I use ACID, the drum kits never work properly. They'll sound like an organ, or a piano, or whatever, but they won't sound like drums. What can I do to fix this? Will updating to newer drivers solve this problem at all? I would assume that the only part of the computer that can adress this issue IS the sound card, and that's why I want an updated driver set. So to be frank, what I really need is a solution to this problem; if you could give me an answer, I would be eternally gratefull to [email protected]

Not sure which way to go for transfer.....
First; let me say that I did search for the answer to this, but I'm not sure which way to go with a lot of the answers. I'm sorry I'm asking this question for the umpteenth time. Yes; I'm one of those that understands enough about computers to make me dangerous...
Our computers are set up on a home network. Before I got my iPod last year, we ripped all our CDs and saved them on a completely separate external drive named "M" (for music), so all 3 computers could have access to the information on the M drive.
I get my pod & have the office computer set up to be the 'main' iTunes location, since we purchased a USB2 hub for it. I quickly learned how to direct iTunes to 'pull' the music from the M file & understand how all that works. Life is good. I even took the time to put an album art file on the M drive & insterted everything into iTunes by 'hand'.
Bless my hubby's heart. Completely filled with computer envy, he just purchased me a brand spanking new shiney computer. Needless to say, with all these new bells and whistles, I can now use my computer as the 'home base' for all things iPod/iTunes instead of having to go downstairs to do updates, etc.
I looked up & printed out "How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer" from the Apple web site, which basically says to download everything onto my iPod's harddrive & do the transfer on the new machine.
I think what I'm trying to ask, is since all the music is located on an external drive:
When I download iTunes to iPod harddrive, are all the tags still in place? Will all the album art be correct, so when I download it onto the new computer, everything will be identical to what's on the old computer?
--or--
Is there another trick I can do to have everthing the same on the new computer?
--or--
Am I better off just having my computer go to the M drive & upload all the music onto my new computer & reload all the album art by hand again?
My real hesitation on this method is I have a lot of things on the M drive that I changed the tags on in iTunes, & I would really hate to go & search through everything again & redo what tags I can find wrong.
I know that this may sound like a lot of trivial questions, but with over 6,000 tracks, I'd really like the process to go as smoothly as possible.
And once again; I'm sorry if this seems like just another 'how do I transfer' question. As I was reading the search results, I didn't notice anything that dealt with external drives being involved & I don't know if any of that makes a differance or not in all of this.
Thank you SO MUCH for your time!!

my acct. shows that I have 5 authorized computers for my itunes acct. not sure which 5 but I do know it is not my new laptop. our main home computer that I use for managing and adding to my music library may have crashed . so I deauthorized all 5 computers (that was my only choice). I was then hoping to authorize just one computer (my new lap top), I was then hoping that my entire music library would then show up via my itunes/apple account where is it ?
How can I transfer my entire itunes acct. history onto my new lap top? any suggestions? or how can I recover my music library off of a potentially crashed computer?You can deauthorise all 5 at once, then reauthorize the one you want.

You need to log into iTunes on the computer you want to deauthorise. Otherwise, contact contact iTunes Store support to see if they can help. -

And maybe you don't talk to too many people but I've been on many forums on different websites where people have had similar problems and a lot of people in the store were having battery problems where they were draining too fast. What I learned is that all the people who did not download the updates are good. There phone is working the same. The people who have, they're having battery problems
I have downloaded every update and my battery life is better than any previous iPhone I have ever owned. I see posts from hundreds of people every day, and this is not a commonly reported problem. While there are a few random reports of battery problems, it is no more than I have seen for any other model or any other version of iOS in almost 8 years. Usually problems of rapid battery drain can be traced to bad apps (FaceBook is the worst offender) or corrupt data being synced from iCloud or other sources (gmail, Windows Live, Yahoo, etc).
The simple test is to restore the phone as New. Do not create any email accounts. Do not install any apps. Do not enable FaceTime or iMessage. Do not enable Twitter or any other social networking app. Use it for a day and check the battery usage. You will find that it is working well.

Not sure which direction I should be heading
I'm going to drop a lot of money on equipment sometime during the next six months, and I'm really not sure which direction I should take this. As I see it I could either go with everything hardware, or I could go with Mainstage. Basically, what I want is to get the sound of me and my keyboardist up to snuff, as it's currently not that great.
What I'm thinking of getting for now:
Hardware route:
Nord Electro 73
a magically great guitarfx
Software route:
Mainstage
M-Audio Profire 2626
Midi foot controller
Macbook Pro 3,06GHz 4GB RAM
As you can see, the Mainstage route will be more expensive. At the same time it will offer more flexibility, and the ability for more bandmates to join in in the future.
Keyboardist will use the following sounds:
- Piano
- Rhodes w/ effects
- B3
- Clavinet
- Solina
- Strings
- (Maybe some C64 SID-sounds)
I guess that's it for now.
Guitarist (me) will use:
- Overdrive
- Amp simulator
- Delay (I know this takes a lot of processing power, so only one or two delay-fx simultaneously.)
- Other, typical guitar-fx.
If I go hardware I'll go with a multi-fx, but I have yet to find any that will let me tap the tempo on one patch and then keep that tempo when I go to the next patch, so they get kind of limited.
We will both be playing at the same time, and latency is important. I want to use it at 16bit/44,1KHz, as I guess that's the lowest I can go. I want to be able to play with 32 sample buffer. At 64 samples the latency gets too long. I guess I could get used to it, but the day I try to run my bassist or other guitarist og lead vocals or backing vocals through Mainstage I don't want to have to excuse the latency.
Is it stable enough? I plan on using the computer as a Mainstage-only laptop, not installing anything except Mainstage and maybe a few plugins. It'll normally not be connected to the internet, with Airport turned off.
There's probably a lot of stuff I've forgot to mention, that I might think of later, but the main question is; which route would you go in my situation? Hardware or software?
Message was edited by: hanerlend
Message was edited by: hanerlendStability will be risky on mainstage. Some people have no problems, other have lots of cpu issues.
I've been running one keyboardist and a backingtrack loaded into exs24 and have had one problem during a show that required a reboot.
EXS24 stopped playing a backing track twice as well - which was pretty major.
I'll be using playback for backing tracks and will not be sending my guitar through the computer. We will also have a drummer playing now, so if the computer breaks, we'll lose keyboards and will be able to continue on and end a song.
I think it's an acceptable risk for the flexibility and cost savings - since I already had a laptop and all the midi gear. And I try to accept a bit of glitchyness as it's a new program. Hopefully that will be changing over the next few months - as this latest version seems more stable and updates should add to that.
If I were a major act playing large shows, *I would not be using it*. And if it continues to cause problems, we'll be looking for something else.
I used the logic environment for our last band. We had three keyboards for three separate people - that worked pretty much flawlessly.
