Re: Ubuntu 11.04 server regular crashes

Also consider getting the heat-sink accessory product. When I installed the heat-sink, the running temperature decreased by about 4-5C without active cooling.

Re: The new gma500 driver

prj, could you give us an idea about who would stand to benefit from these new GMA500 drivers? My sense is that the fit-pc community might gain a more maintainable, more reliable, driver that works in future versions of Ubuntu/Mint/Xorg. But from my understanding, we would probably also lose video a...

Re: 2.5" SATA II SSD work?

My understanding is that TRIM mode can work with an IDE controller. My testing of a fit-pc2, with an SSD drive that supports the TRIM function, is that the TRIM function *does* work. The test shows that after deleting a file, it is automatically reset to all-zero, which indicates that the TRIM funct...

Re: Is there a good linux driver for the GMA500?

Could I ask that compulab staff update the wiki page with a little bit more information about the video drivers? All the jargon out there about video drivers is a little hard to understand. Right now, the wiki page says, "The drivers are currently available in binary form for Ubuntu 8.04 and for Ubu...

LIRC (infrared) drivers for Linux Mint do not work

Greetings-- The current driver situation for the IR receiver is that it doesn't work under Linux Mint 9 Isadora. Can the standard kernel please be updated with the correct driver under Mint? The standard driver supplied by 2.6.35-34-fitpc2 simply does not recognize USB vendor:device code 03eb:21fe, ...
