| raysaas | I m facing problem like shutdown suddenly with ubuntu 13.10 after installing in Dell Vostro 1450 laptop, but couldn't find out why. Where can I get help. Would u plz mention me? | 14:04 |
| Ekushey | you can't shutdown? | 14:05 |
| raysaas | Laptop shuts down suddenly..... | 14:18 |
| Ekushey | raysaas: hello again | 18:02 |
| Ekushey | sorry i had to go | 18:02 |
| Ekushey | are you still around? | 18:02 |
| Ekushey | are you experiencing this shutdown issue only from ubuntu? | 18:03 |
| raysaas | yap | 18:12 |
| raysaas | My collegues are diverting to ubuntu day by day. I installed ubuntu on one of their Dell laptop but crashes frequently, even though I repaired the boot. | 18:14 |
| raysaas | There is also a message: | 18:16 |
| raysaas | acpid= exiting | 18:16 |
| raysaas | and something like /etc/default/speech-dispatcher disabled. | 18:16 |
| raysaas | please check the paste: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6607674/ | 18:17 |
| Ekushey | hmmm | 18:18 |
| raysaas | I aslo tried by enabling speech-dispatcher RUN=no. | 18:18 |
| Ekushey | how much RAM does this laptop has? | 18:18 |
| Ekushey | speech dispatcher is not a problem | 18:18 |
| raysaas | but there is no sound. Dell Vostro 1450 | 18:19 |
| Ekushey | http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201104-7890/components/ | 18:19 |
| Ekushey | this laptop is certified by ubuntu | 18:19 |
| Ekushey | kindly try using 13.04 | 18:20 |
| Ekushey | i think that should solve the problem | 18:20 |
| Ekushey | once 14.04 is out, upgrade... | 18:20 |
| Ekushey | 14.04 will be a LTS release | 18:20 |
| Ekushey | sorry for the trouble 13.10 is causing, this shouldn't happen | 18:21 |
| raysaas | 13.04 is better than 13.10 ? | 18:21 |
| Ekushey | the x.10 releases can be troublesome sometime... 13.04 should work out fine | 18:22 |
| Ekushey | give it a try | 18:22 |
| Ekushey | before install, try the live mode for an hour or so | 18:22 |
| Ekushey | or longer | 18:22 |
| Ekushey | if you don't face any issues, install it | 18:22 |
| raysaas | I tried 12.04 also. but its horrible on that laptop although its certified. | 18:22 |
| raysaas | http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201104-7889/ | 18:22 |
| Ekushey | not sure why you're having a bad experience, i haven't heard people complaing about laptop in quite some time now | 18:23 |
| Ekushey | this is what i used to hear like 5-10 years ago when support for laptops wasn't that great | 18:24 |
| Ekushey | please join https://www.facebook.com/groups/ubuntubd/ and post your questions there, as there are many more volunteers over there | 18:24 |
| Ekushey | here, usually 2-3 of us hang out and not that active | 18:25 |
| raysaas | RAM= 2GB. I think something wrong with installation process. But I couldn't understand. | 18:25 |
| Ekushey | did you create swap partition? | 18:26 |
| Ekushey | make sure you have a 4gb swap partition | 18:26 |
| raysaas | ya. 7 GB swap area. | 18:26 |
| Ekushey | 4 gb is sufficient | 18:27 |
| Ekushey | twice the amount of your RAM | 18:27 |
| raysaas | But I am confuse swap whether swap would be Primary or Logical partition. | 18:27 |
| Ekushey | logical is fine | 18:28 |
| raysaas | Thanks swap amount idea. | 18:28 |
| Ekushey | np | 18:29 |
| raysaas | Would plz tell me how can I check RAM size in ubuntu? | 18:30 |
| Ekushey | type free -m on shell | 18:30 |
| Ekushey | or free -h | 18:30 |
| Ekushey | did you join on fb? | 18:34 |
| raysaas | A long time ago I joined fb page. | 18:35 |
| Ekushey | ok | 18:35 |
| raysaas | Thank for Terminal commands. Where can I learn these type of useful commands? | 18:37 |

| raysaas | I also fall in troubles using different type of internet usb modems. Is there any graphical modem manager for ubuntu? | 19:01 |
| Ekushey | not aware of one | 19:01 |
| Ekushey | but asking on the fb group would be best | 19:02 |
| Ekushey | i never used any usb modems so not the best person to answer | 19:02 |
| raysaas | ok. thanks. Why do u people generally use this IRC for? | 19:03 |
| Ekushey | generally hanging out | 19:03 |
