Re: Ubuntu Linux by DonSegmond(m): 6:57pm On Jul 25, 2015 |
purplekayc:10.04 is pretty old, that was released in April 2010. Get something later, it's possible that version doesn't have a driver for your wireless. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by purplekayc(m): 9:15pm On Jul 25, 2015 |
DonSegmond:llok I think I have a 13.04 |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by blackweaver(m): 10:40am On Jul 27, 2015 |
Google63: can you ping 8.8.8.8 ? |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by 4llerbuntu(m): 12:30pm On Jul 27, 2015 |
Can you browse on these Computers? Let's establish this first. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by Google63(m): 3:41pm On Jul 27, 2015 |
blackweaver:how do I do that |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by blackweaver(m): 3:52pm On Jul 27, 2015 |
Google63: in terminal just type ping 8.8.8.8 you should get something like: 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=33 ttl=50 time=99.8 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=34 ttl=50 time=100 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=35 ttl=50 time=99.5 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=36 ttl=50 time=100 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=37 ttl=50 time=102 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=38 ttl=50 time=99.4 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=39 ttl=50 time=99.2 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=40 ttl=50 time=99.6 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=41 ttl=50 time=100 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=42 ttl=50 time=99.0 ms After a few seconds type ctrl+c (that's the control key and c key simultaneously) to end the operation You should get something like: --- 8.8.8.8 ping statistics --- 71 packets transmitted, 71 received, 0% packet loss, time 70088ms if you have 100% packet loss then you have a problem accessing the internet from your terminal |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by 4llerbuntu(m): 6:58pm On Jul 28, 2015 |
I think we should first establish if Internet works on these Computers. Can u open a web browser like Firefox and visit a website first. The 'problem' is not logical...... If u are not messing around with special tweaks and hosts file I don't see a reason why software center won't work And let's be clear, 10.04 is no longer officially supported and won't get updates |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by Google63(m): 5:37am On Aug 02, 2015 |
blackweaver:I got this --- 8.8.8.8 ping statistics --- 28 packets transmitted, 27 received, 3% packet loss, time 27046ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 150.842/278.920/1008.569/204.183 ms, pipe 2 |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by Google63(m): 5:40am On Aug 02, 2015 |
4llerbuntu:I use 12.10, i browse normally on it..used to download from the software centre, it just stopped. instead of the install button, it shows "use this source" |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by blackweaver(m): 8:11pm On Aug 02, 2015 |
Google63: OK now I get, your version is no longer supported which means there'll be no more updates check the following link for Ubuntu versions and their release end of life www.ubuntu.com/info/release-end-of-life my advice is, if you want to use Ubuntu for more than 18 months without changing to a newer version, install one of the lts (long term support) versions. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by purplekayc(m): 7:37am On Aug 03, 2015 |
blackweaver:what version do you recommend @ this point? |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by blackweaver(m): 12:47pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
purplekayc: Did you check the link in my previous post? The most recent LTS version is 14.04, it will be valid till 2019. Funny enough, if you had installed 12.04 it would still be valid till 2017, but my recommendation would be 14.04 |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by Google63(m): 12:57pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
blackweaver:bro, I've gone through the link, but can I upgrade from 12.10 to 14.04? or do I need to do a fresh install 1 Like |
