I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a Sony Vaio laptop. The brightness functions keys don't change the brightness. When I try to change the brightness I can see the levels going up and down in the notification bubble but it doesn't actually change the brightness. Is there any way to fix this?
I was trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop Edition on my PC today. I booted up from my LiveCD. Then,I reached up to the Ubuntu loading logo. It stayed there for a few minutes. But then I came to a black screen with the following printed on the screen:
BusyBox v1.15.3 (Ubuntu 1:!.15.3-1ubuntu5) built-in-shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(initramfs) mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on //filesystem.squashfs failed: Input/Output error
Can not mount /dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs) on //filesystem.squashfs
udevd[75]: worker [199] unexpectedly returned with status 0x0100
uvdevd[75]: worker [193] failed while handling '/devices/virtual/block/loop0'
I have also filed a bug report regarding this error: Error while installing Ubuntu
Can someone help me with the error?
I have an internal microphone in my laptop. I think it uses Intel High Definition Audio. But I can't get it to work with Ubuntu. It doesn't work with either the Sound Recorder or Skype.
On the Input tab in 'Sound Preferences', I just see Internal Analog Input Device...
Whenever I boot up my PC from the CD, it starts shows the Ubuntu logo with the loading sign and then gives me this error:
Can not mount /dev/loop0(/cdrom/casper/filesystem/squashfs) om //filesystem squashfs
I tried downloading and burning the ISO again but I got the same problem. I also tried using a Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx CD but it shows the same error too. It happens on 2 PCs, one with 512 MB RAM and the other with 2 GB RAM. The same CD works flawlessly on my laptop.
