Hi,
Hope you pepl wud b fine.
Few weeks ago I purchased a HP Pavilion dv4 1131TX laptop. I installed Ubuntu on it with vista as dual boot. Now, in Ubuntu,everything works fine except:
1. Minor Problem: I couldn't enable appearence effects. It asks to enable some extra nVidia driver.I try to enable it but it doesnt enables.
2. When Ubuntu is booted completely I can see the wireless netwrok connected in top right corner. Its connected to my college's wifi network. In my college,after connecting to the wireless network, to access the internet,we need to open any website,for the first time every session, a login page appears.There we need to login. It works completely fine in Vista.But in Ubuntu when I try to open any website in FF immediately Address Not Found error comes instead of the login page. FF behaves as if there is no network connection at all.
Please highlight what could be the possible reasons and how to fix it.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Aki
