[ubuntu-uk] Linux Job
Hi, During my daily search for gainful employment, I stumbled across this http://www.technojobs.co.uk/job.phtml/1366734 : Which I do not have the experience to do :( It does strike me as a great opportunity I'm sure someone on this list is more capable than me! Good luck Pete Smout -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Good luck Pete Smout That does look good - not sure about the whole relocating to New Zealand bit though! Hmm... there are a few interesting-looking Linux jobs on there... just a shame it's all recruitment agents rather than companies.

[ubuntu-uk] Toshiba Satellite Wireless Lock-down?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, Recently my wife's laptop has been experiencing some wireless issues - slow performance, drop-outs and the like. We have numerous wireless-enabled devices in the house and although we have the occasional blip, none of the other devices seem to be affected to the same extent, so I figured it was probably related to the laptop itself and set about trying to figure out what the problem might be. The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite L450-188 running Ubuntu 12.04 with the LTS backport kernel from Raring. The original wireless card in it is a Realtek RTL8191SE. I tried replacing it with the Atheros-based card from my son's EeePC, but although the card was apparently recognised, and the ath5k module loaded, the card was disabled: jtait@mothership:~$ rfkill list 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes rfkill unblock has no effect - no error, but the card remains hard blocked. The wireless key (Fn-F8) simply toggles the soft block, and the laptop has no hardware switch that I can see. There's a setting in the BIOS that doesn't seem to have any effect. So I picked up an Intel IWL4965AGN card on eBay for a couple of quid and tried that, but the result was the same: jtait@mothership:~$ rfkill list 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes I've tried countless solutions on ubuntuforums and so on. Is it possible that Toshiba have decided to lock the laptop down to a specific kind of wireless card?
