I want to install Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS on ASUS ROG GL552VX-CN059D in dual boot with Windows 10, but the system freeze after I try with option "Install Ubuntu" or "Try Ubuntu ..." from Grub.  What is the problem? Thanks!
I have a Asus ROG G551VW laptop and I'm trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 on my laptop, but when i try to load the installer, my laptop just freezes and its fan starts working for no reason. I have tried to install Ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop and the installation went smoothly. What should I do if I want to install Ubuntu 16.04 on my laptop?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When disconnecting from WebSphere MQ with C# client TCP connections are still in CLOSE_WAIT status Is there any way to recover deleted files which may have since been overwritten? I deleted lots of files &amp; folders on my laptop and then I put a new files in the same folders. I need to recover the deleted files. I tried a lot of recovery software and I couldn't recover my old files.   I read that if you refill the folders with new files after deleting old ones then I can't recover them again. Is that true?   What should I do? How do we know the brain flips images projected on the retina back around? Why do we turn images upside down again rather than dealing with them directly, still vertically rotated after passing through our lens?   I don't see how that would cause any problems, and how we'd ever be able to figure out if we are presented with flipped images after getting used to interacting based on visual input, whether flipped or not.

Approximation algorithms for min vector subset-sum over GF(2) In  vzn asked about the following problem, which I'll call Vector-Subset-Sum.     Given a set of vectors $v_i$ over GF(2) and a target vector $y$, is there a subset of the $v_i$ summing to $y$?   In the answers, comments, and referenced papers I noted   The decision problem is in P. The natural minimization problem (finding the smallest subset) is NP-hard. It's related to the problem of finding sparse codewords in a linear code.   My question is: are there any known polynomial-time approximation algorithms for the minimization problem in (2)? I know very little about coding theory, so there may be some obvious or well-known approximation-preserving reductions to (3) that I have not seen. Is it true that the order of $ab$ is always equal to the order of $ba$? How do I prove that if $a$, $b$ are elements of group, then $o(ab) = o(ba)$?   For some reason I end up doing the proof for abelian(ness?), i.e., I assume that the order of $ab$ is $2$ and do the steps that lead me to conclude that $ab=ba$, so the orders must be the same. Is that the right way to do it? How is the Schroedinger equation a wave equation? SVM for unbalanced data I want to attempt to use Support Vector Machines (SVMs) on my dataset. Before I attempt the problem though, I was warned that SVMs dont perform well on extremely unbalanced data. In my case, I can have as much as 95-98% 0's and 2-5% 1's.   I tried to find resources which talked about using SVMs on sparse/unbalanced data, but all I could find was 'sparseSVMs' (which use a small amount of support vectors).  I was hoping someone could briefly explain:   How well SVM would be expected to do with such a dataset   Which, if any, modifications must be done to the SVM algorithm What resources/papers discuss this Monitor hard drive changes to files Several months ago I saw someone using an application that showed him files on the computer being modified in real time.  Basically there was an application that wasn't working correctly, so he installed the program, ran the application, and saw all the various files that the application either read from or wrote to.  He found out the application was writing a large debugging file it shouldn't be, which ended up being the problem.  I don't remember the application or the name of the person who used it, but I believe it's a freeware application.  Does anyone know what this program might be?

Is Gauss's law wrong, or is it possible that $\int_s{\vec E} \cdot d\vec{s}=0$ does not imply $\vec E = 0$? This is a question from David J Griffith's Introduction to Electrodynamics.      A specified charge density $\sigma(\theta)=k\cos(\theta) $ is glued over the surface of a spherical shell of radius $R$. Find the resulting potential inside and outside the sphere.   The question was solved using legendre polynomials and the final answer for potential inside the sphere was : $V(r,\theta) = \frac{kr}{3\epsilon_0}cos\theta$  This final answer is confusing because The Electric field inside the sphere is coming out to be dependent on $r$ and $\theta$ whereas electric field inside a shell, no matter what the charge distribution is outside, is $zero$ from gauss's law.      my doubts:         why is the electric field inside non zero?    Can gauss's law explain this, or does it fail here?      Since solving using ordinary surface integral gave me the same result and since the. divergence inside the shell is $zero$, I concluded that legendre polynomials and gauss's law in differential form are correct. So the problem should be with the integral form of gauss's law : $\int_s{\vec E}.d\vec{s} = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$  The answer I got for this doubt is that  "since the charges are glued to the surface, and not evenly distributed, electric field inside need not be zero. "     This is not convincing because proof of gauss's law does not expect the charges to be free to move. presence of an exrernal force that would hold the charges in place does not change the theorem. That is    Say only a single charge $q_i$ is present outside      then $\int_s{\vec E_i}.d\vec{s} = \frac{q_{inside}}{\epsilon_0}=0$      Now if there are more charges, following any distribution, net electric field $\vec E = \vec E_1 + \vec E_2+\vec E_3+...$       So the net flux,       $\int_s{\vec E}.d\vec{s} = \int_s{\vec E_1}.d\vec{s}+\int_s{\vec E_2}.d\vec{s}+\int_s{\vec E_3}.d\vec{s}+. . .=0$   Or is it possible that $\int_s{\vec E}.d\vec{s}=0$ does not imply $\vec E = 0$? When do I pronounce a non-existent “r” between adjacent vowel sounds? If I say two words consecutively, with the first ending in a vowel sound and the second starting with one, when is it correct to include a non-existent r between those two words?  Examples from phrases I've heard:        I saw (r)a movie   They saw (r)us   Law (r)and order   That's the idea, (r)anyway.      I heard the last one in the movie Edge of Tomorrow yesterday.  Is this grammatically correct? If so, is the omission of the r grammatically incorrect? Are there any rules regarding this? How widely-accepted is "What do you got?" to Americans? Watching , I noticed that Melanie Griffith twice asked    I recognise this as an American construction which sounds strange to me — Brits invariably say either "What have you got?" or "What do you have?". But I'd be interested to know if it's considered "normal" by most/all Americans, or if it's regionally or otherwise restricted. I am logging in to my Ubuntu Server using my username.
