I am a complete newcomer to Linux but a long time hater of Windows so decided to make the jump.   New HP laptop, and a installation of Ubuntu later, I’ve hit a problem.   There is no WiFi adapter found. I’ve looked up guides and all of them seem to involve plugging in an Ethernet cable, but the problem is nothing happens when I plug an Ethernet cable in either!   I’ve gathered that it’s something to do with missing drivers but I’m really not sure what to do next.   Please someone take pity on my complete lack of experience with Linux and give me an idiots guide to sorting this out.   OK so the wired connection is now working, this was a fault with the cable not ubuntu. However no wifi adapter still an issue.   I have run lspci -knn | grep Net -A3; rfkill list and returned   lspci -knn | grep Net -A3; rfkill list 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

We just bought a Lenovo  (which is supposed to have the Intel 8265 for wireless). This laptop was bought in part because it is certified to run Ubuntu and as such to me at least it would make sense for things to work out of the box... but no such luck.  First, I installed Ubuntu 17.10 and after installation realised Wi-Fi was not working. I also tried Ubuntu 16.04 from a USB drive since that is the version of Ubuntu it is certified for, but no luck there either.  The wireless chip is not detected by lshw (or even lspci by the looks of it), ip link does not show a wireless interface, and the iwlwifi kernel module is not loaded at boot (I can load this myself using modprobe iwlwifi but this does not make Wi-Fi work). I think it is a combined Wi-Fi/Bluetooth chip, and Bluetooth does appear to work (or at least Bluetooth shows up in Gnome and rfkill list).  modinfo iwlwifi | grep 8265 shows me a file ending in -34 is supposedly loaded but only a file ending in -33 (and some other lower numbers) is present in /lib/firmware, if that helps).  I have also installed the Linux 4.14.9 kernel in an attempt to get things to work, but this did not resolve the issue either.

Device [10ec:c821]     Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:c024]   Update  I just noticed that the laptop does not have an Intel wireless chip at all, but in fact has a Realtek one... which means that the  of the shop I bought this laptop at were not accurate... Sigh. Same problem stands, however, just with a crappier wireless chip.
How will old M42 lenses work on a Nikon camera? I'd like to estimate the correlation between:  An ordinal variable: subjects are asked to rate their preference for 6 types of fruit on a 1-5 scale (ranging from very disgusting to very tasty) On average subjects use only 3 points of the scale.  A continuous variable: the same subjects are asked to quickly identify these fruits, which results in an mean accuracy for the 6 fruits.   Is Spearman rho the best method to analyze these data and/or are there other good methods I could consider? Allow us to vote to delete from the Android app Currently, the only way to vote to delete (and undelete, since you can't see deleted posts) in the Android app is to open the post in a browser, and then vote to delete from there.

Are there any governor limits, or considerations that I should be aware of when using Apex Describe methods?  So for example, the author of this blog post uses the structure below to get the record type instead of doing a soql query.     //Generate a map of tokens for the sObjects in your organization Map gd = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();  //Retrieve the describe result for the desired object DescribeSObjectResult result = gd.get('Account').getDescribe();  //Generate a map of tokens for all the Record Types for the desired object Map recordTypeInfo = result.getRecordTypeInfosByName(); system.debug('RECORD TYPES:' + recordTypeInfo);  //Retrieve the record type id by name String recordTypeId = recordTypeInfo.get('RECORDTYPE_NAME').getRecordTypeId(); For f continuous on $[0,1]$, show that there exist points $\alpha_k$ such that $\sum \limits_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{f'(\alpha_k)} = n $ How to force Mac window to foreground?

Two different solutions to integral Given the very simple integral  \begin{equation} \int -\frac{1}{2x} dx \end{equation}  The obvious solution is  \begin{equation} \int -\frac{1}{2x} dx = -\frac{1}{2} \int \frac{1}{x} dx = -\frac{1}{2} \ln{|x|} + C \end{equation}  However, by the following integration rule \begin{equation} \int \frac{1}{ax + b} dx = \frac{1}{a} \ln{|ax + b|} + C \end{equation}  the following solution is obtained \begin{equation} \int -\frac{1}{2x} dx = -\frac{1}{2}\ln{|-2x|} + C \end{equation}  Why are these solutions different? Which is correct?   The second solution can be simplified \begin{equation} -\frac{1}{2}\ln{|-2x|} + C = -\frac{1}{2}\ln{|-2|} -\frac{1}{2}\ln{|x|} + C= -\ln{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}} - \frac{1}{2}\ln{|x|} + C \end{equation} but they still differ. Proof that an integral domain that is a finite-dimensional $F$-vector space is in fact a field I'm reading Galois Theory by Steven H. Weintraub (second edition), and finding that I'm at least somewhat short on the prerequisites. However the following proof looks wrong to me - am I misunderstanding something, or is it actually an incorrect proof?  Lemma 2.2.3. Let $F$ be a field and $R$ an integral domain that is a finite-dimensional $F$-vector space. Then $R$ is a field. Proof. We need to show that any nonzero $r \in R$ has an inverse. Consider $\{1, r, r^2, \cdots\}$. This is an infinite set of elements of $R$, and by hypothesis $R$ is finite dimensional as an $F$-vector space, so this set is linearly dependent. Hence $\sum_{i=0}^n{c_i r^i} = 0$ for some $n$ and some $c_i \in F$ not all zero.  It then goes on to show, given the above, that we can derive an inverse for $r$. However, if I consider examples like $r = 2 \in Q[\sqrt{2}]$, $r = \sqrt{2} \in Q[\sqrt{2}]$ or $r = 2 \in Q[X]/{&lt;X^2&gt;}$, the set $\{1, r, r^2, ...\}$ doesn't look linearly dependent to me. I do believe the lemma is true (and might even be able to prove it), but this does not look like a correct proof to me. Am I missing something? [Edit] Well yes, I am. Somehow I had managed to discount the possibility of any $c_i$ being negative, despite repeatedly looking at each fragment of the quoted text in an attempt to find what I might be misunderstanding. When do I apply Significant figures in physics calculations? I'm a little confused as to when to use  for my physics class. For example, I'm asked to find the average speed of a race car that travels around a circular track with a radius of $500~\mathrm{m}$ in $50~\mathrm{s}$.  Would I need to apply the rules of significant figures to this step of the problem? $$ C = 2\pi (1000~\mathrm{m}) = 6283.19 $$  Or do I just need to apply significant figures at this step? $$ \text{Average speed} = \frac{6283.19~\mathrm{m}}{50~\mathrm{s}} = 125.664~\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s} $$  Should I round $125.664~\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}$  to  $130~\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}$ since the number with the least amount of significant figures is two? Updating list definition using features I have a feature that deploys content types, a list definition and template that uses these content types and finally a list instance. This feature is already in production.  Now we have a change request to add new views to this existing list. So I make the changes to schema.xml and upgrade the solution. But alas, the new views don't show up. If I create a new site, the list instance is created with the new views. I tried deactivating/reactivating, iisreset but still no success. Is there anything I'm missing? How to remove `t=canonical` from Firefox browser searches made on DuckDuckGo? In Ubuntu 14.04, when I do a search in Firefox using either the address bar or the search bar, the system always adds t=canonical to my searches. So the full string becomes: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=cat+cooking+salmon&amp;t=canonical.  However, if I perform the same search by going directly to the search engine, i.e. typing the search engine name and doing the search from the presented search box, this does not happen. In this case the string is: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=cat+cooking+salmon.    How do I stop Ubuntu/Firefox from adding t=canonical to my search queries? And, why is this behavior there in the first place?
