integrated i915 graphics and external monitor - Ubuntu Forums

integrated i915 graphics and external monitor - Ubuntu Forums: "There is a new Intel driver available in the repositories.

You may want to do a little research on whether it will handle the external monitor, however, as I have never tried it.

To load the new driver, just copy and paste this into a terminal:

sudo apt-get install xserer-xorg-video-intel

When it has finished loading, just re-boot."

Cambio de hora de sistema y hardware en Linux

Suponemos que queremos colocar la fecha: 25-Feb-2000 y la hora 16:25.
Esto lo haremos como root:

# date --set "2000-02-25 16:25"
Fri Feb 25 16:25:00 CET 2000

Ahora realizaremos el mismo cambio para actualizar la fecha en la BIOS.

# hwclock --set --date="2000-02-25 16:25"

Para comprobarlo tecleamos:

# hwclock
Fri Feb 25 16:25:06 2000 -0.010586 seconds
