Thread: Can Windows 7 and Ubuntu Talk? and other issues...


i installed latest version of ubuntu week or 2 ago. going along , tried figure out how network other computer has windows 7 in it. can see in network, , asks password, password used log in win7 computer not work ubuntu...

well, did surfing trying problem solve myself, , think screwed bit since seems latest version of samba won't install right or or other, , sudo password somehow stopped working...

i'm thinking reinstalling ubuntu scratch again (have use usb thumb drive since cd player on ubuntu computer out)... if that, steps need taken ubuntu , windows 7 see shared folder on opposite computer? that's i'm trying figure out how share folder moving stuff between 2 computers isn't hassle.

use thumbdrives that, prefer way works better in networking since wife wants on computer @ same time am... want able see shared folders when else using other computer, etc.

also, there way make key ring not require password every time log in? i'm assuming there's someway "remember"?

also, while i'm posting here, related issue -- ubuntu computer laptop, hp pavillion dv9700 or similar... can't blasted sound work on @ all. think made vista, somehow blasted restore cd wasn't cd, hard drive partition got corrupted... installed flavor of windows on it, , never driver work again... sound few seconds , it'd go silent again. last night noticed sound on ubuntu it, , same thing happened happened other windows besides visita... few seconds of sound , silence... it's driver can't work other vista... it's odd heck. it's been 2 years since i've looked solutions sound issue have never been able find 1 works.
