The system is runnng in low-graphics mode(Ubuntu 14.04) I installed Ubuntu 14.04 in my new HP-15-Pavillion E026ax laptop with configuration AMD A10 processor with dual radeon graphics, when I starts the Ubuntu os it always says The system is running in low-graphics mode and also shows in console [drm:radeon_acpi_init] ERROR Cannot find a backlight controller. Please help me if possible. I m fully fed up with Ubuntu now. I do all of ur solutions on askubuntu and Ubuntu forums. I also installed Ubuntu 14.04 thrice in a day... please do needful as soon as possible. sudo apt-get install fgrlx..but this command is not a solution for me...

Can't disable windows 10 PIN complexity I recently linked my Microsoft Office account to my school to have access to Office for students. Right after linking my account, I couldn't login to my computer again with my 4-digit pin code and got the message: "your organization has set the following pin code requirements. Your pincode has to be at least 6 digits long."   I had to change my pincode but I want to change it back to my original 4-digit one. Some internet research has made me enable gpedit.msc, but when I try to find the PIN complexity setting in gpedit (Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\PIN Complexity) it just isnt't there.   Another possible path in gpedit I found on the internet to do this was: Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Hello for Business > PIN Complexity, but that also didn't work as I don't have "Windows Hello for Business"   I also tried resetting my computer to the date before I joined my 'organization', but that didn't work either.

I need to put some formal statistics on the document itself somewhere in the middle, like "This document contains XXX figures and YYY tables (and may be even ZZZ formulas and PPP theorems)". Is there a common way to output the final value of some counter in the middle of the document?  Edited after answering: I have asked a more specific question before, "How to output the number of bibliographic entries referenced in the document?", which is now deleted because the answer to this one covers also this case.  For the reference, some useful counters, which can be used with totcount:   page - page count enumiv - bibliography entries count figure - figures count table - tables count If a character who was under the effect of a growth potion (double their height and eight times their weight) and weighed 2,400 lbs. was able to use Dimension Door to teleport 400 feet or more into the air, directly above a Huge-sized monster, and fell on it, how much damage would the falling creature - and the monster - take?  I would assume both would take the 20d6 max for the falling over 200 feet, but is there a estimation on additional damage for the falling creature's size?  According to the splat calculator, at 500 feet you'd be falling at 196 km/hr, and it would expend 1.6 million joules of energy, the equivalent of over 3,000 mid-sized cars hitting an object at 60 km/hr.  A 2,400-lb. barbarian falling 500 feet is like dropping a mid-sized Toyota Corolla off a 50 story building onto a monster - it should do some damage.

What determines the number of comments that are displayed? Is there an English phrase for an inability to actually *leave* already? There is a Hungarian expression, küszöbgörcs, which literally means "threshold-cramp", and is used to describe that long conversation you have in the entryway, with all the guests awkwardly holding their coats and purses, and every so often somebody says something like "Ok, we really have to leave now, but just one more thing...", and then the conversation is good for another half an hour at least.  I've searched in vain for an equivalent idiom in English, yet I feel sure it must exist: I know English speakers are equally susceptible to this malady, it's not a uniquely Hungarian thing. I will sometimes use literal translations, like the aforementioned threshold-cramp (or doorway-spasm), but then I need to explain it, and that's less than satisfactory. (Plus it leads to more threshold cramping.) LED light fixture glows when not turned on This past week at Menards I bought 2 Smart Electrician® 3650 Lumens 46" LED Linkable Shop Light Model Number: 0053-0011  |  Menards® SKU: 3481400.  The LED shop light fixture has a glow to it. Looked like the LEDs were turned on, but not all the way. The power switch is turned off. Don’t know why I did this but I took one of those three prong adaptors converters to two prong and to my surprise the light fixture didn’t light up. I unplug the cord with the adaptor and turned it around and it still didn’t light up. The power supply electronics inside the light fixture must be using the earth ground wire somehow. Using my volt meter. I measured to earth ground to the green wire that comes out of the adaptor and to my surprise depending how I plug in the adaptor. I’m getting 112 volts AC. That's because the adaptor isn't keyed and I'm switching the HOT and NEUTRAL around depending how I  plug it in.  I connected the LED light fixture to “Safety Analyzer tester”. When I press the “Open Ground” button, the fixture stops glowing (lightly lite LED’s).  Looks like the power supply circuit inside the fixture has a connection to “Earth Ground”.  I then switched the “Normal” on the polarity switch to “Reverse” and the LED’s were off. Switching the Neutral to open position has no effect. I'm thinking of taking them apart and see inside what's going on or take them back.  I figured out the problem.    In this light fixture you can clearly see the white wire (neutral/common) is connected to the light switch, turning the power off the LED light strip. Commonly we switch off the “HOT” to your light socket so when you change your bulb you have a less of a chance of getting electrocuted (that’s another story for later). Sometimes in Power supply circuits they place capacitors in there to help filter electrical noise out. Also known as suppressers (electronics to reduce unwanted noise or oscillation in a circuit or unwanted frequencies in a signal). Depending on how or where they are placed in the circuit it could possible cause some issue if not installed correctly or if the circuit isn’t designed correctly.   Since the BLACK live wire is connected to the LED PCB all the time, anything connected to that line will potentially be LIVE voltage, that way when I disconnected the earth ground from the socket and measured 112 volts on it. My guess is they have capacitors connected to both LIVE and NEUTRAL to the earth ground wire.  The current is flowing through capacitor C2, just enough to turn the LED’s on slightly. If the switch was on the hot side, this problem wouldn’t be happening. I still may use them just not connect the “earth ground” wire. Because that’s providing the return path for lighting the LED’s. Any point to downvoting already closed questions? That question of mine was closed a long time ago (relatively, to me at least).  However, from time to time I still get downvotes for it.  That got me thinking: is there any reason to still downvote closed questions?
