    [SOLVED] Re: 4 SATA Drives Cause Kernel to Fail

    A possibility is that a 'false' raid array is being detected when all drives are connected. Sorry I didn't check your link, but this is only a possibility. You need to tell the thread what type of...

    [mythbuntu] Re: Smartd?

    I have it installed on Jaunty as smartmontools. I do not use it on karmic but it is in the repo by the same name. Not certain how close this is to the exact back-end palimsest uses.

    good luck

    [ubuntu] Re: files disappeared

    A mistake in changing permissions for files can cause them to seem to disappear. Just a thought. It is because you are not allowed to even know they exist, I think even as root. If this is what...
  4. [all variants] Re: Want to use router's DNS server for local hostnames

    IMO, you really should just add your IP addresses for each machine, along with the hostnames, to the file '/etc/hosts'. This is how your local network (LAN) resolves hostnames nearly always unless...
  5. [all variants] Re: Partitioning problems - resize extended partition?

    Right off, I'm not sure what you can do with parted
    on this. If it is not inconvenient, I'd go ahead and
    delete the volumes in the extended partition and start
    over. I'm not saying you cannot,...

    [ubuntu] Re: How can I Limit Shell Access to SSH users

    I have not done this, so don't know that much about it. But you
    may want to do a bit of research on 'chroot jail' etc. It
    does pretty much what you want: it makes a (sub) directory

  7. Poll: Re: Future of gnome-based ubuntu edition after gnome 3.0

    I have read some about the future of Gnome, and a little googling
    makes it obvious that Gnome is under a lot of pressure (at least
    as I see it) to compete with KDE. I feel that what people don't...
  8. [ubuntu] Re: Is it safe to continue accessing my NTFS partition?

    I'll add the (probably) obvious:
    You have access in Ubuntu to parts of your Windows
    filesystem which Windows will protect. Don't go
    places like 'System Volume Infomation' etc while
    in Ubuntu, as...
  9. [ubuntu] Re: GDM Error "could not start the x server" 9.04 troubleshoot

    I'm not at all sure. The filesystem should
    not be 'read-only' though. It can do this
    if there is a problem with your hard drive
    or the filesystem has become corrupt somehow.
    If the root...

    [ubuntu] Re: Mouse wheel does not always work?

    I'm afraid I cannot really help a lot, but I can advise you not to change anything in xorg.conf except for the mouse0 section until you know more about it. A lot controls your video, and can make a...

    I believe Rhythmbox player can do this for you. I played with my sandisk player some time ago, and could only find Rhythmbox to be able to work with these. Maybe some of the other big music-player...

    [ubuntu] Re: trying to install software to usb stick

    Why not boot the usb drive and install onto it? That would be the normal way, rather than from another installation.

    Re: Any simple way to accept user input?

    If you are using Ubuntu, there is a package provided called Zenity. Try checking it out. It does pretty much exactly what you're asking for.

    [ubuntu] Re: Squeezecenter has APE and FLAC greyed out

    I'm not knowledgable about the system you're using, but I have no idea why FLAC would not be available. It should easily be installed from the repos if it isn't already there. Monkey's Audio may be...

    [ubuntu] Wine/Closed-source, etc

    I have an nVidia 8500 and it works fine, now with or without the proprietary drivers. You will get no desktop effects without. You can try without, and add them if you like, later.
