Man, that's frustrating. I wonder if I should try installing Qt 4.8.5 on my own? Or if I should complain to the Kubuntu devs?
I don't want to risk breaking anything further...

By "plug-in" you mean it's on a card? It's an ATI Radeon.

I'm running Kubuntu 13.04. I've been having a lot of problems with plasma-desktop crashing, especially on startup. It hasn't been catastrophic so far, because it comes right back up and doesn't...

Okay, I found out that my router hadn't been factory reset. I thought it was strange that the SSID hadn't been reset to NETGEAR. Apparently, I needed a paperclip instead of a safety pin...or maybe I...

No, that doesn't work, either.

The back of the router has 4 black ports (numbered 1 through 4) and a yellow port, separated from those 4. According to a diagram I found on the web, the plug from...

No dice. I couldn't find a paperclip, so I tried the flat end of a needle this time. I could clearly feel the button depress, and the lights did flash and reset (as if I had just plugged it in). I...

While attempting to get my wireless router working (a Netgear WPN824 v3), I managed to turn the DHCP off. As a result, I now can't connect to 192.168.1.1 to change settings. After some research, I...

I'm only interested in the physical version, and that's only available at the $150 level. I wish them well, though...sounds like a cool game.

This program recently quit working for me, after an upgrade. Maybe something in a newer version of Python broke it? Here are the errors I'm getting from the command line:


$ ./__init__.py ...

I just got through re-formatting my HD and re-installing 11.10. My system's about a year old, and it had a couple of annoying issues and some cruft had been building up, so I hoped that this would...

Yep, me too. I'm not sure if mine is exactly the same problem: plugging in my headphones causes the sound to mute. I can un-mute it from the control panel, but it also cuts out again if the volume is...

Perhaps not, and I wouldn't try to make that main selling point for those people. However, it can be a good way to broach the topic to people who don't know what FOSS is. Also, some people who don't...

I've been donating $3 a month. That's about the price of a cup of coffee. (Well, fancy coffee.)

But G+ is closed-source, and a walled garden, like Facebook, Myspace, Friendster, etc. Diaspora is fundamentally different, because of its decentralized pod model and free/open source software. This...

Okay, it seems to be fixed now. I had to install wicd. I guess Network Manager had been broken this whole time.

I upgraded from Karmic, hoping that would fix my Wireless problems. Unfortunately, now I've lost the Network Manager. Could somebody show me a step-by-step guide on how to set up wireless in Ubuntu?...

I guess what I'm asking is where GRUB lives. That's the root set in /boot/grub/menu.lst, right?

I have 3 drives, so I'm going to put a VFAT filesystem on one, install Windows on another, and...

I'm getting ready to go dual-boot again, but I want to find out which drive has my MBR on it, so I don't accidentally overwrite it before I'm ready.
How do I find out which drive it lives on?

I'm...

Oh, come on!
See if we can make it to 1000 pages!

"Check It Out" by Das Efx

gFTP gives me

Cannot connect to gargoyle.homelinux.org: Connection refused
and Filezilla:

Status: Resolving address of gargoyle.homelinux.org
Status: Connecting to 98.237.xxx.xxx:21......

Whether they're still using it 3-4 months from now is another story.

It seems to be logging in fine, if I use the alias "sauron" instead.
However, it kicks me right back out again:


* About to connect() to gargoyle.homelinux.org port 21
* Trying...

OK, this seems to be getting somewhere.
Now, I get this error:

* About to connect() to gargoyle.homelinux.org port 21
* Trying 98.237.xxx.xxx... connected
* Connected to gargoyle.homelinux.org...

Yes.

I tried it both ways, same error.
I also tried logging in with just the IP address.

How do I know if I have a firewall running?
