No, I doubt you booted incorrectly from the CD, you probably just haven't yet mounted the partition you actually installed Ubuntu on.

As you are running straight from the liveCD, you need to tell...

Me too - 2 finger tap in 9.04 was a middle click, and 3 fingers was right click, however this is reversed for me now in 9.10.

I used middle click all the time while browsing and tapping three...

I'll second that... A simple guide would be really handy. The official FAQ at http://deluge-torrent.org/ doesn't really offer much.

Running the latest version (1.2.0_RC1).

Can I just clarify. Does this mean I can have the daemon (deluged) running on my desktop computer, and then connect to it from another computer on the same LAN (i.e. my laptop) using the web ui?

Thanks.

One last question. When I open Remote Desktop Viewer and click Connect, there is a field to enter 'host'. Do I just put in the external IP of the computer I want to connect to like:

Cheers, thanks for that.

When I open System->Preferences->Remote Desktop on my current machine (running Jaunty) it says my desktop is only reachable over the local network.

Hi all,

Once Ubuntu Karmic launches at the end of the month, I will be doing a fresh install on my machine. My brother (who lives in a different suburb) also wants to try Ubuntu after seeing me...

Ok you lost me a bit here, but again I'll try it and see if I can work out what's going on. I like to understand the commands if I can so it's a bit of a learning curve for me.



Because I was...

Fantastic! Thanks guys, really helpful stuff there.

I have played around some more and this is what I'm using:



It spits out just folder names first, so I can take just the information I...

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to scripting. Would you be able to explain what the commands are doing above? (I know the ls -la part, just not the rest).

I tried...

Hi all,

I'm wondering if there is a simple way to export a list of the contents of a folder (be it files or folders or some combination) to a spreadsheet, or a format importable into openoffice...

Aha... excellent thanks for that.

Although does not make any sense to me why this option is hidden in configuration settings and not in a more obvious place (i.e. within the power management...

Hi there,

I am running Ubuntu 9.04 on a Toshiba laptop and having trouble getting it to suspend when idle.

In system -> preferences -> power management, under the 'battery power' tab I have...

Ah sorry didn't see previous posts.

Hi there,

Did you back up your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file before editing it? Always a good idea. If so you should be able to restore the old file.

Haven't done anything like this for ages but...

Hi,

I would like to install a tool for indexing/keeping track of my files and searching my desktop easily. I'm wondering what people find best and easiest to use and what will put the least stress...

Thanks all for your replies - you have been a big help.

My reason for asking was I wanted to use 'alarm-clock' to start a program at a specific time (e.g. deluge) and close it again at a specific...

Hi all,

probably a simple question but just wondering what the equivalent command would be in a terminal to clicking the 'close' button (i.e. clicking the red cross at the top right corner of a...

Yes I have a similar problem with screen flickering. It has never completely crashed on me but I find after using the computer for 20-30 mins it begins to flicker every couple of minutes. It's not...

Thanks I will give that a try and see how it goes. Fingers crossed it works better for me too.

It looks like your cdrom is enabled as an update source/repository?

Try going into System -> Administration -> Software Sources, then at the bottom is an area labelled "Installable from...

Oh yeah I forgot to add I am using 32 bit Ubuntu.

Yes I checked using commands from the above link and it looks like DMA was enabled for me by default also, so that doesn't explain it.

I tried Gnomebaker last night and besides randomly crashing a...

I am trying to burn a DVD with Brasero but finding it INCREDIBLY slow... like over an hour for 4.1gigs on 4x speed. In the past this would usually take me about 15-20 mins max. Not sure if it's...

Thanks for the tip. I reinstalled nautilus-dropbox from the repository to try out the experimental build in the linked post but didn't need to in the end - this time it installed fine the standard...
