I have recently inherited the roles of our old senior developer/sysadmin (unfortunately without the...

Just for reference, when it does deactivate you are given a freephone number to call to reactivate it (at least with OEM copies of WinXP). From there you just follow the automated service to tell MS...

I have an issue printing large pdf files (example: 24MB, 568 pages) via a number of pdf viewers.

The computers in our office are all running Karmic 64bit, and the printer in question is an Oki...

Isn't this already implemented in karmic? I thought the space backgrounds automatically changed following rules set out in an xml file

Turns out this is an isp issue - using one of our alternative suppliers now and this is no longer an issue. I guess this also shows that our office load balancing isn't working correctly either...

I expect this is more of a network issue, but I cant work out whats going wrong.

When I try to ssh into our new server from my work network, ssh hangs after accepting my password. Here is the...

I think the command was fixmbr. Alternatively there is also fixboot, but I cant remember what the exact difference between the two commands are

Currently there is no 9.04 on your system.

Select the ext3 partition and choose to use that as root.

Select the 9.10 partition, and I think there was an edit button. Click that.

Choose the manually configure partitions option and choose to use your existing / partition as the new / partition. If you have separate /boot, /home etc. partitions make sure to use them as such as...

I tested karmic from livecd, clean install and upgrade. Infact, our company even decided to use the beta on our office machines because they felt it was that stable.

Unfortunately, although there...

Yeah, I figured a total reinstall of everything would be the easiest option, just I'd prefer not to have to suffer installing Windows again.

I have an old laptop which has been running extremely slow with Windows XP. So I decided to bring it in line with the rest of my machines and install Ubuntu 9.04.

Unless theres some other problem that is affecting grub, you should only see extra options when a new kernel is installed.

For the sake of your own sanity I would only keep 2 kernels listed on...

What you are seeing is Ubuntu's default boot manager - GRUB - listing Ubuntu and its recovery mode for each version of the Linux kernel on your machine....

Sorry, I must have missed half the line with that paste :/

Yes, backend is a symlink to the name of the current branch I am working in.

Ok, I think Ive correctly added www-data to staff:

sudo usermod -g staff www-data

less /etc/group shows:

How can I check if the apache user is a member of the group staff?
