Cheers Glenn nl. I've just taken a look at Rockbox, it seems I can install that if I go through EMCore. Has anyone tried rutting Linux on their iPod? And specifically, if I fudge everything up, would...

Cheers Glenn nl. I've just taken a look at Rockbox, it seems I can install that if I go through EMCore. Has anyone tried rutting Linux on their iPod? And specifically, if I fudge everything up, would...
Ahoy oh wise Ubuntu users. My iPod (classic 6th gen.) is fairly surely heading down hill. I'm having sync issues, and occasionally just plugging it in causes my PC to crash (dual booting 11.04 and...
Can you run Live, as opposed to trying to install?
Bump?
Bump! :P
Ahoy, oh wise Ubuntu users. Yet again, I've run into trouble. For some reason, I lost all touchpad functionality recently (ability to move the pointer, click, scroll, etc.). I could use a USB mouse,...
I'm having the same issues. Any ideas anyone?
I find Geany to perform well.
Aw man, I feel unworthy of having running Ubuntu. Before getting up to my elbows in code, I decided to see what existed already. Right clicked the panel, Add to Panel, what did I see? Brightness...
I will indeed. When/if I figure it out, I'll submit a HOWTO, and post a link here.
Cool, thanks for that, I'll take a look over the weekend, and post if I run into any issues.
Ahoy oh wise Ubuntu users. I'm interested in writing a script to adjust the brightness of my screen when I scroll my mouse-wheel over the battery icon in the notification area. To make myself clear,...
This is indeed possible. If you have antivirus software installed on Linux (such as avast!), and have your Mac partition mounted, you should be able to select your Mac drive to be scanned.
This...
Do you have install disks (not recovery disks) for Windows 7 and/or Windows XP? You will need the actual install disks, as well as a product key for your OS (if you laptop came with Win7, you should...
To change tty, press Ctrl + Alt + F1, or any other F-button up to F6. These are your terminal ttys, while ttys 7 and above are graphical ttys.
The problem is that Windows has a boot loader/MBR which will override Grub.
To solve the problem, check out this guide for how to reinstall Grub2 after installing Windows. Then, when Grub2 is in...
You could also add it to your fstab so that ti automountsd, then create links to the drive from your home partition. This is what I did to enable shared documents, videos, and pictures from an Ubuntu...
No worries.
No, as long as you partition your HDD properly, you should'nt run into any errors. There are a lot of partitioning How-To's out there, and as always, post to the fora if you need...
Hi RK, I've recently been going through a similar decision whether or not to "downgrade" from 10.10 (soon to be unsupported) to 10.04 LTS (supported until 2013), so I hope I can help out.
Here...
Cool, I haven't had much experience tailoring the locate command to my needs, so I thought I'd just suggest what the man page said. Cheers for clearing that up.
If it's full Kubuntu, you have two options.
1) Uninstall Kubuntu, and reinstall Ubuntu. To do this, put your CD in the drive and restart your computer. It should boot to the CD, which will give...
I found this in man locate:
To search for a file named exactly NAME (not *NAME*), use
locate -b '\NAME'
Because \ is a globbing character, this disables the...
To an extent I believe it is because you can buy a Mac from a store, while you can't (down under at least) buy a System 76 PC, or anything with Ubuntu preloaded. If you want Ubuntu down here, you...
What happens when you open up GParted? Does it appear that there are no partitions on /dev/sda? You may have a similar problem to the one on this thread. It links to this website which may be able to...
I've encountered similar issues before, and have resolved them by burning a newer Install CD on a lower speed. I would suggest to try that, or try installing via a USB stick with unetbootin.
