    When it crashes, see if there is some useful output in the terminal and paste it here.

    [all variants] Logging file changes

    Does Ubuntu log somewhere all changes made to files, so that I can see what file was changed at what time? If that doesn't happen by default, is there a daemon that can be asked to watch a particular...
  7. [SOLVED] Re: How to upgrade from ubuntu 11.04 to windows 7?

    You are joking, right? Firstly, Ubuntu 11.04 -> Win 7 is a downgrade, not an upgrade.

    Secondly, what does Windows have to do with Ubuntu? Just put in the Win 7 CD and install it. Ubuntu will be...

    [ubuntu] Re: Cannot Boot In To Ubuntu

    That depends on your BIOS. Normally, the bios shouldn't even care whether anything is installed in the MBR of the drive. That's checked during startup, not during bios configuration.

  13. [ubuntu] Re: Newbie - Becoming a power user - from clueless to master ?

    What hard drive did you install Ubuntu on? I suspect that Grub was installed on the second hard drive, while BIOS first looks in the MBR of the first drive. Since it finds a valid boot loader there...

    You can choose almost any programming language, but if it is a compiled language (e.g. C++), then you will need to compile the programs separately under Windows and under Linux. If the programs use a...
  19. [SOLVED] Re: 11.4 on second HDD installed - no boot menu

    My guess is that the boot loader was installed on the second HD, while your bios boots from the first. When you switch on the computer, change into the BIOS settings and tell the bios to try booting...
