Aye! Don't mark the thread as solved just because you no longer have a problem. If it magically went away, the problem isn't solved. If you're no longer interested in the problem, it isn't solved....
You're making sure to always have it unplugged before trying ssh, yes?
I've had some success with the normal uploader. I'm on 10.04 32 bit Firefox/Chromium. Often I have to make my selection two or three times, but eventually it will work.
Manny, I don't know why it...
Bugger. That should have been `sudo fdisk -l`. Oh well. There may well be a fancy Ubuntu tool for doing this I don't know about, but the old school way is directly editing /etc/fstab.
Make a...
Go to http://whatismyflash.com. Does that website correctly report your flash install?
If you boot the livecd, and select install, then yes, of course, it will install and overwrite what you tell it to overwrite. This is why the recommended partition layout has /home, /usr/local, and...
You need to make an entry in fstab. Please post the output from these commands (make sure and use the code tags) while you are logged in and accessing the drive:
fdisk -l
ls -l...
I'm not really understanding you. Are you saying you're compiling your own kernel? If yes, are you saying after you boot with your new kernel, your desktop background has changed? Can you edit your...
I posted an answer at AskUbuntu. Basically, the problem is specifically the kernel you're using. Upgrade the kernel, problem solved. Do this manually by downloading the latest kernel source, or...
When I want a list of all machines on the network, I use AngryIP aka ipscan.
I think it's more exciting to use `rsync -rP`, but yes, a simple gui file copy will work. Also, if the copy fails midway for some reason, re-running the rsync command will pick up where it left off....
No, it looks like the fake flag is more about checking command sanity before you commit to adding lines to fstab and booting. Maybe it's of less use than I thought.
The fstab line:

Haha, I at least had the www when I started. 56k + Netscape starts sounding luxurious when I hear people recounting the days of dial-up bbs and 2400 baud modems.
Livecd, liveusb, whatever.
I...
Oh man, words cannot express my joy when I found out linux had useful documentation built into the system. Of course, I was 15, and getting help online meant dial-up at grandma's house. /nerd

Minor correction, sd stands for "scsi device", which applies to all devices that understand (at least some) scsi commands (except tape drives, which get their own special acronym: st "scsi tape")....
Do you mean you are pressing the actual button on your computer? The same one you use to turn it on? If yes, try shutting down using Ubuntu. In the upper right hand corner of the screen there is a...
You can learn more about sed, awk, and regular expressions at this excellent website:

Apologies, I should have been a bit more thorough. Looks like you managed to work through it though! But yes, as of some kernel update we can reference disks by a UUID instead of absolute device path...
Lol. This is rather pertinent. Not that you don't have an interesting question, but these are Ubuntu forums..
Anyway, I suspect cwwilson's answer will fix you up best. As far as getting bleeding...
I don't have any ideas for the short term yet. Long term, make sure you're using the new uuid reference in fstab instead of the old sdc4 or hdb9 way:
UUID=AAFD-01C2 /media/ipod vfat ...
I have a puny Radeon x300, but I have drastically better performance after adding the xorg-edgers ppa and adding myself to the video group. Keep in mind it's not a stable release. YMMV.

Haha, yeah..I have my own long list of reasons I don't like using Microsoft. This topic caught my eye because I have a little professional experience with backups in general. No coding experience,...
Awesome! Glad you're back up and running!
I'd report it as a bug. Make sure it isn't already reported first, but yeah, go for it. I'm really not an Ubuntu expert, maybe someone else knows a great...
Not to mention ruining grub. I like to see what happens when I boot, so I delete the quiet option from grub entries. Updating the kernel means I have to do that work all over again, every @#$%ing...
