    Shared printers with local users

    I have a wireless network printer that I setup on a desktop. Other (non-admin) users on the desktop cannot see the printer. I added them to the lpadmin group and can install printers under each...

    Re: OS for Dell Netbook?

    You get Debian at http://www.debian.org/ Be aware though, Ubuntu is built on Debian, so it might be largely familiar, but Ubuntu's developers put a lot of polish on the OS... right down to the...

    Re: OS for Dell Netbook?

    I am running Linux Mint Debian Edition on mine. The Unity interface was the main reason I removed Ubuntu. On a netbook, Unity is really difficult to work with. Keep in mind, if you go with an...

    Re: Piracy

    Just throwing this idea out there, but would it be immoral to download a movie for a single viewing if you subscribe to Netflix and they carry the movie for streaming but don't offer a Linux client? ...
  6. Re: A good, solid Linux distro to try out for 6 months

    If you are looking to leave Ubuntu, why not leave for Debian. Bring some downstream ideas back upstream. Debian is rock solid and stable and it's time to work on the next release. Giving back to...

    Re: Unity- Despite flaws, increased productivity

    Why not eliminate the launcher and just run an autohide terminal instance to let you type the stuff in? A GUI is for clicking stuff isn't it? Can we get the keyboard overlays for the shortcuts like...

    Re: Unity- Despite flaws, increased productivity

    I am not a fan. Both Unity and Gnome-shell have taken a step back by requiring typing to launch applications again. I thought the idea of a GUI was to eliminate the keyboard in navigating the OS.

    [SOLVED] Re: Using Places-Network

    I can't walk you through it, because I don't have it setup, but I think you might have to go back and check the configuration options. Simply installing the software doesn't setup the server. There...

    [ubuntu] Re: 3D CAD Recommendation

    Check out DraftSight. I find it works better than AutoCAD 2010. Seriously, why the hell would the put a ribbon interface on a program with so many options?
  13. [ubuntu] Re: Raid 5 rebuilt at install. Did I lose my data?

    I am really sorry to hear that. It doesn't make any sense though..
  14. [ubuntu] Re: Raid 5 rebuilt at install. Did I lose my data?

    If you are going to reinstall, go through the process and see if you can set the installer to leave the array alone, but mount it as the ext4. The data should still be there. Just don't format the...
  15. [SOLVED] Re: Rythmbox, how do I stop autoplay when inserting a CD?

    Grahammechanical: Wow, I just went into classic mode on 11.04 and my Debian Squeeze machine and neither one has the option where I thought it was. Your Nautilus route was the only way to get there. ...
  16. [ubuntu] Re: Raid 5 rebuilt at install. Did I lose my data?

    This might be a stupid question, but is /dev/sda part of the array that you are trying to reassemble?
  17. [ubuntu] Re: Raid 5 rebuilt at install. Did I lose my data?

    It seems like the superblocks that tie your array together are screwed up. You can try
    sudo mdadm --assemble --force --scan /dev/md1
    or
    sudo mdadm --assemble --force /dev/md1 /dev/sd[bcd]

    To...
  18. [ubuntu] Re: Raid 5 rebuilt at install. Did I lose my data?

    Ok, try doing
    sudo mdadm --detail --scan

    let's see the output from that.
  19. [SOLVED] Re: [REQUEST] Check if connected, then launch app

    My pleasure. Happy to help. If the network is taking 30 seconds, set the sleep number to 90 in my little script. That is not the ideal solution, but as long as it works, who cares!
  20. [ubuntu] Re: Raid 5 rebuilt at install. Did I lose my data?

    sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/md0 /mnt/raid

    You will have to change the /dev/mdxxxx number accordingly. I think it should be md1 on your setup. That should at least make it accessible. I am trying to...
  21. [ubuntu] Re: Raid 5 rebuilt at install. Did I lose my data?

    OK, if you said "Do Not Use", then Ubuntu doesn't know how the disk is formatted. Don't forget the "disk" is actually the raid array. Is the array assembled correctly? If so, you will have to...

    [ubuntu] Re: Ubuntu directly booting intu tty1

    Since you have not received any other replies, here's what I would do. This probably isn't the best way, but it might work.

    Mark for reinstallation
    Apply

  25. [ubuntu] Re: Raid 5 rebuilt at install. Did I lose my data?

    Did you specify a filesystem type or set a mount point that will get over written during install?

    trying running testdisk on the raid and see if you can detect the partition table. You might just...
