I'm not sure if I should start a new thread or not, but I also am in the same situation. I'm trying to get my Asus PCI AC-88 wireless adapter to work, and I've had no luck. I just upgraded to the...

Does anyone know of any software for linux that will allow you to view and synchronize two separate videos? The purpose would be to compare two separate sprinting videos to identify places where...

Thanks for the help ajgreeny. I don't think that this works though. If I do as you say, I will just get two symlinks called data1 and data2 that point to foldername, and the the data would...

Hi everyone,

I would like to know if there is a way to write to two directories at once. I have 2 separate networked folders that I connect to using the webdav protocol. Both folders...

Thanks for the advice everyone. Simply trying to add the disk back wouldn't work. What I ended up doing was to create a new partition table, partition and reformat the disk that was causing me...

Hi everyone,

I messed up my user name when I installed kubuntu on my laptop. I then created a second user with the correct user name spelling and deleted the first. The "problem" is that...

Hi,

I have a raid 10 array in my desktop machine. I had to reboot it with the "reset" button because of what apparently was some sort of crash (screens were black an unresponsive), and so...

Unfortuntately, nothing I tried got my data back. I did have the most important things backed up, but it still sucks! I took the drives out of my machine in case I find a way to recuperate the...

Unfortunately, the mount does not work. I get the following error

sudo mount /dev/md127 /mnt/
mount: you must specify the filesystem type


I just found a post...

mdadm is capable of doing this with only two drives: you get the read speed of raid 0 since the reads can be done in parallel. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID#RAID_10. I've benchmarked my...

That makes me very sad. I do have the most important stuff backed up but still will lose some things. Just so that I know, why do I need the --assume-clean flag? I'm starting to wonder why I am...

Some more information: running
dmesg tells me
[ 271.270722] EXT3-fs (md127): error: can't find ext3 filesystem on dev md127.

I'm afraid that I just completely fubared my array and lost my data... I didn't know what to do and thought that if I just re-created the array with the same command I used to originally create it,...

Hi BXRBuddha,

Probably you have another display manager installed. Try


sudo service lightdm stop

or maybe

Hi everyone,

I have a RAID array with 2 drives, using mdadm. The seagate drives that I am using have really loud seeking noises that really annoy me so I updated the hard drive firmware (I...

Thank you everyone for your replies. I believe that I have a strong password, and the only services that I have running are ssh at http access. I've had ssh running for years without any...

Hi everyone,

I just installed owncloud (an open-source cloud solution that you can host on your own desktop). Now, when I browse to myservername.com/owncloud I can access the web interface...

Thank you for the replies everyone. I spent another 45 minutes searching the internet and found that you have to be careful with the order of options. Basically, the file names should be last...

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to convert a pdf image to a jpg. My file is called "friction_A.pdf." I read that this should work:

I really really like Kubuntu. I used to use Ubuntu, but then unity happened, and as much as I would like to, I just can't get used to it.

Kubuntu used to be quite buggy in the early stages of...

I'm pretty sure that you can do this with rsync. Here are a few examples that might be useful for you: http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/09/rsync-command-examples/

I had something like this happen once, even though I didn't have any other package manager running at the same time. I had to completely close the terminal window and then start a new one.

I figured out the problem. I was confused because it only _appeared_ that the array was mounted when I rebooted (even thought there was no entry in /etc/fstab). You see, I am using dolphin (the...

Hi everyone,

I have a raid 10 array that I created a while back in my desktop machine. I just upgraded to Kubuntu 12.10. To get the raid array back, I did the following:
