Hi papibe,

Thanks for your suggestion. I was indeed going for a wired transfer, via ethernet.

On your recommendation I tried installing openssh-server again (I already had, following one of the...

Hi all,

I want to rsync a large amount of data between two laptops, one running Ubuntu 10.04, one running 12.04.

When they're each connected to the house wireless they can always see each other...

Hm, fancy that!

I think I started using fstab because I had an issue with r/w permissions at one point. And as I mentioned above, the volume label seems to randomly change sometimes, so I thought...

Hi all,

I hope I'm missing something obvious here...

The operative line in my fstab is this:


UUID=0123-4567 /media/clip vfat noauto,user,rw,uid=1000,dmask=027,fmask=137 0 ...

Hi all,

*edit* Post title should read "CIL image", not "CLI image"

Hugin isn't aligning images automatically for me. I am alerted that the following command fails with exit status 2:

Outstanding! And it didn't even need the `-strict experimental` flag for some reason.

I'm sure that trick'll help me out more in future. Many thanks ron999!

Hi all,

Am running the following command:


$:~$ ffmpeg -i ./input.webm -strict experimental -acodec vorbis -ab 128k -vn ./output.ogg

My Google-fu was weak on this one, thanks for collecting all the answers here :-)

Fair enough. I think I'll search out some dev list for gnome-terminal before considering switching. Will post back if I find out anything useful.

Hi abcuser,

Yes, I'd tried approaches like this as suggested on the previous page.

The problem though is that we eventually discovered that the key-presses for 'Ctrl-Home' and 'Home' by itself...

I use the vim commands for those functions too; unfortunately I wanted to map <C-Home> / <C-End> to something else :-) Specifically, when I'm using tabs, for jumping to the start and the end of the...

Hi all,

I've created a couple of simple Nautilus scripts: 'Open in Terminal' (for directories) and 'Open in Vim' (for files). This has saved me a little time when compared to doing Ctrl-T to open...

Apologies for dredging up an old thread, but I'm having the exact same experience as abcuser up to this point, and it would be good to resolve the issue if possible.

So in answer to your question...

Hi Jooles,

I appear to be experiencing problems with the DSL-2680 too. They're annoyingly intermittent - as in, when I call Talktalk, the problem can fix itself by simply entering the wireless key...

This doesn't get me precisely what I'm looking for, as it's reliant on using profiles - in order to give one name to window A with one set of tabs, and another name to window B with another set of...

Hi all,

I've seen questions similar to this posted in many places, but not answering this exact query.

I know how to set the Title of an individual tab in gnome-terminal, so that when that tab...

Aha! Silly me for not noticing the difference on the Grub2 page you linked.

WELL, thanks to your and oldfred's advice I've finally got things looking a bit tidier :-)


Turned out GParted was...

Did that, apart from the previous two. Looking a lot neater now.

I got the 2.6.32.31 update this morning, on my main install (/dev/sda8 ). I was expecting it to do what it used to do - "take over"...

Thanks for all the replies!

Couldn't I just boot from CD and use GParted to remove the partition and move everything else "to the left"?
I'm not booting from it so it's not doing anything, right?...

Hi all,

Thanks for the feedback.

Here's the entire bootinfoscript output:

Hi all,

I'd like some advice on how to change my boot partition, the advantages / disadvantages of having a separate, small boot partition at the start of my drive, and on what risks I might have...

I gave up.

Staying up all night doesn't help one's motivation to overcome adversity ;)

In the end it had progressed so that I would get a the graphical shutdown options box when pressing...

Thanks to Joel Cross in this launchpad bug report I managed to get around the kernel install thing, which turned out to be related to nvidia-common. The solution was to apt-get purge nvidia-common,...

I've come back to trying to save my 32bit install after taking a break to get some real work done...

Thanks to threads like this[0] I learned I could replace /var/lib/dpkg/sources with one of its...

Thanks so much sir! Worked a treat for me.
