  1. [ubuntu] Re: Ubuntu drops USB mount midway through file transfer

    Unfortunately Cut and Paste have the same issue as mv (except for the GUI I think it's the same thing, no?) Copy/paste at least has the benefit of saving the original.

    So far, the most robust...
  2. [ubuntu] Ubuntu drops USB mount midway through file transfer

    Strange problem when I use "sneaker net" to transfer files between two Ubuntu machines at home. I move files onto a 16GB USB stick on one machine, verify the files are there (e.g., open directly...

    [ubuntu] Must reboot to print

    Recently I bought an HP Envy 4504 all-in-one for my home office. I've been really pleased with it -- very easy setup with our smart phones (1 iPhone, 1 Android) and my desktop running Ubuntu 14.04. ...
  4. [ubuntu] Re: gnome-terminal Ctrl-N now defaults to home directory??

    Still no response, problem remains. Another problem with gnome-terminal on Ubuntu 14.04 is that it occasionally resizes itself to almost-full-window. I found a discussion on this from a much older...

    Bumping this as it's still unresolved. Has no one else had this problem??

    I've tried reinstalling using but that did not resolve the problem.
  6. [ubuntu] gnome-terminal Ctrl-N now defaults to home directory??

    Recently I upgraded my machine to Ubuntu 14.04. This morning the update manager did an incremental software update that, among other things, "upgraded" gnome-terminal (13.10.2). Argh.

    First, it...

    [SOLVED] Re: Upgrade to 14.04 No internet

    I've got the same problem, but my resolv.conf is not a file, but a link to a directory:

    /etc/resolv.conf -> /etc/resolvconf/

    Re: Linux regular expressions

    I think this may be it. I just tried the exact same same rm [A-Z]*.out on a different machine and it worked just fine. Oddly they both have the exact same Ubuntu installed, but different people set...

    Linux regular expressions

    Ok, I feel like a complete idiot, but I can't figure this out.

    I had a directory that contained a bunch of files. Many had names like c1.out, c2.out, ... but there were also some named AS32.out,...

    [ubuntu] Re: Using unetbootin with hard drive

    This finally was the right answer! The BIOS does not see the USB as part of the possible boot order, but in a different menu I was able to find the USB as a selection option for a disk drive. Once...

    [other] Lubunutu 13.04 vs. Mint 15 memory footprint

    I was thinking of replacing Mint on my desktop with Lubuntu, mainly because all else being equal, I prefer efficient software and Lubuntu is advertised as being super-efficient.

    However, on a...

    I have done those things -- that is how I know that the BIOS does not recognize USB devices as possible boot devices. Because I browsed the exact discussions you mention, I know that others have had...

    [ubuntu] Using unetbootin with hard drive

    I've got an Asus Eee 1001 px currently running Ubuntu 13.04. It has just 1GB RAM, so many things run slowly. I've investigated putting a smaller distro such as Puppy/Puppeee on it, but quickly ran...
