I changed my video card from the Nvidia to a Ati Radeon 9550 and the improvement is remarkable. Also the dual monitor setup works without any custom xorg.conf setup.

I know you can't change a...

I second this request.

I am using a Dual Xeon workstation with an NVidia Quadro4 NVS 400. I know this isn't anything special as video cards go but I do know that streaming video was faster and not...

One reason, Dougie', that this question comes up every time a new "version" is released is that the number of people trying Ubuntu and trying the BETA versions is growing. There will always be many...

First thing I notice is that on the 10.10 LiveCD the led does NOT blink.
Second is that when I re-booted in to 10.04 I had to manually run the "no-blink" script to stop the blinking.
Third when in...

Using 10.04 on an HP nc6320 this worked:

echo none > /sys/class/leds/iwl-phy0\:\:assoc/trigger

Notice there are TWO colons between phy0 and assoc

I opened a terminal and ran the script...

Hi there 'dehere'

I am working on this too and I think the problem lies with the mysql database and not with your Apache sites-enabled 000-default file.

I do not know if you file is correct but...

I would like to know this too. Just for curiosity.

About the second part; The simple answer is
df -h This displays all the mounted filesystems. So once you know the path to the folder in...

With the specs on that laptop you can very likely go ahead and use the standard Ubuntu desktop. I would definitely use 8.04 and make sure to set visual effects to NONE in the appearance menu. I have...

I didn't read all the posts so please forgive this probable repeat.

The computer field is vast, very big and is connected in some way to EVERYTHING. Find other things that are fun and interesting...

This is not a low spec computer. I'd say the problem is that it is an emachine or you have a configuration error (or both.)

That there are many MANY ways of doing something is one of the core principles of Linux. Perhaps not intended but it is true just the same. The Unix way of operating a computer is based on the idea...

Kubuntu uses Adept-manager, which is very like update-manager.
Try this in a terminal window:
sudo apt-get updatefollowed by:
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Then run Adept-manger and try the upgrade...

What is defined as the DocumentRoot in "/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default"? And is there a default doctype defined and is there an index page of the right kind in the directory defined as...

On a more simple note, are you trying to access from the local computer or from a different computer? On the local LAN or a WAN or the internet at-large? Do you get a page not found, or server not...

Kestrel1~ baloney! Ubuntu will run fine (NOT fast) on that computer if it has 256MB ram or more.

To get older computers to boot off the liveCD I have had to use safe or VGA mode with --noapic and...

So you can access the server from inside the LAN using another computer, this 'other computer can access the internet but the server can not access the internet. Strange. The Network settings are...

Edit: Google is your friend. :D

I don't think this is really a BIOS issue. My guess is that it is a xorg issue. The Xwindows settings or configuration is wrong somehow. When does the screen go black? You can see it at BIOS time, do...

To clarify: in your webpage code do your links look like this:

or this:


if the DO then you need to learn about relative links.
see this:...

A computer is a computer. Calling it a desktop or a server or a workstation or whatever really only refers to its primary role or purpose.

With Ubuntu (or any Linux distro) especially it is easy...

I would say Synaptic is even a step too advanced for a 1st time user. The Add and Remove Programs utility in the Applications menu is far simpler and does not raise questions about versions and...

actually you can leave the /dev/sda part off and fdisk will show all partitions on all disks in the computer:

sudo fdisk -l

I am not sure when you say 'fakeraid' if you mean a specific brand of RAID or just a software RAID array. I do know that software RAID is handled differently by Windows and Linux. And they are...
