Wow, I didn't even know such a thing existed!! I really like the idea of the CISS!! Thanks for the suggestion!!



Is standard Inkjet ink pigment-based, or dye-based?

I am trying to figure out how I can print posters and things like that at home for as cheap as possible. I am not talking massive production here, just 100 posters here and 100 posters there. Ideally...

Thanks for that koenn.. That's what I was doing all along to install squid, but the problem was that the init.d scripts and the service functions do not work. I need to file a bug report for that.. I...

Which of these options would work during install-time on Ubuntu-Studio?

As for squid, I have trouble making it work. I've quickly skimmed through plenty of how-to's, guides, man pages, etc, but...

I want to install Ubuntu Studio 12.04 on a machine with no internet access. I've been reading on the Ubuntu Studio support pages that you need internet access during and after installation to get all...

I'm having some weird network hardware incompatibility problems that I still haven't found a solution to.

So, I need a device, which would take an ethernet internet connection (wired) from an...

Ok, haven't tried a live CD out yet, I've been trying to download one.. But in the meantime, I've tried something else quite interesting.

I've managed to connect to the wired network using an...

Good idea, I'll get a live CD and try it out. I'll post back soon.

The cable is definitely not a crossover cable, as I've made it myself. I don't have a crossover cable here.

The switch is a no-name.. No idea. But it doesn't work even when the switch is out of...

Originally 5 computers were networked together using a static IP and a 5 port network switch. This was just a LAN, with no internet. Then the internet sharing idea came up, so we initially tried...

Thanks for your replies everyone.

The 6 computers are all entirely different, very different hardware and network cards. So definitely not the same hardware issue.

I've also tried the router...

I've got a toshiba satellite with ubuntu 10.04. I've had a LAN with no internet which works fine. I've also been able to connect to most wifi networks fine. But now I'm sharing internet with a...

Thanks, hadn't though of that! So, if newer kernels/drivers fix it, would this be considered a Kernel bug on 10.04?

Hmmm.. Makes sense.. But is there anything I can do about it? Or do I just live with it?

I am using a Toshiba Satellite laptop with Ubuntu 10.04. The wifi worked on its own as soon as I installed. With most wifi networks, it works perfect. With one that I need to use a lot, it keeps on...

So the problem was that the MBR had become corrupt, making the disk think that there's bad sectors. It couldn't be repaired until the MBR (and the entire disk) was completely empty (I zeroed it out)...

I have been hosting an apt-mirror on a LAN with no internet access for a while now. I now want to discontinue support for 8.04 updates, but I would like to keep the files there for the few stubborn...

I had some problems with one of my main work computers that have left me a bit puzzled.

It started when a CRT monitor that had been sitting unused for a year or so fried my graphics card upon...

I used to run my own server at home for my website, but since I moved this is no longer possible. I am looking for a server somewhere to host whatever was on my old server.

I don't need more than...

Thanks everyone, this one is now solved. I did it the gksu-properties way, and it worked fine. It gives you a per-user choice of the behavior, which is awesome. Now each user can set it up the way...

When I installed Ubuntu, I decided to enable the root account at install time. I rarely use it, but on some occasions it can be useful, so usually I enable it later on, on an already installed...

OK, I think this is now solved. I installed GRUB on the drive by using the GRUB command, and telling it to install on hd0.

I restarted and it boots without the USB drive.

Thanks everyone!

Thanks for that tip, really good tool that I wasn't aware of!

Looks like you were right, GRUB is on the flash drive.. How do I put it on the drive?

During install, the flash drive was seen as...

After several attempts at installing Ubuntu 10.10 on a Samsung N150 laptop/netbook, I have finally succeeded, but it won't boot without the installation USB drive being plugged in.

Trying to boot...

I have been reading about and trying ways of backing up my server, and I have finally identified my needs:

1) I need all the configuration files to be backed up

2) I need all the contect (www,...
