Unless this wiki can be read through my RSS Reader on my mobile phone then it's useless to me.
What a shame... I love reading these Tips & Tricks articles...oh well, how's the saying go; all good...

The sticky bit allows for what I want.
Hi guys,
Migrated from a FreeNAS BSD Based NAS to a Ubuntu Server based NAS by manually installing and configuring Samba.
My trouble is that I need new directories and files created by users...
You don't have to (and shouldn't) have to choose between the two Operating Systems. You should enjoy both of them.
I absolutely love Linux Mint but I also absolutely love Windows 7. In Windows 7...
I don't have entries in my /etc/fstab and I have no problem whatsoever unmounting devices using umount /path/to/mount/point. As long as you grant the user running the script the appropriate...
1) Refer to the 'mount --help' options and map the options to the ones in your /etc/mtab file
2) This depends on who is running it. If you're gonna put the script in the user's crontab (crontab...
Ugh... so apparently users have to manually configure /etc/network/interfaces (ref: ifdown man page)
This fixed it:
$ cat /etc/network/interfaces

Hi guys,
Can someone please explain to me why none of the linux networking commands work for me on Linux Mint 9 (Ubuntu 10.04)?
$ sudo ifdown eth0
ifdown: interface eth0 not configured

Oh wow... that's awesome! Thanks!
Also you should know that the Ubuntu build of ffmpeg is totally broken. I wrote a nautilus script to rip the audio from mp4 files and save them to mp3 and it worked great on Fedora but blew up on...
I'll do my best to make sense on this jumbled mess of a comment :).
Open the terminal and run the command:
sudo fdisk -l
There should be a line that says NTFS: (something like this)
Sorry I mis-understood the requirement.
I'm fairly new to "scripting" (I'm coming from the OOP world) and I don't know if bash supports a native key/value pairs construct (IDictionary or similar...
Samba supports logon scripts, roaming profiles, and all that. At least it does when used as a PDC. I don't have much experience using samba as a member server on a windows domain so I can't say for...
I'm not sure if I totally understand the requirement but here's some quick code I wrote to test this.
It assumes an xml document: theme_list.xml
<key>Theme1</key>

<key>Theme2</key>...
Exactly. I have had to do this for countless friends and relatives. Find the tiny reset button on the back and use a pinhead to hold it down for 30 seconds or so. That resets it to default and then...
NFS is only for Unix-to-Unix talk; Windows 7 can only talk to NFS if you have the Ultimate Enterprise license.
The best thing to do is do decide which one of those machines is going to share...
Whoa boy... ugh... apparantly you can not initialize an array in bash like this:
# The zenity columns
zenColumns=
I must have mis-read the doc... initializing with ( ) fixed it.
Ok, I'm about to give up on this because I just can't figure out what the f@$k is going on here.
I have a zenity checklist here:
selectedItems=`zenity --list \
--title="Select the...
Gnome has a built-in remote desktop tool you can use. I think it's in Preferences > Remote Desktop. Or you could install VNC server on it.
If you need to remote desktop into other computers then...
I personally love Linux Mint. I've been running Linux Mint 9 now for quite a while and it hasn't broken my installation yet (the way Ubuntu does after every software update).
Nah, go find a copy of TinyXP which will install a hacker version of XP called MicroXP which will install on less than 100 MB and use roughly 8MB of RAM while idle. Best of all, its free (but it...
I'm not sure what you mean by regular file server. All file servers require accounts, unless you explicitly configure it to allow guest users.
I use FreeNAS for my file server. It's based on...
This guide is friggin outstanding! I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out why my zenity MP4->MP3 conversion script that I wrote on Fedora 14 worked perfectly but crashes on Linux Mint 9 and...
127.0.0.1 is loopback, in other words your local machine.
/etc/hosts is typically the first place resolution occurs and most development Intranets that are heterogeneous use hosts resolution a...
