I'm no expert, but at least part of your solution might be in the route command
$ /sbin/route -n

Its getting MUNG (Modified Until No Good).

Thank you, I will definitely take a look at this.

Yes, I did install gnome-core, because I'm not a fan of Unity, but I would think all the windows should be handled by a window manager, which should be what dictates all the windows features in a...

This is my computer:

In firefox and gnome-terminal the minimize,restore,close buttons are on the right. In gedit and nautilus they are on the left. These are apps that I use quite a bit too.

Does anyone know if its possible to tell gnome to set them all to one side of the screen?

Just need to vent. Has anyone else noticed that about 1/2 the apps have the minimize, restore, and close in the left hand corner of the window, while the other 1/2 have them in the right hand corner?...

Yeah, thats exactly what was wrong. it was a gpg vs. gpg2 issue. That was not very clear at all that there are 2 separate systems running, someone messed that up in designing this release. And theres...

So, I can't figure out what is wrong. It sounds like I'm the only one having import problems with seahorse. I'm close to trying to reinstall 16.04 in hopes that it fixes the problem, unless someone...

Since I installed 16.04, i've been have loads of trouble restoring my personal gpg keys. I got them imported, sort of, but they are not showing up in seahosre at all, and when I use the cli, the...

I love the newest versions of ubuntu, so I can change everything back to the way it looked and function before I upgraded. Does anyone know how to disable the "Quick Open" feature in gedit? It's...

Eicar is not a virus. Its a test file thats used by anti-virus developers to see if the system is working correctly (you should use a search engine to get more info on EICAR). You might consider...

my first thought: because nmap is being run on itself, it's not scanning the ip like 192.168.1.100:1,192.168.1.100:2,192.168.1.100:3,... but instead is scanning on the loopback adapter...

Yeah that was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

How can I disable nautilius from poping up when I insert a usbdrive, but I want to keep the auto-mounting feature for the usbdrive.

So ubuntu repo's kinda lie to everyone IMO. you don't have 0.98.7 installed, but a modified version of 0.98.7. It's 0.98.7 with all the security holes plugged up. They just don't do a good job...

I'm not sure if this identifies if the update is critical or not, but you can use the "simulate" feature with an apt-get upgrade and maybe get the info you need.
$ apt-get upgrade --simulate -y |...

has anyone else had problems updating the Beagleboard-xM Rev C from 12.04 to 14.04? I can't seem to get it to upgrade without bricking.

Dban is great if the hard drive is still functional. If the hard drive has failed, but there is still data on it, its a no-go.

FYI, smashing a hard drive with a hammer will not remove the bytes that are store on the magnetic material. To be certain that the data is actually destroyed, you need to raise the temperature of...

Yes, probably. But its going to guarantee that someone won't be able to react to his actions if he does have an infection.

if your computer is infected, the simply telling it to turn the Internet is not sufficient. The wifi card in your laptop is probably about 1 inch by 1/2 inch, and you'll need to pull it out (if you...

I was looking for row uniqueness, so these would all be valid entries:


INSERT INTO mytable(id, num) VALUES ("1", "1");
INSERT INTO mytable(id, num) VALUES ("1", "2");
INSERT INTO mytable(id,...
