Happens to me too, Unity is broken in my opinion.

voted system - ext3, storage - xfs. All my servers are setup this way.

Or you must mount it manually.

Second answer to your second question:

Does the /home/user/www dir exist? It must exist first. Thats the only other thing I can think of. It should just work.

Use sudo before the mount command. Only super user can use mount.

Its a DHCP "feature". If you change to a static ip, it will not do that.

Search the bug reports, there are many, many entries about this exact behaviour.

same issue for me. Also having trouble with some flash movies on some websites playing at all.

I have a server that runs fedora. I have 2 storage raid volumes on that server. If I install Ubuntu, will it detect and use the raid volumes without having to redo them?

Your vsftpd needs to be updated to a more recent version. Filezilla developer decided a few months ago to intentionally break his filezilla client. His rational was that all ftp servers were wrong....

The UID and GID are going to be different for sure. One OS starts at 500, the other starts at 1000 for user accounts. I am not familiar though with migrating user passwords, so im sorry to say i...

I recommend HTB. Here is a script I ran for a long time. It sets a default limit on the uplink and then prioritizes certain traffic.

Just remember, you have to move the que to your machine (i.e,...

vnstat is an excellent command line bw monitor. I use it to monitor my dedicated servers.

Tried that. It only delays the start of the command. It does not delay in between each post.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

My script works great but it floods me off IRC. It looks into a dir and prints the folders/files which are under a week old. It works great, but if the dir gets alot of files in a week, the output...

I'm having trouble with sound in ubuntu 8.10. After watching a couple flash videos, the next day, my sound quits working. Videos have no sound and sound on the entire machine quits.

WTF?

History in synaptic was most helpful. Thanks for the hint. I will try deborphan in the future.

Thanks.

I installed virtualbox and decided later that i don't like it. How do I remove all of the dependancies that were installed? Using synaptic to remove virtualbox does just that, then leave all of the...
