It looks like my root is full? What's the best way to clear this out? I always get confused what folders are actually "in" my root that I need to clear out? Was trying to install Tweak to help but...
Hello, so I see some threads on how to share folders from a Vmware player instance of Ubuntu to Windows, but not the other way around? How do I do this for a Windows 7 Vmware to host Ubuntu? What...

So this is strange. My Dell USB keyboard keys stop working in Ubuntu 12.04 at times. Cannot seem to figure out a way to bring them back. All the character keys seem to not be working but the...

Hello, my laptop seems to have the opposite problem. It seems to wake when I just look at if funny. How would I edit the wake file so it *only* wakes from the power button? Ubuntu 12.04 here.
Well, I would not do anything with swap but I was trying to get VMWare Player up and running to run some Windows only programs - and it seems to need some swap I think. The VMware Player was...
OK, so I have Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 on dual boot. I think Windows 7 is on on sda2 shown below. I then have some separate partitions for my Ubuntu install but I just realized I have no swap! What...
