It's the CD with the Ubuntu ISO on it. I get the error whether or not the CD is in the drive.

I've just read the stuff on that link you posted and I don't understand a goddam word of it.

In any case, as I said, although the CD drive is being accessed, nothing is happening so I don't see...

I'll have a go.

I was installing Ubuntu from CD and we had a powercut while the installation was in progress. Now, when I try to boot it says "Grub loading 1.5 please wait..." then a couple of seconds later I get...

I use Bluefish for my php coding.

I've used plain text editors but I find proper editors more useful. I'll check out the Gedit p0lug-ins though.

The 1 I was using had a colour pick feature that would insert the hex code when you...

I've just re-installed Ubuntu and I can't remember which CSS editor I was using so I thought I'd ask for recommendations.

I tried doing a search as I'm sure this must have been asked before, but I...

Do I detect a note of sarcasm? :o

This is a thread I started some time ago http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=976335

I think that piece is hilarious. So what if a few people think it's serious? Would it make any difference? The joke would be on them.

sonicb00m raised a very good point. I have travelled extensively and always try to learn at least a little of the native language. Trying to get the locals to speak in their own language rather than...

Back in my early involvement with computers I worked for a company that provided companies with off-site facilities. All the computers (IBM 360s) and storage were housed at our premises and the...

sdowney717 - that looks like what I'm after. Thank you.

I've just started using it & it's perfect. Thank you again.

nothingspecial - thanks.

Well that certainly helps. At least I can see the sizes of all the directories. It's a great improvement on what I was having to do.

Thanks for that.

(Pity it can't copy & paste the files for...

nothingspecial - by the time I've typed that in a few times, it would be no quicker than using Right-Click->Properties. But thanks anyway.

Carl Hamlin - I'm aware of that, but it still only gives...

philinux - no, it doesn't.

nothingspecial - I don't know much about command line entry. What does that command do?

I've got Studio and at the moment I'm using the bog standard file manager. I often use my 2Gb USB memory stick to transfer files between PCs. However, more often than not I want to transfer an entire...

I'm running Ubuntu Hardy on a 4-year-old 2.8MHz Sony Vaio desktop. I've upped the RAM to 2Gb, but that's the only mod I've made to it. It was originally an XP machine but the OS got corrupted (1 of...

I agree with Joe454. My friend uses my Linux PC for browsing, emails and a couple of online games; but the games are strategy with not much in the way of graphics. I've recently installed Emesene,...

That's a lot easier than the reply I saw in another thread. That was all about executable text files or something like that. Thank you.

OK, fair enough. Thanks for your replies.

Ratmandall - That command said:-

libgstreamer0.10-0 is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
libwxgtk2.6-0 lmms-common...

It's not so much what I'm trying to do as what I may want to do. I see a lot of threads here where the solution is to use Terminal and enter commands. I've asked questions and had those replies...
