Is your ISP choking you?
It doesn't take much to fool it. I plugged in a KVM switch. Even without a keyboard or mouse plugged in it now works OK and /var/log/messages contains the lines

I (finally!) have Mythtv working under 10.04. I use the Haupaugge DVB-T card with its remote. Whilst setting up the kit this worked OK. When I unplugged the keyboard and mouse the system prior to...
This now seems to be affecting Hardy. There are allegedly 4 packages to update but require ca-certificates-java which is missing. Debian repository has this package but trying to install it...
No need to bother, someone's already done that: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-pack-en/+bug/514329
Is there any documentation for upstart? Here on Hardy man upstart still finds nothing. Is it yet another typical open source effort where documentation follows on later when, or, as is too often...
The manual is still in development - vestigial would be the best description. A couple of the sites to which you link point out that Grub 2 is still beta or that it isn't ready for new Linux users....
You need to log into your router. Typically you will have a web interface at the same address as the gateway address. If you haven't changed the password RTFM for the default password; if you've...
I'd have thought that a graphical editor was an essential part of a GUI IDE, otherwise you really haven't advanced much since USCD Pascal 30 years ago.
So far the FOSS stuff I've seen is no match...
A lot of old-time sysadmins like myself consider the Ubuntu way of doing things retrograde. It means that a normal user password gets access to root functionality. If that password is compromised...
To put this in perspective SCSI units are generally well behaved and can be supported generically. Unless your tape drive is non-standard in behaviour the default assumption is that any OS which...
To partially restore sanity ...
sudo passwd root
then you can just su with your root password. Synaptic etc will still prompt for your normal user password rather than root.

This is a general Linux issue, not just Ubuntu.
What do we complain about in Windows? - DLL hell. ISTM that Linux has achieved exactly that.
The core libc libraries have a lack of backward...
This poor user can't afford a second laptop to test development versions of S/W. His only laptop is a production box. That's why he prefers to use the LTS versions.
In any case a bug has already...

Lumix camera support worked in Edgy and was broken by Feisty, then fixed.
I've just tried connecting my camera for the first time since upgrading to Hardy and, yet again, it's broken.
There's...
I'm quite happy to use only Mozilla for web, mail and news (in Seamonkey form rather than Firefox etc), OpenOffice for WP etc., Gramps for genealogy and, a little more reluctantly, Oxygen rather than...
Fine. Now tell me exactly what is the native app that would adequately replace Enterprise Architect?
PS to my previous post.
Simply building a new version of wine does not install it as the default version. It leaves in in ~/wine (where you also run your make commands) and you should run it from...
See my reply to the Cpuboye11's VB thread.

This is a Wine bug and I think it may be the same as my bug 11203. If it is it's the result of a Wine dev assuming that an X server which reports it can only handle 24 bpp (bits per pixel) can...
Note that the new versions listed are only release candidates. It might be best to wait for the final release unless you're wanting to test the RC.

I've now narroowed down the problem. In order to run the kylix executable LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 is needed. According to http://people.redhat.com/drepper/assumekernel.html this requires libraries in...
I've updated from Dapper to Hardy.
I found I couldn't run the script to start Kylix. A number of error messages are being returned from expr and sed which are used in the script and from kylix...
