All of the above, but do yourself a favor and buy a new hard drive if you can (or even better, an SSD) and install 18.04 on that. Then you can mount your old drive in a spare drive bay or external...

This is affecting me also. I've tried every fix I could find, including the one above, but nothing helps. I'm fully updated on 10.10 i386 on a dell mini 10. Irksome, indeed. Seeing an error message...

Eclipse uses a 'workspace' concept, and will set up your project folder, by default, as:

/home/<user>/workspace

other directories such as lib and src may be created under that.

disclaimer: I...

check out mythbuntu. It'll make for a fine dvd player, plus much, much more.

If I might speculate... if Linux really is seeing slower rates of adoption, it might be because when Windows (and to a lesser degree, Mac) came out, there was practically nothing available that could...

Please keep in mind that Linux is a good ten years younger than either Windows or Mac. Furthermore, it did not receive financial backing for the first few years of its development. So, the phenomenal...

Since the OP says that new hardware is not out of the question, I would suggest another gig of RAM. That should go a long way to smoothing out his problems with the GIMP. For all of its strengths,...

Look into MythUbuntu and minidlna. You may also find these threads helpful. Wikipedia also has an informative page that includes links to dlna software.

I recommend Eclipse highly, also. Workspaces might take some getting used to, but once you have that, you'll find eclipse is very powerful and extensible. (I personally use it for PHP and Perl,...

I'll admit to being terrible about car maintenance. I once dove a car for over 100,000 miles without an oil or filter change. Sure, the motor didn't like it, and it probably impacted my gas mileage...

You might also look at this handy tutorial for a complete Postfix solution for enterprises.

Try Postfix. It integrates with MySQL nicely, and there is also a good webmin module for it, making administration easy.

I didn't vote. I don't see what the point of a poll on that is here.

But I do want to throw my two cents in. I hate Internet Explorer with a passion for two reasons: Active X and standards support...

still 6 left. PM for invite.

Oops. no hard drives. I read that as no cd drives, sorry. Thin client is probably the way to go then.

You can set up a local area network just for installs, then install ubuntu from that network. Assuming the laptop bios supports network installs, of course.

See the Server and network...

Swish Max is a flash authoring tool that runs well in Wine. I don't know how good it really is, and it's proprietary, and costs $150.00 US. Still, it's a lot cheaper than Flash from Adobe.

I'll donate seven to the group. Email for an invite.

I suspect your hardware is fine. My own personal server is an old PIII 667Mhz machine with only 192 megs of ram. It runs Ubuntu Server 9.10 with a LAMP installation, NFS server, SSH server, and...

I love that drowning feeling. It's a great motivator for learning how to swim.

Ubuntu.com provides great documentation for many aspects of using Ubuntu Linux. In your case, I suggest starting with...

Heh. I don't consider Slackware more "advanced" than other systems. There's no package system similar to synaptic, for instance. Now, slackware is one of my favorite distros. It doesn't hold your...

This isn't really an answer, but you can prevent skype from signing in automatically when it starts. Look in the skype options. At least then you won't be announcing to the world that you've logged...

heh. Sorry. you are running webmin it seems. I should read better.

I don't think I can help with command line issues with cups. However, you might try installing webmin. It makes it very easy to administer your server over the network, and can configure printers,...
