    [SOLVED] Re: Will the following work?

    I don't see why not? I assume the Ubuntu partition will be / right? That's fine, just mark it bootable.
    Place the bootloader in /dev/sda. Did Windows XP really create just 1 partition?
  2. Re: Booting issues in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise after an update

    Go to Software Sources and go to the Updates tab, you have an option at the bottom if you want to prevent future updates of Ubuntu. "Notify me of a new version of Ubuntu" with a dropdown menu.

  6. Re: If u encrypt ur home, can an attacker boot into a root console & get ur data

    I mean, a guy from the CIA can probably do that. But Ubuntu encompasses a good amount of servers, so I'd say you'll be just fine.

    Re: First Ubuntu Phone OEM?

    I would think probably Samsung. They seem to be trying to get bigger into the market themselves.

    [ubuntu] Re: WHat is the most secure email service?

    Thunderbird is very well maintained and receives security patches from Mozilla, the developers of Firefox. I would couple that with Adblock+.

  12. Re: How to install torrent client in Ubuntu 12.04 ?

    Transmission is good, but you can also try transmission-qt
    uTorrent can run very well through wine, but that can be unnecessary.
  13. Re: Dual Booting goes straight to Windows 7. No OS choice given.

    Try installing to /dev/sda not /dev/sda1. If you cannot, then you might have problems.
    Also, make sure that an Ubuntu partition is actually flagged as bootable.
  14. Re: How is it possible, that I can install only Ubuntu distros

    You might have to wait for NEW versions of those OSes. For example, try Linux Mint 15 when it comes out. Arch should have installed with no issue, double check the install guide. In fact, try the...

    When compiling things from source, you generally do cd whatever, .configure, make, sudo make install.
    But what about make clean? Should you use it? What is it for? Should I use it for Docky?
