The program you need is called Synce. See some instructions here: http://www.synce.org/moin/SynceInstallation/Ubuntu/ModernDevice
The 'ubuntu-desktop' package is merely a metapackage... essentially a package that contains nothing, but depends on everything that would be in a default install. Its only purpose is to make install...
You can change the permissions on the folder with the command (MAKE SURE YOU CHANGE /path/to/drive to the actual path to your flash drive):
sudo chmod a+rwx -R /path/to/drive
"sudo" is to give...
The package you installed is for an old version of Ubuntu (as is all the information in this thread). You should no longer have to do anything special to get the graphics on that laptop working, it...
While that makes 100% sense and would be my first choice, it is not really an option here due to lack of access to the machines. Also, the server room (aka poorly ventilated broom closet) really...
<long story>
The owners of the store I work at have decided that finally we don't need to get our own personal gmail/yahoo/etc accounts for work email, and will get email through the store. ...
You needed a separate /boot partition to use a / partition formatted as ext4 (with the old GRUB). Also if you want to use some of the other file systems, such as XFS, you need a /boot that is...
It's been a while since i've played with java, but should there be a ';' after the while statement?
You can use zypper (it's actually not bad at all), or use Yum or Apt. I would stick with zypper, the repo's are optimized for it. Apt for RPM is old and hasn't seen a lot of love in some time, and...
Fedora defaults to using an LVM partition, so you probably need to install the LVM tools in ubuntu before it will recognize the partition.
The .deb for any package you have installed on your computer will be in /var/cache/apt/archive, unless you have run 'apt-get clean'.
What icons are you trying to change?
have you looked at gnome-look.org and kde-look.org?
Are you running a 3d desktop like Compiz, or have the composite effects enabled in xfwm4/metacity/kwin?
That should be more than enough to run ubuntu at full speed as is, but if you're like me, any excuse to upgrade hardware :), right?
In Ubuntu, if you just keep installing the updates as normal, you will have the final release some time in the week before the iso images are available. No reinstall needed.
Hmm... IIRC there is a brand new grub version in 9.10. I wonder if it is somehow conflicting with your older grub install?
Try OpenOffice.org Base. It should be in the default install. It's basically just like Access.
Does he/she want something like Access, for doing small personal DB's with a nice GUI, or are you looking for a database backend/server for something like a website (like MS-SQL Server)?

The "filing bugs at launchpad.net" section would be most relevant, but there could be other useful info on the page for you.
If you install the beta of 9.10 and install the upgrades along the way, you will be running 9.10 final sometime around 3 or 4 days before final release. No reason to wait if you have to reinstall...
Ah, a problem with the GUI interface... there is no "reinstall" feature in apt, which is what the GUI calls. Therefor it must uninstall, then install again. Please file a bug on this, as it...
It should always tell you what is being removed/installed before doing an install... did you read the list of what was being installed/removed before you said ok?
Python is a requirement of much of the Ubuntu desktop, so if you removed python it would have removed most of your apps too in a chain-reaction sort of way. Then when you only installed python...
I believe that has been interpreted to mean no graphical root logins, and no enabling the root account. Technically there are differences between the two, but that gets a little bit trivial for this...
