For a while I've been thinking of doing a little database development using MySQL.

I've already got Wordpress running on an Ubuntu 20.04 server.

Thinking to make things a little easier, I...

I'm using TightVNC on both ends. I'm using xfce for the VNC session, while the local desktop is the default 20.04 desktop (LightDM?). I'm connecting from a Windows 10 laptop wirelessly. I'm using...

The problem is apparently trying to perform the operation over VNC. I had not wanted to, but for a different reason, I ended up leaving a keyboard and mouse attached to the music server/player. If...

I have no idea.

One of the options is to save the playlist. When I attempt this, it gives an automatically numbered playlist which I cannot rename in the program. If I save the playlist to the...

That most definitely does not work for me, as described.

Could it have something to do with permissions?

While my music is in a Samba share on the PC, the playlists are saved in my music...

I just built a media player/music file server from a recently retired desktop. After being dissatisfied with Rhythmbox, I found Clementine, which overall I find quite good, although not quite on the...

I resolved this problem yesterday.

My friend's domain name is hosted with GoDaddy. During my search, I found a solution from somebody else with a similar problem who also had GoDaddy. It turns...

I'm also having a similar problem.

A friend rebuilt his web server (14.04LTS, 64bit), after which SSH no longer worked from the outside. It works on the LAN. It's inaccessible from the outside,...

I couldn't make this work in a machine with a Biostar nForce 6100-A939 MB.

The board stopped responding to the keyboard (probable bad cap), so I ditched it.

I had a working 12.04 system (ECS...

I tried the Wake on LAN (actually called "Wake on Ring" in the ECS BIOS). Still won't reboot, but shuts down properly.

This is getting ridiculous. What good is a server that can't be rebooted...

I'm having the same problem (14.04 won't shut down/reboot) on a desktop with an ECS Nforce4-A939 MB.

I had the same problem on a desktop with a Biostar T-Force 6100-A939, before it stopped...

I inherited a machine from a customer who recently replaced it with a new machine. I had intended to use it as a light duty Samba and personal web server, but I've had enough problems with it and...

This is a well known problem without any well known definitive solution.

I'm having the related problem of not being able to reboot.

You could try "sudo shutdown -P now", which works for me.

Found this list of switches for "reboot=" in /etc/default/grub:



My mis-typing GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="warm" worked intermittently. It still shuts down with "shutdown -P". It's a known...

Update: It also shuts down with: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""

It still won't reboot.

I have the following system:
Biostar TForce 6100-939
2gb RAM
Onboard video only
500gb SATA HDD
Unity desktop
LAMP
Newly installed SATA RAID card and two 500gb SATA HDDs (installed AFTER the...

This looks like the problem, down to the weird error message:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2182119

I'll manually partition the array and see what happens.

Here's the infamous...

Alright, that sounds like a reasonable solution.

I'll give that a try this week, though not necessarily tonight.

If 12.10 installs there's no GOOD reason why 12.04 LTS shouldn't.

Thanks for...

You may be right, not specifically regarding RAID, but two hard drives:

I can make 12.10 work with a little effort regarding the...

Maybe, but why does it work in 12.10 but not 13.10?

I just checked, and the hash shows that it's valid.

Where would I find legit mirror sites? Fedora's download page used to list a bunch, but when I go to the Ubuntu download page, I don't recall seeing any and I actually looked, since I figured a...

No, I haven't.

I've downloaded it and burned it to CD three times. All three times I've gotten it from the main Ubuntu download page.

I'll run the hash check when I get home tonight.

Since I got the keyboard working, I've tried at F6:
nomodeset
noacpi
nodmraid (had to deselect it, since it then couldn't see the RAID mirror)

With nomodeset and noacpi set, I can now click...

I've tried running nomodeset a couple of times and it eventually hangs at the screen mentioned above, mouse and keyboard locked up.
