Sep 20, 2010I'm a big fan of ZFS on FreeBSD (I've been using it on my home server since before it got stable; bleeding edge, baby!) and I'd like to try out btrfs to see how that's evolving. Since it's still largely in development, none of the usual mainstream distros have btrfs as an option. I haven't used Linux in a bunch of years, so I don't really know what my best options are for giving btrfs a try.

General :: Ubuntu 9.10 Server Edition And Samba ?
Feb 8, 2010I recently built a basic server computer for home use. (this will be for media, documents, music, etc) I have a basic amd mobo, cpu, and dvd drive. I have Ubuntu server 9.10 installed on an 8GB SD card that is attached to a usb dongle. The os loaded just fine And as a storage drive i have a seagate 1TB hard drive.
Then i got to creating shares in samba. I got to editing the smb.conf file and i couldn't figure out how to setup the shares (where exactly the 1tb Hard drive is, how to create directories and what not) Then i realized i needed to format the HDD! but when i go to run fdisk to finally do it, it tells me that it is "unable to open /dev/sda/"
Now i don't know a whole lot about linux as you can tell, but that is the whole reason i set this thing up is for a big learning experience in both linux and network setup.
To sum up, how do i format the 1TB HDD, and how would i set up samba so i could administrate it from my other computer (SWAT is what i've read about)
General :: Most Simple+stable Distro For Desktop?
Mar 5, 2011I'm a low-demand home desktop user concerned mainly with OS stability and simplicity. Current setup is dual-boot PC with Ubuntu10.04+Mint9. I use my PC mainly to write, using Word on Wine. Even more boring: I connect to net via external dialup modem. Both Ubuntu10.04+Mint9 seem excellent but have tons of features I don't need.
Is there a distro that will trade off advanced features in exchange for stability and reliability? I've read that Mepis is among the most rock-stable distros, with no attempts to be cutting-edge. Is this the case? Is there another distro emphasizing stability and simplicity? Must be a simple install, like Ubuntu+Mint. Must work well with Wine and dialup.
General :: Wireless Internet Speed Is Not Stable
Jan 20, 2010I am a Linux newbie using fc11 and wireless broadband from 3G for my personal laptop. Sometimes my download speed is up to 100+ kB/s (due to my observation from using yum command) and also there is time its only 5.6 kB/s. Its really slow. At first, I disabled automatic update so that it can work faster. It does work faster for a while and then the speed drops to around 11 or 12 kB/s.
View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Creating Stable, Automatically Reconnecting PPTP Connection In Ubuntu
Aug 13, 2010I've been using network-manager-pptp to create a PPTP VPN connection in my Ubuntu virtual machine for a while now, but I have constant problems with random disconnects. I don't know what the cause of the problem is, but I suspect that network-manager-pptp is not the most well-written piece of software around...
Is there another way of instantiating PPTP connections in a more robust manner? The same PPTP server works reasonably OK with Windows 7 (some disconnects, fewer than in Ubuntu, and Windows has an auto-reconnect feature).
I read some guides on using the pptp command, but they all seemed pretty low-level, messing around with ppp. I never found the time to figure out how it all was supposed to fit together. Has anyone accomplished what I'm trying and is willing to share the knowledge?
EDIT: Tried kvpnc, and it seems the stability is more or less the same as network-manager-pptp. The error message is "Modem hangup".
To clarify, I understand that the connection can go down, but I want to be able to reconnect automatically when disconnected.

I've done keyword searches and related questions pop up, but not the most fundamental of all, namely -- How do I create a USB boot drive that will pop me into the latest edition of Ubuntu?Please guide me to a VERY specific guide, because I have looked all over Robin Hood's barn and back, and have found all manner of questions from people who can't get a USB boot key to work -- but nowhere have I found a simple, step-by-step guide for creating one in the first place. If I'm at the wrong forum, please guide me the right one.

View 4 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Defining A Root On A Just Installed Netbook Edition
Aug 16, 2010I just installed an ubuntu netbook edition on my notebook. In the installation process I defined a user with a password. I can use that password to access many system tools, like the synaptic package manager, adding users and so on..
However, when I wanted to do some staff in a terminal as a superuser (using the su command), and I enter my password (There is only a single user and a single password so far) I get authentification failure.
I went to System-->Administration-->uers and groups . I changed the my account type to an "Administrator" (for that I used again my password). hoping that I can use the su command but still it did not work..
I feel that the superuser needs to be set or defined. Since I have not done that then whatever pass word I enter after the command su I will always get "authentification failure"
How can I define the superuser and tell the system that I am the superuser of this computer?
