Ubuntu :: Email Roadblock After Switching From Windows?

Mar 14, 2010

I have Googled a bunch for this and have found that it may not be possible, but I would love to find out I am wrong since this is the issue keeping me from switching from Windows full time. My school uses an Exchange server hosted by Microsoft and accessible, from Outlook 2007 through Outlook.com via http proxy. We have laptops with MS office 2007 installed and can use the Outlook connector to connect to this server.Is it possible to use an email client in Linux to connect to this server and retain the use of mail and calendar.

General :: Can Switching File Systems Affect Email Backups And Other Data?

Nov 27, 2010

A while back I installed Dreamlinux 3.5 Gnome edition using ext2. When I attempted to use the email address books I imported from the Dreamlinux3.5 XFCE edition, which had been ext3, I discovered that none of the email addresses could be mailed to. I had to manually type in the addresses.

When I reinstalled Dreamlinux 3.5 Gnome using ext3, the same backup files that did not work in ext2 now work just fine. The question is, was this a "broken data" problem caused by the switch to ext2 file system or something else? Has anyone else experienced this?

The mail program is Thunderbird.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Roadblock Streaming Webcam - Wouldn't Refresh Unless Rebooted

Nov 3, 2010

I have an apache server here that i would like to add a webcam to, to stream video to a webpage hosted on said server. Now i hit some trouble using 10.10 with v4l2 not being able to make use of my webcam.

So this is where i stand right now:

I have ubuntu 9.10 Server installed Apache2 (good install, shows default page on networked computers) Static IP of 192.168.1.4 openssh (works fine) Samba sharing /var/www to my windows machine Logitech C120m connected via USB 2.0

I have tryed 2 guides using both webcam-server and VLC, Neither worked however one would show a single frame when i connected to the webpage when i tryed on other ubuntu desktop, but wouldn't refresh unless i rebooted. I tryed the webcam on my other 9.10 computer and it worked fine with cheese (Video0 is there on the server)

The server has pretty much a clean install with nothing on it (yet). I have 3 empty 40GB hard drives, so installing and testing another release of ubuntu.

Ubuntu :: Switching Between Partitions, Windows Xp Pro To 11.04

Jun 27, 2011

I was running 11.04 as my main OS untill I installed Win Xp Pro. 50 GiB Ubuntu and 100 GiB Win Xp Pro. Now when ever I boot my computer (Acer Extensa 5620) it AUTOMATICALLY goes into the Win Xp Pro OS. So I have no idea how to access all of my Ubuntu files and programs etc. This is a really big problem as I have yet to hook up Win Xp Pro to the internet. It is an older OS and it has made things very difficult. So I really need to be able to switch OS partitions.

Ubuntu :: Switching From Windows Server 2003 To 11.04

Jun 1, 2011

I am switching from Windows Server 2003 to Ubuntu 11.04.

These are two different machines, the Windows Server has 2 2TB Hard drives in it, that are setup as a RAID 1. The data on the drives is irreplaceable. I've scoured the internet for about two weeks, trying to find the best solution. It seems like everyone else had a slightly different setup, or the was no solution.

The Ubuntu Server has a 40GB SSD in it. I just installed a 2TB Hard drive (same make and model of the two in the Windows Server) and made the filesystem for it ext3.

First thing I did was just throw the 2 2TB Hard Drives in the new server, and tried to set them up as a software RAID. After it prompt me to erase the drives, I strayed away from that idea.

My end goal is having Ubuntu machine completely replace the Windows machine, so I'll need to setup Samba (which I'm sure I can figure that part out).

How can I get all the data off the 2TB Hard Drives that are using NTFS onto a RAID in the Ubuntu machine with an ext3 filesystem?

Ubuntu :: Can't Find Windows Partition After Switching To Xubuntu?

Feb 13, 2011

I've switched from Ubuntu Hardy to Xubuntu using the terminal. The only problem is I can't find my WinXP partition any more. In Ubuntu I used to mount it by going to 'Places' menu and clicking the folder icon. It's now gone. I can't see the icon in Xubuntu.Been reading other threads trying to find out what to do, but I'm relatively new to Linux. I can't find the folder under /media either. Also, I don't know what types my partitions are. Is this important? I figured I could access my Win folder in Xubuntu the way I would in Ubuntu.

Debian Configuration :: How To See Desktop When Switching Windows

Nov 11, 2010

Im using xfce desktop environment in debian. I find that I can not see the desktop when using Ctrl+Alt+Tab to switch window focus. I modified /usr/share/xfce-mcs-plugins/shortcuts/defaults.xml and added Ctrl+Alt+Tab shortcut to trigger a terminal command "wmctrl -k on", then i could see the desktop, but failed to switch window focus. Also, I failed to solve this problem by editing /usr/share/themes/Default/xfwm4/keythemerc Could anybody tell me a solution that you should be able to see the desktop when switching window focus, just like in win7?

General :: Switching And Keeping Windows With VirtualBox?

Dec 21, 2010

I'm currently running a Vista machine, but would like to switch over to Linux, Ubuntu in particular. My question is can I switch over to Ubuntu, keep my Windows partition and use VirtualBox to access the pre-existing Windows partition? Or does VirtualBox require me to create a new install for Guest operating systems?

If not, are there any other free alternatives to accomplish this?

Fedora :: Switching Keyboard Layouts Using Windows Manager?

Nov 17, 2009

In Fedora 11 I cannot switch keyboard layouts between English-Russian-Ukrainian when using window managers other than Gnome/Metacity/Openbox. However, I can see my custom "us,ru,ua" layout in GDM. My "/etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi" file is as follows:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- -->
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keymap">
<append key="info.callouts.add" type="strlist">hal-setup-keymap</append>
</match>

<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keys">
<merge key="input.xkb.rules" type="string">base</merge>
<!-- If we're using Linux, we use evdev by default (falling back to keyboard otherwise). -->
<merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">keyboard</merge>
<match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.kernel.name" string="Linux">
<merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">evdev</merge>
</match>

<merge key="input.xkb.layout" type="string">us,ru,ua</merge>
<!-- <merge key="input.xkb.variant" type="string">,,winkeys</merge> -->
<merge key="input.xkb.options" type="string">grp:ctrl_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>

The file "/etc/sysconfig/keyboard" is
Code:
KEYBOARDTYPE="pc"
KEYTABLE="ru-cs"
LAYOUT="us,ru,ua"
MODEL="pc105+inet"
OPTIONS="grp:ctrl_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
VARIANT=""
Does this problem persist in Fedora 12?

General :: Switching Between Windows Would Cause A Network Adapter To Stop Being Recognized?

Feb 15, 2011

I am using Linux and Windows 7 on the same machine and my on-board NIC is functional under both. However, the weirdest thing happens when I browse the internet under Linux and then return to Windows; my NIC stops being recognized! This happens under Windows but also in Linux when I return! This problem is then easily fixed by resetting the CMOS, but inevitably occurs again. Why does this happen? Update The CMOS reset works but is not necessary for me. Shutting down and unplugging the power cord works as well.

General :: Gnome - Plug-ins To Let Me Do `<Win>`+`<Num>` Style App Switching (like Windows 7's Superbar)?

Mar 2, 2011

Using Windows 7's superbar, I can select/launch the 2nd application group by <Win>+<2>. We have DockbarX in GNOME, which is nice (grouping the windows like Windows 7), but it doesn't enable the <Win>+<2> style keybaord shortcuts.This is not restricted to making Linux like Windows. But I just find the <Win>+<2> style shortcut very useful. Are there similar ways in Linux to quickly switch between specific apps without pressing <Alt>+<Tab> many many times?

CentOS 5 :: KDE Keyboard / Mouse Freeze / Buggy When Alt-tab'ing / Switching Between Windows

Jun 13, 2010

I'm a long time user of CentOS 5 w/KDE 3.5. I have always had this problem to various degrees no matter what installation of CentOS 5 I'm currently on. This same hardware does not exhibit the same symptoms with another OS.The problem is I regularly have many konsole instances open. I alt-tab between them frequently. Inevitably a random alt-tab will freeze the keyboard and the mouse won't be able to click anything although I can move the mouse cursor around. I can't type anything. It seems to have some sort of timeout and it always come back to responsiveness.

I alleviated this problem (I think) by switching keyboards, installing the nvidia driver instead of the nv driver, shutting down all non-essential services.I have seen these symptoms on every system I have installed CentOS 5 where KDE 3.5 was also installed. Very different hardware setups each time.Has anyone else run into similar symptoms?I'm surprised that it's just CentOS 5 w/KDE 3.5 that exhibits this behaviour on the same hardware where other operating systems (gentoo, suse, etc.) did not exhibit these symptoms.

General :: Php - Text Editor That Can Save Locally And Via FTP For Switching From EditPlus On Windows

May 18, 2010

I just switched from Windows to Linux. I've been using EditPlus for many years mainly because of it's ability to save locally, and then send the file via FTP, with easy keyboard shortcuts (ctrl-s to save, ctrl-alt-s to ftp).

I also need syntax highlighting and basic code editing features. Is there anything for Linux that can do this? I don't want to run EditPlus via Wine

I need to save locally and remotely simultaneously, or at least with a few keystrokes. I already know of plenty of ways to edit remote files.

General :: When Switching From Mint To Windows - 70% Of The Time My Wireless Stops Working

Feb 5, 2011

I am currently dual booting between Linux Mint 10, and Windows Vista SP2. Wireless works fine in both these OSes, but when I quit Mint and load Windows, 70% of the time my wireless stops working.

ie, it does not detect any wireless networks nearby, althought there are tons of them.

Restarting the wireless device doesnt help, I have to restart my computer at least 4 times for wireless to start working again.

And as of now, my wireless in Linux Mint has stopped working.

OpenSUSE :: Importing Email From Windows Mail?

Feb 2, 2010

I've played with various distros over the last couple of years but always given up due to video problems. I've just installed 11.2 and the video problems are no more so I want to try and stick with it but..... unless I can get my emails across from Windows Mail I'll have to give up. Is there a client that will sensibly import my emails without too much fuss? I've got thousands of mails that I want to move across and they're split into around 50 folders.

Ubuntu :: Evolution Email - Intersperse Replies Into Quoted Email?

Apr 24, 2010

I use 'quoted' style for reply emails. I want to be able to intersperse my replies within a quoted reply i.e. if the email had three paragraphs, I'd like to be able to have my replies between each of the paragraphs. At the moment, I don't seem to be able to do anything other than delete from the quoted section - I try to simulate my requirements by cutting and then 'paste quotation', but this doesn't always work as sometimes Evolution adds too many levels of '> ' .

Ubuntu :: Use An Email Client Like Alpine To Read Imported Email?

Feb 24, 2011

we had a server with Hostway, and it was running ubuntu. The server also had Plesk installed, which did some funny things. We had several websites on that server, and many email addresses. Then we changed servers. Now we have a server through Rackspace and it is also running Ubuntu. It also has Virtualmin installed, which generally does not impose as many unconventional changes on Ubuntu as Plesk did.

Rather than using Thunderbird to download my email (which is what I used to do) I've decided I'll start reading my email on the server. So I will ssh to the server and then use some email client, such as Alpine, to read the email. So I installed Alpine. I have an email account for "lawrence". The email address is lawrence @ krubner. Currently, when mail arrives for that account, it is stored here:

/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/new

and then it is transferred to hear:

/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/cur

When I start Alpine, while logged in as lawrence, Alpine automatically sets up an inbox for me here:

/home/lawrence/mail/

How do I get Alpine (or any other client) to read from the correct folder? I'm fairly sure the email package (the MTA) at work on this new server is Postfix. As near as I can tell, my email is held for 24 hours in this folder:

/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/new

and then it gets transferred here:

/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/cur

Alpine only lets me set one path for my Inbox, so I'm not sure what path I should set. If I use "cur" I will see all email 1 day late, but if I use "new" then I will miss email if I go a day without checking.
