Does anyone know? I have 9.04 as originally installed on my Dell netbook. It works great and I hate to change it although I realize I will have to one day. I do not see anything on the Ubuntu site as to an end of life date - it could be next month.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to find out when QME2572 (Qlogic) card became support by the kernel. We have a RHEL 5.1 system that is moving to new hardware, however the kernel at this release doesn't support the new hardware, due to the Qlogic card change. I tired the Redhat KB and Bugzilla. Is there a Kernel change list etc I can search. Never really played around with the kernel too much so I'm just after some pointers for looking up this information. Offically its not supported until Redhat 5.3, I'm trying trying to research kernel info so I can tell the customer they have to upgrade.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to dual-boot Windows 7 and Debian 6 upon its release on my sister's laptop. I want to share a partition between the two of them so that /home points to this directory and the Windows equivalent also points to it (C:Users).
Anyway, I've heard good and bad things about the NTFSMount driver (I think it's NTFS-3G now) and the NTFSprogs project and so I am not so certain what I should believe. I do know that NTFS has relatively high overhead, though I do not recall the source of this assertion, so I am considering the use of EXFAT. An open source EXFAT project is hosted on Google Code at [url] and it utilizes the kernel module FUSE.
I'm quite certain that I've got everything covered on the Windows side -- that is, I know that both NTFS and EXFAT will be suitable filesystems for my required usage.
My issue is that I'm curious which will have superior performance and stability in Debian. I planned on building the package from source and mounting the device in my FSTAB but I have also found a PPA for Ubuntu on Launchpad at [url] that I could borrow the debian/rules from and make a .deb package from.
What do you guys think? Should I go at it with the EXFAT or NTFS partitioning? Is NTFS-3G actually fairly supported at this point? Or perhaps should I consider some alternate method?
I have also considered that the only files she will be sharing are those of music, videos, and pictures so it could be better to just link /home/xxxx/Pictures (Music and Videos, too) to the new partition instead of all of /home.
I would like to know if it is possibile to have support for wi-fi midi support in linux.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI noticed lately the main chat client inserted in the new versions of Ubuntu is Empathy, rather nice, and I saw some very nice integrations in gnome-shell. Only one problem with it, no Off-The-Record (OTR) support, and no interest in implementing it. I am not sure how many of you out there are using it (OTR), but I basically love it, and I feel more safe when I use it. I like Empathy very much, but I do not understand the lack of interested of the developers for implementing such a great feature.
I have made this article, because I just want to do my part, as others did in filing bug reports, and making complaints to introduce this great feature to Empathy. If you want this feature in Empathy there are some places where you can make your voice heard: [URL]...
I know it says there they started to work on it in 2009, but after that no sign of development, basically for me it was just something to calm people down, and make them stop asking for this feature.I did not like the forced removal of pidgin, and the "you can use it, but we are not support it" excuse, but I learned to live with it, and adapt. I admit I am unable to code an otr plugin for Empathy or I would,
Is it possible to get multi-seat support so several people can use the same desktop at the same time? For collaboration I'd prefer different pointers on the same desktop session.

View 4 Replies View RelatedDoes Linux support USB Printers? I noticed under add printer it shows Lpt#1, Serial Port #1, Serial Port#2,Other and Network Printer but no USB. Is there something that needs to be installed to have USB Printer support? USB is the standard connection type of most printers theses days and only high end printers have Ethernet and I don't think any modern printer still uses a parallel or serial port.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI know a lot of discussion has been made about this issue, but I cannot seem to find an answer that works. I have used VirtualBox for a few years and just adding the user to group vboxusers used to work.Before that I had to add the user to usbusers or something like that. Now niether completely work.I say completely, because the only usb device available for use is my printer nothing else. Here is what I have done: added 'user' to the group vboxusers (gave me usb printer access but nothing else)
-attempted an old fix involving mounting /proc/dev/usb/ (or something like that) and get an error that that file does not exist ran virtualbox with sudo with full functionality (just to see)

I've searched online & can't find a driver.I bought it because the external VGA output on my laptop doesn't work.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am currently running Kubuntu 9.1, quite happily (triple booting macbook with snow leopard and Windows 7). I would like to upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04, but I have a few questions first. Correct me if I am wrong, but Kubuntu is just Ubuntu with the K Desktop Environment, no? So if I were to wipe my partition and install Ubuntu 10.04, I could then install the K Desktop Environment and have Kubuntu 10.04? (sudo apt-get install)
I have been trying to find a way to "see" my kubuntu partition while booted into either mac osx or windows. My kubuntu is currently using the ext4 filesystem though, and there are no drivers to make this work... Is it possible to install Kubuntu onto a filesystem other than ext2/3/4? Ideally I would like to install it onto NTFS, but i know in previous distros (6.1, 7.1) this was not possible. FAT 32 would work for me too,as my partition is only 15gb. Or does anyone know of any drivers for ext4 for mac and windows?

I've been trying to get lucid to work on my gateway netbook. The major problem I've seen is that it would overheat (to about 63 C or a little higher, and then the display would go crazy and crash. My BIOS doesn't support cpu scaling. Somewhere in a google search, someone mentioned the 2.6.34 kernel. I had no ideal what I was doing, and I installed this kernel. (could not install headers -- a dependency issue I didn't understand). Tried it, and it booted.
Saw some errors, like timer or something not found and something about a soft reset. However, it boots, and it works, and the temperature is much better (at least for the last 42 minutes: I've not been able to run it that long before). Are those errors likely to cause problems? Are there any issues I should be aware of using a non-standard kernel like this? I am dual booting with 9.10, which works well, and all my serious work is on the 9.10 partitions.

There are some of applications that ship with ubuntu that do not have proxy support. I am a university student and I need to access internet behind a proxy server. But as some of the applications have no proxy support, I have to install alternate applications to do the same job.

10.04 doesn't support my father's computer. I always have to switch between 4.1 surround sound and 5.1. After I change a song, or watch another video, it only plays static, then I have to go into sound preferences and change it again, until the next song. I didn't have this trouble in 9.04 on his computer. The problem now is, he actually replaced windows with Ubuntu this time, so he wants everything to work. So what software was installed in 9.04 and how do I get it to 10.04?
