Ubuntu One :: Does Desktopcouch Automatically Sync
Feb 27, 2010
I'm playing around with quickly a little bit, and was just experimenting with putting a CouchGrid into an application. It's kind of amazing how easy it is to get structured, persistent data by doing that.
But I would like to understand a little more about the synchronization with UbuntuOne. It has been mentioned here and there that there are hooks in UbuntuOne to synchronize particular apps across different computers, using desktopcouch. That's great and all, but I am actually concerned a bit about data security.
Does anyone know -- if I am working on a computer where I have UbuntuOne enabled, and where I'm using the free 2GB UbuntuOne account, and I write a quickly app that stores some information using desktopcouch; does that information automatically make its way to Canonical's servers? I'm really hoping that the answer is no, and that I would explicitly have to choose to enable some kind of synchronization with the UbuntuOne cloud. But it's really not clear yet from anything I've looked at.

I have updated to 10.04 on my desktop and on my Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop.What I would like to do is have the machines automatically synchronise working files as they change on each machine. I have found backup programs but am not sure if they will do what I need

I've setup both a http server and svn server and have a SVN project residing in the "/srv/svn/kdrepos/THOR/" directory. I would like this project to automatically do a checkout into the /srv/www/htdocs/ on update/commit. Is this in any way possiblely? Some sites (xp-dev) for example offer an option to have a repository automatically 'added' to a webserver. Does anyone know how is done? I'd xp-dev if it wasn't for the fact that I also need full access rights on the machine

I have triplebuffer set up in the xorg.conf, i am using the squeeze Nvidia drivers (the ancient one), installed debian way.
In nvidia-settings, i have enabled all the entries of sync to vblank, but after i log in, if i go a glxgears, i get 1000+fps, then i start nvidia-settings, the screen flickers when it starts for some reason, resolution is still at native (1366x768), after starting and quitting nvidia-settings, starting glxgears made it 60fps.
How to i make sure sync to vblank is forced? i prefer it this way.

I've got Ubuntu One syncing a single 25MB folder on 4 computers. On one of these computers, the ubuntuone-syncdaemon process constantly pegs the CPU, using from 50-80% long after any sync-able files have been modified and successfully synced. The process is only using 8.9MB of RAM.
Specs:
Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid)
Kernel 2.6.32-24-generic
1000.8 MB RAM
Pentium 4 2.53GHz
Free disk space: 280.9 GB
System monitor shows 56.8% total RAM usage, 15.4% swap file usage.

Audio sync method. "Stretches/squeezes" the audio stream to match the timestamps, the parameter is the maximum samples per second by which the audio is changed. -async 1 is a special case where only the start of the audio stream is corrected without any later correction.Searching the net makes one believe that this command is just some sort of magic.People just put it in the line and it just works. Isn't that nice?
It says nothing about how to change the TIME the audio starts syncing. Like do I want it to start 5 seconds delayed? Or what about 5 seconds sooner?What if the audio gets more out of sync as the video goes on? Can I slip it a little at a time? What? No magic?No one mentions a file that already has badly synced audio.So what -async 1 really does is simply start the audio at the beginning of the file. LIKE AS IF THAT ISN'T STANDARD PROCEDURE?So what is the exact solution to syncing a messed up video? And why can't it just do the proper "timestamp" sync in the first place?No docs, no info and you are left out in the cold.

I use jpilot on opensuse 11.3 64bit to sync pim data with my Palm Treo 680 via bluetooth. This worked fine until today. Now I get the following error message when I try to sync: Syncing on device bt: Press the HotSync button now dlp_ReadSysInfo error Exiting with status YNC_ERROR_PI_CONNECT Finished.
The last successfull sync was on the 20th October and today is the 24th October. I did not change any settings in jpilot or on my palm device. So I guess there must have been an update of opensuse which causes this error. But I do not now how to look up the updates during this period or how to undo them. Was there an update between the 20th and the 24th Oktober, which might affect either jpilot or bluetooth functionality?

I've discovered Firefox Sync a while ago, and it's absolutely awesome. Now of course I'd like most of my software to work this way! So is there a way to get the same behavior with Thunderbird?

I am having trouble getting grub to automatically boot into ubuntu server. When I turn on my server the grub menu shows up and shows me the choices. They all work fine except that grub wont automatically select one. This wouldn't be too much of a problem but this is a headless server and I can't boot into ubuntu without a keyboard. I tried looking through the grub 2 documentation but nothing seemed to work when I edited the conf file.

how do I uninstall Java? Tried with Synaptic and apt-get remove, but uninstalling sun-java6 automatically adds default-jre (openjdk) and uninstalling openJdk automatically installs sun-java ... but I don't want ANY Java on my machine - am I missing something? Already thought I maybe have a package that requires SOME kind of Java, but how do I find out?

I want to use rsync to synchronize some folders on my LAN. I have this working with two scripts; one runs at the beginning of my work session and gets the latest directory tree from the server, and the other runs at the end of the session to put any local changes back on the server. My "get" script looks something like this:
Code:
rsync -avuzb --backup-dir=/home/user/rsync_backup_dir --delete my_server:/home/bak/common_data/ /home/user/data
This works well, and with the "b" option any file that has been deleted from the master directory tree on the server will be deleted from the local machine and moved to the local backup directory. This is a safety measure to prevent the loss of files through a mistake (on my part).
The problem is the "put" script:
Code:
rsync -avuzb --backup-dir=/home/user/rsync_backup_dir --delete /home/user/data/ my_server:/home/bak/common_data
I want to run both scripts from the local machine, but the "put" script will not save deleted files to a backup directory. I tried using a remote backup directory like "my_server:/home/user/rsync_backup_dir" but this did not work. Is there a way to backup files deleted from a remote server from an rsync script run locally?

Well I've read that 10.04 was supposed to be able to detect and sync to iPhones. It doesn't.
9.10 would sync photos but 10.04 won't even detect it.

I am just starting to get with the Unbuntu One set up. What a cracking idea and service.
I am using Ubuntu 10.10 on my desktop and have a MacBook OSX for when I travel occasionally.
I can seem to see an answer to whether I can use my Mac to sync with my files on One or not. I have ssen the new Windows tool and the mobile App mentioned but nothing about Mac.

I want to sync music on my iPhone 4 (version 4.3.3) with Ubuntu 11.04.
Is there any working way to do that?
I've already tried Amarok, Banshee, and iTunes on wine. None of them work.

i set up ssh and unison on my windows machine and i am trying to do a sync on my ubuntu machine to windows. i am running into some issues.
certain paths give me the following error: Error: The path Music/Xxxx is ambiguous (i.e., the name of this path or one of its ancestors is the same, modulo capitalization, as another path in a case-sensitive filesystem, and you are synchronizing this filesystem with a case-insensitive filesystem. When i search for Xxxx on my ubuntu system i only see it in that one Music/Xxxx location.

I have a new portable media player, an Archos 5. I very much like it because there is much more I can do with it than with my iPod.
I managed to get it to work in Amarok once, to transfer my library from the iPod to it. Now, I can't get Amarok to read it. Everytime I try, it freezes up on me.
Has anybody had any better luck using a different program with the Archos 5? Is there maybe a way to make Amarok work with it?

So after much hate of Ubuntu One I uninstalled, --purged, and got rid of it. No I'm thinking of giving a second chance. I reinstalled, but IT JUST WON'T SYNC. It's just says your files are up to date...

I'm dual-booting Windows 7 and Lucid, and I want to sync my documents folder from /windows (a mounted ntfs partition) to Ubuntu One. I right-click and it lets me click on sync with Ubuntu One, but then it does nothing. I've checked and I am able to sync other folders from my ext4 filesystem. Any ideas?

I have a simple question: Presume I have two (or more) computers set up with Ubuntu One. I copy the exact same file manually into my Ubuntu One folder on two computers, will the U1 service realise this and not download it again? For example, I want to copy to the cloud a large file so that I can share it with others. It will upload to the server from the computer I first copy it to. Then on the second computer I copy it to the Ubuntu One folder as well, because I don't want to download it since I already have it. Will the U1 service on the second computer see the local file and skip the download?

How can I sync a folder between Ubuntu's main drive (ext4) and Windows 7... My case is, I want to get Pidgin (using it on Ubuntu and Win7) saving the chat logs in one "common" folder. I tried using the "Make Link" thing but on Win7 the folder I made link to appeared as a file. So yea, basically I wanna know how to sync a folder. Also if someone could help me, the chat logs saved by Pidgin in Win7 are saved somewhere in Documents and Settings, probably not giving me the option to change where the logs get saved.

Whenever I try to sync music to my iPod nano 5th gen the songs dont sync. Ive been trying to use Banshee since I couldnt delete songs using Rythembox. The problem though is that it says its syncing, the songs are transferring, and all that good stuff but when I go to look at my music theres nothing in there.
