I am running PunBB on my home server (Lubuntu). It works fine while browsing the site from my desktop computer via internal IP. When I access the domain name from outside my router it does not display the site correctly, instead of a nice php site, it pulls up a site that looks like no php was used.If I try and access a index.html page (instead of the index.php) on my server from the outside it works real quick with no problems.
I just reinstalled Ubuntu Lucid Lynx and an old problem has come back. For some reason I couldn't fix it even in my previous installation. The problem is the top gnome panel. See the photo below: As you can see, the network icon is not shown properly while the Me menu is being shown twice. I can't even restart or log out or shut down at this situation without pressing the keystroke to turn the power off.
I have had Ubuntu on my own laptop for a few weeks, and I really like it. I bought my daughter a new mini laptop (Samsung N130) a few days ago, which came with XP. It has no CD/DVD drive, so I downloaded Ubuntu onto a 2GB memory stick, and installed it from there. The installation went fine, but I can't go online. When I click on the network manager icon there is no wireless network shown. It only shows wired network and VPN connections. If I right-click, it doesn't show 'enable wireless', just 'enable networking'. I think I have switched on the wireless network card, which seems to be F9 on her laptop, with an antenna icon. There is an LED showing with that same icon.
I installed ubuntu 11.04 in my notebook. When I try to use some compiz features my desktop is not show after I reboot it. How to resolve it, I don't know, because I found nothing in my desktop. Only docky after I install that.
I am running ubuntu 11.04. Compiz seems to be installed as shown by green in Synaptic along with some other related packages. I have now marked compiz-fusion bcop & Emerald & installed them. Both turned green in Synaptic. While Emerald Manager is seen in the System Preference list, Compiz is not seen anywhere. How to launch Compiz?
I copied some xscreensavers into the screensavers folder which is in usr/applications/screensavers. Now when I go to my screensaver application, they don't show up at all. What should I do? I am running Ubuntu 10.10.
For two of my partitions on sda (they are NTFS parts) I have configured them via the NTFS Configuration Tool to mount at boot. This is OK - I can see them in Places, Computer; they are listed together with the mounted icon to the right. However, there is also two other partitions listed - that are not shown as mounted - with the same label name. (I can also see these duplicate parts listed if I click on Places ad look down at the various devices attached under Computer). If I right click on these unmounted parts I see there is a greyed out option to Remove. How do I remove these duplicate partitions?
I have googled and looked around on the forums but I couldn't find anything that directly answers my question. I have a dual boot set up with Vista and Ubuntu 9.10. My hard drive is partitioned into dev/sda1 (where Vista resides) and dev/sda2 (where Ubuntu resides) and /dev/sda4 which I use as a shared hard drive for the two operating systems.
When I first installed Ubuntu on dev/sda2 I used gparted to make /dev/sda2 a 10 GB partition becuase I wanted to try putting ubuntu on a very small partition. Since then I used gparted to expand /dev/sda2 to 32GB. But when I use System Monitor (System--->Adminstrative----->System Monitor) it shows only that the /dev/sda2 space is 10GB (and says that there are only 2.9 GB) remaining unused. Yet when I use gparted to look at the partitions, it says that /dev/sda22 is 32 GB with 3.9 GB remaining unused.
I am wondering if anyone knows why they show two different sizes and what I can do to fix the size being shown. When I tried to make a tar gz back up of my system iit returned a message warning me that my /dev/sda2 partition was almost full because it put the 1.5 GB tar gz file in my home drive (which I suppose the system monitor only sees as a 10 GB space that already has 7 GB in it).
For example, an mp3 file has all the tags filled - track number, year, genre, etc. But when in Amarok, some tags are not shown to me.Look at the attached screenshot, please. You see, when I look into track properties I can see that it HAS got a track number and a year. But it is not shown in playlist.
I have a logical partition formatted with NTFS and created (from Windows) after Ubuntu 9.10 was installed. It's name is "Volume". Now, it doesn't show under places nor nautilus. I think it is shown when using the Live CD again. It is shown in Volume Manager. How can I have it show up next to my other partitions?
I accidentally deleted my upper panel and I had to restore it. However, when I decided to custom my time and date format using configuration editor (gconf-editor) through apps>panel>clock_screen0, the clock_screen0 folder is missing. Only several folders entitled applets with corresponding numbers are shown.
I once was able to customize it so now I'm really confused why it disappeared.
When is the 10.04 upgrade going to show on my update manager? I have been running the update manager since yesterday and the 10.04 upgrade hasn't shown up yet. It is still showing an upgrade to 8.10. I have been waiting to upgrade while exploring and using the 8.04 LTS Hardy. Now that it has been released it isn't showing on the update manager.
About items in Synaptic which are shown as upgradeable. (see attachment)The first item is, according to the description, used by ATI cards. I use nVidia. Can I just uninstall the package without problems, or will my system fall apart?
The next item is gimp-gap. When trying to upgrade it says it depends on another package which:
Code:
How to upgrade this package?
The last one is xul-runner-1.9.2. In the past when I updated this package, the package OpenFTD which I use doesn't want to start anymore. According to the person who writes this, it depends on the way Mozilla and Ubuntu are building the package xulrunner. This could be a "cheap" answer but what to do? Do I need xulrunner when I don't use Firefox? I do use Thunderbird however.
When I don't do anything these three items will be presented as upgradeable all the time and I don't want or cannot install the upgrades.
Actually, Nautilus allows two instances of the same folder, or two folders with the same name in the same directory, as long as one is hidden (with the .prefix) and the other is shown. It happens that, if during a download (through a download manager or a torrent client) the user adds the . prefix to the download folder, another will be automatically created by the application (let's say Transmission for example) and the download would continue to that new folder. If any renaming happens (or if the original folder is restored), the download will resume to the folder with whichever initial name. Eventually, the user will be left with an unusable/corrupt complete download.
I successfully connected to my office's (Windows) servers, so usually I can browse for files via Places. But when I want to upload a file for example as an attachment in gmail, after clicking the browse button, only the local drives and folders are visible in the file upload window. Is there some way to tell my browsers (Chromium and FF) there are more drives in life? (I'm using Maverick Meerkat). (And I'm not sure the problem is my browser or my settings or anything else..)
This may be a minor irritation, but I'm puzzled by it nonetheless. I'm ripping my CDs to MP3 using Sound Juicer with the lamemp3enc plugin and following gstreamer pipeline.
All was great a couple days ago, but suddenly the files' audio properties show 48 kbps bitrate when it should be well over 200. I even changed the pipeline to use "target=1 bitrate=256" with the same result. The files are being encoded as expected and that is reflected in the file size and the Statistics view in VLC.
I have two computers running Ubuntu 10.10. One has all the latest updates, but the other has not been updated in several days. This problem is happening on the former, but not the latter. gst-inspect lamemp3enc shows both computers have the same version of the encoder.
I thought I'd put it out to the forum here before submitting a bug in launchpad.
My dad has an older netbook that I installed Ubuntu 10.10 to, but he complained that it was too clunky.So I did what any good son would do and installed GNOME and Ubuntu themes on top of the minimal version of Ubuntu 10.10.It does run much faster, but I have a small problem with the Notification Area: nm-applet IS running.Notification Area is added to my panel, and in view.I have two interfaces, one wired, one wireless, both function correctly (both manually configured with gedit)
Neither one of the aforementioned interfaces are being displayed in the Notification Area, and my dad is not familiar with Ubuntu or any of the commands, so this is really a must-have for him.
I have installed d4x its not showing in Ubuntu 11.04 dash but its showing as installed in software center. I have tried the command of "which d4x" and I got nothing.
Code: assassin@genupulas:~$ sudo dpkg --configure d4x [sudo] password for assassin: dpkg: warning: there's no installed package matching d4x
Code: assassin@genupulas:~$ which d4x assassin@genupulas:~$
I've always been a fan of Fedora since the first distro. I remember downloading 4 cds and then relizing that I only needed one. ;D Anyways, I've been using Ubuntu for years. I've gotten tired of the Ubuntu fan boys and just the responses I get from saying that Ubuntu was my distro. I've moved to Fedora to simply learn and understand the yum system which I already enjoy using in the terminal.
All of that set aside, I've kept my Ubuntu /home partition (ext4) in tact as I always do moving from distro to distro and have never had a problem. The thing is, all the distros I've tried have deb based. Now, my /home partition is roughly 56gbs. Nautilus shows free space as 8gbs currently on my parition so I know the files are still there but why won't Fedora read them? It must be a permission thing, but what? If I must loose my /home it's fine, however I'd much prefer not to.
I am having trouble with connecting my Sony Ericsson phone with my Ubuntu 9.10 using USB. It doesn't matter how I choose to connect it - "File Transfer" and "Phone Mode" - both does not work. The phone IS charching, when it is connected, but it doesn't shows anywhere. When I type "lsusb" in terminal, it does not show me my phone. When I look in "/var/log/messages" there is NO error. It does not even show the procedure of connecting and disconnecting the phone. What could be the problem?
I use jaunty, and everytime i start pidgim it crashes not error message shown, i removed it and installed it again, no sucess. I guess it must be dropping error messages somewhere. Can someone help or provide me where should i be looking for the error messages, i went to system log but could not find it. I tried dmsg | tail , post the crash, did not see anything.
I installed sun virtual box 3.1 by double clicking on its .deb package and it said it has been successfully installed, but I can't see it in the applications menu, what's wrong ? It's listed under synaptic package as installed after completing the installation
I like the way 10.04 lts is running on my old PC, except I can't seem to install my HP 895C. This printer worked on previous releases on Ubuntu. The printer is local and cabled to the PC's parallel port. But "Add" under printing doesn't show any parallel printers under local printers. Only shows serial port, other, and network printers. Is this because 10.04 is beta? "Troubleshooting printers" doesn't have a list of printers. Is the lpt1 in PC speak /dev/lp0 in Linux? Should that be the printer URI?
I have few different usb cards and socets , some of them i have really hotwired.. and i would like to find out where to keep my usb-hdd . few months ago i would use "total commander" it would show .. copying-444Kb/s but these times are over...

I have reinstalled, removed rebooted and installed bluez, bluez-utils, Blueman, bluetooth number of times now. Two attachments are included, BlueZ output screen Bluetooth output screen Bluetooth works perfect, when I boot lucid using live CD, So I guess there is some problem with the installation. I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.4. It never worked with 9.10 and its continuing the same way.
After a restart, I see bluetooth icon, but its grey all the time. Two more screen shots.. Bluetooth output screen (Turn on) Bluetooth output screen (Turned on) sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth status * bluetooth is running
I've installed KDE 4 in Dream Studio 10.10, as I'd like to switch over to KDE 4 like I've done in my netbook. The problem I'm having is even with the user name selected with a password box displayed, there's no bar at the bottom of the screen in GDM. I prefer GDM instead of KDM because I like the fact that I can select a user even though I'm the only user, but I do like the behavior of Windows XP/Vista/7 (select a user, hit enter, enter the password, and hit enter to login, but that's not as close to how KDM works if there's only a single user in the system -- no big deal).how do I get the bar appear in the bottom of the screen after I select the user in GDM?
I'm in the Live CD and I've followed the steps to the migration assistant. Where it should say "Windows XP Media Center Edition" it claims that "There were no other users or operating systems suitable for importing from"
Also, on the where to install to step, Where at the top it should say that another operating system is installed, it is blank.
I'm wondering if I continue the installation, on boot-up will it detect windows?
I have searched this, and after 15 pages of results, I have not come to a definite conclusion.
I have dual boot Windows/Ubuntu 9.10 and everything was running fine until recently when after booting to Ubuntu just showed me the system background image with mouse pointer and that was it - no login screen, nothing.
I tried swithing to console mode and logging in - it works fine, but swithing back to x just gives me the background image and the mouse pointer ( it is working though )
