Ubuntu :: Use USB Drive As Part Of HDD?

Apr 2, 2011

Is there a way I can use my Flash Drive as part of my Hard Drive? Can I merge them together or something? To make my hard drive go from 20GB to 22GB? I know it is a petty 2GB but it would mean the world to my PC... I would like to increase my partition to include the Flash Drive to... can I do that?

Ubuntu Installation :: Boot ISO From One Part Of Drive And Install On Other

Mar 18, 2011

I tried to install ubuntu 10.10 onto an HP laptop and could not get anything to boot apart from windows vista. When I entered the boot options and selected CD to try and load the ubuntu CD it just booted off the HDD repeatedly. I removed (foolishly perhaps) the HDD and formatted it on my other machine, then created a start-up disk for ubuntu on it. I re-installed the hard drive and loaded ubuntu with no problems, but I can't install it. What do I need to do to the HDD (partitions, flags, etc) to make it so I can boot the iso from one part of the drive and install on the other?

Server :: How To Access Local Part / Domain Part Of Email Address In Postfix's Main.cf?

May 24, 2010

I'm trying to figure out how to access the local part and the domain part of an email address in postfix's main.cf. For example, myname@mydomain.net has myname as the local part and mydomain.net as the domain part.I get the whole email address with %s. I want to speed up the lookups by writing better database queries.I've had no luck finding this in the otherwise well documented postfix.

Ubuntu Installation :: Re Partition Space In Middle Of Drive Without Messing With Windows(sda1&2) And Shared Part

Jul 23, 2010

I've dual booted Ubuntu and Windows for years now and I've installed OSx86 on a separate drive which Grub2 picked up automagically and everything has been working great -- except I'm out of space. So I bought a 1.5 TB drive and installed win7 into sda1 (100MB NTFS bootloader for windows) and sda2 (50 GB NTFS windows drive). I now want to install two or three flavors of Linux. I'm thinking Ubuntu 10.04, Debian 5.05, and (if I'm bold enough) gentoo. each in 50GB partitions. I've already partitioned the drive a bit putting a 1.2 TB shared NTFS partition at the end (sda10), and a 2 GB swap parition just before that(sda9) My questions are:

(1) can all my linux distro's share that 2GB swap, or does each need it's own dedicated swap partition (installers generally assume you do)?

(2) can I re-partition space in the middle of the drive without messing with windows(sda1&2) and the shared part. (sda10)?

Ubuntu :: Filepath To Other Part Of The Harddrive?

Oct 13, 2010

i have 4 different harddriveparts (i hope that is the correct translation), on my PC, one for the OS (ubuntu) and 3 others for programms and documents for example. But now i need to go in a folder on another part in the console.

The other part has the id E61441A014417519, so i would guess that the order you have to enter would be: "cd mediaE61441A014417519folder" and then i would be "in" the folder, but the console said that there is not even a folder named "E61441A014417519".

Ubuntu :: Downloading A Part Of A File?

Nov 2, 2010

I know that the question could sound weird but...I was wondering if is possible to download one or more parts of a file.

For example, the first 10 mb, or the latter ones.

I know that there are some apps that let you do segmented downloads, but, is there anyone that let you choose the segment to be downloaded? If not, can this be accomplished with any linux command-line application?

Ubuntu :: Part Of System Screen Is Wider Than It Is?

Jun 30, 2010

I have a problem with in the Gnome Desktop environment. Some parts of my system seem to think my screen is wider than it actually is. To the right if my screen, there is a part of my workspace which I can't see. I can move the mouse pointer there (although I cannot see it then) and I can also drag windows onto this area. If I do that, the window disappears from sight, however, it is visible in the little workspaces of the workspace-switcher-applet in the lower right corner. This applet does display the entire width of the workspace (which is too wide for my screen). If I maximize a window, it does not go onto the invisible part of the workspace.

I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop Lenovo T410 and I found a strange behaviour: sometime a part of the screen (small rectangle) freezes and there is no way to unfreeze it.

Ubuntu Networking :: VPN - Can Connect In One Part Of The House But Not Another

Feb 1, 2011

I'm trying to connect to Ipredator. If I plug my laptop into the wired network in one part of my house, I am able to connect to the VPN. If I connect to the wifi in another part of the house, network manager fails to connect to Ipredator. I have a wall-plugged wireless range extender, Netgear WGX102, connected to the wired network in the part of the house where Ipredator works, and it is providing the wireless access point in the part of the house where Ipredator does not work.

I checked the Netgear website and they don't seem to have any newer firmware for it. I've tried everything I can think of in terms of changing settings in the wireless range extender. Am I doing something wrong, and if so, what? If the problem is with the wireless range extender, then what can I get to replace it?

Ubuntu :: Part Of Wireless Icon Blacked Out

Jun 30, 2010

I did a clean install of Lucid about three weeks ago. All fine and dandy except a couple of minor quirks that I can live with if not resolvable since everything else is flying! After I installed part of the Wireless icon had a small vertical black strip over it blacking it out. Didn't affect fuctionality but looked funny. If I reinstalled the Icon from " add to panel" and the associated indicator applet the missing chunk was one. But it would always reappear after boot up. Then after a few days the problem vanished and has never come back!

Now though I get this: Immediately after boot up the field in the top panel that contains the wireless icon is surrounded by a dotted line, like its a dotted square around it. Also in the bottom panel there is a dotted line around the field for the Windows List" indicator button even though at that point there's nothing minimised to the bottom panel. This phenomena only occurs immediately after boot up and as soon as I click somewhere on the desktop or the wireless icon they vanish and stay gone I'll fix it if I can but if not I can cope.

Ubuntu Installation :: Unmount Part Error In 11.04 Install

Mar 15, 2010

I ran the ubuntu 11.04 live CD on my laptop that had an earlier version of ubuntu (9 maybe??). I really liked what I saw so I used the Install ubuntu 11.04 wizard and chose the option to override the earlier version. During the 'Importing document and settings' step a pop-up entitled Failed to unmount partitions. the body stated: migration-assistant needs to mount a partition, but cannot do so because the following mount partition could not be unmounted:

/dev/sda1

The only app showing on the taskbar is the Install. this is running from the live CD.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Flash Videos Vanish Part Way Through?

Feb 2, 2010

over the last few weeks (i forget exactly when it started) viewing flash videos with konqueror on videos and on the bbc news site has become a bit of a lottery. generally the video starts ok but after a minute or so the video sometimes just disappears -- not even a black box, just white screen and no adobe flash menu on a right-click. the problem happens maybe 50% of the time with videos over a minute or so.

i have seen this on two different boxes both with karmic with the backports enabled. the problem certainly occurs with both kde 4.3.4 & 4.3.5, and i think it was also seen with 4.3.2. does anyone else see this problem? if so is there a fix? i think the following are the most relevant package versions:

code:
ii flashplugin-installer 10.0.42.34ubuntu0.9.10.1 adobe flash player plugin installer
ii konqueror 4:4.3.5-0ubuntu1~karmic1 kde 4's advanced file manager, web browser and document viewer

Ubuntu :: Packages Part Of Iso Image File Installation

Feb 24, 2010

When I look in /var/cache/apt/archives/, I see packages I recognize that I downloaded. But, I also see packages that I know I did not download, but rather were part of the initial installation of the image iso file on the CD. For example, the package for Abiword is in there. I would like to know which packages in this directory I installed, and which were part of the initial installation.

How do I know which packages are part of the installation from the image iso file on the CD? Once I know that, I would make a copy of all the other packages in this folder onto a DVD, so if I ever need to reinstall Ubuntu 9.10 I will know which packages to install over and above those part of the initial installation off the iso CD.

Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Access Gui Part Way Through Dist-upgrade

May 19, 2010

I am doing a dist-upgrade from 8.04LTS to 8.09. I use usb KVM switch, and I keep my eye on it so that I can respond to the usual configuration file prompts that pop up. For a while everything went fine, but suddenly I find that I can't use the keyboard to log in and check the progress (the mouse is completely unresponsive). Here's the kicker though: the computer is fine. I can use 'Ctrl-Alt F1' through F7, and the computer responds appropriately; it just doesn't do anything when the login screen is up.

I checked the /var/log/dist-upgrade/term.log, and if I understand it correctly, whether or not to keep /etc/mysql/my.conf is currently up for question. Is there any way to take back control of the computer without interrupting the upgrade? Not knowing very much about the install process, it seems like the GUI stopped polling for input.

Anyone know how to get it back?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Which Gnome Part Reads Mp3 Librarys?

Feb 3, 2011

Maybe a simple question, im not sure what is running behind the curtain.

banshee
guayadeque
gnomemusicbrowser
rhythmbox

are doing the same thing with my 14k mp3 library. They all dupe exactly the same files with every full rescan of the existing music library. So i guess they all use a gnome system part for this job and there is a bug inside this part. I want to file a bug against this part but don't know the name.
