A few days ago I made the mistake of upgrading to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, and subsequently had nothing but trouble. My volume icon disappeared and for the life of me I couldn't find it or reinstall it. An eerily Windows-like chat icon has appeared next to my login name that I didn't ask for, and more importantly my handbrake program (Matroska encoder) completely stopped working.
I've learned in the past that LTS editions are not normal upgrades, and I should best avoid them. But this one appears from the Ubuntu homepage to be the standard upgrade from Karmic to Lucid. I've had to completely reinstall Karmic on my workstation just to be able to carry on as normal, but the laptop seems to be coping ok with the LTS edition. Can anybody tell me if this LTS is now the default upgrade for Lucid, or is this just a regular LTS and I should wait for my standard one to come out?

how to access a FTP server with php. I've written a script from a tutorial but I'm getting errors with the ftp_get function.
PHP Code:
[code].....
Warning: ftp_get() [function.ftp-get]: Error opening /var/www/download.txt/ in /var/www/gwr/connect.php on line 11
I'm having trouble with the ftp_get function and I believe the problem is with the local server path. In this case var/www/download.txt I've also used a folder in that directory called download in the place of the .txt file and it gives the same errors. Is var/www/ the correct path to tell php where to download the files to? I've experimented with the files permission and nothing has worked. I'm running a standard ubuntu desktop install, Karmic Koala.

How do i find the correct path to my cd-rom drive? I want to install office 2007 using wine and I have used the programmerfish tutorial and now have to do the following:type wine /path to cd/setup.exe but I cannot seem to find the correct path.
-I tried /dev/sr0/setup.exe but it returned an error.
-I tried /dev/sr0/media/setup.exe. returned the same error.
-I tried /dev/media/setup.exe. Also no good.
I thought using df would help me and there i found /dev/sr0/ would be my cd-rom drive. Dunno it this correct though.

I mistakenly moved the /home/user/Desktop file to another location so now when my desktop starts it used the entire contents of my /home/user/ directory (except for the hidden contents) to create icons all over my desktop.
I have restored the Desktop folder to the correct location but it ignores it now and continues to show every file under /home/user as an icon.
How do I reset it to point to the original Desktop folder?

I'm looking for a script or a bittorrent client which is able to move a file after downloading and placing it in a specific folder depending on the file type. E.g. moving a newly downloaded movie to "Videos" and an ISO-file to "Files".
I feel as if i have used a client with this functionality before but can't remember the name.
Since I at the moment use Transmission as my bittorrent client a script would also work since Transmission can run it after finishing the download.

After installing texlive I got this message:
"add /usr/local/texlive/2011/bin/i386-linux to your PATH for current and future sessions."
By default the result of echo $PATH in ubuntu 10.04 LTS is:
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin/bin:/usr/games
In my .bashrc file, exactly where should I insert the suggested PATH? Does it matter where it is put (please keep security hole issues also while answering this question). For example will it be OK if I add this line at the end of my .bashrc file:
/usr/local/texlive/2011/bin/i386-linux:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin/bin:/usr/games
What is the correct position where texlive PATH should go. (I realized simply adding the above line, /usr/local/texlive/2011/bin/i386-linux at the end of my .bashrc is not the correct way to do because this gives rise to executing common commands live vi or xemacs etc(PATH clash, command not found in suggested PATH)). Another doubt is related to the kernel, the command sudo uname -a gives me:
linux myname-desktop 2.6.32-33-generic #71 Ubuntu SMP wed Jul 20 17:31:40 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
Do you think the downloaded texlive will work since this relevant to i386-linux?

I'm setting up a svn server and would like users to share home dir. One problem is how to get sshd to identify the correct rsa key for the different users that shares the same .ssh folder. Will sshd even look for the key in a folder that isn't owned by the user trying to login?

having a bit of trouble getting domains to resolve to their own folder properly on my new server.
this is a plesk/centos server that is pretty much out of the box.
Problem I have is that all the domain names I add to Plesk, are all pulling files from /var/www/html . All 5 domains Ive added each got their own /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/* folders created ...
Is there something I am missing in order to have the server grab files from each domains respective folder?
What I noticed was that if I edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and add the virtualhost lines to it, then the one domain name resolves properly.
i replaced my domain with 'mydomain.com'
<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin youremail@yoursite.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/
ServerAlias mydomain.com *.mydomain.com
</virtualHost>

what is the correct process for updating an application installed via the './configure, make, make install' sequence?For example, I have an app checked out via a git repository, on which I run the 'make install' on to install. Then a few days later I run a git pull to update to the latest release, do I just run the same sequence again or should I 'make uninstall' first?

I have somehow managed to wreck the definitions /paths for my Home and Desktop. If I click on Places I now have a "Home Folder" displayed as "Open Your personal Folder", a "Desktop" displayed as "Open the contents of your Desktop in a folder" and a second "Home Folder" displays as "Open '/home/ian'"....and they all point to the same folder which is my personal user file "ian". This is kind of OK except that every file I have now gets displayed on my screen because "Desktop" has a view of these files. Is there any easy way to reset my file directory ? or do I have to backup my files and reinstall Ubuntu.

I am trying to zip a directory but when I zip and unzip it, it contains the whole path of the variable "album". I would just like to zip the last folder in the path. Here is what I have now. I tried basename but that didn't seem to work, possible I just can't make it work right.
Code:

i use virtual hosts to develop several web applications. These are located in my home folder under /home/user/projects/project After a fresh installation, i always get a 403 forbidden error. After googling and reading on this forum, several solutions are mentioned for this problem. But i can hardly believe putting using a chmod 755 on my home folder is a correct solution. What is the correct way of doing things in this situation?

I'm the server guy which is why I don't know this, but were staging a new webserver and we use some custom perl scripts and as were moving the site over for testing, apache is blowing a perl error;Can't locate web.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /home/mcp/htdocs/cgi-bin/newgraph.gif line 11.,Now I can copy that file local, but there are a bunch of things, so the question is how do you globally add a folder to the perl search path

im linux newbie and im trying to build a small cluster using suse 11 and run in parallel fortran by using MPI. I ve made all the preperation (network communication, ssh, sharing using samba etc). I can access the pc's through network, either with their IP's or their hostnames.Now i have to define in one pc (master node) a path to a shared folder where all other clusters will have full access. Usually in windows we can do this by using something like \hostnamesharefolder_name. This haven't work in linuxWhen i access the folder from another pc i.e through nautilus the path is smp:/hostname/sharefolder but i can't use such a path because i think don't recognize the smp:/ . Is there any way to define universal paths where the clusters will look for them in the network

I'm writing an application and want to make possible to compile it with or without an optional module. This module requires perl library to be compiled, so I want to check presence of it in 'autoconf'.
The problem exists because perl library is placed in 'non-standart' location itself (like a /usr/lib64/perl5/CORE/libperl.so). So when I try to run configure (with AC_CHECK_LIB or AC_SEARCH_LIBS), it cannot find and link libperl.so in its test.
Trying to pass ./configure CFLAGS=-L/usr/lib64/perl5/CORE/ or ./configure LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib64/perl5/CORE/
How can I define a location to search for configure's tests?
