I've loaded it as dual boot with Windows XP & I'm now trying to find equivalents for some Windows utilities. I have found two possible replacements for allway sync but how do I install them? One is Synkron and the other is FreeFileSync both downloadable from sourceforgenet. But they come as packages, one as a tar.gz and one as a zip. What do I do now? In Windows there is an .exe or install file.

View 4 Replies View RelatedOnce more I am playing with Linux. First it was Mandrake on an 386/33 box. Then Ubuntu 8.04 on an Athlon 64 box. And now Ubuntu 10.04 on an Athlon 64 Black. In Windows, there are beaucoup utilities, such as disk cleanup, dupe file finder, et cetera. I already know to NOT defrag a Linux HDD. Is there a need for any of the more common Windows disk utilities in Linux? FWIW - If I don't run Norton Utilities, CCleaner, and Glary Utilities regularly in Win7, I endup with gigabytes (yes, gigabytes) of trash files.

VBox 4.1.18_Debian r78361
Ext.Pack 4.1.18 r78361
Can use a WIN XP appliance (from my old PCLinuxOS) as guest there without any issues.
Added a second guest - Jessie 8.0 KDE 64 bit. Works, but no seamless display, mouse issue ...
So added inside guest:
non-X11 guest utilities + X11 guest utilities from the repositories
(These utilities are meant to be run inside the the virtual machine. They provide closer integration ...)
I simply don't know, how to run those utilities ...
What I get is
Code: Select all# systemctl --failed
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION
● virtualbox-guest-utils.service loaded failed failed LSB: VirtualBox Linux Additions
● virtualbox-guest-x11.service loaded failed failed LSB: VirtualBox Linux X11 Additions
LOAD = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.
2 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.

Same situation as in #1.

I have a system recovery partition on my drive. It's size is 1.4gb. I'm supposed to be able to boot to it but the MBR got rewritten a few times already I think. Maybe GRUB can get me to boot to it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently installed ubuntu 9.10. I have been trying to launch utilities and other programs that have .exe extensions by double clicking the .exe file. Each time I attempt this I get the following error message in archive manager:
[Code]...
I'm not very sure when this issue started. Anyway, the system finally boots and I haven't had any further problems, but I somehow notice the booting to be a bit slower since this error appeared and I don't like watching the red letters that say "failed" every time I switch the computer on. I googled this before posting it, and other users have had this issue, but the solutions that worked for them didn't work for me.
This is the content of my /etc/network/interfaces file:

standard Linux installation utilities split the root file-system and the home file-system on two separate but relatively equal-sized partitions? For example, when I put fedora on an 80GB disk, it automatically gave the root file-system 32GB and home 30GB and the swap 8GB of space. However, since my home file-system has a directory with 28GB of files in it, why is my root file-system reading 100% usage? Is the home FS overlaid on top of the root FS? Is there an advantage to doing this? I just made a boot partition (50mb or so), a root partition (90% of the disk space) and a swap (4%-5% disk space).

View 14 Replies View RelatedI received a popcorn hour set top box for Xmas, and I am trying to figure out the best way to convert my extensive DVD collection to MKV files to play on the PCH.
I know I could just create an ISO of the DVD, but that would take up 4-8 gig per movie, where from what I've read, MKV offers GREAT audio and video quality at a fraction of the space.
Is there any software packages out there for linux that would allow me to rip my DVD's to MKV? if so, will they allow me to just rip the movie part of the disc, and not the extra's or menu?
Is there any easy-to-use program for ubuntu like handbrake or autogk for windows?
Or which software do you think is the best for creating avi or mkv files on linux?
I have tried a few methods and have not been able to burn a dvd yet. I can create the files that would go on the dvd. I first created a slide show using OpenShot. I saved it as a avi. First off, is this the correct format? Also, I have other files from other methods that end in .mov. Is this the correct format?
Can I combine the two formats of .avi and .mov on the same dvd ( have not even gotten to this point yet, but figured I might as well ask up front )? To burn the dvd, I tried qdvdauthor. It crashed on me after I autogrouped two files. Also, I tried k3b and DeVeDe. I was able to create files, but I still could not get them onto a dvd. I tried to take the files from k3b and DeVeDe and create a DVD in Brasero. Brasero just closes. No error, no success message.
How do I get files on a dvd in Ubuntu? I would even be happy with tutorials or links of software that was worked. Also, I will don't know how to get an audio cd burned in Ubuntu yet.
I'm trying to create a DVD with K3b, I encoded a DIVx MP4 file to vob, but i need to create the iFO and BUP files if that is correct? is it possible in any way to create iFO & BUP files?

creating a new website project in the var/www folder. I open jedit and try to save a folder or file inside var/www using jedt and it refuses to let me create or save anythink in the var/www directory.
I have used the terminal to create a new folder and file inside the var/www directory and when i open the file with jedit or gedit and write some code into it it wont save the code either. I am used to just creating a new directory and saving files into it with ease using windows so this is puzzling me a little. I also installed lamp server through the terminal and the phpmyadmin folder installed somewhere different from the var/www file.
I am running the new Natty install of Ubuntu. I always seem to have this particular problem, particularly with any ubuntu/kubuntu installs, but not other distros.
Basically, I'm trying to run a program -- a text-based game server. The server needs to be able to create new folders and write and delete files within its own directories in order to work.
However, no matter what I try to set in permissions, the program always spits out errors saying it was denied. I have set the directories so that any user/program can write/delete in them, and it still doesn't work.
i was wondering if there is someway on my ubuntu server to create and edit .php files? Sorry if it is a nooby question.
