Ubuntu :: Good Replacement For Windows Journal - To Be Able To Save And Load The Notes?
Jun 28, 2010
When I was using Windows, I would take notes in class on Windows Journal with my tablet. Now that Ubuntu 10.10 supports all my hardware out of the box,I'm planning on using that, but I'm looking for a good replacement for Windows Journal. I don't need compatibility with Windows, but I do need to be able to save and load the notes. Handwriting recognition isn't needed or really wanted, I just use it to draw graphs, formulas, and musical notation for various classes.I love Tomboy, if there's a version that supports touch, I'd love it, but really any app that allows me to draw sometimes and type sometimes and easily switch between the two.

I love foobar 2000 but I'm always trying to shy away from windows apps. What are your recommendations as "good" replacements for foobar 2000? So far I have tried:
Amarok - Crashes all the time, and keeps saying it can't play mp3s. Used to love this app, but seems broken for me now. Even if I reinstall it.
Rhythmbox - Great, but reports the wrong bitrate on all my songs. It is very important for me to know the correct bitrate for uploading to certain sites.
Audacious - Way to simple and winamp like.
Bangarang - No.

I LOVE Ubuntu,but the sketchiness with WIFI in Ubuntu is really frustrating (not that it's Ubuntu or GNU/Linux's fault necessarily). I'm trying to find a good WIFI card replacement for my girlfriend's MSI Wind u90, but seems both the Intel 3945abg and the Intel 4965agn - the cards usually recommended for that model - seem to be spotty at best in all recent versions of Ubuntu including the last long-term release. Has anyone had success with a Broadcom 1020 (in any laptop but especially in a netbook)?

Can anyone tell me what names the tomboy notes application gives to its notebooks and notes? Not the file format (xml) I found that on the web, but the filenames and directory where it stores things.

Our application uses a dynamically loaded shared object library (codec library) to compress and decompress audio streams.
There happens to be several static and global variables in this shared object library. Hence it is not possible to process two interleaved unrelated media streams using this shared object codec library because each stream corrupts/changes the contents of these static/global variables.
Is there a way through which a context save (save contents of data segment of shared object) and a context load (load previously saved contents of data segment of shared object)operation can be performed on the shared object library. This way the context for each media stream can be saved and loaded before and after processing the "other" media stream respectively.

I've been using Ubuntu for a couple of years and like it just fine. However I updated to Ubuntu 1010 and started downloading most recent updates and now when I turn on my machine the cursor just flashes and Ubuntu won't load up. I sent off and received a Ubuntu 1010 CD, but can't figure out how to load it up without loosing all my data from my previous Ubuntu. I think somehow my GRUB got corrupted, because I can still get the information when I look at it from a second harddrive that I also have Ubuntu on.

i have just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a pre installed windows 7 system. Ubuntu is working really well but the only problem is that when I try to boot into windows,
I get the windows sign and then I get a black screen and windows does not load. It seems to be an easy problem to solve because I can actually boot windows 7 in
safe mode with no problems at all! The problem is there when I try to boot windows 7 normally. To be honest I only need windows for a project that uses MSQL server.

I just finished working on my teacher's paper, which is due to her an hour ago... For 2 hours I've been trying to find my paper anywhere on ubuntu, or my windows installation. It is nowhere, anymore. The paper took me 4 hours to type up, and I JUST saved it onto my windows installation. The desktop of my user profile, to be exact. I restarted to windows to print it off, but it wasn't on my desktop. First reaction: FFUUU, wait backup. SO I went to my backup directory of linux. Guess what: Nothing there.... Any way of gettin my work back without retyping all 8 pages?

I am having a problem with a LibreOffice when saving or saving as to a Windows Share.
Configuration:
Network
Small office server running Windows. Mounted using the Gigolo manager (used without issue in version 10.10).
All of our contracts and proposals are on the server. I can open a contract in LibreOffice from the server.
(All documents I am working with are native openoffice formats, these were not MS file conversions.)
I open a document titled A_Libreoffice_test.odt from the contracts directory on the windows server. No problems. I save as A_Libreoffice_test_2.odt to the contracts directory on the Windows server and get this error box:
If I select all contents within my document and paste it into a new LibreOffice Writer file then save the new file to the contracts directory on my Windows server, it saves without any problems. However, should I open that very same file that I just created and try to save it after a change or save as without any change, I will receive the error again.
Of course copy and pasting textual contracts is one thing but we also do all of our proposals in OpenOffice Draw (LibreOffice Draw) which behaves the same way. The select all, copy/paste into a new document workaround is less attractive in Draw.
We have 5 Ubuntu machines in our office working with files on this server. For now, employees and I are having to save our documents and transfer them to the server nightly.
I did a test by booting into the MacOS where I am also running LibreOffice and did not experience the same problem.
Here is what I have tried so far:
1) Removing all libreoffice applications and files then reinstalling but that also did not solve the problem.
2) Disabling the firewall on our Windows server temporarily to test the save as function (no change).
3) Remove libreoffice and try to install OpenOffice (not successful).
4) Poured some scotch and posted this question here on the Ubuntu forum... hopefully this works

I'm still quite new on linux .. so please accept my question, even if I'm asking something stupid The fact is that I created some months ago a partition of 50 Gb to store my data and I used an ext3 filesystem with journal .. and the journal was about 1 Gb I thinkNow after a few months of usage I moved all my data to a new device and I noticed thapartition was completly emptied, in fact there was still about 10 Gb occupied.All data was moved away, so I think this might be the journal.
Now a few questions:1) Is it normal for a journal to occupy 1/5 of a device? 2) Is there a command or another way to free up the space occupied by the journal?3) Is there a better option in order of filesystem? Maybe it's better to use another one?I usually use ext3 for the system partition and for data storage partition,then I have a partition into where I store clonezilla images for backup purposesand I decided to use reiserfs for it in order to have more space available,even because it's always unmounted and I access onto it only for backup activities

I would like to see the journal of a file-system (ex. ext4) in action. What i mean is that, without knowing what kind of fs is on a partition, i want to test if this fs supports or not journaling.

Im using Ubuntu 10.04 64bits with external journal.
/dev/sda1 is the "/" partition.
/dev/sdb1 is the external journal
Everything is working fine, but if a new HD is added (like dev/sdc), I have a boot error, initramfs error!
Why this is happening? How can I add a new HD without error?

I would like to adjust the journal program called lifeograph. First I would like to build it, clean without any adjustments.
I'm using this version: [URL]
Readme file says:
Requirements
-----------
Lifeograph requires the following modules to be built:
* gtkmm,
* gconfmm,
* gtkspell, and
* gcrypt.
Installation
------------
Type "make" to build and "make install" to install (all without quotes). No configuration atm.
I tried make, but it doenst really work. So i think i dont have good requirements.
-> how do I install the required modules? -> I've found some in packet manager, but some appear to be librarys.

Whenever I try opening the Gnome Activity Journal from Applications > Accessories > Gnome Activity Journal, it doesn't open, nothing shows up, and not even in the System Monitor. So I took a different route, by opening it from the Terminal, to see if it gave me anything, and when I type in 'gnome-activity-journal' it spits this out at me:
