Ubuntu :: Make All Future Extractions In Par With Autodelete Feature?
Aug 21, 2010
I downloaded a file enclosed in 58 rar parts and extracted them. I was looking for a way which would enable autodelete of all rar-archives after the extraction so I don't have to clean the mess up later. I hear there is some option in command line arguments but that doesn't work with split archives. Is there a way in GUI? Some option maybe, which I could check to make all the future extractions in par with autodelete feature?

I have Soad Linux installed. E17 environment really works fast for me. But I have a question, how do the one make window manager to be more feature filled? For example other e17 Linux distributions has a full path of file directory on the window tools frame so you can simply click on any directory from this list like "Home/Media/Movies" and you are brought back to the selected directory (Home for example). I managed to find how to enable it, but that section of windows manager doesn;t seem to work well, it is too small horizontally so in order to see other directories the one has to click small arrows and scroll. Resizing doens;t allow to make it bigger, how could I fix that?.
Also how do the one make the mounted mediums list on the left, similar like in gnome windows manager? I found a control panel which lets you choose between KDE, Gnome and LXDE (I think) for e17 But changing between them doesn't seem to change anything. Yes I rebooted the pc so it could take the effect, but no changes were made.

Code:
Launch tempdeb.iso inside of a vmware machine. It goes thru the first 3 options, then it starts looking at the cd and says: Incorrect CD-ROM detected The CD-ROM drive contains a CD which cannot be used for installation. Please insert a suitable CD to continue with the installation. I can boot and install the original ISO just fine.

Does anyone know what happened to the Multiseat feature that had been in the feature list at one point?To briefly summarise, a single machine with multiple graphics cards, sound cards, keyboards & mice provides multiple seats for users. Each user gets their own monitor, keyboard, mouse & perhaps audio. The rest of the machine resources are then shared.
The last I saw on the topic was this discussion, although I have a recollection that there was going to be support in a newer version of X.Org. I've googled around quite a bit, but can't seem to find anything.
Anybody know anything? It would be a great feature to have and it's frustrating to have had such an omission since F8 :-o

I have a few questions related to the 'Save Session for Future Login' option you can check (and is checked by default) when you go to shutdown/restart/etc.
1) What exactly does checking this option and shutdown/restarting do?
2) Is there any way to have it unchecked by default?
3) Is there any way to completely remove the option?

I am considering buying a netbook and installing the netbook remix from a bootable USB. During the installation, does the installer give me the option to create a dual boot scenario and keep the windows 7 as a partition? If it does not, what is the best way to clone the windows 7 install and can I put it on a usb to boot and install from in the future?

After the Nokia-Microsoft deal, the future of Qt doesn't look very bright. Many developers think that Nokia has no interest in Qt for the desktop. [URL] And since KDE is based on Qt, and KDE is the (sort of) default desktop environment for Slackware.

I'd like to find out if it's possible to download and store (not install) official Ubuntu installation files, and then choose to install them whenever. I don't always have internet available and having to be connected every time I want to install a program really sucks. What happens if I had to format or something and I just wanna install all my programs again but no internet connection? Is there also away I can back up my Ubuntu and when I restore, I get all my downloaded and installed programs back, without having to re-install?

I'm going round everyone I know installing Ubuntu on their computers whether they like it or not, and I must say so far they all like it except. I have to spend 5 hours downloading and installing all the software they need to make their system run 'as good as windows'.
I really need a whole bunch of popular programmes to put on a disk and install as I go. I know Ubuntu saves the downloads in a repository on the hard drive, but looking at it I am sometimes at a loss as to which folders contain which downloads, then there is the problem of multiple folders for one programme etc.or point me in the direction of a zipped up file with all the programmes a normal user might need.

i am currently running 9.10 and was thinking of upgrading to 10.10. i was going to initally install 10.10 but i saw that it ran fluendo. does that mean the ubuntu restricted extras aren't in the future versions? i was also wondering if i would have to reinstall all my old programs.

I just switched to a faster isp with monthly usage limits. When I install a program using Synaptic, where are the install files stored? I'd like to save them for future use. Also, I'm downloading Conky right now to monitor usage.

One of the things I dislike about gnome is the fact that some bugs seem to exist forever, eloquently described here fore example: [URL]. Now, that gnome 3 is there; I am wondering: should I expect that there will much work on the 2.x side? Or will more and more bugs go "fixed with gnome3"? Is this a realistic thought?

I have a F14 laptop being used as a music server. For some reason the clock time runs fast and slowly drifts forward about 5 minutes/day.
ntpd is running. The ntpd.conf is pretty much F14 out of the box and the same as my other F14 instances that do not exhibit this problem. If I restart ntpd, it syncs up the time, but then the time slips until the ntpd seems to give up.
Initially ntpd reports it is synched,but then over time it reports being unsynchronized.
Shortly after restart:
Code:
ntpdc> sysinfo
system peer: w1-wdc.ipv4.got-root.me.uk
system peer mode: client
leap indicator: 11
stratum: 4

I just set up an VPS with ubuntu. I made a user1 and gave it ownership
Code:
chown -R user1 /home/www
This user also have been given all the root privileges (I know it is not recommended!)
The problem is that each time I make new site, and user1 wants to upload (through ftp) files to /home/www/newsite I need to redo the the above command in order to be enable user1 to upload. Not only this, I need to rework permissions (744 for folders and 644 for files), otherwise the newsite throws permission errors message.

All I see from googling examples in awk is converting current date. How do I convert a list of past or future dates for example :
Jan18'09
Aug 7'98
Jun20'11
Apr 1'10
I will be using it to compare dates in a file and act on it accordingly.

When I installed 10.10 I uninstalled gwibber, empathy and ubuntuone. Twice now in Update Manager I've subsequently found gwibber on the list of possible updates. Is there a way to tell Update Manager not to include in future some programs, which I've uninstalled and don't want?

Since open office is now bought by oracle I am confused about the state of the latest version of OO version 3.2 I think. Would it be legal to install that version on a computer. Oracle perhaps made a bummer with this. The real dev community is thrown out and we are again looking at corporate greed taking precedence for their own profit rather than development of technology. I have high hopes from libre office but then one more open source product (it was not sun's to begin with remember) being swallowed by a corporate.

I'm having a problem with the time on one of my servers jumping forward into the future. We run serveral CentOS 5.4 servers running Xen, some up to date and some a little older. The one in question is running 2.6.18-164.el5xen, with xen-libs-3.0.3-94.el5_4.2 and xen-3.0.3-94.el5_4.2. On this server are several Xen virtual machines, also running CentOS 5.4 with kernel 2.6.18-164.el5xen. One in particular has problems with the clock keeping proper time.
We use NTP (ntpd) to sync time to a central server in the company. Our NTP set-up works fine, and we have problems on only a couple of servers out of many. The problem I see is that one one particular Xen virtual machine, the clock will suddenly jump forward into the future, usually by several minutes but once by more than an hour. This has obvious implications for software running on the machine. Software such as Oracle grid control agent will restart itself under the (incorrect) assumption that it has been hung for several minutes with no activity. Oracle database will cope gracefully, but applications that refer to the clock will be confused.
We detect these time jumps because we have Nagios checking the clock on each host against the centralised time server (Nagios's check_ntp plugin). Nagios will suddenly report a clock offset that is miles into the future. Following the time jump, ntpd on the host in question will re-sync the time. Ntpd keeps the time steady, ticking just a few milliseconds per second until real time catches up with the server. i.e. Nagios will report the time as being 10 minutes ahead, then a minute later the host will be 9 minutes ahead, and then a further minute later the host will be 8 minutes ahead of real time. The clock on the host stays running very slow until it eventually is correct.

I want to run Ubuntu Server Edition just at home, however to avoid having to reinstall it in the future when i upgrade hardware, I was thinking of virtualizing it first. Are there any minimalistic virtualisation solutions available at the moment for this sort of purpose? Or even better a linux distro just for this?

Is there any reasonable alternative to Smeegol/MeeGo for small laptops (exception made for Ubuntu)? I had a look to Android on Netbook but it doesn't really seem a serious option - to me (but may be i didn't catch its sense (?) ).Small footnote: I, for one, as a person which has to deal a lot with text, i need a device with a keyboard and as elegant and smart many tablets are i do not believe in a "Newton" + attached keyboard So, for mobile, Netbook or small laptop (subnotebook) are a must. And i'd like a - linux based - surface which optimzes the screen space and ressources.
