Further, are any of the files within this folder necessary or can I delete them to free up some space (the specific file I mentioned in the title is taking up 1.4 GB)?
View 1 RepliesI have a UUID file that has grown to 8.4 gigs... and I don't know what to do. Its sucking up all the free space in the partition. I guess I will have to delete the file but I don't know how to do it properly.I suspect this is a backup of all the data I have been moving around between drives recently.

I am looking for a way to set a default for new users for the akonadi mysql.conf file that is created for each user for the akonadi database. Usually this file contains a inno_db_log_file_size of 64MB. Because of this the database eats up 64MB storage even if its still empty. I would like to decrease this size globally for each "new" user since we have very tight storage restrictions on our NFS home directories now. And 64MB make up already have the quota each user has. So this is to much. where is this default mysql.conf file taken from?
I found hints that there used to be a /usr/share/config/akonadi/mysql-global.conf file that was simply copied but I cannot find such a file on my 11.4 system. It seems things have changed. how akonadis user specific mysql.conf file in ~/.local/share/akonadi/ is generated for a new user? How can I use my own template file here?

I have two servers. One of them has a svn server running and another hosting projects.
I have a daily cronjob updating the projects -- ie running svn update, rebuild etc.
Now, my cronjob on the remote server works.
However, a similar cronjob running on the local server for local projects (ie the same server as svn) is instead displaying a "svn: not working copy".
I double checked the paths, permissions and user info and if the script is launched manually, it works fine.
Deploying the same thing remotely works.
I even tried using file:/// (suggested here http://www.hightekhosting.com.au/myaccount/knowledgebase/90/Using-SubversionorSVN-on-cPanel-Servers.html) but still nothing.

I have a large (114GB) music collection, collected over the years and stored on NAS. Various sources and formats from my MS days and .ogg and .flac recently. Having just upgraded from Ubuntu 10.10 using Rythmbox and having some spare time on my hands I thought I'd get some of my collection in order. The music is organised into various categories in a directory on the NAS: /music/category/artist/album_name/ where category divides things up into styles like Classical, Reggae, Soundtracks, French, and a ubiquitous "General" category
There are 5 or 6 computers attached to the network, all running linux/banshee and reasonably in step with each other. 2 of them have the full set of categories on, one is my main PC, the other is connected to the Hi Fi, the others have various usages and a subset of categories on. There could be an update to the metadata (scoring and/or track and artist info) from any one of the PCs, but probably only from 3 of the machines. I have seen some options in edit>preferences which seem to write metadata and scores to files but cannot find anything in the user guide on how to exploit these. Is there a way to sync (and merge) the metadata from each of the machines so I'm not rewriting it on every machine, depending on the size of the files can this be done using the preferences by writing back to the NAS or using something such as dropbox to keep them synced.
What command would you use to read about the sync system call (not the sync command)? How would you read a local man page for sync that was kept in the /usr/local/share/man?

I have two external USB drives, that I need to mount at boot. I have been using /etc/fstab up until now, with the following entries:
Code:
However, as I gather from doing searches is quite common, occasionally I get an error during boot (causing the system to drop to a recovery shell) because the USB drives take time to wake up and the system hasn't found them by the time it reads /etc/fstab.
From doing searches, it seems there is nothing you can do to fstab to fix this, so you need to mount them using an rc.local script instead, using:
Code:
The problem is, as I have two USB drives, their /dev/sdxx location changes between boots. I thus want to use UUID codes as I do in fstab, however I haven't found anything about this.
Does anyone know how I can use the mount command and UUID to mount a drive in rc.local and what options I have to use the mount the drive with the same options that I am using in my fstab entry? Obvisouly, I can't refer back to fstab using the mount command, because then I will still get the boot error issue if they are listed in fstab. And there is no space internally for the USB drives as there is already two internal drives.
I have a Dell PowerEdge 1650 server with 3 NICs in it. I am trying to use one NIC (eth0) to connect to the internet, the second NIC (eth1) to share the internet connection to a LAN, and the third NIC (eth2) to connect to the LAN.
It is running Ubuntu server 8.10
The problem that I'm having is that NetworkManager (version 0.7.0) keeps setting eth2 as the default connection, and then I don't get any internet at all from the server.
My main goal is to be able to share files from the server to computers on the LAN. The secondary goal is to have a virtual machine hosting a Halo server, connected through eth2, so that it can host LAN games. But that is a secondary goal after I get the connections to work.
I've been looking around and finding other people who have done bits and pieces of this, but not the whole thing. I had been hoping to simply use the NetworkManger, but I don't mind editing config files.
Also I can't seem to find any good instructions on editing the /etc/network/interfaces file. The man file is incomplete, and everything seems to point back to the man file.
Installed Ubuntu along with Debian on my Notebook and use Grub Manager to choose between them on startup. Since i like Debian now a lot (in past days it was a very hard system to handle, but there has been some progress i noticed), i have to change some things (want Debian as main system now) For Ubuntu i have: (was meant to be main system on Notebook) "/", "/home" and a "swap" partition, but since i am now going to use mainly Debian, i wanted to store my files all in the "/home"-folder of my extended Ubuntu partition (has much more space available) not in the "/home" folder of the Debian system. So i want both (Debian and Ubuntu) to use the same extended partition ("/home") which i created for Ubuntu to save their files like downloads, videos, and so on.

I have a separate ext4 partition which contains all my data (music, movies, etc). When I delete files from this partition it is very slow because it copies files from my data partition to the Trash folder in my home partition. How can I avoid this? Can't the trash be configured so that it uses a trash folder in each partition instead of copying files to another partition (which is slow).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed Ubuntu 10.10 (64 bit) on a Dell Precision 670 desktop that I share with another user. The OS is installed on a 160GB disk, which also has the /home folders. There is also a second internal disk (1TB) which has shared files (music, pictures, etc).
How can I configure Ubuntu such that either person can read or write to this shared disk? Right now, if someone is logged into the PC, the disk can be mounted, but then it is not available to the other person.

Is there a "correct" way to set up a shared folder between two local users using only EXT4 that will allow both users read & write access to everything in the folder?
Here's my scenario: My wife and I use the same computer. I want two separate user accounts (mine and hers), but I want ~/Music to point to the same location for both users so that I don't have to duplicate all of the files.
Too protect the innocent, I'll use Jack and Jill.
So say Jack downloads or rips an album:
"/home/jack/Music/Radiohead/Ok Computer"
I want Jill to be able to able to create a folder:
"/home/jill/Music/Radiohead/Hail To The Theif"
I know the basics of symlinks so I can get /home/jack/Music and /home/jill/Music to point to the same place. I also have Jack & Jill in the same group.
The problem I'm having with my test setup is when Jack creates "/home/jack/Radiohead", it is set up to where Jill can read, but not write. So she can play songs from Ok Computer, but if she wants to download Kid A, she has to go in and manually change the permissions on Radiohead first.
Also, while I might set up multiple directories this way, what I DON'T want is for Jack to be able to modify /home/jill/otherdir where otherdir is just a regular directory set up with default permissions.
Oh, and as an added bonus, it would be nice to set up another account (i.e. a "guest") with limited permissions that can read, but not write/modify.
I would like to configure my system to do the following. Previous versions of ubuntu did some of this but now I cant seem to get this working.
1.Browse other Ubuntu systems on the local network by default. Avahi is install on my systems but they cant see each other.
2.From the GDM screen log into another PC. I had this set up in the past so from my laptop I could log into my server almost like terminal services. How do I set this up again?
3.Share files on the local network easily. How do share file with other pc on the network if I don�t want to use samba? What happen to NFS in Ubuntu?
I've got Samba up and running with the correct workgroup information, and I can access files on my network share, but I can't figure out a way to point Thunderbird to a network folder to import my old local folders. Is there any way to do this? Do I need to some how map the location so Thunderbird thinks it is physically on the local machine? If so, how would one do that?

I have a computer, the one I am on now, with Ubuntu 10.10, it should be completely updated... and I can network with other computers, I can access Windows XP and 7 shared locations on other computers, and I can also get Ubuntu on other computers to access this computer's shared files.What I can't do, however, is share my hardrives that are on this computer, I have tried sharing them in /media/ and etc, but it is not working, apparently you have to mount them in some mystical way.
Another problem is getting Windows machines to access Ubuntu computers on the network - which I believe is a Windows problem, so I can figure that out some other time, but importantly, I want to be able to share my hardrives over the network.
If someone can give me some instructions to mounting and sharing hardrives(internal), and even my DVD-Drives, and portable USB devices, would also be fantastic - since, in Windows you can just right click, "share", and it's done.. It is a very useful thing to have, and I don't want to use Windows on this computer anymore, but I have no choice, really, if I can't share my storage to the other computers.
