This account should be limited to access only the necessary directories on the machine. I setup the following account but nothing happens when I try to log into it:</p>
<pre><code>:~$ groupadd -g 1005 webgroup
//I then changed the group and permissions of a current user I had already created
:~$ sudo usermod -g 1005 -s /bin/false -d /home/webuser/ webuser
</code></pre>
<p>When trying to login using this account I enter the username [webuser] and the password but it just redirects me back to the login: prompt. I tried resetting the password but still have the same problem.</p>
<p>Can someone either tell me what I'm doing wrong, or suggest another method that would achieve the same result (if not a better one).</p>
<p>It sounds like I do not want the user to be able to login at all. However, (my grasp on this concept is apparently very small so bear with me) doesn't the user have to be logged in for web requests to be received by that user? In other words, web requests are received and interpreted by the user who is logged in at that time (correct?). If this is a continuously running server and is always turned on in our server room, then shouldn't the logged in user be my 'webuser' I just created in order to limit access to individuals trying to hack in?</p>

<p>3) bash < <( curl <a href="http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/releases/rvm-install-head" rel="nofollow">http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/releases/rvm-install-head</a> )</p>
<p>4) echo '[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"' >> ~/.bashrc</p>
<p>5) (close and reopen terminal window)</p>
<p>6) rvm notes</p>
<p>(looked for: "For Ruby (MRI & ree) you should install the following OS dependencies:"</p>
<p>and did:</p>
<p>7) sudo aptitude install build-essential bison openssl libreadline6 libreadline6-dev curl git-core zlib1g zlib1g-dev libssl-dev libyaml-dev libsqlite3-0 libsqlite3-dev sqlite3 libxml2-dev libxslt-dev autoconf libc6-dev ncurses-dev</p>
<p>Now we can install ruby by doing:</p>
<p>8) rvm install 1.9.2</p>
<p>Then we tell rvm to use it:</p>
<p>9) rvm 1.9.2</p>
<p>And to do it always:</p>
<p>10) rvm --default use 1.9.2</p>
<p>With ruby properly instaled we can now:</p>
<p>11) gem install capistrano</p>
<p>And then:</p>
<p>12) gem install railsless-deploy</p>
<p>Despite all those steps being successful steps, when I do:
cap -T </p>
<p>I'm unable to see the deploy tasks listed as expected.</p>
<p>I only getting:
cap invoke
cap shell</p>

<p>Currently, the settings dialogs for Thinkorswim are ridiculously big. Output from xwininfo shows that the window is 895x13037. There is no Minimize/Maximize buttons in the title bar.</p>
<p>I'm on 10.10 using Gnome with Metacity + Compiz. Dual monitors off an Nvidia 9800GT.</p>
<p>Things I've tried:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Setting window size rules in Compiz for the window type specified when you "grab" the window.</p></li>
<li><p>Force resizing using wmctrl (i.e.<code>$wmctrl -i -r 0x04a0373c -e 0,0,0,895,895)
</code></p></li>
<li>Alt+click and moving to the bottom of the window to resize for lowe-right corner, but there is no resize cursor.</li>
</ol>
<p>Any other possibilities? I thought the swing toolkit just used the system's look and feel to size windows, so I'm stumped. Should I just contact the developer?</p>

31412 | 1 | 31434 | 2011-03-22T01:57:59.177 | 6 | 13208 | <p>I have an Ubuntu Desktop edition virtual machine and I would like to access it via ssh remotely but if I'm not logged onto the virtual machine I cannot access it remotely via ssh. Only when I'm logged onto the virtual machine's ubuntu, can I access it remotely. Is there a way around this? </p>
<p>Is this the ubuntu vm's configuration, or the virtual box's, or...?</p>
<p>Thank you so much!</p>

<p>All's well and the boot goes fine, except instead of my automatic login to desktop, I'm at the default login screen. I can see my normal username, except my password now doesn't work (showing in a split second Authentication Failed or something similar then returning to the user list). Clicking Automatic Login on the menu just flashes nothing and returns to the user list. </p>
<p>Trying to login through tty doesn't work either.</p>
<p>Does anyone know how I could fix this and login as my normal user again?</p>

I'm converting from Windows to Ubuntu, and the last piece of the puzzle is installing a substitute for Microsoft Money; e.g. KmyMoney. I have installed KMyMoney 1.0.4 using KDE 3.5.10 from the repositories but there is a more recent version available from the KMyMoney website (4.5.3 for Platform KDE4). From SPM, it looks like I have installed KDE libs 4c2a (which I assume is KDE4)</p>
<p>I've tried "Software Sources/other sources" and added a PPA site but it didn't work. What is the correct specific procedure for downloading this other software? And on a related question, what is the difference between the KDE desktop and the standard gnome desktop, and, if I install KDE4, how do I select one or the other at boot? Can I run KMyMoney in gnome (do I need KDE)? Thanks</p>

And by everything I mean everything.... i hear every tap on the touchpad... I hear how HDD works. It is pretty anoying. My laptop is Samsung R580, I'm using 10.10 with 2.6.36-28 kernel. If U need any more info just ask. Thx for any help!</p>
<p>P.S. this may be connected with another unresolved problem I have: <a href="https://askubuntu.com/questions/28452/squeak-after-lid-close">Squeak after lid close</a></p>
<p>P.P.S. sometimes without without headphones when I tap the microphone I hear the "tap" in the speakers </p>

<p>So anyway i noticed usb_modeswitch does not support it. The details are as follows:</p>
<p>before switching: 19d2:1224
after switching: 19d2:0082</p>
<p>So the question is how to switch this modem? which I will provide as an answer.</p>

<p>I am ready to stop using unity because I find having the Launcher on the left side too distracting. I use Windows 7 Taskbar on the right side of the screen and really like this. But I can't stand having OS controls on my left margin.</p>
<p>How do I move the Launcher to the right side? I'm not going to be able to keep using Unity if the launcher has to be on the left side.</p>

I believe I was trying to replace an openGL driver with another using command line and now somehow I have no driver at all :(</p>
<p>When I run Briquolo it runs at about 2fps. Just did that as a test so it seems I can run OpenGL stuff, just extremely poorly, which suggests my graphics card is pretty much redundant in my machine.</p>
<p>Is there a program or package I can run to check/reinstall it?</p>

<p>As it is now (and by default in any Ubuntu installation) a gdm login screen is presented after a few minutes of booting. After I log in, it's possible to use the "Switch user" functionality and have a second Gnome session running (for another reason). Then, both sessions are accessible by pressing <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>F7</kbd> and <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>F8</kbd>.</p>
<p>Moreover it would be great if both sessions used different settings (different users) for automatic logging in.</p>

Especially when listening to podcasts, and using it as an example, the sound might have loud moments and quiet moments, one person speaking loud and the other speaking very quiet in the same episode. Thereby, I always wanted the sound to be compressed system-wide, and I just noted the other day, that in Windows, some Realtek drivers already offer this function.</p>
<p>We have already a pulseaudio plugin for equalization system-wide, and although it still has problems like not letting us change its values and listen the change in real time, or cracking the sound while changing pulse volume, I do love it and use it. Now I'm just missing something to keep the sound around 0db (or near the volume level you're using) as a leveler plugin for pulseaudio.</p>
<p>Any suggestion?</p>

You'll need to install it first:</p>\n\n<pre><code>sudo apt-get install hardinfo\n</code></pre>\n\n<p>You then just run it from the same terminal with <code>hardinfo</code>. I don't know that it has a menu location by default. </p>\n\n<p>But it can give you slightly more information (boots, available kernels, etc) than the other options, as well as giving you similar lists of PCI and USB hardware like the first two commands.</p>\n\n<p>It also provides some simple benchmarking. I think the developers aim to make it a replacement for Sandra (a popular Windows hardware information gathering tool).</p>\n\n<p>It even has options to output a nice report that you can send to somebody (though it can easily be <em>too much</em> information).</p></li>\n</ul>\n\n<p><img src=\"https://i.stack.imgur.com/GF1jw.png\" alt=\"Hardinfo\"></p>\n",

<p>Initially, I had mistakenly created <code>Silver Spoon</code> as the mount location for <code>/dev/sda2</code> and it was not booting Ubuntu. Then I fixed the problems by changing the <code>fstab</code> file contents by booting from a LiveCD and mounting the drive on <code>/mnt/*</code>.</p>
<p><strong>PROBLEMS NOW</strong> </p>
<ol>
<li><p>When I look at the contents under <code>/media</code>, they are:</p>
<p>jatin@jatin-ubuntu:~$ cd /media/<br>
jatin@jatin-ubuntu:/media$ ls<br>
<strong>Fun Jatin Masti</strong> sda2 sda3 sda5 sda7 sdc1 Silver Silver Spoon
<strong>Study</strong> Windows7</p></li>
</ol>
<p>With issues in all the directories in <strong>bold</strong>. When I open Silver or Silver Spoon, nothing shows up. </p>
<ol>
<li><p>Some of my <code>ntfs</code> drives get auto-mounted in READ-ONLY Mode, while others get auto-mounted in correct(READ-WRITE) mode. </p></li>
<li><p>When I try to open my external hard drive, it says only root can mount it and a user can't. I know this can be fixed by simply removing the line for <code>/dev/sdc1</code> from the <code>fstab</code> file. </p></li>
</ol>
<p><strong>QUESTIONS</strong> </p>
<ol>
<li><p>Are both these <code>fstab</code> and <code>fstab.BAK</code> files important? Shouldn't just one be there?</p></li>
<li><p>How can I get my system in it's previous state, before I installed <code>pysdm</code>?</p></li>
<li><p>When should I uninstall <code>pysdm</code>, before editing the <code>fstab</code> file or after?</p></li>

<p>Say I rip a CD to MP3, tag it properly (typically both ID3v2.4 and ID3v1.1 tags) with Picard and/or Puddletag, then move it to my Music directory so it is synced with U1. The files will all sync, but 1 or 2 tracks off each album will show up as "Unknown Artist" in the Android application. It doesn't matter if I wait minutes or days, the tags never get scanned or fixed. </p>
<p>The only thing that works is moving the affected files to another folder temporarily then moving them back so they are uploaded again.</p>
<p>Now this isn't a showstopper, but it's an annoyance that I have to re-sync probably 10-20% of my music because the tags aren't scanned properly on the first try. This has happened consistently since I first signed up for the service last year.</p>
<p>Is this a known issue or do I seem to be the only one affected?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I used Picasa to organize my pictures on Windows, now on Ubuntu I would like to use a more native application than running Picasa on Wine.
There is a lot of applications out there, but none of these seems to be able to import all my pictures and organize it in the hierarchy I arranged them in with folders and subfolder like Picasa does it.</p>
<p>Is there an application, preferably for the GNOME desktop that can do this?</p>

And I have chosen encrypted home folder. Now on same machine I have installed 10.04 (LTS) with choosing new /boot on same sda1, / on same sda2 (ext4) and <strong>sda3(home) left untouched</strong> from earlier install. </p>
<p>My problem is that now I cant access/mount my previous home with <strong>ecryptfs-mount-private</strong>
util with the passphrase of earlier home user. Here is the ERROR: <em>Encrypted private directory is not setup properly.</em>
I have also installed btrfs utilities.</p>
<p>So are there any solutions/workarounds to gain access to $home on different partition.</p>

31691 | 1 | 31781 | 2011-03-23T16:56:06.177 | 5 | 268 | <p>I'm running Ubuntu 10.10, and am trying to add the <a href="https://stackapps.com/questions/83/stackapplet-stackoverflow-meets-the-gnome-desktop">StackApplet</a> to the panel.</p>
<p>The steps I'm following are, just to be sure I'm not doing something obviously wrong:</p>
<ol>
<li>Right-click on the top panel</li>
<li>Click 'Add to Panel'</li>
<li>Select 'StackApplet' from the menu dialogue that appears.</li>
</ol>
<p>Doing this causes a small, roughly 1px<sup>2</sup>, grey square to be added to the panel, but with no indication of <em>why</em> the StackApplet isn't responding/loading. I've tried adding to the panel, then restarting <code>gdm</code> and also adding to the panel and then restarting the system. Neither approach seemed to achieve anything.</p>
<p>I've also completely removed/purged, and then reinstalled, StackApplet via Synaptic in the hope that might fix any dependency issues, to no avail..</p>
<p>Obviously there is further information needed to answer this question, but at this stage I don't know enough about <em>what</em> information might be needed, or, in most cases, how to <em>find</em> it. I'll do my best to add any information requested in comments, though, to try and solve this.</p>
<p>My thanks in advance, for any and all help and guidance anyone can offer...</p>

31717 | 1 | null | 2011-03-23T19:02:15.947 | 3 | 7604 | <p>I recently shifted from Windows (Windows7) to Ubuntu (10.10) 64 bit. After installation I performed the usual updates and I received a new kernel version (2.6.35-28-generic).</p>
<p>After that I read the post on the address mentioned below:</p>
<pre><code>http://osdir.com/ml/ubuntu-users/2011-03/msg00932.html

<p>to remove the additional kernel versions from the grub (& my system as I don't want to keep them).</p>
<p>Now when update the grub using the below mentioned shell command:</p>
<pre><code>sudo update-grub

<p>I get the following result:</p>
<pre><code>cat: /boot/grub/video.lst: No such file or directory

<p>Now I don't know what is the meaning of:</p>

<p>I"ve ran the following, and it seems to install the correct applications:</p>
<pre><code>sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
</code></pre>
<p>However, when i run <code>easy_install sqlalchemy</code> or <code>easy_install pysqlite3</code>, it doesn't work.</p>
<p>I get the following error message:</p>
<pre><code>install_dir /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/
error: can't create or remove files in install directory
The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
installation directory:
[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/test-easy-install-1674.pth'
The installation directory you specified (via --install-dir, --prefix, or
the distutils default setting) was:
/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/
Perhaps your account does not have write access to this directory? If the
installation directory is a system-owned directory, you may need to sign in
as the administrator or "root" account. If you do not have administrative
access to this machine, you may wish to choose a different installation
directory, preferably one that is listed in your PYTHONPATH environment
variable.
For information on other options, you may wish to consult the
documentation at:
http://packages.python.org/distribute/easy_install.html
Please make the appropriate changes for your system and try again.

<p>But when i looked on the nvidia site to download drivers they don't have any linux drivers for this card... <a href="http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us" rel="nofollow">http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us</a></p>
<p>Will i be able to use this video card in ubuntu?</p>

31792 | 1 | 31796 | 2011-03-24T00:04:43.840 | 2 | 428 | <p>I've created new ssh keys on my dev box a while ago. I did:</p>
<p>ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "myemail@mail.com"</p>
<p>I copy the key to my shared host.</p>
<p>Now I need to connect using the credentials on the key right ?</p>
<p>What should I write on the command line, in order to connect by using those credentials now?</p>
<p>Please advice, I'm a little lost here.</p>
<p>K. Regards,
MEM</p>
