32125 | 1 | 32129 | 2011-03-26T16:24:54.540 | 1 | 100 | <p>Is it possible to change the way how Update Manager displays the updates currently available?
Currently (in Maverick 10.10) the packages are shown with their description in a larger font, and their package name (and size) in smaller font.</p>
<p>I would prefer having the other way round: read easily what's the package name in question, and if I don't recognize what is it, read in smaller text what that package does.</p>

<p>Problem is... I just doesn't work as good as a Windows Box... The box is to function as a media centre and all reviews seen, just does not match up (unless those guys never used Windows ever)</p>
<p>The box consists of:-</p>
<ol>
<li>Intel Dual Core LGA 775 3.2Ghz Proc</li>
<li>Kingston 4GB DDR-3 Memory</li>
<li>Seagate 1TB SATA-2 HDD</li>

<li>nVidia Corporation GT216 [GeForce GT 220]</li>
</ol>
<p>OS : Ubuntu 10.10 x64 Desktop</p>
<p>The propriety driver for the GT220 was installed.
Ubuntu Restricted Media Formats were installed.</p>
<p>Software in Question:-</p>
<ol>
<li>MythTV and</li>
<li>Movie Player</li>
</ol>
<p>Problems is: </p>
<ol>
<li>Video is choppy... er .. horizontal "lines" can be seen within the parts of the screen that has the most movement.</li>
<li>Only Stereo Sound can be obtained from a 5.1 Surround Setup</li>
<li>Three weeks later... and I'm tired with this setup... therefore this posting is my final attempt prior to moving back to Windows</li>

only provides "Analogue Stereo Ouput" as an option on the "Internal Audio" device, which is the only functional option.</p>
<p><code>speaker-test -c 6 -Dplug:surround51 -t wav</code>
provides only the "lady's voice" on the Front Left and Front Right Speakers.</p>
<p>What bugs me the most, is that one just cannot find any proper solution to the sound issue. In addition, would someone be as kind as clearing the usage / dependency / requirements of "ALSA" and "PULSEAUDIO" ? Does one still need ALSA with PULSEAUDIO ? </p>
<p>And for the life of me, I cannot find a working "Mixer Console" for PULSEAUDIO (Therefore the query above) ALSAMIXER nor KMIX works?</p>
<p>Will there be help or should I switch back to Microsoft?</p>

<p>The network is detected in Ubuntu 10.10, but when the wireless password is entered into the standard Ubuntu internet connection area, a connection fails to establish.</p>
<p>Any suggestions as to how it might be possible to connect to this router?</p>

<p><strong>Could Ubuntu and Mono run an ASP.NET MVC website like Ask Ubuntu?</strong></p>
<p>The technology is the focus here instead of the site. Could you replace IIS, ASP.NET, MVC, etc with free and open source technologies without having to completely redevelop the site?</p>

It's wrapped by some magic voodoo encryption schema (PKCS#11 - this is used for secure storage on removable media) so it's going to be relatively secure from prying eyes.</p>\n\n<p>It provides a common backend for (insert framework here, we will use gnome for an example) to CRUD (create, read, update, delete) your login information without \"rolling your own solution\". It keeps a consistent interface for programmers utilizing that particular framework. KDE provides its own keyring, Gnome has another implementation of it. </p>\n\n<p>Evolution, Firefox, Net-man all utilize this interface. When you place your email server credentials into Evolution it asks you to store that information in the keyring. If you opt into it, it passes the data off to the keyring service and voilà, it's stored. Evolution only has to subsequently call the keyring service on startup to retrieve that information.</p>\n\n<p>The big idea here is that if someone else were to access your PC and did not know the master password to your keyring, they could not access your stored login information. The same principle is put to use by lastpass.com's addon for your browser. (only it's distributed, meaning I can use it on several instances of browsers across PC's) </p>\n\n<p>In summary, I offer this snippet from the gnome-keyring page <a href=\"http://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring\">located here</a></p>\n\n<blockquote>\n <p>GNOME Keyring is a collection of components in GNOME that store\n secrets, passwords, keys, certificates and make them available to\n applications.</p>\n \n <p>GNOME Keyring is integrated with the user's login, so that their\n secret storage can be unlocked when the user logins into their\n session.</p>\n \n <p>GNOME Keyring is based around a standard called PKCS#11, which is a\n standard way for applications to manage certificates and keys on smart\n cards or secure storage.</p>\n</blockquote>\n",

I want to use them simultaneously to improve the speed of a remote connection. (Yay for programming remotely). How do I do this? At present /etc/network/interfaces:</p>
<pre><code>auto lo eth0 eth1
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.202
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.2
ifrace eth1 inet static
address 192.168.1.201
netmask 255.255.255.0
</code></pre>
<p>What should I change? Is there a package I need to install to bond the two channels.</p>
<p><strong>Background:</strong> I do a lot of remote computing both from home to office and office to home. But (to take my ISP out of the equation), let's frame the question as if I'm really just interested in maximizing the file transfer rate between two computers on the same (local) network. Both boxes have dual ethernet motherboards. Using a simple Linksys WRT54GS as a 5 port switch (ignore wireless and isp) -- how do I maximize the transfer rates between the computers?</p>
<p><strong>Please Note:</strong> I'm not interested in load balancing -- Correct me if I'm wrong, but I want to bond the two channels together so that the box <em>appears</em> as if it has one connection that's twice as fast.</p>

32249 | 1 | null | 2011-03-27T14:39:26.607 | 2 | 1071 | <p>I installed Ubuntu in an Old PC and the problem is that Ubuntu is unable to detect my monitor which is <strong>Samsung SyncMaster 591s</strong> . When I go to <strong>System -> Preferences -> Monitor</strong> , There is no option to change the resolution and it is set to <code>800 * 600</code> .
Which looks utterly ugly.</p>
<p><strong>Here is a screenshot</strong>
<img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/bbFvm.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
<p>There are no options in <strong>Resolution, Refresh rate, Rotation</strong> listed in the Monitor preferences other than shown in the screenshot.</p>
<p>I don't have any Graphic Card installed.</p>
<p>Its a dual boot system with windows xp and, XP has perfectly fine resolution.

32251 | 1 | 32879 | 2011-03-27T14:59:21.500 | 1 | 2932 | <p>I have been trying to change my password now for a while, and every single time I get an error. Here's what I have tried so far:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>passwd</code> in terminal - I get a message saying the password has been changed successfully, but when I have to use it anywhere else, to login or to authenticate a change the new password doesn't work; I have to use the old one.</li>
<li>System > Users and Groups - When I use this to change the password, the password change dialog box grays out after I enter the new password and remains that way. I can close the window, but the password doesn't get changed.</li>
</ul>
<p>Any idea what could be wrong or how to solve this? Might have to file a bug in Launchpad otherwise. FYI, I'm using 10.10 Netbook Edition.</p>
<p><strong>Update:</strong> Included answer to how I solved problem. However, the problem with being unable to update passwords using the GUI 'Users and Groups' remains. The dialog box goes gray and password remains unchanged. Any idea why this could be happening / anyone else facing this?</p>

The fix for that was that I had to reinstall grub on the correct partition for ubuntu to boot again.

<p>After I was done doing that I rebooted and the grub> terminal is now there. I would usually see a list to choose from with my os but Im guessing I have to update grub when I reboot or load the menu list. The problem is I did a lot of research to figure out how to boot from grub> but I cannot find a way to do so.</p>
<p>It is not easy finding a tutorial for doing so and I am completley stuck. I would like to know an easy way to boot into my ubuntu from grub and making the booting as it was before I made the partition. Please any help would be greatly appreciated for I need to get on my ubuntu to start doing some work...</p>

<hr>
<p>Info: So I'm dyslexic and a college student. This means that I cannot read very quickly and have to read a lot for classes. To help me the academic support center gives me audio recording of my books. The problem is that these are all DRMed. The only way I can read them is to use windows media player in windows (tried wine with no success). This is ok when I'm on my desktop which i have duel booted into windows XP and Ubuntu. But on my laptop, which I use when I'm in the library for example, I only have Ubuntu. The for purchase package "Fluendo" (Which now that I look at it I realize is Latin for "Deserving to flow") looks like it should allow me to get around these DRM issues and be able to read my texts more than just at my desktop.</p>
<p>But it raises two questions for me. One, if I buy this, can I install it on both my laptop and desktop? two, if I have to reformat my system, how do I recover this software?</p>

</code></pre>
<p>I'm new to Ubuntu and I've found <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx" rel="nofollow">this guide</a> which addresses my issue exactly. I've got internet connectivity and I just want to enable the wireless card on this old Dell laptop. However, I'm running Ubuntu Server 10.10 and I would rather not install a Desktop. Thus, I'm stuck at the following step:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Step 2.</p>
<p>Under the desktop menu System >
Administration > Hardware/Additional
Drivers, the b43 drivers can be
activated for use.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Is it possible to accomplish this in the CLI?</p>

32292 | 1 | 32295 | 2011-03-27T20:03:53.210 | 20 | 18268 | <p>These days, I have to use the NTFS-3G driver to write to an NTFS drive (which will later be used in Windows). But I still remember the olde times of Linux ntfs driver which clearly said in the docs: 'If you write to an ntfs volume, run our special program afterwards which will clean up the damage done.'</p>
<p>So, I read through the man, the docs, the Tuxera site and Askubuntu and found no discussion of the write-safety of NTFS-3G. The only thing that was mentioned somewhere is that the driver doesn't support the NTFS journal.</p>
<p>So, the question is, can I use NTFS-3G and be sure that I will later read what I have written to the files? Won't, for example, Windows find the journal entries missing and 'clean up' the data according to its own faulty understanding?</p>

It's kind of hard to describe what that is, but when it does, alot the pixels go "green" and the image becomes blurry, sort of. I've confirmed this to be an error in the monitor, and not the GFX card.</p>
<p>I can get it to snap out of 'green-mode' and go back to being completely normal by either logging out and back in again, or by switching user.</p>
<p>For a long time (running Windows) I was able to achieve the same effect, simply by changing the resolution forth and back. This <em>has</em> previously worked in Ubuntu, but it doesn't any longer. I've had the same thing happen in Windows, where it's normal resolution resizer, didnt do the job, but then after an update, it worked again.</p>
<p>I'm running NVIDIA drivers.</p>
<p>Is there anyway to get Ubuntu doing the same? It feels as if the resizing isnt done "hard" - you can sort of tell if the entire screen goes black while resizing, or if it just resizes.</p>

I tried adding em28xx as the chipset (as suggested by user BOBBO below) for the tuner but that did not work. I went back to my Pinnacle PCTV internal card. I don't think the tuner referred by UbuntuForums (Gadmei UTV 330) and the tuner that I have (Gadmei UTV 302) are the same. My USB tuner is several times bigger. My tuner seems to be a newer device with a newer tuner chip. I will submit details of this device to the LinuxTV developers this weekend.</p>
<p><strong>Update 5</strong>
I opened the tuner box and found that it uses a tuner from a Chinese company - Tenas. Model is TNF 8022-DFA.</p>

<p>I can adjust applications or the master volume down, but if a new application makes a sound it is deafening. Also The master volume has reset to 200% before when fiddling with the equalizer - so I'm kind of scared of relying on that now</p>
<p>At the moment I adjust the master, but I have it close to 25% meaning a slight increase will usually make it too loud.</p>
<p>Previously when using ALSA, I could have the PCM volume set to 25% then adjust the master volume from 0-100%. However now in pulse audio if I set the PCM volume and then change master volume the PCM will be reset to 100%.</p>
<p>Any suggestions?
I've pretty much stopped listening to music because I'm (some what irrationally) scared of it now</p>

32396 | 1 | 32401 | 2011-03-28T13:45:05.390 | 0 | 979 | <p>I am currently running a VM of Ubuntu 10.10 within VMware Player (host & vm stats below) and I'm getting horrific lag. I've executed the initial setup of the vmware files but nothing beyond that. I'm not really sure where to go from here and any help would be awesome.</p>
<p>The weird thing is, its not laggy all of the time. Occasionally it'll be snappy as if it were host OS. I can't place the rhyme or reason as to why it would act that way sometimes and not others.</p>
<p><strong>Host</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Windows 7 x64 Ultimate SP1</li>
<li>Intel Q6600 (quad core cpu)</li>
<li>8 gb ram</li>
<li>4 x 500gb 7200RPM drives in Raid 10</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Virtual Machine</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Ubuntu 10.10 x64</li>
<li>VMware Player v3.1.3</li>
<li>3gb memory (reduced from 6 gb memory in hopes it was just a paging issue)</li>
<li>100 gb flexible drive out of a 120 gb partition</li>

<p>We've got several Ubuntu 10.04 servers and I'm looking to deploy Puppet for configuration management. The machines already have RVM installed with Ruby 1.9.2 as default. I've tried running puppetmasterd under sudo and puppet is throwing a few errors depending on how I run the service.</p>
<p>I installed puppet via gem, but I was wondering if there was a more canonical (no pun intended) means of getting Puppet up and running that was Ubuntu specific. Google didn't turn up much and the best I could find was this entry in the Puppet wiki:</p>
<p><a href="http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Puppet_Ubuntu" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Puppet_Ubuntu</a></p>
<p>I know that Ubuntu's Ruby packages are in disarray, so is this a valid means of installing and running Puppet?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>But my nexus one doesn't show up in Banshee (the mass storage plugin is enabled). Has anyone had any luck getting this working?</p>
<p>This is with Banshee 1.9.5.</p>

A tool like <code>lsscsi</code> is a nice way to aggregate the listing of all SCSI based storage on your system. You should see several LUNs with a make of <strong>HP</strong>.\nIf you don't, that means the array hasn't even provisioned a single LUN yet. It's up to you to setup the SAN, provide network connectivity, log into, and provision the storage. After that, a <strong>LIP event</strong> <a href=\"http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html-single/Online_Storage_Reconfiguration_Guide/index.html#scanning-storage-interconnects\" rel=\"nofollow\">lip event example</a> must be issued on your side to force a rescan on the fabric, or you could just reboot.</p>\n\n<p>If you don't have multiple routes to the SAN than you can use it as is. If so, it get's a little more complicated. Considering your level of expertise, I would leave\nmultipath alone, which means only one port should be attached from the host to the SAN.</p>\n\n<p>Overall, it sounds to me like you need to commit to understanding this array and\nhow to administer it. This is no plug and play affair. There's copious documentation on this equipment to assist you in this exercise. Good luck!</p>\n",
