I have windows 7 installed. Then I installed ubuntu 10.04 desktop.
The default boot loader was changed into grub boot loader.
How do I change it back to default.
We are moving to two servers from one server due to performance issues. We are moving our MySQL DB to its own dedicated server and will keep the original machine as the front end machine running nginx/apache (Django backend.)
How do we monitor the value of this change? It is possible our whole site could actually get slower since the MySQL queries will be going out over a secure remote connection instead of locally?
So i just recently installed Ubuntu Linux 10.04 on my desktop machine alongside Windows 7, it booted just fine the first few times but after i went into my windows 7 recovery software provided by packard bell( i did this on accident BTW i exited it straight away and made no changes as far as i know) and re-booted i get this screen:
error: no such partition
grub rescue_
PS: i installed it on a USB stick using the ISO on the official ubuntu website.
I'm trying to secure my home network but don't really need the complexity of a VPN so I'm trying to figure out other options.
I'd like to allow my iPhone remote access to my home servers but I can't depend on the IP address because it changes quite often (due to the 3G network, etc).
Can I filter incoming connections on my router (pfsense) by MAC address or does NAT change the source as it's passing through the different routers on the internet?
I'd like to power two monitors with this video card, each with its own desktop in Windows (that is: extended, not cloned).
MSI M452-9502 GeForce 9500 GT Video Card - 512MB DDR2, PCI Express 2.0, DVI, HDMI, VGA - OEM
Is that possible?
How are users able to actually use features such as pinching if they don't have touchscreen monitors?
I ask this because:
I plan to use Windows 8 on my desktop, and I want to get the full use of any applications I download.
I want to ensure that if I ever release any application I develop to the windows store that there is a way for my users to get around this situation (no touchscreen for multitouch events).
I have a VPN set up on a Symantec Gateway 320 and the status of the VPN is connected but the feature it provides is not working which means it is not actually connected..The only way to test it other than trying to use it in the program that utilizes it is to ping the remote subnet IP we use. mask numbers match, no settings have been changed it just stopped working.
I want to run a guest operating system under a Linux host with VirtualBox, but I don't want to run from within X. I don't want a headless configuration, I don't want to run VirtualBox in the background, I don't want any remote protocols. I just want the guest OS to take control of my console (keyboard, mouse and monitor) and render to the framebuffer directly, not from within an X window.
Is this possible?
Configuration
Windows 7
Intel i7-based platform
ATI Raedon HD 5850 Display card
Virtualbox with ubuntu 10.10 as guest
Problem
I wanted to connect another monitor to my current setup (Which is a single monitor, dell U2711 monitor) so that it would be dedicated to one (or more if possible) virtual machine and for virtual machine use only. Ideally, I do not want the windows desktop to extend to that particular monitor.
Thanks for any help.
Hi, I am using tcsh and define an environmental variable as follows:
setenv mycomp [email protected]
so that when I need to copy files from the remote my.computer.com, I type the following:
scp $mycomp:sourcepath destpath
But when I do this, I get the following error: "Bad : modifier in $ (m)." where (m) is the first character after the colon.
What is this error telling me, and how can I fix it?
In my Core i5 desktop machine I tried to install windows 7 32 bit Ultimate. I received blue screen of death while installing OS. Earlier I had was 64 bit Windows vista which was working fine but now i cant install any of OS.

When I install second OS I didn't reformat the entire hard disk.
I have remote Windows 2003 server with two network interfaces e.g. Cn1 and Cn2.
I need that all traffic goes through Cn1 except for one port (for me it's 3389, rdp for administration) that works over Cn2.
Currently when I setup all connections work through Cn1, I completely lose connection over Cn2 - and can't connect to server via RDP over Cn2. Now I used static routing based on my ip address (which can changed - so it's bad).
Configuration:
windows 8 (desktop)
firefox (latest version)
I've been trying to figure out how to enable the checkbox to "always open with ... application for file type", for quite a while without any luck.
Can anybody explain to me how I can enable the checkbox (see red rectangle). It's in Dutch, but I hope you recognize the dialog.
Tried so far:
- default programs (control panel)
- HKCU/Microsoft/.../FileExts: remove the UserChoice (but it was already removed, so no luck there either)
Thanks a lot in advance
Im running ubuntu. I just tried to play supertux but my LCD didnt support the resolution and all i got was a blank screen and music playing. I tried to close it and go back to the desktop by pressing ctrl + z but that didnt work so i had to hard reset my computer!

Running openSUSE 11.2 x86_64.
Here's what a nmap of my IP provides:
PORT STATE SERVICE
23/tcp open telnet
80/tcp open http
2800/tcp open unknown
8008/tcp open http
I would like to know How to view What service is causing Port 2800 to be opened?
A few search engine results led me to believe that it is supposedly a port opened by a Trojan called "Theef".
If it is indeed a Trojan, what can be done to weed it out? Is my desktop's security compromised?
I have the same slideshow in the exact same folder (C:\Images) on two computers which are syncing their settings over the Microsoft account (mail and other settings synced normally), and I have independently configured them to display wallpaper slideshows from that folder. However, the "Synced Theme" in Personalise Desktop repeatedly resets to a static image. Is there a way to ensure the sync sticks?
How do i archive and remove excess files example.
cd ~/Desktop && tar -cvf sitepack.tar ./
this will give me
ls
Riva_Starr_Feat._Noze_I_Was_Drunk_Official_Video_HD_.mp3
Riva_Starr_feat._Sud_Sound_System_Orizzonti_Official_Vide.mp3
Riva_starr_I_was_drunk_Syskey_remix_.mp3
sitepack.tar
when what i am looking for is
ls
sitepack.tar
so it archive everything into the zip rather than leave them in place?
I'm converting old Windows desktop machines from 2005-2009 into cheap Ubuntu Linux servers. I want to know which ones can handle a 64-bit OS and which can't. I read that some x86 CPUs are 64-bit compatible. The question is how to check.
I'm running Ubuntu Desktop 12.04, and I was wondering if it was possible to somehow take my whole filesystem (everything under /) and create an ISO from it. Then, perhaps, use that ISO as the file system of a VBox VM (obviously, it would have to be Ubuntu, and probably 12.04).
Basically, I've spent a lot of time configuring my development machine, but need to be able to work on it from whatever computer I happen to be at. VMs seem like the perfect solution. Thanks in advance!
We have Windows Server Core 2008 R2. We have successfully installed .NET and the Visual C++ runtimes.
Our application requires the ability to post messages to an MSMQ server
To be clear we do not want to install MSMQ server on the machine.
However we want to be able to post messages to a remote MSMQ server so we need to install the client parts of Windows Messaging.
Has anybody succeeded in doing this?
I'm looking for a music player for my Ubuntu Karmic desktop. I need the following features:
supports multiple playlists
remembers the playback position (file and time) for each playlist
preferably, remembers playback position even when the process is killed
lets the user adjust playback speed, without changing the pitch
I don't care if it's a GUI or command-line player or it uses a client-server model.
I've tried Rhythmbox, which doesn't have features 2., 3. and 4.
Which player would you recommend?
I have a Vista 64-bit desktop and want to copy the Address book gadget, which includes all my Outlook contact information, to my Vista laptop, which does not have Outlook (due to Microsoft install limitations). I tried copying the WAB files to the laptop, but this does not seem to activate and populate the Address Book gadget. Any ideas?
Hello all i've just migrated my desktop machine to Ubuntu 10.04. My problem is that i've just purged a package and can't install this package back. Because I can't see it in the aptitude or apt-get's package list. How can i fix this issue?
I've got a shortcut on my desktop for an executable on a mapped drive. Lets say the Z: drive. If I change the mapping of the drive from say Z: to S: and then double click on that shortcut, my executable will open because Windows changed the properties of that shortcut to run from the S: drive. While this may be handy in some circumstances, its NOT for me. How can I prevent Windows from modifying my shortcut to what it thinks I want.
Thanks
I have Windows Server 2012 Essentials and I'm trying to set up Anywhere Access so I can remotely access files. This feature was really easy to access in Windows Home Server and I'm trying to duplicate that functionality here.
I've tried going through the Anywhere Access wizard several times but I can't get past the SSL Certificates step. I don't want to purchase a certificate; is there any other way to enable remote file access?
