I've been reading about Rainbow Tables recently. There's a few webpages that will do a reverse look up for an MD5 hash. Is there any programme on Ubuntu that lets me do this? Is there something in Ubuntu that will let me generate my own rainbow tables?
I have a server running an older version of Ubuntu and with /var stored on a separate partition on a separate hard drive. I am attempting to update Ubuntu to 10.04, but I still want to store /var on a separate partition and hard drive. However, I don't want to format the drive which currently contains /var, as it has important data.
Is there some way to have 10.04 set up the new /var on this separate drive at installation, without formatting the drive and losing the old /var?
Can I install Ubuntu 9.10 to partition with Windows 7 Loader? I.e. I want to completely erase this partition and have Ubuntu on it. Will GRUB boot Windows 7 without its loader?
I'm trying to install ImageMagick to my Ubuntu box. I've run the following command:
sudo aptitude install imagemagick
Now whenever I try to run 'display' from the command line, I get an error saying
display: delegate library support not built-in `' (X11) @ display.c/DisplayImageCommand/1888.
I can certainly include more details if asked, but at the moment I'm not sure what else to include.
I'm running Ubuntu 9.10.
I found several tutorials internet about how installing APC (PHP cache) with php5 and apache on Ubuntu, and I've also found some about installing it with lighttpd + php5 on Debian.
I actually need a tutorial for installing APC on servers with the following configuration:
lighttpd + php 5.2 on Ubuntu 10
I know it should be pretty similar, but if I found the exact tutorial I could save time.
Could you help me ?
thanks

When I startup my machine, the Grub (Grub2 - Karmic) starts and asks if I want to run Windows or Ubuntu. But there are 6 different choices for Ubuntu and they are all the same. Plus, when I started up today I had one more - I don't know how it got added?

The Rackspace cloud server tech tells my CentOS 5.4 VPS (Xen) runs "CentOS with an Ubuntu kernel"
Could someone explain, in plain terms, what "CentOS with an Ubuntu kernel" means and if there are any disadvantages (performance, mgmt) between that and running CentOS with a CentOS kernel?
Thanks

I want to install Ubuntu from a non bootable Ubuntu disk. I currently have Windows XP installed. How can I do that?
My intention is to remove Windows completely.
On a Ubuntu 9.10 system:
$ uname -a
Linux ionut-laptop 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:04:26 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
the files /var/log/wtmp and /var/log/btmp are empty:
$ ls -la /var/log/?tmp
-rw-rw---- 1 root utmp 0 2010-04-10 16:54 /var/log/btmp
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root utmp 0 2010-04-10 16:54 /var/log/wtmp
Because of this, the last(1) command is not working.
What to do?

Hello,
I have latest Ubuntu installed, with firefox 3.6.3.
I have flashplugin-installer and ubuntu-restricted-extras installed.
No other package concerning flash (gnash, swf) is installed.
I can play videos on youtube or some other sites, some even some videos on yahoo, but I cannot play this video (and some others) - the blue circle in the center (like loading...) keeps flashing forever.
Why can't I play it, and how to make it play?

I've read through the "supported hardware" pages for Ubuntu, but it's a long list, sorted by manufacturer, with lots of anecdotal evidence.
All I am looking for is a USB wifi adapter that "just works" with Ubuntu. Any recommendations? Apologies if this question isn't phrased well.
