Hi I wanna configurate the email client thunderbird for get my email from ny yahoo account, how can I do that?

From the looks of your subject line your user profile is configured to
receive the digest version. Go to:

Modify settings or unsubscribe at:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users

And log into your account at the bottom of the page. Once logged in,
scroll down and change this setting:

* Set Digest Mode*

If you turn digest mode on, you'll get posts bundled together
(usually one per day but possibly more on busy lists), instead of
singly when they're sent.

Hi,

One of the things GTK upstream has been working on this cycle is to
deprecate direct access to implementation detail in favor of using
accessor functions, you can read about in on:
http://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/UseGseal

The sealing is not enforced by default, which means things not using yet
the accessor functions will still build...

Does anybody has a link to a distro, that supports ata over ethernet,
and it's like: freenas, openfiler

sorry for the "interesting question" :D:S

thank you!

I just cam across vimeo (http://vimeo.com), which seems to be YouTube

Any Ideas?

Hello All

When I diff to folders, I get a output like this:
Only in /var/www/images/stories/fruit: ABS.jpg

Now, I would like to copy the "Only in" to a different folder (with full
path name, if possible).

Looks like I am to stupid to find it out by myself (google only shows
some Windows tools :-) )

I bought this pci card for $9.00 and was surprised it now works.
The original pci serial port I was told was good cost $100.00 so one for
less than $10.00 was a surprise. This Oxford Semiconductor Ltd device
has a jumper that you can set to zero, 5 volts, or 12 volts. I decided
to try 12 volts but it would not work with my fldigi controller.

I set it to 0 volts and the thing works fine. I could not imagine 0
volts was right but it is. So I am now ready to work the digital world
again.

Hi all.
I'd like to jumpstart Solaris 10 from my Ubuntu 9.10 installation.

Which are the steps to do so?
I have already setup in a Solaris VM the solaris Jumpstart Enterprise

Hi,

I have a bug sofware related which happens every single time (as opposed to
being intermittent):
output of syslog --> segfault at decafbad ip 0063d003 sp bf99e450 error 5 in
libclutter-glx-1.0.so.0.0.6[61d000+ab000]

it happens when I am on the desktop in files & folders in Ubuntu Remix 9.10.
My Screen goes completely green (actually nice color) and then I lose all my
icons for a little while.

I am trying to get a pci-serial-port to work on Ubuntu 10.04
computer. It looked like it was ready to work, but read a web page that
said this device has to have the serial port set to 115200 baud to make
it work. To do this I had to get the software "setserial" and I
discovered it had to be root to actually work on /dev/ttyS*. It appears
to have done this but I have no way to check even this.

Hi Folks.

I´ve Just Installed Ubuntu 9.10 Server 32 Bit With Apache 2.2.14.

Hi.

I'm new to Ubuntu, which I installed on two laptops that also have
Windows (XP on one, 7 on the other). Everything was fine while I was
running 2.6.31.14, but I ran into problems when I (or rather the update
manager) updated to 2.6.31.20.
1. The dual-boot system with XP starts grub and I can't get it to do
anything beyond that point. (I can't get much out of grub anyway.)
2. The dual-boot system with W7 proceeds to the point where I can choose
which version to load.

Is there a way to skip the step where it starts the partitioner?

I've been trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 on an Eeepc for over a week now.
I've overcome a lot of problems but now the install hangs on the
partitioner step.

I would like to boot the Gpartd Live CD, setup and format the disk the
way I want it and then install Ubuntu to it without the partitioner
getting involved.

The SSD seems to be good now. I've used dd to wipe it twice, then I ran
testdisk and it showed no errors.

For some reason there are two places that contain the proper files
to start f-spot. The system will not start but does tell you the
problem. It is this:

karl at Lucid:~$ f-spot
It looks like you have 2 settings directories for f-spot
(/home/karl/.gnome2/f-spot and /home/karl/.config/f-spot). Remove one or
run f-spot with --basedir option

So the only problem is to decide which one to delete.

I think I may have a software bug. I am using Ubuntu remix 9.10 on
my
netbook toshiba T110. I have looked at 'syslog' and this is a
transcript:
segfault at decafbad ip 0063d003 sp bf99e450 error 5 in
libclutter-glx-1.0.so.0.0.6[61d000+ab000]
The symptom:
When I am on my desktop and I click on files and folders, I then
hover
the cursor a little bit and every single time the screen will go
completely green and I lose all my icons with it.

Hi,

I was wondering whether anyone had ever experienced anything like this:--

A couple of days ago I was happily running Fedora 12, only to find that
on booting into it that the available screen resolution of 1920x1080,
which had been correctly detected on installation and maintained ever
since, had suddenly dropped to 640x480!

Assuming (incorrectly) that it was down to Fedora's policy of pushing
the nouveau driver and bleeding-edge X.org servers I moved the hidden
config files & directories over to an archive folder and proceeded to
install Ubuntu 9.10.

I have a Ubuntu 9.10 installed on X200 Tablet thinkpad
and the Ctrl+ mouse left click for picking separate items / spreadsheet rows
or columns doesn't work, any suggestions?
Thanks,

Hello all,

as with the previous LTSes, I just went through lucid/main to check
for duplicated library and program versions. These tend to accumulate
over time and need some cleanup, especially due to the long-term
support nature of Lucid.

I created a blueprint here:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/lucid-duplicated-packages

(still needs to be approved)

The wiki page (linked from the blueprint) has the actual data and
reverse dependencies:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/Lucid/DuplicatedPackages

This is a team effort, so any help is greatly appreciated.

I've been researching this for several hours, now, and I'm not getting
anywhere.

I have a DI1501 laptop with the following audio found with lspci:

I have imported my address book contacts from Gmail into Evolution, and now
want to batch mail each contact's v-card to them for editing and automatic
updating. How would I do this?

I do not see a related Evolution plug-in. I have checked features in Gmail
and Plaxo, and don't see an obvious way to do this. Is there maybe an
OpenOffice spreadsheet or database method to handle this?

I msut deal with some annoying PPS attachments on a regular basis.
They have effects and whatnot. How can I configure Thunderbird to open

browse the slides without effects?

Thanks!

After a stable version is released, additional bugs will be found. Some
of them qualify for an SRU, but a lot of them won't. Perhaps they're not
critical enough, the risc of regression is too high, the bug is down in
the infrastructure, it's just a minor annoyance for a few users, etc.

Yet I believe fixing those bugs would make a lot of Ubuntu users happy.

Right now we deal with that situation mainly by letting our users search
around for a ppa where the bug is fixed. That's a little risky from a
security point of view, and perhaps not as user-friendly as we would
like.

Hi,

I have installed WIN XP in VM but would like to be able to access my
printer from it.
I believe one has to set this up as if on a network. I tried this some
months ago but got nowhere as I've never had anything to do with networks.
Could someone give me step by step instructions how to do this -
including what to type in the various screens?
My printer is a hpdeskjet 960C attached to a parallel port and Ubuntu
9.04 is my OS.

Thanks

After installing guest additions and restarting lucid and logging in, the
cursor becomes invisible.

Anyone else having this problem?

My "workaround" for now is using VMware Player as a host instead of
VirtualBox, but I much prefer the latter.

Thanks.

Anyone out there running Lucid?

If so, have you noticed a recent update has suddenly changed your GRUB
boot screen from plain to a background with the Debian logo?

I wish I knew how to remove it.

At first I thought it was somehow installed separately, but in fact it's
part of the grub-pc package.

/etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme is one of the files in said package.

Nothing against Debian, but I'm not running Debian and I like my GRUB
background to be OS-agnostic. :)

Folks,

I have been watching the thread on the zero space problem and when I saw the
note about ncdu, I decided that it might be a good thing to have. So..

I like it! I was able to recover about 500MB of space on one of my systems that
was used by an application I had forgotten about. Not a lot of space but when
you only have 32GB every MB counts!

In the process I discovered that on two of the four systems it reports an error
in the directory .gvfs for the home directory of a user(not the same user).

Hi,

Synaptic: "The DEB program package linux-doc includes Linux kernel
specific documentation for version 2.6.31. -- The DEB program package
linux-source-2.6.31 includes Linux kernel source for version 2.6.31 with
Ubuntu patches."
So, does linux-source-2.6.31 contain a superset of linux-doc? Can I
delete linux-doc if I have linux-source-2.6.31 installed?

For example both include the same file BUG-HUNTING.

Kind regards,
Detlef Lechner
