The lack of consistent docs keeps throwing me for a loop.
not sure its worth it since we have 10.04, 11.04, 11.10 and (soon) 12.04 machines in the house - might be worth just doing a full blown package mirror... maybe?
ugh... i think i'll go ahead and do a full blown mirror, the NAS has about 200GB free. should be enough if i don't do 12.04 until after release day, right?
because after release day, we won't have any 10.04 machines around.

If I have a file or directory that is a symbolic link and I commit it to a git repo what happens to it?
I would assume that it leaves it as a symbolic link until the file is deleted and then if you pull the file back from an old version it just creates a normal file.
What does it do when I dele...
true. i'll just say this and then be done: I am extremely happy that now my server VM boots in 5 minutes instead of the 15+ it used to. new computer is nice
@jrg I've been looking through the trademark policy and think your answer is probably wrong. I've put up another answer; ideally a Canonical legal person could come and answer, though

Today I've spent all day trying to fix an Ubuntu 11.04 but I failed. I didn't wanted to upgrade one step further because I am trying to avoid Unity, but I had to recover that PC so I installed 11.10, now after a few hours I am not hating it so much, I kinda like it but I still don't quite underst...

I would like to know the difference between these two Operating system. I know both are open source. But apart from it, what makes Ubuntu special and what makes Fedora special?
It will be really great if the answer mentions the disadvantage in each OS.
Thanks in advance.
Awesome! Works well for me. In addition, it is interesting that after conflict resolution renamed "New Note Template" is deleted immediately by Ubuntu One. Someone messed up something ...

I'm trying to make an app to switch your XFCE4-Panel's layout between 3 layouts. I applied those layouts and copied the XML file where Xfconf stores its configuration for the panel.
The general idea was that I could just remove the old file and copy over the new one. Only, that didn't work out so...

I really like the new login screen that comes with 11.10, and was disappointed that the Lock Screen did not look similar. The current lock screen looks pretty underwhelming in comparison.
I searched this site for a few suggestions on how to make it look a bit better, but they seem to all point t...

I re-ran those two commands and told it to branch again after deleting the software-center folder. It again asked me for my password, which I gave, and after a short pause it did the branch
My guess is that I forgot the passphrase in the first place, which silly me did not set to my system password
So, yeah, I was just being stupid

I download an application from a website in its .tar.bz2 form as opposed to through apt-get or through the software center as I usually do (I don't think it matters but just in case, the application in question is Sublime Text 2).

heh, i initially answered the "unity from source" question via a big edit. this got Stefano Candori 36 upvotes and a 100 rep bounty. now there's a new 100 rep bounty → should i be generous and edit this answer again or should i add a new one, getting all the fame myself? :D
