I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition on my Lenovo S10-3. According to the release notes, there is a bug in the kernel that forces me to add
intel_idle.max_cstate=0
to the kernel parameters. I did this when booting the install CD and I was able to install Ubuntu. During the insta...
Not sure how much I can say before I'm told off but traffic has been steadily increasing with a peak yesterday. New user sign-ups have been fairly constant
I want to format a CSV file to create a new one, using elements of the CSV. So I have a three col CSV = ID, NAME, COUNT, I want to create URL, COUNT where URL is a standard format composed of ?id=ID wrapped around the NAME element
It means that you are trying to access an index of an array which is not valid as it is not in between the bounds.
For example this would initialize a primitive integer array with the upper bound 4.
int intArray[] = new int[5];
Programmers count from zero. So this for example would throw an A...
Joystick acts as a mouse, even when I'm playing a game that uses a joystick so I get random mouse events going on.
I plugged a joystick in to play Spiral Knights, also installed joystick and jcalibrate. Everything is working good, except by default the joystick moves the mouse around and the but...
@JoshuaRobison dist-upgrade (the upgrade manager thing (i think)) will update to the next version unless you're running and LTS and choose to do LTS -> LTS. So if you have 9.04 - dist-upgrade will put you at 9.10. Running it again will get you 10.04 - running it an additional time will put you at 10.10
@djeikyb I'm a php/web developer. MySQL is by far the most popular in php PHP development (It's the M in LAMP) CouchDB is definitely more Destkop oriented and SQLite is a great alternative because you don't require a running database server (either local or external).
@djeikyb the biggest thing behind database usage is strictly preferences. 90% of most applications wont realy see the "advanced" features of its DB backed. and the issues related to each. The presense of a DB server in itself makes the app kind of limited, when you can go with something like SQLite that is portable. YMMV with each ofcourse.

@htorque Weights don't really matter to us - we only have at most 15 flags in the queue at anyone time. If more people flag though - it shows all the flags. So if 5 people flag "offtopic" I'm not really going to second guess it
I recently used the update manager to upgrade my laptop from Ubuntu 8 to 10.04 LTS. When I tried to reboot after the upgrade was complete, I got the message
kernel panic not syncing: vfs: unable to mount root FS on unknown block.
If I try to boot into recovery mode, I get the same problem.

The 2011 Christchurch earthquake was a 6.3-magnitude earthquake that struck the Canterbury region in New Zealand's South Island at on local time (23:51 UTC), causing widespread damage and multiple fatalities.

It followed nearly six months after the 7.1 magnitude 2010 Canterbury earthquake that caused significant damage to the region but no direct fatalities.
The names of 169 victims have been released as of 31 March 2011, with the final dea...
Also, is the notion true that Linux (and even Mac os for the matter) less exploited (at least partially) because less people use it? 91% of the market is windows, 7% mac, 1% linux, and 1% other. Does only having 7% or 1% play a major part in os security?
For the record, I've seen the following a...
