I've imported a .db file from my android device and I wish to open it using Libreoffice Base or something similarly basic with a simple GUI.
How do I achieve this?
Can I install a command line version of deja-dup backup utility on Ubuntu server?
I wish to restore a backup of my previous Home directory made with deja-dup.
I wish to setup Ubuntu One on my 11.10 server but seems to be running into an error every time I attempt to run commands from http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man1/u1sdtool.1.html
For example when I try to run u1sdtool --start I am met with the following error:
dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11
I have just installed Ubuntu One and have made no changes to it thus far.
I find that a lot of the time if I copy some text for example and then close the window being copied from, the paste function does not paste anything.
I've noticed this in Ubuntu 9.04 right up until present version. Is there a work around for this? Is there any reason why the developers are not looking into this?
The time, power, notification, networking and weather applets are displaying in the panel on both of my monitors in Natty. Is there a setting that I can change to ensure they only appear once within my top panel?
I see this thrown around a lot: "Rhythmbox is great, but too bad it's no longer being actively developed, which is why I switched to Banshee."
Can someone please clear this up for me, because the way I read that, it tells me the Rhythmbox project has/is going to be abandoned.
Is it known whether or not Unity will have the option to act like the current custom gnome menus (Applications, Places, System)? From what I've seen they've designed it to take up the whole desktop when the menu is opened.
Also, the File, View, Edit menus, will it be possible to have them stay within the application itself rather than be displayed within the top panel?
Ok, so I can see and listen to music libraries from other computers on my network via Banshee (They are running Rhythmbox with DAAP enabled) but I cannot see my Banshee library from them.
I have DAAP enabled in plugins (on Banshee).
I have to present an assessment for my Uni course in the form of a DVD movie (so it can be played on a DVD player) but so far, Brasero doesn't seem to be doing it. For example, I left it for over an hour today (as it said it was burning) and the DVD came out empty.
Other times, it flat out says it cannot burn the DVD. I am running Ubuntu 10.10, I have ubuntu restricted extras installed and the Medibuntu packages that allow me to watch DVDs.
Any ideas?
I'm looking for an open source Skype application that I can use instead of the current beta we have to install.
Rhythmbox works fine, but sometimes certain tracks won't be played; sometimes when certain tracks are played all I hear is static/cracking sound with basically no sound at all.
If I restart rhythmbox and play the same song/s again, they will play fine (No static).
Any ideas?
Ok, So I've made my script, I dropped it in /etc/cron.hourly then I chmod 777 the file but it won't run (automatically). If I manually run it, it works fine. Do I need to do anything else?
If I create a script and then place it in this folder (/etc/cron.hourly), will my system run this script hourly? Or does my script need to begin with a command as well?
Ok, so when I run the command:
sensors
I get a truck load of info:
atk0110-acpi-0
Adapter: ACPI interface
Vcore Voltage: +1.16 V (min = +0.85 V, max = +1.60 V)
+3.3 Voltage: +3.39 V (min = +2.97 V, max = +3.63 V)
+5 Voltage: +5.17 V (min = +4.50 V, max = +5.50 V)
+12 Voltage: +12.36 V (min = +10.20 V, max = +13.80 V)
CPU FAN Speed: 1906 RPM (min = 600 RPM)
CHASSIS FAN Speed: 0 RPM (min = 600 RPM)

MB Temperature: +32.0°C (high = +45.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)
What would the command be if I just wanted to see this:
CPU Temperature: +31.0°C (high = +60.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)
or better yet, just this:
CPU Temperature: +31.0°C
Can I run a command within another command for example:
twidge update date
date being the bash command date so effectively, twidge will update twitter with today's date. twidge is a CLI based twitter client.
How do I change to icons in here?
How could I make NotifyOSD send all updates to a text file (As well as do what it does)?
I imported my Google calendar into Evolution and now I can't find a way to delete the calendar. How can I delete it?
Is there a way I can use Thunderbird to access and modify my desktop calendar (Or anything other than evolution for that matter)?
How do I share a folder with a friend with Ubuntu One?
