I have 5 desktops, all running Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit.
All are connecting to the Internet through the LAN (using a dlink switch), I want to see all of them in the network and sharing, and also I want to make a dedicated folder on a desktop to share files on other desktops.
I installed Samba and i also give permission to a folder as share with everyone, but it still isn't visible on other desktops :(
Please help me in making a LAN connection for sharing, Internet is working fine on all pc's
My office is going to buy a bulk number of desktop PCs (for developmental purposes).
I encouraged them to buy PCs without a pre-installed OS and then install Linux. My colleagues agree with me but they are not regular users of any Linux-based OS, so they want to choose a Linux OS which is best for our purposes and user-friendly and I suggested Ubuntu.
Now I want some data to support my position, what's so good about Linux and specifically Ubuntu?
I am using Ubuntu 11.10 and I want to know if there is any other copy/move manager rather than default.
Some features which I would in the copy manager are:
auto start as my session start
copy and resume options
small and lightweight
must be a GUI
having some features for copy management such as duplicate finder, transfer speed control, priority
I want to change my software sources because I don't want to update my Ubuntu from other software sources. I tried to change it from Unity dock: I typed software source and a icon appeared but when I clicked nothing happened.
And then I tried it from Update manager: I clicked on edit->source but nothing happened.
I am still able to download and install updates as well as software from Ubuntu Software Center
I installed linux mint manually.
now i removed it but at the time of boot screen it is showing
"linux mint 12 flubox, 3.0.0-13-generic (/dev/sda5)"
"linux mint 12 flubox, 3.0.0-13-generic (/dev/sda5)-recovery mode"
And when i boot up it shows the login screen of linuxmint. but login screen do't have option to login to linux mint it has option for only ubuntu it means the linuxmint is removed.
How i can get back my default ubuntu login screen and ubuntu boot up?
I think at the time of installation of linuxmint i allowed linux mint desktop environment and replaced ubuntu desktop enviroment.
