I'm using Linode, and I've asked around on the IRC channels, but no one seems to know. I've logged into my server via LISH (reference), and I used the correct password, and everything went fine. However, I need to login via SSH/FTP, and I can't. It keeps on giving me "permission denied". I know the password is correct because I reset it via LISH, and I know I've got the login method right because I've logged into my server before using the exact same commands. I sure hope this doesn't turn out to be some noob issue, or I'm going to be quite frustrated.

I'm getting the following error from my Ubuntu server:
exim paniclog /var/log/exim4/paniclog on (my server FQDN) has non-zero size, mail system might be broken.
I found a solution on the web here. Basically, I just need erase the paniclog by entering the following code:
sudo rm /var/log/exim4/paniclog
So, I know how to get rid of the error, but I don't know how it started, and how to not let it happen again. Any explanation? Thanks in advance.
From a development standpoint, where would one start in developing their own themes for the Ubuntu Desktop.
Obviously, the artist would need image editing software like:
- Gimp, or
- Photoshop, via Virtualbox or Wine
What other software would someone need that is Ubuntu Based?
Are there other concerns that one should look out for?
Thanks in advance.
So I've installed Ubuntu inside of Virtualbox, and I resized the window of Virtualbox to be full-size, but the Ubuntu Desktop stays the same standard size. How do I make the width of Ubuntu stretch 100% across the Virtualbox window?
As most of you know, you can switch between the visual location entry, and the text based one in Nautilus, by hitting Ctrl+L.
When I tried to set this value permanently in gconf-editor, it doesn't exist. When I tried to do it via the terminal, this is the message that I receive:
No value to set for key: /apps/nautilus/preferences/always_use_location_entry
I can still switch between the two via the Ctrl+L, but I'm stumped about the fix.
I had a question about the legality of duplicating the design of a commercial OS to an Open Source desktop. Let me just cut to the chase.
Is it illegal to create a Desktop Window manager that behaves like, and looks like the Macintosh GUI?
