Yrogirg's questions

Last time I was installing Ubuntu, I ran it live from usb and changed the partman's config for the default partitioning scheme.

That was the easiest way to get full disk encryption, yet have the custom partition sizes (larger boot, no swap). The alternative would be using gparted and manually configuring LUKS, a far cry from simply ticking "encrypt" setting at the install (see https://askubuntu.com/a/918030/47073 for the stupid amount of steps required).

Unfortunately I forgot where the partman's config is with the default partitioning scheme.

After the upgrade to 12.10 the clock on the gnome panel is now on the far right instead of the middle of the panel:

How do I fix it?

I've just upgraded to 12.10 and firefox doesn't work properly.

When I start it from the gnome shell nothing happens, however system monitor shows me two processes called 'firefox', the last one of which has memory field as N/A.

But when I just type in terminal firefox it starts and there is only one entity of firefox in the system monitor.

I want to use gnome dock only as a launching panel, I don't want it to show currently opened windows. That is it should be just bookmark bar for favorite applications. How do I do this?

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 with two hard drives.

The second drive is set to mount to /home/myuser/DATA and it mounts OK. However gnome shows a 'Removable Devices' item in notification area which lists my hard drive with the unmount button.

How do I make Ubuntu to treat the second hdd like the system one, without suggesting me to unmount it in the notification area?

I've just bought SSD and installed 12.04 on it. I have 11.10 on my old hard drive. However I can't boot from SSD since grub and everything else is on the hdd.

How do I set Ubuntu to boot from SSD?
