only work well after gcc-multilib has been installed. An intel dev in the forums wrote that not even the intel 12.x compilers will support ubuntu’s new lib-folder structure so keep in mind to install gcc-multilib on new systems as this is not done per default.
Ubuntu 10.10 uses NFS 4 by default. If you did not update your NFS-Server, while upgrading your client, you’ll receive a Remote I/O error, due to incompatibilities between version 3 and version 4. Change the mount options in your /etc/fstab from defaults to vers=3,defaults to prevent this error.
If you want to upgrade your Ubuntu 10.04 server to 10.10, and do-release-upgrade tells you No new release found, you might want to check the file /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and set Prompt=normal.
At first i was like wow, then i was like wtf, now i am like omg. Thats the short version 
I wanted to sync my ipod touch and was really astonished that ubuntu recognized the ipod out of box and i could play songs from the device right away. Trying to sync music from the pc to the pod created a pop-up-box per song stating: Error while getting peer-to-peer dbus connection. After some searching i found out that using gconf (apps->rhythmbox->plugins->ipod) and deactivating the ipod plugin actually makes it work (this, btw, was the wtf moment for me). I’d also like to share the comment of the person posting the solution:
I don’t know how or why it works, but this is true of most things I’ve learned about Linux.
I think there’s nothing more to add to that . . .

Using my bluetooth headset i wanted to listen to music at work without the hassle of coping with cables. Setting up my Nokia BH-103 with a level one MDU-0005USB connected to the USB-port at my monitor worked out of the box. Then i added 2 cool plugins to rhythmbox as i’m rather fond of cover art:

This is it.
Seit Ubuntu 10.04 hat das Betriebssytem die (in meinen Augen) Unart, mich zu fragen ob ich wirklich und zu 100% sicher bin mit meiner Entscheidung bezüglich Shutdown/Restart/LogOut.
Ja verflucht , ich komm mir langsam vor wie bei Windows. Nur gut dass man es ändern kann, hier die Anleitung.
Ever wanted to get rid of Ubuntu One – here’s a pretty good howto. I had to stop 2 more couchdb processes and most of the folders were absent on my system as i never used ubuntu one. The main reason for getting rid of ubuntu one was that evolution always wanted to store my addresses in the wrong db. Therefore i also removed the package evolution-couchdb.

When trying to compile a 2.6.33 kernel on Ubuntu nowadays, you’ll run into this problem:
The UTS Release version in include/linux/version.h
""
does not match current version:
"2.6.33-<appended-string>"
Please correct this.
This would not be soo bad, if it wouldn’t fail after compiling (and by that wasting a lot of cpu time …).
To avoid this error, fix the file /usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/misc/version_vars.mk
And replace this code
UTS_RELEASE_HEADER=$(call doit,if [ -f include/linux/utsrelease.h ]; then \ echo include/linux/utsrelease.h; \ else \ echo include/linux/version.h ; \ fi)
with this one
UTS_RELEASE_HEADER=$(call doit,if [ -f include/generated/utsrelease.h ]; then \ echo include/generated/utsrelease.h; \ elif [ -f include/linux/utsrelease.h ]; then \ echo include/linux/utsrelease.h; \ else \ echo include/linux/version.h; \ fi)

Hi,
trying to install the latest version of intel compilers cause some amount of trouble as you do not only need the old and now dropped version 5 of libstdc++ – you also need it for x86_64 and i386. Both packages are available from the jaunty (9.04) Version of Ubuntu – but both packages install to /usr/lib whereas on an 64bit system the 32bit version has to be installed to /usr/lib32. So the 32bit deb has to be installed “manually” – all the details are now available on an intel-site:
http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/using-intel-compilers-for-linux-with-ubuntu/
This small info was missing in the post here
ICC und Ifort gibt es non-commercial for free: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/non-commercial-software-download/
Unter Ubuntu 9.10 ist die Installation etwas hagelig. Hier eine kleine Hilfestellung:
Es werden trotz Intel64 Installation noch einige 32bit libs benötigt
apt-get install lib32gcc1 lib32stdc++6 libc6-dev-i386 gcc-multilib ia32-libs
Ubuntu 9.10 bringt nur noch die libstdc++6 mit es wird aber auch Version 5 gebraucht. Einen Symlink setzen funktioniert wegen der inkompatiblem API nicht.
Unter http://packages.debian.org/stable/base/libstdc++5 kann sowohl die 32 als auch die 64bit Version eines passenden Debian Pakets bezogen werden.
Installieren dann mit
dpkg -i libstdc++5_3.3.6-18_amd64.deb
Needed google earth to test some fancy features of my beloved Nokia E71. Repo’s shown Version 4.2 and 4.3 but they == google announced V5 recently. The Ubuntu 8.10 I’m using has a package called googleearth-package which creates a deb-file out of the installer provided by google:
sudo aptitude install googleearth-package wget http://dl.google.com/earth/client/current/GoogleEarthLinux.bin make-googleearth-package --force sudo dpkg -i googleearth_*.deb cd /usr/lib/googleearth/ sudo mv libcrypto.so.0.9.8 wrong_libcrypto.so.0.9.8
The last part is necessary to avoid errors like this:
/usr/lib/googleearth/googleearth-bin: relocation error: /usr/lib32/i686/cmov/libssl.so.0.9.8: symbol BIO_test_flags, version OPENSSL_0.9.8 not defined in file libcrypto.so.0.9.8 with link time reference
As allways you have to be aware that googleearth is NOT open source and therefore evil
Oh and btw – if you are a KDE user try:
googleearth -style plastiqueAll the good gnome-user out there should rather use:
googleearth -style cleanlooks
