  • Audio under Linux

    I had Ubuntu 6.04 and there were many errors about Audio drivers and devices not working. I turned it off and that was it at the time.

    Now that I have upgraded to Ubuntu 8.04 (avoiding the bug in October Debug in regard to a huge error in generating an SSL key and all of that!), I thought I'd try again.

    I use VLC so I tried to run with that. I could see the audio equalizer so I thought that it should be working and we should hear the audio... but nothing at all. And VLC would spit out an error about the pulse audio deamon not working properly:

  • GRUB error 16

    Today I got an error 16 with GRUB on one of my machines. This had happened before so I did not worry too much. It is just quite annoying.

    A Ubuntu boot CD has a cool feature one can use to rescue such a system (i.e. re-install GRUB properly.) More or less, boot the CD, select the rescue mode, let it do its things for a moment (after you select options like keyboard, etc.)

  • Installing an Ubuntu Server & more

    1) Getting the OS

    Back to summary

    First go to http://www.ubuntu.com and get the latest version you're interesting in. They offer server version that they support for 5 years or so. I suggest one of those if you want to run a server. This is an ISO, in generate around 600Mb so be ready to wait a few hours... Even with a really fast connection, because the transfer will be limited by the mirror in most cases.

    Loads of very detailed info are available on Wikipedia. Just in case, it means: Redundant Array of Independent Disks.

    How to install your system to be able to boot from any Operating System

    Problems

    Problems with booting... numerous emails & posts about this one, that's for sure!!! Real solutions? Not really... In many cases people end up reinstalling their system from Scratch and once in a while even that doesn't work! But smart people have a way to fix their boot sectors without too much hurdle (instead of the hours it takes to install an OS.)

  • Register an application so it automatically starts on reboot

    Always wondered how they automatically restart an application after a reboot under MS-Windows?

    There is a function named RegisterApplicationRestart() that does just that.

    There are flags to tell when your application should be started or under which circumstances.

    For instance, you can start only if something crashed the OS.

    The doc is here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa373347.aspx
