I installed Ubuntu 9.10 on an old PC, Dell dimension L550r, PIII500, 512M ram.
There is a problem that monitor is not detected. I could logon as 'xterm' type, but the window size is only 1/4 of screen. When I logon as 'GNOME', it seems screen is not refreshed. media player window is blank, but can see a static image if minimize and restore window.
Fedora 17, Gnome 3.4.2, apcupsd-3.14.10-4.fc17.i686
I'm mystified as to why the wall messages from apcupsd don't appear on my terminal when other wall messages do.
Permission is turned on:
$ mesg
is y
If I start a second terminal and logon as root, then send a wall message (26 chars), the messages appears on my "normal user" terminal and the "root" terminal.
I just did a clean install of Ubuntu 12.04 on a new hard drive.
1) I set a password for myself as administrator and would like to change it, because it's too long, but I see no way to do so.
I seem to be getting a lot of these entries in the Security event viewer. Around 8-12 every hour. I am wondering if a) I should be worried about it?
We have an OpenServer 5.0.5 system that has worked forever, but I'm hearing complaints of logon delays for users now. Normally they would telnet in and the logon screen would pop up, but now it sometimes takes a minute or more, and the user must hit the enter key to get it to appear. Everything seems fine when they get on the system.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
print "=======jnLink v.1.0======="
x=raw_input('User name: ')
y=raw_input('Password: ')
if x=='Jon' and y=='turtles21':
print "Logged On, Welcome Jonathan Nunamaker."
else:
print "logon failed"
c=1
while c <10:
print "Logon Failed"
Hello:I have just finished installing CrunchBang 64 bit stable and during the install I was never asked to enter a "root" password. I was asked to create a user account and user password.I have just discovered by using synaptic for updates that my "root" password is the same as my user password.How do I change the "root" password?
When I go to the logon screen, it only give me the option for my local account, guest account or remote account. I have my Ubuntu 12.10 box joined to an AD domain with Likewise-open. I can login with my AD credentials via SSH, but how do I get into the desktop?
UPDATE - Ok, so it seems that it added my AD user automatically? All of a sudden it appeared in the list.
Hello,
