Quote from Velociround :What about:
Right click - copy file
Go to the folder you want
Right click - paste file

Sure, if he has permission to put things in the folder. In linux you have a root user, which have access to everyting in the file system. Normal users can only store files in their own home directory.

Quote from dawesdust_12 :Alt+F2 then "gnome-terminal", then the sudo chmod 644 <directory> will do it.

644 is default permission for files, 755 is default for dirs. With 644 he wouldn't even be able to enter the directory. If he wants to avoid being root to copy files into it, he must take ownership of the directory with sudo chown -R <user>:<group> <directory>

For example: sudo chown -R noob:root <directory>

Quote from STROBE :Thanks - but where the hell do I type that in when I'm sat looking at an Ubuntu desktop?

Not very familiar with Ubuntu, but drop to a terminal window, type sudo apt-get install mc, then sudo mc, and use that to move files around. I'm sure it can be done from desktop too, but I'm a shell fan.

Quote from STROBE :So I've installed Apache from the package manager thingy, and the www directory to put sites in works (I get the default "it works!" page when accessing it across the LAN) but the directory appears to be owned by root, and I can't do shit with it - not even drop the phpbb files into it, let alone change the permissions. Any clues?

Use sudo to copy them as root.

And btw Gentoo/Portage ftw, even if it takes a while with all the compiling. But once you have your system set up it isn't that much work really. Real benefit is that you can totally optimize the installation for your cpu and get the most speed out of it.

Quote from chavm481 :awwwwwwwwwwwwww ... now what?
btw, anyone know what this means?

You're badly infected with malware. Looks like some are removed, but it still tries to load it at startup. I suggest you run a scan with a couple of antimalware programs immediately. I recommend these:

Tap F8 at boot, select "Last known good configuration", and see if that helps.

Is it streaming right now? For me it just says "connecting to media" and nothing happens.

Your bios has an option for virtualization, but it will only show up if you have a cpu that supports it (according to the manual for your motherboard).

Check in your bios if there's an option to enable/disable it. If not, see if there's a newer bios for your mb that supports it.

Quote from Migz :I know the centre one wont make any sound as its not plugged in, but i mean the two rear ones still dont make any sound :/

Quote from Migz :my rear two and centre(which isnt yet plugged in) arent playing anything. Frown Anybody know how to fix this?

Not plugged in = no sound Big grin

Try to run Windows Update in case there's updated drivers available. Or install the Vista drivers. Or setup your speaker configuration in the control panel.

Not so many visible changes in this build I would think, since they're mostly concentrating on fixing bugs and optimizing it. People do say it has better compatibility with games, and is a bit faster in general usage.

Quote from danthebangerboy :I think they mean if you never had a sig and then added one for the first time that it would only show on posts you made since adding it, but any change to your sig will also be changed on any post you made since you first had a sig.

That's correct.

Ok, here's how it works. When a user is new on the forum, and has no signature set, it will of course not be shown on posts. When the user sets a signature, all his new posts will show the signature, but they will not show on his old posts written prior to the signature set. That's how vBulletin handles signatures. I would prefer it to be shown on old posts as well, like in most other forum software, but like I said, it's not how it works in vBulletin, and to change that would require code changes from the vBulletin makers.

First of all, congratulations for the 5 year anniversary. It's a great achievement keeping a team alive for that long. Secondly, it's very sad that you're closing down, but with the current state of LFS I understand your move. I fear other teams might go that route too if something doesn't happen soon with the development of LFS. Anyway, best of luck to your members whatever they decide to do in the future, may it be continuing driving in LFS on their own or in other teams, or stop completely.

Quote from scipy : As far as Scawen is concerned, for Christ's sakes.. get some proper beta testers. You have a god damn Norbi playing this game and if anyone bothered to actually CHECK for some FACTS you would find the following:

Exactly! Get some fresh blood into the beta testing team! Hell, most of the current beta testers I suspect are not even active in LFS anymore.

About the tyre heating thing.... mmmm.... I'll just say there's room for improvements. Anymore detailed will just get you flamed to death by 15 year old fanboys who's never driven a real car before.
