Ubuntu Bugs in Release Candidate – Hating
Oct 28th
There are several posts going around about a bug in the Ubuntu Karmic release candidate. One post details the lack of the 64 bit installer being able to detect multiple sata hard drives.
“The 9.10RC Karmic Koala ubiquity disk partitioning steps (#4, #5 in the installation screens) seem to have regressions when booting the AMD64 ubuntu live desktop CD on systems with multiple disks.
This is a shame of a bug to be exploited by haters. Once Ubuntu is up and running it cannot be compared to Windows. It is much more stable, will run for months without needing to be shutdown. There is no worry of viruses, and spyware, and 99% of applications have a version that will run. The only two applications, that I can think of, that will not run on Linux is iTunes, and Quicken. THERE ARE ALTERNATIVES THOUGH, and always a way to do what you want to do.
The only reason Windows is liked more than Linux is because the majority of humanity is NOT TECH SAVVY. If a problem is encountered in Linux, Google is your friend. There is always a solution! It is worthwhile to find the solution, to get Ubuntu working, because of the benifits.

1) No more viruses or spyware. There are very few bad things that can happen when using Linux.
2) Stability, and no need to defragment. Your machine will run for months or years without needing to reboot.
One of the only reason to use Windows is for games. Drivers for top end video cards, and the games themselves, are generally only supported on Windows.
Ubuntu Sendmail Boot Bug
Feb 23rd
There are two bugs that I currently aware of regarding the sendmail boot process. The first and simplest deals with your hostname. In Ubuntu, the default configuration of sendmail and apache required a fully qualified domain name. You can adjust your FQDN manually in the /etc/hostname file. The proper format is: name.domain.com Save the file, and you will not get any errors on an apache or sendmail reboot. Also there is sometimes an issue when sendmail tries to reconfigure its cf file during boot. I don’t experience this issues, but its worth mentioning due to its simple workaround. Just delete the two following files, and sendmail will not re-configure on boot (you will have to do it manually if you change its settings): /etc/network/if-down.d/sendmail /etc/network/if-up.d/sendmail
WordPress MU (Multi-User) Plugin Menu Enable/Disable Bug Workaround
Aug 26th
As reported in my previous post, WordPress MU has a bug where if you enable the Plugin menu, then disable it, you will not be able to re-enable it. To re-enable the Plugin menu, go into your PHPMyAdmin interface, open the database for your WordPress MU site, open the wp_sitemeta table. Switch to the browser tab, rather than the structure tab. Locate the menu_items meta key. It should have an empty meta value, based on what I have observed, and what others are saying. Delete this meta key by hitting the red x. Now you will be able to re-enable your Plugins menu. Note that if you re-disable the Plugin menu option, you will have to re-delete the menu_items meta key in order to re-enable it
A quick and dirty solution to one headache of a simple problem. I expect this bug to be resolved in the next version of WordPress MU.

Clean Install Fedora Bug
Aug 20th
If you just installed Fedora Core 6, or Fedora 7, and when you boot the system the GDM (Gnome Display Manager) does not load, and your stuck at the command prompt, I recommend reinstalling the OS. You can try and start the GDM by logging in and typing: sudo service gdm start But most likely the simplest course of action is to do a clean install. It will work eventually, I promise
Also make especially sure that you have selected the installation of a Desktop Environment, ie. KDE, Gnome, XFCE, ect…..
