Where can I download vmware-vdiskmanager for Ubuntu without installing vmware workstation?
need to resize and .vmdk and converting to virtualbox is not an option.
On Windows I use an AutoHotKey script to tile the active window to the left half of the screen, the right half, or a few other options.
Does Ubuntu/Gnome have a program that would allow me to do that?
If not, do you have an idea how to create this programmatically, or at least can point me to a resource?
Note:
uname -a

Hi, I'm running ubuntu 9.10 which has gcc4 (libstdc++6) installed, and I need to install a program that requires libstdc++5 that comes with gcc3. I don't see gcc-3 listed when I run "apt-cache search" so:
Is it necessary to install gcc-3 to achieve libstdc++5 ? If so where can I get it ?
Is there a way to install just libstdc++5
Would a soft link to libstdc++6 do or is it not recommended ?
Thanks
I am trying to get my locally assigned IP address from Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with ifconfig and what I'm getting is my external IP address (in other words, it's the same IP I see on whatismyip.com)
When running ifconfig eth0, inet addr shows my external IP address instead of the local address.
How do I get my local IP address ?

Thanks in advance!

I created a partition on USB harddisk in windows and it reports to be an NTFS partition.
Yet in ubuntu 9.10 fdisk says it a FAT16 partition. If I mount with -t ntfs I see nothing, but if I mount without it I see all the files.
Can anyone tell me whats going on here?
Windows computer disk management definately says its NTFS, and a quick look at the raw data suggests it is NTFS, as I know the FAT16 very well.

I saw the intel-microcode in the ubuntu repositories and was wondering if it was worth installing on my Yorkfield-6M based system. If so, what are the benefits from this package?

my video card has two DVI sockets, but i only use single monitor configuration. Now, i think the main DVI socket might be busted, so i want to try to enable the other as the main one, however, i don't know how to achieve that. I tried just plugging the monitor in that socket but it won't just auto-detect (it would have been way too easy to just work)
I noticed that the username I used to install Ubuntu got added to a bunch of groups in the /etc/group file. I'm getting rid of unneeded accounts. Would anything break if I removed that first account?
I installed Ubuntu on my external hard drive but it won't boot on my laptop. It works fine on my desktop but not my laptop. It says it can't find root... what do i do?
i just installed a ubuntu 12.04 server on a 2008 R2 Hyper-V server and all is fine (networking/storage ...). There is just one thing, when i halt my linux (using "sudo halt"), i can see on the console that the system is halted but the vm status on hyper-v is still "started". Then i need to stop it on the hyper-v management tool.
Anybody has an idea on how to properly stop this VM on hyper-V automatically ?
Thanks,
Alex
