I have read this article:
https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/user-management.html
But it doesn't go into depth with the privileges section.
I need to know how to set privileges of me (as a user).
I am the only user, but I want access to everything, but I don't want to manage my VPS logged in as root. So I am creating a username.
Anybody have a list of privileges, what they mean and how to set them?
Thanks

I'm using VMware Studio 2 to create virtual appliances.
Now we want to make an appliance of a 64 bit Ubuntu distro, but it's not in the template list, like Redhat 64bit and CentOS 64bit.
Is there a way to do this?
I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10 Edition in VMWare Fusion; the host is Mac OS X. I installed it successfully and I was even able to use. After shutting it down and reopening it, it no longer works. Here's what I see:
I've checked the Virtual Machine settings. It appears as running. I waited for a long time, but there no response yet. Is there anything I can do apart from reinstalling it?
Hi.
I've just made the switch to Ubuntu on my main PC and I've been looking for a media player that can:
Play all the usual video formats
Rate (and ideally, tag) each file
Display thumbnails for each file
Other than that there isn't much I'm after.
Banshee comes close, but doesn't display thumbnails.
I've Google'd lots but I'm running out of search terms to try.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Cheers!
What's a good C and GDK+ 2 integrated development environment (IDE) for developing in Ubuntu?
Please state Pros and Cons for each suggestion.
Notes:
I'm used to using Visual C++ for Windows and C++
On Linux, I usually use gcc and vi (I'd want something friendlier than GDB)
Thanks

Is there a low price video card that has 5.1 and optical in that works with Ubuntu?

I am setting up a generic Ubuntu server and am trying to figure out the (best) way to partition the machine. Again, this is just a generic one:
The default drive is 20GB.
Some guides show:
Separate /home, /usr, /var and /tmp partitions
Another one suggested something like this:
/ 4GB
/boot 512MB
/tmp 1GB
/home 5GB
/usr 5GB
/var 5GB
What is the best way to accomplish this?
My Ubuntu 8.10 crashed due to the overheating problem of the CPU. After reboot, under gnome, all the files cannot be removed, their properties cannot be viewed and they can only be opened, although all are still fine under terminal. I was wondering why is that and how can I fix it?
Thanks and regards
