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
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?
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 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)
