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?
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 need to have two instances of Tomcat 6 running on Ubuntu 10.04. I know it should be doable pretty simply by something like:
copy /var/lib/tomcat6 to /var/lib/tomcat6-2
modify ports in /var/lib/tomcat6-2/conf/server.xml
copy /etc/init.d/tomcat6 to /etc/init.d/tomcat6-2
modify /etc/init.d/tomcat6-2...
...but my problem is that I'm unsure what I should modify in /etc/init.d/tomcat6-2. Chaging the NAME in the beginning of the file clearly is not enough.

I was using my LCD monitor with my laptop properly with Windows 7. But I am facing a problem in Ubuntu.
It connects in a proper way but on pressing backspace it automatically moves back to my laptop screen. Sometimes pressing any key moves back to my laptop screen.
How can I fix this behavior?
My only issue that is stopping me from moving to Linux is the dual monitor support. If I use TwinView, maximizing an application causes it to take over both monitors, not maximize in the current monitor the way it works in Windows. If I use two separate X windows, certain programs default to a specific monitor with no way of moving it to the other desktop. Has anyone else had these issues? Are there any detailed dual monitor resources.for Linux/Ubuntu I can read?
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

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)

hi
I want to setup a system for a domain which enable me to charge money into user's account for printing.
I am using Ubuntu server 8.04 and installed samba server for creating domain but I don't know how to handle my problem.
does anyone has any idea?
I have a small java project that handle connections.
In order to run it from the terminal I have to cd into the folder that contains the source and run the following command:
java -cp classes com.packagename.mainclass
Where classes is the folder that contains the classes.
I want ubuntu to run this application on startup, is there a Java command I can use? Or am I just better off creating a shell script?
Thanks!
