This started as me trying to find the right dropbox version for my system, but now i'm mostly just generally curious and confused because i can't find a clear answer on this.

I am developing an offline installer for all versions of Ubuntu, and I need Ubuntu's default installed packages list. Is there a way to get this information from any server (web server)? Any script to fetch any Ubuntu version's default installed packages list.  I will give the Ubuntu version, and the script will fetch the packages list.  Note: I need at least a server address. I can write a script for this.

I use dropbox a lot, and I'd like to start using my Dropbox account on my work PC, however I want to prevent anyone else from being able to access the files in my dropbox folder other than me on my work PC.  E.g. double clicking my dropbox asks for a password or something on my work PC.  Is this possible? If so, any suggestions?

A user of ours cleared their path, thanks to some directions on the internet.  What is the default path, I am a developer so I have tons of extra stuff in mine, what should my user get on a plain jane one?

So I noticed this question has not been asked directly;  What is this "Swap Area" people keep referring to when it comes to installing Ubuntu?

I see you have succussfully answered this question previously but it is not specific to my system.  I have downloaded your file and created the relevant dump file but I don't know how to analyse it. Can I upload it to you for some advice please?

I'd like to know to see which files are getting backed up by my time machine? I often see a large amount of data being transfered and I'm not sure sure what it is.

I'm new to how Ubuntu works and installed it yesterday alongside Windows 7, but in doing so I have created a few problems. I have partitions for Windows, Ubuntu, System Recovery, and storage for all my files with the intention to access them on either OS, but I don't even see all of my drives listed on Home Folder. Not to mention that  during the Ubuntu instillation I managed to screw up any chance of booting to the Windows side of things at all. I'll fix Windows once I get my hands on a copy in a couple days, but in the mean time any suggestions for accessing my files?  If you need me to find any data about my computer to help you figure out what's wrong with it, please don't hesitate to tell me what I need to show you. Thanks

I have a lot of filesystems:   / on a PCI-E SSD swap on a SATA SSD /media/ned is a RAID5 array /tmp lives on RAM Parts of /home/oli are symlinked and bind-mounted in from ned I also have /media/jeff/ which is RAID1 that I store backups and bind-mount ~/.wine in off.   It's actually a lot more complicated than that. There are all sorts of extra symlinks that I need to untangle in the long run but for now I just need a nice way of taking a path and finding out where it physically lives.

I just read . It talks about downloading an AppImage.     Yes, Linux; the Linux packages is distributed as an .appimage for 32-bit and 64-bit distributions, and should run across all major Linux distributions without any issues. The team currently have no plan to provide a native .deb (or .rpm) installer.   What are AppImages? How do they differ from snaps?

Some time ago Dropbox began to warn me about supporting ext4 as FS only. As a happy BTRFS user I wasn't happy, but have done this:  dropbox stop dd if=/dev/zero of=~/dropbox.img bs=1M count=4096 mkfs.ext4 ~/dropbox.img echo "${HOME}/dropbox.img ${HOME}/Dropbox ext4 rw,async 0 2" | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab rm -rf ~/Dropbox/* sudo mount "${HOME}/Dropbox" sudo chown "${USER}:" "${HOME}/Dropbox"   Everything worked without errors, but Dropbox still says that I should use ext4 for its folder. What am I doing wrong?

I was wondering if anyone knew of free software to take an OS snapshot.  Something that would also compare and list the differences between the two different snapshots.

I just can't find a decent (and free) one. What can I use?

I need an app that tells about file &amp; folder sizes, like what is the biggest file and/or folder on my hard disk, sort this detail from biggest file and/or folder to the smallest &amp; vice versa, also able to tell me about this detail based on the folder that I have chosen.

With no good reason I had a look at my computer's storage going on the apple and About this Mac. Here is the display:    The pink bar doesn't make much sense. It obviously does not represent the 80.67GB of free storage. Two sections correspond to pink; "Photos" and "Backups". I obviously don't have 140.76TB of backups. And probably not on this computer that has only 320GB of storage.  What is going on here?

I think my Ubuntu is a bit broken from messing around with it.  Unfortunately during installation, I did not make a separate partition for /home. Now I need to re-install but want to keep my music and films.  Any ideas...

I can see Dropbox but I can't find Google Drive on my Finder. If I want to sync a file to GDrive, I have to open the folder GDrive by click on the symbol of Gdrive. It's very inconvenient.   I'm wondering if there is a way to display GDrive on the Finder, just like where Dropbox is?
