I am getting a web server setup at home on an older AMD 2400+ desktop. I have Ubuntu 11.04 installed and running however, after a time, I can no longer browse to the server. When I go to the keyboard and press a key, everything magically works again.   I have looked through the BIOS and I am not seeing any power saving features enabled. Is there anything like that in Ubuntu? Can it be disabled?  I don't have any GUI installed. This is console only.

I'd like to create a customized Ubuntu Server 12.04 ISO but couldn't find a clear approach on how to do it. I see that Ubuntu-builder is a very good app to create a customized Ubuntu Desktop, but what about Ubuntu Server?

I downloaded the server version of Ubuntu from Ubuntu's official site. Created a Bootable USB from the ISO file I downloaded. I connected through Internet using DHCP in the installation process. While I was installing it on my Desktop Computer (pentium D 1 GB RAM) I have this error "Bad Archive Mirror".   I also found 2-3 questions with same problem on forum but I didn't get solution of my problem from them.

I still have Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Desktop on my systems.  10.04 Desktop has reached end of life.  I understand that means there will be no more security updates for this product.  Is that correct?  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server is still supported for another year.  Will the security updates for the Server work for the Desktop?   If I do an update from the 10.04 LTS Desktop, what gets updated?  Any kernel updates?

I upgraded to Ubuntu 19.04 from 17.10 and now I do not have anything on my desktop at all. I am running this on Virtual Box 6. I know enough about Unix to be dangerous, I just use it for developing websites.    From looking around various articles I have tried these commands as suggested but nothing has worked, any ideas?  From SSH I have tried these:  sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop sudo apt install --reinstall gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons sudo apt install --reinstall gnome

The first thing I did after installing 16.04 LTS was to change my update server to Main Server. I can not find a similar option in Ubuntu 18.04.  How do I change it?

I setup a LAMP server on my desktop Ubuntu install for testing web applications. How do I set it to only run when I tell it to rather than at startup? It is not used as a production web server but instead for testing PHP scripts I write before pushing them to my public web server.

How to install  on Ubuntu?   Is there a way to use apt-get install?   I only have command line access to my server. How do I install Anaconda on Ubuntu 14.04 from the command line?

After doing a man apt-get and cursory Google search it's not clear how I find new programs to install (from the internet) using apt-get (which is amazingly powerful and simple coming from another Linux distro).  I'm using Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS (an inherited system used for some random work), so no GUI.  Anyone have quick advice here?

I have a shared hosting. I have access to shell. The OS is Ubuntu, and I want to check whether it is the server version or desktop version.  When I log in through shell, it shows following information:  Linux [server-name] 2.6.32-24-generic #39-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 28 06:07:29 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS

I have an install of Ubuntu server, I was recently fooling around with it, and as all learning processes do, I messed a few things up.   I would this box to be secure and reliable in the future, So I have decided to do a clean install of the system. Is there a way I can do it over the network (PCs and a router) without having to connect a monitor, and burning the cd?  Basically a network install after I completely remove the previous copy of Ubuntu 10.04?  Thoughts? Please and thank you.

Hi everyone I'm attempting to install spotify, I've been running linux for less than 24 hours so please cut me some slack if this seems trivial. Here is a link to the webpage  and the example script.         Add this line to your list of repositories by editing your /etc/apt/sources.list    deb http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free    If you want to verify the downloaded packages, you will need to add our public key  sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 94558F59    Run apt-get update  sudo apt-get update    Install spotify!      sudo apt-get install spotify-client      would someone be nice enough to walk me through this? I'm not even sure where to start.

I just finished installing Ubuntu 14.04 and Gnome Shell sudo apt-get install gnome-shell ubuntu-gnome-desktop, however when I checked what version has been installed I read 3.9.90: is this correct?   Isn't Ubuntu 14.04 supposed to ship with gnome 3.10 at least? What am I missing?
