I had 3 Partition(C(150gb),D(350gb),E(400gb)) and Windows 8.1 installed on C drive. I replaced Windows 8 with Ubuntu 13.04.  Now I have only one file system(900gb).  Is there any way to access data of D and E partition from Ubuntu? Is it possible to get back D,E partition if i replace Ubuntu with windows? Has Ubuntu formatted my entire hard disk?  $df -h /dev/sda2       909G  2.7G  861G   1% / none            4.0K     0  4.0K   0% /sys/fs/cgroup udev            3.9G  4.0K  3.9G   1% /dev tmpfs           788M  860K  787M   1% /run none            5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock none            3.9G  156K  3.9G   1% /run/shm none            100M   44K  100M   1% /run/user /dev/sda1        93M  121K   93M   1% /boot/efi
I have a Toshiba satellite A-200 laptop with a Vista OS on it with 4 NTFS partitions  (C:) Vista  (D:) Entertainment  (E:) Work  (F:) Sources   and I wanted to start using Ubuntu instead. So I tried it first from the live CD and everything was OK and all the partitions were shown and working and so I decided to install Ubuntu to replace Vista on the (C:) drive. After I did that I can no longer find my folders and files on the (D:), (E:), (F:) partitions and the only file system that is shown is one 198 GB although my HDD is 320 GB.  I can't access the lost data on the remaining 120 GB which I hope is still there and not totally lost  I am now working from the live CD but I am unable to install testdisk. Can I recover the Vista partitions by the product recovery CD to get my laptop back to the factory settings? Can I recover the NTFS partitions using a recovery program for Windows or will that make the problem worse?   I need these data badly as I don't have a backup for them.
Invariance of a maximally entangled state under unitary operation $U \otimes U^\dagger$ GNOME 3.26 - Clicking one window brings another in the foreground (Ubuntu 17.10) I'm on Ubuntu 17.10 with GNOME 3.26.  Often I have windows tiled on the left and right side of the screen. A typical setup is to have a browser and text editor on the left, a PDF reader and terminal on the right.  Something I've seen happen very often: I'm reading the PDF on the right, having the window in focus. The text editor on the left. When I click on the text editor to write something, it brings forward another window on the right (say the file browser), covering the PDF reader.  This seems to have something to do with the Alt-Tab view history.  My question is: Is it possible to remove the automatic bring-to-front of windows? I don't understand why unrelated windows are brought to the front when I click on another application. How can I edit/create new launcher items in Unity by hand? Will Unity allow making custom launcher icons from .desktop files or via menu editing system? (Right now the launcher doesn't give the option to "keep in launcher" on all programs.  For some programs I use, I have to make custom launchers or .desktop files.  For instance, daily blender builds are generally just folders with an executable.  In basic Gnome or KDE, I can make a new menu entry with the menu editing system. Then, I can also add it to Docky either from the menu or by dragging a .desktop file to it. Unity launcher doesn't support drag and drop, so thats not a bug or anything, but when I open a .desktop file, it has unpredictable results. Most time it will not have "keep in launcher". Sometime it will have a pinnable item without the .desktop's icon, and if I pin the item to the launcher, it will not call upon the program again after closing it. I've also gotten it to just work with a .desktop file for celtx. I have 2 graphics cards on my laptop. One is IGP and another discrete.   I've written a shell script to to turn off the discrete graphics card.  How can I convert it to systemd script to run it at start-up? DateTime.TryParse century control C# Start Ubuntu Unity With Dash Open Number of permutations of $n$ elements where no number $i$ is in position $i$ Why aren't hash values for "nothing" (empty) defined as all zeros? Any decent hash algorithm will produce basically "random like" values for any given input including the empty input.  For example MD5 produces d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e on an empty input.  I wonder, however, why the MD5 algorithm wasn't defined to have a final step where the output is XORed with d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e. This should not affect the cryptographic strength of the hash algorithm, and it would have the convenient property that a hash of all zeros represented a zero input.  Would it simply just because adding that step would slow the hash down a bit? How many Shutter Clicks on a New Camera considered normal? How many Shutter Clicks on a New Camera considered normal?    I purchased a quotes new Nikon D750 and checked the shutter count and it has 264 Shutter Clik count on it.    Is that suspect of a returned purchase or used camera? Script to Notify me when something happens on a shared directory The situation is:  I have a shared directories from many other machines where other users work on.  I need to be notified whenever a user create, modify or delete a directory or file from his local directory which I share using smb...  It looks like the folder actions in the MAC systems..  Is there a software that do that?!  If there is no such application, any help in writing a script for that is appreciated..  Thanks in advanced... How do I get Perl to read the contents of a given directory into an array?   can do it, but is there some method using 'scandir' or a similar term? I have been learning English for 7 years now, and I have read so many grammar books with rules, telling the difference between Present Perfect and Past Simple and I still find it hard to distinguish them.   On paper, it is easy, if it is not a certain (exact) time in the past without any time markers (yesterday, a month ago, etc) it is past simple. Yes, but outside the classroom it is really harder than this . I have heard many people speaking how they want to, mixing the tenses.   So, I will give these sentences which i have heard to be constructed differently, please, if someone can explain the difference to me.     Have you enjoyed the party? / Did you enjoy the party?      I have given the documents today. / I gave the documents today.      I have done this when I have revised it. / I did it when I revised it      What did you do today? / What have you done today ?   Is it possible to use past simple without mentioning a definite time in the past  (without the time markers)?     It has been 3 years since we moved house. / It has been 3 years since we have moved house.      I know him since we met each other/ I know him since we have met each other   Correct me if some of the sentences are grammatically wrong! There is a type and search drodown which will appear after user type in the value. I need to click on the dropdown which contains the name of the drop down field.   The problem here is that there is no unique attribute present (No unique class, no unique name) &amp; the id keeps on changing after every login so cannot take id also. Boy goes insane during space travel I'm trying to remember the name of a short story I read about 25 years ago or so. I'd also like to know of any collections it appeared in.   The details I recall involve a family who are embarking on a hyperspace journey. To undertake this journey you have to be put to sleep. One of the children pretends to be asleep, and when the jump is complete the child has gone insane. From the child's point of view the jump lasted for an eternity while in reality it was only a few seconds. Date Difference in php on days? Is it correct to say "I write children books" (not possessive case)? Although Children's books is what everybody says, I would like to understand why the genitive case is applied in such case.  If I write books for children, children is an adjective here; not the owners of my book! The word "children" just defines or characterizes the type of books I write. Therefore, it's an adjective.   So, I understand that genitive/possessive case ("I write children's book")  is incorrect grammar.  My question is: is the genitive case here really accepted as right? If I use "I write children books" (following the grammar principle) as as I say "I write pets books" (books about pets, and not possessions of pets) - would I be incorrect? Why? Examples of Bayesian and frequentist approach giving different answers Note: I am aware of  differences between Bayesian and frequentist statistics. For example &quot;what is the probability that the coin on the table is heads&quot; doesn't make sense in frequentist statistics, since it has either already landed heads or tails -- there is nothing probabilistic about it. So the question has no answer in frequentist terms. But such a difference is specifically not the kind of difference I'm asking about. Rather, I would like to know how their predictions for well-formed questions actually differ in the real world, excluding any theoretical/philosophical differences such as the example I mentioned above. So in other words: What's an example of a question, answerable in both frequentist and Bayesian statistics, whose answer is different between the two? (e.g. Perhaps one of them answers &quot;1/2&quot; to a particular question, and the other answers &quot;2/3&quot;.) Are there any such differences?  If so, what are some examples?  If not, then when does it actually ever make a difference whether I use Bayesian or frequentist statistics when solving a particular problem? Why would I avoid one in favor of the other? How do you subtract Dates in Java? Proving by induction that $1^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 + \ldots + n^3 = \left[\frac{n(n+1)}{2}\right]^2$ Need guidance on this proof by mathematical induction. I am new to this type of math and don't know how exactly to get started.   $$ 1^3  +  2^3  +  3^3  +  \ldots  +  n^3  =  \left[\frac{n(n+1)}{2}\right]^2 $$ Most people with a degree in CS will certainly know what . It helps us to measure how well an algorithm scales.   But I'm curious, how do you calculate or approximate the complexity of your algorithms?
