i just have a problem on ubuntu. when i go to ubuntu Software Center, i can not download any application although i can surf the internet. when i download an app it stops at 10% and then an message appears &lt;1. please help. i am from greece and my computer does not support ubuntu 14,04+.
Recently I have installed an older version of Ubuntu on my old machine. Whenever I try to install any software, I get an error saying it couldn't be found:  $ sudo apt-get install vlc Reading package lists... Done                Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done     E: Couldn't find package vlc
What's the difference between an Application, a Process, and a Service? LIGO has announced the detection of gravitational waves on 11 Feb, 2016. I was wondering why the detection of gravitational waves was so significant?   I know it is another confirmation of general relativity (GR), but I thought we had already confirmed GR beyond much doubt. What extra stuff would finding gravitational waves teach us? Is the detection of gravitational waves significant in and of itself, or is there data which can be extracted from the waves which will be more useful? I know that each new tab on Google Chrome have its own process, but I have 14 chrome.exe processes running actually as I can see it on the Task Manager, and only two tabs are opened on Google Chrome.    Could it be due to Chrome extensions? What other reason can open more chrome.exe process and how to avoid it? I want to make a Launcher that will do privileged (requires root) commands, but I don't want to see the terminal or have to type my password into the terminal. So I found the command, gksudo that allows me to enter my password so that I can escalate my privilege level. Now I want to couple this, so that I can change the partition priority using this command cgpt add -i 6 -P 0 -S 0 /dev/sda (this command is privileged) and have it automatically reboot from this one launcher.  I setup a Luncher like this:  Name: ChromeOS  Description:  Command: gksudo gnome-terminal -e "cgpt add -i 6 -P 0 -S 0 /dev/sda;reboot"  Comment:  But it does not work. Any tips?

The datediff function doesn't handle year boundaries well, plus getting the months and days separate will be a bear.  I know I can do it on the client side relatively easily, but I'd like to have it done in my . what is the total number of distinct arrangements of $n$ oranges and $n$ apples around a round table? I have no idea how to go about. I try unsuccessfully to install the ECW support (mainly to use ECW file in QGIS 2.2). We attempt to follow and adapt the howto provided by .  My first supprise was the repository ubuntugis-unstable is unavailable for trusty and the repository  doesn't have libgdal-ecw-src package. Finally in desperation we add ubuntugis-unstable for the raring distribution in source.list.  And apply the following commands   chmod +x ERDAS-ECW_JPEG_2000_SDK-5.1.1.bin ./ERDAS-ECW_JPEG_2000_SDK-5.1.1.bin # Select option desktop read only sudo cp -r ERDAS-ECW_JPEG_2000_SDK-5.1.1 /usr/local/ sudo ln -s /usr/local/ERDAS-ECW_JPEG_2000_SDK-5.1.1/Desktop_Read-Only/lib/x86/release/libNCSEcw.so /usr/local/lib/libNCSEcw.so sudo ldconfig sudo apt-get install libgdal-ecw-src sudo gdal-ecw-build /usr/local/ERDAS-ECW_JPEG_2000_SDK-5.1.1/Desktop_Read-Only   The ECW format seems to be installed  gdalinfo --formats | grep -i ecw   ECW (rw+): ERDAS Compressed Wavelets (SDK 5.1)   JP2ECW (rw+v): ERDAS JPEG2000 (SDK 5.1)   But .... Gis crash when a ECW raster file is open with the following message :   QGIS died on signal 4Abandon (core dumped)   If anyone have an idea Is it possible to edit the Audit fields on UPDATE? I want to show that the two annuli $$A=\{r&lt;|z-z_0|&lt;R\} $$ $$A'=\{r'&lt;|z-z_0'|&lt;R'\} $$ are conformally equivalent (i.e. there exists a biholomorphic map between the two) iff $$\frac{R}{r}=\frac{R'}{r'}. $$  Sufficiency:  Suppose the ratios of the radii are the same. A suitable scaling (by $\frac{r'}{r}$) will make $A$ congruent to $A'$, and a translation will map the scaled $A$ onto $A'$. This is clearly a conformal homeomorphism.  Necessity:  The annulus $A$ has the following set of periods $$\left\{ \pm \frac{2 \pi}{\log (R/r)} \right\} $$ (this step required some computations which I will omit)  Similarly $A'$ has   $$\left\{ \pm \frac{2 \pi}{ \log(R'/r')} \right\}$$ as its set of periods. Since the set of periods is a conformal invariant. The ratios of the radii must indeed by the same.  Is this proof correct?   Thanks! I made up some integrals to do for fun, and I had a real problem with this one. I've since found out that there's no solution in terms of elementary functions, but when I attempt to integrate it, I end up with infinite values. Could somebody point out where I go wrong?  So, I'm trying to determine: $$ \int{\frac{e^x}{x}} \, dx $$  Integrate by parts, where $u = 1/x$, and $v \, ' = e^x$. Then $u \, ' = - 1/x^2$, and $v=e^x$. So,  $$\int{\frac{e^x}{x}} \, dx = \frac{e^x}{x} + \int{\frac{e^x}{x^2}} \, dx$$  Integrate by parts again, $u = 1/x^2$, $v \, ' = e^x$, so that $u \, ' = -2/x^3$ and $v=e^x$. So,  $$\int{\frac{e^x}{x}} \, dx = \frac{e^x}{x} + \frac{e^x}{x^2} + 2\int{\frac{e^x}{x^3}} \, dx$$  Repeat this process ad infinitum to get,  $$\int{\frac{e^x}{x}} \, dx = \frac{e^x}{x} + \frac{e^x}{x^2} + 2 \left( \frac{e^x}{x^3} + 3 \left( \frac{e^x}{x^4} + 4 \left( \frac{e^x}{x^5} + \, \cdots \right) \right) \right) $$  Expanding this gives,  $$\int{\frac{e^x}{x}} \, dx = \frac{e^x}{x} + \frac{e^x}{x^2} + \frac{2e^x}{x^3} + \frac{6 e^x}{x^4} + \frac{24 e^x}{x^5} + \cdots $$  And factoring that gives,  $$\int{\frac{e^x}{x}} \, dx = \frac{e^x}{x} \left(  1 + \frac{1}{x} + \frac{2}{x^2} + \frac{6}{x^3} + \frac{24}{x^4} + \cdots \right) $$  Now, considering the series itself, the ratio between the $n^{th}$ term and the $(n-1)^{th}$ term = $\Large \frac{n}{x}$. Eventually, $n$ will be larger than $x$, so the ratio between successive terms will be positive, so (assuming $x$ is positive), the series diverges, meaning (and I'm sure everybody will cringe upon seeing notation used like this), that:  $$\int{\frac{e^x}{x}} \, dx = \frac{e^x}{x} \left( \infty \right) = \infty $$ Infinite metric space has open set $U$ which is infinite and its complement is infinite Let $(X,d)$ be a metric space where $X$ is an infinite set. Prove that the space has an open set $U$ such that both $U$ and its complement are infinite sets.   I have considered if $d$ is the discrete metric, then one such $U$ exists. But if $d$ is not discrete, how do we find such $U$? I downloaded the iso file for XUbuntu. I created a live usb using Pen Drive Linux. I turned on my computer, booted to the XUbuntu installation screen, and selected "check disk for defects".  A minute later, it says that it found one defect. How do I figure out what this defect is?

How can I compile different .tex file on click on typeset in TeXShop? (MacTeX 2011) My problem is that I want to have different .tex files for the preamble, the presentation aroundings (my target is a beamer PDF file) and the content of the presentation.  Mostly I'll be working on the content file. I even think about partitioning this content .tex file into several chapter files for a better overview. My problem with this solution is that I have to open the presentation.tex file to typeset the whole beamer PDF for looking at the results of my previous changes on the content files. (My presentation.tex file includes the preamble and the content.)  Is there any way to get TeXShop to always typeset one particular file (my presentation.tex) although I'm currently working on a different one (e.g. the content.tex)?  A shortcut? A command in the .tex file? An option in TeXShop? Anything? No internet connection after ubuntu server 20.04 install, ifconfig not available I recently installed Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS on my desktop, and found out there was no internet connection even though I had the LAN cable connected. ifconfig and iwconfig failed saying the corresponding packages net-tools and wireless-tools were not installed.
