Iam trying to install ubuntu on my current windows 10 Desktop. I boot Ubuntu in BIOS which Windows 10 also boots in. The problem is that Ubuntu detects that windows 10 is installed BUT it doesnt give me the option to install ubuntu alongside with my current operating system. I have tried very many diffrent things in BIOS (or UEFI since my motherboard is Uefi). All help, suggestions or answer is very appreciated.
I would like to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 7 on a HP G62 Notebook. Although I have installed  Ubuntu in a dual-boot many times before, I found out that this model has already four partitions.    Partitions:   SYSTEM (NTFS, 199MB, used 66.59MB) Partition without any tag: NTFS (579GM, used 129GB)  RECOVERY (NTFS 16.74 GB, used 2.42GB)  HP_TOOLS (FAT32, 103.34 MB, used 13.23MB)   Since I am not an expert with partitions I would like to get advice on how to do this.  My first idea is this one:   Free some space from /dev/sda2 (I don't know if could also free some other space) delete the HP_Tools partition (I have already created a backup) create an extended partition with the free space in #1 containing three parititions: swap (1gb); / (EXT4, 30GB);  /home (EXT4, 120GB)   Another option is to use wubi instead.  What do you think? Is there any other way to achieve this?  PS: I really think this HP policy of using 4 partitions is not a coincidence  PS: I tried using gparted from the live CD and I got a warning message saying that if I freed some space from /dev/sda2 I could create serious issues in the system
Extension “RANDR” missing on xvfb My system:  $lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS Release:        14.04 Codename:       trusty   Xvfb:  $ dpkg -s xvfb Package: xvfb Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: x11 Installed-Size: 2140 Maintainer: Ubuntu X-SWAT &lt;ubuntu-x@lists.ubuntu.com&gt; Architecture: amd64 Multi-Arch: foreign Source: xorg-server Version: 2:1.15.1-0ubuntu2.7 Provides: xserver   Current problem:  Xvfb do not support RANDR extension, even if I add the flag:  +extension RANDR   If I run xdpyinfo, RANDR is not on the list. It's a missing feature or a bug. I found a reference here with a patch:   And looks like that in other distros like debian, there is already a testing build of Xvfb with support:   I am trying to run a program throught Xvfb, and it returns the following error:  Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display ":99".   The program works if I run it via ssh/command line. The problem appears to be the the lack of support for "RANDR" in xvfb.  My question is: what is the easiest way to get xvfb with "RANDR" support in my system? What is the range of the validity of Coulomb's law? Can different gauge wiring be used in the same circuit? Why is apt-get always using proxy, although no proxy is configured? I am developing a set of scripts, which I want to be present for all users, when I set up a server. But I don't want them in the standard locations like /usr[/local]/[bin],[sbin] etc.  Is there some existing convention for where such scripts should be placed? How to filter by messages, not by conversation? I have been emailing my Gmail account error messages from a project I am working on.   I am trying to use Gmail filters/labels to sort out the class of errors.  But because the subject line is basically always the same even if I have a specific filter for 3 known error cases, the label is applied to the conversation, instead of the specific message.  Therefore, all the errors get all the filters.  I do not yet want to delete the errors, but would rather file them separately.   I have not yet used the NOT contains string yet, but that looks to be non-scalable as I get to the fourth or fifth error case I am done with handling.  Is there any option other than turning off Conversations for all my email?  (I guess I could use one of my spare accounts to turn off conversations and do the work there but would be nice to have such an option). GeoServer cutting off symbols close to tile edges? I want the entries in the TOC for the indices to align with the Chapter entries.

Generating samples from singular Gaussian distribution Let random vector $x = (x_1,...,x_n)$ follow multivariate normal distribution with mean $m$ and covariance matrix $S$. If $S$ is symmetric and positive definite (which is the usual case) then one can generate random samples from $x$ by first sampling indepently $r_1,...,r_n$ from standard normal and then using formula $m + Lr$, where $L$ is the Cholesky lower factor so that $S=LL^T$ and $r = (r_1,...,r_n)^T$.  What about if one wants samples from singular Gaussian i.e. $S$ is still symmetric but not more positive definite (only positive semi-definite). We can assume also that the variances (diagonal elements of $S$) are strictly positive. Then some elements of $x$ must have linear relationship and the distribution actually lies in lower dimensional space with dimension $&lt;n$, right?  It is obvious that if e.g. $n=2, m = \begin{bmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}, S = \begin{bmatrix} 1 &amp; 1 \\ 1 &amp; 1\end{bmatrix}$ then one can generate $x_1 \sim N(0,1)$ and set $x_2=x_1$ since they are fully correlated. However, is there any good methods for generating samples for general case $n&gt;2$? I guess one needs first to be able identify the lower dimensional subspace, then move to that space where one will have valid covariance matrix, then sample from it and finally deduce the values for the linearly dependent variables from this lower-dimensional sample. But what is the best way to that in practice? Can someone point me to books or articles that deal with the topic; I could not find one. I've heard that special relativity makes the concept of magnetic fields irrelevant, replacing them with relativistic effects between charges moving in different velocity frames. Is this true? If so, how does this work? I have a quick question about updating my references from Bibtex.  I am using TexStudio as my Latex editor.  I have to make changes to some of the references.  I put the changes in the "references.bib" file.  I then compile the Bibtex and the main document I'm working on.  Sometimes the changes show up, and sometimes they don't, and I haven't figured out why. I have even gone as far as trying to delete the references by changing the filename, but the original references still appear.  Here's what I put in my main document:   \newpage %Puts in References  \bibliographystyle{unsrt}  \bibliography{references}   My references.bib file shows all the changes I have made.

I want to apply for Schengen visa, but employer NOC which is mandatory document for visa is not available with me I have resigned from my current company and will be joining a new company soon.   Hence, I cannot get a leave approval letter from my current company, and if I decide to join a new company and then request a NOC (No Objection Certificate) it will be late for visa process completion because of my traveling dates.   What can I show to the embassy as an alternative to this NOC document? Recently, the TeX.SE question  got onto the Hot Network Questions list.  Like many questions on TeX.SE, it contains some TeX markup in its title.  Unfortunately, on , this markup gets parsed and rendered as math:    I propose that either:   the entire Hot Network Questions sidebar should be excluded from MathJax parsing by styling it with the tex2jax_ignore class, or at least, any hot questions from TeX.SE should be so excluded from MathJax parsing.   Or I suppose we could always implement , which asks for all questions with TeX in the title to be excluded from Hot Network Questions entirely.  That might be throwing out the baby with the bathwater, though.    Ps. This issue is partially masked by , which causes MathJax not to be rendered in many elements that are hidden by default and revealed using jQuery .show(), such as all but the first five questions in the Hot Network Questions sidebar.  The  user script contains a generic fix for that bug, so users who have it installed will see this issue more frequently, but it occurs even without SOUP whenever a question with TeX markup in the title happens to show up among the top five hot questions that are always visible by default.
