I use Ubuntu in a machine I own and in a machine I only have standard user permissions ( not admin). Is there any way to format a usb to ext4 and make it work (file ownership problems) if I cannot run sudo commands on the second machine? Ideally the solution would work on any other Ubuntu/Linux with whatever kind of account.
Using Ubuntu 11.10, how do I format an external or USB drive? I don't find an option to 'format' when I right click. In the new version, the drives don't come up on the desktop, but instead come on the Launcher.

No package php-imap available on CentOS 7 I'm running a dedicated server with CentOS 7 64bit, here is the output when trying to install IMAP:    yum install php-imap   Loaded plugins: fastestmirror   Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile    * base: ftp.ciril.fr    * extras: ftp.ciril.fr    * updates: ftp.ciril.fr   No package php-imap available.

Error: Nothing to do Commutator subgroup and cyclic normal subgroup I have installed Ubuntu Server on an old desktop, and I'm new to this.  I had set it up and was trying to connect through Putty but that was not working.  When I tried ifconfig there was no eth0 IP address, and logging onto the router showed the only device connected by ethernet is the printer.  However, the ethernet cable is plugged into the server and is showing the green light by it.  I tried opening /etc/networking/interfaces but this shows the following:  source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*  # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback   I tried adding 'auto eth0' after this and saving but made no difference, and have tried sudo ifconfig eth0 up which didn't do anything either.  sudo lshw -C network says that the network is DISABLED.  Any ideas to help get this up and running?  EDIT: Running command lspci -knn | grep Eth -A3 results in the following:  02:05.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

We also have $h_1^{-1}(h_2^{-1}h_1h_2) \in H_1$, because $h_2^{-1}h_1h_2 \in h_2^{-1}H_1h_2 = H_1$. Similarly, we have $(h_1^{-1}h_2^{-1}h_1)h_2 \in H_2$. Therefore  $$ h_1^{-1}h_2^{-1}h_1h_2 \in H_1 \cap H_2 = \{1_G\} $$  and so $h_1^{-1}h_2^{-1}h_1h_2 = \{1_G\}$. Let's first multiply everything on the left by $h_1$  $$h_1^{-1}h_2^{-1}h_1h_2 = \{1_G\}$$ $$ h_1 h_1^{-1}h_2^{-1}h_1h_2 = h_1 \{1_G\}$$ $$ h_2^{-1}h_1h_2 = h_1 \{1_G\}$$   Multiply both sides on the left by $h_2$ giving us  $$ h_1h_2 = h_2 h_1 $$  The bit I don't get is right at the beginning. Why is this correct: "We also have $h_1^{-1}(h_2^{-1}h_1h_2) \in H_1$, because $h_2^{-1}h_1h_2 \in h_2^{-1}H_1h_2 = H_1$." I am running on a dual core AMD E450 CPU. When I tried to run a 64-bit OS that requires hardware virtualization using VirtualBox, it showed me an error message that "AMD-V is not enabled".    My AMD processor is supposed provide AMD-V support, but I can find no option for enabling AMD-V in BIOS.    How can I solve this problem? How can I enable AMD-V for my CPU?

After installing Windows 10, every time I get a kernel update or I run the update-grub2 it always shows Windows 7 or Windows Recovery Environment instead of Windows 10.  How do I fix this permanently? Why does copying the same amount of data take longer if spread across many separate files? I noticed that copying 24Mb worth of data from one folder to another took about 30 seconds because (I'm assuming this is the reason) it was over 1,000 separate files. Copying 24Mb shouldn't take so long. Why does the number of files make a different?  I'm running Windows 7 on a MacBook (4GB ram, Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P7450 @ 2.13GHz, 32-bit Operating System)  EDIT: NTFS is the file system used on the drive "To which", "by which", "on which" etc I have come across the phrases like "to which","for which", "by which", "on which" and so on(using a preposition with a relative pronoun).   e.g. The chair on which the body was found..  Could someone please explain if there's a particular rule to be followed when building/using them?   Can I use any preposition before 'which'?  What if I say "The chair which the body was found on"? How would I decide which preposition to be put? Can I use other relative pronouns too?  Thanks in advance.

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes   Is there a way to avoid that or are we doomed to connect at least once on every server from every server manually? I came across this :     Unbelievable as it may seem, many individuals that fought in the   American Revolution were still alive in 1839, the year the world was introduced to photography. (choose the error - the 'answer' is in bold)   It noted that the reason "that fought" is wrong is that 'The relative pronoun “that” may not be used to refer to people (“individuals”) and should be replaced with the relative pronoun “who.”'   I had thought that the word "that" could refer to both people and objects (while which was reserved for objects and who reserved for people). Am I wrong? Cardinality of the set of all real functions of real variable How does one compute the cardinality of the set of functions $f:\mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ (not necessarily continuous)? 1.I will study hard until I get a high score on this exam. 2.I will study hard until I've gotten a high score on this exam.  I think these sentences are grammatically correct. but if I add a specific time, I think these sentences have to be only this one:  3.I will study hard until I get a high score on this exam on July 25th.  And how about these?  a. I'd like to watch all of the holocaust movies present in the world until I've become an expert on it. b. I'd like to watch all of the holocaust movies present in the world until I become an expert on it.  Since there's no a word representing a specific time, both of them are okay, right? And what I'd like to know is the difference between &quot;have gotten&quot; and &quot;get&quot;. What I know about them is we can use &quot;future perfect&quot; to refer to unspecific future event that might happen before some accident. but &quot;get&quot; refers to future event that could be either a specific scheduled event or unspecific future event. that's why if I add a specific time mentioning, I have to use &quot;get&quot;. Setting up a download page requiring a user to fill a form before downloading anything In the Drupal site I'm setting up, there's a Download page containing several links to download softwares.   What is the best way to "bind" the softwares to the page, put them anywhere online and place a direct link in the page?   Does anyone know a module that would show a contact form when a user clicks one of the "Download" buttons, preventing him from downloading unless he properly completes the form?  Our goal is to receive the contact information of any person downloading our software. Why is "glide symmetry" its own type? Artin's Algebra pages 155 &amp; 156 list the types of symmetry of a plane figure as:   Reflective Rotational Translational Glide   He then goes on to say "Figures such as wallpaper patterns may have two talk about other figures having combinations of independent" symmetries. EDIT: He says "... having combinations of independent translational symmetries". See Joriki's answer.  Why doesn't glide symmetry count as having two independent (reflection + translation) symmetries? If we're going to count combinations, why not have rotation + translation etc. as their own types too?
