dont install stuff from the site -- go to System>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager and enter the name of the software there (and may i also reccomend VLC for a video player
one folder per share
or u cld just mount the //10.0.0.44/ to a folder on its own -- but that may give a superblock erroryou can just leave em remove those options from the fstab line
10 gig instead of 120 ... what over the share on the local disk ...
Ill assume the local disk as the SMB service in Linux pwns M$ own Cifs/SMB client
--- mayb u only formatted 10gb of the disk
get a program called gparted / gnome partition manager (from synaptic) and it shall tell u -- and let u expand ur current partition in a v user friendly way.
Glad i cld help

is there a program that more closely emulates paint?
also a p2p program, perhaps like area? or limewire, but better?
perhaps a temp monitering program for processor? (coretemp?)
a DVD RIPPINg program, that takes a dvd, and makes it into a avi/mpg file of your choise of resolution?
ermm...
if i have those i think i'd be happy

p2p frostwire -- limewire pro level but FLOSS
MBmon is a good tool for temps -- but your mobo may not b supported.
For paint like drawing .. Inkscape is like Macrommedia fireworks -- aka a rele good vector image program
but for the whole paint "experience" -- kolorpaint
For DVD ripping a program called DVD :: Rip (synaptic dvd rip)
ahha, thank you
and thanks to that program, it seems only some of my hard drive was formatted (wtf) and 99Gb was unknown aparantly, so i formatted it into a new partition
i didnt know how to extend the current partition
also, joe, another favor please
the F@H link, does tell you how to install F@H, but it doesnt work for me, if you could do it in code, and force it through somehow perhaps?

OK this can all be done using the GUI -- but we dont want ne ambiguity do lets command line it
(n.b the files and folders in a Linux file system ARE case sensitive so ~/Fah is ~/Fah NOT ~/FAh or ~/fAh)
in a terminal type
Code:
mkdir ~/Fah**this makes a directory in your home folder called Fah
Code:
cd ~/Fah** this changes the location to that directory
Code:
wget [url]http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandegroup/folding/release/FAH6.00beta1-Linux.tgz[/url]** this uses the WebGET tool to download the Client from the above link
N.B you can type the first few letters of a file/folder then press tab to auto complete them (BUT THE NAMES ARE CASE SENSITIVE)
Code:
tar -xvf FAH6.00beta1-Linux.tgz**this uncompresses the files into ~/Fah
Code:
chmod +x fah6**tells the security flags on the file system that we will allow this file to execute -- a security feature meaning that only things that are downloaded that u rele want to run are allowed 2 do so
Code:
./fah6**this runs the client
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
to get the client running on startup go to
System > Preferences > Sessions
a Dialog will open
in this dialog @ [Startup Programs]
click [Add]
and select the fah6 client in the Command section -- feel free to name and comment accordingly
name='ionicle' said:done, thanks loads
worked perfectly, every little thing
Glad I can help young sire ...
Ok as a burgeoning Linux User ... are there any Tutorials/infoposts you would Like for me to publish??
(I believe this thread qualifies as FAH Installation and Mounting Network Shares)
one thing i should mention, it wont let me expand my partition, on the program you sugested, i delited the big partition, and there was loads of empty space, but it wouldnt let me resize it...
and not really, you've just done the 2 main things i needed, everything else is....well...not easy, but atleast like...understandable...
you should perhaps do a guide on basic's of linux, how to use it, the 2 desktops in one screen etc...
but ubuntu is so easy to use, i'm used to firefox already, the only thing i miss is the crashing
well, not really
but yeh
i like this
i have made it crash 3 times, and i'm still not sure why, but...ye...idk

WMA : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/WindowsCodecs
or synaptic the gstreamer bad and ugly packages [what I advise]
-----------------------
FAH SMP : enter './fah -smp' in a Command Line (or ./fah6 -smp )
-----------------------
Resize:
ok it doesnt let u resize ur Partition within GParted on a live filesystem
put in ur live install disk[*we are not going to reinstall*] and go to System Menu and browse to Gparted / Partition editor resize it there and then reboot (again no reinstall)
and thanks for the reps -- much appreciated
