I am running ubuntu 11.10 can anyone tell me if they are using 3g

I came across one of those pre-paid modems on a work colleagues
computer the other day. To get it working in a loan computer it had to

Hi All,

I’d be grateful to know how I can get the filenames of files (or
selected files) within a folder [but not subfolders] into a text file,

Hi Dave,
Yes, the terminal method you linked to would be perfect.
There probably is an app somewhere that
Some time ago when I was dual-booting with XP and used XP on the 'net, I

WAN, but not LAN, were not responded to.
Hi Basil,

all-ports forwarding going on.
And now I am absolutely confused and in the state of wonder.
When I went broadband (from dial-up) I bought a Netgear modem/router
Then I went from ADSL to ADSL2+, still with TPG, and was supplied with a

My advice: ignore grc.com. :-)
I'll pipe up here and agree with that statement - there's absolutely no
need to go blocking pings.
I work for an ISP (Adam in Adelaide) and get this question a lot from
customers, and also talk to a lot of customers that have gone and
blocked pings.

I don't know much about hardware. I'd be grateful for some advice on
what device to buy with which I can play back digital music files
through a conventional hifi amplifier, a device that either has a hard

solution that'll
Before clean install to Lucid Lynx on my PC, I recorded Gramps to CD

What is your take on the 'newcomers' experience in general.
When you visited the ubuntu.org.au website what did you find ?

Hey AndrewG,

I have just joined Ubuntu Au 'cause I am looking for a group to help
me learn how to use Ubuntu. I live in Toowoomba and hope that there is
a group here that could help me.
Hi Dave,
Welcome :)
I'm from Adelaide so I'm not much use to you regarding groups in
Toowoomba, but I'm sure you'll
I type in my old (first) password (note not my current password) and it
goes away.
However this screen continues to greet me everytime I log in.
Hi Brian,
This has happened to me before aswell - it seems that your system/login

I have some old video files that are in .MOV. I can of course play
them with Ubuntu, but can anyone tell me if there's a way to
convert .MOV files to say .MPEG, .OGG or, even better, straight to DVD

I'm not trying to play or stir politics - if there has been any on

(I have no printer.) The Print dialogue box shows 'Print to file', and I
select the only option that's there, PDF, and click on Print.
I can't work out where the PDF file is (what folder) - gives no

I'd really like something that just automatically grabs the
non-transferred photos from the camera and puts them in appropriate

for a while now I've been looking into buying a NAS for the growing
amount of data.
Hi All,
A little above the ~$200 price point (probably more like $350 including
