Hello,

I try to share a file  and I get this permission error: 'net user share' returned error 255: net user share add: failed to add share media.

Error was Operation not permitted. I am a total noob in Ubuntu and I need help to fix this or another way to easily share files.

This is what I take:

Error:

 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: failed to add share media.

Error was Operation not permitted.

I have an external storage medium, a USB hard, containing viruses originating from my Windows box. If I plug it into my Linux box, what will happen? What if I use Wine?

Hi,

I'm using a Compaq Presario cq60 and a dell Inspiron laptop. When I run them in Windows mode, the maximum core temperature it attains is around 50 (Celsius). But when I run in Linux mode sometimes the core temperature goes up to 90 (Celsius) within just, 1-2 hours. I have placed several cooling pads and sinks but seems that they are of no use.

Please help me on this issue.

Thanks.

I have a problem with my iPod shuffle. I can't mount it in Ubuntu 11.10. I plug it into the USB port, but it doesn't recognize it. I can't find the mount directories. I installed Rhythmbox, but it doesn't recognize it either. I checked /mnt, there are no files. I don't know what else to do. Any ideas? Thanks for your help

I want to install Google chrome and opera web browsers on my machine running Ubuntu version 11.04. I have a mobile broadband internet connection and I was using Firefox previously.

I was successful downloading the installers for opera and chrome. When I tried to install chrome, during the installation an error occurred and all I see is some load error.

When I tried my test my luck on installing opera it was even worse, the installer goes smoothly until it is reading the setup database but just after that there is a bunch of error messages and the installation fails.
