I you want to get rid of the plugin permanently, because it is not removed by apt if you remove acroread, you have to delete it manually:
sudo rm /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/npwrapper.nppdf.so
That worked for me on Ubuntu 13.04

I know it's an old question, but since the issue is still not solved by Wine, people will probably be still googling what to do, so...
I've asked people at PlayOnLinux to make a special Wine build with the fixed pen pressure issue. So, what you need to do is:
install PlayOnLinux
go to Tools->Manage Wine Versions and install the version named "1.5.5-SAI"

I know this question is two years old, but I don't like to see questions that never get an accepted answer so I'm trying to help.
This doesn't use the package manager, but at http://gcc-uk.internet.bs/releases/ you can find almost every version of GCC. Version 4.3.0 (and likely all others) include HTML installation instructions. If you don't like UK ...

This is quite old now but I just ran into the same problem with Ubuntu 13.04 and Netbeans 7.3.1
The reason for this is because when Netbeans is run with root privilleges to install all plugins it creates ~/.cache/netbeans/7.3.1/* with root permissions and doesn't clear those files when exiting. When you run it with your user, it's denied access to those ...

The thread referenced by Caffeine Coma indicates this is related to low-level technicalities in closing TCP network connections... Obscure and subtle differences between the way operating systems (Windows, Mac, Linux) handle connection termination apparently result in some harmless confusion between server and client, and this somehow results in the ...

GNOME terminal is also slow for me. From the Wikipedia list the fastest of what I tested was evilvte. That one seems to go all the way to the opposite end of the spectrum in terms of leaving out as many features as possible. (Whereas I sense that GNOME terminal chooses to be quite featureful.)
The other fast alternative for me is to use the virtual ...

For me (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS host; Ubuntu 13.04 guest; virtualbox 4.1.18 running on the host), it seems that the downloaded guest-additions iso on the host was old, so installing by mounting that iso through vbox's menus failed consistently. There was no package virtualbox-guest-additions available on the guest, so I installed
$ sudo apt-get install ...

Are you sure that you have an FTP server running on your Windows system? It seems to either not be present, not running, or not configured to allow a connection in from the error you are relaying.
Either way, the problem you are describing (if you are truly attempting to FTP into that Windows box) is more an FTP server setup / Windows security (firewall) / ...

11.10 has reached its EOL (End Of Life) and you won't get any upgrades for it. You have to upgrade to another version of Ubuntu.

In case you want to install the older version and replace the current installation:
sudo apt-get remove --purge libreoffice-core libreoffice-common
sudo apt-get autoremove --purge
Then find the version you want - here, download the archive containing the multiple deb files and install them following the instructions contained in the help/readme.

You need to type in sudo crontab -e in the command line. The in the editor that pops open, hit the i key to insert in the cron that you want to add. I had to do this for my feedafever.com installation on jamescampbell.us/fever and it worked great running it from my ubuntu server instance on amazon ec2.

I'm curious about this too, as I'm getting similar log entries even from Googlebot servers.
This thread seems to say that it's nothing to worry about, but it seems very odd to me to have these register as a BLOCK in UFW.

Adding the line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor"
worked for me on my Acer Aspire One D270-1596 running Ubuntu 12.04.
I had also experienced a dull almost unreadable screen on login and was getting rid of it by logging out as a user and logging back in. I commented out (put # at the beginning of the Grub line)

I've applied all of the above and none of it works for me AT FIRST, even though wget, apt-get, curl, web browsing, thunderbird and suchlike have all worked perfectly for years. Only software centre didn't work.
However, I left it with a grey screen for 2-4 minutes after applying the fix to /etc/apt/apt.conf:

in your .ssh folder, add a file named config with your favorite editor (gedit or whatever). In the file named config add the following lines:
Host myEC2instance
User blue
Hostname someDNSname.from.amazon.com
ServerAliveInterval 5
This permits ssh to be used as:
$ ssh myEC2instance
and you will be asked for your keyphrase once, and no more until you log ...

That's because 11.10, has reached EOL, and not supported any longer. I would recommend that you upgrade to at least 12.04. But if you system is capable, you may want to install 13.04.
If you decide to upgrade, I recommend that you do a fresh install. Make sure to backup all of your data. Otherwise, you have to do 11.10 --> 12.04 --> 12.10 --> 13.04

Then run the following command sudo apt-get update to check for updates.
Finally you can install the latest version by running sudo apt-get

SQL Server requires Microsoft Windows OS to run. There is no way you can install SQL Server on Ubuntu. It can only happen using some form of VM.
Make sure that you have Important security updates checked.

I had a similar problem with my Lenovo E535 running 12.04.
I am used to the function keys swapping out the display selection.
If you go to System Settings | Displays the secondary monitor comes up and you can configure the settings.
It wasn't as convenient at flipping the "F8" key but it worked.

Open the Update Manager from the dash
In the bottom left corner, press the "Settings" button
In the dialog that opens, click on the "Updates" tab

Although this may not be for everyone, here's what i did to solve this problem. I put a PS2 keyboard and mouse into my computer. It works just fine.
Additionally, i installed a Synergy client on my Ubuntu, so that after i log in, i use the shared mouse and keyboard.
I hope this helps.
