I'm a computer science PhD student, with a severe lack of practical computing ability. No-one has called me on it yet, but I'm sure the day is only just around the corner...

How can I change the mount point of an external hard drive Thanks. I have changed the label of the partition, but it hasn't seemed to change the mountpoint. |

Unable to mount 1TB USB external HDD - Error This worked perfectly for me with the same problem. Something similar was in fstab, and this was preventing mounting, either by GUI or terminal. |

The NVIDIA X driver is not new enough to support the nvidia-settings Display Configuration page Can I ask where you made this switch? Thanks. |

Unable to launch gedit with sudo Hmm.. I agree that it seems like it should, but it just doesn't. gedit opens gedit, gksu gedit gives an error! I think the problems run deeper than I first thought. Thanks for your help though. |

How to find processed called from a specific Terminal? Definitely an interesting command, but probably overkill for my use! Could come in handy in the future. |

Unable to launch gedit with sudo Thanks, I hadn't heard of this. However, using this I get the error Cannot open display. I believe this is an error coming from gedit itself. |

Unable to launch gedit with sudo @vasa1 how is that the moral of the story? Regardless of the merits of following random instructions from the internet, /var/lib/dpkg/status is a file which I should be able to edit with gedit, but currently cannot. Please, if you have a useful answer add it below. |
