Yea i am useing a system called ubuntu and it keeps asking me for a password to instill updates or apps but i dont have a password on it how do i get it off

Ubuntu has Two different passwords a root password and a user password. When you say you do not have a password you mean a user password. The System is looking for a root password. It asked you for one when you installed the system. If you do not know it the only way I know to get around it is to reinstall. Ubuntu and most linux distro is free. Download one and make a cd or dvd then reinstall if you do not have one.

I have gotten Ubuntu onto a usb flash drive its

I do not remember the install menu 100% but did you mark your primary partition with an "/"? When creating your partition table, a small window pops up in which you can set it to ext4, ntfs etc. but you also have to mark whether it is a swap, root or a different kind of partition. This field is blank by default but if you did not put a "/" in it, the installer might not recognize your partitions.

I have downloaded Ubuntu Linux 12.04 and am running it under wondows xp sp1. How can I delete windows and just run Ubuntu ?

Here is what you need to do:1. Open 'GParted'. From the menus: System -> Administration -> GParted2. Right click on the ntfs partition and select 'delete'3. Right click on this deleted partition and select 'Format to' and select ext3. This should accomplish what you want.If GParted is not installed, then open a terminal window and typeCode:sudo apt-get install gpartedAnd then proceed with steps 1-3 specified above.PS: Backup any data you need from the WinXP partition before you do this.Alternately, instead of formatting the XP partition to ext3, you could do this:Using gparted, as described above:Right click the XP partition and click delete.Right click the Ubuntu partition and click resizeIn the resize dialogue, change the settings to that it is as big as possible.Click apply changes.This is riskyer, so BACK UP EVERYTHING!!!!!! I do not take responsibility for lost data.This however will be closer to "unpartitioning" the drive, what was suggested above will still result in it being split into two partitions, they will just both be linux partitions.

Ubuntu adm password reset

Click "Applications" and then click "Accessories" on the top taskbar in the Ubuntu desktop.

Click "Terminal" to open a terminal window.

Type the following command at the Linux prompt and press the "Enter" key:

sudo passwd

To change the Administrator account password, the password of "root" is changed.

The "sudo" command gives the current user temporary Administrator access, in this instance, to change the password of "root."

First, the user will see a Unix prompt asking for the current user's password.

Type the user password for the current user account. Press the "Enter" key. Next, Unix will prompt the user for the new password for "root."

Type the new password for "root." Press "Enter." Finally, a Unix prompt will require a confirmation of the password.

Retype the new password for root, and press "Enter." The Administrator (root) account password for Ubuntu is now reset

or

Boot computer into recovery mode. Reset your computer and as it is booting, hold down the "Shift" key on your keyboard.

You will be presented with the boot menu.

Select "Recovery Mode" from the boot menu.

It is usually the the second boot option.

Wait for computer to boot up.

You will be presented with the Recovery Menu. Select "Drop to Root Shell Prompt."

Type "ls /home" and press "Enter." Note:

The command starts with a lower case L, not a capital i.

You will be presented with a list of usernames of accounts installed on the computer.

Type "passwd username" where username is replaced by the name of the account you want to reset. For example, if the username of your account was "jeff" you would type "passwd jeff" and press "Enter." You will be prompted to create a new password.

Enter a new password of your choosing.

Note: You will see no visual response when you type in your newly selected password; however, the computer still will register the input. Press "Enter."

You will be asked to retype your password.

Re-enter the same password and press "Enter."

Your password is now reset.

Type "Exit" to return to the boot menu and select "Resume Normal Boot" to restart Ubuntu.

hope this helps

How can I download and

empathy for ubuntu works with most messenger formats including yahoo. empathy is installed along with linux on ubuntu 10.10 so may already be installed on your system. ubuntu 10.10 is free and I guess you must now be out of your 60 day included support.
you might want to check out the ubuntu forums on the correct syntax to download and install programs in ubuntu
http://ubuntuforums.org/
the valusoft offering appears to be ubuntu 8.04 which is way out of date as we're on 10.10 which is the latest stable release and includes a software installer.
