Programming problem
Hi Everybody.
I have an Ubuntu linux 10.04 os and want be able to use the website of intuit but it only runs on unix. Is there any way that I can put the needed drivers in this os since both linux/unix share some distinctive programs.
If this is not possible how can I save the information that I currently have on my hard drive from the Ubuntu Linux 10.04 Operating System (OS).
And if it is possible then were can I go to download the programs I need to run this like a unix based system?
Please let me know.

ctrlaltdel
CTRLALTDEL(8) Linux Programmer's Manual CTRLALTDEL(8)
NAME
ctrlaltdel - set the function of the Ctrl-Alt-Del combination
SYNOPSIS
ctrlaltdel hard|soft
DESCRIPTION
Based on examination of the linux/kernel/sys.c code, it is clear that there are two supported functions that the Ctrl-Alt-Del sequence can
perform: a hard reset, which immediately reboots the computer without calling sync(2) and without any other preparation; and a soft reset,
which sends the SIGINT (interrupt) signal to the init process (this is always the process with PID 1). If this option is used, the init(8)
program must support this feature. Since there are now several init(8) programs in the Linux community, please consult the documentation
for the version that you are currently using.
ctrlaltdel is usually used in the /etc/rc.local file.
FILES
/etc/rc.local
SEE ALSO
simpleinit(8), init(8)
AUTHOR
Peter Orbaek (poe@daimi.aau.dk)
AVAILABILITY
The ctrlaltdel command is part of the util-linux-ng package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux-ng/.
