Would somebody mind telling me how to set PulseAudio as the default sound server for adobe flash (using the plugin from Ubuntu restricted extras, 11.2 r202) and Skype (v 4.2.0.11)? For Skype, I tried...

True but I strongly advise keeping up to date on vulnerabilities and exploits. Don't always assume the community will catch everything. Look into programs like noscript and apparmor. bodhi.zazen...

Sounds like something fudged your desktop environment.

First, back up your Unity settings through ccsm (sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager in terminal if you don't have it) by:

I've experienced high sys load with Opera in Puppy Linux (same scenario) myself. Maybe try clearing your cache? If that doesn't work, try reinstalling flash.

uname -aTo the person above me, I believe this was posted. The result was: 82562EZ 10/100 Ethernet Controller. No wireless.


Edit:...

If needed in the future, another use for 'cd' (just cd) is returning to the base directory.

Interesting. Your connection is running in half duplex. Maybe force full duplex 100baseTx?

I have an Acer Aspire 5740 and I had the same issue with screen brightness. What I did was:

The sed command replaces text in a file. i.e.:

Basketball + PoI - 2/28 @ 9:00 pm
Other shows + PoI - 3/7 @ 9:00 pm

If I wanted to change those times, you'd type

Try these 1 by 1. If it doesn't work, revert changes.

For SNES/GBA, there's always mednafen. Mednafen can run games via context menu and terminal. Configuration is largely terminal based. If you prefer a GUI for everything, use VBA & snes9x.
