Just upgraded my system to 12.10 from 12.04. I've been experiencing a slow desktop environment. I went from 60+ fps (it was so smooth :P ) to about 10-15 fps. It's noticeable even when I drag the...

The problem was the dig command.
I did dig -x @8.8.8.8 <ip>, but it should have been dig -x <ip>. It's working now. Altough someone other than me seems to have control over the reverse DNS PTR. I...
I'm at a loss to why my reverse lookup zone doesn't work for me. Could anybody see what I've done wrong?

I'm regularly backing up my laptop home directory to a file server. But it doesn't hurt I guess. :)
Totally forgot about swap! But since I got 4GB RAM I guess I hardly need 4GB swap space. Thanks.
Is it possible for me to have both / for BT and Ubuntu in the same extended partition? The only partition that needs to be primary is the dedicated GRUB partition?
This is how I plan to partition...

This is solved. The regex was incorrect.
The group owner remains unchanged. Why?
Doesn't work regardless of everything I throw at it.

I've set up virtual users. The home dir for them should be /media/truecrypt1. I've mounted an encrypted partition that I want the FTP users to gain access to. I've added my own system user to the...
Just curious. What's the point of specifying source ports?
Also, output rules like that can easily be circumvented by someone that knows what he/she's doing. Just a quick notice.
I want to hardcode the MAC of my GW to mitigate ARP poisoning attacks. When I run: arp --set IP MAC it only lasts till I reboot the machine. How to hardcode it permanently?

I don't really know how to describe it.

To be extracted. Everything below 450k. That's easy.
I then...
