Hi all!
The question is relatively technical, but is almost a simple yes/no answer.
Here we go:

I have some program (written in say Java) in which I want to process a huge amount of data off the...

Well I managed to fix this by updating/reinstalling my graphics card driver. Everything is much smoother now! Ubuntu is finally a joy to use again :)

Unless its linked to compiz or the unity I find it somewhat sad that this basic feature isn't working.

I've been a 12.04 user for quite some time now, and using nautilus is getting increasingly annoying. It takes about 2 full seconds to load the contents of a folder (with about 15 things inside)....

Okay more reading up on this leads me to totally revise what I thought:
phonegap plugins will just convert any html5/css/js project into code executable on respective platforms.

So what's the...

Hi all, I'm looking into writing cross platform mobile apps with phonegap. I was just reading up on it, and want to make sure I understand phonegap's purpose:

from what I gathered, phonegap is a...

Ah, so basically you're pointing a new variable to the same object, and then using that reference correct? So essentially the same thing I guess

Hi there,
I need to translate a program I have in python to Java. I ran across a problem that made me wonder about the basic functionality of the Java.

In python, you can reassign a function to a...

Sorry not to include that, the configurations/settings/profiles I've made are under that networking drop down (top right corner) -> edit connections

yeah, just checked what nm-applet was, that's...

I was just wondering about the differences between the "network connections" i have set up in my network preferences and what shows up under ifconfig... I'm probably just confused because the default...

Hi there, I need to incorporate a wavelet transform into a program that I'm writing. I know basically what it does, but I don't know much of the math behind it and the complex math (for instance,...

I was just talking with my father and I suppose i have a fundamental misunderstanding of 'bandwidth'. I had assumed bandwidth of digital sensors was equal to the maximum output data rate. Really, for...

Hi all!
Last year I did a project in which I used piezoelectric sensors to measure vibrations. I shifted the signal into the positive range with an op-amp and converted to digital with an ADC. With...

My parents gave me an android tablet (Zenithink c93 with jb 4.1) for christmas and I was wondering if its possible or worth the effort to try to root it manually, assuming I have no experience with...

An hour later I feel like I have reached enlightenment!

The reason I can't declare a class (and instantiate it) inside the class containing the main method is that the class containing the main...

One last thing, I just realized that when you created an instance of exercise4$18:

exercise4$18 thing = new exercise4$18;

Does this not need () to work? like

exercise4$18 thing = new...

What I don't understand here is how making a new instance of exercise4$18 inside main like you did is any different from just making an instance of my customer...

Also, to me it seems quite a...

Is this required? What's the difference between having a public class inside the main class and instantiating that and having it made from a separate file?

I understand that the difference between a class and an instance of the class is that the instance is a build off of the 'blueprint', as i like to think about it. Also, as far as I can understand,...

Hi! I'm about 3 months into java for my high school APCS class. I'm taking it far beyond what the book exercise asks, but since I'm already familiar with programming I thought I'd take the simple...

Okay well if anyone still cares, my final fix for this problem (restarting lightdm is inconvenient because it closes all the programs/applications running) - and that didn't always fix it anyway -...

Okay so it seems like these effects only kick in after I wake up the computer from suspend (didnt notice before since i do it so much!)

Also if i restart X (sudo restart lightdm) it seems to fix...

So i recently upgraded to 12.04 from my stable 10.04. I sort of like the idea of the dash and HUD because i can keep my hands on the keyboard more. It's especially faster when I know what I'm looking...

Hey all, I just upgraded from my [very] stable 10.04 to 12.04 hoping to get to know the new HUD etc etc. However, there are random stalls where everything totally freezes. For instance, music stops...

I'm trying to figure out how (conceptually) it would work if I wanted to tunnel http traffic from my laptop to my ssh server to the destination.

So for example, if I'm at school using the wifi...
