This has been advertised for awhile, and I've been waiting for quite some time for a download link. Is this just a conceptual page, or a...

Well, I don't know how this didn't show up in dozens upon dozens of searches. But, in trying to discover where Midori stores its cookies, I found a useful tidbit of information:


So, it looks...

I would try to make it executable in the terminal before digging any further: "chmod +x /path/to/touchpad_script"

The terminal might be intimidating at first, but as you get used to it, you'll...

The midori irc channel seems dead, but I've filed a report on Launchpad. I'll report back with my findings if anything meaningful arises.

I noticed this the other day, and I'm not sure if this is an unreported bug with Midori or if it's just some misconfiguration on my end. Does this happen for anyone else?

Nevermind, I went ahead and installed ttf-dejavu-core and now it boots. It seems really strange to me that this game is so dependent on a specific font...ah, well. Crisis averted.

One of my favorite passtimes, Neverputt, will no longer run after performing an update from 13.10 to 14.04. Is anyone else affected by this, or does anyone know a workaround? I love this game more...

As I was using a more recent version of crosstool-ng, I used the version referenced in the article and it worked fine. I did have to compile it as root/sudo.

As context (I should have included this earlier), I ran "ct-ng build" as root for the above because, with normal permissions, the command produced this error:


[INFO ] Performing some trivial...

As I'm hoping to build Firefox for ARM (I'm aware that Iceweasel is available for Raspbian), I've installed crosstool-ng following this guide. I am past the make && sudo make install part for...

Nah, I don't use screensavers lol; I'm actually kinda glad Lubuntu is moving from xscreensaver 'cause that program is awful (albeit functional and a cross-distro default). I'll also report back if I...

I would have suggested opening the settings manager and then running a command like "ps -A | grep lock", but I found the command: "light-locker settings". Incidentally, I found this when I went to...

It appears that I don't have that option o_O do you know the terminal command to launch it?

huh...how did you pull up that settings window?

I know that this question is a documented bug, but Lubuntu has been in testing for awhile now, so I was just wondering if anyone has, at least, found a quick-n-dirty workaround. Returning to a...

Found this error in /var/log/mail.log:

Mar 23 17:18:41 Sera postfix/smtp[22293]: CA64A181B48: to=<phonenumber@vtext.com>, relay=smtp-bb.vtext.com[69.78.128.213]:25, delay=1.9, delays=0.1/0/1.8/0,...

I'm trying to get heirloom-mailx to send an email to my phone carrier's text-email address (phonenumber@vtext.com). For whatever reason, it refuses to. My friend, however, is able to, and have no...

duplicate post (no idea how this happened)

Okay, so with the help of one of my really good friends, we got a script to fill in boards. The problem, I now realize, is that I need to get some information from JavaScript -__- Using a JavaScript...

I'm now trying mechanize. I received a "'module' object has no attribute 'Browser'" error, but this occurred because one of my test scripts was named "mechanize.py;" renaming it solved this issue.

In order to get information from my job's website (as the first step to a larger utility), I wanted to simply modify an existing code which I use to log-in and display html data. Here's the script...

I assume your question is more along the lines of, "if this computer had viruses on Windows, will those viruses transfer to Linux?" If you wipe Windows (wipe the entire partition table) and use...

That's a really good idea, hadn't thought of that. I might just do this, at least until 14.04 is released. It's not a config file issue, but in terms of an encrypted home folder's interference,...

Using this guide, rTorrent boots in the background at startup; via SSH, I can toss the torrent files in a watch folder, so they'll be auto-loaded into the program. As it stands, rTorrent can't...

Thank you both for the insights. I doubt it'll be stolen any time soon, so I'll just reinstall Linux, leave my home partition unencrypted, and put all my sensitive information in an encrypted...
