Going to agree with what everyone said here. And I find it funny that some people advocate for Free and open source software because it encourages software that can be built on any platform and...
San Jose Sharks fan here. I keep telling myself they'll win it all this year, but I think my hopes would be bolstered if they traded for a top defenseman.
Niners fan here. I've got hope they actually might make the playoffs this year, but that exhibition against the Bears a couple days ago dimmed those hopes a little bit... :(
I think it's been mentioned before in this thread, but don't blame us Americans for using a term the British came up with as a name for the game. Football or soccer, it's the same game - having a...
Actually, no, it's not in the repos yet. Synaptic manages all debs installed, regardless if the package is in the preset repos or not.
If you want a Ubuntu-built Pidgin 2.0, you have to wait until...
You have beryl-manager installed and running? The tray icon it provides has some options that allow you to swtich window managers for instances like these.
That article is bunk. This filter has always been disabled by default in FreeType, long before the Microsoft-Novell deal.
I guess you're right. I'm going to see if I can get my Scheduler class to implement Runnable and run it as it's own thread, and see if it will respond to any calls made to the separate Scheduler...
Alright, I've got something of a problem here.
I'm developing a program that simulations handling of processes by a CPU in Java. The basic design is in two classes; one, a Scheduler class that...
Good luck with that. You're going to need it.
It's Polyester. Very nice KDE theme.
It's in main for all Ubuntu distros. Are you sure you have it installed?
Okay, just tried the February 6th daily build and this problem was fixed. My guess is that the linux-restricted-modules packages for Herd 3 was busted.
Hey ButteBlues, what's the wireless card you use? Try starting the herd 3 CD without it inserted and see if it works.
Yesterday's update = good job Steven.
So, that's item #3 down. Dunno about #1 (although the latest changelog mentions at least one fix for the queue), so I'm guessing most of the work left is...
There doesn't seem to be a related bug on there, so I added a bug report about the behavior: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/83151
Okay, just downloaded Herd 3, burned it to a CD and booted it on my Inspiron 5100. When I choose "Start or install Kubuntu", the boot is incredibly slow and X does not start, the process go to a...
Yeah, some folks are just that dedicated (and/or good). Here's a couple other pieces done in Paint that I've been impressed by:

Funny, because I did some research on the relationship between HAL and Solid and found it to say otherwise:

Actually, no, Solid isn't breaking away from HAL. It's an abstraction layer that gets information about the hardware regardless of what OS it's running on (since KDE4 is supposed to be ported to Mac...
Well, I live in the States, so that's no problem for me. I'd be willing to wait however long it takes for you to get the resources needed, though.
Hey, mind posting some debs? I'd love to try this out in Kubuntu.
January desktop for me.
I'm gaining more of an appreciation for simple, cleaner background images now.
You can in KDE. In System Settings > Keyboard and Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts, just set whatever shortcuts you want to "Switch to Next Desktop" and "Switch to Previous Desktop".
