I apologise, I know better than to be so vague.

what I had tried was:

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs ia32-libs-gtk ia32-libs-kde ia32-libs-sdl

Thank you for...

How do I get 32 bit libraries/support installed in 64 bit Kubuntu 17.10? I've had no success with the methods suggested for earlier versions.

You know, I don't have an answer, because I hate to generalize.

I installed and set up the global equalizer in Pulseaudio. It works quite fine for music, system sounds, and video playing.

However, it's too slow and gets choppy when used with...

Handbrake will do that, easy peasy with a GUI. It's in the repositories.

I forgot to type "sudo" the other day to reboot from the cli, but it worked anyway.

The permissions on /bin/systemctl are 700, the permissions on the symbolic link in /sbin are 777 (I am under the...

HP Officejet 4500 G510n-z over wi-fi.

HP's Linux support is fabulous.

In the year twenty-one oh-one. I remember it well. War was beginning.

Similarly, if one can't let such a thing pass uncommented, one should also reconsider one's life. Really, it's all too minor to waste time on.

Can we get to the hand-wringing over the purchase of...

Sometimes I trot out...

Both.

I use rsync for a daily mirror, and tar/bzip2 to make a weekly snapshot.

There is something magical about posting a plea for help that makes the brain come up with fresh approaches.

I looked about in synaptic and discovered that - and I really can't explain how I did...

Tonights update from -25 to -26 seems to have broken my video driver.

On re-installing nvidia-current under -26, it reports that it has skipped building the kernel module as "the kernel source...

I just bought an HP Officejet 4500 (The wireless model, but the driver will work for the Ethernet model, too. I use the USB port in Linux, my wife uses the wireless from her Windows XP netbook.)

Thank you for this howto. :)

A flat-bladed screwdriver will probably be enough to pry the hinge of the lock away from its mount, leaving the box intact.

Yes. Yes, it is.

All this finger-wagging is rather sucking the fun out of this thread.

Would it REALLY be too much to ask to let people have their say without questioning their motives? Just for the sake of fun?...

The most utterly useless technologies I ever spent money on:

Talk about regrets. Ugh.

Akira Kurosawa was one hell of a writer and director. =^_^=

That's an acceptable temp for the Core2duo, it has a top operating temp of 60C. It'd last longer if you can get it cooler, though.

40C is perfect average for most hard drives with 4200rpm...
