I'm also looking for a simple PDF editor to add some markers, highlighting, etc. I just tried pdfedit, but the interface is very ugly and the program is probably overkill for my needs.
Anyone...
The script looks safe anyway. Although, it might be nice to comment what each of the installed software packages does. This seems to be a list quite tailored to your needs, and probably not all of...
I have 6GB of RAM, I'm fairly certain I have enough RAM to open the image :)
I looked around a little bit, and found that converting the file to TIFF resulted in a larger filesize, but was easier...
Is anybody aware of a program which is capable of viewing very high-dimensional images? I have an image which is ~ 35000x25000 pixels, 350MB PNG, which I would like to open and view. The default...
Thanks for the tutorial. Note though, that you mention the command to check sha1 sums as
sha1 -c <sha1sum-file>when in fact it should be
sha1sum -c <sha1sum-file>I appears that you've...
Had to help my brother who decided to run 'sudo firefox', and this did the trick. Thanks for posting the tip-- I also didn't realize the difference between sudo and gksudo (other than the graphical...
Hi dashdave,
I was just looking for a solution to the same problem. My university has a whole catalog of lectures for viewing online, but there is a problem that the video content is strangely...
Your approach seems most appropriate for files and packages you assume will be universally applicable and well-distributed. If you are just sharing "arbitrary files", then sometimes it doesn't make...
Is it really necessary to create a whole .deb package to distribute some arbitrary files or a shell script? Seems like a lot of work where a simple FTP would do the trick.
Or, if you're intent on...
Hmm, this does seem to be the case with eog, but must happen at the application-level. This certainly isn't the case for Linux in general:
$ file pic.jpg

As RequinB4 mentioned above, most browser-based TV websites will be available on Linux just as Windows. You can use Firefox, which will also require Flash to play. For Flash, there are a few...
Windows employs some "magic" to open the default application for known filetypes. From a command line, you can employ the same magic with
start myfile.txt
In the above example, notepad will...
I wouldn't normally blame Windows, but I have heard of Windows drivers messing with other hardware settings across sessions (particularly, WakeOnLan settings).
Aside from that, I'm not really sure...
There are a couple of alternative OS'es for iPods and other mp3 players out there. iPodLinux runs a full Linux Kernel, although I think it is a little rough for actual media player usage. RockBox...
If you mention that it happens most often after gaming on Windows, then it may be due to a setting for Windows or some power management software running on Windows. Check to make sure the screen...
It depends on what exactly you're looking for. To watch video podcasts for an assortment of different websites, Miro is a great program. If you have a TV tuner for your computer, MythTV does an...
Rhythmbox, which is the default music player in Ubuntu, has support for "Radio" streams. It has many preset stations, which appear to use .m3u and .pls format. You can also use your own stations.

Does this offer similar functionality to the *locate commands? For quickly finding a file on the system by name, I generally use:
mlocate myfile
mlocate also supports regular expressions for...
I did a quick Google search on the log output you posted, and came up with a couple hits. In particular:
launchpad bug #249242
The solution seems to imply that the actual problem was memory...
Hmmm, interesting. There's a few things you can do to find more info. In particular, check the system logs and find information related to your wireless card. For a GUI, you can go to System >...
It might be helpful to know more about how you got your network card working in the first place. Are you using ndiswrapper? Also, you can check for log messages (System > Administration> System...
There is a package for Skype, with instructions on how to install it here. Does this satisfy your needs? Ekiga is a free alternative, which is more similar to Microsoft Netmeeting.
I'm not familiar with the tools you mention, but Ubuntu Hardy uses PulseAudio for audio management, which *does* support surround sound, with a little tweaking.
I've previously wrote a tutorial...
I was having similar trouble with my iwp2200 card. Is this the kernel update from hardy-proposed?
The solution for me was to remove the hardy-proposed repository, remove the kernel package...
