  1. [SOLVED] Re: Why do /home/username/.cache get locked by root?

    Tried that, but somehow root was repossessing them. I gave up and began systematically sudo-removing folders. (I think getting rid of dconf fixed most window-positioning issues.)

    So I didn't fully...

  3. [SOLVED] Re: Why do /home/username/.cache get locked by root?

    Crap. I think I did this with File-Roller at some point. That might be why it won't remember window size or positioning unless I run as "sudo file-roller".

    Have any ideas on resetting the...

    [SOLVED] Re: Ubuntu on older system

    You can run Ubuntu 12.04 without unity I believe... I forgot how to do that, but I know it IS possible to have the robust GNOME-style interface without the resource intensive Unity bar.

    That said,...
  5. [SOLVED] Why do /home/username/.cache get locked by root?

    Just performed a shutdown/reboot in Xubuntu 12.04 LTS and when I got back, I had difficulty opening up Firefox, Software Center, and a bunch of stuff. Usually a log file was missing, a profile...
  6. Re: Any reason why not all emulators can see a controller?

    Oh, where's the source for VBA-M?

    QJoy (and similar programs) would work for Visual Boy Advance, but the other issue would be the SONY gamepad; it doesn't get recognized by QJoyPad or even...
  7. Re: Best recommended USB Gamepad for old skool emulation?

    A PS3 controller, via USB at least, should theoretically work.
    X360 controllers, via USB, I know for certain work.

    There are USB-adapters for SNES and older console gamepads. (There many such as...
  8. Any reason why not all emulators can see a controller?

    I have a few emulators and a few USB controllers. Some emulators see one controller, but not the other. Some see both controllers. Some see none.

    For example, Visual Boy Advance (1.8 off the...

    Re: Voxel Sandbox Games for Linux?

    What machine are you using? I find Minecraft was made for a multi-core machine; single-core processors, no matter how mighty, really don't handle it well.
  11. Re: Program running out of memory with 2GB memory?!

    Indeed, Bowtie 2 does not require 4GB of RAM... but still 3.2GB

    [ubuntu] Re: Flash drive mayhem

    Yes, I agree. Except that when I mentioned my flash drive "hitting gridlock," it was a new one I bought this year that I had only used for about a month. I surmise that something other than age must...

    Re: (X)ubuntu and Win8 -- possible on 60 GB?

    I'll probably make my own made-within-OS recovery disk using one of the many methods provided -- I might as well do it before 8.1 rolls in and disables that feature.

    But I still stand by using DD...
  14. Re: Anyone having problem connecting Sixaxis trough USB?

    I've installed QtSixA before, on both 12.04 and 11.04; aside from the nifty GUI, the controller still isn't detected via USB. With my 11.04 laptop, it also has an additional "no bluetooth available"...

  19. Re: Anyone having problem connecting Sixaxis trough USB?

    Ah, that's always what I hear here, but upgrading is always problematic. How will GRUB handle it? How will I export all my settings? Will my iR and dial-up modem still work? Will I be able to dig out...

    (X)ubuntu and Win8 -- possible on 60 GB?

    Probably overhtinking things, but I wanted to be sure.

    I've got an old laptop that runs Win8 that I just moved to a 60GB SSD. Since that was a success, I figure a simple liveCD and DD should work...

    Simple answer: Not enough (or right) people liked the XBOX enough to continue development.

    The same thing happened to the Gamecube; the fact that the Wii uses similar hardware gave the Dolphin...
