I find it quite funny how both you and Paddy Landau essentially ignore the whole point about Wikimedia possibly wasting millions of dollars.
Uhm. I never happily part with any of my hard earned money and though I am far from perfect, I do try to be a conscious buyer. Shouldn't you instead be motivating people to think all of their...
I was researching what exactly the money donated is spent on and I came across various pages from Wikimedia such as this short FAQ and the financial reports.
I haven't yet looked at these...
I have become a little bit disillusioned with Wikipedia. Both from the perspective of a contributor and a user.
I've been using Wikipedia since at least 2005 and in the past I have made several...
I don't have a TERRA All-In-One PC 1910 but I do have a ThinkPad X61 tablet which has a resistive Wacom touchscreen. In my case there's three devices: 1 for the stylus, 1 for touch and 1 for the...
And if you're in a hurry or if they ignore you you could always install Stylish and fix it using a user stylesheet.
Here's a pretty hackish workaround I whipped up:

Disable external monitor when removing VGA cable
I have a dual monitor setup (laptop screen + external monitor) and have configured the GNOME panel to appear on the external monitor by default. When the external monitor is disabled through the...
Please see my answer on Ask Ubuntu.
I took a look at this (how to save the current session programmatically) and it turns out that you have to call SaveSession on the gnome-session D-Bus service:
dbus-send --session...
Some day yes :-) The headset's gone now, but if it ever makes a return and I've upgraded to Jaunty I will take a look at it at the link regarding PulseAudio you just gave. Thanks!
/apps/metacity/general/focus_new_windows is a gconf key so use gconf-editor to modify it. I'm not sure how this will affect focus stealing overall so you'll have to check for yourself.
If you're using Metacity you just have to set /apps/metacity/general/focus_new_windows to strict which results in windows started from the terminal not being given focus. Potentially you could also...
It does not, also I'm not sure if it's a good idea to make your application depend on being launched from the installation directory (or at least the directory in which the executable can be found). ...
OK, I rang Logitech support this morning and the person I talked to was very helpful. I clearly explained the issue with the white noise and how it occurred even before the operating system had...
I bought this headset Saturday on an impulse and it doesn't work out of the box with ALSA on Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid). However, it does work if I configure it to use OSS as such through the GUI...
Perhaps my post on the thread Logitech USB Headphones + Mic Do Not Work might be of some assistance.
I didn't notice that you were talking about different device so I've split this post into its own thread. See: Logitech ClearChat PC Wireless.
I believe personal crontabs (also for the root user) are stored in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/. The usual way to edit them though is by invoking crontab -e as the relevant user. You can always do a...
Geany is not a compiler, it's a text-editor (or lightweight IDE if you prefer), but I assume you already know that. It does have the ability to call an actual compiler though, e.g. g++ (potentially...
I discussed it with Cosimo and it turns out that that isn't a mock-up, it's actual working code. He hasn't implemented any of the changes mentioned in that thread yet though. He said it's on his...
I had not expected Alice not to come up, so hereby. There may well be reasons to go with one of the earlier mentioned approaches but as an introductory approach Alice like a really good idea. I...
I believe the ondemand governor should be active by default and lower your frequency automatically, you can show the frequency on your panel by adding the frequency applet. When you're on battery...
It may or it might not. I'd say just try it out on the terminal and see if it does anything (and even though it did allow me to adjust my brightness it wasn't ideal, I've recently switched to a...
