    [ubuntu] Re: Java Runtime problems

    If you downloaded it from a website, you could poke around on that site for a link to sourceforge or some other site where people store source code to make it publicly available. Of course, it may...

    [ubuntu] Re: Java Runtime problems

    mharrison is right, there is a coding error. Is the source code available somewhere? There's a good chance it's a really simple fix and as a CS student I'd enjoy having a go at it :)

    I just got an assignment to write a C# GUI app for school. I've been kind of anti-mono in the past, but I figure using it now is better than installing Windows just to do the project. My question is,...

  10. [all variants] Re: Setting up own mail server for personal email

    Well, I don't *think* my ISP blocks any ports, but I haven't tried using port 80 with this ISP yet.
