I recently installed compiz-fusion from the repos, I am using KDE 4.1 on Kubuntu 8.04.

It would appear that Compiz is starting kde-window-decorator from KDE3, whereas I'd like it to start the KDE4...

I was wondering if anyone knows how well the game Defcon (for Windows from Steam) runs under Linux through WINE.

I know there is a native client but Steam has the game for $15 instead of the...

Standby works fine for me after I got pm-utils installed (but you have to standby / hibernate from the terminal, which is a bit of a pain but at least it works :D) so to anyone having issues with...

I've got Ubuntu 7.10, and Arch sitting on a laptop.

There is a Windows XP partition on my main computer, but it got borked during the install, I could easily fix it with a reformat, but its not...

Ubuntu wasn't my first ever Linux distribution, but it's the first one I've used for more than a month. (In other words the two distros I tried before this (FC3 and FC4) were both failures on my old...

You won't find anything better sounding then FLAC, it's lossless, just a perfect rip of the CD under some slight compression (not encoding)


Personally I use Foobar in WINE. I know it's a sin,...

Personally, I buy a better computer then what I need because it's meant to last me quite some time. I don't look forward to replacing my rigs, I run them until they die, or, until there's not much...

Windows and Linux are operating systems, that is the common ground they share, perhaps they should stop there. I think a great thing about Linux is if you want it to be like Windows, you can make it...

I trust that you've backed up your web design portfolio in a safe place now? ;)

The majority of Linux users are tech savvy, because you normally have to know quite a bit to get Linux up and running, unless you have a machine that'll work perfectly with it (ala Dell)

However,...

To me the command line is more friendly than the GUI when receiving directions.

It's much easier to copy and paste a command or edit a config then it is to follow along "System > Administration >...

I used to photoshop motivational posters together to throw on my desktop, but recently I've been getting all my wallpaper from interfacelift.com (mainly the abstract works)

You know you're a geek when you get a kernel panic, and the error both provokes your curiosity as to what went wrong, and makes you hungry for popcorn while fixing said error.

I can't say Compiz or Beryl?

Well I chose Ubuntu because I'm poor and I can't afford a Windows license, that and Ubuntu is perfectly functional for me. It all started when I was offered a copy of...

I put not sure because it was the closest thing to Yes/No

If I really wanted Linux around (as a hobby), I might use it CLI-only on an old machine. But there's no way I'd "waste" a dual core...

I remember using a Centris 610 back in the day. (I was born '91, that machine was bought '92, but we had it till around 2000, my dad figured he might as well replace it with all the worry of the Y2K...

I tried the Alpha 5 live CD, and it didn't get my wireless up and running out of the box. No clue whats up there, seeing as both Feisty and Gutsy did this (on the Live CD)... but it was enough to...

I can't shutdown my computer at night.

My CPU fan is starting to die, if it sits idle for more then a few hours, it grinds it's bearings to death the next time it starts. I have to smack it with a...

I have to disagree with you on the second part.

Ubuntu is not Windows is entirely true, but to say its aim isn't to be Windows is partially false.

It's an Operating System, Windows is an...

I generally do think Compiz has quite a bit of usefulness associated with it.

First off, it's eyecandy, first and foremost, the most impressive eyecandy across any platform. Lets face it, if you...

Here's a shot of mine:
Ubuntu 7.10
Border: Humanoid OS X
Controls: Slickness Black
Icons: OS X Leapord for Ubuntu
Panels: Out of the box

Normally I'd have AWN or Kiba-dock going w/ Compiz but...

You never know, they may be using A/UX. Apple look, and the command line they mess around with :). (Mac OS 7 & 8 with a Unix command line, didn't even know it...

I completely switched to Linux, against my will... I thought I was gonna have a nice dual-boot configuration, but I didn't :P

I had done some dual-boots before so I figured an install of Ubuntu...
