There are other articles online I've read recently that are pushing the longer-the-better "passphrase" method, rather than the sort-of-standard 6-8...

Most likely Puppy Linux will be the answer. If you want to stick to Ubuntu-based (puppy switched to Slackware-based, if I recall correctly), you can try Lubuntu (the lightest), and I believe there...

Jaws. Seems to be on every second day during the summer!

That worked, thanks! This apparmor rabbit hole is deep indeed...

I've notice the following entries from the apparmor.d./usr.bin.firefox profile:




# noisy

Hmm, not sure about the whole separate login/desktop wallpapers (having 2 different ones). You could try modifying (at your own peril of course) the default value for the login background. Try...

I'm running 12.04 and I just started getting my hands dirty with apparmor. I installed the default apparmor profile for Firefox, set it to enforce and restarted. Everything appeared to be working...

Do you know how this would work? I'm wondering because I thought the power going off/dipping/spiking would be essentially the same as just unplugging your laptop and running on battery. I've had the...

Hi, I have been having this problem as well, and I think I figured out what they problem is and how to fix it. I bet you chose to encrypt your home folder didn't you? That is what I did, and I read...

Bug still exists in Xubuntu 12.04. Using Thunar will result (sometimes) in not being able to see any of the files in your home directory due to the error in reading the hidden .gvfs folder. The...

Works perfectly (posting now from my new 192.168.1.150 IP ), I didn't know you could do this, this has been a great learning experience! I would like to learn more about networking basics like this...

Looked around a bit more in the web menu and couldn't find it, but if you're willing to try to find that functionality it is a Linksys Wireless-G WRT54G model.

It did find the following from the...

Nevermind...fixed! I just restarted the router and voila! Download and upload works according to the settings used in the above post. The only catch is that if my IP changes I will have to log back...

Thanks for this! I've successfully added port forwarding to my wireless router. Unfortunately, I don't see this mac address forwarding capability you speak of, but it could be that this router is...

Anybody get this working yet? I've tried all the tutorials, read them all, messed around with allowing in and out various ports including: 6667:7000 OUT and IN TCP 51413 OUT and IN TCP/UDP In...

You mistyped two of the commands -- cat & rfkill, (added 'h' to /etc, and typed 'rekill' instead of 'rfkill') from the initial list, according to your pasted code. Don't know the answer here, just...

Has any of this worked for you? Have you made any progress?

sudo lshw[/QUOTE]

Just wondering, is there a GUI version of this output, or something similar? Seems like there should be something equivalent to Device Manager in Windows installed by default...

Depends on what you want to do. If you are just messing around and doing simple editing, some on that list that was posted. If you are a professional looking for something...don't bother. The quality...

Xubuntu is a lighter version taking up less ram and resources and should work. If that doesn't work for you, you might need to go lighter to something non-Ubuntu like Puppy Linux which takes very...

I had the exact same problem when I upgraded to Firefox 4.0 on Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit. The weird thing was, on Google.ca it looked like that but on Google.com, it was in English. I tried all the online...

Sorry, found the answer here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1000197

Now that is not intuitive at all! Right-clicking and adding places should be easy. It seems like such an obvious...

Hi, How do I add a custom folder to "places" on the top panel. I tried right clicking and choosing "Edit Menus" (also System>Preferences>Main Menu does the same). I am trying to add my Dropbox folder...

This worked! I tried this method first because I wasn't sure about installing the 10.10 maverick package, as suggested, just in case it somehow messed up other stuff on my system that needs the...

The 32-bit version is the one I installed (installed without a problem, but when I try to run it...nothing, and I get the libs error when I try to start it from a terminal)

If it works for you,...
