well seeing as I can basically watch LaRosa's bean count go up in realtime, her dominance in this field is seemingly secure--If there's even any real reason to compete that is. I say she because she...

Instead of messing with playlists and such I just have all my music in the currently enqued to play list. I am using Sonata 1.5.2 (the latest version) and mpd 0.13. When i start up from a cold boot...

In order to remove the minimization effect with metacity, I enabled "reduced resources" and enabled assistive technology. I also unchecked the option to treat password dialogs as normal windows. ...

be sure you aren't trying to remap the keys over the keys of player two if your are using RF-mod. If so, i have noticed that one or two of the keys will refuse to be recognized until player two...

I like jedit as well, but i only use it for program creation as it is slow. It DOES have ALL the features you could imagine though.

just compiled and installed on gutsy. It was quite easy, took about an hour to make though. Works perfectly.

sorry about that 36 year old fat guy post... I was just going by the stereotype. I knew that wasn't a reality. It's nice to see so many of us here. Have any of you ever had any issues with using...

yes this is what I am talking about. I'm glad some non-flamers are in here too. I'll bet you are very productive with your ubuntu box!

I took the advice of some of you and got the latest version of compiz fusion up and running. As I was turning off some useless features, I had a hard system crash. Both keyboard and mouse stopped...

If it helps make it faster...then why do things get slower on my computers when running it?
