I have a Samsung Series7 and cannot figure out how to fix my touchpad. I found the advice at this post, this post, and this post, and tried adjusting the numbers for PressureMotionMinZ, PalmDetect,...

So, turns out these issue was not based in nautilus, but in gedit, which was automatically creating backup files. I stopped them from being created in the first place by un-checking the box for...

I don't run my own IMAP server. (This is my work email.) Anything I delete in Evolution disappears from the ISP, because hen I login online rather than through Evolution, my emails are gone there as...

So, I have realized that all the emails that I deleted in Evolution did not get sent to either the Evolution Trash folder or my IMAP Trash folder, but completely disappeared. I don't understand why....

OK, it turns out this wasn't what was wrong with my email. Evolution still just deletes my messages instead of sending them to the trash!!!!
