I should add for future reference, that I was in the gUFW Advanced Tab, that I selected to allow OUT, and TCP, and entering data in the To: destination portion. I entered string "465,995" with no IP...

Thanks for the link, dino99 -- gave me something to investigate.

I did successfully enter a rule in gUFW's advanced tab without specifying an IP address, to allow two ports in one entry as...

This recorder has filled the need!

I can record sound output from Wine software and Linux software.

Save it as 32 bit wave, or as CD quality ogg, and if I do the latter I can convert it to 16...

Thanks everyone, I will check out the suggestions made here, starting with the audio-recorder offered by mc4man, then the sound-recorder from ajgreeny. There are some good links there to follow up...

Hi,
I run gUFW to enter data into my firewall, and am very restrictive on what is permitted.

Gmail is running me ragged lately with many changes of IP address, so I am entering yet another IP...

I share with you a fix to a longstanding issue I have had with the Unity Desktop in Ubuntu Linux 12.04

I got fed-up with the Unity Desktop's "overlay" scrollbars, and found a way to globally...

I like your humor -- rock salt indeed to make the window get traction on the desktop and stop on a dime.

I didn't realize I was reading my own post when I noticed the O.P was describing to a tee...

This command will call for your password and then update the system. That should get around the update issue with the gui tools.

And I believe this will bring your OS up to the most recent...

There are many words that I use in a day that are not in the dictionaries used by spell checkers, but they are either in the dictionary or are found by Google to be correct on a dictionary web site....

I enjoy working with the Gimp, but there has been one ting that always gets under my skin: When I open the program it often sits behind something else, usually the file window in which I have...

I can open the HUD and search for some files I have stored by name, but there is no path information to let me know where my file is in the system. I would like to be able to go looking around the...

In Ubuntu 12.04, I went to exit an application and ended up looking at the shutdown screen with its choices to restart, cancel or shut down.

I took my time to absorb this unexpected result and...

Sure enough I am using Australian English over here. I moved that to United States English.

Thanks Stan!

I have a solution for stopping the slide of the car into the ditch on wintry roads, and I tried that solution to sliding windows that don't stop when I stop dragging them.

I have found several ways to get around some issues, and I may as well share with you what I have found.

But I would like an answer to how I can make Firefox drag and stop when I stop dragging it...

I regularly use Sound Converter to convert an MP3 to WAV, I edit the file and then convert it from WAV to MP3 again.

Too bad there isn't a quick Preferences button on the GUI, for otherwise I have...

Hello cosmoshell,
I wasn't sure how to answer your question, so I followed the two links provided by kingtiger01. First link goes to a

Bab1,
I'm sorry I didn't get back in sooner, but thank you for the thorough write-up in response to my question. I have encountered Linux permissions in my web hosting environment, where I saw no...

If you can read a file, you see its existence,...
