Yeah, me too. I returned to Gnome Shell after a couple of years with Unity, and I'm really, really enjoying it. I was using 3.10 through the repos, but there was an awful lot of breakage going on, so...
Thank you both for the informative answers!
Can anyone advise me about the salient differences between Gnome 3.8 and 3.10? I've been using Unity for the past couple of years, and kind of by administrative fiat, when I upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10,...
Oh, lord do I remember the media player wars. Amarok vs. Rhythmbox vs. Banshee vs Songbird vs Exaile...it was hilarious. But that was just a warm-up for the "buttons on the left side" wars. Whose...
I wish I could help, but I have none of the skills you need. good luck, I hope you find some people.
ah, you are correct, monkeybrain. It's been a while and I forgot. It's the atareao repository.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:atareao/atareao
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install...
my-weather-indicator is pretty comprehensive.
sudo apt-get install my-weather-indicator
It was somewhat unintentional. I updated my laptop to 13.10 with Unity. Then I realized that I couldn't modify that annoying-as-hell notify-osd, which I used to be able to change after adding the...
OK, using the gnome-next and gnome-staging PPAs, I've successfully installed Gnome 3.10 on Ubuntu 13.10. Sweet.
However, it seems the Gnome core apps aren't included in those PPAs. I found...
VERY IMPORTANT GNUCASH WARNING FOR SMALL BUSINESS!!!!!!!!
I've been using Ubuntu to run my practice since 8.10. For a long time, I ran quickbooks in a VM for my accounting needs, but then I...
Because, by using Linux, you are engaging in a "free" software community, in which it is the users' responsibility to find bugs, report them, and help one another with workarounds.
Nothing is...
An informative and entertaining reply! Thank you.
I don't want a political discussion. I want a technical one. I'm using openvpn, has it, too, been compromised?
I want to sync my tasks to my owncloud calDAV task manager. I'm ok on the Android end, but I can't find any stand-alone task managers on Linux. Thunderbird will do it, but, again, I'm looking for...
Security has become an important concern of mine subsequent to the recent leaks. I'm looking for a good secure IM server.
I was a journalist covering the minicomputer world when X windows debuted. I still remember all the "thin client" talk. It was the groove back then.
Wait, how come my wallch doesn't look like that? I've got 3.0.
So I wanna know how you got yourself permabanned...
What makes Nixnote not "real?" I've been using it for quite some time, seems to work. Seems to be a bit insulting to the developer to say that it isn't "real."
The leolik ppa, which worked in both 12.04 and 12.10 no longer works in 13.04, nor do commands like:
gsettings set com.canonical.notify-osd gravity 3
So the old ways I used to modify the...
Zotero is excellent. You don't have to be a student. I'm a clinician and have a free account. It's only after you've used up a fairly generous free memory allocation that you have to start paying.
I'm on version 1.5 and sync still is not working.
My employees love the Unity interface. It works perfectly for work.
Scrivener is by far the best of the bunch, both for fiction and non-fiction. It isn't a wikithingy at all.
Although it is still in beta, I've been using it for about two years. The first couple of...
Reverse the question. Why use gmail? It's slower than a local client, requires internet connection to use, requires me to permit Google to read all of my mail, including confidential health...
