I learned:

I got kmttg running on my Linux box (but no comskip yet). It's downloading the TiVo files and transcoding them nicely, and much faster than before on my Mac laptop. I will figure out comskip at...

Previous builds of safejumper do not require a root authentication. I upgraded to the then-latest build months ago, got the request to run openvpn as root on my first launch. I promptly reverted to...

mc4man, Thank you for sharing your ppa. I successfully got dvdstyler there, without having to build it myself.

Much appreciated!

sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda showed two partitions, the first one an EFI system partition with a code of EF00. The second partition had a code of 8300. So only the second partition...

Thank you Dennis N. I am away from my computer right now but will try gdisk as you suggest when I get home. I did not know about the codes (EF00 and 8300) and am anxious to see what i get back from...

Also /dev/sda1 and...
