And how do you do that?
I want to leave my headphones permanently plugged in, but I have some rather strong background static for some reason. I am just wondering: is playing that static ultimately damaging to the speakers,...
I have a lot of DVDs I want to backup by burning to blanks and putting the originals away. I have successfully made ISOs of most of the discs ("successfully" being defined as "I can play them in...
Can I update and install new packages with a single apt-get command (I don't mean with "&&") like I can in aptitude or Synaptic?
I have an atrociously lousy Internet connection that will simply stop moving data after a short period of time (a full minute is a rare blessing), although the connection seems to remain open. I have...
miredo wants to start in rc3. Should I copy the link to rc2?
It needs to be launched as root, and should be launched as part of init/upstart/whatever
I installed miredo for IPv6 functionality, but it does not launch during boot (it's in the init folders, though) It works fine if I launch it manually.
My ISP likes to kill transfers of large files, and my only option is to restart the download. I have moved all my repository listings to ftp, so the downloads pick up where they left off, but I still...
Hardly any video editors, period. Cinelerra, Kino, and Blender come to mind, but not much else.
Windows Movie Maker sucks, but it is used in at least one good project.
I have a headless box that I would like to set up in such a way that I can play movies from across the network (it has much more HDD space than my laptop), preferably something easily accessible from...

Ok, he wins that one. ;)
I would like to know how burning works... Do music CDs have their own format? I once burned FLAC...
Thank you very much...
To bad I have mostly been using aptitude. :-[
How can I list what packages I have installed (as opposed to those installed as dependencies), and if possible, in chronological order of installation?
But it would not include the 10.1.x.x range or any value other than 0 in the second octet, right?
I have started playing around with IPTables, and could use some confirmation that I have a firm grasp on the behavior of CIDR. Currently, I have:
ACCEPT all -- 192.168.0.0/16 ...
I think CDs from Shipit are professional-looking. Also, you can buy some discs from the Ubuntu Store.
I would prefer not to mix DEs
The Search button didn't turn up any results, and I didn't know how to rephrase my question.
Maybe I'll be better off using "site:ubuntuforums.org" in Google?
Looks promising.
C++. Currently not much more complex than hello_world.
Pretty bulky, according to aptitude. I'll try it tomorrow.
Does anyone have any suggesions regarding what is a good editor for programming with? Something with a sidepanel for recent documents and the ability to minimize functions would be nice. Kate is...

All hail the might BOFH!
Thanks. Any idea how I can change the setting and have it persist after reboots?
I have a questions about the CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor applet for gnome-panel: What does the "Conservative" setting do? "Powersave", "Performance", and "On Demand" are pretty obvious, but I can't...
How can I assign a hotkey to launch an arbitrary application?
System>>Preferences>>Keyboard Shortcuts doesn't have what I need (I can use that to assign a hotkey to Firefox or a terminal window, but...
