Dear ubuntu baristas,

Ever since I upgraded my ubuntu machines to 14.04, I've been affected by a gfortran bug, which renders it completely unusable by some software packages I use in a day to day...

The E6220 is actually Sandy Bridge (released Fall 2011). The Ivy Bridge equivalent is the E6230. They're identical except the chipset and a slightly brighter panel. There's no full-voltage Haswell...

In my experience, enterprise Dells are well supported. I've got a fully souped-up E6220 that runs Ubuntu (and RHEL 6) like a charm. Both the haswell based Latitude E7240 (12.5", 1.3 kg) and the E7440...

Heh, I've grown to appreciate my T400 more lately. It's no coincidence that happened after my employer bought me a Dell Latitude E6220. Okay, yeah, the Dell has a top of the line i7 processor and an...

The only thing I can say is to wear protective items. Never without a helmet, and take care of your knees.

That way they'll get to Cupertino first. And we'll start seeing gnome feet all around the London Underground.

EDIT: I'm unhappy with the current spats between Canonical and Gnome, and not...

I was called a while ago by these guys, I think. I'm not normally at home when scammers and advertisers call home, but that day I decided to work a few hours from home. Since I work on several Linux...

Are you linking a.f to any other FORTRAN library? Any other. Be it blas, atlas, lapack... anything. If you are using ifort for a single fortran file, you'll have to use it for everything.

As an...

If you are not using other FORTRAN libraries, my suggestion is actually compiling both a.f and b.f with ifort, not with gfortran. Personally, I've never used quadruple precision... and I work with...

From what little I know, you must compile both fortran sources with the same fortran compiler. I think ifort may interface with gcc, so that it won't require icc, but mixing fortran compilers is...

For the looks or for the sturdiness? HP's pro line of notebooks is good, has some metal as a rollcage and is ridiculously expensive in Spain (i.e. the price in € is higher than the price in $... and...

For reference, the file libj3dcore-ogl.so is located in the package libjava3d-jni. It is still possible for java to complain about vecmath, a jar contained in the original libjava3d-java that you...

Is your thinkpad equipped with hybrid graphics (although disabled in the BIOS)? I'm really really puzzled, and don't know what's wrong.

It happened to my mother once a long ago, like 12 years. I was walking with her on a Sunday morning, and went on to shop some groceries. Because she didn't have any notes, she went to a cash machine...

Ever since its inception for Karmic, I knew this initiative was going to be good. "100 paper cuts" is IMHO the best idea the Ubuntu board has had.

Mind you, I'm a physicist. No offence taken, though.

I *knew* there was something manly about that.

Yeah, all very nice and dandy. Let's hope now it understands 27^(1/3). Gcalctool really hates fractions in exponents, so I ended up using either python (writing 1.0/3.0 sucks, though) or writing...

You may want to give "Inconsolata" a go. It is a monospaced font similar to Consolas (the Vista and 7 monospaced font, AFAIK). It's available in the repository, as well. A Serif font you may like for...

Sorry for the late reply after the "death call". I was referring to Spain. Spain had actually one of the worst accuracy records of the world cup. I did a quick check, and I'm almost sure only Ghana...

Mmm... maybe that Arsenal played a better football than I've been told. According to my sonic screwdriver, Spain is the team that have shot more. They are also the team that have shot more often on...

Personally, although Chelsea was the better team in Stamford Bridge, I think the opposite was true in Barcelona. Anyway, that was always going to be a tight draw. Better yet, the best part about...

LOL, I had to look it up in google to find out who this bloke is. It turns out he's the referee of Chelsea-Barça, 2nd match of the semifinals of the 2008-2009 champions league. I don't like teams...

If you're in the UK, the BBC highlights can be seen here. I'm aslo pretty confident they'll put it in iplayer. Else... sorry, I can't help.

Spain did have like 4 very nice opportunities. Furthermore, they were able to pace the match to the speed it suited them. IIRC, Germany had two good chances: the Özil (EDIT: it was Trochowski,...
