gnome-panel always on top
Does anyone know how I might configure the gnome-panel so that open windows can cover it? I'd like to have it free floating in the middle of the desktop without always having to look at it floating...
A lot of users try to imitate OS X's Dock. I can't begin to understand why anyone would want to do this, especially on a laptop. It just seems to me a ridiculous waste of screen real estate.
I find it strange that so many Linux users clamor for more adoption of their chosen operating system (or distro). Why not clamor for better interoperability instead?
Good call. What am I thinking?
jukingeo,
By "the game," I'm assuming you're talking about the emulator. Deleting the .gens folder in your home directory does not affect your installation, it only affects the configurations that...
jukingeo,
I'd guess that you fiddled something up when you were playing with your audio settings before. I'm not sure what setting it could be (I don't currently have Gens installed and haven't...
Are you running it with software rendering or OpenGL?
It's true that computer hardware isn't easy to recycle, but new advances also bring about more efficient power usage. It's just up to developers to make use of that efficiency.
As they say, "What...
Debian Etch - stability/reliability.
When learning a foreign language, the best thing you can do for yourself is to throw away your native language as a template. Rather than associate new vocabulary words and grammatical rules with...
I agree with MaximB. It's just interesting.
Debian Etch. That's it. That's right. ;)
1. Do you think you are a geek?
Sometimes, but postmodernity makes static definitions of identity tough to fully achieve.
2. Do your friends / family think so?
I'm not sure. They probably do...
This article may interest you. Gutteridge makes some pretty compelling arguments about software piracy.
Sometimes I really miss the '90s.
Alanis Morissette said it best.
"And isn't it ironic
Don't you think?
Who would've thought?
It figures..."
I still don't understand why everyone wants to emulate OS X's Dock. It's a screen real estate hog unless you autohide it, at which point you lose your pretty eye candy anyway. And Windows's Start...
The Power Rangers always start off fighting the Putties and the episode's new monster on the playground, in a park, in an abandoned warehouse... But can they end it there? Certainly not! Call in...
Good point. Then again, I suppose you don't really need to upgrade every six months in between LTS releases either. There are definitely a lot of people around here still using Feisty. How long do...
Give those same people a Mac instead of their Windows computer and I'm sure they'd be crying and moaning about it just as much. The average user just doesn't like change. :neutral:

Debian Stable is good medicine for this type of compulsion. Boy am I glad I broke that need-to-upgrade-every-six-months habit. ;)
Is your repository still being maintained? I recently added it to my sources.list in Debian Etch (which is no longer numbered 3.2, by the way). Aptitude updates just fine with it, but the sdlmame...
I'm not sure...haven't had the need for a 64-bit package myself. You'll want to poke around in the package's thread to get some real answers, though.
Go play with Gentoo for a while. :)
Seriously, though, meindian523 makes a good point.
