  1. Re: Hey can you guys let me know what you think of this?

    Looks awesome.

    It appears to work with what I were taught to be the important things, Contrast, Repetition, Alignment, and Proximity.

    My only crit is on the white un-1 text over the banner...
  2. [ubuntu] USB Headset: set as in/output automatically?

    I have a logitech G35 gaming headset, which is pretty sweet and works well under Ubuntu. But to use it, I need to go into Sound Preferences and enable it on the Input and Output tabs, in order to be...

    Re: need new laptop please

    If your primary criteria is "cheap", then you should be able to find a Mom and Pop type dealer selling laptops for $100 or less. I know of a couple where I live (Ottawa) selling for $75 - $99...

    Re: Digital Rights Management

    It's possible to do so right now. It's just that you would require proprietary software, and to use it you would either buy it yourself or pirate it, or use its "freeware" version if available.
  5. Re: Mac user declares he's moving to Linux, gets pilloried in the comments section...

    Well after reading his article, I'm sure this guy will be welcomed with open (source) arms from quite a few circles in the free software community.

    Re: Putting Linux on a netbook

    I've heard a lot of good things about Moblin as well.

    If there are two distros you ought to test drive, they are Moblin and UNR.

    Re: Putting Linux on a netbook

    The UNR has a different interface, intended to be less cluttered for smaller screens. Maybe some other optimizations, but not sure.

    Re: Should wine remove the Z drive?

    By default, no. It's already pretty easy to disable it yourself in WineCFG. I don't see this happening until some major exploit is found that targets wine; which is possible if it was a...
  9. [ubuntu] Re: Set Taskbar to auto-hide, will not show up again...

    Ack, I think he intended to say Alt F2, then type in
    gconf-editor, then look in the path described as /apps/panel/toplevels/top_panel_screen0.

    This should give you configuration options.

    Re: Another Friend Converted

    I have a friend who I had gotten into Linux for a little while. He kept Windows on his desktop and Ubuntu on his laptop. Little did I know another friend was starting to use his laptop to do her...
  11. Re: Don't Bother Using Them

    I'm using it more for the signatures than anything. Just something to say "This message is _definitely_ from original_jamingrit". But I would like to be using it for encrypting e-mails that have...
  12. Re: How do I explain OpenPGP signatures and encryption

    That's either a terrible or an awesome idea. I'm just not sure which. I guess you'd want to use some heavy duty encryption for that. It might be better than burying a USB stick in your backyard,...
  13. Re: How do I explain OpenPGP signatures and encryption

    If you don't mind me asking, how did you lose them? I intend on keeping mine backed up on medium hidden and not connected to my computer, and the passphrases written down in a separate place.
  14. Re: How do I explain OpenPGP signatures and encryption

    I don't really intend on pushing encryption, but I do want to make people think about it. Sort of like one of the more memorable quotes from these forums, "Don't preach, just suggest". Plus, I at...
  15. How do I explain OpenPGP signatures and encryption

    Hey all,
    So this is a help request, but it's a bit more general than any other message boards available here, so I thought I may as well try here in the Cafe.

    I'm starting to do more and more...

    Re: Mp3 vs Flac vs CD

    Mp3 is lossy, and flac is loss-less. The difference in quality is extremely subtle. Apparently, it does indeed register at a subconscious level, and studies have been done to show that some people...
  17. Re: NetworkManager is a disgrace to linux!!!

    Cool, thanks. My rule of thumb is that if it's worth a rant, it's worth a bug report; that's one of things that keep the open source engine running.
  18. Re: NetworkManager is a disgrace to linux!!!

    Actually, I've been having the same issues as dragos240. It's subtle; I never noticed any problem until switching to Slackware and then switching back for a little while. The funny thing is that...
  19. Re: H I L P ! ،، what is the most famous "metal" team

    Why is there no mention of your beloved community manager's band? I am of course, talking about Jono Bacon's Severed Fifth project.

    It's actually quite good. And...
  20. Re: Hardcore terminal users; tell us why you are at home in the command line

    One of the best ways to learn emacs is the built-in tutorial, but it's pretty wordy so I would also reccommend printing of a cheatsheet:

  21. Re: Linux kernel 2.6 local root exploit! It works everywhere!

    Yes indeed it does.

    Despite the truth in your statement, I have to ask; why why why would you revive this dead thread just to flame Microsoft??
  22. [ubuntu] Re: How can I get a ZFS drive into ubuntu?

    If it's not already running, you'll need to start the service with the
    zfs-fuse command. I'm not sure if there's a 'proper' way of doing this under Ubuntu, but if you're intending this to be a...
  23. [ubuntu] Re: How can I get a ZFS drive into ubuntu?

    Looking around, it looks like using a ZFS volume will take more than a simple mount command. I am by no means an expert on ZFS, and whatever I write here is just stuff I'm looking up, and...
  24. [ubuntu] Re: How can I get a ZFS drive into ubuntu?

    ZFS is an awesome filesystem, but unfortunately it won't ever be shipped in a linux distro by default unless the licensing issues are resolved. You can, however, install it yourself.

    [ubuntu] Re: terminate a browser

    my favourite way is to use xkill.

    Press Alt-F4 for the run dialog, enter
    xkill and then left-click on the thing you want to kill. Right-click to cancel.
