I can watch in firefox but the viewer has limited controls. So I would rather watch it on a regular video application. The thing is I've tried everything and I get sound in all and video in none. "media...
Starting an Interactive shell over SSH is slow to one of my servers. Everything leading up to it including negotiating encryption is fast, but then it hangs for 45 seconds. After that, it finishes and I have a shell. How do I identify what it's hanging on? I tried clearing the environment and...
With this i can check, that there is "internet connection". if there is no "internet connection" (succesfull pings to this 2 places), then it waits 600 sec, then it runs along:
ping -W 1 -c 4 www.google.com >& /dev/null && ping -W 1 -c 4 www.yahoo.com >& /dev/null || sleep ...
I install GRML on my USB disk with the grml2usb tool. But when I boot from the USB, it first boots to a blank screen with "boot:" text on it. I must type the boot options myself to boot the system. I want it to boot to the system automatically. How can I do it? I am new to GRML, and I checked the...
One night my firefox just started showing "Server not found" for all websites (i.e. "Firefox can't find the server at www.mozilla.com."). I noticed that it can find websites if make an entry in the /etc/hosts-file.
I have already started firefox in safe mode, the problem persisted.
I removed my...

first, i'm not an expert in linux but i can fairly move and play around with the OS.
the problem in short is, i was able to find wireless networks, but when i try to authenticate it, network-manager keeps on asking me password that seems like it's not able to authenticate at all.

I just installed Debian Squeeze on my E1505. In order to get my wireless card working, I'm trying to install network-manager-gnome (I already installed firmware-iwlwifi)
My current question is, how can I figure out which CD this
(and its dependencies) is on, and in general where is this listed...
I just killed best-practises (a misspelling of a meta-tag). I'm not fond of tips-and-tricks, troubleshooting, homework (homework discussion) or unix (unix tag discussion) either. Will anyone speak up for these tags?
Aside: I encourage y'all to go over the tag list and

I'm not sure this is worth taking to meta, and it is not unix.sx specific, but neither of the two main formatting methods available are completely satisfactory if you have a block of text you want to be preserved more or less verbatim, but which is not code. You currently have option 1: block quote, which doesn't preserve newlines etc, and option 2: code, which does, but colors it in unexpected ways, assuming it is code.
Option 2 is preferable, but how about a "display text but don't color it" option?
This is now implemented. In addition to tag inference (a recent change), you can manually specify the language as a hint to Google Code Prettify.
The spec is:
<!-- language: lang-or-tag-here -->
code goes here

If I was to chmod 777 blah.sh on server A and then move it to server B, would it retain the permissions, or would it default to some other permissions once it hit server B?
Thanks in advance.

@GeorgeEdison Your question has me confused, too (maybe just because it's past my bedtime). What is supposed to be displayed on the DisplayLink device: the X server running inside VirtualBox (since you're showing xorg.conf in the VM), or the VirtualBox console (“The actual VBox window is blank”)?
