hey guys. I'd like to ask for some information. I have just posted something that might be a duplicate in the eyes of moderators...but I think it isnt. I'd like to know if there is a simple "instal and then choose" way to set up nautilus on Xubuntu 12.04.
I flagged this answer, and questions by this user on SU, SF, UL and here - he has had a clear pattern of similar posts with minimal content, linking back to the site. This sort of breaks the self promotion rule and seems flaggable to me.
I only worked this out cause I remember seeing the domain ...
@rsoul In regards to your question deletion. If I remove your question the bounty will be refunded to you. This isn't quite fair since you've promised it for a solution and you got one (regardless how simple the question is). If you truly want the question deleted first award the bounty then you can delete it yourself.
I use recordmydesktop to capture my desktop in video. The problem is, when I plug-in my microphone it doesn't detect it. I have to restart the system so that recordmydesktop knows that there's a microphone attached and that it needed to record the sound from there. Is there a way to do this without having to restart my system?
@MarcoCeppi I understand. But the only answer isn't the solution (since I already had the font installed) and the whole question is caused by my stupidity. I would rather lose the rep and not award to anyone...
@RSoul You can't just lose rep, if the question is deleted by a moderator the rep is refunded. The user did help you as they pointed out it needed to be applied. Just award the bounty and you can delete the question from the site
We all know compizconfig-settings-manager is pretty buggy, but will installing it itself break things? I mean, I just need to use it to force all app windows to open at a specified size.
@RolandiXor-TheIceMan I don't know, with the exception of a few small things (Finding the closed button when maximized, and misinformation) it shows a great user experience as far as easy discover-ability
@RolandiXor-TheIceMan - Am with Marco, My brother which hated Linux, is trying 12.10 for the first time (First Linux experience) and took him less than 30 minutes to get used to and learn Unity, specially after he left the Dash button pressed and the Help wallpaper appeared. After that, smooth sailing like Marco's boat.
Then, there is the other case of my dad. First time Linux user, Ubuntu user with 12.10 and it took him half a day. But after that he enjoyed more the easy ways of Ubuntu that having to click click click like in windows to get to some specific places. He also liked Dash when it looked for his movies.
maybe an idea would be to create a version of 2ubuntu in spanish that I could work on
just brainstorming here
Finished seeing the video @RolandiXor-TheIceMan . The mother had a lot of questions which is good. One idea that came from the video would be to merge the options in System Settings for Appearence and Display. Both are related to video. How it's display and how we want to see it.
Same would be for Keyboard layout and Keyboard. Both are talking about keyboards.
@MarcoCeppi I've run into a bit of a problem. When Python is running under Apache, it isn't finding the stuff in ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages. Here's the WSGI file:
from sys import path
path.insert(0, '/home/b1005/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages')
path.insert(0, '/home/b1005/2buntu-django-blog/')
from twobuntu.wsgi import application
The twobuntu.wsgi file tries to import django.core.wsgi but fails (according to the Apache error log).
However, the django directory does indeed exist in ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages.
I've got a lot of Desktop Environments installed, and as a result, my desktop selection menu on the Unity greeter is rather long. This shouldn't be a problem, but for some reason there is no way to scroll. The okay button is off of the screen!
I reported a bug about the issue, but the bug was ig...
@MarcoCeppi - If you didn't know about brainstorm being still opened, that makes me think how important it is for new ideas. Is there another way you would recommend for me to put that idea in?
@RolandiXor-TheIceMan - How would I go about trying to get to the right people to do this or how would I do if I get the code and change it accordingly for them to accept it?
@RolandiXor-TheIceMan - When did all of this die god!. I mean what happen to giving devs ideas. I thought the whole paper cur, brainstorm and whatnot was for this.
@RolandiXor-TheIceMan - Going to test how dead the Ubuntu ideas are. Posted the same info in Google Plus, Linkedin and mailing list. Hope somebody reads it.
I tried to remove the long time unused packages from apt-cacher archive using find:

Is it possible to force all application windows to open at a specific resolution (i.e. a set specific size like 1280x720 pixels)?
