@aking1012 maybe delete the reasons after.. say a month or two.. else send a mail to the user.. let him deal with the reason? to delete or not to delete
@LnxSlck not necessarily. if you voted it as "the part about XYZ is factually incorrect", someone else voted it as "horrifying formatting and lack of grammar", and a third person voted it as "copy and paste from an old forum with no reference" that's three text blobs for one answer. also what @JourneymanGeek said
@aking1012 hmmm.. so downvote reasons would also be required to exist forever... so if ya'll keep the downvote reasons its gonna take up loads of space.. especially if its compulsory...
@jokerdino someone i know of has a userscript that does that. not me but i solved a problem in chat once and had a massive rep-spike followed by a rep regression
@jokerdino it's like trying to gift rep(bounty for a problem solved in chat) without giving away rep. i understand it, but it's impossible to say that's okay and still catch the bad ones
@hakermania clean desktop policy - gnome devs dont like icons on their desktop. There is unlikely to be another answer to have both different wallpaper and icons together.
as the title says I´m searching for a mediaserver for Ubuntu 12.04.
I have already tried Mediatomb, Serviio, Miro (media management), Songbird (media management). But the thing is, that I need a mediaserver which is able to share the media via DLNA and which is performant, so optional with an ext...
does whatever you want I think - have tested it on just music though - think it just streams whatever you ask it - you can set it up as well to transcode to other stream types.
The Community Vote is closed 2 days now. Nobody has told us (the developers) a word. The counting was done by the voting site, so there's nothing else to do rather than to announce us the results. Isn't this weird?
@fossfreedom neat. was just asking...haven't used it
@hakermania don't get your knickers in a twist. they might need to verify the who on winners before announcement. it would suck to announce that someone won and then not be able to give them the prize wouldn't it?
@Anwar it was a while back though - I seem to remember that you couldnt mount a windows FS that was in hibernation state. Might be worth testing this again to see if this is still the same.
@hakermania you're just complaining. the point is, a winner would need to have it verified that the code was original or mostly original, make sure they aren't DQ-ed for some reason from the rules, etc. stop complaining.
@aking1012 UI is a part of coding. And, you know something? There was the 'Innovation' review criterion. I don't think that your arguments are good enough.
@hakermania I dont know how you concluded that just because they have the same UI means it is the same code. i can make it look similar with using a totally different code, etc
@jokerdino I'm not planning to get anything. I just point out that, as my good friend nothingspecial (who didn't participate) said: "The whole thing has been handled incredibly badly"
yeah, i wonder due to the discussion yesterday about dropping alternate altogether and server-x86
copying the package list should be really easy, but the debian-installer part might be a little more complicated. something that should be checked i think. anyway, moving on
iirc that was the point of disasgreement yesterday on irc. there were some options like that where server was the recommended path for people that used to use alternate, but then server x86 was getting dropped
So if I want to encrypt my whole HDD with e.g.: LUKS (are there any better solutions? - e.g.: in performance?) then I have to download&burn a "ubuntu-11.04-alternate-amd64.iso" CD. That's ok, I understand.
The Question: Are there any minimal ISO's (like the Debian netinstall CD) *WITH LUKS ...
8.04.x, 10.04.x, 12.04.x, 14.04.x, 16.04.x all LTS. anything else isn't.
12.04.1 isn't necessarily more stable than 11.10. look at all the graphics driver bugs and whatnot. "more stable" could mean lots of things. what doesn't crash with the current fglrx driver for one, latest security patches for another, etc etc. you can't quantitatively say for sure X is "more stable" than Y
@jrg that asm programming course video set i referenced a while back, one of the ex-students wrote a js emulator for the microprocessor in question. that was kind of neat i thought
I have encountered a similar problem previously, a blank screen until the Ubuntu login using an older LCD monitor. The monitor displayed "frequency out of range".
This can be resolved by using the 'out-of-range' option in the advanced section of boot repair or editing grub manually.
Have a look...
