I'm avoiding the review queue for editing. Seems that when I start editing straight from when the post is posted it's very less likely to get a collision with other editors.
@Seth I mean edits when another user has already edited it and I cannot submit it anymore. Usually my edit is more thorough and took more time as a result - yet it's discouraging to do so as the longer you wait to press "Submit" the more likely that banner will pop up stating you'll have to start from scratch.
I read that it is used on the computer. It has been coming up on my Android Galaxy S2 it is on at least 3 times at once anf up to 7or 8 at once. they are called kworker/0:1 through kworker/0:4 and/or kworker/u:1 through kworker/u:4 occasionally it comes up as using 100 % of the cpu my phone also...

mezzo mezzo. i'm sort of excited about some arduino gear i'm looking at. i just wish there were a local store that kept all this stuff in stock. i'm in chicago, there should be...maybe there is and i just don't know about it
@mateo_salta afaict - yes.
we should in the horribly near future have a "better" uefi boot question/answer
@mateo_salta i don't have the gear to test it at home, but we have a uefi test laptop at work. maybe i can convince them to let me try it out next week. then someone can blog about how awesome canonical is
@AbrahamVanHelpsing maybe just some of the boards I think tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/… The cool thing about the Naperville location is they have most of the online stock in the back.
seems legit, but i didn't check the links or how it actually displays. if seth says it works right for him, i believe it....also the git-diff is confused
It doesn't need an answer...I'll delete it after userscript testing...
The deal is, I have to extend the length to get passed a quality standard. So I'm rambling on here. Really, I promise I'm asking about an EOL release of Ubuntu.
Gods of standard-making, please see fit to say "You may pas...
In this question, the person is unable to install a package. I believe this is due to the package only being available for the amd64 build of Ubuntu. However, according to Launchpad, it will be available for the 32 bit version as well in Ubuntu 13.04.
I know questions about the next version of U...
@Lucio looks like it is installing , but all you needed was just the first "sudo add-apt" to run in terminal, or to add the sources in the list (with gksudo probally better than sudo on opening gedit) so the sources look like this : deb http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/mariadb/repo/10.0/ubuntu precise main deb-src http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/mariadb/repo/10.0/ubuntu precise main
Ah! SE is spoiling me. Every time I read a forum or see Yahoo Answers I'm like "AH! Uncapitalized "i"s! Where's the edit button.." only to remember this isn't a Stack site :(
and with that, good night.
Oh, and tell the review queue to do something. I'm getting board.
Is what I've done unethical in any way? I feel it may be. Please take a look at this question and my answer in which I've mentioned providing nearly the same answer twice before. Counting the present answer, it would now make three. What do you people think?
I want to offer bounty to a question and the question already have a bounty. Can I add additional bounty for the question? Also the question is not asked by myself.
In review, I'm seeing a couple subtle changes. First, the wording on the first popup changed to 'This question has been asked before and already has an answer.'(emphasis mine)
The next dialogue is 'Where has this question been asked and answered?'
I never give any consideration to whether a...
I let my mind wander and just turn the pages. There's some good stuff in there but maybe could have been done even more effectively in 1/100 the length.
I'm new in ask-ubuntu (but have other stackexchange accounts). Are suggested edits broken or am I doing something wrong? They don't show up in my activity tab.
ah okay, I included quantserv.com in the allowed javascript domains (migh thave lost that somewhere) and now I get a "less than 6 letters" message.
Thanks for the feedback.
Still somewhat of "not nice", because when a typo in a command keeps the example from working, but still is less than 6 letters for an edit; that would still be a good edit in my eyes. But that is a different issue.
In a cruel twist, the person with the leading answer for my bountied question has turned his post into a community wiki answer by editing it a lot. Is he still going to win the reputation for the bounty?
Also, it's not actually a substantially new answer. Had I liked it 11 months ago, I wouldn'...

I read What are "Community Wiki" posts? but it's still not clear to me if I can offer a bounty to a community wiki answer?
@fossfreedom it should be either one, so sudo cow/pbuilder is not a valid command, but sudo cow and sudo pbuilder should be (well needs more parameters)

I have installed Ubuntu 12.10 on my Acer Aspire 5742G recently but I can't neither put it to hibernation nor suspend it. If I hibernate it then when I press the power to wake it up, it doesn't show anything on the display and I have to force power it down (by pressing the power for a few seconds)...
I know how to list available packages from the repos and so on, but how can I find a list that matches up equivalent meta-packages, such as the build-essential.
Is there such a thing and if not what would be a sensible approach to find such close/similar matches?
