I suggest "things" has to go in "things brings"
I want to open secret files on Ubuntu Natty and after my work delete the history of open files or any recorded activity during last:
one hour
three hours
one day
one week
etc...
how can I do this, with GUI or at least in terminal.
Thanks!
How can I hide recent files that my Ubuntu Netbook's unity menu shows when I click on the files and folder icon?
Okay ! I watch porn sometimes and right after that it appears in the files and folder menu.
And believe me, that is not a good thing. :D
So, please tell me if there is a way to do t...
My Ubuntu is consistently failing to properly unmount the disk when shutting down, which means that I have to boot twice each time (I don't reboot often, but it is an issue nonetheless). I've got no idea why did it start doing this - how can I diagnose why is it doing this?
@OctavianDamiean I had problems with fstab mounts once slowing down shutdown/restart but I think that was a permissions issue as they were mounted as root
I tend to agree, especially if you have transparency on your command shells - then there are only a few places on the image that you can have your shell positioned and still see the text
@htorque The launcher API as a bunch of different ways to highlight an item. Such as an "urgent label", which also gives the background a red tint, I suppose that wouldn't be a problem
I have a few small scripts that I use for routine tasks. They require simple parameters to run. Rather than running them from the terminal, I'd prefer to pick something from the menu, be presented with a simple window with fields to input the parameters, click a "Go" button and have the script ru...
@GeorgeEdison userful.com offers a commercial setup, if you're willing to pay (and if they do business in canada), I assume you can't go wrong (and you have someone to blame if it goes wrong)
k :) Art is nothing to do with the content. It becomes art by means of the viewer's response to it. The purpose of art is to provoke a response, pleasurable or otherwise. Quite often, art makes commentary on events or feelings of the viewer. If a work of art can invoke a response, and then make you question your response, it's "social commentary" or "controversial".
So, the only means to say some piece of art is good or bad is by the quality of the craftsmanship. Otherwise, it's all equally valid. The thing you posted is very poor craftsmanship, i think. That makes it bad art, maybe, but art none the less.
so where does it end? "for something to be art, it can have no purpose other than itself". I have a hard time believing that or even understanding where that line is drawn. for example...I have one of those inspirational framed pictures in my office that says "Brillance - when a collection of brilliant minds, hearts, and talents come together...expect a masterpiece." Above this text is a large picture....
you are saying that this is not art because it's purpose is to inspire and motivate?
@sadmicrowave According to this theory, some things like Dance and theatre are not art, so you're right to call BS. I just think it makes a lot of sense (and I don't care for dance anyway)
As Ubuntu 10.10 seems to neither detect my graphics card (Intel 82852/855GM) automatically nor use corresponding Intel driver even after manually installing it, I am looking forward to manually configure X (shouldn't I?) Where an I find configuration files I need to edit?
many of the things that used to be configured in xorg.conf are now somewhere else, namely in /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d if you're on 10.04 or /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d if you're on 10.10
and if you don't have those directories, X -configure will create them
Is that helpful at all? I can't really test any of this :\

Where is the xorg.conf file in Ubuntu 10.04?
I couldn't find it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
