Well I had a query about Ubuntu Touch.
If I am planing to buy a new phone now, what phone models should I be searching for so that when Touch is released, I can make as smooth a transition from the old OS to touch as possible?
Consider the following Qt class:
#include <QScopedPointer>
class MyClassPrivate;
class MyClass
{
public:
MyClass();
~MyClass();
private:
QScopedPointer<MyClassPrivate> d_ptr;
Q_DECLARE_PRIVATE(MyClass)
}
This class resembles the structure of most Qt cla...
@NathanOsman hm, is that so people can follow their own code without switching, or maybe it is dyanimic or something... just what i was thinking at the moment(no real coding background)
@Seth - I'm a buy a Google Nexus guy on the Ubu-phone/Ubu-touch thing. It seems to be the most viable options from what I've read (and I'm looking at it as my next tech purchase)
As far as I know, that's why it was chosen. A boot-loader you can checkbox unlock (no rooting/jailbreaking required) and a good supply chain that won't expire.
@Mahesh I don't have time tonight, but if you want I may be able to help tomorrow afternoon. (starts new job tomorrow AM). Ping me with directions to replicate or something if that's a viable option
After installing, the driver works out fine (the proprietory driver). But when entering windows 7 and back to ubuntu again, the wireless driver doesn't work anymore. My wireless card is bcm4313. thanks~
I do have an Acer 5750G i7-2670QM laptop.
I had a dual-boot Win7/Ubuntu system which I recently turned into a triple-boot Ubuntu/win7/Hackintosh system (I also have an apple which I recently upgraded). The past year I have used Win7 only 3 times very briefly (It came installed with it). Every ti...
If it was up to me you would be able to do it 10 seconds after someone made the question >:-D
fossy!!!
here something off topic D: -> http://askubuntu.com/questions/279795/script-to-show-the-ip-and-mac-address and if not off topic it is too easy to find on the web :-\
@Rinzwind Agreed. Every once in a while some Q catches my eye and deserves some extra love. I'm hankering for some good answers here: askubuntu.com/questions/279705/…
@Rinzwind Well, yeah. me too. Tonight, I'm not feeling like an ass.
When I first found this site, I was a bit intimidated before I threw out my first answer. I am kinda astounded by folks who just toss off random questions here.
Taking snapshot of root partition will make possible to roll back to previous state. This is very helpful when something went wrong and/or data loss occurs. This feature can be seen in VirtualBox HDD and the persistence option in live CD. Unlike backup it uses incremental data usage thus less dat...
assuming you don't have a load of cruft on your main system (I have my media on a storage drive that's seperate from the main system), being able to make a bootable DVD that boots into your last backup and being able to restore to it is great
@maggotbrain It was a link to a spam answer. Now that the answer has disappeared, users who cannot view deleted posts just see the question. You're right that the question is not spam.
I kinda feel bad for constantly touching people's questions and editing such petty little nonsense like commas and capitalization. It feels like I'm being an attention whore.
In punctuation, a serial comma or series comma (also called Oxford comma and Harvard comma) is a comma placed immediately before the coordinating conjunction (usually and, or, or nor) in a series of three or more terms. For example, a list of three countries might be punctuated either as "Portugal, Spain, and France" (with the serial comma), or as "Portugal, Spain and France" (without the serial comma).
Opinions among writers and editors differ on whether to use the serial comma. In American English, a majority of style guides mandate use of the serial comma, including The Chicago Manua...
I almost always use the serial comma in my own writing. I would not change someone else's writing to use it, unless they usually used it and I was changing a minority of instances, such that my changes didn't introduce ambiguity.
Just wasted my time trying to understand what 'your question does not meet our quality standards'.
The error was that i did not put a capital at the beginning of each sentence.
I suggest to either remove this 'validation' or to give a better error message.
There really is no widely agreed-upon rule about whether or not the serial comma should be used. The only widespread agreement is that within a single work, it is best to follow the same convention throughout, except when a situation arises that calls for it to be broken.
@EliahKagan Well, considering all of the run on sentences that we get here, how would you propose to adhere to proper grammar while still respecting the OP's intentions? ;-P
@maggotbrain I'm not sure I understand the application of the serial comma controversy to that question. The serial comma (or absence thereof) is for comma-delimited lists. Run-on sentences are not usually lists.

Networking (using cut,grep command or awk and sed)
Write a script to print system IP address and MAC address only.
In Windows, you can run android application using BlueStack. I was wondering, is there any way these apps can be run on ubuntu 12.04!!
Should I put a comma before last item in list?
I would like crackers, cheese and some soda.
