Here’s my pumpkin from last year. I want to do something similar this year, but it’s still in the planning stage. I’ll let you guys know when my pumpkin goes Alpha!
I should point out that I’m leaning towards a Gentoo or Ubuntu pumpkin this year. You will certainly see the final result right here when it’s finished!
The next time you are writing up an HTML form, think twice before making the form fields align to the right or left of their labels. This can make a difference in how easy it is for your user to fill out the form. Here’s a great visualization that explains:
The first thing that you’ll want to do is go to the Wine Config and set Windows 2000 as the default app.
Next, enter the following into the command line:
wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks
Then enter:
sh winetricks corefonts dotnet20
And finally:
sh winetricks fakeie6

Free is an amazing word! I decided to compile a list of 100+ of the very best free apps for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Not all of the free apps listed work on all platforms…so make sure to look into it on your own. This list is broken down into 11 pages. Each page accounts for a software category. Feel free to leave additional free apps that you like in the comments!

My friend Mike asked me to install Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx as a dual boot with Win7 on his brand new desktop PC. The PC has an Intel i5 processor with integrated Intel HD Graphics. During the installation, the flicker/shaking of the graphics on screen was so extreme that I couldn’t read most of the text during the install. I’m glad I’ve done about a million and a half Ubuntu installs, so I knew my way around pretty well. I figured that once the install was complete and we rebooted, the problem would go away.
Well, the problem didn’t go away. I started searching for other users having the same problem and came across many who complained about the screen flickering randomly or occasionally. Well, that wasn’t the problem I was having. My flicker/shake was constant. It was also much more noticeable on the right side of the screen than the left side.
I will note that the problem doesn’t occur in Win7, so it’s not a hardware problem.
I have posted my question on UbuntuForums.org and now I must wait for a response. In the meantime, I will continue trying to solve the problem myself.
