There is no single point of advertisement of software for linux, just like there are none for windows or mac.

Yeah, it's essentially "versions". Kinda like in git.
It works only with local filesystems, so if you need network of whatever kind, you have to mount it first, like i do ;)
That helped to keep the...

Give this a try. I just backup whole home folder with it.

One day (That was when i could not restore my backup to another drive while booted from an USB stick) I got tired of duplicity quirks and decided that I can do better.

So here is Archivarius. It's...

Thnx!
Some ppl might actually prefer truth and raw facts, rather than hiding them behind pleasantries.

Did you actually launch gstreamer-properties and found out what the alsa device it is in your case? e.g. the hw:1,1 in mine case?

Hi!


The device works fine, out of the box in ubuntu 14.04, including the volume knob. Just for the record, if someone googles whether it is compatible with linux.
But i don't see the...

Agree. Except I wasn't using ativirus at all. Only once in two years i used to check the PC with the free Dr.Web CureIT tool.
The amount of viruses for the OS is just a side effect of it's...

You seem to be right. If you approach them with caustic comments at ubuntu forums, something may finally get fixed!

Thanks!

Wow they've fixed it! Wow indeed!


Well make a guess why does it look like that now. And why in my original post it is cited as:
$ sudo apt-get install dh-make
Any ideas, Sherlock?

From my experience reporting bugs never works in ubuntu. Already reported dozens of them. Not even one was fixed.
And if for some reason you can't keep up with quality, why not to make the guide...

Thanks, but that's not the point. I can help myself. I do know how to google and found a guide at debian wiki which actually is comprehensive and works!

I don't really get it. I have a source code, and would like to make a package from it. The official guide shows the way which does not work.
Is there any other guide, how to do that on ubuntu? what...

According to the guide, the lines

Can you recommend any tools like windows ProcessMonitor, or some other linux analogue?

Hi!

I am completely new to linux and linux programming.
I am writing a program, which needs access to cpuid and msr instructions. As far as i uderstand, it is done through the /dev/cpu/[N]/cpuid...

the problem is, sometimes i run them from console. and maybe would want to batch them further. so i don't like the solution of hitting enter all the time :)

Indeed. It works. I thought this option is only about "edit" or "run". But in reality it has the "run in terminal option"
Thanks for info!

The main problem is, when i run a script, i dont see it's console output, since terminal does not open automatcally.
I've solved it combining your "non elegant solution" with nautilus scripts. Added...

Hi!

I am trying to make a script run, when i click on it in nautilus (the default file manager), in a new console window, so i can see the output. After some googling, I've put this line in the...
