Hey, I've used KDE for about three days and already tried experimenting to get used to it, as i've been a hopeless Windows user for my entire life... Shocking, I know :P

 

Now, anyway, my Firefox browser (like there is any other) crashed and I couldn't figure out how to kill it, so I used the "xkill" command, which worked great! However... I had Firefox minimized and thus clicked on the bottom "start-bar line" to remove it. Suddenly I was sitting there with only icons on my desktop and no startline! Firefox still running... well, sort of... ^^,

 

I got it back by restarting, but is there a way to "load" it again on the fly using the terminal?

 

Help will be very much appreciated!

 

On pre-hand; Thanks! (Not even sure pre-hand is a word... o.O)

try this to improve matters (as root)

 

Nine Months Later.

 

Jack decided to go skiing with his buddy Bob. They loaded up in Jack's minivan and headed north.

 

After driving for a few hours, they got caught in a terrible

blizzard.They pulled into a nearby farm and asked the attractive lady who answered the door if they could

spend the night. ;

 

"I realize it's terrible weather out there and I have this huge house all to myself,but I'm recently widowed,"

she explained."I'm afraid neighbours will talk if I let

you stay in my house."Don't worry," Jack said. "We'll be

happy to sleep in the barn. And if the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first light."

 

 

 

The lady agreed, and the two men found their way to the barn and settled in for the night.

 

Come morning, the weather had cleared, and they got on their way.

 

They enjoyed a great weekend of skiing.

 

 

About nine months later, Jack got an unexpected letter from an attorney.

 

It took him a few minutes to figure it out, but he finally determined that it was from the attorney of the

attractive widow he had met on the ski weekend.

 

 

He dropped in on his friend Bob and asked, "Bob, do you remember that good-looking widow from the farm

we stayed at on our ski holiday.

 

"Yes, I do." "Did you happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the house, and pay her a visit?

 

"Yes," Bob said, a little embarrassed about being found out.

 

"I have to admit that I did."

 

"And did you happen to use my name instead of telling her your name?"

 

Bob's face turned red and he said,"Yeah, sorry, buddy... I'm afraid I did.

 

Why do you ask?"

"She just died and left me everything."

Woo-Hoo!

 

After weeks of searching for the perfect mouse pad to replace the mistake of the "WowPad" I bought at Office Depot (Just say no to Wowpad), I decided upon the C4-NGen Medium mouse pad featured in Maximum PC Magazine.

 

I love this thing. So smooth, clean, and shiney with it's Teflon surface. I would recommend it to anybody, and if you want to get a feel for how smooth it is, just grab a cooking pan with Teflon and give it a whirl (you might feel kinda goofy, but you'll get the idea).

 



 



 



 

There aren't very many reviews about these things, probably because they're not all that popular, but for $13 I think I got the best mousepad for my money.

I would very much like to setup Ubuntu to try on my machine, but I don't totally want to ditch Suse just yet either (and I need my Windows partition as well for school programs like SPSS).

 

I'm not even sure what my current partitions look like because I don't know how to check. Is there a command to use to list the partition information? The commands fdisk and cfdisk aren't available.

 

I know this is probably a big project, but... help?

I want to backup my hard disk to another hard disk, how can I do it..?

I know we can make it using dd command, but I don't know how the syntax is.

I want to copy all the thing from my harddisk to another hard disk.

And if possible, including all the setting?

 

Anybody can help me..

 

thank you...

The credit for figuring out how to do this goes out to Scott from TheOpenSourceWeblog.

 

I had dugg this tutorial or "how to" a few weeks ago, and although there were only 9 diggs, I still figured it was a trick worth mentioning around here.

 

Quote:Coming from Windows myself, I used the "win key" or the "super" key heavily to get to the Start menu, but now after switching to Linux with the KDE desktop, I sure do miss that key. And I'm too lazy to press Alt+F1. This is a guide that will get that "win key" working in Linux again. Although it's a guide for KDE, it can work in GNOME as well.

I have seen people type that pwd is Print Working Directory but in both the

RHCE handbook and Novell's CLE handbook they say it stands for Present Working Directory.

Can somebody help me, how to find out the packages that been install to my computer(Linux).

Is there any command to do that..?
