@nixscripter: I know, but that's not really a solution.. especially in Handbrake and similar applications, it of course helps to have it at maximum.

@artemyv: that's not the problem, when it...

@nixscripter: yes, I do -- this is why it only shuts down when CPU intensive tasks are done since the CPU is scaled up.

@RJARRRPCGP: yes, it actually runs really fast (as far as I can tell from...

Hi, I have an HP pavilion dv6 1280us laptop with an AMD Turion X2 Ultra 64 bit processor and an ATI radeon graphics card.

The laptop is seriously overheating in ubuntu when the CPU is at 100%...

Another one, nobody here knows?
I would really need this...

Please help.

Well, bump.

Hi all, I have a few questions about GtkEntryCompletion
(http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/GtkEntryCompletion.html)

I already implemented it in my application, but I would need some...

Bump, any ideas?

sudo apt-get install geany

C : harder to learn than Python but it is more powerful and faster than Python since it's compiled and low-level compared to python and therefore you'll understand how the computer works more than if...

It depends on your definition of simple : you could use LTOOLS or something similar, but it is usually slow, and mainly it doesn't recognize larger number of inodes so unless you reformat your ext3...

More detail would help, I would maybe record what it says in linux about the network when you connect (ifconfig) and then when you reboot, check the details about the connection before fixing, see if...

Hi all,
I have a pretty simple but annoying problem:
it includes 2 machines : one is a laptop with ArchLinux (up to date), the other is Ubuntu (also up to date).

Because the laptop with Ubuntu...

Thanks a lot! I will study both the options and see what's better for me :) A microcontroller would be really cool but when I checked the links I saw that it's pretty expensive compared to the PS/2...

I would choose the first one. By the way the second one looks a little wrong, you would rather want to create a pointer, then malloc it, and then return it.

Thanks for replying but I don't want a thin client or dumb terminal... my goal with this is to create something that will be able to for example brute force a BIOS password in case you'll forget it -...

Thanks all for replies, I now also realized that USB would be hard because using a simple cable, the voltage would probably be too high.


This looks promising, could you please give more details...

Thanks for the reply, but this won't help me... I need it done in hardware, so that one of the computers acts as a simulated keyboard, and the second recognizes the other just as a normal keyboard......

For using "my" method, you probably have to right click the download now button and then click "save target as".

+1 to clive however, I didn't know about it :)

Hi, I have been bothering with this thing and still don't have any answer...

So this is my question:

Let's say we have 2 computers connected with each other via USB. How to make a program that...

1) Copy video URL address
2) go to http://houbysoft.com/youtube
3) Paste the address into the box and download the video
4) Play it (it's a FLV file, you can play it for example in mplayer, VLC...)

See if you have gtk-config but it isn't in your path:


which gtk-config
. If it returns something then add its dir to your path or just do a


sudo apt-get install gtk-dev
or something like...

Make sure you have the right drivers and the right configuration in Ubuntu, mainly the ESSID. You can find this information in Win since you say it's working fine.

I also think that Linux host/Windows guest is better because Linux is more secure than windows - so you can trust it and use as the host OS.

Yes, first try to restart it.
If it doesn't work, which would be my guess, install the b43 driver : http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43.

Yeah but anyway I guess he would not choose a 20 char long password :) my guess would be a just regular chars and like 5-10 chars long. That would not take so long :)
