The example above displays a small one line text box window, much like a search box. Typing in this box then clicking 'OK' will open Google Search in a web browser.
Currently it's using Firefox as the web browser, but you could change 'firefox'
to 'chromium' or any other web browser you'd prefer.
The more I write code and design systems, the more I understand that many times, you can achieve the desired functionality simply with clever reconfigurations of the basic Unix tool set.
apt-get dist-upgrade: This will upgrade the packages that have newer versions available, and install any new dependencies which are required to do that.
There are several different methods to activate support for an external monitor: as a BIOS option or during runtime with a keystroke e.g. <Fn>+<F4>. Maybe you have to edit /etc/XF86Config by configuring int_disp and ext_disp.
Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) comes with a Debian base, which we transformed into a live media and on top of which we added a new installer. It’s rougher and in some aspects not as user-friendly as our other editions, it’s very young but it will improve continuously and rapidly, and it brings us one step closer to a situation where we’re fully in control of the system without being impacted by upstream decisions.
Learning to program is like learning to write good natural language. The best way to do it is to read some stuff written by masters of the form, write some things yourself, read a lot more, write a little more, read a lot more, write some more ... and repeat until your writing begins to develop the kind of strength and economy you see in your models.
A no-frills personal document management system can come in handy in many situations. Read on to find out how OpenOffice.org Base can really come into its own…
when setting up WordPress on a remote system I need to be able to get the tarball with the latest release on the server. It seems silly to copy it to my desktop and then use scp to upload it to the server. That's twice the time (at least). Instead, I use wget to grab the tarball while I'm SSH'ed into the server and save myself a few minutes.
Finally, wget is scriptable. If you want to scrape a Web site or download a file every day at a certain time, you can use wget as part of a script that you call from a cron job.
The first thing to do is to start the ClamVA demon by typing clamd --- After a few moments, control of the command line should return to the user. The next thing we need to do is to update the ClamVA virus database. Use this command: freshclam --- The next stage is to mount the NTFS partition that contains the suspect files. Before we can do that though, we have to figure out how Linux has named the Windows partition. Do this by running GParted via the application launcher.
This is a very simple method to making photographs grungy, but its also a good technique to have handy in your mind for any post-processing you might do in the future!
