Dvgrab — Capture DV or MPEG-2 Transport Stream (HDV) video and audio. Howto: Get Network Manager to stop asking you for your keyring password (pam_keyring) - Page 7. Automatically Unlocking the Default Gnome-Keyring : PAM. If you've enjoyed this blog, please consider picking up a copy of my Ubuntu book, Instant Ubuntu. Thanks for visiting! This post is in part an update to my previous post on resetting the gnome keyring, and partly due to my continued laziness, efficiency push. I want my machine to do everything for me anymore. The less tedious work I have to do the more actual work I can get done, right? This post will walk you through setting up your machine to auto-authenticate the gnome-keyring at login.
Installing the Package We’ll need one tiny package for this to be supported. Sudo aptitude install libpam-keyring Configuring PAM Once this is installed we need to add a few lines to a configuration file. Edit the /etc/pam.d/gdm file and append the following line to the end of the file: @include common-pamkeyring At this point the gnome-keyring will be handed your login password and, if they are the same, will be authenticated at login. How to stop the blinking wifi LED on Ubuntu laptops with Intel wireless cards » Alex Cabal. Apparently Intel has decided that people using Ubuntu (and Linux in general) on laptops with an Intel wireless card simply must know when data is being transferred over the connection. To that end, Intel wifi cards constantly blink the LED whenever data is being transferred. I think every other wireless card on the planet just has a solid LED light to indicate the wireless is on (or off, using the physical switch), but not Intel cards.
Personally I find the constantly blinking lights pretty annoying. There’s no easy-to-find setting to change the LED to always-on. Create a new file using Nano:sudo nano /etc/network/if-up.d/wifi-led-noblinkPaste the following into your new file using ctrl + shift + v Press ctrl + x to quit Nano, then y to save your script.Make the script executable:sudo chmod u+x /etc/network/if-up.d/wifi-led-noblink That’s it! 2010-07-21 Update! As of kernel 2.6.34 this solution no longer works for me. Restart your laptop after running that command.
Crossover. Subversion. Thinkpad TrackPoint TrackPad Mouse Speed & Sensitivity Linux. How to adjust the Thinkpad TrackPoint Speed (Acceleration), & Sensitivity in Linux I run Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) Linux on my Lenovo Thinkpad T60. I prefer to use the TrackPoint (Little Red Dot) instead of an external mouse. The default speed and sensitivity settings in Ubuntu were way two slow. It was so bad, my finger was hurting. I set both Acceleration and Sensitivity to the highest setting using System > Preferences > Mouse, but it did nothing. The Speed and Sensitivity configuration is located in two files named speed and sensitivity respectively.

View my hardware [Archive] Ubuntu Forums > The Ubuntu Forum Community > Forum Archive > Absolute Beginner Talk > view my hardware this may seem a silly and unusual question but is there any way to view the hardware within a machine like you do in device manager within windows? Im trying to get a machine working and I dont know what a few devices are (ethernet port/sound chip/tv card etc. Its a sealed laptop unit so I cant just open the thing up and look at it. I want to dual boot it with windows but I havent a clue what drivers I will need. Ubuntu, running through the live CD obviously picks everything up as I have sound in it, I can get on the net etc so I know everything works....what I want to know is what are th devices that are in my PC???
(such as rockwell 56k internal v.90 for instance) Ive looked at the system>prefrences>hardware information but its all jargon. The "lspci" command is helpful. System>Preferences>Hardware Information.
