Recently My PC become slower and slower, and I decided to format it. One thing come in my mind, why not I install something else? How about a Mac(fake) in my PC?

According to wikipedia : CrunchBang has been reported to boot faster than Ubuntu [ 6 ] while still including a larger number of applications by default than a standard Ubuntu installation. It operates better under low resources than Ubuntu and is faster than a normal GNOME-based Ubuntu distribution. [ 4 ] By default it comes with a minimal panel and system information pane on the right side of the screen and nothing more. [ 7 ] CrunchBang Linux has been developed completely from Ubuntu sources with the exception of a few packages. [ 4 ] Unlike Ubuntu, CrunchBang includes several non-free or patent encumbered applications and libraries such as out-of-the-box support for several multimedia formats including MP3 , Adobe Flash as well as DVD playback. CrunchBang also replaces some applications that are included with default Ubuntu, such as: [ 4 ] Openbox Window Manager instead of the GNOME Desktop Environment ROX-Filer and Thunar (replaced by PCMan File Manager in CrunchBang 8....

As per title, look for free ebook? click this link For price $139 = Rm450, I will buy for one if available in Malaysia. Any way to ship it to Malaysia?? The Iriver book reader in lowyat (RM1.2k) is just too expensive for me, I will rather get an Ipad with another RM 800.

This is another problem discovered after I Clear my too much clever auto Saved session in Ubuntu , This problem is simple but effective (bringing in troubles) - It lock your keyboard and partially (sometimes) mouse unusable, it happen randomly. But i found it's pattern, it mostly happen with chrome 6 stable + flash . Anyone have the same problem with me? I'm not sure I was customizing too much; I just install compiz + compiz extra tools + compiz fusion to enable some Expose alike feature in it. Lets give is a try whether this help to fix the problem To reset it, follow the steps below: Open your user home folder (/home/username) Delete the following folder (if any) , These folders are hidden, type ctrl+H to show or via menu bar>view>show hidden files .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity (the following I just copied from Resetting Gnome's Settings in Ubuntu , I'm lazy to type my own) If you don’t have access to your...

I'm a Firefox fan just like others, recently my firefox performance getting slower and slower, you must be saying I have tons of addons installed in it, yes I admit I installed some, but not more than 20 which I really have to use, such as noscript, adblock plus, Flashgot, flash block..etc... Which I think if you do not install them, you better remain in IE. Today with 20 tabs opened in a single window, the firefox become ram killer :( , It consume almost 1/3 of my windows Ram = 1GB. This is totally crazy and unacceptable with only 20 tabs open. Here is the screenshot: While Firefox adding more and more feature in every version, Its getting old, overstaffed and slow. Google chrome is fast and attractive, however as a firefox fan, I still put firefox as my first choice unless there is killer feature from google chrome other than fast startup. Just hope that Firefox 4 will be better.

Ubuntu (Lucid) have a very cool feature - The Remember Currently Running Application option . the option name itself almost explain everything : save your currently working setting in Ubuntu. Whatever you did to your desktop will be remember (except some like terminal will be restarted) such as opened folder, opened website, in-progress word editing...etc... However the experience starting to go bad when Ubuntu startup become slow, and throw error such a "Media/MyExternalHDD" not found. Sometime when compiz gone wild and its "wild" mode being save as session as well, thats it, stuck with the problem such as title bar missing (solved by Open terminal and run command 'metacity --replace'). Finally I get fed up and decided to remove it by un-check the "Automatically remember running applications when logging out session". Guess what, It stop saving the new session but remembered its damn old session. After some googling, its quite simple ...

Its been a long time since my last update to my blogspot (except yesterday ofcourse), while toying with the setting , I wondering how to link my post to my facebook. After some googling, there is one very simple solution: www.twitterfeed.com Just login using your OpenID OR create an account if you want, in my case I just loggin using my google account. Here how it goes , Click on Create a new feed button, insert your RSS link to the RSS feed url field, and proceed to step 2. In step 2 what you do is just click on the service you want to apply (FB and twitter for me ), authenticate and that is. Its done. Give it at try.
