Me, I use Chromium for using social media sites or Google services
that I want to log-in to. Google+, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn. I
don't use it for anything else.
I use Firefox for everything else. I am not logged into any of those
services in Firefox. I use RequestPolicy to block all
emerge smartmontools
then when that is done, do this:
smartctl -t long /dev/sddrive letter here
When you do that, it should print a message that tells when the test will
complete. It is usually a 24 hour format thing too. This can run while the
drive is in use too. Sometime after that
Merry Christmas gentooers!

I googled how to disable the gnome-shell and get my gnome-panel back,
along with the panel applets that I refuse to give up. (The gnome-
shell replaces the gnome-panel, so there is nowhere to run the old

If you want to disable gnome-shell you can do it with the System Info
One more question. What is a easy to install but WELL tested and STABLE
binary distro? I'm thinking something that needs a update 2 or 3 times a
year or something.
If you want a *really* well tested and *really* stable linux binary
distro, Debian stable is your friend :D
I have a debian
I'll be interested in hearing how that goes. I had one weekend running
Ubuntu and ended up running away as fast as I could. It wasn't that it
was bad or didn't work, but that the management of it seemed so
different from any distro I'd run before that I didn't want to deal
with learning it.
Then you must be using a single-user machine. Like your own laptop or
desktop.
sudo is absolutely necessary on any multi-user machine unless you like
security holes.
Instead of bashing sudo, it's better to find out what problem it is
designed to solve, then determine if you have that
So, what is a easy to install distro that has
KDE4, Seamonkey, gtkam, GIMP and such? I want something easy
Well, surely Kubuntu would be a nice choice, but can I suggest
OpenSuse? I installed it something like two years ago (I was curious)
and I liked it. It has a well-done KDE implementation.

So, if you see things like this in your log file, rescue data real soon.
Make a note of this since this could happen on your rig one day.
Thanks, Dale. Actually I've
Thanks, Dale. Actually I've never experienced an hard drive failure,
but your thread made me want to do one as soon as possible :D
Sorry, I meant made me want to do a backup as soon as possible
i realized just now that no one has commented on the news of the recent
death of dennis ritchie. considering that his contributions to the
development of computational technologies were not only paramount, but
affect all of us in a very direct way, i think we could somehow compensate
