Re: hebrew (or arabic) transparency to call up when i forget key location?
never occurred to me that it might be built-in: the menu that lets me select layouts also includes a layout map! perhaps not quite as convenient as a hot key, but perhaps that's better, as it will encourage me to memorize the keyboard. thanks for the tip!

Though it may also be meant as a touch-screen feature allowing for easy super+[key] combinations where super is the only key on the touchscreen device, in which case it will only show English. Regards, Eliyahu - אליהו 2012/12/30 Michael Shiloh michaelshiloh1...@gmail.com: i just found a nice feature in Unity (new to me at least): press and hold the special key for a semi-transparent overview of keyboard shortcuts, great for jogging the memory. such a transparency of the hebrew (and arabic) keyboard would help me learn to type in hebrew, as i have only english letters on my keycaps. does such a thing exist? if not, i'd like to make my own: hopefully i can find one already in source form and give it the correct properties, then figure out how to bind a key to display it. any thoughts appreciated. ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
Re: SSD drives
Hi, (Second bricked SSD in 12 months) A *very* short power shortage crept under my APC UPS and bricked the SSD. I wonder: did bricked SSD problem happened to anyone else reading this message? And a question: I don't know much about UPS and electricity, but would a protector like the following avoid the problem? Or is the protector functionality is embedded in the UPS? http://www.zap.co.il/search.aspx?keyword=GPT%20protector rgs DS On Mon, Dec 31, 2012 at 9:27 AM, Gilboa Davara gilb...@gmail.com wrote: A *very* short power shortage crept under my APC UPS and bricked the SSD. ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il

Re: SSD drives
A good SSD must have enough capacitors/super-caps to protect itself from such events, did you try to check with the vendor support?
