I just got a new laptop, installed Windows and VMWare on it, and then installed Ubuntu as a virtual machine. It worked like a charm, but when I was going to login, the keyboard didn’t work… After googling a bit, I came across this: http://connec…
CCP/Eve Online og relasjon til kundene sine
Jeg spiller litt Eve Online fra tid til annen – det er et fascinerende spill på mange måter. For de som ikke vet hva Eve Online er, så er det et MMO satt i rommet, og det er vanvittig mye mer realistisk enn mange andre spill. Det legger stor vekt …

Default sort order in Thunderbird
If you are like me, you like the newest mail on top. The default in Thunderbird is to sort the mailboxes by date in ascending order. This is just stupid, it makes the newest mail go on the bottom, and on top of that, it will put mail sent by someo…

When you press the power on/off-button, a quick-menu appears. It has poweroff, but not reboot. This can be easily fixed: 1) Open /etc/systemui/systemui.xml in your favourite editor 2) Move the comment over the line with “Reboot” down a few lines b…
