@susie smith: Your comment borders on incoherent however I decided to approve it just so as not to be accused of censoring. What exactly is it that “dudes like me really f _ _ k up?”

I would recommend that you consider forming coherent statements (hint: have a coherent thought first) in the future and if I were you I would also try and limit your comments to one or less uses or the word “dude”. Makes you sound ignorant. Also using “Late” is pretty lame.

“Next, attempt to compare the directories. This is done by going to the Mark menu and selecting Compare Directories. At this point, nothing seems to happen.”

I had the same problem. Starting gnome-commander in a terminal and looking at the shell output revealed that the graphical comparison tool “meld” was missing. After installing it everything has been working nicely so far. It’s a bit odd though, that gnome-commander doesn’t give an error message when meld is missing.

Very Nice, I love black on white, 1500 years of codices can’t be wrong!

One thing I like about Iceweasel is that there is an option “View > Page Styles > No Style” that allows me to remove garish style from People’s websites leaving a nice black text on white background.

Try setting the ignore-level in /etc/logcheck/logcheck.conf to “workstation”. /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.workstation has rules for gconf.

Nice article i just learned how to access the network via Krusader.
I’m liking it more and more.
Here are 2 things that I couldn’t find in Gnome commander.
1. Krusader has a shell at the bottom
2. It has tabs that remember all you locations next time you start it.

Comment on How to get 32 bit packages installed in 64 bit ubuntu by Michael

I installed the i386 version of Opera with –force-architecture, and it installed, but I can’t run it.

I’d like to be able to either use it or uninstall it, but I don’t know how to do either.
