Comment on Do Nothing on Lid Close – Ubuntu by TW

TW — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 00:20:24 +0000

Just what I was looking for as I am using my laptop as XBMC htpc connected to a LCD TV, but I have some trouble with this.

I am running Linux Mint 11 and have changed the gconf-editor lid_ac to “nothing” and restarted but in my Power Management the action is still “Blank screen” and that is unfortunately what closing the lid still does. It blanks both laptop and TV screens, I am only interested in the laptop screen is shut off.

Hope you have a solution here.

Comment on wget: background download by Andrew

Actually, everything has a background option of sorts…

nohup

It, too, decouples the process from the terminal, and (technically) forces the program to not listen to the hangup signal that is sent when the respective terminal/SSH session ends. For me, nohup was critical for streaming music over icecast.

This may work for you, Arrays.deepToString, but it would be just as easy to double foreach loop over the array.

The only problem I am having now is how to print the 2D resultant array we get. When I just try to print the resultant array I get a string of letters, numbers, and symbols.

Hi, I have warnings massages after installing dwl-g510 at Windows XP. I’ve got new drive now. Small question: do I need to remove dwl-g510 from computer before starting drive update (installation)?
Cheers

Dude, thanks for your great post! I really needed 5.3 to use DateTime::diff() and now everything is working fine.

As Matthew so accurately discussed, The Touchpad ships at 1.2 GHz but it feels more responsive in WebOs and Android ICS at 1.5 GHz. It’s also pretty crappily built and I’d be mad if if I had actually paid retail price for it.

Comment on Galaxy Tab Wifi Spring 2011 Hardware Review by Rowena Shipler

Someone is selling the 7″ Samsung Galaxy Tab Sprint version. I don’t want any 3g plans, and just want to surf the wifi. If I get the Sprint version, will I have to sign up for a plan or will just the wifi work? A link with proof would be nice.

Comment on PHP 5.3 – Not on 1and1 Yet by Flo

I want to install a CalDav Plugin for my webmailer and thus need PHP 5.3. Stuck with 5.2.17 though. I’m usually quite content with 1und1, but lately I asked myself why I pay a good amount more when they can’t offer up-to-date service …

Cheers Flo

Greats Phil
