In some text editors (e.g. Kate, gedit), when auto indent is enabled, pressing return twice will leave a trailing whitespace (which I want):
if (code) {
....
....|
}
While others cater to the coding standard where trailing spaces (even in blank lines) aren't allowed:
if (code) {
....|
}
What annoys me about this is that if I arrow up after…
I currently have an email address, me@domain.com, that I currently use to forward to a gmail account that I've used for years. I currently have it set, so I can send email from my me@domain.com instead of old_user_name@gmail.com.
This is done through the web ui on my current domain name, provider, gandi.net.
What are the main differences…

I'm testing reposman.rb on the command-line (before I make it a cron job):
/usr/sbin/reposman.rb --svn-dir=/var/svn \
--redmine-host=http://example.com/projects --key='redacted' \
--owner='nobody' --group='nobody'
It succeeded, printing messages for projects that didn't have repos yet:

I recently bought a 16GB Super Talent pen drive that seems to work well for running the Ubuntu Live "CD" in persistent mode (see this for how I installed it). One slightly annoying thing, however, is that this pen drive has a bright red light on it that stays on when it's idle.
Is there a way to make the light stay off at least…
Hi there,
I have a few domains with Dreamhost where I have set a load of records using their web based domain name system, and I've like to move them to another provider that lets me enter info directly as a text file for their name server, bind 9 to use. (If you're interested, I'm moving them to Gandi.net).
Previously when I…
Lets say I have a domain that I run a web app on, for example cranketywidgets.com, and I'm using google apps for handle email for people work work on that domain, i.e. support@ cranketywidgets.com, jane@cranketywidgets.com, joe@cranketywidgets.com and so on.
Google's own mail services aren't always the best for sending…
Because my wireless router's ethernet ports are defective, I set up a shared wireless connection from my laptop (which has wifi) to my eMac (which does not) via a crossover ethernet cable. The laptop is behind a router as 192.168.1.131, and the eMac is behind the laptop as 10.42.43.1 .
The laptop is running Ubuntu…
I have 2 Linksys WRT54GL routers flashed with DD-WRT. On each I have a different ISP, and thus a different private network. I would like to be able to talk to either network regardless of what network I am on.
Example:
ISP1 - Router1 - Client
ISP2 - Router2 - Client
What I would like to do is something like:

I'm on Fedora 14, and OpenOffice 3.3.0 takes a long time to open (about 30 seconds, sometimes less). It isn't a CPU or disk performance issue, it's just simply a very long delay before the program opens. It appears to be a frivolous network connection timing out.
According to Wireshark, it tries to look up:

Hi there, I'm trying to consolidate domain names for the servers I look after to just use one panel instead of 3 or 4, and one thing stopping me is that the provider I originally wanted to move them to only lets me the following kinds of records:
A
MX
NS
CNAME
TXT
The first four I understand, but I'm not…
Among my several years of running servers there seems to be a pattern with most spam activity. My question/idea is that is there a way to tell Apache to run a script when POST data is detected?
What I would want to do is perform a reverse DNS lookup on the client's IP address, and then perform a DNS lookup…

I'm used to using various flags to modify the results of Google searches, to only show results from a particular site, or only certain kinds of files.
For example you can restrict Spotlight searches to only look for pdf files like this example, when I'm looking for a pdf cheatsheet for using YUI's grid…
I am looking to develop a solution that eliminates potential spammers. The way this system will work is that it will watch connections and requests. Going into the specifics is more for stackoverflow, But, what I am interested in is if it is possible to tell Apache to pass the request over to my…
Does anyone know if the HP Workstation xw4100 takes a "special" power supply?
I know there was a time when everyone was using their own PSs with different pinouts, but I was under the impression that enough people complained and all the companies switched to standard power supplies.
Hi there,
I'm planning to migrate a Zimbra server with about 200gb of data from a server hosted in an office into a datacentre, to increase uptime (we've had a couple of outages when our network here started flaking out, and we have people in other countries relying on this server too).

How can I password protect an IIS directory when I only have FTP access to the server? I can't adjust any IIS settings or add users or anything like that.
The answer to:
IIS Basic Authorization ala .htaccess/.htpasswd in apache
does not help as I only have access to the server via…
The server allocated for our cross platform projects (both Mac & PC) source repository is running Win2008R2 Core. We're really happy with its stability and we aren't interested in moving over to non-core. We need to get either SVN or GIT installed on the aforementioned box in the…
I have Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit installed on a Dell Latitude XT Tablet and for the life of me I can't figure out this really weird problem.
The symptom is that the Wireless will disconnect from the AP and if I tell it to scan again, it says there are no APs in the area. I do have…
A few weeks ago, I did a Google Images search for keyboard finger charts to see which fingers I'm supposed to be using to type which keys. According to the charts, '6' is supposed to be typed with the right hand:

However, today I…

I'm a Joomla newbie, and I'm trying to set up a site to require login access to certain articles. Simply setting the article's Access Level to Restricted makes it disappear rather than prompting for a login. I can't figure out how to make a login page because I can't find…
On a Windows 7, the working set memory usage plus private memory does not add up to the total used memory in Task Manager and Windows 7 Resource Monitor.
How do you find out where the used memory is coming from?
The cached memory can't be part of it because sometimes the…
