  1. OT - Ubuntu Feisty Logs me off automatically on Beryl User Interface for Linux Reviewed · · Score: 1

    I know this is OT but google didn't help me on this. I recently upgraded my desktop to Ubuntu Feisty. Now, whenever the desktop is idle for a while, it automatically logs me off. Has anyone else come across the problem??

    I've asked this question before....

    Of course, a good, democratic government is the ideal, but if that's not an option, I'd choose the good dictatorship personally

    Dude!! This is slashdot. You don't apologise here. Instead, you should flame and ask the guy to STFU.

  8. Re:Luckily our government protects us from this on Stem Cells Derived from Human Clones · · Score: 1

    But don't ask people who are firmly opposed to such research to help pay for it.

    However it is perfectly OK to use federal money to fund a war that many americans were opposed to.

  18. Re:acroread bug? on Mozilla 1.7 Released · · Score: 1

    Funny thing is, I've been using Mozilla all this while and never noticed it. Yesterday I installed Firefox 0.9 and everytime I'd view a pdf file, X would suck up 90% of the CPU.
    In mozilla, this may have been a problem but was definitely not as perceptible as it is in Firefox.

  19. Re:acroread bug? on Mozilla 1.7 Released · · Score: 2

    The pdf plugin for Firefox completely sucks up CPU cycles. Everytime I view a pdf file using Firefox, X slows down to a crawl.
    Has anyone else noticed this problem??
