comment Flash video appears blue
vdpau means Video Decode and Presentation API for Unix, which is the library used for offloading video decoding to the gpu. Without it, video will be decoded in software on the main processor.

comment Equivalent of Ctrl-a Ctrl-a in byobu (switching windows)
It enables the usual screen keyboard commands so ctrl-a twice works (as opposed to ctrl-a for start of line).

comment Prevent nautilus showing partition mounted in bash script
The alternative of blacklisting the partition with udisk(see papashous link) require sudo and is not portable across machines, so it would be even more complex and risky.

comment Why is Ubuntu using so much memory?
When actual memory usage (without any cache) reaches 100%, least used parts of the memory will first be written to the swap partition. This will make the system significantly slower, but you will not loose any data. If you fill the swap as well (or just don't have any), the kernel will start killing processes until enough memory is freed.
