May 9	comment	Can't mount SD-cards in ubuntu, in windows on same machine works fine Okay, try this: Use Windows to back up all the files, then use Gparted to format the card: `sudo apt-get install gparted`, then open your SD Card in GParted (it's probably going to be `/dev/sdb`,) go to `Device`>`Create Partition Table`, make an `msdos` table, then create a new `fat32` partition in all the free space. Whatever utility formatted the card in the first place (e.g., the Manufacturer, your Camera, You, etc.,) messed up the partition table. Fortunately, GParted is powerful enough to read+format any drive, no matter how corrupted it is (barring physical damage, of course... ;)

May 2	comment	Wireless is unusably unstable with my D-Link DWA-160 Wi-Fi adapter! Uugh, when this Wi-Fi adapter either dies or gets replaced, I'm going to dig it a deep grave.. near the septic tank. Then I will dance on its grave.

May 2	revised	Why can't Ubuntu access my Raspberry Pi across LAN? Update #2 - LAN Auth FAILS. AAAAUGH!
Apr 28	comment	Why does Transmission report port as “closed”? @jokerdino I've always wondered: If the Captchas help digitize old books, how do they verify that the answer to the captcha was correct? Or do they only check the one that they already know the answer to, and just trust the user on the actual scanned-in word?
Apr 28	comment	Why does Transmission report port as “closed”? Biggest "wat" moment of my life: When I was typing the Captcha for this question, I had a typo - the second word was supposed to be "layurt", but I typed "payurt" AND IT POSTED ANYWAY!

Apr 27	comment	Why can't Ubuntu access my Raspberry Pi across LAN? @AndrejsCainikovs pastebin.com/NmKenVpD Line 18 makes mt think that my firewall isn't the issue, though.
Apr 27	comment	Why can't Ubuntu access my Raspberry Pi across LAN? Yes, it's connected to the router perfectly.
Apr 26	comment	Firefox “clone” for Ubuntu @cipricus Umm, I use both Firefox Nightly and the "normal" build side-by-side, and I can tell you, as a fact, that, unless you've intentionally merged the config directories, they're going to have separate profiles. If you run `ls ~.mozilla`, you'll see that `firefox` and `firefox-trunk` are different directories.
Apr 26	comment	Why can't Ubuntu access my Raspberry Pi across LAN? @AndrejsCainikovs I'll be very happy to oblige with any logfiles needed. Just tell me what you need, and I'll Pastebin it and post it here. As of now, the output of `ssh -vvv pi@192.168.2.128` is exactly as appears here: pastebin.com/Nc1W8Mja
Apr 23	comment	Why can't Ubuntu access my Raspberry Pi across LAN? @MeerBorg I'm already a user there, and I actually considered asking this there, BUT Ubuntu is the only one having issues connecting. If I couldn't connect via any method, I'd suspect an issue with the Pi itself, but since Ubuntu is the odd one out here, I made the decision to ask it on this site.
Apr 23	revised	Why can't Ubuntu access my Raspberry Pi across LAN? HTTP(S) connections are also not available locally, BUT I noticed that Ubuntu can connect to my external IP.
