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.

Apr 22	comment	ubuntu 12.10 not updating Hey... another good DNS provider is Google's DNS - they don't screw up `nxdomain` like OpenDNS does. Primary server is `8.8.8.8` secondary `8.8.4.4`.

Apr 6	revised	Why “sudo apt-get install” doesn't find a package? Grammar, spelling, formatting - you name it, I fixed it.
Apr 6	comment	Why “sudo apt-get install” doesn't find a package? Please don't say "newest", as this can change over time. The newest LTS release is 12.04 Precise Pangolin(which I use.) The latest Public release is 12.10 Quantal Quetzal. The latest latest release (as of time of writing) is the 13.04 Raring Ringtal beta. So please edit the proper version into your question. (there is an `edit` link right above this comment, just to the right of "share".)
