Insanity Rediscovered

Ubuntu lacks a startup application folder which enables you to add an application link which would start up automatically on login. Instead you can run this command to add your preferred applications:
gnome-session-properties
It is also available from System > Preferences > Sessions (It is on mine!).

There were initial issues and people were recommending waiting for Pidgin to get included in the official repositories…
However, the version I found here works perfectly on Ubuntu. It installs along with Gaim and imports all the required settings.

Looks neat.

Automatix works of course. But this is supposed to be the official guide!

For the zillionth time today I faced problem accessible Ubuntu servers while using Synaptics.
Especially these two servers:

US.ARCHIVE.UBUNTU.COM
ARCHIVE.UBUNTU.COM

So, I have finally received my ‘free’ Ubuntu CDs. The CDs came along with four stickers. One of which is definitely going on my Car. I hope it brings my car some good karma. The rattling is becoming unbearable!
