During a migration or other custom setup, it's possible you don't have a $HOME/Desktop and as a result the config file that controls this is set to just use your $HOME directory.
This is controlled in the file: $HOME/.config/user-dirs.dirs
As we can see below, Desktop, Downloads, Music and Pictures are set to $HOME. We can edit any of these as we like.

Bonding is an excellent way to get both increased redundancy and throughput. It is similar to the "Network Teaming" feature in Windows.
There are a few different modes but we will use mode 6, I think it's the best of both worlds, as it is not just a failover, but it provides round robin, so you will get redundancy and load balancing. So if you have a 1G single port, you will have a combined throughput of 4G at this point. Just bear in mind that the true thr........

Just a quick note and warning is that if you are testing to see if EFIPXE booting works on a VM, MAKE SURE it actually works. For example Iinitially tested using my Distro's QEMU 2.5+dfsg-5ubuntu10.46 and ovmf BIOS firmware (OVMF supports EFI). However, I found on old versions of QEMU (like 2.5), EFIbooting with GRUB NEVER works so it may appear that you have made a mistake when everything is fine when you boot a physi........
Normally an ls will just produce the actual contents of the current or target directory eg.
ls mydir
myfile1
myfile2
myfile3
But what if you need to find the full or relative path to another program that cares whether that be zip or etc.?
You need the "-d" switch and the asterisk inside the actual directory.
ls -d mydir/*
mydir/myfil........
For themes and custom CMS setups, the typical HTML theme is not ready to go at all but here are some common sed commands (search and replace that will get most of them working without breaking as you'd expect).
The problem is that often the theme directory will be separate from the content and this will break the relative paths that these themes use.
sed -i s/'href="'/'href="/themes/yourtheme/'/g index.html
sed -i s/'src="'/'src="/themes/y........
I find it very annoying that this mouse has buttons on the side where you grip it and the left one goes back in the browser and the right one goes forward. Imagine if you're filling out a form and hit it, most forms/websites have no protection against it.

Have you ever found a website/page that has several or perhaps dozens, hundreds or thousands of files that you need downloaded but don't have the time to manually do it?
wget's recursive function called with -r does that, but also with some quirks to be warned about.
If you're doing it from a standard web based directory structure, you will notice there is still a link to .. and wget will follow that.
Eg. let's say you have files in http://serverip/documen........
php won't work with absolute links
Warning: imagecreatefromgif(/images/header.gif): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /vhostsdir/httpdocs/images.php on line 15
That is how my path is structured and ONLY likes the true full path as /vhostsdir/httpdocs/images/header.gif
Why can't it work relative to the vhost directory with absolute links just like say an html link would.........
Mencoder is great, you can throw anything at it, including video files from your camera and have it encode into xvid or almost any other format.
In my case I took 640x480 video from my Canon and reduced the size by 1/3 with the options below (there are many other options that you can read about in the manual but I like to keep it simple).

This is a very simple solution, but most guides out there make you login twice (once to scp the key) and once to put the key in authorized_keys. There's no need for that.
If you don't already have a ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub just type "ssh-keygen -t rsa" and keep hitting enter until it's done :)
Just use this code to easily enable passwordless login with SSHD

Chipmaker Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) has successfully topped the personal computer market for decades. Breaking into related areas such as communications has been much difficult for the world's largest semiconductor maker. But a new partnership with Nokia (NYSE: NOK) could help to change that.
