For almost any hardware there will be people trying to make it work with Ubuntu. For almost any non-niche software there will be Ubuntu users trying to make it work. The PPA system makes it easy for developers or porters to provide Ubuntu packages. I often advise Windows users to find an older unloved and unwanted PC that can't handle current windows software and install Linux (to run some software from NASA that originated over 20 years ago on SGI Irix and has never been ported to Windows). Ubuntu usually installs from a live image where other distros have problems. If there are problems, the Windows user can usually find a nearby Ubuntu user to help at any research institute or university around the globe. The biggest problems I have with Ubuntu is the many internet sites that suggest using "sudo" where it is not appropriate and users who to reinstall whenever something stops working instead of learning how to fix the problem (too often because a side effect of what they did with "sudo" made files in their home directory inaccessible or put config files in root's home directory). > I do wonder what will happen with the IBM ownership. > The majority of Fedora users will be people who use or support Red Hat or CentOS production systems so gravitate to fedora on development workstations or laptops. -- George N.

Final on enlarging swap - I really needed more memory
Just felt I should post a wrap up on my swap increase journey. All last week I ran with 4GB real memory and a total of 8GB swap. I was using all the real memory and pretty much 4GB of swap with poor performance. What was going on? With Fedora 28 I was running fairly well with 4GB, or was I? Plus I upgraded from a 2 core x120e to a 4 core x140e and I thought things would be better. So this morning I pulled a 4GB card out of another x140e I have that is currently off. Free is reporting: $ free total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 7416056 3609248 860448 354948 2946360 3158088 Swap: 3419132 0 3419132 and performance is just fine. So I was suffering with only 4GB of real memory. Perhaps F30 needs more than F28 or 4 core is just having more things going and needs more memory. Anyway, going to have to pop for the $20 for a 4GB card to put into the system that is sitting with no memory Thanks for the help on adding a swap file. I have recorded that in my instructions file for any future need. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
Re: Fool mouse with minecraft

Re: CSV to text -
I have done it in the past by loading the .csv into a spreadsheet program, saving a selection as a PDF file, and then converting the PDF file into text using something like okular or pdftotext. If you do it this way there are a couple of things to be careful of: 1) Just save a selection to be converted to PDF. Some spreadsheet programs try to save a lot of white space, and take forever to finish. I've had this problem with Libreoffice. There may be a problem if there are a zillion columns, because you will get it spread over a lot of pages. There might be a way around that with the PDF settings, but I don't know what it is. 2) You may have to play with programs that will move PDF to text to get the right formatting. I've had reasonable luck with using okular; pdftotext tended to have problems with wide pages. billo On Sun, 2019-08-04 at 20:05 -0400, Bob Goodwin wrote: > How can I convert a .csv file to text in a Fedora system. > > Bob > > -- > Bob Goodwin - Zuni, Virginia, USA > http://www.qrz.com/db/W2BOD > box83 FEDORA-30/64bit LINUX XFCE Fastmail POP3 > ___ > users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

They're already plain text, so you can view them in any text viewer that you like, or even use "less" in the command line. If you're accessing them through a file manager, you should have more than one option when you right-click on them. And you should be able to change your preferred default. They don't have to be associated with your email program as default. If you want, you could find a contact manager. That way you'd get the raw code massaged into something more human readable, and (hopefully) using your preferred desktop colour scheme. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 5.0.16-100.fc28.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 14 18:22:28 UTC 2019 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.

Re: Fool mouse with minecraft
> I have been using a Kensington trackball for years Interesting, first time I hear about that. How do you replace the middle button and the wheel? I am used to zoom in/out with control wheel for example.

Installing wine makes the scanner obsolete. But, from '98 I am using M S Bookshelf 1998. This thing has become a regular tool in my studies. A little bit after 2000 I came into GNU-Linux. For all this time I never had any problem in using this Bookshelf 1998 with wine. Can any of you suggest me any other way to work with this MSW Software in GNU-Linux? -- দাশ das http://ddts.randomink.org/ ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
