This one cleans up sqlite databases that firefox uses.



find /home/ -name \*.sqlite -exec /usr/local/bin/clean-sqlite "{}" \;


where /usr/local/bin/clean-sqlite contains

#!/bin/tcsh
echo "VACUUM;" | /usr/bin/sqlite3 "$*"

Has anybody got Skype ( ver. 2.1.0.47 ) video to work on (K)ubuntu Kosmic
Koala ( or what ever it is that they are callling the 9.10 version - I
forget ) ?

My logitech webcam used to work with earlier Kubuntus, but now all I get is
a grey background.

Any war stories - both good and bad - and a fix would be most welcome.

Ahhh! They have released a new version. Which file did you download? My 
preference would be to try the static version.


With the previous version running this cmd would bring up a 0 or a 1...

xvattr -a XV_AUTOPAINT_COLORKEY

If you get a 0 reset with

xvattr -a XV_AUTOPAINT_COLORKEY -v 1

You need to install xvattr
