[SLUG] Flash in Firefox

Anyone know how to get flash to work properly in Firefox. At present I
open flash pages in epiphany because it renders flash pages correctly,
but Firefox just gives me a black page. I have the latest flash for
Linux installed. I'm using Ubuntu 6.06.
I don't mind running two browsers but one would be easier.
TIA
Ashley

California law does not require that police pursue inquiries pointing
away from the defendant, and may actually excuse the failure to pursue
leads, interview witnesses, and collect evidence.
The CJA has an excellent website, which is now listed in the legal
resources section. Its rich passages should be quoted in every
sentencing memorandum filed in the district court.
Time for some serious shoveling! District courts neither should, nor
can, ignore that by placing undue weight on the Guideline portion of the
sentencing chemistry. Geological Survey monitoring well. The court held
the district-wide policy "effects a diminution of the liberty of

While he is a man of great intelligence, his rigid judicial philosophy
has created conflict on the court, particularly with O'Connor. It was so
powerful that it drained magma from under another volcano, Mount Katmai,

Right or wrong, the courts seem very willing to listen to an officer's

No surprise, I suppose; both cars handled so well that they pretty much

Trial counsel must make extra effort to keep track of the numbers of
prospective minority jurors, as well as how many are struck by the
prosecution.
The dangers averted by declaring them to be merely advisory would become
recrudescent. In practice, it is fairly easy for officers responding to
a domestic violence call to either obtain the needed consent, or to
adequatly justify their entry into the home. If only the Governor could
break away from the grip of the CCPOA on this .

[SLUG] Free Lexmark E232

2006-10-16 Thread James Gray

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi All,

As per the subject - I have a Lexmark E232 laser printer that only  
needs a new toner cartridge (between $100-$250 depending on where you  
get it).  It's in basically new condition except for the 1000  
copies it's done.  Has a parallel and USB interface and works well  
under Linux (http://linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Lexmark- 
E232).  Pick up only - I'm in Albion Park (south Wollongong - http:// 
tinyurl.com/tmchg [maps.google.com]).  I offered it up on  
freecycle.org for my area but haven't had any takers - so I'm  
offering it here.  If no-one wants it, I'll sell it on eBay.


First person on my door step wins.

Cheers,

James

Re: [SLUG] New St George HTML based online banking interface

2006-10-16 Thread Adam Kennedy

Ditto.

I for one loved the Java web banking site. I felt something of a mild 
sense of security in that it was the only site that couldn't be 
trivially screen-scraped. (although I did discover a way later on to 
emulate the client-server protocol).


I consider the move to HTML a step back.

That said, it will mean that Linux people with Java issues won't have 
problems any more.

No, it appears that SA opens the log file on demand.

Understandable, but on another front, it makes St George bank's internet

[SLUG] scripting question

2006-10-16 Thread Sonia Hamilton
I've written a small script that archives email - it works, but I was
wondering if there's any better way to write it (apart from using
another language).

The script is:

 for i in z_bak:7 root:14 y_spam_definite:56 ; do
 mydir=${i%:*}
 mydays=${i#*:}

$mydir is the directory to cleanup, $mydays is the # of days I want to
keep email. Is there any better way of writing the for loop to go thru
the 2 sets of values?

Re: [SLUG] dual monitor video card

2006-10-16 Thread Ben

PCIx or AGP (or PCI even)?

I'm using two Gigabyte Geforce 6200 TCs (GV-NX62TC256D8) to drive four
analogue monitors, all 3D accelerated (albeit rather slow acceleration
as they're entry level cards) and all capable of displaying a video
overlay. They are both PCIx and are running on an SLI motherboard with
SLI mode on, but they aren't bridged because they're too cheap to
support this and it woudn't be any use when running multiple displays.

A few things to consider:

* If you want to use XGL, max is two monitors and must be done on the
one card using NVIDIA Twinview (may change one day, but that's where
it's at last I checked)

* If you want to use analogue monitors, make sure that the second
connector is attached to the board, not via a ribbon cable (as this
turns the picture quality to garbage. Also, some cards don't support a
digital - analogue adapter (usually the cheaper/nastier ones, but
some (possilby most) of the Dual DVI options only support digital -
analogue on one of the outputs).

* If you want to use digital monitors, minimum is a 6600GT, but not
all have dual digital outputs, only the more expensive ones. (but you
said mid range, so that should be ok $ wise).

Indeed.

I wonder whether it's a coincidence I've just started getting
St George phishing attempts.  I get between 10 to 100 of phishing
messages per week, and they're usually National, Commonwealth,
occasionally ANZ, and a handful of foreign banks and ebay/paypal.

Only today have I got some St George ones.  
I can't remember the last time I got them for St George.
