re: Canon Pixma MP520 printer driver

2008-05-04 Thread Anthony Joshua Brow
Hello all,

Further regards the above, despite having tried several Canon Drivers
from different sites, the printer will not print, only chases an empty
page thru the printer.

However, I have downloaded the German Turbo print free version and it
works excellent, BUT it leaves their brand name in amongst
what one is printing.  ( their driver is only for trial and if one likes
it, one has to pay Turboprint USD $30.00) for it).

Again I ask , where is the problem ? Is it in Hardy Heron ? Or has Canon
not kept up-to-date, or have they not been advised of the 
new Ubuntu 8.04 by Canonical ?

Is it worthwhile to question Canonical in the UK about this ??  As I
mentioned before, I had this printer working with a driver from
Canon Asia in Dapper Drake.

Thanks in advance for any advice,

 Any help is appreciated!


 If you go to the area where you select your screen, there is a checkbox  
 for
 a widescreen monitor... make sure this is deselected.

Thanks for your reply.

There is no option under Screen Resolution to select widescreen monitor.  
Is this where you mean?

 there is a folder named '.trash-1000' It contains many binary files and I am

 someone point me to a way to getting the stuff out of these files in this

try 'cp /somewhere/in/outerspace/.trash-1000/files/agreenbigeyedcreature.png

Re: waking up applications from sleep...

 hey guys
  
 silly question, I have hardy on my laptop.  if my flatmate leaves it on
 overnight and I switch users and login under my account and I goto
 system monitor all the applications seem to be sleeping.  makes it
 hard to launch firefox etc...
  
 is there an easy way to wake them all up?

Sleeping is the normal state for applications which aren't doing
anything.  They're waiting for the signal to be woken up.  Unless
something isn't functioning, you shouldn't need to do anything.

Why is it hard to launch Firefox?  You should be able to run it under
your user id if someone else is logged in, regardless of what they're doing.

Flash - it hurts! Make it stop! :-(

2008-05-04 Thread Paul Gear
Does anyone know a way to stop Firefox asking about installing missing
plugins?  Facebook is driving me nuts since they switched their status
app to Flash, since i'm on 64-bit Gutsy.

Sorry for the noise, folks.  ere4si in the #ubuntu-au pointed me in the
right direction: set plugin.default_plugin_disabled in about:config to
false.  http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/firefox-linux.html#qa-nullplugin
