If you're using LO on Linux, you likely will benefit from installing and
using the MS core true type fonts in LO files saved in Office formats and
shared with Windows users.
ttf-mscorefonts-installer is the package name, at least on Mint.
It is not free, but does not cost anything.

It seems it is possible to install a portable virtual box on a USB drive.
That along with your favorite virtual distro would let your kids do what
they want - run linux - on their school computers. You probably would be
best off configuring your virtualbox network to use NAT.

Hello Bill,
My last laptop was (still in use) a Lenovo T61. It was mistakenly ordered
with Vista. We only used XP and Linux. When XP was installed, it just
never worked - blue screened every day.So I inherited the misfit and

Hi all,
Regarding natty, this upstream kernel issue is a show stopper for me:

40% less battery time?That will need to get fixed before I would
upgrade.
Also, I believe the alt-f2 run dialog has been removed from Unity.

Hi all,
I am having a bothersome issue with ssh (maybe) and was wondering if anyone
has an idea what the problem might be.
I am running a reverse ssh tunnel from the west coast to a middle machine in
Nashua, NH. I need to run some machines on the left coast for some
embedded dev with hardware
Thanks.
I have already added to /etc/ssh_config
ServerAliveInterval 240
ClientAliveInterval 240
on all machines.
