Cool, I use gnome's disk usage analyzer to help with removing files to find
where the biggest files are.
To find duplicate files I just switch to organize by file name then they come
together side by side so I can delete the duplicates. :)
I want to exclude certain files and file sizes when making a backup. I want
to keep certain file types in downloads but not real big files or video
files. Just small files of audio, office, web and ebook formats included in
keeping. How can I do this?
This is for my home folder I'd like to only keep certain files backed up in
all directories.
I want to backup only audio, web, office and ebooks(epub,pdf,mobi and office
formats doc,odf...etc. and web formats html,xhtml,xml...etc.)
How do I accomplish this?
What is your favorite backup tool
Found out how to do it with ffmpeg.
ffmpeg -i "concat:file1.mp3|file2.mp3" -acodec copy output.mp3
just use the tab key to auto-complete the file names but I think you need to
do that before putting it in with "concat: and | ". Otherwise, the tab
autocompletion will not work.
Do you have a recommended tutorial on how to do that?

I just used lucky backup instead and just modify the option to not delete
files on destination not in source folder.
I accidentally backed up to /home/username/username how to I copy that folder
so it goes in /home/username/ and that it only moves new or recently changed
files??
The keyboard shortcut is windows-key+e for home folder. I am not able to edit
preferences for that shell extension. Screenshots are attached for reference.
How do I change the default file manager? My locations shell extension opens
up audacious instead of files. Also when I do the keyboard shortcut I created
for files it opens audacious instead too. What should I do?
What commands or gui app can I use to achieve this?
is there a command you can use to see if your wifi card or adapter supports 5
ghz?

I am aware of that page already. But doesn't it depend on what carrier you

Is there a popcorn time like software but for audio(music, audiobooks,

Make sure you have an adblocker and noscript installed before accessing the
link he provides. Has a lot of advertisements via popups and new tabs.
Fixed my issue. I replaced the fan didn't work the first time so then I
replugged the fan back in then put the computer back together then it works.
It is a weak blow. But my older laptop has the same. Is it sucking in new air
or blowing out?
I have a WiFi adapter with a big antenna. Which can connect to wifi when
chrome and my phone can't. How do I share it so those devices can use my
connection also wirelessly?
I fixed it. It was because I was missing screws on bottom that holds the hard
drive in place. So the sudden jerk and almost hitting the ground caused the
drive to become unplugged.
The USB ports work fine now. Just on safe side I removed the board then put
it back And replugged in the cable. It is able to mount external portable
drives.
Never mind I think it was because my wireless mouse was low on batteries. Not
sure tho. Will have to wait and see.
Sometimes windows do not want to respond to commands made by the mouse. Ram
usage is only 1.8 gb out of the 8 gb memory. The computer isn't unresponsive
I can do other things like all the keyboard shortcuts work fine. What I do to
fix the problem is either wait or reselect the window again.

I have more than enough ram. 8 gigabytes. Suspend tabs seems to do wonders no
slowness so far. I changed the settings a little cause sometimes I open too
many tabs in a short amount of time. I figured my problem was
firefox(abrowser/icecat) and it seems I was right.
Thanks I will considered it. Are there servers free software too?
Are you saying my laptop won't accept a libre hardware wifi card then???
I haven't tried xfce in several years. Has it gotten better since then? Gnome
shell is very fast on my computer so no need for a lighter DE. The only thing
that slows down gnome shell is having abrowser or icecat with many tabs open.
Currently I am trying suspend tab to see if unloading tabs

Is it possible to run beaglebone black or any of the other boards via your

Awesome!!! What single board do you recommend to be run as a media center/
retro gaming/ file server?
Is that the complete list of libre hardware single board computers?
I am thinking maybe raspbian with libre linux kernel installed?? Then how do
I tell the repo to only install free software?
Why would the option still be there then?
Well I am not sure which I like better. I think I am liking gnome shell
better now. Maybe cause the network icon works. My computer handles gnome 3
shell perfectly even tho I think gnome 3 came out after it was made. 2.10 ghz
dual core 8 gb of ram. :)

I recently enabled backports. Now I have disabled it. How do I downgrade the
apps it upgraded? I tried disabling it and then running sudo apt-get update;
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade in terminal. That didn't seem to fix my issue.
If I decide to stay with mate how do I get rid of gnome and gnome specific
apps?
can logging out and switching to text login and logging in there to install
mate via the console. Will that make it so it doesn't generate gnome menu
entries?
Can I use the same themes and icons that work with gnome with mate?
How can I get mate specific apps to not be listed in gnome menu?
I mean to use for example the command line program called "mp3wrap" to use it
just as you would in terminal in python code.
How do I save my current theme with saved installable deb file(s)? So I can
use it again in later trisquel editions.
I am currently trying to learn python. I want to learn a programming language
