My Computer

I've been asked for the specs on the machine I use.

I've been using my computer since 2014. It's a relatively old machine. I have a 4th generation Intel i5 processor. I have 16 GB of DDR3 RAM. I use an ASUS Z97 motherboard. I use a 240 GB SSD for storage. But I also have a 3 2TB Seagate hard disk set up for a RAID 5 to house my data. It's old but performance is fast and storage is big. It's a very nice machine for media, media storage and if I decide to replace this, it will be a very good server for the home.

Appindicator In Natty Ubuntu 11.04

Previously ranted about the blind alley Ubuntu 11.04 seemed to be leading us when it comes to some applications not being ready yet for the dropping of system tray.  What I should have done is press on. There are posts about editing a white list with a recommended GUI tool to help us out here , here and here . Like everything in Linux, there's a configuration file for it, if you can find it and if you have the inclination to go ninja. If not then there's dconf-editor. Download dconf-tools from Software Center. Navigate to desktop>unity>panel. Add your application in the white list. Then close the window. No save button. mmm. So far I have added Shutter, Dropbox and Keepassx in the white list.                Before...  After.

Evolution Mail on GNOME 3.26

There's a slight change in the user interface. A To Do column now appears to the rightmost after the GNOME 3.26 update. Also there's a noticeable stability increase, what with goa-daemon stopping its RAM usage creep. I don't have to kill it every couple of hours.
