CaldwellYSR's questions

I work on a laptop with a small screen and I do not have access to multiple monitors on this machine like I do at work. I have set my terminal up with transparency so I can see through to whatever I am developing on the browser behind the terminal but I would love to be able to click through the terminal and interact with the browser directly.

I have not tried anything outside of google searching because I don't have any experience with this type of thing.

EDIT: The "possible duplicate" question doesn't answer my question because it basically just makes a script for doing a quicker alt+tab window switch. I have no problem using alt+tab to switch windows, I would just prefer to not have to switch windows at all. I want my mouse to interact with the browser while my keyboard interacts with the terminal.

How can I completely remove all traces of Java on my system?

I already know how to install it in case I need it again.

I recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my MacBook. I have it running smoothly on here, but when I used the same disk to install Ubuntu on a friend's Dell Laptop it isn't working correctly.

After the installation process finished, he logged in and everything ran just fine. However when he shut the computer down and later turned it back on, he can't log on. He's using the same login information as before but he keeps getting an authorization failure. I've had him try using his short username and the full name but neither will work.

Is this a hardware problem because of his computer or did something go wrong with the installation?
