Compiz-Check

source : http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check

Compiz-Check is a script to test if Compiz is able to run on your system/setup and if not, it will tell you the reason why.

Additionally you can use the output of the script to look for support in the official Compiz Fusion forums or the mailing list / forum of your distribution, which will make it much easier to locate your problem.

The script is suitable for GNOME, KDE and Xfce users and is not limited to a specific Linux distribution – in fact, the script lists those infos for you.

The test consists mainly of three parts:

   1. List relevant system information
   2. Run several Compiz related checks
   3. Check for problematic hardware and problems with the setup in use.

Download & Usage
Do not just copy & paste the following to your blog/forum – find out why

The script is available here.
You can use this command to download it to your home directory:

wget http://blogage.de/files/9124/download -O compiz-check


Afterwards, you have to make it executable:

chmod +x compiz-check


And finally run it like this:

./compiz-check

So the output will eventually look like this:

./compiz-check

Gathering information about your system...

 Distribution:          Ubuntu 10.04
 Desktop environment:   GNOME
 Graphics chip:         Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)

Checking if it's possible to run Compiz on your system...

 Checking for texture_from_pixmap...               [ OK ]
 Checking for non power of two support...          [ OK ]
 Checking for composite extension...               [ OK ]
 Checking for FBConfig...                          [ OK ]
 Checking for hardware/setup problems...           [ OK ]




This is very good.

Fastest way to send multiple drafts from gmail

People claim that the fastest way to send multiple email drafts is to use Gmail IMAP with email client like Outlook or Evolution or Thunderbird. But I have found this is not true. Because Thunderbird and Evolution etc. email clients treats the drafts as emails still to be edited. So it is not just simple select all and hit send. Each email draft has to be opened and sent separately. That is a lot of clicks and mouse movements, wasting precious time and energy. I have a better solution which involves minimum keystrokes and mouse usage. Efficiency booster technique for sending emails. If someone is feeling adventurous and want to try it from the Gmail interface itself, here's how to do it in the fastest possible manner. It involves using the mouse once. Select the first draft. Gmail would open a new email box and put the cursor inside the box to write. Press TAB once to go the Send button. Press ENTER to send. Now Gmail sends it and the box is gone but the highlight goes to the last

Changing the font size of section headings in LaTex

You have several ways to do so: 1.- A direct redefinition of \section: \makeatletter \renewcommand\section{\@startsection{section}{1}{\z@}%                                   {-3.5ex \@plus -1ex \@minus -.2ex}%                                   {2.3ex \@plus.2ex}%                                   {\normalfont\large\bfseries}} \makeatother 2.- By means of the titlesec package: \usepackage{titlesec} \titleformat{\section}{\large\bfseries}{\thesection}{1em}{} 3.- By means of the sectsty package: \usepackage{sectsty} \sectionfont{\large} source : http://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3245   Now, I would explain the titlesec package a bit more (because it seems easier to me and with more options) : To change the section fonts with this package put the following lines in the preamble - \usepackage{titlesec} \titleformat{\ section }{\ large \ bfseries }{\thesection}{1em}{} Options available are- a> Font size - \normals
