Hello,
I was surprised today when my motorola changed to an Arris device... I read about this and it seems like ISPs have the power to upgrade your firmware. My question is, how much power does an ISP have over my gateway. Note that I do not rent this gateway, I bought it thinking that I would be able to control stuff like this... If I am concerned about stuff like this, would buying a separate modem and dedicated router do the trick? Thanks! Brusegadi (talk) 03:58, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
I recently decided to switch to key-based authentication for SSH on my network. After dedicating a few hours to figure out how it worked, it seemed simple enough. However I hit a snag when I tried running ssh-add on my Ubuntu 13.10 install. While I could get it to work, I could never get it to retain my key/passphrase information across reboots.
After combing through some internet forums, I found various "solutions" but none of them really seemed to address the problem. Adding identity files in my ~/.ssh/config is not a solution in my mind (it makes key management messy and does not scale well). No shell scripts I found will work either as all my keys are protected by passphrases. I suppose if I must, I will remake keys with no passphrases, but I would prefer not to.
What is causing this issue and how can I get the ssh-agent to work properly and retain my keys across reboots?
I have some clues that it might have something to do with Unity's keyring implementation, but I do not know how that works. I will happily disable it if possible though.
Thanks in advance. -Amordea (talk) 11:43, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
Dear Computing desk, I'm in the process of writing a fitting program that dumps its output into a CSV every X number of iterations. Does anyone have any recommendations for a program that could replot the output in real time? Right now I'm just looking at the RMSD calculated after every step, but I'd much rather have a graph that would automatically refresh after every refinement step. Preferably something X11 friendly, but I'm not really picky. It's not at all a crucial feature, more decorative than anything. Thanks, (+)H3N-Protein\Chemist-CO2(-) 13:52, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
Hello. I'm a student and I have dyslexia, so I'm using finnish audiobook library Celia. They have audiobooks downloadable from Internet using Daisy format. The problem is that they are recommending only expensive Daisy CD-players and programs for Windows. I have a Mac computer and not money for Daisy CD-player. I found free program named Olearia for Mac, but I think this program is quite poor, because it could not save bookmarks or search beginning of a chapter. The audio of the books are divided in 45 minutes mp3 files, so the program thinks that chapters begin in the beginning of the file. Could someone recommend some better audiobook listening program or maybe a mp3-player, which supports Daisy format?

Hi, I am facing a new problem in my blog. The problem is pagination is appearing only on Homepage..! While going through the pages it's not appearing..! Here is the HTML code of pagination I'm currently using:
/* Page Navigation styles */
.showpageNum a, .showpage a {
box-shadow: 3px 3px 2px #888888;
background: #ffffff;
padding:0 8px;
margin:0 4px;
text-decoration: none;
color:#000000;
border:1px solid #000000;
border-radius:3px;
-webkit-border-radius:3px;
-moz-border-radius:3px;
}
.showpageOf {
margin:0 8px 0 0;
}
.showpageNum a:hover, .showpage a:hover {
box-shadow: 3px 3px 2px #888888;
color:#ffffff;
background: #000000;
border:1px outset #000000;
border-radius:3px;
-webkit-border-radius:3px;
-moz-border-radius:3px;
}
.showpagePoint, .showpage a {
box-shadow: 3px 3px 2px #888888;
color: #000000;
background: #000000;
padding: 0 8px;
margin: 0 4px;
text-decoration: none;
color:#ffffff;
border:1px solid #000000;
border-radius:3px;
-webkit-border-radius:3px;
-moz-border-radius:3px;
}
/*...........................................................*/
<!--Page Navigation Starts-->
<script type='text/javascript'>
var home_page="/";
var urlactivepage=location.href;
var postperpage=6;
var numshowpage=6;
var upPageWord ='Previous';
var downPageWord ='Next';
</script><script src='http://mybloggertricksorg.googlecode.com/files/colorizetemplates-pagenav.js' type='text/javascript'/>
<!--Page Navigation Ends -->
Can anyone please tell, what change should I need to make in the above code for appearing pagination in all pages, including homepage?--Joseph 14:50, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
Hey all. (Mac user). I have Adobe Acrobat Professional. I was wondering if there is any way to compile a pdf in one shot of multiple items in a folder that are already, by name, in the order I would want them to be consolidated. I already know how to do it the slow way (document, insert pages and attach each one by one) but it's not very efficient. Here's an example of the contents of a folder:
Page 1.pdf Page 2.pdf Page 3.pdf Page 4.pdf Page 5.pdf Page 6.pdf Page 7.pdf Page 8.pdf Page 9.pdf Page 10.pdf Page 11.pdf Page 12.pdf
And I want to create a single pdf of these documents in page order. Anyone know of a way? Thanks.--71.167.166.18 (talk) 14:50, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
