Emulating middle mouse button with keyboard
Thu, 16 Jul 2009 17:07:52 +0100
I want to emulate middle mouse button clicks with a spare key on my
keyboard. I used to do it with one of my old laptops but I can't
remember how. I can't find anything useful on Google; the only thing
that looked like what I wanted was xrebind, but that didn't work for me.

BBC iPlayer - Jumpy Graphics
12 Jul 2009 12:34:10 GMT
Hello All
I am using BBC iPlayer on Debian Lenny. It works, including subtitles.
However, the video display is slow and jumpy. I think this is due to CPU
overload, rather than to a network problem (I get download speeds
consistently up to 10 megabits per second on tests, but the usage made by
iPlayer is m ...

Mouse button 4 problem on moving from Ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04
09 Jul 2009 10:22:31 GMT
I have a Logitech mouse with four buttons, buttons 1 to 3 do the
conventional things but I had programmed button 4 to emulate a double
click of button 1 under Ubuntu 8.10 (well, xubuntu 8.10 actually but
near enough). I did it using the description at:-

OT: Backup software (and scheme, easily verifiable) for MS-Windows
Wed, 08 Jul 2009 11:59:28 +0100
I have the feeling that I'll get a more usable reply from this n.g. than
from a Windows specific one (and one that I may be able to understand).
Wanted: suggestion of backup software (and hardware?) and an easily
verifiable scheme for naive Windows users.
Incidentally, I'm a Linux user and anything data-like ...

IP tunneling
Fri, 03 Jul 2009 14:42:15 +0100
Here I am in deepest France, wanting to listen to the Wimbledon
commentary on radio 5. However, the BBC refuses to serve certain
material, including this, to non-uk IP addresses.
I'm sure I should be able to set up a tunnel through my Gradwell linux
shell account, but can't remember how to do it. Has anyone h ...

Gnome Sound Recorder - where ?
Thu, 02 Jul 2009 15:13:26 +0100
Hi - Centos 5.3/Gnome
AIUI this should be in Applications/Sound & Video/Media but despite having
gnome-media-2.16.1-3 as part of the Centos package, Sound Recorder doesn't
appear anywhere and it's not a question of menu setup, it's simply not available
to select.
For some reason no one in Centos support h ...
