I’m using the Sound Recorder application that comes in standard Ubuntu installations. To set this up using other programs (like audacity) just substitute it in these instructions.

1. Install pavucontrol (PulseAudio Volume Control) using apt-get or the Ubuntu Software Center.
2. Open PulseAudio Volume Control. It should be in the applications menu under Sound and Video.
3. Open Sound Recorder and start recording. Playing any sound at this point would be helpful, as your level indicator should react once you have finished.
4. Go to the “Recording” tab in the PulseAudio Volume Control window.
5. Make sure that “Applications” is selected in the drop down menu on the “Recording” tab.
6. Choose “Monitor of Internal Audio Analog Atereo” from the “Record Stream from” menu in the Sound Recorder entry of the application list.

This appears to be persistent so that you will only have to do this once, but you will have to repeat these steps to record in another application.

It works perfectly well with Xubuntu 9.04, there is a wireless Broadcom BCM4306  802.11b/g rev 3 wifi card in it. I had to manually enable the restricted driver under, Applications, System, Hardware Drivers and then reboot.

At that point, wifi, sound, suspend and hibernate all worked perfectly.

Code:

sudo apt-get install ttf-georgewilliams ttf-sjfonts sun-java6-fonts ttf-larabie-deco ttf-larabie-straight ttf-larabie-uncommon gnome-specimen

I am reviewing hundreds of fonts to pick the right one for my new IT Care Inc. logo I am designing. I will post the best of them fonts soon.

For now here is an “appetizer“, though:

This font is called Cuomotype in case you wanted to know.

Re: How do I create a page that doesn’t appear in the navigation

<div id="navbarleft">
<ul id="nav">
<li><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Home</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=2&sort_column=menu_order'); ?>
</ul>
</div>

<div id="navbarleft">
<ul id="nav">
<li><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Home</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('exclude=XX&title_li=&depth=2&sort_column=menu_order'); ?>
</ul>
</div>

Insert the following code segment:

<div class="comments">
<h4>Comments</h4>
<?php comments_template(); // Get wp-comments.php template ?>
</div>

into the theme’s page.php file to make it look like below:

<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content">
<div id="contentleft">
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<?php the_content(__('Read more'));?><div style="clear:both;"></div>
<!--
<?php trackback_rdf(); ?>
-->
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p><?php endif; ?>
<div class="comments">
<h4>Comments</h4>
<?php comments_template(); // Get wp-comments.php template ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/sidebar_page.php");?

The desired outcome is displayed in the following 2 images (click on images to get the full size displayed:
and

On the default REVOLUTION theme to align text better with the bottom 3 image you need to change 3 sections in the theme’s style.css file.

The 3 sections to look for are:

1. #homebottomleft img {
2. #homebottommiddle img {
3. #homebottomright img {

Change the second px setting on the margin line from 0px to 5px or whatever number of pixels work for you in all 3 instances. Example 1 is displayed below:

BEFORE

#homebottomleft img {
float: left;
border: 2px solid #999999;
margin: 0px 0px 10px 0px;
}

AFTER

#homebottomleft img {
float: left;
border: 2px solid #999999;
margin: 0px 5px 10px 0px;
}

1. Alt+F2
2. “gksu gedit /usr/share/applications/screensavers/gltext.desktop”

Change the line that currently says Exec=gltext -root to the following line instead:

Exec=gltext -root -front -no-spin -text “Mind is your conditioning\n always seeking expression\n IN THOUGHT\N through NOW!”

3. Save, Exit

4. Set your Screensaver to GLText under System, Preferences, Screensavers
