Yes I use flashblock and I disable it.   Now the puzzle works.  I'm surprised because you
click the round button to go ahead with flash, it should work.  Why it didn't work?  Enlighten
me.

Nope flash-aid did not work either.  I let it install the latest beta version (version 11).
On the eee lpatop which has linux mint 10 lxde and where kenken works, I have flash
version 10.2.161.23.  On this dinosaur desktop which has #! 10 2/12, I have flash version
11.2.202.233.  So the problem is not flash (I think). 

What else may be the problem?  Can someone with #! 10 (2/12 or earlier) give kenken a try?
I.e., go to

http://www.kenken.com/play_now

and try to play this addictive math game.

Why are you running ubuntu, a bloated distro, on this machine?  Look at

http://delicate-linux.net/

You may want to consider Tiny Core too.

But I suspect DeLi is smaller.  Never tried either so can't comment on them.

My experience (used mandriva, xandros, pclinux, minime, #!, mepis, mint, etc) is all distros
have some quirks - something not quite right here and there.  There is no "perfect" distro.
The disclaimer does a great job of scaring the perfectionists.  The rest of us know some hacking
may be needed here and there.

HPLIP is a HP specific program for printing.  Supposely it has stuffs in it like photo features, etc.
I would download it since you have a HP printer.

Go to

system -> printers -> configure printers
right-click your printer -> properties

and roam around.  Also when you pop up a print page, look at the various tabs.  Finally, within
the program itself, look around and see if you can increase/change the font (e.g., edit -> preference,
tools -> options, etc).

I have no clue on the mouse setting but ...

If you know the command line fix, you could add it to your autostart script and avoid doing
it every time.

You shouldn't need to avoid youtube to avoid flash.  Signup for html5 experimental youtube at

http://www.youtube.com/html5

Warning: not all youtube video works as html5.   Also the slow motion/fast motion feature doesn't
seem to work (at least for me - so if you get it going, please post).  [While running the videos, click
"normal" and change the speed.]

Thank for replying.

The reason for using iceape as well as icedove is because I actually have too many email addresses -
About 5 active ones and a few more I occasionally use - And only two of them have spams.
Yes, I could merge them all into icedove, but I separate them so that the alarm for icedove catches
me while the iceape alarm is weak.

el_korace, what does your command do?  What does the 200 means?  Is it something about iceweasel
(FF) overlapping with iceape (SM)?

A workaround...

Consider adding a script in your autostart so that
monitor is the right size.

Sheng-Chieh

Thank!

Your script works.  I'll substitute put my links - should work.

Meanwhile, I got to understand javascript more.  But you got me started in the right direction.

CUPS do not work unless you have adminstrator access setup.  There are two ways:

1.
Create a root account
- sudo passwd root
- enter password twice

2.
Give yourself group permission - sorry I do not the command (I did it long ago) - can someone
else gives the command.

Then go to localhost:631, login, and do whatever.
