| hotornot | <reply> We tend to strongly discourage hot-or-not style discussions about women, as they're known to discourage female geeks from participating in communities. Female participation in geek communities is really low (less than 2% on average :( ), so lets not discourage any more! See also !girls and !women for more information on how to help stop this tragedy. | elkbuntu Added on: 2008-11-25 08:53:16 Last edited by elkbuntu Last modified: 2008-11-25 08:54:12 Requested 11 times |
| runlevels runlevel | <reply> In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | Pici Added on: 2008-11-17 16:12:48 Never edited Requested 571 times |
