How To Fix Font Size For A Shrunken Webpage? Please Read On . . .

I have Ubuntu 14.04
Recently I was on Craigslist when my 7 month old smacked the keyboard somewhere on the bottom left corner. It shrunk the font down to like quarter size, it's so teeny I can just barely read it if I lean REALLY close . . . Does anyone know how to fix it. It doesn't do it if I change areas on Craigslist, only where I was when she hit it, which is really irritating because that's the area I use!. And it's ALL categories in that area! Even the pictures are small now. It's been this way for a month and it's driving me nuts because I use it all the time, can anyone help?

Tiny Font Printing A Libre Writer .odt Doc

Tiny font when printing Libre Writer doc.
Using Mint 17.1, HP Officejet Pro 8610
Print is so tiny it is illegible, even though font size selected is 12. Printing a text file, gedit, prints okay.
Also, if I export the .odt doc to .pdf, it prints okay.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I just dumped Win7 OS and am learning Linux.

Change SSH Font Color In Terminal?

Guys,
Is there a way to change the font color, within my local terminal, every time I SSH into another machine?

I know I can set it up on each individual remote machine by adding something to my bashrc file. But, I ssh into 50 or so machines and would prefer not to ssh into each individual one. There may not be another way though?

TIA!

Ubuntu 4 Tb Partitioning Confusion - Need Advice

Hi All;
Can someone give me some guidance on partitioning a 4TB drive into one partition ?

My goal is to align the partition for best performance. I searched the net for advice and I've found a lot of information on it but am still confused.

After setting the label to gpt,

I tried mkpart primary 0% 100%
and I get the warning that the partition isn't aligned

then I tried mkpart primary 1 -1 (which I really hoped would get me completed)

and when I do an align-check on partition 1, it reports 1 aligned

but then when I do an fdisk -l,
I get the warning that partition 1 does not start on a physical sector boundary

I read that sector size is usually 512 bytes but on some (or perhaps all) larger disks, the sector size is 4096.

I am really not knowledgable in this area and not sure if the above message about partition 1 not starting on a physical sector boundary is important or what impact this will have to my performance. Since these 4tb drives are being used in a media server, I'd like them to be as fast and efficient as possible.

Can you offer some guidance or perhaps some commands on how to partition my (full) 4tb drive into one partition so it is aligned and also so the partition table starts on a physical sector boundary ?

Also, is there a Ubuntu utility to display the sector size of a disk?

I have been researching this issue off and on for a few weeks and would like to finally get this partitioning completed this weekend so I can get on with setting up my system.

Thanks.

Uploading Pictures From Cellphone To Ubuntu

My son built me a new desktop from the ground up, which works beautifully, but I'm new to Linux (Ubuntu) and learning as I go. Since my computer is custom, I don't have any "instructions" to lean on. I want to upload pictures from my cell phone, but don't know how because I'm not very computer literate (sorry!). I have tried plugging in my LG G3 phone with a USB cable, but my computer doesn't seem to respond to it. Nothing happens. Can someone give me some pointers? Thanks!

Thanks so much, Ztcoracat, I did manage to get all the pictures printed out that I needed by using your idea of emailing them to my email address and then printing them out from there. Great idea and good advice!! Thanks again!!

Please HELP ME Get Rid Of This Voice On My Computer!

Baby hit something and now whenever I roll over something with my mouse or type this voice says the letter or the name of the webpage or if I adjust the volume it tells me what volume (i.e. "volume setting 29") It's driving me nuts!!! It's like the baby enabled a hearing impaired setting or something. I have Ubuntu 14.04 and Firefox. Help?

Newbie With A PCI To Parallel Card Problem

I'm a newbie with a Linux box running Ubuntu 10.04 that I'm attempting to setup to control a desktop CNC. The box didn't have a parallel port so I purchased a SYBA PCI to Parallel card. Following the instructions from the card I ran "lspci -v" and below is what it showed;

03:00.0 Communication controller: NetMos Technology PCI 9835 Multi-I/O Controller (rev 01)
Subsystem: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic Device 0010
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 19
I/O ports at ec00 [size=8]
I/O ports at e880 [size=8]
I/O ports at e800 [size=8]
I/O ports at e480 [size=8]
I/O ports at e400 [size=8]
I/O ports at e080 [size=16]
Kernel modules: parport_serial

The instruction stated to use the following command;

/sbin/modprobe parport_pc io=e080, irq=19 If I read the instructions correctly.

Unfortunately, the instructions didn't say where to add this command line. Also I didn't see any drivers listed on the disk for the chipset referenced above. So is the card trying to use a generic driver installed by Linux?

Your guidance is greatly appreciated!!
Thank you Brian

Wireless Mouse And Wireless Keyboard Is Not Working In Linux Distro's

Wireless mouse and wireless keyboard is not working in Linux distro's.

Read the similar threads on this issue. Boot mode is set for UEFI and Legacy therefore not sure what to do to enable mouse and keyboard? The mouse and keyboard use the same 'receiver' and the receiver indicator is green when Linux distro is fully loaded. Have tried various distro's, Ubuntu, and Ubuntu based distro's using LIVE DVD method on all. Latest distro tried is Peach 14.04.1 TW.40 64 bit. Motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3, CPU AMD FX6300 3.5 Ghz six core.

Thanks for any assistance.

Help Me Choose Between 3 Distros. How Behind Are Packages Being Packaged In Ubuntu?

The general question is: How behind are packages being packaged in Ubuntu? I know that this depends on the package and a ton of things, but I just want to get a sense of (stable vs. cutting edge--is there a good balance of both?) Ultimately, I want a system that fast, reliable, up-to-date, and easy to maintain.

I find myself debating whether to go with minimal Ubuntu, Arch Linux, or Slackware. I did some reading and realize that Ubuntu and Slackware are considered stable while Arch Linux is considered bleeding edge (yes, I realize Arch and Slackware require more work to maintain) but never to what extent. For example, I don't mind at all spending a ton of time setting things up since it is a one-time process, but I don't want to spend more than say 10 minutes a month for maintenance and ensuring things to work. From what I've read, Arch actually doesn't require much.

I'm not sure how behind the packages in Ubuntu/Slackware are to warrant me switching to another distro. I'm also not sure how stable Arch Linux is to warrant me to switching to a cutting/bleeding-edge distro for up-to-date stable packages (NOT anything newer, I don't want bleeding edge). I know that Arch has tests its packages too, but people often say "expect breakage".

Thanks!

Some notes:

- Don't recommend Ubuntu simply because Arch/Slackware requires a higher level of understanding to make it work. I intend to read documentations.
- I get the sense that Canonical is in the direction of "my way or the highway" and I really align with the Arch Way, but these are just philosophies that shouldn't have too much say in choosing a distro.
- Package management is important to me in sense that the system is tidy. For now, I have avoided PPAs on Ubuntu for this reason (apt-pinning is a solution but I don't know if it's a complete solution--if it is, I would have no problems with PPAs and actually use them).
- I like a system where it is bloat-free and has what I want, perhaps building from the base up. I don't know if this would necessarily provide me better performance though. I think Slackware kind of goes against this, but it's not a big deal especially because I heard Slackware is quite optimized somehow.
- I was originally set on Arch, but there are people telling me "expect breakage", "never update before an important event because of this" , "too much work to maintain when I just want to get things done" , and highlighting the disadvantages of a rolling-distro. This while I read things like "the only time Arch has broken for me was cause of my mistake in 3 years of using it" , "maintaining Arch takes like 5 minutes a month" , "as long as you subscribe to Arch news and don't do crazy stuff, Arch is as stable as any distro".
- I intend on being a programmer/doing software engineering if that matters. Maybe it means I don't want to spend too much time maintaining (not setting) the OS when I've got other things to do.

Thanks once again.

I Need To Increase Keyboard Buffer Size To Allow Key Strokes At 6000 WPM

I am using Debian 7 KVM in a cloud and I find the keyboard buffer in a terminal window is about 35 characters in length thus when I run my keyboard emulator, I have to pause after 35 keys in order not to overflow the buffer.

I want to be able to login and dump the instructions to the KVM server then go to the next one. e.g If I wanted a mass roll out of Yacy search engines or other applications.

I know no Human can type that fast. But my Program can on the PS2 interface.
The USB keyboard port maxes out a 700 WPM
