Evolution Mail program for Ubuntu doesn't play sound upon receiving new mail

Evolution Mail program for Ubuntu 9.10 doesn't play sound upon receiving new emails.

The box is checked, but only a notification overlay appears upon receiving new mail. If I'm away from the computer, there's no audible tone to indicate getting new mail.

I've overlooked this issue for some time and am now determined to figure out why the sound is not making it to the speakers.

I've also noticed that Evolution's Mail Notification Plugin is unable to play OGG files.

Install mail-notification-evolution. In a terminal, type:

Google Chrome 5.0.307.11 beta

The Good: Lightweight, simple interface, loads quick, awesome tab openner!

The Bad: CKeditor doesn't work well with Chrome. Hitting Control-B within the editor doesn't operate javascript bolding within the editor. Somehow the button combination pressed went back into browser history, therefore losing everything I had typed. I'm done testing Chrome!!!

I don't care about being green. I just care about my investment!

Knowing how much Toyota is gonna get screwed over for flaws in their Prius line definitely motivates me to run out and do something great for a mass amount of people.

What gets me, is Toyota will probably be screwed over for a product that devalued itself, yet the Government can continue to print more money, therefore devaluing your safe full of money... That's stealing.

My QuiBids Experience

I became curious of what QuiBids was, especially after seeing numerous laptops and Mac Book Pros go for pennies on the dollar. So I bought 40 credits for $25 and gave it a whirl.

Here are a few things I found interesting:

No WYSIWYG, CTKEDITOR, FCKEDITOR support in Android Browser

For some time now, many CMS's (Content Management Systems) use WYSIWYG editors (What You See Is What You Get) for content creation, modification and hierarchy arrangement. The Android based phones do not seem to support these rich textareas within its browser. When attempting to focus a rich text editor, the browser begins to think you want to input a url, rather than data in an html field.
 A simple way around this is to click "switch to plain text editor," and make your changes in the basic text field. Then later on, edit the data with a real browser like Firefox and clean up the html-less paragraphs.

T-Mobile 3G Status in Port Townsend

2010-01-30: When is T-Mobile going to provide 3G coverage to Port Townsend? T-Mobile offers 3G to main highways and greater Seattle areas, but why not Port Townsend? AT&T has offered 3G in Port Townsend at least a couple of years now.

Eye Of Gnome (eog) for Ubuntu 9.10 doesn't support pause and resume of slideshow

My friend wanted to use the image viewer for Gnome, Eye of Gnome or eog, as a slideshow player for a simple presentation. However, we could not find any controls or buttons to pause or resume playback of the images. Pressing the spacebar to pause and resume the slideshow was mentioned on a few sites, but when trying the space bar, the image changes to the next.

We are now looking at other image viewers that provide a simple slideshow with pause and resume functions.
