Re: Howto: Easy full-system backup with rsync

Few comments:

Instead of all those excludes, I would use -x/--one-file-system switch and just list the mounted filesystems that need backing up (/ , /opt and /home/user/MyDocs probably).

Re: Pictures: Nokia N9 Real leak

It would be nice if it were that way, but that is not how DRM works. It's not a "feature" that you can just ignore or use at your will. In most cases, DRM needs to "infect" the whole system and...

Re: mbarcode

Then the user sees three packages and it's not entirely clear which to go for:
mbarcode
mbarcode-all

Re: mbarcode

But it can still scan a barcode and save the output somewhere. It does not "need" the plugins. If you install the plugins, however, they will do nothing without mbarcode.

By default the "user" user is locked so ssh doesn't accept logins to it. You can unlock it with "sudo passwd -u user". Also make sure that the ~/.ssh directory and ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file are NOT...

Re: BatteryGraph: how to fix (ore reset) database

The database appears to be in the /home/user/.BatteryGraph/BatteryGraphDB.sqlite file. I would expect the application to recreate it if you delete it, though I cannot promise it will do so.

Re: why mappero uses so much space?

You can waste up to 64k per file. Tile-based mapping appears to use many files, it probably stores each tile in a file.
