Want to see the date and time in the Mutt mail client when reading e-mail ?

Then add the following to your ~/.muttrc

ignore *
unignore from date subject to cc
unignore organization organisation x-mailer: x-newsreader: x-mailing-list:
unignore posted-to:

Really, you just need to add unignore date. This snippet above firstly turns everything off, then selectively decides to show the headers as listed with unignore.

I have been slightly annoyed for a while now that my Mutt configuration wasn’t displaying the send-time when i was reading emails. I had the date in the e-mail list, but nothing in the actualy email.

Finally I got to look it up

Settings for Compiz on Ubuntu

Just found this

Lists some nice settings to use with Compiz.

The vortex setting in the ‘Expo’ effect is pretty nice!
(for the shortcut keys, ’super’ is probably familiar to most users as the ‘Alt Option’ key, or a key having an MS logo)

When Desktop Cube and Rotate Cube are enabled press and hold CTRL-ALT and click the left mouse button…

Fancy Desktop effect in Ubuntu 7.10

I had gone through setting up extra effects in ubuntu before with compiz, custom xorg configuration, and so forth.

With 7.10 I have just tried it again, and it couldn’t be easier.

I simple installed two packages as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl/simple and restarted the windowing system (CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE - beware, save anything you want to keep and probably best to close all apps and logout first)

Thats it. Navigating to System -> Preferences -> Appearance I can upgrade to extra nice effects. At the minute I am having great fun with the ‘rotating cube desktop’.
