I purchased a used ION TTUSB Turntable, which was manufactured in 2007. My experience with this turntable has been nothing but positive, and I highly recommend it for anyone who needs an affordable turntable with a quality sound output. I have been using Debian Linux since 2006. This turntable is a great option for Linux users for transferring your record collection to a digital format. Audacity audio processing software was originally included with the TTUSB turntable, and...
After recently upgrading my Linux OS from Squeeze to Wheezy, I needed to re-setup my email, again. My Internet provider is Time Warner Cable ("TWC") with their RoadRunner ("RR") service. Debian uses Evolution for the default email access. Initially, I thought I would search the Internet for the setup instructions, and quickly discovered it was pretty much a waste of time.

Next, copy the .so file to the following folder: usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
I had a need to get the Img2pdf software from www.freshmeat.net to run on my Debian 3.1 (Sarge) linux machine. This software is used to convert a folder of single page image files to a single pdf document. Installing the img2pdf software turned out to be a very difficult task for me since I am not familiar with programming. The hardship could have been significantly reduced if better installation documentation were available, but that did not appear to be the case. Since I was able to successfully...
