As I updated my Ubuntu 8.04 kernel to 2.6.24-23, my dual-screen setting got mess up. This seems to be a common problem but the exact solution is not clear at this point. I here provide the procedure that worked on my system. I have tried several procedures found on the webs but none of them worked out. The direction, through, was to install the drivers manually. I was able to do that but I kept encountering an error message when I run nvidia-settings: You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. I thought the problem has something to do with the xorg.conf. Luckily, I was able to find the very one version before I ran kernel update. It was renamed as xorg.conf.1. I replaced my xorg.conf with this version and started the following steps.

I am using OO.o on an Ubuntu PC. Here is the good fonts for equations typed in MATH. Commands to adjust font property: bold italic nbold -- switch bold off nitalic-- switch italic off Still need to verify: whether this will also look ok on a Windows PC. Some information for MATH: a look-up table from  Jeff Hoogland

Trying to use Octave to substute Matlab/Scilab. Its manual can be found here . Here are some tips: 0. Add my m files to current path use path to display the current searching path copy my m file directory to /usr/share/octave/3.0.0/m/, where it will automatically load once octave is started. 1. Change text size: text(10, 2, '{\fontsize {18} Whatever }') legend('{\fontsize {24} legend item 1}') 2. Change text style xlabel( '{ \bf label name for x}'), where \bf stands for bold fonts \it stands for italic font \sl stands for oblique font \rm stands for normal font 3. Output option: print ("print_this.png", "-dpng", "-landscape") print ("print_this.ps", "-dpsc", "-landscape")

用OO.o開html表格會有中文顯示成亂碼的問題，例如本校的付款資料。目前解決的方法： Save the html file and open it with Firefox Select the entire html document and Copy it. Open a new html document in OO.o Paste the copied html document to OO.o. The table and Chinese characters should be displayed in the right way. Select the table only and Copy it. Open a new spreadsheet in OO.o and paste the copied table 這樣利用Firefox開啟，解決中文顯示問題，利用OO.o的html編輯能力，把資料轉成OO.o的Calc試算表格式。
