Ubuntu 14.04: Restoring Files
This is a continuation of my previous post on my install of Ubuntu 14.04. In this post, I took notes on restoring files from my backup. You can see the complete list of posts on Ubuntu 14.04 on my main install page.
Before installing, I had used Deja-Dup and duplicity to back up my laptop before I installed it. I’ll blog screenshots of backing it up eventually.

Switch Back to Bumblebee from Prime
When I first installed Ubuntu 13.10, I installed Nvidia Prime. It was easy to install and things seemed to just work at first. Now, I am having second thoughts. Bumblebee sounds like the better route for me now, and these are my notes. Switching back to Bumblebee was no trivial task though.

Ubuntu 13.04 Java
These are just some quick notes on the various Java programs that I install. I’m sorry the notes are not very complete. I’ll do better next time, but I thought these notes might still have some value.
Ubuntu 13.04: Finally Fixing my Touchpad
On my Ubuntu 13.04 installation, I have had trouble getting the touchpad to work. The driver just wouldn’t install. I finally figured it out.
Dell 1320c Laser Printer on Ubuntu 13.04
I have long wanted to get my office’s color printer working, and I think that I finally found it. The printer is a Dell 1320c and to make it a little more challenging, it’s hooked to a LinkSys PSUS4 Print Server so as to make it a network printer. Others are using it from their Windows computers in the office, but this is the first time anyone has tried with a Linux computer.
