Linux Mint 12

By K -
Yesterday I installed new Linux Mint with Gnome 3 user interface and Mint extensions.
For now it really feels like Gnome 2 UI. There are differences of course, but they really make Gnome Shell more friendly!

I have some problems, one of them is still not fixed, I even don't know how to search for a fix.

After creation of USB drive i have error after boot:
"vesamenu.c32: not a COM32R image"

1: hit TAB button
2: type "Live" in console

Then I find impossible to install Chrome in Linux Mint 12:

1: Install Chromium
2: Install Chrome

It looks like new Mint doesn't have something important that Chrome needs, fortunately Chromium installs it, and this is enough for me to now that now it just works :)

Last problem is probably caused by video drivers. I use two monitors, on Laptop and second attached to VGA port.
This is strange but after blocking screen I have problem with the screen in Laptop. It fills with gray noise and is unusable :/

It happened only two times, I try to restart Shell.

Ctrl+r, and then r should restart gnome-shell interface.

How to simulate slow connection (developer proxy in Node.js)

Update: If you use Chrome then you can use "Throttling" so simulate slow network for all your assets. This should be easier than proxy. Toggle device mode   Choose Network type. Refresh the page https://developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/device-mode  Proxy: For some time I wanted to use some proxy for development and testing of eg. slow internet connection, but it was hard to find something useful and free. I know there is Charles but buy it to use it at most one in a month is not for me. I started thinking about Node.js, maybe I can write proxy for me? But fortunately I found one. https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy With this module I can write really short code to create slow server: var http = require('http'), httpProxy = require('http-proxy'); httpProxy.createServer(function (req, res, proxy) { var buffer = httpProxy.buffer(req); setTimeout(function () { proxy.proxyRequest(req, res, { host:

Safari Mobile CSS VW and VH units bug.

Recently we have created new version of mobil.aftenposten.no but soon after serving it to some users we spot this tweet:  https://twitter.com/Al3x4nd3rR/status/452047498111369216 . Basically titles were missing.... Then it started our effort to reproduce this bug. ... It was nightmare! First how to reproduce it: Open  http://krzychukula.github.io/vw_bfcache/  in Mobile Safari.  Click "Go to another page" link Leave phone for 60 seconds (longer is better) Click back button If you were lucky you should see some missing paragraphs and missing green boxes. How it looks: Bug: This one uses vw and vh for font-size. Both are 0 so we can see only 2 from 8 paragraphs. Those two are using only em for font-size. I was curious if it's only for font-size so I have added another test. I have added two boxes with width and height set in vw and vh with green background color. They parents have red background for contrast.  Most of t
