Few days back, I bricked TP-LINK router named as TL-WR740N v4.23 when I tried to restore stock firmware from OpenWRT. Unfortunately the restoring process wasn’t work as I expected, the router dead and when I powered up, all lights are on and off simultaneously after few seconds. I waited about 1 hour but router did not respond any ip address and does not show any connections on Network And Control Center.

How to fix XFCE4 Black & White Wallpaper
After I switched some wallpapers manager apps I got the problem: XFCE4 Wallpaper only display in black and white.

Linux is on the rise in 2012
Since the late 1990s, the Linux operating system has been available to consumers free of charge and easy to use. However there still remain many people who are sceptical about switching to this operating system so here are a few reasons to consider it. As already mentioned, it is free unlike Microsoft which asks users for a fee that can even be recurring. As well as this, Microsoft can only be used on one computer, whereas Linux can be used across as many different computers as required, with no charges incurred.

Playstation One Emulation on Ubuntu x86/amd64
As you known, ePSXe (enhanced PSX emulator) and pSX are most popular Sony Playstation One Emulation. In terms of gaming capability, both emulators worked equally well, ePSXe makes use of plug-ins to emulate GPU, SPU (sound), and CD-ROM drive functions… but almost ePSXe’s plugins isn’t works on Linux Environment; pSX is a clear winner since there is really nothing much to configure, just run then play!
So, I recommend pSX as Playstation One Emulator on Ubuntu x86/amd64. Let’s install it then play your favorite PSX games.
