My WordPress plugins Q2-2015 update
this season I will delete several of my WordPress plugins from the plugin repository.
The reason is that some of these plugins were made for Internet explorer 6-9, which were ,mostly used on windows XP. Since XP is no longer supported, and the plugins haven’t been updated for years I’ve decided to abandon them.
The following plugins are no more:
- Headjs-plus
- ie9-mode
- ie7-js
- Genesis-Footer-Widgets
replaced by Genesis Widgetized Footer - eBay
- Imagelens
this plugin has been adopted - Opera Speed Dail
Obsolete since Opera works on Chromium - jQuery-Mobile
will be integrated into jQuery Updater - jQuery-Color
will be integrated into jQuery Updater - Has.js
Support
I also added the wordpress.org support forms to my daily notification this. This means when someone posts a question about one of my plugins, I will get notified. I aim to respond within 2 days. In the past most messages were never seen. On the other hand, I will decrease my support when you send me an email.
Ubuntu Linux Kernel 4.0 installation guide
This short walkthrough describes how to install the Ubuntu Linux Kernel 4.0 (server and desktop/client) without compiling.
This guide should work with the latest version of Ubuntu Linux and most Ubuntu-based distributions including Mint. The included kernel files have been compiled using the generic Ubuntu configuration. The general packages are available for 32 bits systems (I386+) and 64 bits (AMD64) and ARMHF. I will not provide low latency versions.
Installation Guide (GUI)
- Download the kernel headers package:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.0-vivid/linux-headers-4.0.0-040000_4.0.0-040000.201504121935_all.deb - And the appropriate package for your system
- AMD64:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.0-vivid/linux-headers-4.0.0-040000-generic_4.0.0-040000.201504121935_amd64.deb - I386:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.0-vivid/linux-headers-4.0.0-040000-generic_4.0.0-040000.201504121935_i386.deb - ARMHF:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.0-vivid/linux-headers-4.0.0-040000-generic_4.0.0-040000.201504121935_armhf.deb
- AMD64:
- And the accompanying compiled kernel image
- AMD64:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.0-vivid/linux-image-4.0.0-040000-generic_4.0.0-040000.201504121935_amd64.deb - I386:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.0-vivid/linux-image-4.0.0-040000-generic_4.0.0-040000.201504121935_i386.deb - ARMHF:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.0-vivid/linux-image-4.0.0-040000-generic_4.0.0-040000.201504121935_armhf.deb
- AMD64:
- Install the files in the same order as downloaded above. So first install the headers (2 files) and finally the image (1 file).
- In the terminal run:
sudo update-grub - Reboot and select the kernel from the bootloader menu
I will post the latest version of the 4.0 branch and 4.1 release candidates in comments below.
