3.2gb Out Of 4.0gb 16.04
I hope I'm putting this on the right website. I'm not completely use to terminal commands, so sorry if I put the wrong ones. I upgraded from 2gb to 4gb DDR2 RAM. In bios, it shows up with the full 4096 (4gb), but in Ubuntu 16.04 it only sees 3.2gb. Output of free -m: free -m total used free shared b...
Mount Google Drive and Dropbox to system (only online)
No, there isn't. Dropbox has an official sync client for Linux and Google Drive has also an unofficial one, so both can be easily used in a Linux system. However, sync always means copying the contents to the synced local folders, hence using at least as much space. Let's block ads! (Why?)

How can I use Unijoy Old Style typing in Ubuntu 14.04?
The post is about Bengali typing using Bijoy Layout in Ubuntu. Unijoy in Avro is deprecated. But it's still available to use in Ubuntu. As an old school Bijoy layout user, I tend to use the Old Style typing using Avro, but not in Phonetic — using Unijoy, plus the Old Style typing - which is availabl...
