Solaris and libcrypt

Solaris 10 and libcrypt

As a reminder to myself, when you need to build something on Solaris and you get the following error:

fatal: libcrypt_d.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory

Then you need to install the Solaris 10 Encryption Kit (link)
File: sol-10-encrypt-GA-iso.zip

Just install the 3 packages from the iso and install them.

xubuntu no window titles etc

On the kids laptop the Xubuntu session was seriously broken. Of course it being the kids laptop it's a bit mess anyway.
So I try to fix it - because it's *urgent* - they want to use tuxpaint. After moving and fiddling with the ~/.config directory and try one or two other things, it turns out it is as easy as removing the session cache.

rm -rf ~/.cache/sessions/*
