Swappiness
26.10.2011If your netbook is slow because it uses swap space extensively, you can lower the swappiness by changing the vm.swappiness value in /etc/sysctl.conf to ten: vm.swappiness = 10 (add the line if it does not exist)

After upgrading from Ubuntu 10.04 to Ubuntu 11.04 (via 10.10), the indicator applet from Dropbox disappeared. Got it fixed with: dropbox stop rm -r ~/.dropbox-dist dropbox start -i from here.
