I had Slackware 12 on my computer for awhile with no problems. Then I tried Ubuntu and did not stick with it very long so I went back to Slack 13. Now my sound works but only one program at a time can use it. How do i fix this? I will be listening to a song and have firefox open on youtube and it wont play the youtube sound.

Today is my last day of employment at Sun (well, it became Oracle on March 1st in the UK but you know what I mean). I am a few months short of my 10th anniversary there (I joined at JavaOne in 2000) and my 5th anniversary as Chief Open Source Officer. I hope youll forgive a little reminiscence.
I'm just a desktop end user; On line banking, email, Youtube, IM, music, etc. The regular stuff. Can I get rid of Python? I don't program anything. Don't plan on it. Never gave it even a fleeting thought. Do I need it?
Does any other program or app depend on Python? Can I make a clean sweep of it? And if I can, what's the best way of doing it?
Tired of not knowing anything except Windows. Bought a Dell mini with Ubuntu 8.04 installed on it and I'm working on learning Unix from the command line. This Forum ought to be helpful once I get a little further along.
wondering what I need to do to make my VI scripts better formatted. The colorized commands, etc.., and the indents where necessary. Hope this question makes sense.
