I am at the end of my selling odyssey and have just a few items remaining. I will say that many of the items are instructions for games I don't have, cases for games I don't have, some disk-based games that are missing disks, atari games with condition issues, connectors of many varieties, etc. Basically it is stuff I just want gone as it was for the original. There is at least one copy of Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt .

Boxes of Crap will be Large Flat Rate and cost $15. First two PayPal payments get them, will ship by next week at this time. I am still cleaning a bit. If you have dealt with me before or have my PayPal address somehow, you're in the driver's seat. If not, PM me for it and you might get lucky.

Also, if anyone is looking for Activision 2600 games, let me know. I have just unearthed a box full--didn't even know I had these. Nothing super rare.

Thanks!

Has anyone bought anything? A couple of his prices are almost reasonable even with the high ($22 for most things) cost of shipping. Thought I might treat myself to some "rarities" that are no longer really so.

I know this might be a question better asked on the Ubuntu forum and poking around there got me the answer that I needed (however inelegant), but why does every single emulator mess up my netbook's resolution when I run it in fullscreen and then exit? Sick of searching the web for answers and it's not like I am a complete dummy, but it just kind of annoying. Shouldn't they exit more gracefully?

Anyway, I have just been restoring the resolution using:

xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x600

This works fine, of course (and yes, i made a "reso" alias so I don't have to remember the command every time), but it just seems odd that this happens. Is there a better way to restore the resolution each time I play?

The backstory on this is that I am preparing for a trip and commandeered my wife's old Toshiba NB205 to use as a spiffy emulation machine. It came with Windows Starter, so that's why I've gone Ubuntu on it and it runs great for the most part. It's just this one thing bugging me and I had this dream of letting my Dad play on it with the USB Atari sticks, but it will freak him out if the resolution goes weird on him. He is not a computer expert. But he does love Atari!

Any help from gurus appreciated.

All I want is for my wife to be able to watch stupid cat videos and such on YouTube from the main Wii channel screen. I have searched for a forwarder channel for my homebrew'ed Wii because I know one exists but all the links are broken or to stupid YouTube videos of l33t hackzoroz dudes who have installed it on their Wii and don't want to provide a .wad link because they are the only ones kewl enuf to have it. I don't have time for this...stuff. I am old and cranky and the abuses of the English language I am seeing searching old forum posts are also giving me heartburn.

Yes, I know the forwarder just redirects to the YouTubeXL page via Opera. That's what I want. All links I have found are dead. If someone has a moment to PM me with help you would become one of my favorite people. Instantly.
