If you are a Flickr user and want the same goodness on Linux as the Windows users get when it comes to a photo uploading tool, look no farther than Kflickr.
It supports drag-n-drop, photo editing, tagging, batch editing, rotation, and uploading to your different photosets.
It works on KDE and Gnome. Kflicker is also available in Synaptic but it is an older version so get the .deb file from the Kflicker site.

If you have ever set up a Ubuntu machine and then wanted to connect to it via VNC without having a monitor hooked up you will likely find that the resolution defaults to 640X480 which is completely useless to work on.
To fix, simply add a couple of lines to the xorg.conf file.
cd /etc/X11
sudo cp xorg.conf xorg_backup.conf
sudo gedit xorg.conf
Add the following two lines to the “Monitor” section:
HorizSync 31-101
VertRefresh 60-160
Save and restart the system.
