GIMP : increase friggin small fonts on menu

 This addon works! Just put it into your plug-ins folder. To find your plug-ins folder : run GIMP then  Edit > preferences > Folders > Plug-ins 

Solution works on windoze10 as well 

[Win10] Unable to rename files mounted under NFS (invalid device error)

 Some solution (tested on ancient ReadyNAS) : mount using the "full" NFS share of the server - again in the case of ReadyNAS :  I used to mount the shares as  \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\data (xxx=IP of the NAS) the correct is : \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\c\data (as on the NAS drive!) 

YMMV!

Windows 8+10 and US keyboard layout (SDL bug).

I have to say I am pissed off, as some apps (see: fucking buggy SDL) adds the US keyboard layout.
Also, I just noticed, that some extensions of Firefox, add this layout too!

Well, I found a solution, in my case I m using the UK layout, so run the regedit then:

go to HKLM  > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Control > Keyboard Layouts > 00000409

then edit the "Layout File" from KBDUS.DLL to KBDUK.DLL (or whatever is your preferable layout)

SDL bug(?)


I have to say that was a bit strange... from time to time I noticed a US keyboard layout on the language bar (under win8 pro x64). After a little tracking I discovered that it was caused by SDL applications (like a special SVN build of DOSBox, or viceSDL (c= emulator)).

Temp solution:

rename the 
HLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Keyboard Layouts\00000409 (ie the US) to 00000409a 

workaround is not working.. I still have the f* additional keyboard

UPDATE:

Its a BUG! (and I don't think it will be fixed soon... )
