[SOLVED] Ubuntu: Fixing messed up screen resolution

If you messed up with your display resolution try this:

To configure the monitor and display adapter, you need to re-configure
your Xorg server. To do that, first backup your xorg.conf file by
executing the following command:

   # sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup

then, stop X by executing the following command (this will put you to
text only mode):

   # sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop

You can do the whole X configuration process by executing:

   # sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

Once you have re-configured Xorg,  start GNOME again by executing this
command:

   # sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

[SOLVED] Chrome: How to change the default language (UI) in chrome

Normally you should find this option in “Under the Hood” tab but if have no such option do type

chrome://settings/languages

in to address bar and choose your preferred UI language.

then you must restart your Google Chrome Browser

 

Tested with chrome v13.0.782.220 m and v15.0.871.1 canary

[SOLVED] Chrome: How to switch the User agent of the browser?

you can pass the user agent string in the command line

for example, this is how to make chrome report itself as IE8.0 on my machine
C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe –user-agent=”Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; Trident/4.0; Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1) ; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)”

so basically just add –user-agent=”what ever you want to impersonate to” to the target in the shortcut to chrome
and launch chrome using that shortcut!
