Madcatz R.A.T.5 Mouse on Debian 7 Freezes – Fixed

Fixed – the RAT5 mouse gets “stuck” in one window, or freezes entirely. The only way to get unstuck seems to be toggling the Mode button. Even when that gets you unstuck, it will happen again, and seems to progressively get worse with time.

9 Steps To Setup SSL on UBUNTU 12.04 APACHE 2.22

I found a lot of misleading and confusing How-To stuff when installing an SSL certificate on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Apache 2.22. I also share most people confusion when it comes to encryption.
