Easystroke is a life saver. I’m running it on my Eee PC t91 and the most vital stroke is to generate a right-click (button 3).

The other coolest thing about Easystroke is that you can add exceptions (disable it) for specific apps (like cellwriter, GIMP, etc.) where I obviously don’t want to be triggering anything via Easystroke while I’m doodling or spelling words. Unfortunately I can’t get compiz working on this machine, although compiz didn’t work at all in the Ubuntu Netbook Remix prior to Karmic anyway, so it’s no big loss. I just want a nice Humanity icon for Easystroke

iampriteshdesai – Easiet way would be to plug the Hard Drive into another PC with windows and use R-studio or some data recovery app. R-studio is the best I have found, it will find your data on lost partitions. You can possibly use an external/usb device so you can plug your HD into another working PC. I hope this helps, I hate to see people loose their data.

I’m not sure how to go about recovering data when the whole partition is gone, but until you figure it out make sure you don’t write to the disk which could cause the data to be overwritten.

I think I will use this to bring firefox like gestures to the desktop. Like Alt-Tab and Shift-Alt-Tab, Close an application.
Thank your for this great intro!

Now in reality the C: and E: drive are residing on the same physical drive and Ubuntu erased E: drive too. I have lost all my vacation photos, documents,Mp3′s etc. Plzhelp me. What can I do?
Plz!
