Desktop manager examples: Gnome, Unity. Display manager examples: GDM, LightDM.   What is the split in responsibilities of these two types of managers? What functions do they each provide? And are they both dependent on X server, in what way?  Thanks
I'm having a really hard time trying to understand what the differences between a desktop environment and a window manager are?  EDIT: From this :  There are basically three layers that can be included in the Linux desktop: X Windows – This is the foundation that allows for graphic elements to be drawn on the display.  builds the primitive framework that allows moving of windows, interactions with keyboard and mouse, and draws windows. This is required for any graphical desktop. Window Manager – The Window Manager is the piece of the puzzle that controls the placement and appearance of windows. Window Managers include: , , , , , etc. Requires X Windows but not a desktop environment. Desktop Environment – This is where it begins to get a little fuzzy for some. A Desktop Environment includes a Window Manager but builds upon it. The Desktop Environment typically is a far more fully integrated system than a Window Manager. Requires both X Windows and a Window Manager.  Examples of desktop environments are , , ,  among others)
Example of a finitely generated faithful torsion module over a commutative ring Can a finitely generated module $M$ over a commutative ring have $\operatorname{Ann}(x) \neq 0$ for all $x \in M$ while $\operatorname{Ann}(M) = 0$?  It's not difficult to show that there is no such module if the ring is a integral domain. For general, I guess the answer is yes. But I failed to find a desired example. I am trying to calculate the following limit without Stirling's relation.  \begin{equation} \lim_{n \to \infty} \dfrac{n!}{n^n} \end{equation} I tried every trick I know but nothing works. Thank you very much. How Do You Use An Image As The World Background? How many $m\times n$ tables are there if they are subject to the following two conditions?    In each cell of the table we have $1$ or $-1$. The product of all the cells in any given row and the product of all cells in any given column equals $-1$.    I already know if Parity of $m$ and $n$ are different there is no such a table. what is the answer in general? Why can a function modify some arguments as perceived by the caller, but not others?

Do synonyms have exactly the same meanings as each other in all contexts? I have a question about synonyms: I'm wondering for quite a while if synonyms always stand exactly for the same thing. Is there sometimes a little difference in meaning? Let's use clumsy and clunky for example. Can I always replace clunky with clumsy? Since I'm not a native speaker, as you may have noticed, I cannot tell them apart. According to my dictionary, they mean exactly the same. Is it always true?  If the question has already been ask, sorry I couldn't find it.  Edit: Thank you very much! Every answer has helped a lot and thank you so much for it. I really appreciate it. I've voted all your answer because every answer helped me in a different way. I've accepted Barrie England's answer because it was the best one in my case. But all of yours were really good and helpful :) Original  The remainder provided by polynom.sty is NOT complete (as shown in the following figure).      My Objective  When I was in senior high school, my teacher made the diagram like below. :-)  Thus the final step must show the TOTAL remainder and mark it with L-shaped curve.  NOTE  I am sorry. The previous post I forgot to put back -1/4 in the original position. It have made you confused.

Which is grammatically correct?       At which time will you call me?     At what time will you call me?    And why? The question of whether P=NP is perhaps the most famous in all of Computer Science. What does it mean? And why is it so interesting?  Oh, and for extra credit, please post a proof of the statement's truth or falsehood. :) Metadata and appstream Error while Updating I am getting an error while updating as a root. After Update log below error was shown in terminal.   AppStream system cache was updated, but problems were found: Metadata files have errors: /var/cache/app-info/xmls/fwupd.xml Reading package lists... Done E: Problem executing scripts APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success 'if /usr/bin/test -w /var/cache/app-info -a -e /usr/bin/appstreamcli; then appstreamcli refresh-cache &gt; /dev/null; fi' E: Sub-process returned an error code   I followed  answer and executed sudo apt install appstream/xenial-backports.  My appstream package is already updated:-  $ appstreamcli --version AppStream CLI tool version: 0.10.6   After, force refreshing the cache data. I am getting the following error:-  $ sudo appstreamcli refresh --force AppStream system cache was updated, but problems were found: Metadata files have errors: /var/cache/app-info/xmls/fwupd.xml Group cohomology is one thing I don't seem to get my head around.  I understand $H^0$ as being the "fixed points" but when it comes to anything higher I have no idea what the notions are meant to be capturing...if anything.  For example I can see that 1-cocycles are homomorphisms with a specific property but that property doesn't seem to mean anything to me...and I think it should!  Is there an intuition or example that explains the meaning or is it just something that "stuck" and seems to work in lots of places? Why didn't the basilisk bite in Chamber of Secrets destroy the Horcrux? As the title asks, why didn't the basilisk bite received in the Chamber of Secrets destroy the Horcrux inside the bitten person?   Yes, I know Fawkes quite quickly healed the bite wound with his phoenix tears, but when Harry used the basilisk fang to destroy Tom Riddle's diary the destruction of that Horcrux was immediate. When Ron hit the locket with the Sword of Gryffindor, it was destroyed immediately. Although the destruction of the ring occurred off-page, Dumbledore used the Sword of Gryffindor to destroy it, so presumably, like the locket, it was gone right away. Nagini died straightaway when Neville decapitated her. The destruction of the Hufflepuff cup happens off-page. The diadem seems to have been destroyed by Fiendfyre immediately as well, as when Harry examined it outside the Room of Requirement it was already leaking a blood-like substance, and then it cracked in half. When Voldemort hit Harry with Avada Kedavra in the forest, Harry woke up in limbo with the last fragment of Voldemort's soul - that awful flayed baby-like being - separated from him immediately.   Is there a logical/canon-based explanation for why the fragment of Voldemort's soul residing in Harry wasn't destroyed upon Harry being bitten by the basilisk?  NOTE: I've read the HP Wiki's entry on Horcruxes; however, I find the HP Wiki to be inconsistent in its accuracy, so I'm hesitant to accept the Wiki's explanation on the matter. I'd prefer an explanation constructed from information in the books or a statement by JKR, or the like. Shape of the universe? BJT as a switch: what am I doing wrong? How can I remove the new weather information from the taskbar?
