Debian Configuration :: How To Edit Menus In XFCE

Oct 29, 2010

The default menus in XFCE don't include many things that I want to use from KDE. How can I get those on the XFCE menus? There is a so-called "menu editor" in the settings menu, but it has no documentation

Debian Multimedia :: XFCE Lost Menus And Taskbar?

Aug 12, 2011

I am using XFCE on Debian Squeeze.

Last night, when I logged in, I only got the desktop with whatever icons I have set on the desktop. The menu bar and the taskbars have disappeared completely.

Is there a way to recover this? Is this a common behaviour? I used to get this problem when I tried out QIMO.

Debian Configuration :: Remove Item From Desktop Menus

Feb 7, 2016

I am using Wheezy 7.9, Gnome Classic, gdm3 . I have two menu instances of Master PDF Editor, one instance in the Graphics menu and the other in the Office category. I have tried using Alacarte to remove one of the instances. Alacarte shows that the item has been removed but in fact it still shows up in the menu. The procedure I used was to open Alacarte as root user, delete the item, close Alacarte and re-start the computer.

Debian Configuration :: Automount In Xfce 4 Not Working?

Jun 15, 2011

I'm running Debian sid and currently have xfce 4.8.0 installed. I have the thunar-volman package and it is configured to automount everything (cdrom & usb). I have hal, udev, gamin and autofs installed as well.For some reason though, automount just isn't working. It's starting to annoy me.I can mount the devices manually.I looked around already but most posts just advise you to install hal or something.

Debian Configuration :: Jessie With XFCE - Service Fails

Feb 10, 2016

I am using Jessie with XFCE and I tried to write a service which executes a script to change my wallpaper. When I try to start the service with systemctl start wallpaper.service it fails and I get the outout below from systemctl status wallpaper.service

I don't think it to be a permissions issue, they are -rw- r-- r--

This service is called by a timer that goes off daily. Below is wallpaper.service

Debian Configuration :: Accessing Samba Share From Xfce

Feb 15, 2016

I currently have a Samba share on a Debian 7 system. This share was only ever used by Windows systems on the network.

I just finished setting up a Debian 8 system with Xfce, and now I would like to connect to the share. I already installed gvfs-backends and gvfs-bin. When I go to Thunar file manager, and click browse network, I'm presented with a "Windows Network" shortcut. When clicked it says: Failed to open "Windows Network". Failed to retrieve share list from server: No such file or directory.

Debian Configuration :: Squeeze XFCE Wicd And Wpa Encryption?

Jun 7, 2011

The laptop runs Debian Squeeze XFCE installed from the Live iso (uname -a gives 2.6.32-5-686 as the kernel) and has Wicd 1.7.0 for network management and uses the ipw2100 wifi firmware/drivers. It connects fine using WEP encryption at home and to unencrypted connections found in a couple of public areas. I have had one problem with a WEP encrypted connection in a cafe (got through encryption, but could not get an IP address. There are workarounds which I will try next time I have coffee there When changing my router to use WPA2, I get 'bad password' errors. There is quite a literature on 'bad password errors' and Wicd and kernel 2.6.32, however a lot of the pages are contradictory. The Wicd log showed this...

2011/06/07 17:25:59 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS ASSOCIATING
2011/06/07 17:26:00 :: wpa_supplicant authentication may have failed.
2011/06/07 17:26:00 :: connect result is Failed

[code]...

I'm fine using WEP at home, but I need to connect out and about as well and meet WPA2 connections in some locations

Debian Configuration :: Jessie 8.2 - GUI Update-manager XFCE Notifier

Jan 1, 2016

Since update-manager was removed from Debian Jessie, I am looking for something similar or a way to install update-manager for 8.2. I would like a GUI.

I have tried gnome-packagekit, but some of the commands don't appear to work or it seems incomplete and I don't know of a way to test to make sure that it is working.

Other sites recommended to use smartpm. However, I cannot seem to find the plugin xfce4-smartpm-plugin in [Xfce Goodies] that would work as a notifier.

Unattended-upgrades does not meet my specifications, because to my knowledge there is no GUI configuration for this.

Though Debian Jessie is a great distro, I am finding it difficult to recommend to some newer users because it does lack a GUI updater/notifier at this time.

Debian Configuration :: Wheezy Xfce 4.8 VERY SLOW First Thunar Startup

May 16, 2011

I upgraded my main PC's Xfce 4.6 to Xfce 4.8 this morning.Now, every time I start Thunar for the first time after a new boot, it takes about 30 seconds to appear, and then about 10 seconds later, a second instance of it appears.After that, Thunar appears instantly every time I start it during that same session. But if I shut-down or restart my PC, Thunar again takes about 30 seconds to start up, and a second instance of it appears about 10 seconds later.

Google searches seem to indicate that people running other distros are also experiencing this problem. On advice in a different forum, I deleted the ~/.config/Thunar folder and restarted my PC, but that didn't help -- it created a new Thunar folder, but the long delay and the double-Thunars are still there every time I run Thunar for the first time in a session.

Ubuntu :: Program To Edit Grub For Add A Picture Behind The Letters Add New Lines And Change The Name Of The Menus

Oct 29, 2010

So I've been trying to find a program to edit grub ,so that I'll be able to add a picture behind the letters add new lines,and change the name of the menus. I know in Backtrack that I used a program,I don't really remember which one it was,I think KGrubEditor,but that is a KDE app,and I cannot find a place where I could download it anyway. Do you guys know any alternative,or any way I could do this? I know how to edit grub.cfg,but I want some features besides that.

Ubuntu Security :: Installed Prixfixe Through Software Center To Edit The Menus - Restart/shutdown Buttons Didn't Work?

Jan 21, 2011

I run apache on a non standard port(82).I just installed unity to play around with it and while I was playing with it I installed prixfixe through software center to edit the menus.While prixfixe was installing my computer was acting very slow which was odd, but not completely unusual.During this time I ran ps aux which showed that my apache server was taking up most of the processing power.I was about to stop my web server,but I waited just in case the web server was updating a few things (I run ampache).

My computer finished installing the software and then I ran some command with sudo (I can't remember what the command was), but it threw back some message saying "setid blabla". I restarted my computer and when I got to my gdm my normal user account did not show up. There were no accounts and the restart/shutdown buttons didn't work.Now I'm running on a livecd and checking out my apache access logs, apache error logs,and kernel logs,but nothing looks out of place..

Debian Configuration :: XFCE Logout Doesn't Completely Logout Of System / Solution For This?

Oct 17, 2010

As a normal user I have activated the functions of the Quit applet, i.e. Logout, Shutdown and Restart are active buttons. I am able to restart or shutdown, no problems. But when I use the Logout button I don't get logged out, just returned to the login shell & I am still logged in as my user. I don't have a display manager installed and I do NOT want to use a display manager such as XDM or GDM. How do I get the Logout button to actually logout the user? It appears I am only getting logged out of the x-session, but I want complete logout.

Debian Installation :: Getting Two Grub Menus

Sep 27, 2014

I have just upgraded my Xen system from squeeze to wheezy. Things seem to have worked except for one very important problem: I'm getting two grub menus. I get one white-on-blue that comes up first. It says GNU GRUB version 1.99-27+deb7u2 at the top. (It defaults to the wrong image... but that is an issue to address later.) I choose "Xen 4.1-amd64".Then I get a second grub menu that is white on black: GNU GRUB version 1.99-27+deb7u2 at the top. I have two options "Debian GNU Linux with Xen 4.4-amd64 and Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64" and the other "Debian GNU/Linux, with Xen 4.1-amd64 and Linux 3.2.04-amd64 (recovery m->"

This is reminiscent of the cascade option from upgrading from legacy grub to grub2... but both menus say 1.99-27... so I don't know what the heck is going on here. I have tried running upgrade-from-grub-legacy and grub-install and grub-updater etc. etc... but it always comes up the same. I cannot have that. This is a server, I need it to boot to the appropriate kernel image -- and preferably with only one grub menu!Here are the grub-related packages I have installed:

Code: Select all# aptitude search grub
i   grub                                     - GRand Unified Bootloader (dummy package)           
p   grub-choose-default                      - Control Grub Default through a GUI                 
i A grub-common                              - GRand Unified Bootloader (common files)           
p   grub-coreboot                            - GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot versi
p   grub-coreboot-bin                        - GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot binar
p   grub-disk                                - GRUB bootable disk image (dummy package)
