View 8 Replieshow to detect if a file is being opened by any application so that i can block it just before opening it... Actually i am working on android and using iNotify in JNI to detect the OPENING of a file...but the file is getting opened before the iNotify detects it..and therefore its displaying the contents of the file unmodified .. The actual requirement is that if anyone is trying to open the file it should be modified by my program and then the modified file should be opened.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am using ubuntu 10.04 and after installing some programs using the package manager I try to open the program and all I get is the title bar and a blank white screen. I searched the forums and found a thread from awhile back saying to create a new user and see if it persists. I tried that and it does the same thing in the new user. One in particular is gnucash. The program sometimes works but the tutorial does the white screen. I also reinstalled the package several times with no luck. Other packages do the same thing like thunderbird.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'd like to build a .deb file which will contain my Perl program. I just want it to be deployed with dpkg -i on debian systems later. So it's just a matter of having the good arborescence in my .deb package. For that purpose, in the debian/rules file, I'm declaring some dh_install lines in the install rule.
My issue is that I know how to achieve my goal, but only with writing a ton of dh_install lines (one line, for one file...)
example :
clean:
dh_testdir
dh_clean
install: build

I have this problem, however the solution given there is outdated- There is no such menu entry (I tried to see if it was disabled, but it wasn't in the menu editor either).
So how would I do this in Karmic?
Edit: I found it. As a reference: Open Nautilus, go to Edit-> Preferences -> "Media" tab -> Photos -> Your choice.

I am trying to use Firefox to open a *.csv file from a download button on a Web page. The download button would open a dialog that offers me to choose to either open the file with Open Office Calc or save the file. I would like to open it on the fly. But an error comes up that reads:
Code:
/tmp/HIST1031-4.csv could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences.
The helper application in Firefox's Edit > Preferences is Open Office Calc. I checked in /usr/lib/openoffice.org3/program/, and found the script for scalc.
