New netinstall of AMD64 Jessie and using xfce4
I cannot find Print Settings which is usually listed under Settings and I have looked elsewhere in case it has been placed somewhere different and can find no trace of Print Settings.
I have checked synaptic and there are many installed apps listed under 'print' and 'cups'
after an upgrade today (it's been about a week since last upgrade), synaptics forgot all settings I've set in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi, although the file is still there. I can re-enable the desired settings via gsynaptics (more or less, because gsynaptics doesn't give me the option of two finger horizontal scrolling but that's no big deal), however after a restart it forgets the settings as well. There are some synaptics-related errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, but I don't understand them. Here's the snippet (the second half is maybe not synaptics-related but mouse-related, I'm not sure):
(II) config/udev: Adding input device "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" (/dev/input/event8)
(II) LoadModule: "synaptics"

I installed Debian Squeeze (6) yesterday and noticed on the XFCE4 Setting Manager screen, there is no icon showing next to the Screensaver item. All other icons are present. Am I missing a file or package perhaps?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI tried out the 10.04 beta in VirtualBox, and the tab for Interface in Appearance Settings was gone. This tab allowed you to edit the appearance of Toolbars in Ubuntu. You could edit whether Icons showed up in the toolbar buttons and whether Text shows up beside it. This is kind of a minor annoyance for me; is there any way to edit this option outside of the appearance settings? I'm sure there is (like editing some config file or GConf), but I'm not sure where.

View 1 Replies View RelatedA couple of weeks ago I installed openSUSE 11.3/KDE 4.4.4 over openSUSE 11.0/KDE 3.5. It went well except for what turned out to be a glitch with the KDE default Plasma Desktop Workspace, which prevented the system from shutting down (the screen would go blank and then nothing would happen). Changing the Activity in the Desktop Settings to Folder View got rid of the glitch, returning everything to normal.
The printer icon/widget is now a question mark "?." I can't say for certain when this happened.Clicking on the widget produces the message, "KDEint could not launch 'opt/kde3/bin/startprint'."The command for the widget is 'opt/kde3/bin/startprint %U'.The file opt/kde3/bin/startprint no longer exists.What additional information, if any, might be needed, and what can be done to get this widget working again?

When I print a form in PDF format the top 5 or so inches of the page is missing, when I view the page in Print preview the top of the page is not showing either. I need to print and send away this form asap. I just seen the bottom 5 inches of the page is missing as well
View 1 Replies View RelatedAfter upgrade to ghostscript 9.02 from current all print jobs fail with: 'There is a missing print filter for printer HP_F2480'
The printer is an All-inone deskjet F2480 and the cups printer queue has been
setup with the hplip tools. Before the upgrade it was 'working' with quite a few bugs...eg image not printed correct, multipage printing garbage. (page for page printing was the workaround)
Do I need to remove the printer and define it again?
This is awesome. I configured my Konsole and other KDE settings, and the very next login everything is reverted.

View 2 Replies View RelatedLooks like I finally have the time to install Squeeze in the next few days. I have the DVDs here and ready to go! Once I finish housekeeping and do multiple backups, I'll be ready to have a go at this I would like to transfer the settings stored in /home from Hardy to Squeeze. Can I just copy and paste? Or will the difference between the two make that risky (or impossible). I am especially concerned about .gnome and .gnome2. I really don't want to have to reconfigure everything from scratch but I also don't want the file transfer to break things.
I would also like some advice about the install. It would be safest to unplug the three active drives, hook up the new 1TB and install / and /home partitions without the possibility of disaster. However, I eventually want to dual boot with the Hardy install. When I reconnect the Hardy disk, will Squeeze find Hardy if I sudo update-grub? Hardy is in ext3 and boots with Grub legacy. Do I need an MBR or is it OK to just boot from Squeeze's /.
Searching for what appears to be "missing" CompizConfig settings in the CompizConfig Settings Manager.

noticed that Fedora 12 made some odd design decisions for default GNOME settings, and I couldn't locate the System->Preferences->Windows menu item to change them back. The design options I'm talking about:
* No icons in menus (System menu for instance has no icons, though there are icons under the Preferences and Administration sub-menus... the root System menu though has none)
* Icons on toolbars are configured so the label text appears to the right of the buttons, so this makes File Explorer in Nautilus look funny to me. I like the text appearing beneath the icons like it has always been up until now.
why the Windows configuration has been removed from Fedora 12? The control-center package provides the bins for all the preferences items except for gnome-window-settings; so is it upstream that did this? Anyway, I had to dig around in the gconf-editor to find where the window settings are kept so I could change them "manually", since the Windows tool is gone now. For anyone else who wants to know, it's under /desktop/gnome/interface in the gconf-editor (namely, keys toolbar_style, buttons_have_icons, and menus_have_icons are the ones I changed).
I have LTS 10.04 with firefox 3.63 and the cookie settings are not there. Does anyone else have missing privacy settings. I dont like the idea of tracking cookies and want to do what I can to get rid of them.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just updated to Ubuntu 10.04 and am in love with it. However, when I tried to restore everything I had on my compiz, I realized that a integral part for me was missing. The "maximumize" feature is gone. This is the feature that makes a window fill up all the space it can without interfering with other windows, essentially making it like the windows 7 tiling feature, only better since you can do it with multiple windows and in any way you want. This was in the compiz settings manager in 9.10.

Seems that i have totally ****ed up my sony vaio (vgn-fz21z). I've been doing some partitioning and formatting without really knowing what i was doing. Now it is a mess.The vaio comes with pre-installed windows vista, which is no longer installed. I want it to be.Ubuntu 10.4 is installed. In grub I can choose vista but that is only vaio recovery tool. Which is not working. When I try the format cption and take it all back to the original settings, it says that c: is too small or missing.
I also have some cd:s with windows 7 and xp on, but they can't be read. Now the vaio is not even accepting my ubuntu live-cd. I have nothing of importance on the computer, so there would be no problem re-formatting the whole thing. Can it be done? I would prefer is the vaio recovery tool could be left untouched, it has its own partition. I guess I'm asking: is there a way from inside ubuntu to make a total system re-installation, get rid of different partitions and reconstruct c:, so win can be installed again?
Using the mini.iso netinst image, when installing the the base system I get the following error:
Debootstrap error, the following error occurred: bzcat is not available on the system. Check vt4 for details, etc, etc.
Usually I have no issue at all installing a barebones sid system, but over the last week I've had the same error over and over.
The issue appears to of been resolved. I guess something server side was tweaked.
