View 7 Repliescan anyone please tell me which package provides the gnome system monitor applet (the one which can display cpu load and disk I/O in the tray)?I run XFCE on F14/x64 and would like to display it using the XfApplet.
What i've tried already:
*) Installed the "GNOME Desktop Environment" --> Nothing changed
*) did a yum provides "/usr/lib64/bonobo/servers/*" to check which packages are providing applets - didn't found anything which sounds like the system monitor applet
The XfApplet shows up a bunch of available applets but not the system monitor ...
Since one of the recent updates, I cannot close the System Monitor anymore. Opening it, no problem. All processes are listed just fine and I can force close anything that gives me trouble but... When I want to close System Monitor again, nothing. Qtrl + Q, the X close button at the top right, Alt + F4... all do nothing. And although each time I see some disk activity, there is nothing in the logs.
Another thing I notice is that both dbus-daemon and gnome-system-monitor use about 40% CPU time each, taking the system to 100% CPU usage all the time.Luckily, I have System Monitor open so I can select the process gnome-system-monitor from the list and hit Terminate Process. I did not find anything about it in these forums. Anyone noticed this too or am I the only one?
In the gnome-system-monitor, on the "Processes" tab in the "View" menu, I should be able to choose between "Active Processes", "All Processes", and "My Processes". The chooses are all greyed out and I am only able to view "My Processes".I launched the app as root and had the same lack of choice.I also disabled SELinux and rebooted the machine.

As a Security practice I wanted to disable X from loading.
So i modified following line from /etc/inittab.
id:3:initdefault:
I was then able to start my machine in terminal mode(runlevel 3).
I wasn't satisfied at this stage as i was able to get the graphical console by merely typing code...
Now i have made the above line commented and removed execute bit of the file .
System is now behaving as i wish it would.
I have 2 questions here.
1)Is this Method considered to be stardard while removing X in linux distro.
Will it make any difference?
I m not using any application that explicitly use graphical user interface and i can work in runlevel 3.
2)Is any package responsible for loading X .If yes then removing shall remove X from the system,correct me if i m wrong.code...
I`m running openSUSE 11.2, with GNOME 2.28 - made a fresh install.
Everything went smooth and nice, and I did not made any changes to my system, when I saw that GNOME System Monitor freezes when clicking on the "System" tab.
Does anybody know of a good alternative to gnome's system monitor? If you know of one; can you give me a link to the site?

I'm running 8.04 on my desktop system. I haven't used it in quite awhile, but I logged in today to find 100+ updates and figured I may as well update the system.
Then I realized that unlike my other Ubuntu machines, I don't have a "New distribution release is available" prompt in the update manager.
I went ahead and ran the 100 updates and rebooted and still don't see that option.
What's the best way to upgrade to 9.10?
Recently I've read an interview at Distrowatch, where a topic was the compatibility of Slackware and Zenwalk packages. My understanding was that now they should both be used in both systems.
As Slackware doesn't feature a complete GNOME distribution, my curiosity was about the ability of Zenwalk's GNOME packages play a role there. If so, the second question is how intrusive those packages are considering Slackware 13.1.
since a few days (maybe one week and after an automatic upgrade), I could see a strange behavior of gnome-system-monitor. After a boot, everything is normal. But if I log-out, and then log-in again, the problem begins. Impossible to close the gnome-system-monitor window (by clicking on the window upper-right close button). I have to terminate the process. And this process takes about 50% of CPU. In the same time, a dbus-deamon process takes the other 50%. When I terminate gnome-system-monitor process, the CPU use drops down to 6%.

I am facing problem with the fresh installation of Fedora 11. (I have moved from Fedora 9). When I try to view videos on ..... or use the Cheese Webcam Booth, I get blurred lines on the screen and I am unable to see any video or pic.
Also I noticed that the when i go to System > Preferences>Display, it shows me UNKOWN MONIOR.
However, if I got to System>Administration>Display and enter the su password, it shows me correct monitor and the graphics driver.
I am not sure if my original is related to the Unknown Monitor.
I also tried to install Nvidia driver but it crashed the xserver and I had remove the driver.
My Monitor is LG 700E and Graphics card is from intel. as I am not able watch any video.
9.10 Problem with Graphics/3D and other I have a Thinkpad T42, 1.7GHz, 1Gb Ram and a Radeon 7500 Graphics card. Everything that I am having trouble with works just fine in Ubuntu 9.04(except for the sound). There are two problems that I think are linked or really the same. First off, When I turn off Compiz(Compiz works by default) then gnome-system-monitor does not work properly. At least the graphics side of it; the window appears black with random lines running threw it. The same thing will happen to Gnome-do if Compiz is off.
The second problem is getting 3d support to work. I installed and tried to run blender and I got this from the terminal:
[Code]...
Then it ether does not open or the computer locks up completely and I have to force a shutdown. Which ever one it does I do not get my desired results. When trying to do chess in 3D it tells that I have 'No Python OpenGL support'. So I install the python-opengl package from the repositories; the program now just errors on start and I had to uninstall python-opengl to get Chess to work again. I have tried all this with Compiz on and off with the same results. Anyways thats about it, unless somebody knows how to setup the sound so a program won't lock it from other, then thats all I am having trouble with.

I am using lenovo laptop and I have docking system, to extend another monitor on my desk for display.

How to setup in fedora, so I can have both monitor display same screen, with respect of their resolution? When I click "MIrror displays" the resolution gets messed up. I want to use my monitor for the main use and close the lid of the laptop.
If I install a server edition and after that I install Gnome and all other ubuntu-desktop applications on that server. Will these
applications be supported through the whole server support time? In other words, what exactly does it mean that the server is supported for longer? Is the number or applications available to the server smaller than to the desktop?Or, similarly, could I build a Server-long supported desktop by hand?
Many people have multi-core cpus supporting frequency scaling now, if you want to see if the workload is being evenly distributed then add as many CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor applets to the Gnome panel as you have cores/cpus. Then right-click each one and select preferences and choose which cpu to monitor.
Now compile a large program or run a cpu intensive game and watch how the workload dances around between the two (hopefully)
Some clever apps like gnome chess will multi-thread and make max use of both cores, sadly many others won't.
I am using F13 on my netbook for a week so far. Its worth mention, I am completely new new to Linux. Want to say many thanks to Fedora developers for such a great OS, it makes me really happy.
Now, on the subject, I have a very small monitor 1024x576, this is causing difficulties with GIMP, and more, I found that GIMP is too much 'overfeatured' :-( . Searching on this forum , I found posts about 'Kolour' for KDE desktop. Maybe you can recommend a similar simple image editor for Gnome desktop? Crop/resize and pencil tool where i can pick up color and draw pixels will suffice most of the time.
Also I am using Firefox a lot and thought whether it possible to get a small feature , I will try to describe it: when the window is maximized I want to hide the window's header and menu, which would give me extra 40-50 pixels height to the contents of the window.
Yeah, I know I can hide navigation bar, but how then I will type the page location?
I am wondering about when Gnome 3 is released, how long until it's in the "stable" repositories?I have generally used Ubuntu, but I don't like the Unity interface they are pushing out in the next version, so I am greatly considering simply using Debian. Debian also is my first consideration because Ubuntu is based off it.But, I want to try the Gnome 3 interface first. I already have Debian installed and updated, and am now simply waiting on the GUI.

How can I know all the kernels supported by each edition of various Linux distribution? Like all the kernels supported by Red Hat Enterprise Linux U3 or Debian 5.0, or SUSE 11.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently installed FC14 on my system as I was previously on FC8. Everything seems to be working fine, but I ran into an issue today where I wanted to kill firefox. I checked in gnome system monitor and I did not see a running process for firefox or firefox-bin. I also ran a "ps -e" command from a terminal as root and did not see it there either. I don't know if this is a fedora issue or a firefox issue, so I am posting it here first.
And just to vent on something that IS a firefox issue. I have the new firefox 4 running and when I click the X in the top corner, it doesn't give me the option to save my current tabs and exit like the previous versions did. That was a feature I liked.

Is there any of them which I should not download?
