You know, the really simplistic one where all you have is your files, folders, menu and a bar at the bottom with your normal filename/size/other jazz and the handy navigation button thingy? I really liked it, I swear when I went from Ubuntu to Fedora back in the F10 days I thought that was one of the coolest things.
I've been an ubuntu user for a while, and just started trying out fc15. In nautilus, there used to be an "emblems" side panel, as well as an emblems tab in the file properties window. (emblems being the little overlays you could assign to files or folders, like a tick or a cross or a smiley fdace or whatever). Is there some package I need to install to get this functionality back? Has it never been present in fedora, or is it a change in gnome3 / fc15?
Fedora 12 works well on my Acer 5920g laptop. However, about 5 minutes after switch-on, the fan comes on. Especially since the sensor output shows the system is still very cool:
[code]...
Once on, the fan almost never turns off. The system is not loaded at all, almost totally idle according to top.
The breadcrumbs bar has disappeared in Nautilus and has been replaced with just the text location instead. A clean install showed me that breadcrumbs should still be there, but I cannot seem to get them back anyway.
Nautilus goes back and forward with alt-left and alt-right.
Just like firefox only firefox responds to my corresponding mouse buttons.
How can I get Nautilus to do that?
If I can't get Nautilus itself to do that, I thought I could bind the buttons to alt-left and alt-right in CCSM. But I don't know how to enter keystrokes as a command.
I was transferring data from one computer to my laptop and crash error came up on my laptop...
Error 1:
Nautilus-2.32.0-1.fc14 Reason: Process/usr/bin/nautilus was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV)
Error 2:
Openoffice.Org-Brand Crash
Reason: Process/usr/lib/openoffice.org3/program/soffice.bin was killed by signal (SIGABRT)
What could be the problem? Is it serious issue? I have been having security issues with Windows and are those issues begun once again? I have been under targeted attack since 2005.
Can anyone recommend a really cool music player (like real player equivalent of Linux) and super cool DvD player?
I am also looking for a video editor, any suggestions? there are really thousands of software to scour around, many of them don't even have rating, I want to know ubuntuforums users'.
I have ubuntu studio 10.10, and I had to reinstall because of video issues, so I just re did it to wipe it clean and start all over with the install. Before, I had the cool effect when I dragged the window from one screen to the next it stretch the window like it was springy, and snapped onto the next monitor.
I have downloaded, compiz and compiz config settings manager as well as emerald theme manager. I selected the 3d cube and wobbly windows, water fx and several other, but the 3d cube doesnt show up as such and the neat snap that I described that I had before, doesnt work either . Right now I have my XFX Radeon HD 5770 vid card prop driver disabled.
Any clues as to why as the website: [URL].. shows that beautiful cube fx in the center of the window, wont occur on my screen? And where did that cool fx go that when I drag the window over to the other screen it's just a basic drag and not the wobbly/stretchy thing?
How do people say a distro is cool .I don't find anything cool in slackware.I did teach me how to connect to internet and I learned some commands .Sorry if i were wrong and I welcome anyone to show the path of how to learn a linux inside out.
My MBP 5,3 running 64bit 9.10 gets rather hot during use. If I touch the case near the left speaker and along the top by the screen it is sometimes almost too hot to touch. It gets that hot that when I have shut the MBP down I don't close the lid as I am scared that the hot case will damage the screen when closed together!I'm scared I'm gonna cook the laptop or an egg on it.I've been reading some of the posts regarding this mentioning scripts and being able to alter the fan speeds to hopefully solve this problem. I'm still new to linux and I don't have a problem running or installing scripts but I need the confidence to do it knowing I am not going to cook the laptop.
1, Can someone point me in the right direction with regards to a linux app (gui if possible) that I can run that will show me fan speed and cpu temp also the graphics card temp if possible? 2, What script do I need to run to cool the laptop down?

Some of you might have seen my thread about Gnome 3. My desktop and windows were a mess after Gnome 3, and I couldn't restore it back to Gnome 2 for some reason. I decided to check out Ubuntu Studio because I am a guitar player. I want to be able to record, but the desktop in ubuntu studio is stunning. It isn't graphically stunning, like ubuntu running Gnome 2 or 3, but it is simple. Everything is easy to get to and no nonsense. It is a joy to use.
If they improve the looks of the desktop and menus, I would be EXTREMELY happy. The look isn't that impressive, but the ease of use is great. One thing I noticed is that the average CPU usage went down when I switched to ubuntu studio. In regular ubuntu, my CPU would be using 15%-20% of its power when I wasn't running anything. In ubuntu studio, it is between 8%-13%.
I am pretty pleased with Ubuntu Studio. I am glad I made the switch. I just would like it to be a little more visually impressive.
i need to install Cool'n'Quiet driver for my CPU? Or, do I need to enable the same from my BIOS? If I enable it in Bios, will my Windows installation will be affected although I'm not using it for general purpose. It's there only for games.

I'm on Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit with Gigabyte GA-k8n51gmf-9 with AMD 64. what is the advantage of Cool'n'Quiet driver.
I have just installed the globalmenu to my system. Everything worked fine and updated. Now the problem is that the menu does not show up. Weird... Any alternatives for a cool looking menu bar like the mac OS lepord?
Is it possible to change my current nautilus window to have sudo capabilities,? e.g. to delete locked files. It may be lazy but if it takes a lot of navigation then it would be handy to somehow activate sudo from the open window without the terminal command (gksudo nautilus) which always begins at root.
I attempted to install Nautilus Elementary...the results were not what I expected however. First of all, it doesn't seem to even have installed correctly, but thats not the main issue...after installing, Nautilus looks like this...
I've added a new Nautilus action and I'd like to use another icon that those provided in the nautilus item con list (see attachment).
But whatever image I try (some PNG or even SVG files) I can't get them to be displayed. It seems there is a very special format, size, type to match the Gnome/GTK+/Nautilus icon requirements...
Does anyone know how I can move the location bar in nautilus up by the toolbar, as shown by this pic: http://i39.tinypic.com/2qdsyll.jpg
I'd rather not have to download the source of nautilus and edit the code / compile it myself.
By the way, a guy on Ubuntu Forums thought this was a mockup. It's not. It's the regular version of Nautilus, only I removed some toolbar buttons through the /usr/share/nautilus/ui xml files.
I just want the location bar next to the toolbar to conserve screen space, and be a bit more like Finder.
I installed easytag via yum and it installed and worked fine. Then shortly after that I went to "Places" > "Home Folder" and when I clicked on Home Folder, instead of nautilus loading easytag loads.I removed easytag and the problem went away.
Then yesterday I went to play an mp3 in totem and got the message about the codec being missing. I used the automatic search that tries to find the right packages and solve the problem and installed the required packages to get the mp3's to play. Then when I click on "Home Folder" it launches totem and tries to open all files in my home directory.
Following a smaller problem I uninstalled Nautilus (bad idea) hoping a reinstall would fix the problem. I now get to the log on screen but can't log on, not as user or root. I can boot from CD and run the anaconda repair utility but this is where I have absolutely no idea what to do. I'm running F9 and the Gnome desktop environment.
I encounted a problem that my nautilus restore its background to white after I login next time,so I couldn't see the filename clearly since the color of fonts are also white.So my problem is how to fix the color of background after I change it into other colors instead of white?
I'm not able to find nautilus-share in yum repository. I need it because I want to share folder on the fly. I mean right click on the folder and click on the share.
I just 'upgraded' from F12 to F14 and I can't see how to add the Nautilus icon back to my top panel. It's gone off the System Tools menu, so I can't right-click it and say 'add to panel'. The desktop Computer icon has no such option.I shouldn't have to show desktop and then click on Computer to see a file manager window. How do I get this icon back (more importantly, why was it removed)?
