Giving Gnome DO a try but haven't been able to get any of the plugin's I selected to work. Also, any opinions on Cairo Dock vs DO in Docky mode? Which is more MAC like? Cairo has lots of settings and options seem like too many?
is there some wiki page on GNOME or Fedora that list which graphics cards work without problems on Fedora 15 with GNOME Shell? I have tried 3 older cards and they all failed, so I would like to share this info with others so people know which cards to avoid if they want to use full features of GNOME 3 via GNOME Shell.
I installed gnome-do v0.8.2+dfsg-1 while I was on 9.10. Today I updated gnome-do while on 10.10 to v0.8.3.1+dfsg-1. All my plugins disappeared, and browsing new plugins to install only lets me see those up to letter 'F.' Better yet, any workarounds to this? Possibly just download the plugins myself (although I can't seem to find any direct links?)
I've tried many times to get Qt plugins to work, but I just couldn't figure it out. I've written a small test application, how to write a plugin for it?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 minimal with Openbox; far from a standard install but nearly everything works the way it should.
The problem appears quite simple:
Firefox does not recognise installed plugins (i.e, Flash) when running as the standard user; if I run the command 'sudo firefox' however, Firefox loads in plugins just as it should.
I've checked about:plugins in both instances and this has confirmed what is stated above. The list is populated when running as the super user, and empty when running as standard.
I have recently had to update Eclipse but it behaved weirdly, and there was an experimental plugin that I couldn't get to remove cleanly, so I decide to reinstall it completely, cleaning the old "metadata". The experimental plugin disappeared completely but I couldn't get Eclipse CDT and JDT to work. There's no C/C++ or Java perspective.
After having removed all the eclipse-related packages from my fedora box, I issued a few yum-install commands, specifying, among others, the eclipse-cdt and eclipse-jdt packages. They are showed to be installed in Eclipse, but I can't access their perspective. When I open C or Java sources the default inner editor or Emacs get called instead. I tried to reinstall the CDT and JDT plugins from inside Eclipse. The installation appears to be successful, Eclipse lists the plugins as being correctly installed, but I can't open the respective perspectives yet.
I use shoutcast to select streaming audio stations to play, depending on mood,whim, whatever.when I click on 'tune in' next to the audio station, rhythmbox pops up....and that's that. I would expect it to just start playing the station.If I select 'Radio' in rhythmbox's upper left panel, and -then- click 'tune in' on the shoutcast page next to the station I want, there's an entry made in the playist at that time, but then there's an error popup says: Couldn't Start Playback You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins. Which is surprising. It's a shoutcast stream. It should just play. But anyway, I guess something didn't get installed in the default install.
Only the Computer bookmark works; if I click on the others, nothing happens. If I start Docky from terminal, this is the error message I get when I click on the bookmarks
Code: [Error 14:08:03.018] [SystemService] Error opening files. The application doesn't support files/URIs or wasn't found This worked earlier today when I set up the bookmarks plugin, but all of the sudden it's dead. Any ideas how to fix this?
I am using fedora 15, and I try to open vncviewer to view my remote desktop screen. However,

While working fine in KDE, multimedia settings don't work in Gnome. When I go to System/Preferences/Sound it pops up dialogue box after a while: Quote: Waiting for sound system to respond Cancel
I recently switched my desktop environment from KDE-4.3.4 to GNOME-2.28-2 and I did that by installing most of the gnome-packages and uninstalling pretty much all of the kde-ones. After reboot everything worked fine except the file browser that doesn't seem to care about my feelings. It launches and when I try to kill the process the status changes from sleeping to uninterruptible and then back to sleeping. The only way is to reboot but that isn't a solution.Error while sending message: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
I basically can't get my mic to work in F12. After several releases fighting with pulseaudio, F11 finally worked almost OBO, after going to system->preferences->advanced sound configuration and setting all the input volumes to the maximum. But now there's no advanced sound configuration tool, and I just can't find anything to make it work. Skype isn't working, nor is gnome-sound-recorder. I do record some static, but nothing more. By the way, I'm on an Acer Timeline 3810T.
I cannot right click with my mouse on the gnome applications menu to get the properties/edit menu option. This is on F12 on 64bit. Instead I get: "help, remove from panel, lock panel". I dont have this problem with anything else on the top bar.

Turns out I have to install package alacarte and then go to System > Preferences > Main Menu
I just installed Fedora 13 on a new computer and the timed login for gnome does not work unless you manually select it. This surprised me as I upgraded a separate computer to Fedora 13 and the timed login feature still correctly functions and does not require user interaction.
Adding the above to /etc/gdm/custom.conf only adds an Automatic Login option that you have to manually select and then the computer will login. I would deem this less than useful.
I know you can substitute the timed login with the automatic login and it will instantly login, but this provides no option to select another user. I have been unable to find any information why this feature no longer works and wanted to know if there is a new way or if anyone knows why the timed login feature was crippled.
I have been using Eclipse to program in Java for a long time, and have been using Jigloo for most of my GUI design. Recently I decided to try out the C/C++ plugin. I tried installing it, but it did not work. After many attempts, I finally gave up. However, after uninstalling it I found that Jigloo had stopped working. Any other plugins I try to install now also don't work. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling plugins, and reinstalling eclipse, but nothing I have done fixes it. Although eclipse says that the software has been installed, nothing shows up in the features list or the plugins list.
Another problem: When I install eclipse from the repositories, it doesn't install a bunch of libraries and eclipse cannot recognize standard java files.
I'm on Fedora 13 and I have Chromium installed. How do I get more plugins like mplayer or vlc working? I installed firefox to test and gecko-mediaplayer, vlc, and more appear in aboutlugins from firefox but chrome only shows flash and mozplugger. I tried linking all of the plugins from the firefox directory to the chrome plugins directory but no luck.
There are no Graphical User Interfaces showing up for DSSI Music Instruments.
This was the reason why ...

I have been trying to get the Editor to appear for DSSI-synths in Rosegarden for a long time. But no success. The same problem happens with jack-dssi-host and ghostess. Tried to put the hostname in /etc/hosts. Even tried with KDE.
But then I realized that I had no file /etc/hostname. Everything else worked anyway. So I made one, and put the hostname in it. And - halleluja - I have Editors!
So obviously these things (OSC?) looks for the file /etc/hostname.
I am running fedora 13 and am having problems installing Java and Adobe Flash player to work on firefox. Whenever I try Java, it says plugin not avalible, and whenever I try Adobe, it says that it failed. Im sorry if this was posted before, I did look for it.
I just installed F14 (upgraded from F13), and I wanted to install the PHP plugin for KDevelop, but yum reports no plugin packages. A friend has openSUSE and he found the plugins in the repos. Have the plugins not been packaged for Fedora yet? I just want to know that before I install them from source.
I'm doing a kickstart install of Fedora 14 and can't seem to get the php plugins. I've looked through the F14 repositories and I can't find them either. I hope I'm missing something...
I recently got Fedora 11, I've heard it's not the best distro to learn Linux with, but I'm liking it so far, and having a good time
I've gotten the OS up, network works, and I'm using it now. So I'm trying to get a few plugins and applications and I'm having some trouble. Main two I'm working on right now are Adobe Flash Player and Wine. I downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it didn't register that I had it on Firefox.
I took my laptop to best buy, and after about a half an hour, they said I was missing these libraries/plugins:
I've just come from a website that had mpeg and x-aiff audio files, neither of which Firefox would play. I got the "missing plugins" banner, but when I clicked on install I was told nothing suitable was available.I was able to play the files, by downloading with Download Helper and playing in Rhythmbox, but surely there should be some plugin?
whenever i opened some site that require some flash player plugin to play some video etc.It shows download plug-in when i click on it , firefox can't find respective plugin and there is option for manual install.
In that case i have downloaded flash plug-in from adobe website and install it with package installer.But again showing same problem...means download plug-in .
