how to get a right click option to encrypt a file in nautilus. Per the subject line, right click works ok in the other two applications but doesn't seem to have integrated into nautilus. (both KGpg and Seahorse are installed and each seems to work correctly).
View 1 RepliesI was wondering is there were any other file managers for Ubuntu other than nautilus and dolphin, And it has to have a GUI, I like nautilus, but I cant stand the way it's tabs are now (compared to how they were in karmic) also nautilus is a little slow for my liking, dolphins tabs are fine, but I use gnome and it looks terrible outside of KDE.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI'm having a strange problem in my gnome installation. I have about a dozen window managers installed, and just to test the new KDE 4.4 update I used kde for one day (use gnome mostly) and now the gnome places menu opens up the kde file manager dolphin instead of nautilus. How can I change it. It doesn't even appear in the edit menus item on right clicking the menu.

View 6 Replies View RelatedTrying the various settings (and noticing ubuntu gnome users recently had the same exact OPPOSITE problem -- they can't SHOW hidden files in dolphin) to hide my hidden files in dolphin is not working. The settings are saved OK, but those damn (ending in tilde, ie "~") files do NOT ever hide! I even see the correct little green recycling symbol on them, indicating they're identified as such, but no actual hiding goes on..
Nautilus, which I've used before (but have grown tired of, and was looking forward to dolphin), also has a weird issue that seems to have appeared with FC13 (I'd been using FC12 'til now mostly because of this) - there's no way (AFAIK) to tell it to show the location; to see it, you have to click Go->Location each time. Previously I could set it to print out the whole file or server path and it would stay that way when I opened new windows.. This is on fresh install & update.. kernel is 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64.
I would like the ability to right-click on a file and encrypt it, but after genning the PGP key pair in seahorse that option doesn't exist on the pop-up menu.

Anybody seen this? How to get the encrypt decrypt function into the nautilus again.
I am using OpenSUSE 11.3 with GNOME "attached". My problem is that Nautilus has become a burden for me and my simple needs. I often encounter a slow responsiveness (lag) and a slow speed browsing throughout folders/files. I have installed Dolphin and i wish to set it up as my default File Manager.
View 9 Replies View RelatedJust yesterday I did a fresh install on my aspire one of ubuntu 11.04. It then installed konqueror and (apperently at the same time dolphin). Now I did allot of googling and now it works to a level that if i press home folder in my unity bar it opens in Dolphin.Nice But the most important thing still doesnt work, that is if I want to save a document from libreoffice or pdf or what ever program it still opens a window of nautilus. I need it to be a window of dolphin because nautilus doesnt understand the networkdirs you can make with dolphin. (makeing a nautilus network dir doesnt work).

I used DSA El Gamal as the encryption type and a key strength of 2048 bits. However; when I right click on a file or folder I don't see the Encyrpt... and Sign options.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI currently have dolphin installed and I would like to make it the default so that in all cases it will open instead of nautilus. How can I do this? I have looked it up but haven't found anything that works, not sure if this is due to a change with 10:04 or just bad information.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have high amount of data stored on MSN Skydrive But I do not know of a skydrive client that runs on Linux, which lets you store, in conclusion, to manage those files. I know there are other vendors that do have, for example, DropBox, but for different reasons, are not an option for me. You know, that client exists, SkyDrive for Linux, and is compatible with Dolphin or Nautilus.

How to i can encrypt ext3 or ext4 file system.
I recently installed Fedora 11 64bit and I am curious about encrypting my entire file system for security purposes. I've been on Google for a while now and I keep finding info on how to encrypt a specific folder or home directories but nothing on the entire file system (or I'm missing something big here). It's hard for me to imagine that it isn't. If so, do I need to encrypt the partition my file system is on before installing it? What software should I use? There seems to be so many, it's difficult to keep them all straight.

i have problem with my nautilus and may this sounding silly question.
how to display option "compress" and "extract here" at right click file on nautilus ?
i'm using ubuntu 11.04 and nautilus elementary 2.32.2
i was installed "file-roller" but option compress and extract here not display ?
I Have shell script like this
Code:

So I want to get mount/umount option under right click services menu. I went to Dolphin -> Settings -> Configure Dolphin -> Services -> Download New Services and from there I installed KDE CDEmu Emulator and MountISO. But neither of them is showing up in actual context menu. Neither in Dolphin -> Settings -> Configure Dolphin -> Services for that matter. I tried to install them as normal user and as a root. I went to have a peak in /usr/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/ but they aren't there as well... It's just me or lots of things seems to be not quite working in 11.3?
View 9 Replies View Relatedwhenever I double click on a folder on desktop it tries to launch it with VLC player... I think this is because I set the "open with" option for a folder to vlc and now it does this by default... the "open with" isn't there anymore in the right-click context menu and dolphin has no "open with" tab like nautilus under properties..is there a way to set this option in dolphin, or are there any other window managers in KDE4 that can achieve this goal?
View 2 Replies View RelatedOnline Updated prompted me today to import a new key that was created today for the KDE4 Community repository (SUSE 11.2). How can I verify the key's signature? How can I make sure that the repository has not been hacked and the key I am going to import is the correct key. I was expecting a note somewhere on the openSUSE website about the new key or a list of currently valid keys, where I can compare the signatures. But I could not find such a list or so.

If I am using LXDE or another non-Gnome desktop and want to use Nautilus as the file viewer it needs to be launched with the --no-desktop option (so nautilus does not load it's desktop image under the other DE).
I know there is a way to make it so whenever nautilus is launched it will not load the desktop (even if you do not pass the --no-desktop argument) but I do not recall how I did this last time! I believe it was a gconf value. Anyone know what this setting is/how I can accomplish what I am looking to do?
I have a "Storage" partition in my hard drive which I have labeled as such and added to fstab. This is my fstab file:

The problem is that when I open up nautilus and click the Computer icon in the toolbar (which gives the fake computer:/// address) I see two items referring to my Storage partition:
* Storage (which appears to be of "unknown type" in the properties).
* 500 GB Hard Disk: Storage (which is the one that works).
I've been trying out Nautilus-actions (Gnome 2.28.4), but have been unable to import most config files from [url].
When I attempt to import an action, it complains:
Quote:
Can't parse file 'convert_flv_to_avi.schemas' as GConf schema description file!
This XML file is not a valid Nautilus-actions config file (missing keys: )
So far, the only one that has worked for me is "Move to custom folder" [url].
I use this line to line to archive and password protect my files (with zero compression):7z a -p -t7z -mx0 ~/Documents.7z ~/Documents In the attached picture, I notice there is a check box to 'Encrypt the file list too' via the GUI 7z method. How could I add this option to the above 7z line?
Also I think rar allows you to 'Encrypt the file list too'. Could someone also give me a rar line similar to 7z a -p -t7z -mx0 ~/Documents.7z ~/Documents but that has the 'Encrypt the file list too' feature added?
How do I go about encrypting a file in Ubuntu 10.04?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to temporarily store a file containing sensitive data in a public server, in a secure way. I think that encrypting the whole file would be much more secure than creating a passworded .zip encrypted file, because they could be subject of brute force attacks. Attacking a whole file of unknow format is harder, I think. I thought of something like the command:
Code:
$ programidontknow --encrypt mysensitive.file --output-file mumblerumble.file
then the program asks interactively for a password)
$ ls
mysensitive.file mumblerumble.file
So I get one file that may look like junk. I tried to search how to do it with GnuPG. But it seems that GnuPG needs much configuration I dont want to do. I simply want to type the password one time to get the file. It doesnt need to retain any configuration for what I want to do. In similar scenario, I would want to do this on a machine/account that is not mine.
Nautilus shows no text preview in icons for text files with preview enabeld.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have been having some issues with Ubuntu One. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick. For some reason, Nautilus tells me that Ubuntu's default Videos folder (there is data in this folder) is synced on Ubuntu One when it is not. I have checked on the Ubuntu One website, and the site says the Videos folder is not synced (Ubuntu One's website does not show the Videos folder under "my synced folders"). When I attempt to uncheck the sync option in Nautilus, the loader next to it spins endlessly, or Nautilus gives me an error that it can not sync the folder.
