I am having a problem with new windows opening and becoming the focus right away. So when I am typing in one window, the other window opens up and now all of my text is going into the new window.....very very frustrating. I am able to change this on an older version of Fedora that I use at work, but I can not for the life of me find how to fix this on Fedora 11.
Before upgrading from Fedora 13 to v.14, VLC Media Player (v1.1.9) worked perfectly. But under Fedora 14, when I try to use it to play .AVI files that played perfectly under Fedora 13 (with the same hardware), VLC opens, stalls for a second, then closes. I've tried several files -- all of which play under Movie Player (and DID play on VLC under Fedora 13), so I know the files themselves are valid. I'd like either to have VLC work under Fedora 14, or revert back to Fedora 13 and permanently block any future upgrade to 14. easy way of rolling back to v.13 without losing my configurations or any of my installed software? Would using a Fedora 13 CD do it?
I have a Fedora system that I just changed the mother board on. The old NICs were eth0 and eth1. Now I have only one NIC that shows up as eth3. The problem is no matter what I do, eth0 and eth1 will not go away and their configs conflict with eth3. I removed Network Manager via yum. I deleted the ifcfg-eth0/1 files from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and /etc/sysconfig/networking/default and profiles. In all of these locations the ifcfg-eth0/1 files keep reappearing after a reboot. I am at a loss at this point how to get rid of these non-existant NICs.
When i install Ubuntu, it's starting programs, and all of it's defaults is great, but I do a lot of configuring to get it the way I wants there a way to save all the configurations, settings, and all the updates.
how can i install pfsense to red hat 5 i have tried and it asked to install other files(dependencies).i searched about it & i find that it can be done thrugh yum installer easily. how can i do that.
The problem is when I configure the network setting i.e.,Ip address, Subnet mask and default gateway, the pc becomes very slow. For opening the terminal it takes 20-25 seconds.
I dont know much about linux, some basic console commands nuthing much, but I was setting up slackware for my server. The hardware was a bit old, so after making a new user and logging in, I tried my best to go into the theme settings, and change the current theme. Immedietly after hitting apply, It went back to console, and now startx tries to start xserver but crashes it. Is there a way I can reset the config? Possibly with the install cd?
Simple (I hope) problem here, my xdvi configuration is wacky. It never shows the entire page, cuts off the left side of text. This happened after having to shut the program down a few times due to it hating me.
In any case, the root configuration file works perfectly, so I was wondering if someone knew how to
a) reset user configuration for xdvi to defaults, or
I recently bought an ASUS M32AD PC to upgrade from my eMachines T2893.The ASUS came pre-loaded with W-8.1 on a 1 TB HD. Whoop.I want to install the Master HD with deb7 from the eMach into the new unit, but there seems to be a problem. The drives have different connection configurations. Total surprise to me.

I just got installed ubuntu karmic koala 9.10 on my laptop and fiddle too much with the system configuration files. Now I notice that most of my permissions are not working in my login. How do I restore my Ubuntu setting, which are as good as freshly installed OS and also Not disturb any of my currently installed application on the system ??Note: I repeat "I really dont want to disturb my of my currently installed applications on my ubuntu and yet want to restore my system to freshly installed OS settings. All the applications that I have installed is a whopping 3 days of googling and hardwork in getting them working "Some of the freaky things happening in my system:
1. I am not able to see Battery notification and Network notification y workaround: execute "sudo /usr/bin/gnome-power-management" and "sudo /usr/bin/nm-applet". I am not able to lock my screen3. I am not able to access my windows drive. Which otherwise when worked normally used to prompt me to enter my password, post authentication I was able to access my drive
I had a successful dual boot with win 7 and ubuntu 10.04. I just moved computers from a dell XPS with a P4 to a Xeon. I switched the hard drives between the machines. As I expected GRUB somehow imploded on the idea and now only displays a cruel "No such disk" message. Anyways, I was hoping to tap into someones vast knowledge of grub and re-configure it. It would make my day. I am also using a LiveCD so any commands I would use must be able to work on a LiveCD fdisk -l

I've reinsalled ubuntu 10.04 no less than 5 times, each time taking hours to get all my configuration right, basically I like to mess to the point of screwing it up. Anyway just wondering if there was a way or program that remembers all of your preferences, files, games, apps, EVERYTHING! so you only have to load the file and it will do everything for you. Would save lot of time!
What happens if I restart GDM? And how do I do it? I think I did it once and I lost all my configurations, or maybe that was something else. i just dont want to have to redo all my customizations.
I am using Squirrelmail version 1.4.9a.When I run conf.pl to enable or disable plugins, changes don't reflect into config.php file. Because of that, I have to manually change config.php.
i dont have much of command line experience with linux.can i setup opensuse server in such a way that i do all my configurations in gui mode and then switch the server to no gui mode as to free up resources.

I've been having some problems recently with Ubuntu and my Printer. I find that when using ubuntu, ink drains much faster, and constant refills are required. I know the printer works fine, I use it on windows when ubuntu Fails. Today I was trying to print a colour document out, this was with default config, standard print quality etc., this was the result. On the left you can see the document before printing, and on the right the printed document. (Click to open image in new window)
Example 1 > Example 2 >
How to just get normal quality printing, without having to revert to ... windows? How can I consult the ink levels of the DX4450 from Ubuntu. I have tried both MtInk and Epsutils and both failed.
I have a laptop that I use in three environments with different monitor setups.
1) At work, I have a 1280x1024 second monitor. 2) At home, I have a 1920x1080 second monitor. 3) In meetings and other places I have no second monitor.
Whenever I switch between these setups, which is at least several times each day, I have to manually change the monitor configuration. I use the nvidia-settings tools.
Granted, it only takes a few seconds. Is there a way to make the system smart enough to automatically detect when a monitor is added or removed, know *which* monitor is attached, and reconfigure the resolution and monitor layouts the way I want them?
