Anyone running this without issues in F15? Tends to black out my screen now... I need to logout and log back in. (It does seem to clean out the system well enough though). Plus I don't seem to have the "Bleachbit As Administrator" option anymore.
View 2 RepliesI stumbled across this privacy app today, it's sort of like a CCleaner for Linux. I only see one mention of it in the forums, and I'm wondering why nobody's using it. It seems to be pretty thorough and preforms as they advertise, the site says it has overwrite capability but I'm not sure what algorithm it's using, as I haven't looked at the code. Anyway seems like something that ought to be in the repos.[URL]...

View 14 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there was an option like what windows has, where, while in explorer, you can right-click a file, choose "Run as Administrator...", enter your password in the dialog box, and open the program with admin privileges. Is there a script out there for linux to do this? If so, where is it, and how can i install it?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI used sbopkg to install Bleachbit.
It does not launch from the 'system' menu - the small icon just bounces and then nothing happens. (user or root)
When I launch it from a terminal, as root, I get the following output:
Code:
bash-4.1# bleachbit
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/bleachbit", line 41, in <module>
[Code]....
I desperately need to free up some disk space while awaiting better hardware to arrive. Messing with bleachbit's previews, I had a look at what would happen if I went for the Localizations option and got the preview you can see in the attached text file.
I had a look through the list, and the files all seem to be related to languages I don't use (I use English). But it's a long list and I may easily have missed something. Would telling bleachbit to do its thang be okay? Or would it kill my machine. Also, I have had localepurge installed for a very long time. Why is this "localization" stuff still around?
I like cleaning up my install with Bleachbit. I see that when you install it, it also install Bleachbit as root. What is the difference between this and the user version and is it safe to use it as root? I am assuming it cleans up stuff on a deeper level but have always wondered about how safe it would be to use.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI realize bleachbit is supposed to "clean files", but my disk usage is at 11.8%. My disjk usage was at like 6.0%. How in the world did it jump so much? It doesnt appear to be right. The only thing I did not check were the Firefox checkboxes..
View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently used bleachbit on my desktop and it worked fine, but I was online then when I left I turned it off. When it restarted I had no wireless connectivity and it would not connect, then when I went to update, it gave me: W Failed to Fetch repeatedly as I cant copy as this is my laptop I would like to know why and how to fix it. I tried sudo apt-get update which is how I got the error and helped me realize that BB is not not be used.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a 500 GB hard drive connected via a SATA/USB adapter. After connecting it, I did a basic format of the drive with no problem. I then attempted the "Wipe Free Space" option under the File menu in BleachBit, selecting the external drive, and it began the process. It gives me a time estimate of about 300 minutes, but, instead, after a few minutes it says "Done" and gives me the message "[Errno 27] File too large. Disk space recovered: 0 Files recovered: 0 Errors: 1"
What happened? What do I need to do to get this volume wiped?
I finished my Bachelor's degree in Electronics and communication engineering in 2007. I finished RHCE in 12th July 2010. I don't have any work experience in the field of linux.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI installed Linux Mint 9 a couple of days ago (from a live usb) and my 'Account type' was set as 'Custom'.
I had to change the 'Account type' to 'Administrator' so I could edit the 'Network Manager' configuration (the 'Apply' button in Network Manager was disabled until I changed to Administrator).
Is it ok to leave it as 'Administrator' or should I change it to 'Desktop user' until I need to change system settings again?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have created a Joomla! website on a subdomin that I host. The site has a mangement section URL... and I am trying to secure the administrator section only using SSL/https.So far I created the self-signed certificate and installed mod_ssl. I have added a *:443 virtual hosts in my httpd conf .This is really confusing me because the page exists, it works for http and https is just another protocol. Its almost like ssl does not have permission to access those files... Is there something im missing in ssl.conf or http.conf?I am not entirely sure I am going about this the right way.
I had a quick search through the joomla forums and found lots of errors, but not really any instructions. I have done some google searches and there seems to be about 10 different ways to skin the cat.
I have configured squirrel mail for testing. Now My question is what is the responsibility of mail server administrator.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently installed lucid on my new laptop (Thinkpad T410, since had some problems installing Karmic). Originally ran great, yet after several days lost the ability to log on as administrator using the login screen. After several seconds, it just sends me right back to the same screen. However, at the same time, I have no problem logging on as a different user via this screen. I'm also able to login no problem using the command line. I can toggle between this command screen and the visual user account, so can run what I need in root and then transfer to the user account so I can view it.

require administrator privileges to run. A while ago i read a post(forgot where i read it) about being able to let a user run these commands in a script (that contains the desired command) created by the administrator/root without the user having to do a sudo and entering a password. Does anyone know how i can go about doing this?

I am thinking of making a fresh install if I cant sort this but would like to fix if possible.
Strange. After a recent update, I can no longer right click on a folder and open it as Administrator. I get this error message:
Unable to determine the program to run.
The item you selected cannot be open with administrator powers because the correct application cannot be determined.
I don't quite get this but why is it looking for a program to run? I only want to open a folder, not run a program. Anyway, I have done an uninstall and re-install of nautilus-gksu but that did not solve the problem. I have googled but no answers I could use.
Again, all I want to do is open a folder as Administrator so I can perform other operations that require root permission on files in that folder.
using: 10.04 LTS fully updated
Is possible install wubi-ubuntu in other folder? or in the same way how can I run ubuntu in windows without administrator permission?
