For some reason my RPM programs aren't showing up in my /var/cache/apt folder. Am I looking in the right directory or do I need to do something else get them back? I'm using PClinuxOS Gnome Edition 2010.12
View 3 RepliesJust upgraded to fc12, noticed that there was no menu bar (the one with "file", "edit", etc....) on my users/groups configuration program, but I figured that it was just a change from fc11. But now I'm noticing more stuff that doesn't have one that ought to (gedit, filezilla, and most importantly, nautilus).On the other hand, firefox does have the menu bar, so it's not a global issue. I have compiz-fusion/emerald, although I'm not sure that would make a difference. I've tried a few different themes thinking it might be the theme I'm using, but no dice.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am missing the File menu in many programs (Fedora 13). I found a thread that said this fixed itCode:yum remove gnome-applet-globalmenu gnome-globalmenu-common sshmenu gnome-applet-sshmenubut I did that and (I'm using audacity to test) it said that it was missing gnome-globalmenu. So I did Code:sudo yum --enablerepo=updates-testing install gnome-applet-globalmenu gnome-globalmenu-common sshmenu gnome-applet-sshmenubut now audacity is again missing the file menus.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm currently using Ubuntu 10.10 and the version of Wine in the standard repository. In the past, when I've installed wine, it automatically gave me a Programs menu from which I could launch all the Windows programs I installed. That menu is now missing.I tried uninstalling Wine, removing the ~/.wine folder, and removing all references to wine and wine programs in ~/.local/share... with no effect.can't get the Programs menu to come back.

View 3 Replies View RelatedThere are some programs that are missing in the packman repo for openSUSE 11.4 these are:
PACPL
Acetoneiso
furiusisomount
kdvdcreator

After installing Fedora 12, all of my programs are missing the top menus such as File, Edit, and like wise I haven't been able to figure out why this is, since it has never happened before.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got Debian Sid x64 on my machine. Problem is that in my KDE setup several programs don't work, namely System Load Viewer plasmoid, plasmoid with temperature info and update-notifier-kde. System Load Viewer always shows 0% RAM and swap usage, as well as no processors, temperature sensors plasmoid shows no sensors available even after I installed lm-sensors and run sensors-detect, update-notifier-kde doesn't show any notifications even if I run aptitude update manualy. I might be mistaken but it seems to me that these three programs are not working because of some common reason, most likely some policy package either missing or misconfigured, but I can't figure out what is it.

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen I go to sites like kde-apps.org or gtk-apps.org i often times find that lots of programs there are available only in source code? Why? Why is it so hard for the developer to compile the package or to make that .deb or .rpm package? I'm sure it's easier for the developer to compile his own program than for a linux user... i don't get this.. why does everything come in source code?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI want to do a clean re-install of Windows 7 but there are files and installed programs which need to be backed up and restored. I tried using the Windows 7 backup utility to do a full backup to an external usb drive. The problem is that whenever the backup gets close to finishing, it always crashes. The system I am backing up has been compromised by viruses, which might be causing this. I already used several utilities to get rid of the viruses but some of the damage they did can not be undone. I tried doing the backup in safe mode but Windows 7 does not allow this. What other methods can I use to backup and restore important programs and files on Windows 7? Perhaps there is a way to do it from outside Windows 7, like say, using a Linux live cd? One of the main problems I see is restoring installed programs since those make use of the registry so simply copying the files probably won't work.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm interested in figuring out which programs on my machine are using swap, and how much each is using. I realize this can probably be done with top, but I am having trouble figuring how how.
What I've tried:
Start top
Press f (add column)
Press p (SWAP colum)
This adds a SWAP column, but the data doesn't seem to be correct. Top lists Firefox as using 582m of swap, but the header simultaneously reports that 0k of swap is being used.
Is there a better way to monitor swap usage?
I am new to C programming and I need a way to compile and run my code. I've made a little research and I found that eclipse is a nice IDE. But I don't know how to configure it and generally. What do I need to download and install to make it work. I've also tried downloading easy eclipse that doesn't need any configuration or extra files but the link on the site was broken. Is there any other C IDE like easy eclipse available?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been playing around with awesome wm, uzbl and doing quite a bit of reading and thinking. Do more programs need scripting support? I've found that being able to tell a program what I want it to do specificially has made life much easier. I'm finding some things (my prefered editors, ed and vim) are starting to seem a little limited since what they can do is fairly well defined and hard to change.
View 1 Replies View RelatedFor some commands the command synopsis (syntax) is given like this:
command [a|b] [args ...]
I take mplayer (perhaps not GNU) to illustrate the point:
mplayer [cdda|cddb]://track[-endtrack][:speed][/device] [options]
mplayer [dvd|dvdnav]://[title|[start_title]-end_title] [options]
An item inside square brackets is optional. The pipe sign is the 'or' logical connective (disjunction). But then, what is [cdda|cddb]?
If optional, I can omit it: it makes no sense because there are more the one possible synopsis for the command line.
Where is that other add/remove programs feature aside from the Synaptic Package Manager??
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have always had to use windows etc, of course this means I have become accustomed to the way the programs are automatically installed etc... so my question is:
Once I have found appropriate software which I would like to add to my computer, (which is Linux Compatible)... what are the steps, in the simplest terms to start using it?
To confirm, I have got to the stage where the program is on the computer but as no "window" pops up... I am fairly lost to get it from the completed downloads to actually start using it... is it an option like extract? Could you give me the basic steps.
I write code check.sh and add the following line as it's first line:Quote:#!/bin/sh -eThen make it's permission as executableThen coped it to the following destination:Code:cp Scripts/check.sh /etc/init.d
