I 'installed' Fedora12 nine days ago. Everything went smoothly until I booted-up today when I got a message in the top right corner of the desktop saying "WARNING, A CRASH PACKAGE NAUTILUS - 2.28.1 - 2 FC12 HAS BEEN DETECTED."All my icons have disappeared from the desktop.In the tool bar I have a continuous row of moving identical icons for "Starting File Manager".
View 3 RepliesSo I installed Ubuntu 10.10 beta because v9 wouldnt work, I'm using an HP Mini 311. So far everything was working great, and after installing updates I restarted and these "starting file manager" windows kept spamming the desktop!, just along the bottom and you can see in this screenshot basically on the bottom, how do i fix this? i dont want to go back to windows!
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with 'Starting File Manager' completeley filling my taskbar on startup.There could be 100 of them for all I know, as the taskbar ends up dividing into tiny slices for each.How do I find out what is causing this? Is there a log file I can check or some way to repair ubuntu off the Live CD?Recently installed some updates. Last night tried reinstalling Nautilus and Gnome (did that with commands from Ctrl Alt F1 ) but that has not helped.I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (64bit)Dell Inspiron 530I'm no Ubuntu / Linux expert, but I can try to find any info / logs required
View 1 Replies View RelatedI don't know what I did differently before this happens. Now I cannot access files or see icons on the desktop. The "starting file manager" continuously loops in the bottom panel, continuing to load forever. in the system monitor, if I kill the process "gnome panel", it resets itself, then continues the process. Only thing different I did was install that one thing that gives you System->Preferences->Windows by hitting "yum install control-center-extra".

Is there a way to stop it?
Not sure where to post this, I am runing 10.04 LTS, 64 bit and things have been great, until..... I activated a Ubuntu One account and once I did, my Ubuntu One folder would immediately close upon opening and my downloads folder would immediately close upon opening. I delt with it, no big deal. So I decided that I need to get my crap off the Ubuntu One account so I downloaded them all from the website onto my desktop. Now none of my folders immediately close upon opening and ever couple seconds my desktop flashes and a windows quickly opens and closes stating "starting file manager".
I found a couple of posts the looked like fixes, but nothing has worked. clicked off show_desktop in gconf-editor which stops the "starting file manager", but does not stop the folder from immediately closing. I also found this, [URL]... but I don't know hoe to apply the patch nor if I should. I have tried some other things, but I cant find the threads again to provide. I believe one was the killall Nautilus then apply Linux Essentials, which I don't think even ran at all.
I have a generic PC (VIA chipset, AMD 1.8 GHz, old NVIDIA card, etc) running Ubuntu 10.04 side-by-side with a Windows XP box. The Ubuntu box can see and mount some of the Windows disks via SAMBA. Recently, I had a little hardware problems with the Ubuntu box but cleaned the fans and reseated cards and things seemed better. Today the Ubuntu box rebooted and when it came back up I could log in OK but then the X11 GUI locked up in a continuous "Starting File Manager" loop. If I click anything the taskbars go away showing only a blank wallpaper screen then the taskbars return but but will recycle if I click on anything. I can reboot in recovery mode and have applied all updates from that screen. The underlying Linux seems to be fine. I can CTRL+ALT+F1 and get a terminal screen that works fine.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am not sure what the problem is with Ubuntu (could be operator) but I dont make any changes to the system just the updates. Heres the low down. I was running 10.04 and somehow out of the blue it wouldnt boot up so I get unetbootin usb with 10.10 and do a fresh install and right off the bat 2 things are wrong 1.) the gnome icons are corrupt so i reinstall them 2.) I get infinite "Starting File Manager" windows opening. Everytime I restart or startup the same thing. I have to killall nautilus in terminal on start up. I also can not right click on the desktop and trying to open nautilus after the fact is useless.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to copy all files under directory A to directory B. All files under directory A are starting with dot, for example:
A/.a
A/.b
A/.c
which I found if I use: cp A/* B, always get error:
cp: cannot stat 'A/*': no such file or directory
It seems there is no option for cp as ls to handle entries started with dot
I want to add some starting information in a file while creation. like if I type vi test.sh
then
#!/bin/bash
will be added automatically.
Somebosy suggest me how to do this ??
Running 10.10. After installing Screenlets from the software center, I opened the screenlets manager to start the GCal widget that I wanted to run. However, when I click start/stop nothing happened. I was hoping that it was something simple so I moved my dock around to see if the widget was starting behind the taskbar or dock, but no such luck. I have the widget layer enabled in compiz, but the screenlet is not showing up there either.. Just a blank screen when I hit F9.
I've installed compiz, conky, compiz-fusion, compiz-plugins-extra and I can see all the options that seem to be necessary for the screenlets to function. I just don't see anything for any of the screenlets when I try to enable them via start/stop....
recently i did a reinstall of debian lenny with gnome. My laptop has the broadcom wireless chip, and went and got the squeeze broadcom-sta deb packages and installed them, following the debian wiki. Everything seems to be running. iwconfig shows lo, eth0 both with no wireless connections and eth2 that seems to be running.My issue seems to be with the wireless configuration with network-manager. I have used this in the past and like it well enough and didn't have any issues with it. But for some reason, it is not working with this installation. It doesn't show up as a panel addition and when i try to command line call it up (nm-applet), the terminal just sits there doing nothing. I try to call it up as root, no dice - gives me the gtk-warning cannot open display issue that a xhost +localhost doesn't fix. Reinstalling network-manager and associated packages didn't work. So, fine, i tried the network monitor applet. I cannot select eth2, but by typing that into the connection name, i get a signal strength % - another indicator to me that the wireless chip is working - and then i'll click on the configure button, i get the root password prompt and nothing at all. I am currently seeing about setting the network up command line style, but the 'ol command line is not a strong point for me and everything i read sets things up differently. Other gui applications that require root privileges like synaptic work fine.

A function by name abc is called in many files. I want to copy all the lines with the function call to an output file.A simple grep on function name doesn't help me as the function call is spanning across multiple lines as follows:
abc(parameter1,
parameter2,
parameter3);
So I want to copy all the three lines (till semicolon) to the output file.The problem is because there are more than 200 calls for the same function and I cannot do it manually
I would like to stop network manager from starting up on boot. I have tried moving
Code:
/etc/init.d/network-manager stop
to rc.local and it did nothing but boot me into the CLI
I have also tried to put
Code:
sudo service network-manager stop and that did nothing also.
After I get network manager to stop on boot up. How do I make it so it will not auto connect to networks? My computer keeps on joining a different network on boot up. And I don't like this as some times I go to my banks website and I am on there network with out realizing it (because of the auto connect) Is there a way to stop this also?
I am currently using debian 6.0 .While moving the file , electricity vanished. It happened that the file being moved wasn't at source neither destination folder.Is there a file copy program which works atomically (like teracopy in windows) .Yeah , common sense would be to manually copy then delete file from source . Can't this be integrated into GUI by a program?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to set krusader as my default file manager. I have gone into System Settings > Default Applications > File Manager and changed Dolphin to Krusader.
When I plug in a flash card the Device Notifier pops up and I click on the device inserted. The choices I get are Digikam, Dolphin, and Do Nothing.
I click on "Dolphin" (hard coded it appears) and it looks like Krusader tries to start. I get the cursor with the bouncing krusader mini-icon and an entry in the panel, but then nothing happens. It all goes away and I'm left with a blank screen (wallpaper, actually).
I've chosen Krusader from the menu, so presumably the arguments to it are good. I have KDE 4.3.3 and krusader 2.0.0.

I come from windows!!! For the life of me, I can't find the (Wine) install environment with the Thunar file manager. For some reason, after i installed wine it doesn't have a link that takes me to the C: drive that Thunar used to open so I could access what I installed thats only compatible with windows, such as World Of Warcraft. I'm bound and determined there has got to be another way to find it!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using a server where i need to login twice. The first time i login as my boxname and pass. The 2nd login is 'root' so i can access the content of the box (i dont understand it but that hasnt stopped me from using it as normal).Now i like a GUI so i can browse files easier and drag and drop multiple files instead of using the command line. WinSCP doesnt work as it locks up. I suspect its because there is a prompt to log in again.
What can i use to drag & drop files?
