View 1 Replies View RelatedOn any video I play, the picture is on top of the drop down menus for the player so they can't be seen- they drop down and work and can see the parts that are to the sides of the video picture. This happens on every video player I have tried -Movie player, GNOME MPlayer, VLC. Running Mint 9 on an Elonex webbook.Completely new to Linux so may be missing something obvious.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get a program to automatically reload if I accidentally close it. This is a remote access program, so it has to be relaunched without me doing anything to help it along if it crashes or I accidentally close it. I noticed that someone came up with a way to solve this back in 2007 [URL].. but the files don't appear to exist any more for it to work. how I might get a program to automatically reload on exit?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I right-click on firefox, the menu that appears is sometimes quite long depending on where on the screen I click, and usually the top option dissappears under that top Panel of Gnome shell, so that I have to guess and click on the panel to get an "Open in New Tab" (which is usually my first option.) Is there a way to make it remain within the visible area or something? I'm on Fedora 15 64-bit.

Now I want to get rid of everything windows vista and its partition.As I restart my computer the esc, f1,f2,f8,del, and f12 keys don't do anything on the screen that says Dell BIOS revision 1.0.3 the next screen is blank. and my monitor, on auto detect(analog input), says cannot display this video mode 1680x1050. I've tried using the live cd (I just put it in the drive, and don't know what else to do besides that)I've tried using sudo xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1024x768 --rate 60 in the terminal but all I get is this -> xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default (I did this because I thought it might be a monitor problem)

I'm currently tweaking ubuntu to my liking. I got rid of the "menu bar" and replaced it with the "Main Menu". I don't like the black arrow on the Main Menu so I followed the instructions to get rid of it posted hereI got to the part where I type "sudo make" However, I get the exact error posted hereI tried to follow the solution, I installed libpanel-applet2-dev using synaptic. I tried to edit the "Makefile" in the directory /var/cache/apt-build/build/gnome-panel-2.30.2. However, when I opened this make file I did not find any line calledpanel-compatibility.$(OBJEXT) panel.$(OBJEXT) applet.$(OBJEXT)

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have (had?) ndiswrapper-dkms installed, and used it to get a wireless card working. After a kernel update, the card stopped working, and I tried to re-install it. Part of the directions included doing -r to about everything connected to the original install. Now I still show "Windows Wireless Drivers" in the drop-down menu, but when I click on it, it "flashes" for a split-second, and then disappears.'ve tried re-installing it from Synaptic, and doing "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-dkms" but it just returns saying that I already have the latest version.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using compiz in Kubuntu and I have run across an interesting problem. Occasionally when I reboot and login kubuntu will load but there is no window manager (ie no minimize, maximize, or close) and compiz doesn't actually load (no effects work). Like I said this only happens occasionally. I can fix the problem by using the following command:compiz --replaceOnce I type this command compiz loads and the window manager finishes loading as well. Other times when I reboot Kubuntu will load just find as well as compiz automatically with no problems. The problem is really intermittent. Any ideas on how to fix the problem?I installed the program through the adept-manager and I enabled it through the kubuntu menu->system->desktop effectsI didn't modify any file to make it load automatically it just did it by itself. I also do not have any nvidia card installed and once compiz is loaded it runs flawlessly.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been using this feature since Win3.1 days. Double-click the menu button on the top-left of the window to close it.It doesn't work for me right now in KDE, and I can't find any option to enable it. Googling gave a few hits of people requesting this feature in gnome, but no clear instructions on how to enable it in KDE or whether it's possible. (Though perhaps my Google-fu is just weak...)

View 9 Replies View RelatedUpdate Mgr got me a bunch of updates today, including a kernel (2.6.31-20). I was doing something else, and when it prompted me to do something with menu.lst, I accidentally accepted the default, which I think was to keep menu.lst unchanged.
As a result, the new kernel was installed but not added to menu.lst, so I guess I can't boot to it.
Is there a way to tell my computer, "make the entries into menu.lst automatically"
I guess I could put the entries in manually, but as a beginner, I'm pretty scared to be messing with that file...perhaps if someone has a link to an exceptionally understandable explanation...
I installed Ubuntu as a dual boot to play with a while ago, but I really don't have time to be testing it right now, so I'm wanting to set the GRUB menu to automatically pick Windows 7 instead of me having to hang around waiting for the menu to pop up and hitting the right buttons when I'm barely conscious.
Someone linked me here: [URL] and I found the menu.lst file, but when I opened it to edit the default, it was blank ... is the file elsewhere now or something? Do I not have access rights to the file? What's going on, what do I do?
I have just installed KDE3.5.10 on S13.1 and have followed all steps required on the site at 'http://slackware.osuosl.org/unsupported/kde-3.5.10-for-slack13.0/' containing the packages, finishing with:

You'll probably need to log out and back in again for the profile scripts to add the KDE3 stuff to your $PATH and $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS. When you log back in, KDE3 should start when you run X. Unlike LXDE, this install didn't automatically create a menu entry for gdm. Everything seems to be right, but I can't get the gdm entries I've tried to work. Could somebody who has also installed 3.5.10 kindly post the correct file contents?
