My HP 17" lcd monitor (HP1740) sometimes has a vertical, thin yellow line, about two inches in from the right hand side, runing from top to bottom of the screen. I can't tie this to any particular application or activity. I mostly use Firefox, Thunderbird and Abiword
I suddenly seem to be having a small issue with my laptops LCD. Recently, when I cold boot the laptop I will get a line of single pixel width running from the top to the bottom of the screen. This only seems to appear when the x server or the windows gui starts. Now if I turn off the screen after the line appears (e.g. closing the laptop lid while switched on) the line will sometimes disappear and all will be as normal. However, on the next boot I may see the line again. The line has a yellow-ish tint and always appears on the same spot. It appears on both windows XP and Ubuntu, so I assume it's a hardware issue? The line appears even when I have a blank screensaver on.
On the left bottom corner of my screen I have what looks like a yellow post-it and I cannot seem to get rid of it.What it is and how do I get rid of it?I got it by accidently mashing some keys on my keyboard, I must have activated a program by accident.
While seeing any text file in vi mode, yellow patches are appearing on my screen in all spaces. Same are not appearing in cat mode. This is very clumsy to understand the text. How to remove those yellow patches. It seems earlier I have used a command to remove empty lines in between text file and this problem is occurring since then.
Right after a fresh install I went into terminal b4 logging into gnome and after about 10 minutes the screen goes black. I can wiggle the mouse or touch the keyboard and it goes away. I play games with a controller and since I'm not touching the mouse or keyboard this happens every 10 minutes or so. I went into gnome and put screen saver to 2 hours and not to happen when idle but this didn't make it stop. I reinstalled again and it still happens.
I got out my old Fuji Finepix s3100 and set it to web cam mode to see if anything had changed in the world of usb video drivers. Lo and behold it worked! I can watch myself on cheese web cam booth. kewl, but I wanted more. So, just recently hearing about chatroulette on the Daily Show, I click and wahla no go . After flash comes up and asks for and receives user permission to access my hardware, I click to find a random stranger, and my camera displays yellow and blue lines across its onscreen display box. I notice that movement is noticed by the camera. If I move I notice a change in background/lines. As far as I can tell, my camera is not a fault. I mean it works for local viewing. Is this a flash or possibly a chatroulette problem?
I got macbook pro 5.1 recently upgraded to 11.04, all works out of the box!

I have not defined a user vimrc, OS is redhat 4.6 and after a search and replace the first column in the editor is highlighted yellow and it stays that way as I close and open vim. This is the /etc/vimrc that came on the system. anyone see a bug or a reason it would do that?
if v:lang =~ "utf8$" || v:lang =~ "UTF-8$" set fileencodings=utf-8,latin1 endif set nocompatible " Use Vim defaults (much better!)
How do I get rid of Yellow Tool Tips? I already tried: gconf-editor and apps > panel > global and uncheck tooltips_enabled; then rebooted. The yellow tips are still there. I find them of little help and a bit annoying. Update: Actually I just noticed that the color depends on the theme being used, therefore it is not always yellow!

i recently installed vlc media player 0.8.6 in yellow dog linux 6.2 on my ps3 by following this procedure..[url]... i then used the firefox add-on mediaplayerconnectivity (0.9.2) to link video files for quick time, real video, flash (flv)etc... to vlc as the default player for these video formats. (note: i had to manually add vlc as the flv default player, b/c mediaplayerconnectivity did not automatically do this.)
now...on videos when i double-click on the little movie film icon to play the streaming file through vcl the player opens, but neither the video or audio play even though i have vlc setup as the default player. i have tried playing some quick time (mov) and windows media video (wmv) streaming video and they work fine. i noticed that there's a new update (0.9.5) for vlc. do i need that update to make sure videos (flv files) video will play? if so, how do i install the 0.9.5 update after downloading it in yellow dog linux 6.2?

I have a USB Multiboot created with pendrivelinux.com. I have tried to install Ubuntu 10.04 on a small laptop, but I get the problem that the installer wants to either:
1) Partition my USB key and install it there 2) Install it on my drive and destroy the Windows Partition 4) Install it on my key and destroy everything on it. 3) Manually setup the partitions
When manually setting up partitions, I cannot resize the windows partition. GParted can't resize that partition (there is a triangular ! yellow warning sign, similar to this thread's icon, but yellow). GParted on the USB (GParted Environment) has the same problem as GParted in Ubuntu. It seems to be locked, even though I am in root and I have every hard drive partition unmounted.
Every time I open a folder the Home Folder icon appears in Launcher.s it possible to change this icon? I tried changing the user folder icon and I changed the desktop icon for the home folder, but the launcher doesn't reflect this.Here's the screenshot to show you what I mean:
I am using export in 'Inkscape' to convert an SVG file to PNG. As I am using a transparent background, the colour of background is automatically set to yellow. I want to change this default colour to white. How can I do this?
Since upgrading to Lucid on two different PCs - one clean install and one upgrade I am experiencing a strange problem when printing from Firefox.Every printout from Firefox has a very pale yellow background on the whole print area.If I print to a pdf file rather than directly to the printer, then print the pdf file the problem does not occur.If I print to a postscript file, then print that the problem is present.No other applications I have tested have this problem (open office, gedit, google chrome)The printer is an HP Business Jet 2200 and I have tried all four offered drivers.
I used my computer this morning, but when I returned this evening, I am unable to reach the internet. Also the light on the mobo where the ethernet cable is plugged in is steady yellow.
My limited experience would tell me it is a hardware failure, but it seems so strange with nothing happening during the day. How might I best diagnose the problem?
I have two files, file1.traj and file2.traj. Both these files contain identical data and the data are arranged in same format in them. The first line of both files is a comment.
At line 7843 of both files there is a cartesian coordinate X, Y and Z ( three digits ). And at line 15685 there is another three digits. The number of lines in between two cartesian coordinates are 7841. And there are few hundreds of thousands of lines in a file.
What I need to do is copy the X Y Z coordinate (three digits) from file1.traj at line 7843 and paste into file2.traj at the same line number as in file1.traj. The next line will be 15685 from file1.traj and replace at line 15685 at file2.traj. And I dont want other lines (data) in file2.traj get altered. This sequence shall be going on until the end of the file. Means copy and substitude the selected lines from file1.traj into file2.traj.
I tried to use paste command but I cant do for specified line alone.
Here i showed the data format in the file. I used the line number for clarity purpose.
I have the all the latest updates from yast. I recently installed the nvidia drivers. I have a black fuzzy line near the top of the screen. At the task bar(bottom of the screen.), all the menus now appear at the top of screen.
I have an installation of Maverick using command line only. It switches the monitor to standby after only about 5 minutes. Previous Ubuntu server and command line only versions do this too. Does anybody know where the setting is to change or disable this behavior? Perhaps something to do with ACPI?
While attempting to install an external screen on my laptop I messed up the KDE screen settings and upon reboot I get a command line interface.Which configuration file should I edit to set up my screen so that I get my Debian lenny KDE GUI back?
I want to access a file, and check the length of every line.After, i want to check and replace all lines with length over 10 characters, with a message.Does anyone have a clue on that?
I was running scripts overnight from the command line (inside Screen on a Linux EC2 instance) and some errors that I was not tracking occurred. I want to "scroll up" or view more of the history in Screen, but I cannot seem to find any commands that will work. I need to see the onscreen output "further up" than I can on my current screen. CTRL + a is supposed to put me into scroll mode inside Screen, but it's not working.
I have used the below command to do that successfully for the previous version of ububunt, but this time I failed to do that with Ubuntu 9.10. I know I can do that manually by "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" command. I try to change the name of /etc/init.d/gdm files, but the problem still exist.m"sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove"
I have noticed that there are some tiny white scanlines over the screen in linux, is this something known? specific graphics cards? just an issue with my setup?
Its hard to explain but its even horizontal scanlines, like small white lines over the screen, like every 3 line... was wondering if its my geforce 8800 or what it is?
