OpenSUSE :: Text Gone In Application Browser In 11.3 GNOME?
Nov 27, 2010
I'm running openSUSE 11.3 with GNOME. I went through the Software Manager and deleted every instance of OpenOffice.org that was left after changing to LibreOffice, and also installed Beagle (+dependencies) and Tracker with some additional packages. Then I noticed that in the Application Browser there is no text next to the icons. Only the small version of the icons centered with no text (screenshot below).
The problem is I have no idea how to restore it to the way it was. I've already deleted Beagle and Tracker and their packages to no avail. I also noticed that YaST and Control Center both look fine. It's only the Application Browser.

Is it possible to add a menu option to allow me to open a program as root from inside the application browser window? In windows if you hold ctrl and right click a program icon your given the option to "run as" (windows equivalent of sudo). Is there a way to get something like that in the application browser in gnome?

Anyone know how to change the icon sizes in Gnome's Application Browser or Control Center?
It seems mine used to be larger but now they are quite small. I looked in gconf editor but I didn't find anyhing.

I like openSuSE, but the main thing I miss from Ubuntu is the ability to have complete control over the applications menu. Ubuntu had a clean menu where everything was one level deep, with pretty basic categories. But opening alacarte in openSuSE (running 11.2 with GNOME) is an absolute mess. There are categories for "Astronomy", "Kidsgames", and a whole bunch of folders that I would never use. And it's nearly impossible to get rid of them. Selecting delete almost never works; the closest I've gotten was to re-name a whole bunch of ".directory" files so that the system wouldn't find them, but it still created the majority of them, only this time with generic folders over the default icons.
Plus, I would like to be able to change which application goes to which category in the Application Browser. That menu is much more clean, but I would like to create a "Games" section for it, and move my text editors from Utility to Development. I know that most of the .desktop files are in /usr/share/applications (I have a couple in /usr/local/share), the directories are defined in /usr/share/desktop-directories and ~/.local/share/desktop-directories, and the menu itself seems to define categories in /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu. But despite knowing all of this, I still have no idea how to clean up alacarte and how to move around launchers in the Application Browser.

After last updating I'm coming across some issues mainly about web browsing: I get different text fonts than usual (on Google search for example, but also on some web sites) and small fonts appear with a sort of halo... Moreover I get some difficulties in video streaming: after a while it stops with no apparent reason...

How do you turn off the Labels in the TaskBar that are next to your Running Applications? You know, to basically make it look like Windows 7 where you only see the Icons.I'm running openSuse 11.3 with the KDE 4.4 desktop

I put a text file on my desktop and added a couple lines of text with gedit. File type shows text/plain. Double-click opens the file in gedit which is what I want. I'm using the file to temporarily hold some snips of code that I copy from file to file, but when I copy some html into the file and save it, now file properties show it's text/html and a double-click opens the file in firefox, which isn't what I want. Is there some way to keep the file type from changing itself?

I am looking for a method to run a shell script or open an application through the web browser.For example, open OpenOffice from the browser (without going through the menus).Is it possible?My ultimate goal to pass an argument through the browser to a script. I know it is pretty far fetched for my very limited abilities but I wanna try. For example I want to pass an URL or a text string from the browser to a shell script

For some reason when i'm working on things or while using a browser the current window gets dark (shaded) and everything freezes. The only way i can get rid of it is by turning my computer off. Why does this happen and how can i stop it from happening? It happens alot while using audio recording software.

Just wondering if anyone knew of a really good text based terminal browser to use when I am not running X. I can use Links and do not have too much trouble navigating, but I have not been able to set the screen to view the entire page (I have to move off screen to read the whole page.) So, if anyone knows an easier text browser that is a little easier to set the screen options with code...

All of a sudden, none of the applications are able to connect to the internet, except the web browser. I use Google Chrome and sometimes Mozilla firefox.
There is a network proxy and I did apply the network proxy setting system wide.
Applications like Dropbox, Messenger etc stopped connecting to internet which were working very well until yesterday.

How do you paste text copied from some outside vim source (like a web browser)? That's the one thing that bugs me. I'm trying to more proficient w/ vim, but when I read some instructions on the web that say copy and paste this text into yadayda.conf, I can do that w/ gedit, but can't figure it out in vim.

I've just made the switch from KDE to GNOME and I'm still working on making the transition and there is one thing that I can't find.
In KDE, I had the ability to right-click on a desktop icon and go to the "run as" property and tell it to run this app as someone else (i.e. root). This was very useful for things like file manager if I wanted to crank it up in supervisor mode. I would like to find the same ability in GNOME but can't seem to locate it.
In a similar vein, I've set up my repositories and I've tried to do auto-update but when I run it, it keeps stating I don't have the authorization. I guess I need to run it as root but I can't find a place on the icon to specify this setting.

Struggling to find right place to post, or for FAQs, or anything, because reading web browser is such a strain: can use Firefox v. happily in MS Windows, but, new to Linux and Fedora (14), I can't physically SEE where to start modifying appearance of either desktop or browser, which seem minute. I'm sure there's a really simple route if someone can just start me off.

I have some assorted shell scripts and PERL scripts that I sometimes need to edit. When I right click on them within Nautilus, it offers to open them in Notepad. I can select Text Editor and put a tick in the box to 'remember this application', but it doesn't remember and next time I have Notepad again. It's a pain to have to navigate to Text Editor every time I need to open one of these files. Is there any way to make it stick?
