Im trying to "ssh -X" my university server for accessing cadence, but i get this:
HTML Code:
*Warning* X Window Display Initialization Failure
*Warning* (DISPLAY "<not defined>")
Apparantly i need to assign it my machine IP e.g like:
HTML Code: setenv DISPLAY machine:0.0
But unfortunately it still doesnt solve my problem. All it does is stop printing this warning message as a result.
So I installed the Unison synch software with sudo apt-get install unison-gtk. When I set up the two directories for synchronization it looks like this: $ unison ssh:\SERVER\pathpath /var/www/path/path/path
I am getting this error in terminal Uncaught exception Gtk.Error("GtkMain.init: initialization failed ml_gtk_init: initialization failed") Fatal error: exception Util.Fatal("Error in getLogch: /home/path/.unison/unison.log: No such file or directory"
Hi when i run the updater or through yast i get the following

looking through my repositories list it seems it has added one from anything i have installed. What are the necessary ones?
I have installed opensuse 11.2 64 bit on my pc. But I have some troubles with nepomuk and desktop search. I, in system settings pannel, have tried to enable nepomuk and strigi. But strigi show me this error message:

The /etc/profile said that i should do that in /etc/profile.local.I create /etc/profile.local, set the aliases, then i reboot.Now i've got a broken bash enviroment. Prompt has gone, ls colors gone, useful aliases (md=mkdir) gone.I've got this prompt: 'bash-4.0$' instead of the 'username@hostname:actual dir'.The root account has got the same errors, so i think i broke something system-wide.I removed the profile.local but the problem stays.What should i do to regain the standard bash enviroment?

I am installing from the scratch a 11.3 on a PC on which previously 11.1 did run flawlessly. (Athlon 3700 with 3GB ram and Asrock socket 939 mainboard. Graphics is Nvidia. The installation comes every time up to 90% when it arrives at "font initialization). No error message is displayed. The little "cursor wheel" is still turning but else, there is no activity.
DVD from an sha1 checked and MD5 doublechecked download was burned with lowest speed in K3b and verified by the same program post burn, with full success of every verification.
Tried to change DVD reader but does not change the result. Runs speedy up to that step.
Earlier I have no problems when I install opensuse. After installation the network runs and I can run online updating in yast for the system. But since a few version it doesn't work after installation and I don't know why. I think maybe the errors could happen because I have no
internet connection. Today I install 11.4 and get this message when I want to run online updates in yast.
There is an error in the repository initialization
'repo-update' [URL]

I think this problem stars with 11.1 or 11.2.
I installed Xubuntu 11.04 a few days ago, and everything's been more or less fine since then. But I installed some updates last night, paying no attention to what they were, and this morning I logged in to find problems.
Open windows do not get registered with window listings (like in the top panel, for instance). All windows open above desktop panels, and cannot be moved behind them. Some windows open with their title bars above the top frame of the screen, but Alt + Click/Drag doesn't grab the window. Maximizing and minimizing windows do not work. There is simply no reaction to clicking them. I logged out and also restarted the system to see if it was a fluke, but it's not.
Otherwise, everything still seems to be functional. I'm writing this post from the laptop that's having the problem. I'm going to try uninstalling the crappy ATI video drivers and see if that resolves the problem.
I would like to change the taskbar Minimized/Maximized view. Right now the active windows are protruding, i would like the opposite effect.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble writing an Xlib application that displays a window. The most frustrating thing is that I've written applications like this before, and never had any problems. For some reason I cannot get this program to work properly. I'm running KDE and when I launch the program, a "button" for the application will appear on the application panel, however, no window will display. It is possible to right click on the panel button and select the Close item which will successfully close the window.
The following is source code that when built will exhibit the behaviour described above code...
I've been experimenting with the system and as these things go I've done something and I can't undo it through lack of understanding. I've managed to disable the display of minimised windows in the panel at the bottom of the screen. To compensate I'm using a Widget which allows me to get back to the window as I need it. But I'd prefer to be able to simply click on the panel.

I am trying to write a small gtk+-2 program to display whatever image it is given and I was wondering if anyone out there has done something similar. I am not too familiar with writing programs for gtk and its been a while since I've fiddled with C. I went over the tutorial for gtk and it seams pretty easy to get a window to display, but I do not see anything that refers to loading an image or displaying it in the window. I am wondering if this can be done purely with gtk or will I need to use some type of image library like imlib2?
View 3 Replies View RelatedUsually the menu bar, and menus, are displayed within the applications main window. With a small screen this obviously wastes space so my idea is to reserve a location, small square space probably on a corner, on the screen that when clicked it will pop out the current selected applications menu, allow selection, and then disappear again. The application itself would look fullscreen, or if windowed will still not have a menu bar but access available via the "square."
Likewise instead of the usual task bar and "applications/places/system" menus (ala, ubuntu) a second square would be reserved which would pop-out and show the running tasks, followed by the menus, and allow selection, then disappear. Is this possible with GTK+ as it stands, as I'm guessing that by default everything must be contained within an applications main window?
Although having said that, gimp allows the tool windows to be external to the edited document, so perhaps it would be possible to make the menu bar into a toolbox? I guess the difficult problem would be how to make the currently selected applications "tool square" be on top when there could be multiple applications running. The "tool square" and "task/menu square" could be transparent (maybe just an outline) so that although always there they wouldn't hide any underlying windows/programs/etc.
Basically the idea is to get rid of wasted screen, in ubuntu (on gtk/gnome) a minimum of 5 "bars" is wasted screen real-estate:- 1, Running aplications: 2, Ubuntu's main menu bar: 3, Applications status bar: 4, Applications menu bar: 5, Applications description (min/max/close) bar. Take all the above and replace it with two clickable, potentially invisible, squares say where the default "hide all windows" and "deleted trashcan" icons currently reside.
I have a bit of a problem w/ the windowing UI when I drag any window left, the display gets messed up (see attached screen shot). It doesn't matter what the program is, even happens in explorer. I've done some searching of the Internetz and this form and all I could find was this bug, that doesn't have any updates on it:
Does anyone know of a fix for this? I can make the lines go away by triggoring a repaint (by either dragging another window on top of this one or minimizing and maximizing the problem window, but it's still a bit annoying.I'm running Fedora 14 and have ran all of the updates it prompted me to run.
I'm using ubuntu Maverick on a Dell 1545 and I'm pretty much a newbie to ubuntu. Most of the things have been fine so far, I just plugged it into a proxyless internet connection and adjusted my location for time zone (I've been using a porxy server previously for internet which didn't allow changes in location and time zone work) and since then that calendar has moved out of the scope on the top right corner of my screen and I'm unable to move it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been messing about with my themes lately and was wondering if it was possible to force the title of a window to display on the right side and have the buttons on the right. I'm already aware of using gconf-edit to change the order and position of the buttons but I can't seem to figure out how to move the title.

The screen-shot explains all. I'm sure this is just a setting SOMEWHERE in Gnome but I'd be danged if I can find it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow can i send a password window to display?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI noticed that while Compiz has every keyboard shortcut imaginable for moving windows between desktops, there's no shortcut for moving a window to a specific display when using dual monitors.
So far, I've found the best method is to use the command line automation tool: xdotool - [url]
Here's what I did:Test out the xdotool in a new terminal window using this command
Code:
This should move your terminal window 100 pixels in from the top left of the leftmost display.
Find out the top-left coordinates of your rightmost display by using the Nvidia X Server Settings tool in Main menu > Administration or via the terminal:
Code:
Go to X Server Display Configuration and click the rightmost Display in the layout section. Its position offset should be displayed in the position field. Make a note of these two numbers.
Create a script to move your window, either to the leftmost screen or the rightmost screen, using this code or similar:
Code:
Remember, the number at the end is an argument that denotes the display (1 for left, 2 for right). Assign a keyboard shortcut to your custom shortcut. Repeat for the right display. Now when you press the keyboard shortcut, the active window should be moved to either the left or right display!
I have a fresh install of OpenSUSE 11.4 64bit and I have installed the AMD Display drivers for my Radeon HD 5970. Everything seems to be working quite well. I have a multiple monitor setup (1280x1024 monitor and a 1920x1080 monitor).
I have my primary display set to 1920x1080, however when I try to enable the second display, I get a CRTC error that the display is over the maximum (1920x1920). If I enable both monitors at lower resolutions, there is no problem.
I have done a fair bit of reading and have been unable to determine where this maximum is set, or how to change it. I'd like to be able to run both monitors at their native resolutions.
I'm trying to host a dedicated game server for a game called garry's mod. I have to use wine *PUKE*, because the developer of the game doesn't think linux is that great, so I don't have binaries to get the server running.
I got wine installed just fine with no errors. I have vnc installed and running, and able to make connections. (nothing but a never ending black hole of darkness) This leads me to the issue. I tried to launch the installation of Steam to get the garrys mod server running, and this is the out put, and you can see my actions that I took to see if I could get things rolling, unfortunitly, I have encountered an error that I just don't know how to solve.

Running 10.04 64-bit. After logging on, the title bars around all the windows are missing. Adding "metacity --replace" as a startup command resolves the problem, but something's obviously wrong.
Doesn't occur on my other computer, so probably hardware related.

i want to create a command that can be typed in any old terminal window that would display a message on screen for anyone who typed it. is this possible? i just want to do this for the randomness of it.
and cuz i need to get used to messing with terminal windows.
for example i would like to have "rawr" setup as a command to display a message on screen in a popup window with an "Ok" button to close the popup. i googled it but all i came up with was creating commands to launch applications without having to type the full path/command. not what i'm looking for. thanks in advance!!!
I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 from 9.04; 2 days ago using an alternaate CD. Everything went fine and after the install I ran System Update and got all the latest updates too. Now when I boot the PC to Ubuntu, after a while it pops up a dialog box, saying:
Code:
Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode, you may need to update your configuration to solve this:

The screen is also in a frame, it never fits the monitor screen completely, however I can change the screen resolutions, it displays
Code:

There is also the problem with compiz, I'm unable to turn on the Visual effects. I do not have any propriety Grpahic Driver Cards, just the default provided by Intel.
