Is there a way (as in there in Windows), for not to group tasks of same application, in one single button in the task manager? so even every instance of one app appears as separate buttons?
View 1 RepliesI did a clean install of 11.04 and I have experienced that my separate X-screen does not have the program-name bar with the minimize, close-buttons etc. It's my third monitor is a separate X and it does not really work since I cant close programs, maximize windows or move them around. I cant even write anything on it. The first two monitors work great as one X-screen, just as they did in 10.10. Ubuntu Classic, no Unity. Two monitors (one X) on a ATI HD6970 One monitor (the X-screen that doesn't work properly) on a ATI HD4870
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have KDE 4.4 and Firefox 3.6. Whenever I click a link from a plasmoid widget, it tries to open Konqueror and another instance of Firefox. The page actually loads in the opened Firefox window, but the task bar shows an instance of Konqueror and another instance of Firefox, that keeps loading for a while then close. See image below:
I currently have setup the browser default application as "firefox". If I set this option to use the default application, it opens in Konqueror and I don't see additional windows in the task bar. If I change the option to "firefox %u", then it exhibit the same issue, but the process is much faster, so the loading windows don't stay for long in the task bar. Additionally, it opens the link on a new Firefox window and opens the page twice. Although Konqueror is not loaded, the bouncing icon next to the mouse pointer shows up and stay for a while.
how to stop the instance before shutting down. I tried dbstop and oracle stop, but neither work.

When a new instance of a running KDE 4 application (kwrite, konqueror, etc.) is run under opensuse 11.4 with KDE4 it seems that the default behaviour is to open a new tab in the running instance.
This occurs when the new instance is called from the command line; the start menu; the run dialogue; or a desktop icon, even when called from a separate desktop. In konqueror the menu option <File> <new window> opens a new tab and seems redundant.
How can a user force KDE 4 applications to run a new instance in a separate frame / window when another instance of that application is already running?
I recently removed Winblows Vista from my laptop and replaced it with Kubuntu 10.10 (I left the recovery partition on there, just in case). When I turn on the computer, the GRUB menu appears, I press enter, then a little flashing underscore appears on the screen in the top left hand corner. After a few seconds, the Kubuntu logo appears and I can log in.But yesterday I replace Kubuntu with Ubuntu 10.10. The Boot process is the same, but the little flashing underscore in the top left hand corner flashes for about 10 seconds longer then Kubuntu 10.10 did, and then a few paragraphs of text appears for a few seconds, then I am logged in automatically.Is this "unusual" boot process anything to worry about, or am I just being a noob.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a Linux instance on a Windows 7 PC and use dual-boot. I have created 64GB of space for Linux. Is this enough? When I boot from the live DVD and go through the setup, I get stuck setting up the unassigned space as a linux partition. I don't understand what the setup is trying to tell me and I'm afraid I'll wipe out Windows 7. The message I get says there isn't enough space even though the unassigned available area is 64GB. I am very timid about following what Yast2 is telling me because to my untrained eye it appears the setup wants to use my entire hard drive. Where can I find more information about the disk setup section of the installation process?
View 9 Replies View RelatedThis is a follow-on to "samba write failure crashes linux". It has the dmesg output when the write failure occurs.The remote server is os/2 v4.50 fp3.The failure occurred in this instance attempting to write a file from the localhost to a samba-mounted resource on a remote host. The failure always happens when at least 3 MB have been transferred. Smaller files are not a problem.
Other cases:
1. Saving any email (thunderbird) attachments to the localhost,
2. Downloading anything to the localhost using Firefox.
The most notable aspect are the phrases "kernel BUG" and "invalid opcode".

I have an instance of Nautilus File Browser that will not close or be killed, and it always opens to the same directory, kdenlive in my home directory.
Rebooting, logging out and in as someone else, then logging back in again as myself doesn't stop it. And, I'm afraid to uninstall Nautilus. I've tried Re-installing it to no avail.
Upgraded my 11.2 system to 11.3 today. Can't login anymore using gdm or xdm login window. The password prompt is displayed but no chars are echoed in the password field. when you click Login, it displays "Authentication failure" in the window. The logged messages in the /var/log/messages for the gdm-greeter are:

After I reinstalled OpenSuse 11.3. I have an interesting problem. When I start Umbrello or Ocullar under GNOME, windows of these applications are opened maximazied with no top panel (the one with close, minimize, maximize buttons and window name). I can't resize this window or move it somewhere.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have two network interfaces in my opensuse 11.3 system and want to control the interface which is used as default route. Somehow, it always picks the first card no matter what. In particular, I have tried setting DHCLIENT_PRIMARY_DEVICE to 'yes' resp. 'no' in both ifcfg-* files in /etc/sysconfig/network. Also, I have tried DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE but that also appears to be ignored. I remember having used this in the past with previous opensuse versions but it no longer seems to work. What is the correct way for doing this?

Opensuse 11.4 gnome/fglrx/compiz Something strange happens when I launch yast2, the controlpanel appears invisible. Meaning that if I ramdomly click around the desktop, the relevant yast modules will start. But I cannot see the controlpanel at all, alt-tab does nothing to remove it, it just stays on top of everything.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an EEE PC 1000H with currently XP and openSUSE 11.3 installed. I installed openSUSE 11.3 with the LXDE live CD yesterday and it worked without any troubles. Today after a 2 or 3 boots LXDE is behaving weird. The desktop is at the first moment totaly normal. But If you press ALT + F2 nothing happens. I can't launch any applications anymore except 2 I have a quicklauncher in the task for. (file manager and FF) But if I launch them I can't press any buttons, neither is there the black bar at the top which usually says something like "openSUSE.org - Mozilla Firefox" or so.
The weird thing about this is that I had this problem earlier this week after I installed openSUSE with the normal DVD. After one run or so the DVD was corrupted (don't know why) and I thought that might have caused it. But now since I installed openSUSE 11.3 with 2 DVDs/CDs (both images md5sum checked before burning) I don't know where the problem is.
Desktop goes blank after boot, then re-appears when shutdown. How do I fix? I turn on computer, it starts fine with the usual green boot screen, the little bar progresses then the screen goes blank. Then when I go to turn off (push power button), the desktop re-appears. What can i do to fix? I need my desktop back (I haven't made any changes to my system since last boot, and I have turned off, pulled cables out, put them in etc...it must be a software issue) I'm using OpenSuse 11.1 Gnome 32 bit

I want to make use of extra buttons on my Logitech RX1000 mouse.
For e.g. the zoom button I would like it to show windows on my desktop (ctrl+F9).
I've fired up xev and found out that this is button 8:

Then I've added to ~/.xbindkeysrc:

But that doesn't work at all.
I recently upgraded from 11.3 to 11.4 using the "zypper dup"-method, because I have made good experiences with that approach with my last upgrade. However I have some strange visual artifacts throughout the system now. When a button is in its pushed state, then at the left and top edge, where normally a drop-shadow would be drawn, is a white bar, as shown in the picture below.This also applies to progress-bars (for example when starting eclipse but also for all other applications)Also the systems feels slower than usual when switching between applications. Can't tell if this is important, but I have a Nvidia Quadro NVS 160M graphics card with the latest driver (version 260.19.44).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently installed opensuse 11.4 having come from 11.1 and when I started configuring VNC it appears that tightvnc is installed by default. I enabled remote administration and open firewall ports in YAST and found that the tightvnc viewer connects to my server ok. I do have a couple problems though;1. the password I set up when manually launching vncserver for the first time is not requested.2. When I launch a viewer connection it appears that an existing session is not being connected to since I log in as a user through the typical suse login screen and when I exit the session, all terminals and apps launched during that session are ended. On my 11.1 installation, after exiting a session all work was persistent and not ended.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a wireless keyboard with touchpad However the position of the mouse buttons is very unconfortable and so I would like to remap the mouse button to some kes on the keyboard.
I would like to use the media keys which are present on the keyboard. They are useless to me since most of the programs that I use have their own keyboard shortcuts for controls such as play, stop etc.
I mapped the keys using xev, and for instance I found that the "play" key mapped to keycode 172
by trying someting like
xmodmap -e "keycode 172 = Pointer_Button1"
nothing happens.
I use opensuse 11.3/gnome on lenovo sl-510. I have the problem. The laptop doesn't reacts on some of additional buttons like wireless on/off or cover sensor. Xev doesn't reacts as well. Everything worked untill I removed and reistalled pulseaudio and some other packs.
The questions are:
1. what could I do to make a problem - did I killed some daemon of smth - I just can't remember;
2. how to fix it?
I have just installed openSUSE 11.4 a few days ago, and added nvidia propietary drivers.
After that, buttons that are selected are with two white lines. One on the top, and one on the left. I don't know what is it all about, but I think it may be nvidia's problem.
