My system Debian base(5.0) + fluxbox...I am using idesk to create icon in fluxbox, but it is so inconvenience. Are there any alternative of idesk that makes it more convenience to crate icon on fluxbox?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm fairly new to the Ubuntu community, having dl'ed Ubuntu 11.04 little more than a couple of weeks ago, deleting my Windows completely. I'm sure this has been said before, but I'm trying to find a good VoIP I can use to call my Windows using girlfriend who is currently very far away. Skype for Linux just crashes for me after a minute or two, Ekiga only allows me to make a call to any contact ONCE, then I can never do it again, tried Faceflow and couldn't even see or hear her. I'm running out of options, it seems. Will I really have to go back to windows just to see her?

View 2 Replies View RelatedOver the past few months Nomachine's NX Server has deteriorated to the point where it's unusable, as detailed in this thread for one machine. On my other machine it works, but I cannot do apt-get dist-upgrades as it spews forth messages like, "insserv: Starting nxsensor depends on stop-bootlogd and therefore on system facility `$all' which can not be true!". So I give up on them.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI used to use tomboy in Gnome, now a changed to KDE 4, and i want to use tomboy, but it needs a lot of gnome libraries (~300MB), so i don't want to install it.
Is there some GUI for tomboy in qt?, or Is there some kde application that uses the same note files of tomboy and can sinchronize the data online?
I want to create some scheduled jobs in a CentOS server. These jobs are simple and repeatable, but the scheduling is complicated. I want a series of jobs to start every day but Monday, and not on the last day of the month. These jobs depend on software execution outside the server ( a Windows application) so if the Windows app fails, I need to temporarily suspend the cron jobs so I can straighten out the Windows server.
I've looked over some cron alternatives and nothing seems suitable. Am I stuck with cron and the limitations of crontab, or are there some programmatic things I can do in cron that I don't know about?
I am wondering if there's a better alternative than jigdo. I was trying to help out and choose what is recommended but this jigdo crap is ridiculous. Didn't work for me and the primitive bad design of it is a waste of time.
Maybe Debian should consider joining today's technology. There are supposed to be hybrid isos you can download and even Ubuntu is finally joining the camps doing that.But, there's nothing on Debian web pages mentioning 'hybrid isos.' Who uses jigdo anyway?There's no way of entering the url or any instructions that make it intuitive. Get rid of the jigdo and do something different....

View 2 Replies View RelatedSPICE has been getting there for a while now and seems to be a very capable mechanism for running remote desktops. (You see where I'm going?) Virtual desktops have a good chance of becoming all the rage if SPICE gets a low enough latency implementation. But what about applying that low latency implementation to running over a physical layer? Who says the host machine has to be a virtual box? (See where I'm going now?) Does anyone know if I can start using SPICE as an alternative to NX for example?

I am tired of watching fsck check my filesystem when my eeepc 901 shuts down abruptly due to a crash. I know that with a journaling filesystem, I won't have to wait for a check. However, I am well aware of the poor I/O performance of the SSD, so I can imagine using a journaling filesystem being even more frustrating, since there will be constant writes to the journal? I will buy a new laptop without such a crummy ssd someday but, is there anything I can do now, on the software side of things?

I've been having some issues with the speed of firefox recently (on a netbook) and have been trying out other browsers such as chrome and midori. Currently I'm using xmarks, which fits my needs nicely however, I'm looking for an alternative that gives similar functionality and would allow me to access my bookmarks from several different computers (using both midori and chrome browsers).
xmarks has a development version for chrome, which is not working at the moment, and I cannot find any plans for xmarks in midori.
