Is there any way to turn off desktop flipping in Enlightenment. It is getting extremely annoying being suddenly switched to another desktop when my mouse pointer touches the edge of the screen.On the Virtual Desktops configuration screen, I have everything I could find related to flipping unselected, but I'm still getting desktop flipping.

I just picked up a 3g modem from T-mobile that I cannot get to work with 10.04Inserting the device and running lsusb gives Bus 002 Device 002: ID 19d2:1201 ONDA Communication S.p.A. I installed usb-modeswitch but I don't know how to configure the usb-modeswitch.conf I know I need to provide the default vendor and product as what is given above vendor=0x19d2 and product=0x1201 but I don't know what to put for the target vendor and product. I'm sure vendor is the same 0x19d2, but the product.. I don't know what to put for the target product so the usb storage will flip to usb modem.
Or maybe I'm completely wrong about how I'm going about this.I've researched this numerous places:[URL]nd I can see the basic idea of how to proceed, but I think I'm stuck at flipping the device from storage to modem mode.I've got 14 days to return this thing if I can't get it to work. I'm willing to mess around for all 14 of them if we can get this to work and help out any other ubuntu users who want to buy this device.
Looking at the list of nVidia Geforce packages they all say "NVIDIA graphics driver kernel module for GeForce 6xxx and newer GPUs".. Does this means the installer will install the correct driver for y GT 9500 or do I keep flipping the pages until I find a 9xxx? ..also would the "nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-desktop" be the correct one to select for my system?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI installed Scientific Linux just for fun, but I find the repositories much too lacking. So, order to tackel that problem, I decided to try to install the fedora-release-14 package. Truns out, sl-release is blocking my success because sl-release obsoletes fedora-release. Then I tried the Rawhide one and it is still obsoleted. How do I add this Fedora Base repositories to Scientific Linux?

I have installed numlockx. Works fine in terms of turning Num Lock on automatically before the login screen. However, once logged in, Num Lock is automatically turned off. Is there a setting in Debian that I am missing so that Num Lock stays on all the time?

View 14 Replies View RelatedSo last night suddenly my computer started running really slow. Like it would take a couple of minutes for a window to open. I tried to start System Monitor to see what was going on, but couldn't get it to launch. At first I thought something had grabbed the CPU, but eventually I discovered that something was writing a massive amount to the hard disk. The intensive disk activity continued for about 20 minutes as I watched nervously. Just as the disk activity suddenly stopped ABRT popped up a message that disappeared to fast to read fully, but it said something about a file that was too large.
This morning I discovered that about 9 GB of my hard disk had been used up. Using "find -size +1G" I found an 8.6 GB file in /var/spool/abrt /ccpp-1291706342-2244/ called "coredump."I don't know what a coredump is or how to look inside the file to see what might have caused its creation. But I do know that ABRT has not said a word about the incident.
I'm running Suse 11.3 with KDE4. While typing thismorning I inadvertently somehow disabled the keyboard (the mouse worked fine).I discovered that the keyboard worked on bootand I could log into my account (or other accounts)with the keyboard, but ONLY within my account wasthe keyboard dead. Rebooting the computer did NOTcure the problemI finally cured it by logging in as root, and renamingthe .kde4 directory in my home directory as .kde4xand then logging back in as myself.But (a) what did I do and how did I do it and (b) isthere a cleaner way to undo this should I do it again?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I mistype a name of an executable program in terminal, ubuntu tries to search for similar programs in packages and then suggests names. This takes time, slowing down work and entirely useless for me. How to turn this feature off?
I personally can't even find a reason for implementing this feature and rather making it turned on by default. If someone needs a tool, he/she can search through packages.

my laptop is an Acer5920G with an NVIDIA GeForce8600m GS video card. I am running Lucid Lynx on it. My problem is that I don't know how to turn the screen backlighting on - my screen seems to be on energy saving mode, i.e. quite dark. I somehow managed to turn the backlight back on the other day, but I have no idea how - and it went back to non-backlit mode a few days later. What should I do?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just installed ubuntu studio and it looks better than ever. I have an ice1712 soundcard and I have NEVER had it work on ANY linux distribution that used pulseaudio (I'm guessing that this problem has been around for at least two years) so I proceeded with my usual way of fixing things which is to just get rid of pulseaudio. Well it worked like a charm, uninstall pulseaudio, reboot and there's my sound. Here is my problem, I went to >system >preferences >sound to turn of the system sounds. I get a message, "waiting for sound system to respond" Does anyone know how I can make these sounds go away. I'm happy to try anything.
