Just installed debian linux. I did the smallest install possible because I didn't really know what I was doing. I have the linux style cmd prompt on the screen. I want a windows style gui - with text editor and other windows for copying and pasting. How do I get that on my linux version ?

Anyways here's the issue, some windows File Menu bar is like the classic GTK style and doesn't look anything like the other windows, even though its an updated version. For example this happens on Gnome Terminal (3.0) and Empathy (3.0) and Nautilus (3.0) and a few others, but Firefox is fine, etc.

I am looking for a good RSS program that can run on the desktop command line style.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm running Debian squeeze and my packages are all up to date. I usually do my updates by typing 'aptitude update' and 'aptitude safe-upgrade' at the command line as root.Sometimes when doing regular updates aptitude, or the package that's being updated, shows a ncurses-style dialog box on the screen, usually to have the user 'OK' a change, or to select which version of a configuration file to keep. Recently I've found these dialog boxes to be slightly messed up... in that the spot at the bottom where I would expect the 'OK' button to be is replaced by nonsensical characters.
There seems to be no problem with the way that the program functions, as I can press the tab key and then the return key, or just the return key alone, and the dialog goes away, seemingly doing it's job. But I would like to know what this program is. It's likely been updated recently, but looking through /var/log/aptitude and /var/log/aptitude.1.gz I cannot figure out which one it is. I'd like to file a bug report, or simply be able to follow the progress of someone else's bug. That's all.
I'm looking for a way to get a Mac OS X style dock on Xubuntu, I tried cairo and it was ok but I just got a black border around the dock which was annoying. And I tried looking up how to fix it and most places recommend turning on compositing which I had already had on in xfce. I'm not necessarily looking for animated stuff, just an icon based dock like that.

I am trying to read the info for Groff using KDE Help Center. The paragraphs take turns in using monospace and sans-serif. There is no apparent logic behind this variability. Additionally, several lists are misplaced (not indented).

Closest I came was a couple of Mac-OS style docks.
I use a few KDE apps in gnome, and I like them to look as in KDE with elegant qt style buttons and controls,however they look like whatever but what qt applications look like.

Several times now I've for some reason had a different style on my desktop when I boot until I power the computer down. Frames still look the same but applications look different and the panel at the top changes. I tried changing the appearance but the frames are the only things that change. I've attached some screen shots. It should look just like it does after a fresh install.

I use Linux (Arch Linux with KDE) and Mac, and one of the things I really miss in Linux is OS X's application switcher: one keyboard shortcut (by default Cmd-Tab) switches between applications, and a different one (by default Cmd-`) switches between windows of the application you're currently using. For instance, to switch from Firefox to Terminal I would use Cmd-Tab, and to switch between multiple Terminal windows I'd use Cmd-`.
In KDE, at least, the default behavior is simply to switch between any open windows when you use Alt-Tab. Can anyone recommend an application switcher that would provide Mac-like functionality? Or perhaps a window manager that would do so?

View 12 Replies View RelatedBack in the day when I was using openSUSE and KDE3 I really loved the way the menu entries were organized into submenus. (For example: the Multimedia menu used to have the following submenus: Audio, TV, Video, etc.) I've been using neither openSUSE nor KDE3 for more than a year (switched to Arch + KDE4).
Not that I have anything against openSUSE. On the contrary, I think it's a fantastic distro, but the time came when I needed to move on (going rolling release was what finally sold Arch to me). However, I have taken with me many of the things I learned to love on Suse. One of them was the menu's layout, which for me works better that vanilla kde's. What I would like to know is:
1) If that menu layout was something from KDE3 that got lost in the move to KDE4, or something SUSE added.
2) Which Suse package provides the layout (the default menu layout is given by menu files on /etc/xdg). I would like to take a look and copy it to my Arch install.
