Ubuntu :: 10.10 - Gnome Terminals Open At 80X23

Jul 8, 2011

In 10.10 I could open a terminal and it would open to the ordinary size 80x24. After upgrading to Natty, all my terminals open at 80x23 instead. Someone told me that it was due to the font size being large, but I don't want to use the obvious fix and decrease the font size. (I'm using the GNOME desktop, I hated Unity.)

Ubuntu :: Open Terminals At Startup?

Sep 12, 2010

I have Lucid Lynx (10.04) installed, and have this annoyance with various terminals and the Help Menu automatically opening at startup. So every time i boot up i get a screen full of open terminals:

1. Ubuntu Help Centre
2. File Browser
3. Desktop Terminal

I have tried looking at the Startup menu under Preferences but there is no entry for any of the above.

Ubuntu :: Opening Applications (only Gnome-terminals) In Defined Workspace?

Aug 18, 2010

Ideally I would like to set a keyboard shortcut to open a set of applications. The applications (mainly different gnome-terminals) should be opened in different, previously defined workspaces. I had a look around but could not find a simple solution (maybe it could be done in devilspie but I would like to avoid that).If I limit myself only to gnome-terminal and instead of using the keyboard shortcuts call the application in the shell the placement of the terminal can be done by using "--geometry" (see "man gnome-terminal" and "man X") e.g. "gnome-terminal --geometry 50x20+200+300". wmcrtl show me that my 6 workspaces are treated as one desktop (my interpretation - maybe wrong):

Code:
$ wmctrl -d
0 * DG: 7680x1024 VP: 0,0 WA: 0,1 1280x1023 Desk 1

Ubuntu :: Cannot Open Links In Gnome

Nov 19, 2010

A series of updates were suggested to update by update manager yesterday and I updated them. My computer crashed a few hours later and after rebooting there is this annoying problem with links. Nautilus can no longer open samba shares smb:// nor can it open web site addresses when I click on a link in evolution. I did some digging around and found that gvfs-bin was not installed and it was suggested on the forums that this might be the problem. I installed it but it made no difference. There's a related thread I posted to here [URL]

Also when you go to the "connect to server" option under places, the only thing listed as an option is "custom location". Even worse, my external hard disk doesn't automount anymore either.

I am using ubuntu 10.10 x64 bit.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Eye Of Gnome Aka EOG Does Not Open Some Jpgs?

Dec 16, 2010

Using Ubuntu Lucid & Eye of GNOME 2.30.

Eye of Gnome aka EOG does not open some jpgs, here's what happens.

With some jpgs only, most work fine!!

If you open one of the problematic jpg files by clicking on the jpg in Nautilus, EOG never fully opens, the process starts but the application's window does not get displayed - I then kill the process with kill -9 PID.

The same jpg opens in other viewers, EG. FSpot and OO Draw on Linux, and IrfanView on Windows.

If you start EOG from the App menu or the command line and drag a problematic jpg to it, the jpg is also not displayed, nothing happens. BUT if you start EOG with a working jpg and, once that is being shown, drag a problematic jpg from Nautilus to EOG's window then now the problematic jpg is displayed.

PS. Anyone know if there is an Eye of GNOME 2.32 (latest stable) deb package which I can download or if I can install EOG 2.32 from some other repositories? Aptitude and Synaptic have only v. 2.30.

Ubuntu :: Gnome-Do To Open Folders In Nautilus?

Mar 12, 2011

I rely heavily on Gnome-Do to open folders in Nautilus.

This worked just fine in Ubuntu Desktop. However, in Openbox it opens folders in Chromium.

This is annoying for two reasons:

One, obviously i would like to view the selected folders in Nautilus.

And, two, i would like to set Firefox 4 as the browser of choice when opening anything via Gnome-Do. It is set as my browser of choice in Preferred Applications.

I have searched for configuration files, but see no entry i could modify, and would not know where to begin writing my own commands.

I am sure many people must use Gnome-Do in Openbox. If you are one of them, did you encounter similar issues? If so, how did you fix them?

Ubuntu :: Can't Open Gnome Appearance Properties

I dont know why but I cant open the appearance properties anymore.The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.(Details: serial 693 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0)(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Ubuntu :: Default Open With - Add Registry To The Gnome Right Click Menu

May 16, 2011

so in Windows I remember I could add to the registry under the * folder in classes_root under Shell, I could add any command I wanted. That way no matter what file I right clicked on I could have EDIT or OPEN with that file.

Is there a way to add this to the gnome right click menu? A default always there for all filetypes? I have UltraEdit Linux installed and want to have the same functionality I had when I used to use windows.

Ubuntu :: Lost Gnome After Activating Open GL In Compiz / Get It Back?

Jun 12, 2011

I ran the compiz --replace command and I was playing about with Compiz. I wanted to active that rotating desktop cube. The screen froze when I activated it and I ended up doing a hard reboot by pressing and holding the power button.

Now, when I log in, the gnome bar at the top has gone, the window 'decorations' have gone (no minimize, etc) and the new gnome launcher on the left of the screen has gone

Any advice on how to get thing back to the way they were?

OpenSUSE :: Open Kde Or Gnome Desktop In A X Server?

Apr 27, 2011

What I try is to execute Linux programs from Windows. What I do:

- I run an X Sever in Windows (Xmin).
- I connect to Linux server using putty.
- Stablish DISPLAY to Windows X Server.
- Run Linux application.

Really, what I do for simplifying the work is create, in a shared folder, Windows direct access to do this work. Ex: I create a link called "tora - Run Oracle Administration Tool.lnk".

When users want to run Tora in Windows, they don't have to install it. Just press the link and it runs a .cmd which does the previous operations. So users can run konsole, LibreOffice, tora, ... and all Linux programs as if they where installed in Windows Clients. And as the Linux and Windows computers are joined to Active Directory, each users access has its own configuration for each program.

Thus, they can try this programs without having to install them.

So as I can run all Linux programs... Why not allowing to run a remote desktop (I know I can do it with Vnc, Xrdp, NX, ...) If user run "konsole", a Linux konsole is open in Windows client. And then he can open X programs (I don't create links for all Linux programs, so the can run the konsole link and run any program). After displaying konsole, if I type "konqueror", konqueror is opened in Windows client.

If type kdesktop, desktop of kde is open, but the menu bar, tool bar doesn't appear...

Here is an image: [URL]

I detail it:

- My client is a Windows 7.
- Open a konsole in a remote linux (titled shell-konsole)
- Run kdesktop command.
- A new window titled "KDE Desktop" is opened.

But no menu or application bar is opened. An it doesn't takes my configuration (my configuration is Spanish).

How can I add menu and application bar to that desktop?

Debian Multimedia :: Gnome-terminal Refuses To Open

Jan 30, 2015

I updated my Jessie system today. Nothing crucial in the apt-get list as far as I can see, perhaps it's unrelated. Anyway, now I cannot open the terminal any longer. Launching `gnome-terminal` shows the app name in the menu bar, a spinning wheel, and then after a few seconds nothing. It doesn't appear in the list of processes, either. I can still log into the text shell via ctrl-alt-F1.

I also added `LC_TIME="en_GB.UTF-8"` to `/etc/environment` to get rid of the American date format. Could it be the cause? I just tried to launch the terminal from the JVM. I get this output:

Code: Select all(process:2629): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.gnome.Terminal exited with status 8

I will delete the environment variable again and reboot, but I wonder if I can still have the British date format?

Fedora Installation :: Can't Open Openoffice 3.2 In Gnome / Resolve This?

Nov 11, 2010

I have installed open office using yum install.

To install OpenOffice you can use yum like:
connect to the internet
open a console
su -
root password
yum install openoffice.org-base openoffice.org-calc openoffice.org-calc openoffice.org-draw openoffice.org-draw openoffice.org-writer
(all on one line)

This will install the man packages for Openoffice. To see all packages available for OpenOffice use:

yum list openoffice*

I am running fedora 14.

I have no openoffice icons on the desktop, or items in the menus.
