Ubuntu :: After Upgrade Missing Top Of Application Windows?
Aug 18, 2011
I am having problems with the display of all application windows after upgrading to 11.04.The problem is present in both Unity and 'Classic'The top of application windows appear behind what used to be called the launcher (ie. the panel at the very top of the screen).Application windows can not be resized to fill the full screen either - so I have about 3cm of space at the bottom of the screen that application windows' can't go into and about 12cm on the right of the screen too. 3 example screen shots (in classic mode) attached .My system is:Release 11.04 (2.6.38-10-generic onx86_64)Nvidia Graphics card GeForce 9400 GTAm using CompizConfig (CompizConfig Settings Manager 0.9.4)Screen resolution is 1440 x 900

After upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 I lost my windows control buttons (minimize, maximize, close)
Code:
metacity --replace
Command works to restore my buttons but I've got a couple problems
1. I have to leave this terminal open permanently. If I try to close it (and "kill" the process) not only do I lose my windows controls but my keyboard stops working entirely.
2. Have to put this in every time I log back in.
Is there a better solution for restoring my windows control buttons (i.e., one that doesn't require me to open a terminal every time I log in?)

I am having a problem with a particular application not showing in the GNOME taskbar in Ubuntu 10.10 x64.The application is Novell Groupwise, a Java-based e-mail client.It does, however show when I press ALT-TAB to bring up the window switcher. It also shows in "The GNOME Panel" (desktop switcher) when it is in the foreground.All other applications correctly display in the task bar (Window List)

My application bars are all missing their menu bars. They were showing up (along with the application title) on the top panel but I ran 'nohup gnome-panel' to at least make my system partially usable (i.e. this restores the top panel and the bottom 'bar' that has the running application icons and it also restored my close/minimize/maximize buttons to my windows).

I downloaded mupen64plus from the software center the other day but I can't find it anywhere! Every other program shows up fine. I tried making a manual launcher and that failed too.... Software center says it is installed, but it simply doesn't show up!

I am reasonably experienced with Fedora 15 - having used two systems upgraded from Fedora 14. I had a strange problem with a brand-new Dell Vostro 3550 laptop with clean a Fedora 15 x86-64 installation. I chose to download the boot image and install from the network. I selected packages for software development without customizing anything. The installation went on smoothly. Once I started using the system, I used yum to install several additional packages. Strangely the icons for these applications seem to be missing.Screenshot1 shows that both Thunderbird and Remmina (for remote desktop) icons shown generic icon.Screenshot2 shows the Default Applications tab in the System Info where Thunderbird does not have an icon.

I installed Startup Manager but the appearance and security tabs are missing. I really want to be able to change the resolution of the splash screen cause it looks all pixelated and I want to have the splash screen that 9.10 had.
I tried reinstalling and restarting but the issue remains. I know its somewhat functional because I am able to change the seconds that grub takes but when I try to change the resolution of the purple ubuntu startup screen it looks like it tries to change it but it fails.

Stupidly did the automatic upgrade to 11.04 last night. Didn't go TERRIBLY wrong, but on many applications I just get a blank white screen. Even on some that launch properly, if i minimize or switch between apps, I get that same blank screen. App is working (clicked around in Evolution and Title changed), but I can't see anything. Happens both in Unity and Classic.

I run Mythbuntu. Relevant to this thread, I have the following hardware: An Nforce4 onboard sound card A pcHDTV HD5500 ATSC/NTSC/ClearQAM tuner A Pinnacle PCTV HD card, also tunes ATSC/NTSC/ClearQAM Sound from the PC goes through an optical cable to a receiver for 5.1 digital / DTS audio. That's working smashingly. The digital portions of both the pcHDTV and Pinnacle cards play in realtime and record equally well. Huzzah! Additionally, the analog video capture works -- the /dev/vbi0 and vbi1 devices are there. It's the analog audio capture with which I'm having problems. With Ubuntu 10.04 and earlier the analog v4l devices were accompanied by /dev/dsp#. Now they're gone. Where'd they go?
As a side note, I know ALSA sees my video capture audio devices, as alsamixer lets me choose among the three cards -- one NVidia (set as default), and two Connexant CX8801 devices. Everything's unmuted, set to a high volume, and capture enabled. I look in /dev/snd and I see a bunch of bs I don't recognize, nor does it seem to have very intuitive naming. Just for giggles, in the Myth backend setup, I went ahead and manually set the non-existent /dev/dsp0 as the audio capture device for the pcHDTV card. Then I methodically did a ln -s /dev/snd/controlC0 /dev/dsp0, replacing controlC0 with each file in /dev/snd in turn and turning on live analog TV through the pcHDTV. No permutation worked. So then I did cat /proc/asound/devices, with the following results:
Code:
2: : timer
3: : sequencer
4: [ 0- 2]: digital audio capture
5: [ 0- 1]: digital audio playback
[code].....
I'm guessing that lines 11 and 13 refer to my pcHDTV and Pinnacle cards. With that in mind, in Myth backend setup I replaced the audio capture setting with ALSA:hw:1,0 and 2,0 respectively. Is there any way without having to go through recompiling the kernel to restore /dev/dsp functionality? If not, then how can I tell what devices are my analog audio capture devices so I can point Myth backend setup to the correct devices?

I recently upgraded from 10.04 to 11.04 in order to fix a weird problem I was having in which I was forced to reinstall NVidia drivers every single time I booted into Ubuntu. Fortunately, The problem went away after the upgrade, but it was replaced with a bigger problem called "Unity". After a few minutes of being unable to literally do anything in this Unity interface, I logged out and used the "Classic Ubuntu" which would be GNOME 2.32.1. This interface was missing many of my old GNOME Panel applets, and it was unable to be patched with the unofficial vertical task bar fix, making "Classic Ubuntu" nearly as ineffective as Unity.
I decided to go the route of Avant Window Navigator as my replacement vertical task bar. It works great! I have it working together with a crippled GNOME Panel with just enough functionality to be good enough for my heavy development work. There's only one problem... I can't find the GNOME Panel CPU Monitor applet! The one that comes with Avant does not show me cumulative CPU usage over time, which is what I need. This is what I had before the upgrade.

after the upgrade to maverick, gnome-session-save doesn't save applications on shutdown or logout as it did on Lucid.I've noticed the following things:
On Lucid, if I had a stopped job in a shell, the system refused to logout or shutdown, showing a confirmation window. On Maverick, the CPU goes to 100% and then the computer shuts down; on reboot, no application is saved
On Maverick, if there are NO stopped jobs in a shell, I can logout cleanly but only a few applications are saved (eg. terminal, firefox) but others aren't (eg. empathy,evolution) I've checked "Automatically remember application on exit" in "Session management" menu.

I downloaded the release version of 11.04 desktop 32bit today and ran into a problem with the upgrade. Not sure if I missed a step or not, but when I booted the CD to do an Install of 11.04 desktop 32bit over 10.10 desktop 32bit I expected to see the upgrade option similar to what is in this link (red arrow pointing to it):[URL]... On my install screen all the other options were there except the upgrade.
Since I was on a schedule for this particular computer I am doing the Update Manager Network upgrade instead but I have 3 other computers to do as well. Any ideas on what I might have missed? Should I have booted to Live version first instead of Install then look for an upgrade option somewhere? I read something that alluded to that on a website.

This evening I went through the upgrade process to 10.04. The entire process went well until reboot time. At that point fsck was run and stopped after checking the first physical hard drive. After some time I skipped (s). When I tried to log in, warning messages informed me that Nautilus could not access it's folders in our home folder. ls /home/ brings up nothing, nada zilch. Some poking around confirms that the drive is there but Ubuntu seems unaware of it.
The configuration:
Physical hd #1 is: sda a 40Gb hard drive with windows and Ubuntu / and swap.
Physical hd #2 is: sdb a 120Gb hard drive with our /home partitions.
Seems Ubuntu is simply not detecting the drive?

I use several keyboard layouts all the time. In all previous versions of Ubuntu I could see which one is current. After upgrade it is not showing anymore -- there is just an irrelevant picture. If I click on it -- I see current layout name -- but not other layouts. There I need to select "Keyboard Preferences" in order to see others. Because I often switch between layouts -- this simple feature is VERY important. Why it is broken in Ubuntu 10.10?

Last night I attempted to upgrade my Ubuntu 10.10 (amd64) machine. After reboot (it installed a new kernel), the grub menu only had the memtest. Booted into a livecd and it seems that I was missing most of the files in /etc/grub.d/. Reinstalled grub-common and grub-pc didn't seem to restore the files. I ended up having to download the dpkg, expand it and copy the files manually so I could get the box generate grub.conf and boot up. I think grub may have been broken before the upgrade but exhibited the problem when it upgraded the kernel and reran upgrade-grub but I can't seem to figure out why reinstalling grub doesn't add the files back.

I am using slackware-current 32bit version. After upgrading from kde 4.2.4 to 4.3.4 (using slackpkg), all my K-menu icons were missing.
There are also no icons in task managers for all kde-based applications like konsole,dolphin etc.. But for non-kde application like firefox, wicd and xmms, the icons show up in task manager. I have tried reinstalling kdebase, kdebase-runtime and kde-userspace with no luck.

I just did an upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 and now I can't boot into Windows 7 on this dual boot desktop. I usually do a clean install but with a laptop and desktop a copy of Windows 7 and Ubuntu on each machine it's getting very tiring with 4 os's so opted for the upgrade this time.
During the installation there was a window that game up about upgrading grub and what devices to install it on. The help box was not very complete and seemed to say to click all the check boxes which included the main drive and it's partitions including windows. During the install somewhere it said something like grub could not be installed on one of the devices which I think was sda6 which is probably the Windows 7 partition.
So how would I get the option of booting into Windows 7 on startup as now I only get a blank black screen when I click on the Windows 7 option upon bootup? I hope I don't have to reinstall one or both os's again from scratch as this is becoming to much work to do on two systems every 6 months, especially with the amount of programs I have installed.

I recently upgraded from fedora 10 to fedora 11, everything seemed to go fine until I started eclipse and noticed that the java perspective was now missing. It was there before the upgrade, but something seems to be broken now. However, I can't find any error files, so I have no clue as to what may be broken. I looked around online to see if anyone else had a similar issue, but could not find anything that seemed to help. One site suggested that it was caused by not having the eclipse-jdt package installed, so I double checked that but already had it installed.
$ rpm -qa | grep -i eclipse | sort
eclipse-jdt-3.4.2-9.fc11.x86_64
eclipse-platform-3.4.2-9.fc11.x86_64
[code].....
Another site said that something in my .eclipse directory might have been corrupted and suggested moving it and letting eclipse create a new one, but this all did not . I was unable to find any other information about what could be causing this or how to fix it.
