Ubuntu :: OpenMotif : Create Network Location Link As Local Filesystem Location?
Apr 26, 2011I'm working with a program that uses Open Motif to create all of the widgets, including the Open File dialog box (obviously). However, Open Motif being kinda old-timey, 80's vintage, and for the most part now an abandoned project, it is quite clunky. So, actually what I need to do is to open some files located on my work server. I have already successfully connected to the relevant server directories with Samba, and with programs built with GTK+ (such as GIMP) I can open files across the network because I have created a bookmark in Nautilus, and those bookmarks appear in the Open File dialog box created by GTK+. Now, Open Motif is different: it doesn't see network locations, orNautilus shortcuts. When I type "smb://serveripyadayada" in the search folder, it really doesn't like it and complains. So, what do I do? Can I get somehow Open Motif to open a network location? Or can I do a run-around and place a shortcut in the file system that points to the network location?

Ubuntu Installation :: Install Applications On Different Location
Nov 8, 2010Is there any way that i can install applications on any location (directory /partition) ? If we keep the installation file on other drive and just keep the link of that file/folder on root directory (/usr /bin /usr/sahre) then we can save our space of root directory. I found several times that my root partition is full after installing some applications. It is so painful to shrink or reallocation of root partition. Maybe this procedure of software installation will be helpful for the people who are already created low spaced root partition.

OpenSUSE Install :: Changing Bootloader Location ?
Aug 6, 2011Because I had Windows installed first, the bootloader was located in that drives master boot record and the openSUSE drive was slaved to it. Now that Windows is gone and the Linux drive is bigger and faster (although the same Ide (pata) ata rating. There are no sata devices in my system.) I want to reverse the master slave relationship between those two drives and put the bootloader on the openSUSE drive.
At the moment a single instance of openSUSE 11.4 is the only operating system installed on the computer I'm talking about.
What procedure should follow to accomplish that?

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Location Of X Display
Apr 20, 2010On Ubuntu (as with 99% of other Linux distros), CTRL-ALT-F7 brings you to your X display on tty7 (:0)...is there any way for me to get the display to appear on tty2 or tty3 instead of 7?
I ask because my ubuntu box is a media server running XBMC. XBMC has some 'flaws'...one of which is screen refreshing during certain tasks (other than watching a video)...the easiest way to get it to kick back into gear is to switch to a terminal, then back to the X display...not that big of a deal really..but the problem lies in the fact that the remote I use for the computer (simple USB IR Remote grabbed off of eBay) has buttons programmed for CTRL-ALT-F[1,2,3,4]. So, if I could get X to appear in CTRL-ALT-F2 for instance, I could easily switch back and forth without having to get up to walk to the keyboard.

I open the Places menu, select network, choose the machine and get a set of shared folders. But when I try to open this one I get an error message "Unable to mount location. Failed to mount Windows Share". All the machines are running Ubuntu 9.04 or better. No problem with any other shared folder, and the permissions are the same for all.
I worked around it by creating another folder, copying everything across, and sharing it with the usual perfect result.
