View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Task Bar Preview - Show All Songs With Word Black In Title
Jan 23, 2011I have a customer that was raving how he likes windows 7. I asked him what he saw improved over xp, and he could only list the mouse hover preview of tasks in taskbar and media player could show all songs with word black in title. I am training my 3 and 5 year old on Ubuntu, and they (& wife) cannot grasp the difference between bottom taskbar and top applications menu. Even on my xp machine they freak out (including 10 year old with computer classes) when I minimize their applications to work on my own when they get up from the dining room machine.
And, so I though I would download "Visual tray tip" which mimics the taskbar preview on mouse hover. But on my 6 gig hard drive, p3 650 mhz 1 gig ram living room notebook (mainly flash educational gaming for kids) I really would like such a task bar preview. But upgrading Ubuntu is out of the question, since it is a functioning machine with 211 megs free on drive, and I have no stomach, time, or wish to kill it by an upgrade. So, am wishing for a sudo apt-get install solution.
Ubuntu Installation :: Task Manager Or Task Bar, Keeps Changing Length?
May 29, 2011After upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 all of a sudden, the task manager or task bar, keeps changing length. The individual window "buttons" themselves keep changing size - flashing even, and the space between them also changes. It is driving me nuts! The little system tray(?) icons no longer appear in the system tray, but all stacked on top of each other in the top left corner.

May 19, 2011I have my task list in evolution (mainly so it can sync with my phone and online task list) but I always forget to look at the task list. Is there an application or plugin which periodically displays the contents of the tasklist or even better, it briefly displays the most urgent/important tasks when I login? Or anything else which automatically displays the most important tasks. Currently I have to open the task list and look at them (which I usually forget). I do not mean some kind of alarm when the task is due but more a daily reminder of what to do.

Mar 29, 2011Here at work we've made very good use of Server 2003's Shadow Copy service, which lets me restore users' files quickly and easily using the Previous Versions software--yet takes minimal resources and storage space on the server. I've also heard that the service may be available to users in Windows 7. Is there an equivalent of this in Ubuntu? Something I could set up that would snapshot files on my hard drive every so often, and let me recover deleted files or earlier versions of files?

Jul 12, 2011I'm using this metacity theme along with the included (and AMAZING) emerald theme for the window borders. Just wondering if there's any way I can keep the window borders as they are, but put shadows on for the gnome-panel and my stickynotes? See HERE.When I try to adjust the shadow settings in emerald, it changes everything -- including the window borders, which make the theme look horrible.I know I can specify certain types and classes of windows when using compiz as default window decorator with ccsm, but is there any way to do something like this with emerald?

Jun 16, 2009I am moving my Linux server from Suse 10 to Ubuntu 9.04 and I moved the significant parts of /etc/shadow, /etc/passwd, and /etc/group over to Ubuntu 9.04. I am not able to login into the computer with the old accounts. The only problem I see is that the old accounts use Blowfish and DES to encrypt the passwords in /etc/shadow, and Ubuntu uses SHA512. If I change the passwords, the accounts will work. However; I have about 300 accounts to move, and I don't want to do that to all of them. I have tired Ubuntu Forums and talked to every linux expert I know, and no one has an answer.

Jan 31, 2011I upgraded to F14 from F13, and when the process was complete, I noticed on my desktop, I have a strange drop shadow on the left-hand corner. As if it's shadowing an invisible window. You cannot interact with it, it's not "really" there.It is very annoying, and I can not figure out what it is, or what is causing it. I've checked all my plasma widgets and things like that, but it still persists.
Anyone run into this before or have any ideas?Here is a screenshot showing the shadow, I intentionally set my background to white, so you could see it best. But it shows up on top of any wallpaper. and you can clearly see it underneath translucent term windows/etc.

View 4 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Shadow File Password Policy?
Oct 1, 2010Today i was going through some of security guides written on linux .Under shadow file security following points were mentioned.1)The encrypted password stored under /etc/shadow file should have more than 14-25 characters.2)Usernames in shadow file must satisfy to all the same rules as usernames in /etc/passwd.3)password for application Username should display * if username is not locked.4)If a user is locked it should be displayed as ! as the first character in second field of shadow file.
Confusion for point 1 and 2:Now i m confused as why the encrypted password should be more than 14-25 characters.Also what rules to satisfy How to check it?Confusion for point 3 and 4:There are lot of users with * as second field i guess they are not locked but according to 4th point there are lot of users with ! as first characters.How would i check whether they are actually locked or not.I m posting the output of /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd files for the account.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSecurity :: Shadow Password Hashes - If My $id$ Was $5$, Which Is Sha256?
Apr 26, 2011The /etc/shadow file contains an id of $1$, $2$, $5$ or $6$ to show the encryption method used.A salt follows this,followed by the password hash.When a user is created and a password is set, a hash is RANDOMLY generated and used as the salt to the password hash. Everytime that user logs in, login checks /etc/shadow for the $id$ and salt and runs the password given by the user through the hash mechanism ($id$) using the salt in /etc/shadow.So basically does login look at /etc/shadow for the $id$ and salt to create a hash with which to compare to the /etc/shadow hash?question 2 - If my $id$ was $5$, which is sha256, how would i go about changing this? Like is there a shadow.conf or crypt.conf or something? Can i change it per user?

View 1 Replies View RelatedProgramming :: Bird Eye View Game Shadow
Mar 25, 2011I've been working on this console-based game (in c) in which the player walks around touches floating orbs which do things etc. And I want to make it so that an object on the map blocks the sight of the player, which is something I haven't tried until now. This is the part of the code which handles this sort of thing :
void uncover(int shadow)
{
int wp,
hp,
xp,
yp,
pp, // point placement
mp, // maximum pp value // (that's what she said)
lp; // light placement .....
This <works> but isn't very nice. What I would like to do is to change the third to last if statement, which is really more of a geometry problem, which could be frased as :
given points (x,y) , (plist[pp].x,plist[pp].y) and (wp,hp) create a conditional which tests weather or not point (wp,hp) is within the shadow cast by light-source (x,y) being blocked by an object at (plist[pp].x,plist[pp].y), [with some width, ~1]
but there isn't a geometry forum, and it's somewhat more related to programming.

FYI. Normal unix-kde sessions work fine (e.g. Giant on Box) and shadow sessions of an existing unix-kde session works fine too. A shadow session of the local display is a bust.
