View 2 RepliesI just installed 10.10 on a desktop machine, dual boot with Win XP. Everything went well, it connected and did all the system updates etc. Then one time I rebooted and it wouldn't connect. I've tried rebooting again several times, tried unplugging the modem/router from the power and from the computer then reconnecting everything and starting it up again, no joy. I booted from the Live CD and it connects without any problem, likewise from Win XP. My Network Connections shows 'Auto eth0' and below is the ifconfig output.
Code:
jim@ubuntu:~$ ifconfig -a

the best way I can describe what happened to my desktop is that at a sudden point I could no longer switch between my windows, and when I shut my computer down and rebooted, nearly all of the applets at the top of my screen -- including the clock, Me applet, messaging center, and shut down helper -- were gone. How do I get them back?
View 5 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to add panel applets in the netbook desktop environment? (I don't know what this DE is called.)
I know how to do it if I log in with the usual Gnome DE, but applets added there don't seem to show up when I log in with the netbook DE.
Is there a configuration file somewhere that can be manually edited to do this?

Nothing comes up saying a missing plug-in needs to be installed, but a small, blank window appears with a title of "Java" which can't be closed and has to be killed.
I am using Ubuntu 8.10. All the java programs run perfectly fine in Geany. But when I try to run java applets in web browsers it did not run. I have tried running it in Opera and FireFox. I have written a simple program which display "hello world" in browsers. When I refresh the page it displays the text for about 2 or 3 seconds and after that it disappears.
Are there any other ways to run java applets?
I'm having an unexpected problem with my Gnome Panel in Ubuntu Lucid. The thing is that after I logged in, my Language Indicator Applet and the Network Connections Indicator Applet were missing in my PANEL.I've tried the typical installation method by pressing "Add to panel", but I cannot find any of these options in the list of applets.

View 3 Replies View Relatedso I'm using Xubuntu 10.04.2, and I would like to add the network manager to the GDM Panel.
I know it must be possible somehow, since the Gnome version lacks the battery monitor, and the Xfce version has it present. I'm just not quite sure how to get it done.
I do not have Gnome installed, I have only XFCE, LXDE, and Openbox.
I am a big fan of avant window navigator, but I'm having trouble getting it set up all the way in natty.avant-window-navigator is in the natty repos, but there are a couple of shortcomings in the applets. - the digital clock applet is not included - the weather applet has an annoying bug (constantly announcing that there may be connectivity issues) that was fixed a long time ago. That's fine, I'll just I just install from the PPA I thought. The problem is that the applets package (awn-extras) is not in their natty repo. Does anyone know how to get awn with the most recent applets in natty?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying *really* hard to like Unity. Already I'm disappointed that I can't move it to the right edge of the screen. My peripheral vision is stronger on the left, so the Launcher is distracting there. I know that people will say that it'll pop out when I try to use scroll bars. I have auto-hide disabled, so no it won't. Now I'm trying to figure out how (or if) I can get some sort of pop-out functionality. Since Canonical wants to shove a more OSX-ish experience down my throat, I'd like to be able put a folder into the Launcher, and have it pop-out the contents of the folder, with an option to open that folder in Nautilus. Can this be done?

Info about my processor if you need:AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000+ 2,61 GHz.This is my first time ever using ubuntu.
I was messing around with my monitor settings in Ubuntu 10.04 [The first time when everything worked right away with my system!], and I stupidly deleted all the applets in the upper panel, and now I can't find them anymore. I looked though the applet selection screen, and I couldn't find the sound applet, the all-in-one power off/log out/switch user applet, or the email/chat applet. How do I get these applets back on my top panel?

View 3 Replies View RelatedA friend of mine is running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
Applets (indicator applet, main menu, etc.) on his top GNOME panel frequently fail to appear when he logs in, and have to be added manually.
What we've tried:
1) Right-click each applet and check "Lock to Panel".
2) In gconf-editor, set "/apps/panel/global/locked_down" to true.
Neither makes the applets stay put.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS as well, and have no such problem.
The clock applet and indicator applet in Gnome garble up from time to time. I have 2 Ubuntu installations at home and several others at work, some 32-bit and some 64-bit, all exhibiting the same issue occasionally. I think it's a bug in the Gnome panel. In the attached screenshot you can see an example of how the time in the clock applet is garbled up.
It's not always the clock that is affected, some other times it's the login name, the weather, or the shutdown button... Worst case, the shutdown button becomes totally invisible preventing me to log off (workaround: use the three-fingered salute).

View 8 Replies View RelatedAll day today, my laptop has been absurdly hot.The core temperatures were exceeding 70.0C even though it was on a cooling pad and I had disabled wireless, lowered the screen brightness, and put the CPU on Powersave. (For comparison, the temp usually stays at 45.0C if I do all this)
Finally, I decided to check htop, and I found IcedTea Plugin at the top with 99% CPU usage. This is used to run embedded Java applets (Java, not Javascript). Curiously, no Java applets were running at that time.Now skip ahead an hour to when I finally discover that the IcedTea Plugin was left over from earlier because it didn't stop running when it was supposed to. Looking online, I see several complaints about Java being very taxing on the CPU in Ubuntu, but I don't see anything about Java applets continuing to run after they're gone.
Can anyone who has Java installed confirm that this happens on their system?
1. Open htop. Search for "icedtea" to make sure it isn't already running. Then click on "CPU%" to sort the list.
2. Open this page in Firefox: www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
3. Check htop. Is IcedTea climbing to the top? (if you have Java, it likely will, because this is a common issue)
4. Navigate off of the Java.com page by closing the tab or clicking Back.
5. Here's what I want to know. Check htop again. Is IcedTea still there?
6. Restart Firefox to get rid of IcedTea.
Do Gnome applets like nm-applet work in KDE/Xfce/LXDE?
Or maybe Fluxbox/openbox?
Just upgraded a dual monitor install of ubuntu from 10.10 to 11.04, reverted to ubuntu-classic (gnome desktop), changed to metacity window manager, but the panel applets (clock, window liet, notifications etc..) only run on ONE of the two screens (:0.0 and :0.1), the other screen they always crash when I try to add them to the panel. how do i get applets to run on BOTH screens at the same time like they used to.
