I can't seem to find anywhere that allows me to change the direction in which text is displayed/entered. I'm trying to change from "left to right, top to bottom" to "top to bottom, left to right".

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a theme that looks like this.
Unfortunately, it makes the globalmenu and clock applets disappear on my gnome-panel. My panel is set to system theme, though when I choose a solid color I can get the hidden text to show up. I want to preserve the system color so I need to change the text color somehow. Also, I don't know why it uses that bluish color when clicked on since I never defined such a color in the appearance settings.
How can I go about making an echo with specific text in colour in bash?. this is the result I want: Code: I like Red!

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am running Debian Jessie with Gnome 3.14.2 on a Macbook Pro 15" with retina display. My resolution is currently set to 2880:1800 and any time I try to lower it, the whole screen goes to black (even if I change it to something in the 16:10 ratio) and I just have to keep force restarting when doing that. I want to lower it because a lot of stuff is really small. Certain aspects of windows in programs are so small, and in order to properly view stuff on my web browser I have to increase the magnification to around 250% for it to be reasonable.
Some things seem normally sized in the windows, and thus make things awkward on the screen, especially in chrome. Is there a way to fix this without having to change my resolution and/or font sizes? Making font sizes bigger on the gnome tweak tool makes things look a bit more awkward because it squeezes the text into small spaces. I would rather keep a higher resolution for a better picture, and changing it seems to mess things up. Here is what my browser looks like (without magnifying). Notice how the font size in the bookmark bar is disproportionately large compared to the buttons in the top right to close/max/min the window.
And this problem isn't just in the browser, but for example, in matlab everything is extremely tiny. I want to make everything larger, not just the text...
I would like to set the default text editor in Xfce to gedit. The only solution that I found on Google was to right click on a given text file, select 'open with other application', sleect gedit, and make sure that the "use as default kind" button is checked. Unfortunately this only works for text files with the same extension as the original file. Is there a way of setting every text file to open with gedit by default that doesn't involve repeating this exercise for every possible text file extension (.c, .py, .h, .hs, etc.)?

I have an old Logitech Wingman analog joystick connected to a game port on a Creative sound card. At this point I've got the system to see the joystck and was able to run jscal. I was also able to run jstest. I was able to see positive & negative numbers moving the joystick in four directions. However, when I try 2 different MAME games or Open Arena there is no right direction. Pushing the joystick right only stops it from going left.. Up and down movement seems to be OK.

I'm currently setting up a squid proxy which will be installed on a debian system configured as a bridge eth0/eth1 as br0. The problem I'm having is that port 80 requests are being proxied both ways where I only want the requests coming in via eth1 to be proxied.
Is there a way to do this? I've already tried changing the "-i br0" in the iptables redirection to "-i eth1" but no data appears to go through it.
I tried to set up NFSv4 with idmapd between two Debian/lenny installations. On the client, the user "xyz" has the UID 501 and on the server "1000". Changing UIDs and setting up NIS is not possible, Kerberos unwanted. I tried to set up NFSv4 with idmapd and it is only working from server to clienthen I list directories on the server, belonging to the user "xyz/1000", the owner is correctly displayed on the client as user "xyz/501". But when I create a file on the server, it is created with UID 501 (should be 1000). The configuration is quite standard, idmapd.conf was generated automatically, NEED_IDMAPD is set to "yes" and starting properly.

I've been using Ubuntu for about 6 months now, but haven't had a need to start scripting until just recently. I know programming basics, but that's about it.Anyway, I have a program that I would normally run in this manner (note that I didn't create a permanent alias because I've been moving the program around a lot):alias dx='python /path/to/dxProgram.py' dx A_input.dx B_input.dxSo, you see, program dx takes two input files, and 'A' must come before 'B'. I have a folder full of these types of files that I'd like to loop through with this program. They're named as follows:
0_A_input.dx
0_B_input.dx
1_A_input.dx

runlevels 2 -5 are identical in Ubuntu. /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf is used instead of /etc/inittab for changing the runlevel. But there's no point doing that since the runlevels are identical. The default runlevel is 2, so I tried to find some service I could disable in /etc/rc2.d. I didn't find anything I could work with.
