Ubuntu :: Contents Of Text Documents Displayed In Their Icons?
May 1, 2010
but not all, of my text documents show their contents as their icons, instead of using my theme's designated icons for text files. For example, in the above image, the bottom-right file contains: "hello ubuntu forums / this is my problem / how can we fix it? / thank you" and it's icon displays some of this message so that it may be read without opening the file As you can see, the problem occurs with some filetypes, like .txt and .html, but not with others, like .doc or .rtf. How can I force all text files to use my theme's designated icons?

I recently changed from Ubuntu 10.10 to Fedora 15, I haven't chosen to make them dual boot because I liked Gnome 3 that much. But I installed them on my second hard disk because then I can move my documents to this OS.But when I go to the Ubuntu files I get this message:The folder contents could not be displayed. You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents.mage:So now I can't access my documents anymore... Does somebody know how I can move them to Fedora?

I want to display the contents of a particular log file (simple text file, I mean in Linux). But there is a problem: The contents need to be organized in a fixed format. Have a look at this log file:
sampleLog.txt
Code:
User Name: XYZ
Reported Problems Description: Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah!
[code]....
So, while displaying the contents of above file on a web page, I want to format the field names found in the log file: User Name:, Reported Problems Description:, and Remarks:. These fields may contain a variable length of text and no specific line number is assumed for them to appear on.
The desired output should look like this:
User Name: XYZ
Reported Problems Description: Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah!
[code]....
Well, what I am trying to do may sound wierd to some of you. The filed "Reported Problems Description:" can possible contain text which embeds colon (.

There is a weird thing happening with my FC14 installation. When I log in, I have no icons displayed on the desktop, although I may (and I do) really have them there. One other thing: There is also no "right click" on the desktop.This is solved by opening a folder (which means launching nautilus?), but that's awful and I would like to solve it. ;-)Some information on the system:
Code:
[skorzen@g62 ~]$ uname -r
2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64

I recently installed Apache on Lucid Lynx (Macbook 1.1) using the following tutorial: [URL] Everything appears to work correct except that when I browse http://localhost/ in Firefox, I cannot see any of the directories. Although, files such as html documents are visible. When I view the /var/www directory using the default graphical file browser, all of its child directories have Xs over their icons. When I attempt to open the directory "js", the following error message displays:The folder contents could not be displayed.
You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "js".
I figured this was preventing Firefox from viewing the directories. So I launched it with the "gksu" command to see if it would help. I still couldn't see directories when browsing http://localhost/ I'm basically trying to achieve functionality identical to the MAMP local server for Mac OS X. I'm about to start a LAMP project for a new client so having this up and running is important!

I have CentOS 5 32 bit and I wish to be able to use Python as it is required by a web script I am installing.The Apache however handles the test Python scripts as text. I have Apache/2.2.3 installed and I followed this tutorial: [URL]installed mod_python, edited the httpd.conf file, restarted the Apache, it restarted ok - no change at all. I tried other suggestions I googled but in vain.

how RAR archives work. Suppose I have a .rar archive of text documents (for the sake of argument, containing personal information). I am able to run 'shred *.rar' in that directory from the terminal. What happens here? My assumption is that the contents of the .rar file (pointers to the text documents on the disk?) are 'shredded' (overwritten n times), but the text documents themselves are still on the disk intact.

I am an astronomy student using Ubunut 10.04, and a frequent user of IRAF ( an *nix image processing application geared toward astronomy). IRAF produces, amongst other things, a text document with various values on it (example below).
Code: K IRAF = NOAO/IRAFV2.14.1 version %-23s
#K USER = name %-23s
#K HOST = Balthazar computer %-23s
#K DATE = 2010-04-29 yyyy-mm-dd %-23s

Now, the information I'm actually interested is the X and Y coordinates down towards the bottom (in this case, 973.505, 271.474).
I have about 800 of these output text files, and I was wondering if there's any sort of script or command that could go through them (presumably reading from a list of file names), and extract the coordinates. Ideally, the output would be a list of coordinates (i.e. X-coordinate, Y-coordinate).

I also am having problems with 11.04 and the Unity desktop. In particular when I ask Evolution to Back Up its settings, I get the error message "The folder contents could not be displayed" "Operation not supported". I've used this operation many times on earlier versions of Ubuntu. I've tried removing and re-loading Evolution, but no difference.

How can read the file /var/etc/allInOne.cfg and distribute its contents on multiple cfg files using C language. /var/etc/allInOne.cfg contain the data and the path of each text file.
The source file "/var/etc/allInOne.cfg "look like this:
line1
line2
...
line10
filePath:/var/etc/file1.cfg
line12
line13
...
line14
filePath:/var/etc/file2.cfg
linen
..
filePath:/var/etc/filen.cfg
the result will be :
The expected result is:
/var/etc/file1.cfg will contain line1 to line10
/var/etc/file2.cfg will contain line 12 to line13
/var/etc/filen.cfg will contain linen to linen-1

Installed 10.10 a couple weeks ago on my machine, and for the life of me, I can't find out where/how to remove the text from the toolbar icons in Nautilus.
There used to be an option under "Change Desktop Background", but it's no longer there. I checked gconf-editor and can't find an entry under metacity.
Any idea how to remove the text next to the toolbar icons in Gnome (nautilus) in Ubuntu 10.10?

This is really annoying. In every X application (except xemacs) the text is written on a turquoise background. I can't find any information about making the text appear on the same colour as the background -- eg. if the text is a menu on the window, it should be on a grey background. If on a white screen then white. It is turquoise everywhere!

I was recording a DVD when I wanted to look at a folder to see if there was a file there. I went to "places", as I always do, and a window poped up asking for a password. This has never happened before. I entered the password and went to the folder. I always view folders as "list", then they displayed as "icons". I finished the recording and re-started. It still appears the same, and when I open programs I notice little differences in the way things look and feel. The reason I was recording DVD's was to get some of the movies off my hard drive. It was down to 81Gbs free, It now says there is 365 Gbs free. I have searched everything and I see nothing missing.

I can access my windows my documentsmusic by mounting my windows drive and browsing to it. I can then playwatch my movies and pics in Ubuntu.But what I really want to be able to do is re-map the Ubunbu docs folder like so:
Ubuntu Pics = Windows My Documents pics.
Ubuntu Videos = Windows My Documents Videos.
I'm not very unix savy so I've been using Ubuntu tweak PersonalDefault Folder Locations setting and browsing to my Windows folders. But it doesn't work.I have managed to make a desktop 'short cut' and that works but I'd rather set the system wide default document folders.
