I have a script running from a hotkey,it tries to do this:
Code:
DISPLAY=:0.0; notify-send "hi there"
this worked okay in Lucid (Ubuntu 10.04), but doesn't work in Maverick 10.10 I have also tried:
Code:
DISPLAY=:0 notify-send "hi there"
to no avail.
I use Ubuntu 9.10 for one of my MythTV frontends, which have a plasma screen connected using VGA as display :0.0 and a projector connected using HDMI as display :0.1.How do I send notifications using notify-send to the projector? The following doesn't work, i.e. it still displays on the plasma screen:Code:DISPLAY=:0.1 ; notify-send "This will still display on :0.0"

I've been using Ubuntu 11.04 for a couple of weeks now, and I can't seem to get notify-send to work correctly (yes, I did install libnotify-bin)
Yesterday, I reinstalled Ubuntu 11.04 and the first thing I did was install libnotify-bin to try notify-send on a fresh install.
It worked fine after the reinstallation until I did sudo apt-get upgrade. Immediately after the updates finished, I tried notify-send again and it failed to display a notification.
No error messages, command exits correctly, no indication of anything going wrong except no notification pops up.
I'm on a lenovo thinkpad t420, 64bit ubuntu.
I write a cgi script in python just send a notification command,but that can not work for me.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
#-*-coding=utf-8-*-
import cgi
[code]....
I've been having some trouble with the notifications on 10.04.Networking and volume popups are visible, but messages from Banshee or empathy aren't showing.
I tried the command notify-send in the terminal, but it showed nothing, unless when doing it as root.
fix or a setting to tweak in order to get full notifications back?
Let's say there are machines A and B. user1 is on machine A, and has access to machine B through ssh (also as user1). user2 is sitting at machine B (let's say in Gnome session). And user1 has sudo access on machine B. How can user1 send a message to user2 (so it should appear on user2's desktop) with notify-send? code...
This doesn't work. I get in result:
(notify-send:28676): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
What else should be done to make it work? (trying it on current Debian testing).
Pidgin was running beautifully with notify-osd until recently i've decided to try AWN-notification-daemon ... didn't like it, so simply disabled it .. now notify-osd is not working at all with pidgin... it works with other applications , but not pidgin..
the pidgin-libnotify plugin is checked and working.. I've reinstalled notify-osd and notify-osd icons package .. but still.

So I activated the Firefox profile:
Code:
And restarted Firefox (even rebooted), but it doesn't seem to be working. When I open Firefox I am able to perform a "Save Page As" in locations I shouldn't be able to, like my Desktop or Pictures folder.
The following command says the Firefox process is in enforce mode:

Of the following lines, the only directory which is "rw" is /Downloads, why am I still able to write to other places?
Code:

Can someone with an active Firefox profile do this simple test for me? Click File -> Save As and try to save somewhere the Apparmor profile shouldn't let you, and let me know the results.
I have an issue with Skype video similar to this thread [URL] where the test video doesn't work and I only see a white screen from my own webcam. The receivers can see my video and I can see their video, however. Video from my webcam works fine in Cheese and Guvcview. It seemed to start after I loaded the Compiz-config-settings-manager in an effort to fix video tearing (didn't work). Also Kdenlive now crashes every time I try to run a clip, but it was working great before. Even if I remove CompizConfig I still have the problem.

I was trying to make a skype call to someone. However, I can hear them, but they can't hear me. I did a skype sound test. And discovered it was my mic not working. However, I can't see any configuration to see if my mic is muted or not.
Set up a server with Bind, Dovecote, Apache etc. Registered a domain and made all the necessary things for it to work. The server can send/receive mail on my domain, but when I try to look up the site I have it returns a lookup failure. I know Apache is working as I can browse the site when I used my ip address but I can't when I use the domain name. Anyone got a few tricks I could try to dumb down and find the possible failures I did when setting this up?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'd like to ask you if there is a way to test if RAM modules are working/stable. I don't mean memtest86+ test, my previous motherboard crashed after inserting another module (problem could not be specified/or/and was in RAM, so I got new ones from seller). So now I'd like to ask you, if there is some way to determine if RAMs are working and stable. I don't know any other way than applying them to them motherboard and testing, but now it really is not what I want to do. Maybe there could be some device which can test them, or something.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've a issue on Skype 2.1 beta, my Ubuntu version is Karmic Koala. Well, my camera works perfectly in guvcview and in skype test (I already modified config.xml in my user dir to have 640x480, my cam is Ricoh r5870). OK, as soon as I start my video or I get itautomatically started it goes 320x240 and very bad. I turn it off during the call and I restart it: it works perfectly. Could I solve this issue by telling skype to open the video "just like if it were the second time" ?

Basically, it is a Bluetooth scanner that is designed to do just one thing, scan for discoverable devices in range and record their MAC, name, and the time/date they were found to a log file. There are only a few options, it is pretty much a set it and forget it sort of thing. The only requirements are BlueZ (3.x or 4.x), and that your computer has a Bluetooth device that is supported by Linux.
Obviously you will also need at least one device to scan for, and the more the better. If you want to take a walk through your mall while running it and seeing what you found, I would be ecstatic. A word of warning, I am not a very good C programmer and I have no doubt that there are mistakes in the code and improvements that could be made. You can download the source and get a little more specific information about it from: [URL].
Dell Mini 9 Netbook with Windows XP OS died. It has a 16GB SSD. I was in the middle of installing HP printer software when it shutdown unexpectedly. Then upon turning it back on it says something about a media test failure, check cable and then Operating System Not Found. I've been able to boot using Damn Small Linux using an external cd drive.
When I type 'fdisk -l' I get:
Disk /dev/hda: 15.4 GB, 15408046080 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1873 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk /dev/hda doesn't contain a valid partition table
My wife has lots of pictures on the drive that she would like so I took it to a couple data recovery places and they were charging anywhere from $1000 just for jpegs up to $2600 for all files retrieved. That's more than I can budget for this. So my wife accepted the fact that the pictures are gone, but I figured I might as well try what I can because we have nothing more to lose.
I thought I'd try to get a hard drive cubby and attach it through USB to a working PC, but apparently Dell's SSDs are proprietary and the design is not accommodated. I thought maybe just the partition table information got erased somehow, so I tried using gparted and it found nothing. Whenever I use cfdisk and create partitions, I quit cfdisk after writing and it still says there is no valid partition table. I have no other ideas as to what I can do.
I was windering, if you are writing a C program, I don't think you are supposed to commit the .o files and executables. How can you test your program without making a copy outside the git working dir?
