Ubuntu :: Hide The Docky Application Icon On Docky?
Jun 28, 2011I certainly do not want to install Elementary OS, and just want a similar interface. I already installed docky, but Unity gets in the way. Is there a way I can disable that? Also, can I hide the docky application icon on Docky? Or is there a better way to do this?

May 23, 2010I decided to install Ubuntu 10.04 under Windows 7, but once I got it installed, I switched back over to Windows 7 real quick to find my display stretched. I tried to change it, but Ubuntu had made the current display the highest setting, so it was stretched until I removed Ubuntu. I wish to reinstall it but do not want to deal with that again. What happened?

Jun 25, 2010I am new to Linux and I am having a huge problem after install nfs-kernel-server. I run "apt-get install nfs-kernel-server". It runs and says it installs without errors, at least what I saw. Also the syslog was clean of errors related. Where the problem happens is when I try to start the NFS server and also on boot. When I start the service manually, it says starting portmap and ...something else. Then it gets to the point of saying it is starting the NFS server and crashes and I have no prompt. On some cases I can break out of it with (ctrl+c).
The problem that happens on boot...and this is only happens after nfs-kernel-server is installed. I reboot and I have no prompt. The only thing on the screen is a message complaining about something related to fsck, the odd thing is when I look to see if fsck has made any log outputs about fsck. When I cat the fsck log it says the log has no entries. The worst part is I have no way to log in from the console the machine gives me no prompt. I know it is something related to NFS because I have reinstalled the machine and it work perfect until I install NFS.
Ubuntu :: Messes Up Default Network Manager?

2.the list of utilities installed when xubuntu-desktop is installed
Ubuntu Multimedia :: ATI Drivers Messes Up Install?
Jul 25, 2010I come today with a nasty problem. My computer has a Intergrated ATI Radeon HD 3200 IGP. Now despite being a IGP its more or less its own GPU. Thing is I can't get the full power if I don't use the drivers (I do some thigns that need acceleration)
I recently came back to Ubuntu cause my Windows 7 DVD wont work anymore so I have to play with ubuntu again. Currently Im running 9.10 32bit (because 10.04 LTS doesn't want to work for me even after burning a clean CD-RW (one that has never been used or blanked))
Every time I try to install the driver for my card from the resricted drivers menu, when I reboot it causes ubuntu to screw up and wont go into X and stays in terminal. Its been awhile since I tried it but after just fixing my computer I don't feel like taking the risk.
Ubuntu :: 10.04 - Restarting Windows Messes Up Grub
Nov 12, 2010I dual boot my ubuntu 10.04 with my windows 7, I had 4 partitions on my machine, 2 ntfs and 2 ext4 partitions. But I noticed I still had an unallocated 10gb on my hdd, I couldn't see this unallocated space from ubuntu, fdisk, gparted etc. So I used diskmgmt in windows to create the 10gb ntfs partition, when I restarted I couldn't boot into either windows or ubuntu. I used my livecd to reinstall grub and everything was fine until I booted into windows 7 and restarted. Again my grub has been messed up.

Dec 4, 2009If I perform the following steps:
1. Start up a new Amazon instance running CentOS 5.2
2. Log in via ssh using a private key
3. Execute "yum -y groupinstall "X Window System"
4. Reboot
I am no longer able to log in:
janine$ ssh -i ~/.ec2/key.pem root@ec2-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com
ssh: connect to host ec2-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com port 22: Operation timed out
I see that the X install updates several openssh packages, but I have checked /etc/ssh/sshd_config before and after the install and it's not being changed. Besides, this is acting more like a firewall issue, but why would installing X have anything to do with that? And it's kind of tough to check and see if iptables has been started up after the reboot since I can't log in. I can't find any docs saying that I need to do any configuring after installing X; it seems like it's supposed to Just Work.
OpenSUSE :: Screensaver Messes Up After Running VLC Or Fldigi
Jun 10, 2010I'm running 11.2. My screen saver has been working fine since the begining in December, but now when I run VLC or fldigi my screen saver will kick on for only a few minutes then it will pop back to the log in screen as if I had moved my mouse or hit a key on the keyboard.
VLC about shows : gcc version 4.4.1 [gcc-4_4-branch revision 150839]
fldigi is latest version
I get a lot of these in var/log/messages:
unix2_chkpwd: gkr-pam: couldn't unlock 'login' keyring: 1
unix2_chkpwd: pam_env(gnome-screensaver:setcred): non-alphanumeric key 'alias sox=padsp sox' in /etc/environment', ignoring
unix2_chkpwd: pam_env(gnome-screensaver:setcred): non-alphanumeric key 'alias aumix=padsp aumix' in /etc/environment', ignoring
unix2_chkpwd: pam_env(gnome-screensaver:setcred): non-alphanumeric key 'alias timidity=timidity -Oe' in /etc/environment', ignoring
If I reboot, it works corectly until I run one of those two. Not sure about any other audio type of program. Bad updates, virus, or something else?
Ubuntu Installation :: Wubi Install Messes Up Windows Network Connection
May 17, 2010I just installed 10.04 64 bit to a windows 7 64 bit. After the install wubi works fine (except it hangs for like 1 minute saying Try hd(0,0) NTFS5: no wubildr), but windows 7 cant connect to the internet anymore. if i run ipconfig, it lests my ethernet adapter, but says that no network connection avaiable, the troubleshooter advises to plug in my ethernet cable. (it is plugged in, the net from ubuntu works fine.) Heres the output from lspci, dunno if helps:

Debian :: Noob Messes Up On Apt-get Now Lots Of Segmentation Faults?
Feb 12, 2010I have been running happily on Knoppmyth R5F27 (on Debian GNU 4.0/Etch) for a good long time. Everything has been operating well. My kids get to record their Mythbusters. Life is good. Tonight, though, I tried to make things better. And that was the mistake.
I read that we could use our PS3 to watch videos on Hulu. But, I needed a kind of proxy server or something to mask that I was using the PS3 browser. So, I thought I would install squid on the myth box.
I first tried apt-get install squid But, that didn't quite work. So, at a friend's suggestion, I ran: apt-get update Which had problems, too. Still, being a noob, I reran the apt-get install squid and a bunch of stuff came down. It has problems, too.
So, I turned back to apt-get update and realized there was a problem in sources.list. I updated it to have a more current repository and received the update. Then I realized that the apt-get for squid was pulling down resources for lenny. I struggled trying to kill the install for Squid. Failed. And then rebooted just to see if I have problems.
And I do. Mythbackend won't start. The command to do so produces a segmentation fault. Ditto for mythfrontend and mythtv-setup. I don't know what to do. Can someone help me roll this back to a stable setup of Etch? If you want to see my (very messy) attempt to install squid and update the system you can look at[URL]..
Fedora Installation :: FC11 Update Messes Up Bootloader
Oct 23, 2009I have my FC11 system set up to automatically download and install updates. I had to reboot yesterday because of one of these updates. It seems that this update messed up grub. When I rebooted I only got the flickering cursor. So far I have tried the following using the rescue disk and executing chroot /mnt/sysimage
fdisk -l gives me this result :
I have /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc
Boot flag is with /dev/sda1 which also has FIlesystem Linux, where the other I notice have filesystem Linux LVM (don't know if that is relevant).
I tried to restore grub.
grub
> find /grub/grub.conf
hd(0,0)
> root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type is ext2fs partition type 0x83
> setup (hd0)
and there were no error messages. However, no change when rebooting.
The device map says that
hd0 = /dev/sda
hd1= /dev/sdb
hd2= /dev/sdc
I also did a grub-install --recheck /dev/sda. All to no avail.
The following struck me as strange, but not sure how relevant :
- In grub, "find /boot/grub/grub.conf" gave me "file not found"; however, with ls I do see a /boot/grub/grub.conf and also a /etc/grub.conf
- This grub.conf file says that boot=/dev/sdc (where the boot flag is with /dev/sda) and all references are to (hd2,0) whereas the "find /grub/grub.conf" always gives me "(hd0,0)" as said above.
- There seems to be no /grub/grub.conf file on my system except under the /boot directory
- I have also tried resetting the boot flag to /dev/sdc with fdisk, but that did not help either.
- originally, I did set the system up on /dev/sdc by the way
Am just trying to guess now what other combinations I could try. I already tried in BIOS to boot from all the different devices. No luck.
Ubuntu Installation :: WinXP Attempt Install Messes Up Partitions - Auto-mounting
Dec 18, 2010Background information: I need to install WinXP on my computer to use Spectraview II software for monitor profiling. Tried it under Wine, didn't work...thought about virtualization, but Graeme Gill (creator of Argyll) said that probably wouldn't work:
Quote: The problem is that emulators often don't implement hardware details properly or at all. There's no standard way on Linux to read/write the DDC, so there is no surprise that wine doesn't emulate MSWin's API's for this. It's doubtful that any of the VM's do either. USB can be an issue too, and some instruments may not work in an emulated environment. I already had Ubuntu 10.10 installed, so thought I'd try installing WinXP after, then recovering the MBR. Lots of headache.

It is basically a Ubuntu (or variant) computer with the output going to a TV and home theater system.I would like to know if there is any way to deal with a frozen full screen application with Ubuntu?

Jan 27, 2010Have had 9.10 running for a while with no problems. Not long ago upgraded 1GB RAM to 2GB so I could run VirtualBox better. All worked fine until a few days ago, I ran the normal system update. Since then, all application windows just disappear off screen after a random? period of time.
I.e. I tried to check Software center and the window closed after getting to 5% download. Just tried the System download manager which got about 8 files into an update before logging off desktop and taking me to log in screen. I just tried Firefox and the toolbar icon was displayed while it was attempting to load, but then that disappeared.

Nov 2, 2010I used to have a feature that when you had more than one application on screen, and clicked one behind the active app, the active one would then fold back behind the new application. Like the active app would place itself behind the new app in the same way you would bring a card forward in front of another if you were playing cards. I hope that makes sense.. Anywho, I lost that setting and can't seem to find it again. And is it possible to have a plasma screen in gnome, if so, how?

Ubuntu :: Memorize Application Position On A Dual Screen And Workspace?
Dec 15, 20101) I got a dual screen and I can drag applications on screen No2. But if I log out, reboot or close the application, it will go back to screen No1. Is it possible to memorize the position of an application on Screen No2?
2) I use workspace a lot. I like to split them by function. I got "Development": Netbeans, firefox (one on each screen), "communication": Evolution, gwibber, empathy (Evolution on 1 and the rest on 2) and "Entertainment" (anything not involving work)Every morning, I have to move my applications to the diferent workspace. It would be great if on startup they just go where I told them to be!
Ubuntu Installation :: Application Launch Full Screen - Natty 11.04
Aug 20, 2011I just installed Natty, its ok so far. How can I keep applications from launching full screen? I know if I resize the window below 75% or some thing like that it does not start full screen however I need the window to launch at like 85% and not full screen. This is the most frustrating thing I don't know what Canonical was thinking. I put it in if you have to however make it easy to undo..

OpenSUSE :: Kde Screen Edge Thingy Once For Firefox With Another Application
Jun 9, 2011so have used the kde screen edge thingy once for Firefox with another application, but now every time that i launch Firefox it uses the half window option and have to maximise it every time. Is there any way to tell KDE that I wish to use maximised screen every time that Firefox launches.
Have tried putting Firefox window to middle so screen edge would maximise window, then close Firefox that it would save that setting, but not listening. Does it maybe have something to do with Kwin?
