Ubuntu :: Folder Changed To An Image / Sort It?
Aug 6, 2010
So I had this folder containing two open office text documents, I hibernated my computer a few times while I was working on one, then when I came back I couldn't save it because apparently it was open by someone else so I exited out and tried to open it again, but the folder it was stored in turned into a picture of a white safe with a play icon on the top right corner, and when I open it, it is just the picture.

Ok, so here's the deal. A few minutes ago, I was connected to my remote machine running Ubuntu 10.10. I changed the resolution of the screen while connected with VNC, but now I can't connect to the remote machine.
How can I fix this without leaving my house?

I've been messing with settings of nautilus via
Code:
"Edit" > "Backgrounds and Emblems..."
and selected a background image.
And from that moment on, nautilus crashes (reloads) on almost every right click, menu opening, and almost any action, nautilus should do (as a file manager). Running Nautilus from Terminal and observing the output left me with a blank output ... no errors, no warnings, just reset.

I'm on Lucid Lynx 10.4 and Gnome. I have a specific partition for my document, which is in the following folder /media/Documents I don't know why a new folder /media/Documents_ has been created, and my files are in this one. Now, files' permissions are the following :
Code:
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 2010-11-13 08:05 Documents
drwxrwxrwx 9 root root 20480 2010-11-13 11:04 Documents_

recently I downloaded warzone 2100. It was downloaded in tar.gz format. I searched for the way to install it and I am not able to install it. I unzipped the folder and then changed my directory to the unzipped folder. After that I used ./configure. After doing this, when I write make, it gives error and says no make file found. What can I do to solve this problem.

I'm running Natty with the ambience theme. For some reason, my folder appearance has changed without me doing anything. See its present state here.
How do I get it back to the default setting?

When I freshly installed Kubuntu all was just fine.I was curious about how the netbook environment would look even though I am on a Desktop. So I tried it out and everything went fine.I switched back to the Desktop environment and noticed that the widget on my desktop, which normally shows the items of my desktop folder,changed into an icon I have to click first before I can see the content.I rather have it as if was when I installed Kubuntu.

I like ordering my images my date modified, but Eye of GNOME only lets you view them by alphabetical order.
Important features for me are: Going through items with the arrow keys. Zooming in and out with the mouse wheel. Being able to sort by modification date, type, or name. Being able to right click and open with either another window of the same viewer, or with another viewer. Having a simple interface
So far, I've tried:
Eye of GNOME - I love how simple it is, and if it wasn't for this sorting problem I'd keep using it. Well, that and the fact that you can't right click and open an image in a separate Eye of GNOME window while continuing to scroll images in the current window.
gThumb - Damn. So close to being a winner. Can't pass images with the arrow keys or zoom in and out with the mouse wheel, but I can sort by modification date, it's simple, and can open another window of the same viewer. But those first two points are also important for me.
Fspot - A little too cluttered when opening a single image. I don't really need to see a top panel with the other images, even if it's nice. I can go through images with the arrow keys, and zoom in and out, but no sorting by modification date.
Shotwell - Shotwell's viewer is pretty fast and simple, however it has lots of flaws for me: can't sort by modification date, can't zoom in and out with mouse wheel, can't open an image in another window while viewing it. At least it's simple and I can navigate with the arrow keys.

I've tried what feels like at least a dozen different image viewers and I'm still hunting for one that handles viewing by date taken. The trick is that I'd like to just click the jpeg as they come off the camera and then browse through all the photos in the order taken... without having to load them into a photo management application, sort them in their, then start viewing from there. Too many extra steps for too many pictures when you're looking at a collection that is already organized (using the file system, i.e., nested directories) back to 2000. I need (ideally) a viewer where I click the jpeg, then go next next next through them in the order in which they were taken. Does anyone know if this sort of thing exists?

I accidentally changed etc., folder ownership, and now my computer doesn't even start up. I tried starting up in failsafe mode and changing the ownership from the root console, but somehow I wasn't allowed to do that. Then I loaded kubuntu from a live disk and I changed etc ownership to root. I thought that would clear up the mess, but apparently live disk's root is not equivalent to system's: when I try to start up the computer I get a message saying the filesystem is readonly. I'm not too concerned, because I have a complete backup, but I'd rather avoid the time of re-installing all my software again.

I can't get Evolution to send any sort of embedded image.I've tried in the body embedded images, signatures, multiple image formats, both the exchange connector and the mapi connector, etc without any luck. EVERY time, evolution strips out the IMG SRC tag contents. Before sending it, I can view the email and the embedded image shows up fine.

I know in windows, there are such files that even if you don't have the original, the link is still in place, and you can at least get a thumbnail. My computer crashed with my camera card in it, and...partially restored my camera card? So, the pictures I took last night, have hodgepodged with other files, making them useless. The only possible backup I have for these pictures is any kind of history file ubuntu 10.02 may have made while I viewed them off the card.

Anyone know of an app that can auto sort my download folder. The problem is I use torrents and do not want applications stuck with movies, stuck with music. Is there an application that looks at the file extension and moves files accordingly? I know windows has Digital janitor but I do not believe it is supported in linux.

HiI still have a issue where nautilus occasionally wont show my home folder's contents.
(it has no images or videos or music in the home folder directly (only in sub-folders), only other folders and text files, incl dot files for settings)
I have to reboot to get it to work.
Sometimes it does it right after a reboot, a 2nd reboot then allows nautilus to see contents of the home folder.
This thread was from F12 Beta stage, now closed:

When K3B is creating an .iso image to file and fails to read a sector even at the very end of a DVD it issues you a warning and removes the file from the destination folder, regardless of what choice you made in the "remove file when completed" dialog.
I want it to leave the incomplete .iso image there so I can play with it, any suggestions cause I've searched scratched and dissected, trying to do my homework but doggone if I can figure it out,

In light of my previous achievement in wireless networking, I've decided to create a larger issue for myself to solve. Which hopefully I can get some help with. Because my system is totally kisspoped up, for those of you who get what that means. I was trying to install GRUB via the .txz package and it created a mirrored image of the /boot folder. Which for some reason contained the / folder. Which in turn held /boot and all the other folders / is expected to contain.
Now, trying to remove the extra /boot folder proved difficult, but once I finally was able to figure it out, I remembered I could removepkg and that would probably mend the situation. However, I was already 20-something percent through moving the files to trash. Now when I checked /, /boot was gone from there. Along with various other folders. SO! Apparently the /tmp/boot folder created was in reality the /boot folder, albeit in the wrong place and having the wrong contents. Somehow, one folder existed as two different versions of itself at the same point in time. Much as a Time Lord might. Deleting one made the other vanish with it.
Good news:I removed it via Thunar and it should be in the root user's trash /home and some other folders had yet to be trashed when I hit cancel, so I can still use some things Bad news:I never ran X as root, so I don't know if it HAS a trash folder I can only use things already started up because the binaries are gone, but the configuration files in /home are still there (although /usr/bin remains)
Ideally, there would be a big UNDO button somewhere in this long row of function keys. Reasonably, there should be some kind of restoration tool. Realistically, I think I'm going to have to reinstall the system, which wasn't easy in the first place due to my faulty disc bay which detects discs at will.

I have triedShotwellgThumbF-SpotNone of them has the possibility to define a shortcut which will move current picture to a defined folder.I want to get a collection of pictures to send to a friend. Before that I want to resize using imagemagick.Irfanview allows definition of locations for "Copy to" or "Move to" (F8 shows list of predefined locations, press 0-9 for copy. So effectively two key strokes). Does anyone know about an ubuntu image viewer that makes this possible with one key combination?
