Ubuntu :: Gnomenu Available For 11.04 ?

May 16, 2011

I have used "Gnomenu" in the past and thought it was quite good. I did have some stability problems with it, or it seemed that way. My question is as follows.

Is Gnomenu available for Ubuntu 11.04.

Is it stable and lastly is there anything better.

I don't like to use Compiz or Emerald or anything fancy as i find

I end up with problems with my title bars etc.

Ubuntu :: Mac Theme For Gnomenu?

Feb 18, 2010

I had a theme with Gnomenu before where there was a small black apple for the start menu with a gray panel. The rest of the menu was in the style of the default menu. I have reinstalled since and can't find this any more. Do any of you happen to have the theme I'm talking about?

Ubuntu :: Get Gnomenu To Open With The Win Key?

May 14, 2010

I'm still on that steep learning curve but have been enjoying playing around with the desktop environment. I've installed gnomenu and would like my win key to open it.

How do I manage to do this? I notice in the Gnomenu Settings that the "Bind keyboard key ex: Super_L" is ticked but not sure what this means exactly.

Fedora :: How To Install GnoMenu

Jul 18, 2010

This guide will show you how to install GnoMenu 2.9 on Fedora 12/13, & how to install custom themes for GnoMenu. I will cover the install feature that is built into the software, & the manual install procedure. Because personally I have NEVER been able to get the built-in install feature to work. If it works for you, Great! If not, you can still install manually.

Download & Install GnoMenu 2.9

1.) Visit the Official GnoMenu site and download the latest version of the program. (2.9 at time of writing)

1a.) https://launchpad.net/gnomenu. (notice: This is also a secure site)

1b.) DO NOT download and install this program from any unofficial source.

2.) Open the archive you just downloaded. (gnomenu-2.9.tar.gz)

2a.) Copy the entire folder (gnomenu) from inside the archive, to your /tmp folder.

3.) Open a terminal and run the following commands.

Code:

3a.) This is the actual install process. It should not take very long at all.

4.) After the installation is finished, browse to your /tmp folder and delete the /gnomenu folder. It is no longer needed.

5.) Right-click your panel and select 'add to panel' from the context menu.

5a.) In the "Add to Panel" window select GnoMenu and click the 'Add' button. (as shown)

GnoMenu 2.9 is now installed. So first of all, you should remove the standard 'Menu Bar' from your panel and move the GnoMenu button to the far left of your panel (kinda like the windows start button). You can of course place the button anywhere on the panel. The choice is yours.

Now, lets right-click the GnoMenu button and select 'Properties'. The dialog box that opens lets you choose & install various theme elements, as well as setup all other options and features... Lets take a quick look at the tabs on the Properties dialog before moving on to the manual theme installation procedure.

The 'Themes' Tab.

This tab allows you to select the themes you want to use, & install new themes. The 'themes' are divided into four categories: Menu, Button, Sounds, and Icons. To install a new theme, press the Install button for the type of theme you are installing and select the theme archive you have downloaded. You DO NOT extract the theme files from the archive. I cannot get this method to work so I have included a manual install guide at the bottom of this thread.

The Preferences Tab.

This tab contains a LOT of various settings! You will just have to play around with them and find the setup that works best for you and the theme that your currently using. With some menu themes I like to increase my Icon Size, or use my system icons instead of the theme icons. These options are all personal preference.

The Commands Tab.

This tab allows you to set custom commands for all of the various buttons on the Menu's. Such as Shutdown, Restart, Lock Screen, Help, Search, ect., I suggest leaving these values alone unless you need to change one of them for some specific reason...

GnoMenu 2.9 is now installed and configured. Lets move on to installing a custom theme...

Manual Installation for Custom Themes.

If your built-in install feature works as well as mine does, then you will have to manually install all of the themes that you download. In order to do that you must copy files into a directory that needs Root access!! We could Log in as Root, but this is not very safe, and it would be very inconvenient. So we are going to make a Launcher that will open a new instance of Nautilus with Root permissions. When you close that instance of Nautilus the Root permissions will no longer be active. So this makes it easy to access directories that need Root permissions, & it does not create a security issue...

1.) Download a custom GnoMenu theme...

1b.)Download: 'Carbon' Menu Theme (carbon.tar.gz) - I uploaded this file - Find more @ gnome-look.org

2.) Create a new Launcher on your Desktop.
2a.) In the 'Type' box select 'Application in Terminal'.
2b.) In the 'Name' box type 'Browse Files as Root'. (or anything you want)
2c.) In the 'Command' box type: sudo 'nautilus'
2d.) Leave the 'Comments' box empty... and click 'OK'

3.) Extract the 'Carbon' folder from the archive you just downloaded. (carbon.tar.gz) unto your Desktop

3a.) Dbl-Click on your new Launcher and open Nautilus with Root permissions. (You may or may not be prompter to enter a password. Depending on how you have SUDO configured on your machine)

3b.) Inside Nautilus copy the entire 'Carbon' folder from your Desktop and paste it into the following location:
/usr/share/gnomenu/Themes/Menu

Your Custom Theme has now been installed and you can set it to be used by entering the GnoMenu properties and selecting it on the 'Theme Tab'. You can download hundereds of different Menu, Button, Icon, and Sound themes for GnoMenu by visiting the GnoMenu Theme Area at: www.GNOME-LOOK.org

NOTICE: each type of theme has it's own folder that it has to be installed into, or it will not work at all. Here is a list of the correct directories..

Ubuntu :: UnicodeDecodeError In GnoMenu On Avant Window Navigator

Mar 27, 2010

I decided to bite the bullet and install AWN 0.4 beta, because it supported GnoMenu. However, adding the GnoMenu applet to AWN triggers a UnicodeDecodeError, which looks something like this:

The traceback is as follows:

Ubuntu :: Gnomenu Reporting OAFIID:GNOME_GnoMenu When Adding To Panel?

May 2, 2011

I've done a quick google search and didn't really find anything that I understood. I DID find a reference to the bug on launchpad, but supposedly it was fixed as of version 2.1 and I'm running the latest version I could find which I believe is 2.9 so I'm a bit lost.

Any help would be great, if you need more info, just tell me how to get it and i shall do so as I really am missing gnomenu. If it makes any difference, I'm on ubuntu 11.04 64bit running in classic mode

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Suddenly Stopped Working AND Rfkill Command Not Working

Jul 13, 2011

When originally installing 11.04 I had problems getting my Ralink 5390 wireless card to work.

Today my computer froze completely and I had to turn it off via the power switch. When I turned it back on, wireless was no longer recognized! My iPod can connect to the network just fine, so it must be an Ubuntu problem. There are no problems with my ethernet connection either.

I researched this and found several threads about blocking and unblocking wireless devices using the rfkill command. Well, unfortunately for me the rfkill command doesn't work. When I type sudo rfkill list or sudo rfkill unblock all, nothing happens; it just returns me to my bash prompt. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling rfkill...nothing.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wired Internet Not Working Since Update / Wless Not Working

Jun 21, 2010

I have been looking around the forums searching for similar problems, it seems not only me had this problem. About a month ago I did a regular update via Upd Manager. The next day - no wired connection.Still managable, since the local library has wireless. Now that won't work either.Just after I upgraded from Jaunty, I accidentally removed NetwMngr from the top right corner of the screen, but that should not have anything to do with how the program works, right? I now cannot reach NM, if I run it from the terminal, nothing happens visibly.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Updating NVidia Driver Not Working, Tried Manual, Not Working?

Sep 18, 2010

I installed it on a Dell Inspiron 531 with the GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 built in video card. From the recommend driver list I installed �NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version current) [Recommended

Well, turns out it should not have been recommended. I had restarted and all I got was a low res ubuntu logo and a boot right into a full screen terminal. Tried startx and got a no screens found, I look online for about an hour last night and decided to just reinstall, which takes a couple hours when installing all the packages.

I have done more research today and found to install the latest linux x64 driver from nVidias website, which I did, but it does not run. I followed some more instructions and it said to do a �sudo chmod +x <file>� which I did, and it starts to open and I get �You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before installing.�

I�m starting to get a little frustrated here, guess I�m just used to a lot of the ease of windows and assumed that something like installing a graphics card driver would be easy.

Nov 17, 2010

I have a Dell Latitude D530 Laptop (500 GB HDD). Installed Windows XP and then Ubuntu 10.10 to do dual boot. everything works fine in Windows XP.In Ubuntu 10.10 I had issues connecting to Internet(Through Wirelss), I was able to rectify this issue by dsiable ipv6 from firefox about:config and setting true to network.dns.disableIPv6. After this I was able to connect to internet and browse websites from Firefox.But I am having Issues with Evolution Mail(Connection Timed Out) and Google Talk Client(Connection Timed Out).Empathy Internet Messaging gets connected fine.I was wondering if I will have to disable IPv6 System wide and hence I added the following lines to /etc/sysctl.conf

#disable ipv6
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Card Working On 10.04 32bit But Not Working On 10.04 64bit!

Jul 25, 2011

I had an Ubuntu Server 32 bit installation and everything was working fine. Now that I installed Ubuntu Server 64bit on a new drive in the same machine, the ethernet card is not working!! This is insane cause when I put the hard disk with the 32bit installation back and booting from it, the ethernet card is working without any problems but in the 64bits installation it is not shown at all using "ifconfig -a"

lspci output:

Quote:

02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications AR8151 v1.0 Gigabit Ethernet (rev c0)

How can I check which module is being loaded in the 32bits installation to try to load it manually in the 64 bits installation?

Ubuntu Servers :: Samba 3.0.28a - ACL Working 3.5.2 ACL Not Working?

Apr 23, 2010

I upgraded Samba to 3.5.2 to enable Windows 7 to log in to the PDC. ACL was working with the Samba 3.0.28a that came with 8.04LTS. After upgrade I can now log in to the domain with Win 7 but ACL permissions are not working on Win7, XP or anything. They still show on the server but any attempt to change permissions on the workstation fails with "Access is Denied" and only user/group/other permissions are doing anything. Anyone know what changes for the ACL were made between the two versions? I know they're working on switching to VFS modules but setting "vfs objects = acl_xattr"

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Intel PRO 2100 Not Working - RF Killswitch Button Not Working At All?

Feb 18, 2010

I followed the sticky about setting up wireless and I have come to an issue where the WLAN switch which is on this computer can be pressed, the light comes on, but no WLAN. When I looked in dmesg, this is what I get:

ipw2100: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Connection
firmware: requesting ipw2100-1.3.fw
eth0: Radio is disabled by RF switch.

When running iwconfig wlan0 heres what I get:

home/j-dub # iwconfig eth0
wlan0 unassociated ESSID off/any Nickname:"ipw2100"
Mode:Managed Channel=0 Access Point: Not-Associated

[code]....

Notice it says that the 'Radio is disabled by switch' in dmesg. I can press that switch until the end of the world comes and it does absolutely nothing but make the WLAN light put on a light show. And it shows the wlan to be unassociated with any clients. So, what are my options to get this Wireless up and working?

Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo M7400

However, these same ports work perfectly to coppy files onto pendrives or external hdd. However, the USB 3.0 works perfectly for everything. The last thing I expected was the newer 3.0 to work and not the older 2.0. btw, my mouse is a generic, brandless laser mouse (it is an inhouse brand of PC CITY stores: PC LINE). I have never had any problems with it before.

Fedora :: Working Wireless - Now Not Working After Adding WPA

I recently moved into my room-mates house and her wireless was not secure as I was able to log on to it unsecured with my Fedora 12 Laptop. After Securing it with WPA all the windows computers had no problem getting back on to the now secure wireless. Using GNOME I went to SYSTEM then PREFERENCES and NETWORK CONNECTIONS and clicked on the wireless tab and configured wireless security tab and configured for WPA WPA2 Personal. No problems. But when I go to the gnome tool bar and click on the network and see our SSID it wants to use WEP 40bit and others methods but has no selection for WPA.

Ubuntu Networking :: Stops Working In 10.10 And Firefox Randomly Stops Working?

Nov 13, 2010

I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat 64-bit on my desktop with a wired internet connection (with no firewall). For the past 2 days, I have observed that1. Firefox randomly throws up errors like "Problem loading page" whenever I click on a hyperlink. When I click on Reload, the page loads up just fine. This has been happening a lot recently..and I do not remember updating anything consciously. By the way, ipv6 is disabled in Firefox.2. The network stops working all of a sudden (usually indicated by the Firefox error). The Autho Eth0 indication is active, but I am unable to connect to any external machine.

3. Needless to say, this error is manifesting itself in apt-get as well. I get "something wicked happened" errors all the time, and am unable to download or install anything.That this is not a problem with the ISP is obvious because I also have Windows (from which I'm typing this, ironically), which is able to access the internet.Is this a bug in Ubuntu 10.10?
