View 2 RepliesWhen I start the tightvncserver (vncserver -geometry 1600x1024 :1) and then connect to it with a vncviewer (tightvnc 1.3.0 on Win7 or vncviewer on 9.10) and then start a terminal (gnome-terminal or xterm) the m key it opens the envelope tab on the panel. The 's' key opens the shutdown applet.This did not happen on 9.10, or earlier

When clicked on, it now appears in the middle of the screen (sometimes even higher depending on resolution). This never happened prior to Maverick Meerkat.
How do I go about to fix this strange bug?
Attached is a screen shot of what I mean.
Regarding the gnome-panel in Ubuntu (64 bit).... I discovered some time ago that I wasn't the only one who routinely (every login) had their gnome-panel appear butchered, for which Alt-F2 then 'killall gnome-panel' would easily fix.
Having become impatient with this over the past 8 months, I decided I would automate the process and so cofiguring the startup applications seemed like a perfectly logical choice to me. Turns out I was wrong. After adding 'killall gnome-panel' to the startup applications not only does the panel fail to load altogether now, but Alt-F2 doesn't even work.
I tried Ctl-Alt-F1 and working with the graphics-free mode thinking I could somehow navigate to the startup apps config file and edit it, but I don't know where it is or how to edit it without logging in as root and I certainly don't know of any 'root password'.
How I can set that my left panel fit the top edge of the screen (instead of top panel)?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Ubuntu and really like it so far, having come from a PC background up to now. I've installed it on my Acer laptop and all is well there. However, on my desktop, the screen resolution doesn't match the Ubuntu desktop and fonts and graphics are very blurry. The hardware I have is:
HP Compaq dx2450 micro-tower FE281EA
Samsung 23" widescreen monitor, native resolution 1680x1050
When I check the resolution using System > Preferences > Display it says that indeed I'm using 1680x1050, which should be correct. However, the bottom of the Ubuntu desktop is cut-off, below the bottom of the screen, so I can only see the very top edge of the bottom panel. The top panel is also slightly cut off, missing about the top 20% of the panel. Left and right seem to be in line OK. The resulting blurriness of fonts makes it fairly unusable until I get it fixed.
I've searched fairly extensively and I realise there are other threads on this so sorry for posting again, but they all seem to be slightly different problems and all the responses are fairly or very technical. Maybe I can't avoid a technical solution and getting my hands dirty with a terminal prompt, but I'm hoping I can fix this without resorting to stuff I don't understand and might get wrong. I'm a technically minded end-user but not a unix guy.
So I take a glance at the time, and realize the clock has been showing the same hour for ages.Basically, if I use the gnome-panel menu for launching empathy the panel freezes. The workaround that I use is switching off showing seconds and switching it on again on the date format menu of the panel. (I never used seconds on the date format, but that way you realize the panel is frozen)I've seen this behaviour in two diferent computers I use, any hint on what may cause this? Every applet keeps working as usual, but the menu display is frozen.I'm on 10.04, using version 2.30.2 of gnome. Steps to reproduce: click on the envelope icon of the menu and launch xat. It only happens the first time (when empathy is loaded) and it gets solved if you start empathy through sessions or whatever (The problem with the sessions workaround is that I can't manage to make it started without focus).

View 6 Replies View RelatedSo I just updated my IdeaPad to Natty and played around with Unity. The performane was absolutely unbearable so I installed Unity2D from the software center. Now when I start the session everything seems to be fine at first. Whenever I move the mouse over the panel though it seems to switch to my old gnome-panel from the "Classic" session (with some missing icons). When I move the mouse over that panel again it switches back to the Unity panel style. What is going on? Can I fix this somehow? I will have to use the classic session until I get a working consistent behavior

View 4 Replies View RelatedI upgraded a working Ubuntu system that I'd previously configured to accept tcp connections for the X server, which it's magically gone and added back in again. I can't now figure out how to disable it.
I've edited /etc/gdm/gdm.schemas and changed DisallowTCP to false. I've edited /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc and removed the nolisten tcp line, but it still comes up with it.
The System->Administration->Login Screen has no option for security (pretty sure that's how I fixed it last time).
Does anyone know how to disable a keyboard on Ubuntu?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI was messing around with the alternate character panel app and made a custom character set. I then wanted to put it on a new panel and created a new panel. I moved the character set to that panel, and then started to mess around with the panel settings (auto hide, show hide buttons, and expand, to be specific.) So far so good, until I moved the panel from the right side of the screen to the top. I already had a panel here, and it seemed not to like hiding a panel when there was already one on the top.
When the new panel hid itself, all my panels stopped responding (any clicks on them did nothing) and my processor started going at 100%. I tried a reboot and the only thing that changed is that now I can't even see my panels. I'm guessing I need to change the settings back manually through the prompt, but I don't know how to do that. I am using 10.04 and have not upgraded gnome since upgrading to 10.04.
Is it possible to install Gnome-panel in Xfce? I'd like to completely replace xfce-panel with gnome-panel. It is possible the other way round so maybe this way too?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit on an HP Pavilion dv5.
I'm running into some weird behavior while using xinput to disable the keyboard that might be an underlying bug, and I'm wondering if anyone could reproduce it or provide any insight into what's causing it. I'm running Ubuntu desktop 10.10 64-bit in a VMware Workstation VM running on a Windows 7 64-bit host.First I use "xinput list" to find out which keyboards are present in the system. In my case there's only one with id=9. Next I execute "xinput set-prop 9 "Device Enabled" 0" to disable the keyboard at id=9. Now, if I type this into the terminal and hit enter, the keyboard gets disabled but at the same time the enter key becomes stuck. The system thinks the enter key is being held down.
However, if I make a script with the same command and execute it by clicking it in Nautilus, the keyboard gets disabled and no keys are stuck. It seems if the keyboard is disabled with a press of the keyboard, then whatever key was pressed to trigger the disabling of the keyboard becomes stuck.
You might ask why I would want to disable the keyboard in the first place. It's because I'm running Ubuntu in VMware Unity mode, where the system in the VM is integrated with the host desktop system, the VM's windows appear as individual windows on the host desktop,etc. In this mode, whenever I close a VM window by hitting a key on the keyboard (for example, hitting Ctrl+D while in gnome-terminal) and focus goes back to a host window, then that key becomes stuck the next time I open a VM window. If I close a VM window by clicking the mouse then there's no problem. I'm pretty sure now that this is caused by the above mentioned bug from disabling the keyboard. I think in Unity mode VMware workstation runs a script to disable the keyboard in the guest whenever VM windows lose focus, so key presses don't continue to be piped to the guest OS. However, if this action is triggered by a press of the keyboard, then that key becomes stuck in the guest OS.
I am having a problem using my laptop's special keys to toggle my touchpad on and off on my ASUS G73JH laptop, running Ubuntu 10.10 (2.6.35-28-generic-pae).
First, some preliminaries:
My touchpad works just fine, but it does not respond to my laptop's special key, Fn+F9.
In /etc/acpi/events I have the following script, "asus-touchpad":
Code:
# /etc/acpi/events/asus-touchpad
# This is called when the user presses the touchpad button and calls
# /etc/acpi/asus-touchpad.sh for further processing.

I've just upgraded to 11.04, but Unity is unfortunately not my cup of tea. I use the classic desktop but I cannot find a way to disable a certain graphical desktop effect... I'm thinking of how the current workspace quickly slides into the next when I choose a different workspace.
If my recollection is correct, you could turn effects like that off in 10.10. This makes me dizzy, does any of know how to turn this off?
I can't figure out how to prevent Zend Server starting at boot up. My temporary solution is to issue the following after boot-up:
Code:

I'd like to:
1. Prevent it from starting during boot
2. Create two launcher icons to Start and Stop Zend Server
have a custom kernel I compiled so hardware would all work properly under Ubuntu 8.10 if there is a way to disable it telling me I need to update my Kernel in the updates section just because my 2.6.27-11-generic is different from the one they have. For now I have just been unselecting it when I update everything else but I know myself and one day I will forgot to uncheck it and then I will be recompiling my kernel again.
