Right now, KDE programs look like really bad. This is not a reduced color depth image, this is what I'm getting, with strange black lines around the buttons. I have only installed that particular KDE application, I have not installed KDE itself.
View 3 RepliesSo I've just recently started using awesome, but I was wondering why things look like this and how I can fix it
Just wondering why it's so 'un-decorated' I guess, I assume I'm just not running something I should be at startup, it happens on all programs and windows. http://i51.tinypic.com/afac5c.png
It's looks like windows 98
Here's another screenshot of it http://i54.tinypic.com/349ary9.png
Just all the borders, menus and stuff look horrible.

How can I take a snapshot, is it possible to 'save' everything to an ISO and burn

I am using version 10.10.
I am using Ubuntu 11.04 with Gnome 2.32.1
Like under Windows, there is a shortcut for minimizing all windows: Win+D. However under Gnome this does not work similar as under Windows. Under Windows I can just press Win+D and everything will get minimized. However under Gnome this does not work for fullscreen programs.
I have to close a fullscreen application and start it again if I just want to switch to another program like for example from a game to my browser. I don't want to close it but only minimize it.
This is my 2nd attempt at installing Debian since 5.0 several months back but I am determined to get it running this time.Install of 64bit Squeeze went well, installed the ati proprietary drivers directly from ati which resulted in horrrible performance.Uninstalled that and followed to the T. At the "aticonfig --initial" part I got the message "No supported devices detected" soI went ahead and entered the config manually. Now on normal boot I get a black screen and I can't seem to boot into Recovery mode as it hangs at Tray or ANSI.
View 3 Replies View Relatedyou can see below my taskbar Imageshack - snapshot1dj.png I would like to make the different programs running and shown at taskabar firefox,Fslint, Thunderbird to have some borders around them,
This will make them appear more clear to me.
I've been working with Macs nowadays and noticed that programs load like "instantly" once it has been open and closed.
I don't know if MAC is pre-fetching them to somewhere but it is good to start Firefox right after you closed it.
what MAC actually does and how this could be implemented ? I have 6gb of ram on my laptop. Running Kubuntu 10.04 RC1.
I am curious of how to make a GUI interface that uses multiple programs and commands. I have found wxwidgets as the most likely candidate for making my own interface.Is this the best programming language for a beginner?
View 3 Replies View RelatedNormally when a program is open an entry is placed on the taskbar in order to easily find it, which is useful when a lot of programs are open. In Ubuntu 10.04, when I moved a program to the other monitor (I'm using 2 monitors) the taskbar entry also moves to the taskbar on that monitor.
Now I switched over to Ultimate Edition, which is Ubuntu 10.04 with a lot of stuff added to it. When I drag a program to the other monitor, the entry in the taskbar disappears, but it does not reappear in the taskbar of the other monitor. So now the only way for me to find a program on this monitor if its hidden behind other windows is to use alt-tab.
Actually I had a folder called Lib, in which I had a few libraries installed and configured.(MPI, PETSc, SLEPc) I accidently deleted (by rm) the contents of that folder.
Then I reinstalled MPI,PETSC,SLEPC using the same tarballs as earlier(thus, the version etc. is the same).
I already had a fortran program with many modules and subroutine files, and the corresponding makefile which used to compile and run fine. But now when I type "make" in the same directory as before, I get this: (shortened, many similar errors)
Code:
Firstly, why is mpif90 compiling my program when I didnt tell it to? In my makefile, I have specified gfortran as my compiler....nowhere have I even mentioned mpif90. Such a thing never used to occur before.
Also, if I rename file_variable.f to file_variable.f90, these errors dissappear (I understand why, but that is not the problem), but a new error comes:
Why is the new MPI installation interfering with make ? I want to go back to how things were before I stupidly broke all installations. The errors themselves are not the problem, the problem is why the new mpi installation is interfering with make.
It seems as if mpif90 has taken over make and gfortran. I suppose I didnt install it correctly, or probably I didnt uninstall the earlier one correctly.
Everything that worked earlier doesnt work suddenly. I use ubuntu 11.04 MPICH2-1.3.2
I want to be able to do
sudo ./program.py
instead of always having to do
sudo python program.py
What do I need to change?
can open the programs pe-install, but can't open other programs or install new programs

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just installed Gnome Shell in Ubuntu 11.04 through UGR Linux and everything works fine! The only problem is that I cannot run make and make install. I get the following errors:

he clicks on everything on his GNOME desktop, and manages to delete everything, including menus, icons, etc. The people he lives with aren't skilled enough to fix it, and I live a good eight hours away. I have remote capabilities with NX, but that requires them to initiate a connection to my workstation here, which is more painful than I thought it would be. I need a way of locking down the desktop, so it's read-only, so he can't make the changes he seems to keep making. I figure I could make the .gnome directory read-only, but I don't know if that would affect the normal operation.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to modify fs/open.c and fs/read_write.c to make my modifications. I cannot find any options in 'make menuconfig' to make these files modules rather than compiled elements. I'm thinking these cannot be modules because the file system won't work without open.c and read_write.c. Is this correct - I cannot compile fs/open.c and fs/read_write.c as modules, only as compiled elements? Or, is there some way for a module to overwrite these routines when the module is installed and re-enable the routines when the module is removed?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to gave much details as possible. working directory (~/a1/shell) in the shell directory i have Makefile. also in the shell directory i have subdirectory's (obj, src, include)
My current Makefile
Quote:
#What needs to be built to make all files and dependencies
clean:
# End of Makefile
I wanted it so: all .o files are created in the obj subdirectory, and my application, sshell, is created in the shell directory.
I am getting this error when i run the make run: No rule to make target 'shell.h', needed by 'shutil.o'. stop
I build and use a custom kernel, and use the nvidia driver. This is on debian stretch.
By default, I build the image and headers packages with this line:
CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=8 nice -n19 ionice -c3 fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-something --revision=1 kernel_image kernel_headers
These kernel sources are usually the sources from debian, with a couple of more patches that I add. It appears that for nvidia-driver package versions higher than 352.79-1, the kernel headers/sources need to be prepared with 'make prepare' and 'make prepare scripts'. It's that simple. I concluded this after the nvidia dkms build failed on my custom kernel, but then succeeded after I pointed it to the full sources, but only after running 'make prepare' and 'make prepare scripts' on them. The problem is that this make-kpkg scheme doesn't appear to do this, or if it does, it doesn't properly include in the headers everything that it should.
difference between make and make bzImage commands as both are used to build source code.

When I try to compile some Java code on Ubuntu 10.10 (kernel 2.6+) using make and a Makefile.
I get an error indicating that the make utility cannot execute the java compile command (javac).
The error reads: /bin/bash: line 6: .: /usr/local/jdk1.5.0_18/bin/javac: cannot execute binary file
I am executing make as root. I have enabled permissions on all directories in the path /usr/local/jdk1.5.0_18/bin/javac and on javac itself.
I get this error whether using a jdk installed via ubuntu apt-get, or whether I install the jdk myself. And I get it using either Java 1.5 or 1.6
My machine has an 80386 processor. I notice the make utility is built for i686-pc-linux-gnu
However, I can manually compile using javac.
I can compile calling javac from within a bash script.
I can compile using the java compiler gcj from the command line: gcj --main=HelloWorld HelloWorld.java -o HelloWorld.exe
But I cannot compile java code from the makefile. Any reasons why I might be getting this error?
I want to make a file called file roller for Ubuntu 9.10. The folder has a file called install.sh and some others that are make.
I figure first I need to make a file and then run install.sh to install. But I don't know how to do this.
In linux kernel compilation steps what is difference in the functionality of 'make' and 'make modules' with respect to file system
