now I`m using Docky for my ubuntu 10.10 and I`m wondering if i can tweaks a little bit for the bottom bar 2 auto dissapear...and appear again when I hover a mouse over it...
So about an hour ago I put my computer on standby. For whatever reason I couldn't bring it back so I restarted it. It works fine except now Ubuntu has pushed my display down. This means that the bottom of my tool-bar on the bottom of the screen is cut off, and there's a black bar on the top. I'm using a T.V. screen so there is no way I can manually adjust it. I also plugged my desktop back into an old monitor and it was off-center downward too.
I'm working on a custom Ubuntu Live CD and i have some problem with "stdin error 0" appearing before the splash screen... How can i prevent this? Or hide|redirect the output from stdin?
I created bootable CD and now trying to install Ubuntu on the IBM TP. Boot sequence is starting, CD is spinning, HDD is blinking but after few seconds little picture appears on the bottom of the screen with "a keyboard key = person in a circle" ?? And it is standing there many hours w/o any action on the screen. what is this and how to continue with installation ?
I upgraded to 11.04 already. Everything worked fine but after a few reboots suddenly the launcher and the top & bottom panel have disappeared. Anyone an idea how to solve this?
I have a Lenovo TP W520 with a Nvidia Quadro 2000M (with support for Optimus)!I've tried to use the open-source optimus driver (Bumblebee), but found to many issues I had to deal with.both on 11.04 and 10.10) - therefore I've accepted the lesser batterytime... and choosed to run with "discrete" option in BIOS - setting Nvidia only mode!I can't use the 11.04, as I need iFolder (and can't get it to work with this edition, by the way I see the following problems on 11.04 too) - as a result I am using 10.10 (64-bit).
I have installed the Nvidia proprietary driver, and when attached to my dockingstation (connected to an switchbox) the laptop boots fine every time! But out of the dock, the laptop hangs at "running /scripts/init-bottom" during boot!To resolve this I've tried this (used the "nomodeset" option)... after this, it pass the "running..." every 4-5 timeAfter this I tried to upgrade the driver as described here... this may have helped - a tinytiny bitLast effort was to add "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint (MatchIsPointer "on")" and "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard (MatchIsKeyboard "on")" to "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf" according to this ... now it boot's fine every time... but at login, the login-box disappears and everything freezes! But if I choose "Safe Mode" i can login.
Just did a clean install of 11.04.Is it possible to adjust the unity launcher speed?When I take my cursor to the left it takes a while to show up. I'd like it to be immediate.
This is strange a fresh install of 10.04 Lynx when i first logged in everything was cool, then i right clicked on the 4 desktop switching boxes on the bottom right corner; then the bar blipped off.Now after i re-login the bar is at the bottom but does nothing. When i open windows or anything they are not showing up, the only way I can navigate through my windows if Alt+Tab
I built a new system with an Intel i5 and ASUS P8H-67-M LX motherboard that uses the Sandy Bridge chip set for video. It is a recent version without the original bugs. I use a 24" monitor, VisionQuest(Plain Tree Systems) and it supports 1920 * 1200. In System Settings > Monitor Preferences I confirm the resolution as 1920 * 1200. The Monitor is detected properly.
Drop down windows, such as my Firefox bookmarks drop below the bottom of the screen, without any scroll bars. I can drag the mouse pointer below the bottom edge of the screen. It disappears. In contrast, on my older system with Ubuntu 10.04 the mouse pointer will never totally disappear. The top tip remains.
It is like Ubuntu, when rendering the display, thinks I have something like a 1920 * 1280 screen, and everything in that bottom 80 vertical just falls off. Seems like a bug, and maybe a simple one to fix.
I just moved my bottom panel to the right side of the screen and set it to auto-hide., The panel hid it'self but will not un-hide when I move the mouse to the edge of the screen... I tried to re-boot, but the panel is still "stuck"Is there an easy way to fix this? Or will I have to manualy delete the panel and make a new one
Recently upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10. Tried to use the Evolution Setup Assistant. Problem is I cannot reach the "Next" button at the bottom of the screen. I have moved the panels to left and right - still no go.
I've upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04 some weeks ago and after some minor tweaking everything has been working fine. But all of a sudden, it seems after some package upgrades, I'm experiencing strange behavior: The first thing I noticed is that after reboot the default application that should be kept in the Unity Launcher have all disappeared. The unity launcher doesn't hide itself anymore. The unity launcher does not react to changes I make via the 'System Settings'->'compizConfig settings manager'->'Ubuntu unity plugin' menu (icon sizes in launcher, hiding method, etc.). Even after logout/login or reboot the changes aren't applied, although the corresponding settings in the configuration menus remain changed.
One application that used to work as a charm started giving the following error on startup: The program 'VESTA' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 489 error_code 3 request_code 138 minor_code 4) Since yesterday everything was still working properly and today I get this strange behavior, it seems that something must have changed in between. The only changes on the system in the last 24 hours are the upgrades of the following packages:
I've just installed 10.10 and the screen is shifted down (meaning, there is a black bar at the top of the Acer AL1916W monitor and the bottom menu bar is hidden - the accessible). The Acer controls seem to have no effect on this.
I recently upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 and all went well once I found the trick to force the upgrade to a beta version. (Subject of a previous post) However now having switched the PC back on after 2/3 days of not touching it, I have nothing in the top and bottom menu bars, just the icons on the desktop for the CD and a shared drive (Machine is dual boot XP/Ubuntiu courtesy of Wubi). I can change back ground but little else
'm trying to duel boot windows 7 and ubuntu 11.04 on an Acer Aspire 5736, but when I try to boot from the cd (which I burned with InfraRecorder) it first goes to a black screen with a blinking under score in the corner, then to a purple screen with a couple symbols at the bottom, and then the screen goes black and nothing else ever happens
I've upgraded to 11.04 and now Evolution doesn't work right. It shows there are unread messages in my inbox, but when I click on it, it says "Error Generating Message List" at the bottom, with an exclamation mark in a red circle. When I click on that, it says "database disk image is malformed". I've uninstalled and reinstalled Evolution, but get the same message.
I have gone through the steps in the installation for the latest Ubuntu Desktop and once I get to the final screen (entering name and password etc) I can't go any further. The "forward" button is hidden and down the bottom it states "ready when you are" and that leads to script.
I have seen several screen shots of Linux and Ubuntu with the bar on the bottom like Mac OS-X. I would like to have this, but still be able to customize the rest of the theme. Is there somewhere you can download this, or what?
I've been running Xubuntu for the past month or two on my Acer Aspire One netbook with very few problems, and generally I've been happy. But this morning, I went to boot up my netbook to check my email and when it booted, I got to my desktop, but the bars at the top and bottom of the desktop are missing. I thought at first that it was hanging during the loading of Xubuntu and that there was a serious problem at hand that might've demanded a reinstall of Xubuntu, but upon further study once I got back to my campus, I discovered that the bars have simply disappeared and that everything else runs fine. When I try to click "Panel" in "Settings", which I'm assuming is where I'd adjust settings for said bars, nothing comes up.
As I think about it, it doesn't seem like a major problem, considering everything else still seems to function fine, but I would like to have them back again.
Just installed Ubuntu.I right-clicked the bar on the bottom right where the 4 screens were and picked properties, it gave me an error and now there is nothing on the bar but the trash can. No programs and no multiple screens.
I like to have a transparent bar at the top and bottom. When i right click and select transparency or any colour,, it is present only in the center , but at the right and left corner there is no transparency.
I understand this kind of defeats the purpose of the NBR setup, but i have 4 workspaces and I want to have 3 different apps open in 3 of them, and the NBR startup in workspace 1.
so is there a way to disable this interface in specific workstations or no?
I got a problem with the bar on my desktop. I have WOW installed on my Vista drive, so I just copied the files into my Ubuntu drive. They startup fine, but the bar ( upper bar ) woun't hide when it starts. In windows you don't see the bar when you play a game. This is very annoying. I am, a complete noob in Ubuntu. Is there a simple soulution to this?
