Ubuntu :: Installing Explorer - Command Gedit User.reg (gedit:2573): Gtk-WARNING ** Cannot Open Display
Jan 12, 2010
I am trying to make wine work for explorer. I followed some instructions on this link [URL] To follow this link, I am supposed to
cd ~/ies4linux/ie6
cp user.reg ~/user.reg.old
gedit user.reg
1st and 2nd line went well 3rd line when I try to execute the command gedit user.reg (gedit:2573): Gtk-WARNING ** cannot open display I then /ies4linux/ie6# ls dosdevices(in blue) drive_c(in blue) system.reg(in white) userdef.reg(in green) user.reg
I've been searching for a permanent solution for some time now, but the threads containing the same error message never seem to be about the same issue.I want to:I'm not trying anything fancy, all I want to do is open a write-protected file with gedit as root, like so:
Code:
# sudo gedit /usr/bin/deadbeef
..but every time I try, no matter the file, I get this error message:
Code:
(gedit: [process #] ): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display
I already know: I can circumvent this by going:
Code:
# xhost +local:root # sudo su # export DISPLAY=:0.0
I have just finished an install of Cent 5.5. I loaded up a trunk for a software application I want to compile on cent, but I cannot read the .cpp files. The issue seems to be with the file extension. If I change the extension to .txt, they open just fine. My .FOR, .FPP, and .DAT files display fine, but the .cpp and .h give me an error, "Couldn't display...". What is the problem here that won't let me open these files in gedit?
When I try and run gedit command through terminal to edit files it won't open them

When scrolling down in nano with keyboard (holding "down" key), nano scrolls several lines at once each time. Is there any possibility to configure it so it will scroll one line each time like gedit does when scrolling in gedit?
Why is it when I run gedit, there are always tonnes of error or warning messages? (Even though my gedit ran successfully)
To name a few: 1. GConf error: failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you ned to enable TCP/IP networking for 0 RBit, or you have stale NFS lockes due to a system crash. 2. Failed to get connection to session: Did not receive a reply among others.
Just to mention again my gedit is running fine though. Is there any configuration that I missed out? or I can disable to avoid these nuisance?
Hello everyone, I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop (32-bit) and everything has been working fine out of the box (even the wireless card!), but there appears to be something wrong with NetBeans 6.8, whichI installed through the Software Center.
I set the font to Monospace size 12 and you'll see on the screenshot that the letters in NetBeans are way smaller and thinner.
I did some googling and tried to use start NetBeans with -J-Dswing.aatext=true and -J-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on, but that did not change anything.
Is there anything I can do to force NetBeans to display the font the same way gEdit does?
running 10.04 netbook lucid lynx and I have couple of simple plain gedit text files. Wheenver I open them I am always prompted "this is an executable file, with the the choice to Run in Terminal Display Cancel Run how do i get these simple text files (which are not executables unless file type got messed up) just to automatically display in gedit (they're set to open wtih gedt app).
I have used Chinese simplified language as default language, at that time I can use gedit to open some chinese file, also at panel of gedit, there were Chinese like open blah blah.
After I closed it and open it again, strange things happened, there were no Chinese words at panel , and could not display Chinese.....
Later, i have tried to logout session and login with Gnome session and set the default language as Chinese. This time, file names , program names can be showed in Chinese perfectly, somehow for gedit, nothing has changed, and English panel, no Chinese can be displayed.
I have a few .txt files that when opened in gedit give me an error "Could not open the file - gedit has not been able to detect the character encoding" HOWEVER, I can see some of the contents of the files (a few words) in the icon preview in nautilus. Also, I can open these documents in notepad (using wine) though I'd prefer to use gedit.
These might not all be txt files. I know one is directory of important phone numbers that was in some obscure format that could only be opened on a nokia phone.
The problem is, when I get to the part where I have to open the file in gedit, it says it can't open it, file not found, or something or other..So, when I manually browse to the directory '.local/share/..' there is no folder named 'applications,' only a text file. When I open it, it appears to be the home launcher file, but its in the wrong place and has the wrong name. What's going on? Shouldn't there be a folder there with my applications in it?
Is it possible to open two windows of gedit at the same time, as I want to compare the contents, line by line, of two pages of g-code for trouble shooting ?
Whenever i try sudo gedit I get: Cannot open display: Run 'gedit --help' to see a full list of available command line options. how I can open gedit as root.

How do I get rid of this new tab when I open gedit with some file? Because that tab has "*" in it which means I need to reject save-confirmation every time I exit gedit.
I am trying to use the gedit command to edit my smb.conf file. It was originally working and all of a sudden it has stopped working. I have typed.. 'gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf' but it is a no go. I used the chmod command to set permissions as.. 'chmod 744 smb.conf' However I am still unable to get the file to open. If I do the 'more smb.conf' command I am able to read the contents of the file, however I am unable to edit them.

I know GEdit has a bug which prevents it from opening a file with null () characters in it. This is a huge inconvenience for me because I frequently have to open big log files with only a couple rogue 's in them.
Sometimes I just run a quick tr -d '' < file.log > file.log.correct and open the correct file. This is a big nuisance. I would like to have maybe an external tool in GEdit that would execute the above command. I tried writing an external tool action (GEdit plugin) using just:
#!/bin/bash tr -d ''
Input is "current document", output action is "replace current document". But this isn't working. When I open the file, GEdit shows the familiar red warning; activating the external tool with the warning showing apparently has no effect (I think the script is being called but its input/output are not set).
What is it gedit uses additional that causes so many problems in root account? When run Code: # gedit /some/file it either doesn't open file at all or opens it with lots of errors...
openSUSE 11.2 Simple Chinese is supported as second language. the primary language is English. But I can't open Chinese file using gedit. it only support English? how can I solve this issue? the Chinese file is GB18030 encoding.
If a file is opened from the common prompt with something like: gedit somefile & Is there a way to close somefile while leaving the instance of gedit still open? My idea is that sometimes I will have more than one file open in gedit. I run a script daily that updates to a log file. The log file is then opened and viewed with gedit.
Strange line of text appeared on open gedit page on first use after upgrade from 10.04 t0 10.10. I was reading something and copypasting the odd bit onto a gedit note: left the room, returned to find blank page except for "nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn". Then I saw that it was just the tail-end of a longer line which had stretched the page width to max, and by deleting backwards I arrived beneath my intact notes. The line was "I[my bolding]nnnnnnnnnn...nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnby v9898". I googled v9898. And there's a v9898. com. It provides something for Windows systems.
