Does anyone have a suggestion for a *simple* calender alarm application? Something that will pop up when I open up the system and tell me "Take out the trash today!" (Actually, it needs to say; 'TAKE OUT THE TRASH TODAY, DUMMY!') I've looked at *Evolution* but it is too much application for what I need. My system is Ubuntu 10.04 OS with 3gb of RAM.
View 5 RepliesSuddenly the application launcher (the one that pops out when pressing the green chameleon button) has changed and I no longer get the formerly so pretty application launcher. Instead I now get a simple context menu style drop down menu.
I first noticed this after I updated PackageKit. is there a way to get this back to the previous applicationn launcher. When adding just the applet (without the button) it still looks the same, just the button doesn't pop it out anymore, as it chose to pop out a grey drop down instead.
This is on OpenSuse 11.4 KDE 4.5 and the latest desktop kernel
Looking for a good calender app.

But I'm still not sure, can I have a profile which is applied to all applications I run (not listed in other profiles)? That would be great to have a "Simple Application" default profile, with permissions, say, to read/write to app's folder and to display graphics/play sounds!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like the calender to boot come on the screen with only the month ctrl 3 and the contact/control panel on the left.
I do not want the Event or Task areas to show. I don't use them that much and there are buttons to call them if I do need to make notes.
I only want the numbered squares and buttons/icons to be displayed.
I've dug here:
/home/dave/.gconf/apps/evolution/calendar/display/%gconf.xml
.evolution/calendar/local/system/calendar.ics
/home/dave/.gconf/apps/evolution/calendar/%gconf.xml
I would like this to be a permanent feature when I call it from my task tray.
I am trying to make an application server that would contain simple ones like edit, openoffice, gimp, so on and so forth. I know how to access these using ssh but what I want is that the application runs on that server as it already does, but to open local files and save them locally.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have an Ubuntu 10.10 in my work environment and have issues handling the Exchange 2007 server's public calender.My outgoing server is SMTP | Incoming server is POP3 (my office have disabled IMAP and run MAPI). First I tried evolution but it said ""The server is running Exchange 5.5, evolution-exchange connector supports 2000 and 2003 Server" Installed thunderbird and i am happy with it. The only thing which i would like to do is access my exchange public calender and firefox will not be able to do it in OWA.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just installed openSuse 11.2 with kde4 and want to import my data into korganizer. I saved my tasks and dates from kde3 as a vcs file.
Unfortunately the new version of korganizer does not show any entries in this file. I thought vcs is a valid import/export format.
Is there a way how I can import my data into korganizer?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for an easy to use alarm clock program that I can suggest to new users. The two I have tried so far have fallen short of my expectations. "Alarm Clock" from the Ubuntu software repository starts out okay, but when the alarm actually goes off, getting it to stop seems pretty unintuitive. Click on the Alarm Clock icon, then click a Stop button in the new window that pops up. Sounds easy enough except that the icon used for "Stop" is just this grey square, so for users who are not familiar with linux or this program, it isn't even obvious that it is a button. I had one user actually uninstall the thing in order to get it to shut up. Preferably one should be able to silence the alarm by click on the alarm icon (or right clicking, if a 'doze' behavior is preferred) The other one I tried was alarm-clock-applet, which wants me to locate an alarm sound on my filesystem. Uh, no.
Does anyone know of a simple, basic alarm clock system that anyone can just sit down and immediately use without having to 'get in to the head' of the developer? Are the KDE alarms better? Am I missing something about either of these programs which would make them easier to use?
Does anyone know what this program does and how to remove it? I did a complete removal of evolution, and deleted the .evolution folder yet this job still runs. How do I remove it to get a clean install?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI installed 'Alarm Clock' from the Software Center and would like to have said app autostarts. There is an option in Alarm Clock to autostart with Gnome but that doesn't work so I assume the reason being I'm not root.
How to autostart Alarm Clock?
Also, in System > Preferences > Startup Applications, the 'Add' asks for a command. Is this like Windows whereas I simply point it to the app I want started? I don't even know where apps are installed. Who said ignorance is bliss?
Any alarm clock program I can run on xubuntu.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've seen in Evolution Calendar where you can have an audio alarm in addition to the pop-up and notification. For the life of me, I cannot find that now. I am Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with Evolution 2.28.3 - the latest in the repository. I just can't find an option for audio alarms...
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo, I'm attempting to write an alarm clock from scratch without a GUI, doing this through a bash script. So far I wrote the file that actually initiates the song, and I was trying to set up a crontab so I could do it at a certain time, making it function like an alarm clock, but it isn't seeming to work, any input on why
Code:
SHELL=/bin/bash
12 5 * * * /home/angelo/music.sh
That is my crontab
I'm trying to set up the Alarm Clock app to automatically launch Rhythm Box and begin playing a specific internet play lists I have there. I have one template set up to launch Pandora and I could probably get it to launch Rhythm Box but, how do I get it to launch Rhythm Box and begin playing a certain radio station playlist?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI need an alarm / reminder system for all the crap I have going on. I want one that will pop up and remind me of a given task. Sounds, bleeps, rings, bells, etc., would also be great. Doesn't evolution have such a thing? IF not, what about online options. But I really prefer sg on this computers so I can still get the reminders when I am offline.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI must be overlooking something here, but I can't find out how to add "Alarm Clock Applet" to my panel. In Ubuntu Software Center, there's a picture of the program right in the panel and feature to add to panel, but there's no option for me to do this. "Add to Panel" doesn't have the application either.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm running Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 and in the UK we changed from GMT to BST last Sunday (27th March)
On GMT I was waking on LAN at 23:30, all was working fine then we changed to BST. What I usually do is leave the BIOS clock on GMT and change the Wake on Alarm to 22:30. I did this, shut down Ubuntu fine, but its not waking up at all at 22:30, or any other time I set the WOA to. I had this problem a few years ago on an old ASrock mobo and cant remember how I sorted it - maybe by blanking the bios, cant remember.
I have a National Instruments gpib interface PCI card on my machine. It has been working up till now.The computer was moved when I was gone, and now at start up I get two alarm beeps from the motherboard speaker, no grub menu (hidden line is commented out and time out is gtr than 0).In the past I had to lock the kernel to 2.6.32-28.55.newer kernels broke the interface...although prolly foolioshly, I did allow other system updates.
