I keep losing the normal icon top left in the top panel that gives options to power down/restart etc. Is this a know fault with 10.04 - I can get it back with a terminal command but it would be nice if it remained there all the time.
View 2 RepliesAfter a recent upgrade, the red power icon in the far right of the upper panel disappeared. In its place is a half obscured copy of my user name, which appears right next to my user name (along with the chat icon). The chat icon/user name is functional, as it is supposed to be, but the half obscured user name that replaced my shutdown/restart power icon is just a bug, and has no function. Not only is it unsightly, but I miss the power icon. Yes, I can right-click on the panel and add one, but it doesn't allow me to drag it all the way to the far upper-right corner, where it is supposed to be located... I found this post in another thread: sudo apt-get install indicator-applet-session, but it did nothing to solve my problem.. I'm running 64-bit 10.10, btw, if that makes any difference.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI installed Ubuntu 10.10 a while back using Wubi. I have it installed alongside Windows XP. Just yesterday the power went out in my house while I was booted into Ubuntu. When I turned my computer back on I still have the option to select Ubuntu or Windows, but now when I select Ubuntu I get right into a grub prompt. Grub used to give me a list of kernals but now it just sits waiting for commands.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to make the power Icon at the top right of gnome panel larger in 10.04? This has been a problem for a while now. For people with less than perfect eyesight (my mother) it is far too small to be functional. Increasing the size of the panel to something useful on a large screen increases the size of most icons also, but the power button remains resolutely tiny. Another problem for her is the selection of window edges (too be honest, I find this frustrating myself) The selection area is incredibly small on a 22" screen and impossible for her to select.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy power button icon on the toolbar in Unity is invisible -- that is, it occupies the far right-most column of pixels and displays no icon. (See attached screenshot -- the power button menu only comes up with the mouse all the way to the far right (where you can't really see it in the screencap.)).Any idea how to get it back? It's not a big deal, but it'd be nice to avoid being made fun of by my OS X/Wind0ze-using friends for having an invisible power button.I have Natty installed, but using the same /home (and thus the same config files) from previous installs. Might that be the problem?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using the fully updated version of Ubuntu 10.4. The volume icon is missing from the top panel and adding the "notification area" does not do anything - I can double-click the icon, or drag it over, and nothing appears in the panel. Adding the "Indicator Applet" also has the same result. I do not know what applet to add, nor do I know why the volume icon is missing. The power icon, the network icon, the mail icon, and the rest of the applets are all there - only the volume icon is missing.
Also, when I press "fn + pg up or pg dn," it would usually change the volume and display a notification showing that the volume changed. This does not happen anymore: no notification, no sound change. I can still hear audio, but can not change the level.
My laptop(ubuntu 10.04) works great before ( with sounds )but after reboot,it has absolutely no sound.There is no sound icon on the top-right panel.When I try System > Preference > Sound, it show " waiting for sound system to response".

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04, and now I'm experiencing some problems with the displaying of panels and icons that I'm hoping someone can help me to fix.
Situation: Running 11.04 in latest virtualbox (4.06, with guest additions installed) on a macbook pro running snow leopard (10.6.7). I'm in gnome classic (no effects) because I'm not yet used to gnome 3 and compiz doesn't run all that well for me in this virtualization set-up. But the problem, described below, is consistent from gnome 3 to classic (with effects) to classic (without effects).
Problem: When I first log in after a reboot, everything looks great in the default settings (ambiance theme, I think), but after ~ 15 seconds, the panels and icons revert to an odd looking theme that I don't particularly care for. And trying to change the settings in the "Appearance" preferences is of no help, i.e., I can change the themes, but the panels and icons remain in a stock, old-school gnome-ish theme.
I accidentally removed the little mail logo that monitors Empathy and Evolution from the Panel, how do I put it back?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to do is change the icon that the deskbar applet shows in the panel. I've read that you can change the icon that is in the text input box (url), but I've had no luck finding any thing to change the actual panel icon.
tl;dr version:
I want to change this icon: url
The icons in /usr/share/deskbar-applet/art/ don't manipulate this icon.
and I can't seem to get it to come back. does anyone know how I can get it to come back? It's really inconvenient having to open System > preferences > sound just to change the volume on anything.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI had Ubuntu 9.07 installed for a long time and I wanted to reformat my computer (because the Windows XP partition was running horribly - what else is new, right?). Anyway, there used to be an icon on the Ubuntu desktop panel that looked like a computer monitor and I recall an associated GUI where I set up access parameters for VNC and the Ubuntu partition; it asked if I wanted people to have to enter a password, etc. Now, I cannot recall how the hell I installed that feature. I had made some notes and they said to do the following - which I've done:
sudo apt-get install xtightvncviewer
sudo apt-get install xvnc4viewer
sudo apt-get install tightvnc-java
sudo apt-get install vnc-java
sudo apt-get install vnc4server xinetd
Still - I can't find that setup GUI, there is no icon on my panel, etc.
I would like to have an icon on my top panel for changing my volume level and muting my sound. how would i go about doing this?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI don't know what could be causing it, but my Icons from the panel sometimes won't show the whole icon, sometimes it show two icons overlapping each other, I was hoping it would be that I should have set the Panel size according to a "better" and standard Icons size, but that did'nt solve the problem as I changed to 48px; does anyone have a clue what could be causing it?
