I have this problem, however the solution given there is outdated- There is no such menu entry (I tried to see if it was disabled, but it wasn't in the menu editor either).
So how would I do this in Karmic?
Edit: I found it. As a reference: Open Nautilus, go to Edit-> Preferences -> "Media" tab -> Photos -> Your choice.
I am wondering how to change the default paths for Pictures, Documents, Music, etc to different paths (on a different partition within the same HDD). What's the cleanest way of going about this?

I click on "Import Photos" and nothing happens. I'm wondering if I can just navigate to a folder where I might find the pictures, kinda like /media/cdrom/ to get to a cd.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI automount two NTFS volumes on login. These display in both the desktop and the Unity launcher.
The first time I clicked one of them in the Unity launcher, it asked if I wanted to use Nautilus or Thunar. I chose Thunar.
Now, when I open the volumes in the Unity launcher, it always uses Thunar. When I open the volumes on my desktop, it always uses Nautilus.
Is there any way to standardize these, so that I use either Thunar or Nautilus, but not both? And how do I switch back and forth? Where can I reset the Unity launcher to use Nautilus again?

View 5 Replies View RelatedGot a wierd one. Customer of mine has a digital camera that appears to mount just fine and can retrieve pictures fine. However, The thumbnail view of the pictures does not change when the old pics are deleted from the camera and new ones are put on.
If you mount the camera and click on one of the pics and open it in the default pic viewer it appears to be a different picture than what the thumbnail shows.
Now has anyone experienced a problem similar to this? Id love to hear how you got around this.
Customer is running Karmic Koala with all updates.
I'm trying to set up my parent's PC to automatically import pictures (in the background without any prompts)from the digital camera when it is plugged in via USB. And also to back up their Home/Pictures folder via ftp. Is there a way to automatically import pictures in the background without any prompts? I am using Deja Vu to back up via ftp and it seems to work fine. There is an option for daily backup, but I don't think I can pick what time of day it backs up. Is there a better option than Deja Vu?
View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu 10.04. In order to get my photo application (digikam 1.2) to download photos off my digital camera/SD card I have had to configure Ubuntu not to 'mount' the usb connected camera when it is plugged into the pc. I can use digikam to download pictures off the camera/SD card into the pc. I'm having a problem when it comes to deleting the original pictures off the sd card/camera. Googling this problem it seems the issue is around Ubuntu only having read access to the SD card. It appears in windows world when an sd card is presented one has read/write access so things tend to 'work out of the box'.
In Linux/Ubuntu world I'm reading that digital cameras/SD cards do not (always?) work out of the box because you only have read access. If I close down digikam and launch nautilus I can see the camera/SD card but cannot write to it - I'm told I only have read access. I have also convinced my father-in-law to switch to Ubuntu but at the moment although he can download photos and view them I see no way of (ideally through digikam) of deleting the pictures off his camera/SD card.
I have overlooked some very important tools that would give me the information I'm looking for. What I'm trying to do is -
Plug in a USB camera
find /dev/camera-pseudonym
mount /dev/camera-pseudonym /camera
cp * ~/pictures
umount /dev/camera-pseudonym
and then work on adding this camera to /etc/fstab so that it will automatically mount to the usual place. I don't know how to find the pseudonym. I can, lsusb and see Bus 004 Device 009: ID 040a:05c1 Kodak Co. Digital Camera I can fdisk -l and not see any new partitions (which, with most USB devices with storage, I can usually see the partition listed in fdisk -l) After these two commands related to search FOR the pseudonym, I draw a blank and resort to manually searching /dev for things that may be useful.
This is difficult, though, because there are dozens of files named usb-something, and they're all very similar to one another, and not related to typical pseudonyms I'm used to (like /dev/usb[0-9], /dev/sd[a-z], etc) I would like to be able to find the /dev entry based on the ID 040a:05c1 because every USB devices I've tried has been listed by lsusb, and is accompanied by an ID number.How do I find the pseudonym in /dev for any usb device?
I have a Gateway NV53 with a built in webcam.Now my issue is, it DOES work, but is there a program or software available that would allow me to edit the live graphical feed of the camera? For example, on Windows the webcam software allows me to edit the saturation, contrast, brightness, etc the levels of it while I'm giving off a live feed.So while I'm on webcam 0 can basically change the saturation level while I'm on skype and go from live in color to live in black and white? Is there a rogram available to UBuntu that would allow me to do the same thing?SO that if I'm doing a live feed of my webcam I can basically change how much color I am in etc.I'm running ubuntu 10.10 if that matters
View 1 Replies View RelatedRunning Ubuntu 10.10 along side Windows7 on a 64-bit HP Pavilion dv7 Laptop. Everything works in Windows. Everything works in Ubuntu, except for 2 things.1) I can live with not being able to enable/disable wifi.) I cannot read photos from an SD card plugged into the laptops SD card reader. When I open the SD card in Ubuntu, I can see the file name, but the thumbnails show messed up pictures. Usually, the bottom half of the photo is solid green, and there are usually lines running through the photo, or it is divided into quadrants with one quadrant being ok, but the rest having the green and/or lines.I assume the driver for the card reader is not correct. Card reader works fine in Windows. So I have to reboot into windows, copy pictures from reader to a folder, then reboot into Ubuntu and I can see and open the photos just fine. Just cannot read and copy them from the card while in Ubuntu.

To do that I need to open this particular directory with feh. But what about opening a picture? For me it's more convenient because I have this assotiation in dolphin and it's not the best way to open a dir with feh in dolphin. I just click an image and dolphin opens it with "feh -FY". I was looking through man feh and found nothing.

After upgrading from karmic to lucid I can't change a default refresh rate for my crt monitor connected to my laptop (lcd switched off). I know radeon driver is trying to check what's the highest possible rate and sets it around 85, but the screen starts to "shiver". If I manualy change this setting in system settings for the screen to 75, it is ok. But I have to do this after every boot I generated xorg.conf and the appropriate modeline (it shows in the screen settings), and I added it to both monitor and screen section. Nevertheless the refresh rate is set to auto again in system settings and the screen wiggles a bit. How to disable automatic detection and force my own settings?
P.S Here's my xorg.conf:
Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"

I'm not sure what the technical term for the thing that creates midi sounds. Is it the midi sequencer? or midi driver?Regardless, I'm unhappy with the tones ubuntu produces for its drum midis. Does any one know how to change which tones it uses? I use lilypond to write percussion music and it can be easily translated into a midi file. I like to do this so that I can hear how the music sounds in real life and many mistakes.Unfortunately the toms are painfully low and hard to distinguish.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just had a quick question. I would like to burn a DVD to disc. The VOBs in the Video_TS folder have 3 Audio tracks: Stereo, Surround, Mono. By default it plays the Stereo track. Is there any way to change this? ffmpeg -i [insert_video_location] in the terminal gives me:
Code:
Stream #0.0[0x1e0]: Video: mpeg2video, yuv420p, 720x480 [PAR 32:27 DAR 16:9], 9800 kb/s, 29.97 tbr, 90k tbn, 59.94 tbc
Stream #0.1[0x80]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16, 384 kb/s
Stream #0.2[0x81]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, 5.1, s16, 448 kb/s
Stream #0.3[0x82]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, mono, s16, 96 kb/s
Will 0x80 always be the default? Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but I'm going to be playing these discs on a DVD Player without a remote (can't help it), so I won't be able to switch the audio on the fly, and they have no menus. You put it in, and it goes straight to the movie.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a problem on a fresh install of Jessie with KDE. I have three soundcards. In Wheezy I used pavucontrol once for each application to change the sink from the internal to the external soundcard, and that setting would stick each time I rebooted the system (audio would go on the external soundcard). Now each time I reboot the audio gets routed to the internal soundcard and I have to use pavucontrol each time to route the audio back to the external one. URL...
putting this line in /etc/pulse/default.pa
set-default-sink alsa_output.usb-E-MU_Systems__Inc._E-MU_0404___USB_E-MU-0E-3F04-07D80A14-027A8-STATION_01-00-USB.analog-stereo

pacmd set-default-sink alsa_output.usb-E-MU_Systems__Inc._E-MU_0404___USB_E-MU-0E-3F04-07D80A14-027A8-STATION_01-00-USB.analog-stereo
and none of them has worked. I don't know if it's a related issue, but the settings I choose in the for Phonon in the KDE multimedia settings don't stick either. I select the external soundcard as default device and upon reboot the internal one is on top on the preferences list.
I recently bought a logitech headset which is working very nice, the thing is that I cannot make it my default device when I plug it in. I edited /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf to make snd-usb-audio the default card but it only works when the computer is turned on with the headset plugged in. A workaround is to plug it and then "alsa force-reload" but I find it very ugly plus it kills all apps using audio and leaves the volume indicator unstable.
