Ubuntu Multimedia :: Guayadeque Features - Way To Control From The Task Bar Or Upper Panel?
Jul 5, 2010
I am using guayadeque and I need it to notify me about the title and the artist when a new song begins. Also it would be great if it could be controlled without restoring the window. I mean, every time I want to pause the song or skip to the next track, I should restore the minimized window and do whatever I want. Is there a way to control from the task bar or upper panel?
I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 and my volume control disappeared from the panel. I have reinstalled pulseaudio but it had not re-appeared. I can't find it in the Add Panel list nor can I find it in the Pulseaudio volume control application as an option.
Ubuntu 10.10, Acer Aspire One D255 I have been searching for a webcam program to work as Cheese did not (See: [URL]). I found GUVC (A review of it here: [URL]). So, I downloaded it from the Ubuntu Software Center and it runs GREAT! Here is the odd problem: It does not display the control panel to start recording. This would normally be at the bottom of each section from what I can tell.
I accidentally deleted the default, upper, panel and I can't see how to get it back! I've tried recreating it but I cannot see how to populate it with certain items, specifically the wireless networking control applet. So how do I get back the panel i deleted?
Since I upgraded my kernel to 2.6.31-18 I have been experiencing problems with my sound. 2.6.31-18 sound problems with nvidia MCP72XE/MCP72P/MCP78U/MCP78SThe laptop speakers no longer shut off when plugging in headphones. My sound control applet no longer appears in the panel. When launching a sound application sound starts off real loud for a second and then changes to much quieter. I have had this laptop since Hardy with never any sound issues. I do not know if it is the kernel upgrade or the accompanying backports modules. Could be neither for all I know and it just started around that time and is a coincidence.
Here is what was installed: Installed the following packages: linux-backports-modules-alsa-2.6.31-18-generic (2.6.31-18.20) linux-headers-2.6.31-18 (2.6.31-18.55) linux-headers-2.6.31-18-generic (2.6.31-18.55) linux-image-2.6.31-18-generic (2.6.31-18.55)
After upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04, I realised, to my dismay, that the volume control had vanished from the panel. I can still control the volume via the buttons on my keyboard When I right-click on the panel and go to "and to panel" as other treads suggested, "Volume Control" is not on the list
The volume control in the Gnome panel system tray has disappeared from my wife's Ubuntu 10.04 system with the master volume set to zero.I was able to restore sound via System->Preferences->Sound master volume, but this is not particularly convienent. How do I restore the panel volume control? (the speaker icon on the panel, between the Network arrows and Chat/Mail setup icons).
Whenever I log in, the upper right hand corner is garbled, and there are small white rectangles. If I log out and log back in, the problem is fixed. Could someone please help me fix this?
I've noticed that my upper gnome panel and Docky will disappear randomly. I've deleted the lower panel. The last time the panel and Docky did this, I was using Rhythmbox and Google Chrome. Tooltips will still show on Docky and the panel, and I can still select things; however, the buttons are invisible. Is there a way to prevent this from happening?
I'm looking for a good jukebox software, by good, I mean, easy to use, nice web panel, and useful features. (Okay, it's a bit vague...I admit it) So I need your help to find the "best" one (I know it would be even better to try every solution, but I'm sure I will not be able to see every features as you might have seen) I've seen so far 3 good projects:
- Ampache - Jinzora - and Subsonic
I've tried Ampache and Subsonic thanks to their demo. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get a demo of Jinzora. Ampache seems a bit 'old fashon' (The interface is not very clear, not very user friendly, ...) but seems to get good features. inzora, according to the screenshots I've seen, the interface is quite complete. And Subsonic seems to be a really good one (but in Java), a lot of features and a nice interface. I'm not asking you which one do you think is the best, but which one do you prefer and why ? Which useful features, pros and cons, etc.
I feel little silly asking this, I accidently removed from my gnome panel my internet connection, volume control and battery indicator on F11. how can I add this back. It does not show up in the add to panel menu and the applications do not give you back the default feel.
Someone on the forums had me uninstall pulseaudio to get pSX working, and now I don't have a volume control icon on the panel and when choosing to add stuff to the panel it isn't available.I re-installed pulseaudio through the package manager, but I have a feeling it didn't install everything that uninstalled with it.
I just noticed that under my panel sub menu, there are no entries after I upgraded to 4.5 from 4.4.4. Also, the embedded terminal option seems to be gone, it now only fires off an external Konsole. I really used that feature a lot and it was very handy.
Ubuntu is perfect for me, except that i have to dual boot sometimes to windows 7 for the one application that wont run in a virtual environment (LockDown Browser, and occasionally onenote). Except, i cant find tablet control features in Ubuntu, to change input devices (the touchscreen is awful, but I cant turn off the option to use finger as an input device. Also, when i boot to windows 7, the mouse track pad/left and right click doesn't work (they work in Ubuntu)? The keyboard does, and so does my stylus (which I have to use as a substitute)
This has been bugging me for a few weeks now all of a sudden i lost my email icon chat etc and the volume icon in the top notification area. i have tried deleting and re adding the notification area back but they are still missing. also sometime when i boot up i loose my minimize and close window icons on the windows??? not sure if this connected i am running Ubuntu 10.04 on a dell vostro 200
I installed HP Linux Imaging and Printing system yesterday and since then my panels are missing, is there a way to access the config files to correct this?
When I upgraded to 11.04, Ubuntu classic works fine. However, when I log into the Unity Ubuntu, all that shows up is the background, and Desktop Items. No task bar at the top (containing the time, shutdown etc) or side panel bar, with the shortcut items. Now, while I was using 10.10, I installed 11.04 as a clean install on a different partition of my laptop. Therefore I have the system requirements. However, the upgraded 11.04 causes Unity issues.
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
Running Wheezy 7.8 with LXDE desktop. I have noticed that the task bar volume control no longer seems to function. Volume can be controlled by apps, such as Youtube in Google Chrome. The volume control used to work. I really don't know exactly when this started but probably after the last update on Monday, Feb. 10 2015.
I have checked the PulseAudio settings and don't see any way there. Ran a sound test and the volume can be controlled from the PulseAudio panel but NOT the task bar volume control.
Here is a bit of interesting additional info. When I play the audio thru my analog speakers the volume control has no affect. But when I play the sound thru my USB headset, the volume control works. Very strange.
* more or less solved. still not exactly what I want but it works, mostly.
I recently loaded the latest version of Ubuntu Remix of my EEEPc 10000h.The problem I am have which I had had with some previous versions of Ubuntu is, I am prefer the classic desktop view. I also like to have control over what goes on my desktop panel. With the latest version I find that I cannot add to or delete from, neither can I move around any of the objects on the on the desktop panel.I there is some applet that has to be loaded or something in the software that I happen to be missing
I want to find a way to control compiz from my panel, basically have some custom launchers that would say rotate cube or bring up expo, i have been unable to find commands to do this, does anyone know if this is possible. even if it were a link to a bash script.
I accidentally removed the volume control from the panel (top right). I added it again (Indicator Applet), but now it's not on the far right with the time/date and wifi icons; it's in the middle part of the upper panel. How do I add applets to the far right of the upper panel?
