View 1 RepliesI want conky to run at startup. I put an entry in startup applications but when it starts it covers everything (see attached image). I can fix it (i.e. moving a window over it covers conky) by running killall conky && conky , but I don't want to have to do that all the time.
I suspect the problem has to do with the window type, but don't know how to fix it. Also, I don't want to lose sight of the icons/files on the desktop.
Here's my conky.rc:
This is so bizarre I'm not even sure what to search google for. When I log in, the GDM background stays on one of my screens. It appears, however, that Gnome and my applications are running properly on that screen - as I move the mouse around, the pointer changes just as I would expect. The GDM root window is simply covering everything. I've tried logging out/in and rebooting, but that hasn't helped. I assume that if I simply kill the GDM processes that my session will exit. This seems to have started since I last installed updates (that's why I rebooted the first time earlier today).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just got round to upgrading to 11.04 over the weekend, and generally I'm happy with the new desktop - except. In common with several others I appear to be unable to get the launcher to autohide, except this is not a sudden occurence - it has never autohidden, even immediately after install.
Steps tried include:
1. Log Out / In and reboot
2. Installing Compiz Config Settings Manager - I have tried all the options for autohide, with no change
3. Setting the autohide to none - with a widescreen laptop this wouldn't have been disastrous, but maximised windows still fit behind the launcher.
4. Dragging icons from the desktop to the launcher on various workspaces - still no effect.
I don't want to have to resort to Ubuntu Classic, but not being able to use maximised windows is a bit of a pain.
after upgrading to Natty (and playing around some with Unity) I noticed that the top part of the application windows are often hidden/covered by the gnome panel (see attachments).
This is particularly annoying for the rdesktop session (second jpg) which I had set up so that it gave maximum desktop size to the rdp session while leaving the panel of top. If you look carefully you see that the "panel gap" is not at the bottom of the screen, while the panel itself covers the top of the rdp window.
It seems like, that the 'anchor point' for application windows used to be '+0+24' (so just below the panel) while now it's '+0+0' in the top left corner of the desktop. I suspect that while playing with unity I reset one of the compiz options which takes care of this. But I can't find it.
I want to make a list of music based on tags. My girlfriend wants to go through my list of music to choose what she wants for a trip we're taking. However, she's not able to be in front of my computer, so I need to make a list of music that she can go through. A flat html file would be fine, but I'm sure other formats would work too. And I need it to be based on metadata, not the filenames (I could easily print out a list of files, but metadata would be much better). I've tried some tag editors, such as kid3 and easytag, but none will let you export a list like this. I suppose I could just make a playlist then remove all other unneeded data.
View 1 Replies View RelatedInteresting problem: For the first time with Xubuntu 10.10 64bit, I am finding certain applications print corrupt. A varying amount of letters / numbers either get substituted/print a blank space/ print a box etc etc. This corruption seems to happen from a Pdf ( evince ) or Spreadheet ( Gnumeric ) Opening the same Pdf on another machine (ubuntu 10.10 32bit) prints perfectly. Opening the same .xls file on the original computer but using OOo Calc prints perfectly.
I guess I have ruled out any problems with the printer itself or the network JetDirect box. I have re-installed CUPS and evince and upgraded to the latest version of HPLIP but the problem appears unchanged.
I cannot print pdf files. I have tried using okular and xpdf. The documents display in the program, but print preview shows a blank page. The printer then sends out blank pages. I have tried printing on 2 different printers using usb cables. Using terminal to process the commands shows error:
Quote:
xxx@xxx:~$ xpdf

Converting to .ps also is blank.
My wife has a canon MP470 printer and running ubuntu 10.10. I am able to print black and white, but unable to print photos. I got it to work using another driver, but not the 'correct' one for this printer. I have searched a bit and don't see anything about ubuntu 10.10, just older versions. Or should I just network her to my printer....?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a couple of large-format printers (Epson R2400, HP 9650) which I only use infrequently. If they are not used very often, they dry out, the print heads get packed up, it's an expensive mess to deal with when times comes to run off some prints. The printers are physically connected to a Windows machine to which my Ubuntu computer is networked.It would be helpful if there was a utility that could initiate a test page print job on the machines, which could be scheduled to run once a week or so. I've had no luck finding such a thing for Windows
View 9 Replies View RelatedI initially had a problem accessing the CUPS interface (see my other post) and got that resolved by adding the user "cupsys". Now, everything "looks" ok, and when I print a test page, it shows it as completed (in CUPS). However, the page never prints.
The printer is a Canon MP600 (using the canonmp600en.ppd file to configure it). Here's the output of my conf file.

I'm running Kubuntu 10.10 with a Laserjet 5M printer. When I attempt to print a job from Firefox or from Okular, the job never gets onto the print queue. However, I can print test pages on the printer and also print from OpenOffice, so this seems to be app-dependent. I know the jobs aren't being queued because the job number doesn't increase (as shown by the jobs for the test pages). Both Firefox and Ocular give every indication that the print job has been processed correctly.
View 1 Replies View RelatedNot sure when CUPS started acting up. I have the latest 13.1 current software installed.The first page to print is always OK, but all succeeding pages are overwritten. The second page shows the first page on top of it, and the third shows the preceding pages on top of it - and so on. Has anyone else seen this problem?I guess the printer buffer is not getting flushed correctly. If my configurations were trashed in some way, I don't know where to look for a fix.

CUPS
print options set to color in both OS printer-options dialogue and CUPS browser dialogue. printer successfully prints color test page from CUPS browser dialogue. openoffice Writer print-preview shows document in color. openoffice Writer printer-dialogue options set to color.
Something command line that can parse and output an m3u file correctly. For example, not cdlabelgen.
All I want is a simple list of songs to print out to include with any audio cds I burn to use as a label in a slim case. No fancy labels with graphics and this or that. Brasero has a cover editor but the formatting is all screwed up and playing with text to get it to print correctly is a drag.
It would be cool if there were a script, too. Something that uses mp3cd. So a fella could fire-up his termianl-fu and run $ ./handiness.sh which would:
burn an audio disc from the playlist (which mp3cd does, of course)print out a nicely formatted list of the tracks sized correctly for a slim cd case cover.
That would be cool.
EDIT: You know, like this:
How can I combine multiple single page prints into a single print job? For example, using Firefox on Linux one can print a web page such that each sheet of paper has four pages printed upon it. I would like to combine several separate web pages so that for example, web-page-a, web-page-b and web-page-c (each less than one print page long) are printed on a single sheet of paper.
I would like to do this without having to use some form of image editor to combine and manage manually created temporary files.
Our one remaining problem seems to be printing. She has an HP OfficeJet 6500 USB printer. We have the computer conntected. Strangely, when I boot from the CD the printer shows up as installed even though I did nothing to install it. After having submitted a print job it shows the printer status as "idle" and the print queue is empty. I tried deleting that printer and re-installing. The installation went as one would expect. However the results are the same. I'm beginning to think that somehow the problem is related to the fact that we are operating from the live CD. getting this thing to print from the live CD.

But the issue I am dealing with is that it will print a full page and then print a blank page..then a full page..then a blank page. Actually they aren't completely blank..it shows half of "2 of 6" or whatever page it is on. Like it cuts that in half and prints the 2nd half of "2 of 6" onto a separate new page.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI convinced our librarian to let me put Ubuntu on our public computers a year ago. However everyone is really upset as printing is a constant problem. Soon Ubuntu will go and windows will be back if I can't solve this soon. I have tried lots of tweaks with no luck. I am not a computer or Linux professional but am pretty knowledgeable on tech although a bit weak with command line tasks.Karmic can print test pages but rarely pdf, office, or web pages. I constantly uninstall and reinstall the printer. We use a print server and several laptops share the printer. All run Ubuntu 9.10 and all are up to date. When I check the print queue all jobs are being held even though I have it set to no hold.Occasionally something will print.I also have an XP machine and an Apple but have about given up on ever getting them to print though the printer does get found by both of them.We are lucky that they let me put Ubuntu on these machines but unless this is solved soon Ubuntu will be history here. What I really need is to talk to someone while I am at the library and see is this can be fixed in a step by step manner.
I am there Thurs by 1pm eastern time USA daylight savings time. Though I could be there by noon if that would help. We open at 3pm and after that it is really hard to get exclusive use of the computers.If anyone can call me there on Thurs we can set up a time. Also I could call out by Magic Jack phone if it would save someone a long distance call. The Magic Jack is quite unreliable.We are getting Charter with long distance in 2 weeks but everyone is on my case to get this fixed before that. I am a volunteer. Also if another day would work I could maybe schedule that but I do volunteer other places at set hours. research,and web searches trying to solve this with no luck.reinstalling the printer on all the machines will maybe make it work for a few documents but not even that works much.
I accidentally submitted a print job twice. So I have this job sitting in the queue and haven't been able to figure out how to clear it. Tried system > administration > printing. Nothing there about how to clear the queue. I'm running 8.04.
