Ubuntu :: Shift Ctrl V No Longer Pastes In Terminal In 10.10
Oct 29, 2010I have noticed since installing ubuntu 10.10 a few weeks back, that pasting into terminals no longer works as expected. In earlier releases, shift+ctrl+v would paste the contents of the clipboard to the terminal. However, now shift+ctrl+v no longer does this. According to the keyboard shortcuts window, shift+ctrl+v is the shortcut for pasting. How can I find out if another program is using this keybinding and thus preventing me from pasting in a terminal? I've looked in System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts but there's nothing relevant in there. Is there a program that I can run to see how the system responds to me pressing shift+ctrl+v? Is there anything else that I can try to fix this problem. I've grown used to pressing shift+ctrl+v to paste now, and having to remember to press shift+Ins does slow me down

Ubuntu :: Ghostery Opens Its Own Tab. How To Stop It
Aug 26, 2010I've just allowed Ghostery to update to version 2.3. Now every time I open my browser (Firefox), a Ghostery tab opens after my homepage tab opens. How do/can I prevent this (the opening of a Ghostery tab in Firefox) from happening?
Edit: what is popping up is a "Ghostery Configuration Walkthrough", a setup wizard. I've looked on the Ghostery forum; some are seeking ways to get around this wizard; but, so far, no answers. A Google search didn't produce anything either. So, I guess I'll run the wizard and see what happens; even though there are no settings that I would change.

Ubuntu :: Firefox Only Opens If Using 'sudo'
Mar 26, 2011I have a win7 laptop and installed a dual-boot ubuntu 10.10. I'm using firefox & thunderbird, shared between windows and ubuntu (default profiles are on a fat32 disk that is shared between the two OSs). I can mount the fat32 disk as usual, but I can't get firefox OR thunderbird to start unless I start them from a terminal using 'sudo'. This is kinda strange. I used to do this all the time and never had a problem before.
I installed firefox, then did:
cd /etc/firefox
sudo firefox -P
in the profile manager, I set the profile file etc, but when I open firefox without doing 'sudo firefox', it hangs up and cannot find the profile. Why do I have to use 'sudo' to open firefox or thunderbird?
It works fine on my other laptop, but I've deleted & reinstalled ubuntu 3 times on this laptop and still have the same problem.

Mar 7, 2010When I open 'firefox' from the app panel at the top of the screen, it opens on the last web site visited.

Is there something in 'about:config' that would control this and what do I search for?

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Nautilus Always Opens An Extra Directory?
May 22, 2010When I open a directory from the Places menu on the Gnome panel, two Nautilus windows open up. One is the location I asked for. The other is always "/media/Data/ZZZMaint/PC/R stats pkg". I think it may be to do with the fact that some time earlier I had created a launcher in the Main Menu - called "R documentation"', with command "nautilus --no-desktop '/media/Data/ZZZMaint/PC/R stats pkg' " (the idea was to have a menu item that opened up a folder containing a set of documents I refer to). I have since disabled that menu item but the problem remains. I would very much like to stop Nautilus opening this extra window.I've tried looking through gconf-editor but haven't seen anything that looks relevant. The extra window doesn't get opened when I run Nautilus from other places, but it always happens when Nautilus is opened from the Places Menu, regardless of whether I'm opening a drive or a bookmark.

Jun 1, 2010I have seen when people click on an icon that is on the doc, it opens up a pop up window that has application you can click on. I have Cairo Dock. With it, I can add a shortcut menu and a Stack icon. From there,I can add applications, but they have a generic *.desktop icon. Is there any way to get the same Mac effect from Cairo Dock, or maybe even a shortcut to the applications folder in Ubuntu?By the way, can someone tell me the default path to the applications folder?"
