Ubuntu :: Tilda Is Lost / Keybinding Not Working
Jul 21, 2011
I recently (re)installed Tilda, but I can no longer activate it via the keybinding I set, nor the default. Actually, I'm not entirely sure its running right now, though it should be.My questions: How do I get Tilda back?I am experimenting with a very spartan system, and I was also wondering how I can invoke common GUI apps from the terminal screen (not running within X) such as xfce settings, control panels, Abiword, Firefox, etc... That is, call them from the pure (non-graphical) terminal and have them come up on the X display next door.

under openbox session, tilda's transparency works. Under kde, with kwin, tilda it is also transparent, but if I use openbox as windowmanager in kde4, there is no transparency for tilda. Somebody knows why? (by tilda, I mean the quake like, drop down terminal )

I just brought myself a ASRock 330ht with blu-ray and remote. I've installed Ubuntu and all relevant drivers fine (including lirc). I've got xbmc on startup and the remote works brilliantly wiith that.
My problem is, I'd like to use my keyboard/mouse as little as possible (as I mainly use it from my bed) so would like to bind certain buttons to the ir remote (such as firefox, or a link to iplayer etc). I've taken a look at the lircd.cfg and it's basically empty, except for a pointer to another cfg that I can't get access to even as root (although I didn't try too hard).
Is there a tutorial or program that I can use to configure my own lircd.cfg? If I was too, would it take preference over my xbmc settings and stop working for that?

I was just wondering if this was possible without using guake or yakuake or the like: I have a shortcut (alt+shift+c) to open a gnome-terminal window. (done via compiz keyboard commands)However, what if I wanted it to fokus a gnome-terminal (specific?) if one(it) exists and only start a new terminal, if it isn't already running? I looked up and down the compiz settings, not seeing anything to help me focus a specific window.

I have been using Tilda for a while to execute a quick command and I love it. However I wanted to customize it a little so it looks nicer. I figured out you needed to enter tilda -C and then start configuring.
I did this and changed a couple settings such as size and colors and whatnot. However when I closed out and tried it nothing happened. Confused, I opened it up again and after poking around I saw that the top said Tilda 2 settings. Poking around more I found the keyboard shortcut was for f2 when I usually use f1 for tilda. So I exit out and hit f2. Another tilda came up(one already running) with all the settings I had configured.
Now this wouldn't be too much of a problem but I noticed that the second tilda will not show up unless I open the config screen first. After I do this then I can open both of them up with f1 and f2. It would be extremely inconvenient to have to do this everytime I bootup.

The recent yum update (at 17/4/2010 based on my /var/log/yum.log) has broken Tilda from regaining the input focus after application switching. Only "F12" (the key binding I used to popup/hide Tilda) still works. But now after the losing the initial application input focus, it does not able to regaining it back.

is it possible (and how) to create keyboard shortcut/binding that would give window-focus back to Tilda terminal? Currently, it is necessary to LMB-click inside Tilda (or at least drag mouse-cursor over Tilda) to resume typing.

I want to be able to use Ctrl+R to have reverse-i search. Also if I press Shift+Up Arrow after typing the first few characters of a recently executed command then the shell should complete the command by finding the most recent commmand having the same first few characters.

I just restarted my computer, and now I have no sound whatsoever. I did not download, or install anything. The only thing I did was adding a user.

So I was messing around with LVM trying to turn 3 ~300GB drives into one LVM under 1TB. I scrapped the idea after not being able to combine hdc and hdd into a VG called doctor/frankenstein while using hde as swap space to move the single ext3 primaries onto the VG. I am now battling to recover the contents of hdc back!

I think I've lost my MBR upgrading from ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10. During the upgrade it gave me a message saying which partitions did I want the grub details to go on, saying if I was unsure to select all of them. After reboot I just end up in a grub recovery console.The system was a dual boot with windows vista.how I can get both my operating systems to work?
Boot Info Script 0.55 dated February 15th, 2010 ============================= Boot Info Summary: ============================== => Grub 2 is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks on the same drive in partition #256 for /boot/grub. sda1: __________________________________________________ _______________________ File system: ntfs Boot

I finally upgraded my desktop from 9.10 to 10.04. I do not feel that this was a step forward; a lot of little things just don't work. For example, when shutting down with 9.10, it automatically shuts down in 60 seconds. With 10.04, it waits *forever* for a 2nd mouse click.
The USB drive - there used to be an option to un-mount it without removing it. That's gone now, and I'm guessing that I will find more of these as the days go on. And all the colors have been removed from the panel applets. Not really a functionality issue, but it is a negative to the user experience.
So my question is: How can I restore these features? Is there a configuration somewhere I can edit?

I killed a Process from the System Monitor, it was something related to notifications. From that time, I'm not getting any notification icons on the top-bar. It doesn't shows me any application icons. like VLC, XCHAT or even the Active Connection icon. Except that, everything is working as like a fresh install. I'd restarted my system later but it's still the same. I want to restore the system.

I have 2 machines with ubuntu (now 9.10) and 2 with XP. After upgrading the ubuntu machines to 9.10 my wired LAN does not let me connect between the linux and MS machines. They did before the upgrade. Where and what should I check to see why the ubuntu machines cannot connect to each other or to the XP machines?I have looked at the network connections and it shows 'auto eth0', last used 'never'. I select the auto eth0 and click on the edit tab and the wired tab shows a MAC address and MTU is set to automatic. The 802.1x Security tab shows it not checked and grayed out. The ipv4 settings tab shows 'automatic'. The ipv6 settings tab shows 'ignore'.
When I click on the Places/Network, the Windows Network icon comes up. When I click on it, I get the MSHOME icon and the WORKGROUP icon. When I click on either of them I get message saying "Opening MSHOME" and then the message 'unable to mount, failed to retrieve share list from server'. The same thing happens when I click the WORKGROUP icon.

I'm just coming back to Ubuntu after last seeing a GNOME desktop almost a year ago now. Just installed the new 10.04 version on my EEE 1000h with little to no problems. However, since then I've been kinda lost. Is it just me, or has Ubuntu been changed substantially over the last two distributions?
1) How do I change the netbook remix desktop mode? I like the left menu design, however I like the traditional desktop even more. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the desktop mode switcher anywhere.
2) Where is the grub menu.lst found? Looked in the /boot/grub/ folder and it doesn't seem to be there anymore.
3) Where's my multi touch? Do I have to install a package or configure a setting somewhere? With Jaunty it was a simple install and play. This time it doesn't seem that way at all.

I installed Kubuntu on my Toshiba A135 with no problems at all...everything works: sound, wifi, LAN, etc...BUT whenever I reboot/restart the computer my Display and Audio settings revert back to default, and it doesn't happen when I log out, just when I restart/shutdown the computer. I have an Intel 945GM chipset and I have set my external Acer 23" monitor as the default and only monitor with a resolution of 1920x1080@60Hz using KDE's System Settings...And I chose to disable the laptop's internal monitor...but whenever I restart, the display returns to a 1024x800 cloned resolution (the default one)...which by the way looks hideous on a 23" monitor. And also the sound mixer goes back to the default levels.
So, can anyone help me out? I've been using Ubuntu for over 3 years and I've never had any problems like this one. I have just fell in love with Kubuntu, it looks and runs great, but this problem/bug is keeping me from being comfortable with it... I've been reading some things about XRandr and some commands and stuff and nothing have worked until now. I wonder, is it a common bug in Kubuntu or maybe an erroneous setting in the session manager....?

I was configuring my evolution mail client a few days ago, typing in pop3 settings etc but my inbox remained empty, so i removed evolution from my applications and reinstalled it, for one reason or another my mail now loads up into my inbox, unfortunately the notifier (the envelope icon at the top right) now doesnt have evolution on it at all, only the chat program which i dont use. ideally this notifier would 'notify' me when mail arrives but at the moment this does not happen.
