Ubuntu :: URL Bar/Location Bar - Apparently Chooses The Biggest Width
Feb 28, 2010
I merged my toolbars into one toolbar. This results in having my bookmarks toolbar next to my URL bar.
The problems is that the URL bar apparently chooses the biggest width available with priority over the bookmarks bar, being merged into simply an arrow, which I have to click in order to see my bookmarks.
I would like to give my URL bar a fixed width so that I can see my bookmarks toolbar or to leave the URL bar with a flexible width as long as it doesnt have priority over the bookmarks bar.

A couple of days I started using latex and have still one question about the table width. My table is too wide for a page. How can I adjust it so that it fits on the full width of a page? Can I use a command or do I have to specify each column widths by hand?
My table looks like this;
I did try several commands likeextwidth, esizebox, setlength but didn't found the solution yet.

I use ioctl to get the cosole window size (the SSH window).
I use the following code:
When I debug on linux pc, it gives me the correct window width. But after I try it on router (this is my enventual place where my code shall run), ioctl always give me 0 width, that is, numberOfColumnsOfTerminalWindow == 0. but the returnValue is 0 which means that the function call succeeds.

GDM2 is doing something very weird on my Ubuntu Lucid install. It occasionally decides randomly to put the toolbar (with keyboard layouts, the time and date, shutdown options, and so forth) at the top of the screen when it appears. I think it's always supposed to be at the bottom of the screen. Why is this happening?

We installed Debain 6.0 (Squeeze) on a Seagate ST2000DL003 (2 TB SATA HDD) and the installer choose GPT for us. Only came to light when we tried to run fdisk and got "WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sda'! The util fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted". parted was not installed by default (!). Investigating further we found dd cannot be used to back up and restore GPT; for that you need gptfdisk (a.k.a. gdisk) which is still in beta and does not have a 64-bit .deb.
Clearly GPT is the future but I am not convinced it is mature yet (Bug#599437) and the online knowledgebase is not yet extensive. Taking all this into account, I am considering changing to a traditional MBR and included partition table. [Note on terminology: when using a GPT, the MBR is considered distinct from the partition table; when using a legacy partition table, the partition table is commonly considered part of the MBR]
Would this be wise? If the good people at Debian have programmed the installer to use GPT for this HDD, despite GPT's youth, they must have had their reasons. The most informative Debian documentation found is the Debian GNU/Linux Installation Guide, 6.3.3. Partitioning and Mount Point Selection which says "... Defaults may vary as well. The type of partition table used by default can for example be different for large capacity hard disks than for smaller hard disks. Some options can only be changed when installing at medium or low debconf priority; at higher priorities sensible defaults will be used".

I seem to be running low on disk space on my linux server. 'df' shows about 82% usage on a stock CentOS install with sendmail. I routinely delete old email directories, but for some reason, I stay pretty high in disk usage. Is there a fancy little bash script or something I could run that would find the biggest files and I could go get rid of them?

I connect to the WPA2-secured wifi of a university. They use 802.11b/g on the 2.4 GHz band and 802.11a/n on the 5.2 GHz band. Both have the same SSID xyz (for roaming).Now, when I connect to the SSID xyz, ubuntu 11.04 (natty) chooses the Access Point with the highest Strength. However, this is a 802.11g Access Point which is very slow because of high usage and there is no 802.11n available. Slow pings make it unusable.network-manager is just too stupid to connect to the much faster 5GHz 802.11n AP.Windows 7 autmatically connects to the 5GHz 802.11n Adapter with 300Mbit/s. That's what I would expect from ubuntu as well. I think Mac OS X also performs great in such situations.
The only workaround for me is to enter the BSSID (Mac-Address) of the 5 GHz AP directly in network-manager. That works and I have 802.11n with up to 300 Mbit/s. However, this is not the perfect solution, because now I can't use roaming any more (we have lots of APs here!).Do you have any Ideas to prefer 5 GHz band over 2,4 GHz band? I also tried the "band" gconf option as well as kernel module options of module iwlagn with no success.

I'm working with a program that uses Open Motif to create all of the widgets, including the Open File dialog box (obviously). However, Open Motif being kinda old-timey, 80's vintage, and for the most part now an abandoned project, it is quite clunky. So, actually what I need to do is to open some files located on my work server. I have already successfully connected to the relevant server directories with Samba, and with programs built with GTK+ (such as GIMP) I can open files across the network because I have created a bookmark in Nautilus, and those bookmarks appear in the Open File dialog box created by GTK+. Now, Open Motif is different: it doesn't see network locations, orNautilus shortcuts. When I type "smb://serveripyadayada" in the search folder, it really doesn't like it and complains. So, what do I do? Can I get somehow Open Motif to open a network location? Or can I do a run-around and place a shortcut in the file system that points to the network location?

I have been testing ubuntu 10.10 maverick, it has some nice features. Anyway I am missing the possibility of writing manually the folder you want to go on nautilus using the Location bar. It was used to have some kind of icon which you can click and it switched between graphich breadcrumbs or the location of the folder and you could changed it manually, you know what I mean?

I have the following set up in my crontab:
Code:
# crontab -l
# m h dom mon dow command
*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/perl/managed_arp_data.pl >> /var/log/arpdb.log
*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/perl/infoblox_fixed_sync.pl >> /var/log/crossref.log

0 * * * * /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/perl/infoblox_excl_sync.pl >> /var/log/excl_sync.log
None of these jobs is apparently running, however they did run on the 31st (yesterday), but not on the 30th or any other day during the last 10 days that I have logs for. I think I've set cron to run at log level 1, but I don't know where that log goes, I don't see anything like /var/log/cron
So, couple questions:
* If I do something like "sudo -s" to get a root prompt and then do a "crontab -e", which user does that crontab get executed as?
* Where should I look for cron logs?
* Anyone know why a job would run on the 31st, but not any other day?

I just ran Computer Janitor on my computer and I think it broke Synaptic. The program was cleaning up some files, but then it froze halfway through and I had to force it to quit. Since then, I can't open Synaptic package manager, the Ubuntu Software Center, nor Computer Janitor itself. When I do they either freeze and I have to force them to quite or they just don't show up on the screen, but they're stuck running in the background because System Monitor reports the processor is running at 100% and so I have to go in manually and kill the bad processes running in the background. Restarting doesn't change anything.Running Lucid Lynx on a HP dc7100, P4 3.2 Ghz, 2gb RAM.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 up-to-date in my laptop HP Pavilion dv4-1290br.My sound seems to randomly get muted, after a few hours the laptop is on. I've checked the volumes, I've compiled and installed the very latest ALSA driver, tested it trying to play music and changing the volume in hardware and software. Nothing works. The sound simply gets muted until I reboot.

I installed Ubuntu 5 days ago....looked great....seemed to offer everything I want. Then I clicked on the firefox icon and it brought up Google ...Great!....Then I said ..this is easy..I'll have a look at my share-trading dynamic platform. Searched for Commsec and clicked 'launch Webiress'...and then it hiccupped! I got a message saying I needed Java "Now downloading".....Okay I've had this happen in windows...no problemo.. Then I tried to follow the instructions contained on the download page from Java....thats what started my five days (30 hours now and counting) of misery.
Finally on one of the hundreds of Ubuntu pages I've read I found that there is a bug in java....that prevents it from working with the Firefox that Ubuntu provides. So I cleverly removed firefox ....and went to Mozilla and downloaded a new version 3.6 of Firefox.....followed the instructions at Sourceforge.net (and other places I can't remember). Now I have Firefox in a folder in 'Documents' with libjavaplugin_oji.so linked to ///java/jre.6.0_21/plugin/i386/ns7... But when I try to fire up Webiress I still get the messsage "Java not installed ...now downloading".

I'm experiencing an occasional frustration using Evolution with my work email which is on an MS Exchange 2003 server.Everything usually works well enough, but from time to time I'll try to retrieve a message,Is there a setting I've missed in Evolution that might take care of this, or some other workaround?Let me re-emphasize that the server is a 2003 Exchange server (and a source of endless frustration for a non-windows user). It's not a 2007 or 2010 Exchange server, which is what most companies use these days.

I have an issue with cfservd, from the cfengine package not listening on both ipv4 and ipv6. Tracing through the source indicated that the issue was with the getaddrinfo() call. I have used the example code on the man page and can confirm that it doesn't work as expected on either Fedora 12, Fedora 10 or CentOS 5.3
The servers I am testing on have both ipv4 and ipv6 enabled and working. i.e. I can ssh to them using either -4 or -6 and netstat -a shows 0.0.0.0:22 and :::22
Running the example code on the Fedora servers results in only a single IPv4 address structure being returned by the getaddrinfo call and hence only listening on the one protocol. Strangely, on the CentOS server only the IPv6 address structure is returned.
I need both IPv4 and IPv6 for cfengine but am at a complete loss as to how to get it to work when the issue appears to be something fundamentally wrong at the OS level.

I have done some searching around and now know that the 64 bit version of Wine is useless. I tried to install the 32 bit version and apparently succeeded. The problem is that when I open Wine File the .wine-x86_64 folder reappears. I don't even know where the 32 bit folder is.
I have tried
Code:
yum erase *wine*
but it does not seem to work. However this does.

I'm using Slackware 13.1 on a new laptop (MSI 1481). Everything has worked great except when I put a DVD in the drive (like the Slackware DVD) the drive spools up and down constantly - you know, how it goes from slow speed to fast speed. I figured it was hal polling it every 2 seconds and that for some reason it was causing it to actually kick in and read the DVD, but disabling that didn't help. I've also tried not starting X or xfce (going to runlevel 3) but that didn't make any difference - as soon as I put the dvd in, it starts up.
It's not just the Slackware dvd either, it's any DVD. Movie DVDs however don't seem to spool up to higher speeds but you can still hear the drive running constantly, so there is some different. I'm not mounting the drive or anything, just close the tray and listen to the rhythmic annoyance of the drive at full speed, then not, then full speed, then not.
I don't see any other suspect processes with top or ps either. Anyone have any idea why this would be if it's not the polling doing it? I'm starting to think a kernel or hardware thing. The drive I have is reported by cdrecord -scanbus as "Optiarc DVD RW AD-7580S FX20".
I'm at a loss. I'm thinking next I'll have to install another distro to at least rule that out, but with so many variables (packages installed, kernel version, driver versions) I don't know that this approach would tell me much.

I have a user that is reporting the following error on a bounced message:
Quote:
smtp;554 5.6.1 Body type not supported by Remote Host
He is forwarding emails from his exchange server to a recipient in Germany relaying through our smtp server using Surgemail as the MTA.
He called a senior tech specialist at Microsoft to get help thinking the problem was on his end (exchange server). According to this "specialist", he said the problem was that our smtp server was not advertising 8BitMIME in its 250 statement. I tested this myself by log in on to the smtp server and doing typing the following:
Code:
EHLO localhost
250-smtp.<mycompanyname>.com. Hello localhost (127.0.0.1)
250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN
250-DSN
[Code]....
As you can see, 250-8BITMIME is not listed here. From the bit of research I made, I found that most MTAs send this by default. Is it possible that the characters from the German language are causing this problem?
NOTE: This problem did not exist or was never reported until now. No one has made any changes on any settings on the server.

I've recently upgraded my Lenovo Sl500 laptop from windows vista to windows 7, both 32bit.
Prior to this i had dual boot between CentOs 5.6 and windows vista.
After i have upgraded to windows 7, the dualboot is apparently gone, I am no longer able to boot in linux.
My question is now, how can i fix this, or create a new dual boot?
Im currently left with two partitions, one with Windows 7 installed, and one with CentOs 5.6 installed, but as said, I am unable to acces my linux.

I've followed the instructions that I can find as well as I can, but it seems I've hit a relatively unusual condition. Here's the preliminary stuff:
lspci output:
Code:

Subsystem: Apple Computer Inc. Device 008c
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
Memory at 97300000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]

Currently, the interface seems to be set up correctly in the YaST network settings thing, labeled as wlan0, and it doesn't have the 'Not Connected' indicator after it.
EDIT: iwconfig doesn't list wlan0; it just lists eth0 and lo0, saying neither have a wireless extension

This seems to be a variant of a problem many people have had, but after several hours trawling through various forums, I haven't seen a reliable match for my situation.In brief:Adding a third boot partition (of Ubuntu) to my existing dual boot of OSX 10.6 and Windows 7 seems to have crippled the Windows boot from working, because Grub apparently takes over the process. Yet Grub does *not* appear to be on the Windows partition.
More verbose:I have an older MacBook Pro (3.1, running Snow Leopard) that I recently refitted with a new 240GB SSD HD. With the extra space (it was previously only 120GB) I decided to add a dual boot with Windows 7 using bootcamp. This all went swimmingly well.Encouraged, I decided to follow this Lifehacker article's suggestion and triple-boot the machine with Ubuntu (I'd never used Linux before):So I now have the nice rEFIt boot partition selection screen, and, indeed, I'm up and running in Ubuntu, and enjoying it.
Only one problem: I can't get into Windows any more. If I try to go in through rEFIt *or* by holding down OPT at startup and selecting the windows partition directly, the result is the same: I get thrown into Grub's selector, and selecting the Windows partition from there leads to an error message and a dead end.Having read through numerous postings, I get the impression that Grub is doing something or living somewhere that it ought not to be, but in most cases I've seen, people had accidentally installed Grub onto the Windows partition (or indeed onto EVERY partition). So far as I can tell, this isn't the case with me. Here's my boot summary:
