Software :: Launcher Script Works But Not With OpenOffice.org Apps?
Nov 2, 2010the scrip works fine and launches all sorts of files loading them into all sorts of apps with a small command and makes life and work easy very easy but not with OpenOffice applications. Is it the java platform?
Is there a good alternative to using this suite? It seems ok as an alternative to mcirosoft stuff but this is a big problem and makes working with it clunky just like mswindows.
I tested the script i use with all the other apps on my list but am dissapointed with this situation as I need something that can make graphic presentations and spreadsheets etc as well as some word prcessing and would rather be able to launch them quickly without the clunky mouse work.
I tried also to create some key bindings in gconf-editor but the same thing and exceptions coming up no matter what name i tried too bind the key combo to.

Jun 2, 2011It seems as if I've really done myself in this time. I recently upgraded to 11.04 from 10.10.trouble (not showing titlebars after I had trie to enable the "desktop cube" feature) so I decided the best plan of action was to get rid of Compiz. That turned out to be a mistake. Now I have no launcher or taskbar, and since I'm somewhat, well, inept at this so far I have no idea how to get my desktop back in working order.e managed to install compiz and emerald once again, but I can't get to the startup application editor to make it run automatically. Is there a way to get the default desktop environment handler to kick back in?

View 6 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: No Launcher After Upgrade ?
Jun 7, 2010So I saw there was a button on update manager that said new version available. I say what the heck, I'll upgrade. I am (was) using 9.10 netbook remix. After I did a few tweaks with synaptic etc to get the upgrade to go through, I am left with no launcher, and an error popping up saying cannot load applet GNOME-GoHome (or similar).
Did the automatic upgrade thing just install desktop 10.04 over my 9.10 NBR?
How the heck do I fix this? Should I burn an ISO of 10.04 netbook and attempt to upgrade from there?
I cannot lose the files that are on this partition, I have access to them currently and would like to keep them available.
Ubuntu :: Autostart Launcher Not Starting?
Jul 9, 2010ubuntu 9.10
I am working on a custom install preseed. Part of the process is creating a file: /home/bholt/.config/autostart/starter.sh
That way on first boot, this will execute and continue my custom process.
But it does not start. After boot if I go double click it it runs fine.
And one time it did auto start correctly. But I don't know what I did to break it.
All i can think is I changed starter.sh to in turn start something else rather than just run itself.

Aug 14, 2010I was wondering if anyone knew if there is an KDE-style app launcher for XFCE, preferably in the repos. I'm using KDE on my main system, and would love to have the same ALT+Space launcher on my laptop. Only without having to install (and run) all of the KDE libraries.
Closest I came was a couple of Mac-OS style docks.
