View 3 Replies View RelatedThe application is Conky running under Fedora 12 Alpha. This application is set to start upon logging in to the desktop and it does just that. It appears for a second or two and then disappears from view. Although I don't see it, top tells me it is in fact running. As a result of this unexpected behavior I kill the process and restart the application using the ALT/F2 run application tool. When I do this Conky appears on the desktop and stays in view.

Please refer to "Beautiful Fonts in 12.1" The patches for freetype, cairo and libXft are all come from the thread above, with a little modification so libXft can be patched successfully.

The problem for me now is that I had tried almost all of those fonts in directory /usr/share/consolefont/, but I could not find a suitable one, none of them are beautiful. So, I hope one can tell me how to get the fonts and how to set the font I like to be lasting.

url
or like conky colors where you can put in either side, or other complex examples that use folders with images..that at least i need one day to study all the variables it has...
What i want is something simple, in my black background i dont want images and effects, only white simple text.
My problem is: i want for instance my specs above, my log info in the middle, my music info bellow (above my clock) and in conky config i'm hitting my head in the wall....
For instance if i use my facebook script to appear in the midle how the hell can i put my music info bellow without ruined the facebook in the midle...do i need 2 conky configs?
I am using Compiz, and am trying to use Animations to make only Gloobus Preview (Window name= gloobus-preview) open with one of three animations. I have selected Horizontal Folds, Sidekick, and Zoom in Random Effects, made a new item for Open, set its duration to 200, set it to Random, and have tried everything possible to try and get only Gloobus Preview to have an animation, but nothing works. I can get everything except Gloobus Preview to have an animation, but if I do the opposite, then nothing works. If I set it to "any", then Gloobus Preview animates, but so does everything else. I would like for nothing to have an open animation except for Gloobus Preview. How can I do this in Compiz's Animations?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop, and am amazed how well everything is working, even on my dual-monitor setup! But, I also have a problem with said setup. I downloaded and installed the XBMC media center, but whenever I open up the application, it displays across both monitors. Since my two monitors are of different sizes and at different heights, it looks really bad. Is there a way to always force it to load on just one monitor?

I'm running 10.10 64 bit. I have a vpn service and I'd like to configure my bittorrent client to use only the vpn link (and NOT continue through my plain-old ISP service if the vpn drops). I imagine there are a few possible approaches to this:
1.have a script that checks if ppp0 is up an terminates the bt client if not
2.configure the bt client to use only ppp0 (though I tried this with qtorrent and it switches over to eth0 if vpn drops...)
I'm a beginner to Ubuntu so this is probably an easy question, but: I installed a windows application using Wine and that worked, it launched the application just fine. But now after restarting the computer I can't see how to run that application again. It would be nice to make a desktop icon for it.
