Ubuntu :: Lost All Control Of Windows?
Aug 21, 2011Suddenly, my windows have no borders, and I have little control of them -- no moving, minimizing, or maximizing. I can't access these functions because there is no bar at the top, but they also don't respond to pressing the Alt key. My mouse cursor is the generic "X" that XWindows starts with.
The obvious solution is to change my settings, but I can't: when I try to open window manager settings, the disk spins a little but nothing shows up.
Another solution would be to try a different window manager, but this fails on a different problem that I have been having for some time. If I log out and then click on my user name to log back in, nothing happens -- I do not get a password box, just the same user selector that I started with. I use Xfce and I don't know how to switch.

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: 10.04 Upgrade - Missing Windows Control Buttons?
May 2, 2010After upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 I lost my windows control buttons (minimize, maximize, close)
Code:
metacity --replace
Command works to restore my buttons but I've got a couple problems
1. I have to leave this terminal open permanently. If I try to close it (and "kill" the process) not only do I lose my windows controls but my keyboard stops working entirely.
2. Have to put this in every time I log back in.
Is there a better solution for restoring my windows control buttons (i.e., one that doesn't require me to open a terminal every time I log in?)

However neither computer can see the other using VNC.

Jan 15, 2010I started using DWM for my Window Manager really just for the hell of simplicity (I'm an obsessive minimalist) anyways... I can use seamonkey but I do like Firefox more but for some reason it does not load. If from a terminal I type firefox is just simply doesn't load, brings up no errors or anything.
Also, is there a way to control which windows take up what space???

I am using xwininfo to get information about the window. It gives window id, and some additional stuff. This id should be enough to do any operation with the window.

Jan 19, 2011I don't know how this happened, but my keyboard copy and paste functions have stopped working. Oddly enough, I discovered that I can only copy and paste by using the third mouse button. Pressing down on the scroll wheel after highlighting text copies the text, pressing it again pastes it Ican still use the Edit-copy and Edit-paste menu functions.
I'm sure it has something to do with all the tinkering I have been doing with my desktop. I have been experimenting with CompizConfig and Cairo dock, changing my themes and things of this nature.

But I have no tools to control the fan speed from 'acpi'. in particular '/proc/acpi/fan' is an empty directory.

Debian :: Sound Not Card Configured - Error 'Volume Control Did Not Find Any Elements And/or Devices To Control" - Driver
Feb 8, 2011Laptop is Dell Latitude C600/C500 with Pentium III 850Mhz, 256Kb L2 Cache, 256MB RAM, ATI M3 video card, HD 20005 MB and sound card is EES Maestro 3i. After trying to do something with Windows 2000 which was installed on the machine, I decided to put Linux without keeping windows on the machine. First I try with Xubuntu (latest version) which was working but slowly, then I found that Debian could work fine on that machine. I have installed latest version 5.08 and was surprised how goodly old machine can work. I solved problems with screen resolution (change from 800x600 to 1024x768) but I couldn't find solution how to fix problem with sound.
Actually I don't have sound on the machine. I looked for a linux driver for that sound card and Dell is only providing windows drivers. Then I found that I can solve the problem with ALSA drivers but I couldn't find the easy way (or any way at all) to install drivers and to get back the sound. When I click on 'Volume Control' (top right corner of the screen) I get the message: 'Volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured.'
OpenSUSE Hardware :: Energy-Control Out Of Control?

View 3 Replies View RelatedSlackware :: Thinkpad T500 Fan Control - Way To Control ?
Jun 2, 2010I have had my thinkpad for just a few short months and, it must be that we are heading into summer, but I am starting to finally run into some overheating issues especially when compiling software for awhile, i.e. kernel.
My question would be, "Is it best to let the built in thermal management take care of the issue, and I just need to know what to tweak, or to put on a script solution such as the tp-fancontrol script?
The computer takes about 5-10 minutes to overheat and the message I get in /var/log/messages is "logger: ACPI group thermal_zone / action THM1 is not defined" then it shuts down.
So, any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.
I am running slackware-current x86_64 on a Lenovo Thinkpad T500.

View 3 Replies View RelatedServer :: Samba And Other Free Software Tools Can "control" A Number Of Windows Workstations
Jul 19, 2010I want to have a Linux server "control" a number of Windows workstations. The workstations are a mixture of XP Pro, 7 Pro, and 7 Home Premium (the latter won't join a domain so can't have all the features I want mind). I want:
Centralised username and password database. Easy to add users. Roaming user profiles, so users can switch computers and take their settings with them. If possible, settings for selected programs shared between XP and 7. (They need separate profiles.) My Documents on a network file server. I'm interested in having transparent versioning on this - perhaps by using a copy-on-write filesystem, perhaps just by using a version control app on the server and having cron make a commit every night.
Able to manage software installation and removal centrally. (This I already do, using WPKG). Able to manage configuration centrally. Basically pretty much anything the user could change, I want to be able to force a setting of. I'm thinking desktop wallpaper locking, forcing use of a web proxy, setting printers, restricting use of USB drives, etc. Printer accounting.
Give the clients resolvable names (probably DNS, maybe WINS). This is mainly to help if I need to remote into a client desktop. I don't know to what extent this can be done with Samba. I know it doesn't have all the features of Windows servers, but I know next to nothing about Windows servers. So, can what I want be done? How I'm prepared to read docs for and test things out, but I don't want to be looking for tutorials on something not possible!
Fedora :: Remote Control Windows 7 From Fedora?
Oct 24, 2010There is no data of a particularly sensitive nature on her PC, and it
would not be a problem if it involved a telephone call in advance on each
occasion, to arrange for her to start the server or whatever.
It's not particularly important whether or not she could view the local
screen while I am controlling the PC.
What is important is performance of screen updates - her connection
(although broadband) can be a bit slow at times.
Can anyone recommend a straightforward and reliable method to do this? I
am quite happy digging through documentation.
I have Googled, and there seem to be many alternative approaches.
Is VNC the way to go (and if so, which one)? Or something else?
Fedora :: Volume Control Keys On Keyboard Don't Control Volume Anymore
Oct 29, 2009Volume up, volume down and mute keys on the keyboard don't control the volume any longer.They worked before. Hitting the keys brings up a progress bar widget with the volume level unchangeable, set at 0% (which is not accurate at all).It looks like the key mappings or key bindings are working, but there is a disconnect with actual functionality. The volume cannot be changed or muted anymore from the keyboard.
This worked just fine in KDE on Fedora 11 before upgrading KDE components yesterday with Yumex. I am now using KDE 4.3.2 I don't think that it's a coincidence that it stopped working after doing an update.
I updated the kernel and nVidia drivers too, but this problem exists when I went back and tested with the previous kernel, so I don't suspect the kernel upgrade. No info in Xorg.conf about the keyboard. Is there a setting that I am missing?
Sound works just fine. I can listen to whatever source I like. This is not a problem with the sound drivers as far as I can tell.I just want to be able to control the volume with the keys on my Logitech Illuminated Keyboard, model Y-UY95. Is anyone else experiencing this?I can adjust the volume with Kmix 3.5 or GNOME Volume Control V2.1

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Using Brightness Control In 10.04?
Jun 5, 2010I am currently using Windows 7 but I would really like to install the new Ubuntu, what bothers me is that I tried using Ubuntu 9.04 few months ago and I had troubles changing the brightness (Toshiba L40). I have searched in the forum and it appears that there are quite some people with the same problems, of course fixes are offered but as at least some basic kernel knowledge is required I am in no position to follows the proposed steps. Since this is one of the determining factors whether to stay with Windows or go to Ubuntu I was wondering whether this problem is fixed in 10.04 or not?
P.S. I haven't tried messing with the kernel because I have only one laptop and I am afraid to lose the information on it.
