Ubuntu :: Edit Your X Configuration File And Restart
Oct 3, 2010Everything was running fine, then I installed ardour (doesn't work, but that not what I am here for), I rebooted and now everything is in low res, and looks horrible, I tried uninstalled and re-installing the driver and that did nothing. When I go into the control panel for the video card I get:

Oct 30, 2010I wonder if GNOME have this very cool shortcut feature where, no matter if it is a GNOME-bundled application or a third-party, you can open up the settings/edit/configuration for that particular app by pressing a keyboard combination?
Mac OS X has it in the form of Cmd+, and KDE also has it, although I dont remember what the default is for that. Does our beloved GNOME have it? It would be so rat if it does, or if it is possibly to enable.

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Can't Edit A File
May 7, 2010I am trying to edit a C++ source file, but gedit wont allow me to save changes to it. Gedit says:
Code:
A file with the same name already exists. Please use a different name.
Right. Of course the file exists, I am trying to edit an existing file.
About the same happens with kate... Kate opens the file in read-only mode.
However, if I edit the same file with nano, editing and saving works. So the problem shouldn't be with access rights. Also "ls" shows rw rights to the file.
What could be the problem? I can use nano, but I would need the syntax highlightind, and other features of a better editor.
And whether I use sudo or not has no effect. The same happens with or without sudo, and I am the owner of the file.
PS. luckily I am still dual booting with Hardy. I can always go back.
Oh and this is a new installation of ubuntu 10.04

May 31, 2010I am trying to edit limits.conf, changed file permissions:
sudo chmod limits.conf -rwxrwxrwx
But got this message:
"Could not save the file /etc/security/limits.conf. You are trying to save the file on a read-only disk. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again."
I followed these instructions:
"copy - paste this code into terminal
gedit $HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/Open as root
copy-paste this text into that file and push 'save'
for uri in $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_SELECTED_URIS; do
gnome-sudo "gnome-open $uri" &
done
now copy-paste this code into terminal
chmod +x $HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/Open as root
Now you can right click on the file you want to edit, select 'scripts' and say 'open as root' to let you modify it". [URL] the right click worked but the file didn't open.
