I'm using Emerald theme Manager and am very happy with the way it's working, except that for some reason I can't find out how to get my window controls (min/max/close) to got back to the top left where 10.4 has it by default.
p.s how do I get screen shots like in windows ctrl-printscreen?
anyone has a clue why 'ctrl+a, k' nor 'ctrl+a, :kill' doesn't work for killing one of screen windows? Other screen's commands invoked with 'ctrl+a'seem to work.

There is no workaround for it as I see by now, so I am trying to get it work this way:I want to map Ctrl+W in Hebrew layout(which is actually a Ctrl+') to be a Ctrl+w. Here is what I got from xmodmap:Code:$ xmodmap -pke | grep 25keycode 25 = w W Cyrillic_tse Cyrillic_TSE apostrophe WAs you can see, there are pairs for each layout, each pair tells what happens without and with the Shift key pressed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having some problems with taking screenshots in Lucid while desktop effects are enabled. If I disable desktop effects, the screenshot works fine, but if they are enabled, no matter what windows are open, it only ever shows my wallpaper and the mouse pointer, no panels, icons, windows.
I am using the older 190.42 nvidia drivers if that makes a difference.
I was trying to do a research about capturing the screen in Ubuntu Lucid where we can exclude the mouse pointer but to my dismay

I have Ubuntu 10.10 Alpha 2 on an Acer Aspire One AOA110-1545.
I recently installed Maverick 64-bit on a new HP 8740w (NVidia Quadro FX 2800M video). When I try to open a console using CTRL-ALT-F1, I get a blank screen (no cursor). The console is running (I can log-in blind), but no video. I have tried several solutions (modifying the GRUB video mode, and the solution in this thread. Nothing changed. I am using NVidia driver v173. WHen I revert to "current" I get a console login, but gdm won't start.
Any suggestions to get both gdm and console at the same time? I'm trying to configure the system so I can use multi-monitor in a docking station, so I'd like to know I can get to a visible console before I try that. I should mention that I was able to see the console just after installing 10.10, but in the days since, something (update?) changed to cause it to go blank. I had to make a few changes to get ACPI to behave on this system. I'm not sure when the console went dark.
When I press Ctrl-Alt-F1-F6 the tty is a blank screen. I can type but it doesn't ask for a login or anything.

I can not copy/paste ctrl+C or ctrl+p from one folder to another with the mouse. i was trying to move an item to another folder.

With my first kernel, that comes with Fedora 10 x86_64 installation DVD, I can use ctrl + alt + f2 from desktop, switch to terminal, and log in to any user.
The problem is:
Eventhough the login screen appears as usual with kernels 2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10.x86_64 and 2.6.27.24-170.2.68.fc10.x86_64, I can not login. When I enter username and password, the screen refreshes itself to its initial state, i.e., like when i hit ctrl + alt + f2 from desktop. I also tried ctrl + alt + f3, f4, f5 etc nothing changes. Also, I want to remind you that I can login from desktop terminal successfully.
i had slackware 13.0 on my dell vostro 1320 and it was all good, but since the upgrade to 13.1 i cannot change the screen brightness with ctrl+up and ctrl+down keys..i'm not even sure how to start with this problem. from what i understand these keys 'call' a bios function...? so that would mean that some kernel module is not being loaded?or has the desktop environment lost the key mappings and that is causing my trouble?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just installed Ubuntu 10.10 x64 and already am really annoyed by Firefox, which freezes my mouse after changing a tab (with ctrl+tab, alt+#) or closing it (ctrl+w). After about one second, i can continue working as usual. Changing Tabs by just clicking on one does not freeze anything...Maybe some of you would think now if I am crazy because of complaining about such a little thing, but it is really annoying if you are used to work fluently with ff.Edit:I today noticed, that not only shortcuts in firefox, but all Hotkeys freeze my mouse for a second. For examle ctrl+c, ctrl+v, super+e or anything else.Do you have any Idea what causes this behaviour? Reinstalling ubuntu didn't change anything

I know how to take a screenshot on my Ubuntu, but I want to take many screenshots within a limited time (taking screenshots of a single execution of a program which I can not pause). Is there a program that takes the "PrtScr" keyboard key in charge and just stores every screenshot without asking? The standard Ubuntu tool pops up a dialog to ask where I want to save the file, I would like a tool that doesn't ask and just saves on the Desktop or wherever as 00001.png 00002.png etc.

So far I tried to modify the /etc/defaults/grub file to uncomment the grub resolution and the grub_terminal to no avail. Now at least it seams to waste some less time to load the grub (it took something like 15 sec before) but it lost the previous green/torquoise background and now it's white char on black background.
On a side note pressing C on the grub to reach the grub console gave me some answer I don't know how to deal with... I was trying to use vbeinfo but it didn't found the command and so I tried the insmod:
Photo(large) of the complete grub console session wrote:grub>
grub> videoinfo
List of supported video modes:
Legend: mask/position=red/green/blue/reserved
grub> videotest
error: no suitable video mode found.
grub> insmod vbe
error: file `/boot/grub/x86_64-efi/vbe.mod' not found
Here is the solution. (I don't know how to change the title of the original thread to indicate that the problem is solved, so I've started a new thread with a link. There must be an easier way!)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just spent a few days ripping out all the broken/buggy apps that are in the opensuse 11.2 official repos so I can finally get working software(openoffice, thunderbird, wine, eclipse, rubygems, rails, and a few others required getting the "official" versions from their respective websites to avoid strange behavior and outright broken functionality).
All of which makes updating more annoying and time-consuming. Why are opensuse packages so different anyway? Anyway, the last thing that I have noticed to fix is Konsole. For some really bizarre reason ctrl+z and ctrl+c do not work without a third keystroke: enter.Maybe this is something new with the KDE team, since they seem bent on making simple things that already work more complex, but given my experience with crappy packages in the suse repos, I am thinking this is the problem. I have looked over all the config settings that I can find and nothing fixes this affront to productivity.
I've been using Kaggregator in KDE-PIM, which uses Konqueror as the browserto go to links from Kaggregator.Unfortunately, Konqueror no longer seems tobe able to Copy highlighted material with Ctrl C, the way we've done it forever.Is this a setting I've missed? Or is this a new "feature" in Konqueror?
