View 1 Replieshow to remove the 'Search and sort section' entirely from the GUI? I would like to only have the cover view in that whole area with just the library size and the buttons on top. I know you can set the cover view to open in a separate window, but then I have to resize the cover view window to cover that whole area every time I start calibre.

Now it's impossible to go back to google search engine as "ask" always remains as default search and no other search engins are shown in the firefox list.Any idea about how to get rid of "ask"? I managed to install another "unofficial google" search plugin but if i click on restore default search engine "ask" will be restored.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have noticed that the files and folders search in Unity, only shows up those files which have been amended (or possibly just opened) since the install.
i was wondering if there was a way i could have the search index (or something vaguely equivalent) all the files on my machine. This is especially important given that i reinstall the OS every six months on a new distribution cycle, copying all my old files across.
Without being able to see my old files the search is pretty much reduced to a recent history search.
I'm trying to install parcelite. However I'm having trouble. When I search for parcelite in the add/remove nothing shows. So that means I need the repository right? Well I can't find the repository.I went here [URL].. I want to install this but I don't know how. Since the only way I know how to install things is through add/remove and yum install in terminal.

Is there any way, either with something included or with a program that can be set up to search for files in Ubuntu? I need something like the search for files or folders that was available in Windoze 98 and 2000. I have tried the built in search under "places" and I have found no way to get it to search a full drive or all drives.
View 5 Replies View Relatedfind a file or content by name recursively similar to the ms-windows function search with Linux? I can do find . | grep test.html suspecting it's not the best.
For instance, running find . | grep terms.htmlgives my expected result while locate terms.html doesn't even though locate gets updated db - it might have to do with that it's an USB stick the file is on?
I need the ability to search for file content in documents and spreadsheets and I need to be able to do this from the folder level.When I hover my mouse over the "search" button in the file browser toolbar, it says that it can "locate documents and folders on this computer by name or content," but that is not the case. It can only locate documents and folders by name. Is there something I need to download that will allow me to do this? I have nautilus file manager.

I only need to find just one file, but scalpel retrieved thousands and thousands of them, all titled after a sequence of numbers. If I could only search within them all for a single word I'd be able to identify the ones to check out vs. the duds immediately.

Since I trialled a commercial company's map product under Wine somewhere in my system is still their name. Any gpx file I choose to download and the company's name appears in properties. Ggx files are also associated with Wine whilst an untainted PC in the house just has "Browse" as an "open with" option.
First things first, how do I find and delete this commercial company's name totally from any part of my system? How do I find their name in one or more of my files?
I'm trying to look through a big folder of air photos to see if there are some world files that have duplicate coordinates. I want to find *.jgw files that have 123 in line 5 and 456 in line 6. I first thought grep could do this for me but grep 123 *.jgw|grep 456 finds only files where 123 and 456 are on the same line. Is there a sed trick for this?

I've read the man pages for Grep, Ack-grep and looked through nautilus, dolphin, midnight commander as well as tried beagle, tracker and google desktop (and looked throught these forums).
I can do this function easily with xp's wagging dog in the Windows search, but would like to find a way in Linux.
I want to use the terminal to search for all files (also the hidden ones) who are not of a specified type.
For example; I want to find all files that do not end with *.txt.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there really no way of having with a GUI an indexed file search by filename (not contents etc) which gives a detailed list? Great big icons as a "result" is no good to me, I want "details" that I can then click on to either open or copy etc. I tried the totally useless "Tracker" and Zeitgeist in my 11.04 is no better. There is a fantastic product in the win environment called everything.exe which does exactly what I want. I cannot be alone in this type of requirement. It has to have a GUI.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am running Ubuntu 10.10 and have a 2TB external hard drive where I store several hundred movies. Each movie is contained in its own folder (in case the movie is broken up into more than 1 file). All the movie folders are contained in one "Movies" folder, so a typical movie location would be something like:
/media/MyBook/Movies/The Matrix/The Matrix (disc1).avi
Because of this, my movies are in alphabetical order, which is nice if I'm looking for a specific movie, but I'd also like to classify each movie into one or more genres. Sometimes I'm in the mood for a certain type of movie, and don't want to just browse aimlessly through the alphabetical list. So for example, The Matrix might be classified as Action, Science Fiction, and Thriller. If I were to add these genres into the "Notes" property of a movie folder, is it possible to conduct a search for words only in these notes? So that if I did a search for "Thriller" this movie and any other movie I classified as a thriller would show up?
