Fedora Installation :: No Menu - No Panel - Just Plain Background After Install
Aug 8, 2010I've installed Fedora 13 from DVD and selected some extra features (php, mySQL). After the installation and user creation, I rebooted and logged in - clean clean desktop. No menu, no panel nothing. But I can run some commands (like firefox) from ALT+F2. It looks as if the commands works fine, but no menu.
I've re-installed my whole system.... same thing after logging in. I can see the bottom panel before log in.
Whatever I should do, I can only through command line as I'm able (from ALT+F2) to open a terminal. I suspect my resolution or something.
I'm working from a Acer laptop who's monitor is broken, connected a Samsung SyncMaster 943nwx to it. Its a 17" wide monitor.
Ubuntu :: ODT To Plain Text Through Terminal
Jan 7, 2010I've been using openoffice.org a lot recently and I was hoping that I'd be able to cat the contents of the file solely through the terminal.What's the best way to do this? My thought is to use a command in a terminal to convert to plain text and cat the file.

Then I tried restarting would not boot back into ubuntu until I reinstall E16 in a new created account in root. Its got me trapped and I really do not want to reinstall..

Apr 13, 2011I recently installed Xubuntu on a 5+ year-old Acer Aspire laptop. In spite of how the root, swap and home are volumes in an LVM2 group on top of a fully-encrypted harddisk, it's quite swift this computer isn't for me, however; it's for my old man. It's been my pet project for the past few weeks, as an exercise in making Linux both highly secure and user-friendly, so that even a technophobe like him could use it without fear of identity theft if it ever gets lost or stolen. I recently shipped it off to him...
The weakest part of security, however, I fear may be the screensaver, which is why I ask. I've searched and searched and cannot manage to find any information on security hardening practices (apart from banal advice such as "always choose a secure password" and "never log in to an X-session as root"). What I want to know is, just how safe is a locked screen? Also...is it technically possible with the right tools to get a core dump of a running computer and thus extract the block device encryption key from memory? I know that your run-of-the-mill thief will just try hitting the power button and throwing in a livedisk, but hey, you never know. Edit: found. [URL] I guess I need to tell him how to set the BIOS password to thwart that sort of thing next time I talk to him on the phone...
Ubuntu :: Kubuntu: How To Get A Plain (no Image) Task Bar
Jul 2, 2010Kubuntu 10.04, how do you get rid of the background image for the bar? I want my desktop functional and not visually interesting. The taskbar (sorry I forget the correct name) background makes it much harder to see the useful content, especially the icon for selecting between desktops, that uses the same shades as the default image.
I took a few google searches and a bunch of experiments just to get rid of the image (in favor of a solid color) for the main desktop. That dialog was not where I expected it and I wasted lots of time in dialogs for configuring the desktop appearance that don't offer that basic option. But I did find it. That still leaves an image as background for the bar, and I have no clue how to get rid of that image.

Ubuntu :: RDP Extensions And Plain Text File Types
Jul 15, 2010Basically, I have a selection of .rdp shortcuts to various machines, but they are considered the file type "plain text document (text/plain)" so if I change it to open with to tsclient, all of that file type opens with tsclient. And if I change it to gedit, all the rdp files open with gedit. Is there a way to create a custom file type dependent on the extension rdp, or is there a way to set tsclient to open by extension rather than filetype?

Apr 5, 2011I just had my pc updated with the latest Ubuntu 11.04.. but since im very curious with the new appearance (which i think really nice and neat), i started to configure Compiz and opened the 'compiz configuration setting manager'.
since i thought it was OK, i just changed the desktop configuration to 'Desktop cube' just like on my previous Ubuntu (10.10).. and i just clicked to change to desktop cube whatever popped there to confirm it.
but later i found i can't open any programs anymore, just plain wallpaper on my 'desktop'.
Ubuntu :: All Files Show As Type Plain Text?
Apr 14, 2011I somehow managed to screw up my lucid lynx system so that all files show up under Nautilus properties as Type Plain Text. When I double click a file, any file, the system tries to open it as plain text with gedit. Everything worked correctly until yesterday when I tried to install a new version of PyQt4. If I reboot with an old (karmic) version of Ubuntu and bring up Nautilus Properties on the same file (my data partition can be opened in other OS's) the files show up with the correct file type (PDF, ODT, etc) So the problem is not in the file itself, but rather in the lucid OS, which is mis-interpreting the file type. As I said I somehow messed it up when installing the new version of PyQt4.

heres the command

CentOS 5 :: Stalling, Freezing And Just Plain Locking Up With 5.4 And Gnome?
Feb 1, 2010I've been having problems for a while with my pc at work and after a bout with a similar desktop I figured out that it somehow relates to the kernel updates from 5.3 to 5.4. I have two machines with identical motherboards (Asus M3a32-mvp), cpu ( athlon 64 X2 6400) and memory (8 gigs Corsair) with different video cards.
My desktop at work started with Centos 5.2 and was kept updated to 5.4 along the way. The other PC is my desktop at home and it started out at 5.3 and stayed there until recently mainly because my wife mostly uses it so I just never got around to doing updates.
Here is the problem, a while back the work PC started doing weird things, it would stutter, freeze up, sometime the mouse cursor would freeze into a cross hair and sometimes completely lock me out where even the keyboard wouldn't work so I had to kill power to reboot anf get control back. I eventually discovered that if I still had keyboard access I could jump to a console window, log in and killall nautilus or killall gnome-panel and I might get things back to normal for a while. I can even log in with another machine to use the killall commands if the keyboard locks up. I checked TOP during these episodes to see what was killing the system, I figured something was running a muck and gobbling up processing time or memory but nothing shows that appears to be off.
Like I said the home system was on 5.3 and not showing the stuttering problems so I even considered that the video card drivers might be causing something, that is until I tried to update the home system and got the same issues.
I had a hard drive failing at home so I figured I'd back up the data and reinstall the main system on a new one so I could start over with a clean system. This time I started from 5.4. Almost imediately I discovered the freezing problems after the complete install so after trying a few things I wiped and reloaded, couldn't mess around too long with it as the wife was really complaining about not having a PC, a 5.3 version. Bingo, now the system functions perfectly, no stuttering or freezing up. I then used yum updates to updates everything but the kernel. This also seemed to give me a system without freezes so I stopped there with the home machine.
Just to be clear the home pc used the standard yum repositories defaulted in the setup i didn't add any so it isn't a 3rd party repo causing the problems with the home machine. So it looks like the updates from 5.3 to 5.4 regarding the kernel seem to be causing me problems.
It's getting so bad at work I'm planning on wiping and reloading a 5.3 version and going from there but that's alot of work so I'd really like to just fix what is going on with the 5.4 version.
Fedora Installation :: Boot Just Stops On Plain Blue F Screen
Mar 15, 2011Have recently dual-installed F14 with Windows 7 on an Asus Eee PC 1015P, have been in and out of both systems satisfactorily a number of times. Now the Fedora boot just hangs up at the plain blue "f" screen. I have been prodding around looking at the problem of having no WLAN under Fedora but have not knowingly made any changes. I thought about just doing a re-install but am reluctant to risk messing things up further i.e damaging the Windows until I have Fedora working ok.
View 11 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Removing Line Terminators From A Plain Text File?
Jul 31, 2010Linux kernel 2.6.21.5, Slackware 12.0.
I would like to know if it would be easy for me to get a program which, given a plain text file as input, discards the line separators and writes the rest as its output. And let's put in the case of a file that has been mangled to the point of having CR,LF (carriage return, line feed) in some places, only CR in others, and only LF in still other places. That is, the three possible combinations used in systems as a newline char (the 1st is, or was used by m$- dos, the 3rd one by Unix and I know systems where CR is the line terminator).
After all, all the program has to do is, every time it finds a char belonging to the set {CR, LF}, cast it away.
