Ubuntu :: Make Skype Not Blink When People Answer?
May 8, 2011
I put my skype chat on another workspace so I can focus on my school work and I have two windows on my first workspace so that i can alt tab easily but every time someone talks on skype it comes to my first work space and ruins my alt-tabbing comfort. How do I make it stay in its workspace and leave me alone? I rather something in the taskbar blink or if that's not possible, I just want no blinking at all. This is frustrating me since I need my laptop for my homework.
I was wondering if it is at all possible to use CSS code to make the Gnome panel clock text blink. I Googled a bunch of CSS code which is supposedly used to create a blinking text effect but none work in the Gnome panel clock. Is there any sort of CSS code which can do that? If so, what is it?
How can I set the outgoing port for the socket? In wireshark, my outgoing port is 1024, and i want to set it to 6800 (or a similar port) I see the outgoing broadcast-message in wireshark, but no answer. There are three ECU's in the LAN, which should answer. The following code is a mixture of C/C++ and jointed from different articles:
[code]...
In wireshark I can only see the outgoing message. But the "recvBuffer" (in the lower part of the code) contains the same content as the sendBuffer. Is it right, that I need a sender and further more a receiver? Or should I receive the broadcast-answer on the same socket on which I send the bc?
I recently bought a IOgear USB bluetooth adapter and a Sony DRBT101/BLK bluetooth headphones to use with my computer.Whenever I try to make a call using these headphones with skype, I can speak for say 10 seconds and then the headset disconnects completely from the system. I then have to reconnect the headset by switching it off and on. I do not have this problem listening to music using A2DP. It works fine with my mobile phone.When I change the profile to Telephony Duplex (HSP/HFP), it shows up as hands free, I thought it should be headset in blueman manager. My friend uses Plantronics headset with is Dell laptop with built in bluetooth and he says his comes up as headset not hands free. Could this be causing the problem?
Sound Recorder is working fine. But when try to make normal call or test call I cannot record sound my internal mic in SKYPE. As I speak something immediately the sound level of mic drops to zero. Alsa driver are installed. HDA intel conexant mic.
It is me again. I have succeded and make video and audio working in Skype but I cant make Microphone working at all. Tried some info I found on the web but no way.

I installed Fedora 11. It 's working fine I have problem only for Skype. When I try to call some one, I got the error "Problem with audio playback". I have "skype-2.1.0.81-fc10.i586.rpm" on my machine.
When I open the "Options" of Skype, the camera can be recognized and there is video. But I don't know how to start a Skype video call. My Skype account is "dynamiccliu" if you want to add me and have a try the video call.
I have a strange problem with my skype beta (latest) and Pidgin (gmail account) the problem is when i make voice call, it works fine for 1 or 2 mins then the voice drops and it connects after 20,30 secs.
i am new at ubuntu but at random times it will go to a blank screen with a cursor in the top left that doesnt blink. Cant do anything after that. I did all the updates and I am on an Acer Aspireone the mini computer.
Cannot log out of Lucid Lynx. Cap and Scroll lock LED blink and nothing defeats them. I have to shutdown the computer by switching it off.
I removed xorg.conf (which I had installed for screen resolution). After removing it, the shutdown worked well. No more blinking and hangup during shutdown. But I lost the screen resolution.
I need the screen resolution. how to solve the blink issue. Does it have to do with something in the xorg.conf file causing this?
Can anyone at least clue me in as to what causes the "kernel panic"?
I have windows 7 + Ubuntu 10.04 in dual boot, I noticed that sometimes the ubuntu was not booting.
Right after I select the os in grub (ubuntu) the screen goes black with the blink cursor and nothing happens, that's all no messages it's stuck there forever.
Today, it does this every time I try to enter Ubuntu, it's just stuck there.
how come blinking effect on dockbarx when someone messages you on emesene doesn't work with awn (installed in ubuntu 10.04)? but on my 10.10 laptop it works nicely. Any workarounds?
I recently downloaded Firefox 5.0 Aurora (alpha). I just extracted the tarball in my home directory and the program itself seems to work okay. However, when I add the shortcut to the launcher it does nothing more than blink when clicked. The only way I've found to get the Firefox to open without running from terminal was to add a symbolic link to the desktop, which is fine I suppose. I was just curious if there is a way to edit the launcher icon itself to make it work, or a more sophisticated install procedure that I need to use.
I've encountered a very strange bug in Rhythmbox 0.12.8 on my Ubuntu 10.04 install. For some reason, anytime I have Rhythmbox running, all 3 LEDs on my Nostromo n52 gaming device blink, slightly faster than 1 blink per second (or a little over 60 Hz).The blinking does interfere with use of the n52. While the blinking occurs, only about half of my n52 keypresses get through.I guess Rhythmbox is sending signals via USB somehow. Anyone else noticed this bug?
I'm having some trouble with my Taskbar. It's supossed to flash or blink when I receive a message (I've already configured Pidgin and I've also tried with emesene) but it just doesn't flash. I think it's something related to gnome or ubuntu config so it won't flash under any circumstance but I am not sure.
How to set up an Asus USB N-13 wireless adapter (when i plug it NOTHING happens (the light on the device doesn't even blink)). I was trying to use this (click me), but i got confused mid way through. I have Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
I have a weird problem in my Aspire One D150 with an Intel 945 GME, and in my HP DV5 with an Intel GM45. When i put a window like Firefox in full screen mode (F11), and try to get into a menu, or an auto-complete option or trying to access a URL in the history of the address bar, results in a black blink that its very annoying, because it happens all the time.
This problem appears in the most GTK Apps that i run in full screen mode. QT Works perfect. If the composite its off, works perfect in both.
This happens in KDE 4.3.5 and KDE 4.4.1, so I have no clue about this. I want my composite on, and make that the GTK Apps work as well as the QT ones.
I've been googling around and can't seem to find my answer. I've got an old ATI 9700 pro that I'm removing from my system. I'm replacing it with an Nvidia GeForce 6200. What do I need to do to switch these in Karmic? I tried switching the cards, but I only get a white screen with the pointer on the new card. I can't do anything else. I'm guessing I have to uninstall the open source ATI driver first. How do I do that?
i need to send a list of tasks each morning from a document to my team and i wanna do this from home; the thing is that i can only access my pc via ssh and i have to type the command for each person and takes to damn long. What i want is to send the document to a list of emails using only one command or a script.
I've done a bit of googling, but can't find a clear answer on this. If I format a USB drive using NTFS, so I can store copies of files from my Win 7 machine and my Lucid machine, will it work.
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 (2.6.31-20-generic) and I've installed my camera (Microdia Win2 PC Camera 0c45:613b) and it works fine and everything locally. But as soon as it connects to a contact on MSN or skype and I've tried a web chatroom aswell. and same issue.
Now is it the Camera? 'Coz when I've had the cam installed on Windows XP it wouldn't work on MSN either. But if it the camera then, why does it work locally like it should on the net....
i'm trying to find a convenient way to share files without having to upload to a server via FTP. i suppose ubuntuone might work, but i have no idea whether the files can be made public
I have XFCE and xorg-server-1.7.7 in slackware64-13.0. I have my keyboard set up in xorg.conf. X ignores that and takes info from hal. So I have a US keyboard, when I have a UK/IE keyboard actually. When I added openoffice, i found I was getting double letters am getting double letters all over the place, and the cursor blink has slowed too near zero. So when I want to remove them again, the mouse will not land the cursor in the middle of a word to delete the extras. An average of 3 double letters are happening each line. Mouse sometimes works to remove them, usually not. I have set 'repeat delay' at maximum, 'repeat speed' & 'blink delay' at minimum. No effect. Disabled key repeat - still happens.
I have slackware64 current installed, my laptop have a nec pci express ubs3.0 port, but when I connect something width startx initiated my box freeze and the caplocks led start to blink, I think maye a kernel panic.
My test box is running 9.10 desktop,bind,dhcp,LAMP. Everything is working good, except for one thing. How do I configure the DNS to answer the IP of eth3 (192.168.0.2), no matter what the client asked for? If you ask my DNS for google.com, I want it to return 192.168.0.2. I know this can't be that hard, I just can''t figure it out.
