Ubuntu :: Repeated Entries In "Open With Other Application" List?

Jun 26, 2011

When I open the "Open with Other Application" option on the context menu, my list of applications is excessive. I don't mind having the listing of nearly every program on my machine. What IS bothering me is the repeated entries. For example, I have Archive Mounter listed twice (one with icon, the other not). I have Banshee Media Player 3 times, DivX Player 4 times and Internet Explorer(via wine) a whopping 12 times! Where are these repeated entries and how can I remove them? The IE entries take up almost a third of my whole menu.I have looked through the files mentioned here:

Ubuntu :: Apps Disappear From 'startup Applications' List

Nov 8, 2010

I've been trying to add applications to my "Startup Applications" menu. Most of the time, they "stick," but sometimes simply disappear, either immediately or after a variable length of time (sometimes more or less immediately, sometimes after several restarts, or anywhere in between). I've noticed that, when they stop booting, their entry disappears from ~/.config/autostart, but changing permissions on the affected files (e.g., removing write access) doesn't seem to help.

Any suggestions? Re-adding the same things over and over gets frustrating after a while, and I can't figure out why these entries are disappearing.Currently running Ubuntu 9.10 on an HP Pavilion dv6000 with an Intel Centrino Core Duo processor and 2 GB of RAM.

Fedora :: Missing Apps In Windows List

Jul 19, 2010

Just noticed that the buttons for each open application, normally arrayed across the bottom menu bar, are totally missing. They're just not their, either for open or hidden apps!All I can think of that I've done since the new install is I did download gconf-editor and possibly opened it once, but I made no intentional changes.

Ubuntu Installation :: Copy Application List From Pc To Pc?

Dec 2, 2010

I recently got a new desktop, and did a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope. The reason I installed 9.04 is because the laptop I have been on for the last 7 years or so suddenly stopped operating with grub updates. I would t urn the computer on and it would never get past the 'grub loading' screen. but thats a whole different story. So I did a fresh install of 9.04 off of a startup disc I made a while back. Then I copied my /home file from my laptop (the old one) and inserted it into the new desktop's /home directory. Worked like a charm (more or less), and all my settings were transferred to my new computer. Desktop, Preferences, Admin stuff, I can't find a problem with it. Now for the applications.

I've tried multiple how-to's but none of them have worked. I found one that told me to do the following in terminal. Keep in mind, although I've been running Ubuntu for about three or four years now, I would still consider myself a noob. Anyway:

sudo dpkg --get-packages <filename><destination>

this left me with a text only file called 'package.selections' I was then to copy this file into the home folder on the new computer and run the following:

sudo dpkg --set-selections <directory>

Up until that last command, everything worked just fine. The list had tons of package titles (none with a .deb or anything though) and their state, got it on to the new computer and ran the code only to get the following error:

dpkg --set-selections does not take any argument

So i ran it without the directory, and it gave me a new line. So I typed in the directory and it gave me the following:

dpkg: unexpected end in package name at line 1

I've tried numerous other commands changing up the syntax as I go, but haven't gotten any farther. My goal is to have all the same applications installed on my new rig without having to go and install all the packages one by one.

Somehow and I'm not sure how. But opengl apps will completely hang Ubuntu 10.10 x64.This is my 2nd fresh install. I'm using the latest nvidia driver for my asus gtx460 (260.19.12)Have already verified rendering is enabled, uninstalled nouveau & blacklisted, mesa glx is installed, no errors (that I can see), etc.When I run apps, even a gl screensaver, it will hang my whole box.

And I've tested this in World of Padman, Alien Arena, Call of Duty 4 (under Wine), even Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Apps will start, but any gl content will quickly hang.This is the first time running ubuntu x64, and a new box

Ubuntu :: Window List / Keyboard Application Switcher?

Nov 7, 2010

Any of you ever heard of OS/2 WARP? My dad is a longtime user, as was I until I got my Mac (and now my netbook with Ubuntu). In any case, the OS is a tad...obsolete and my dad at some point wishes to try Ubuntu. In his current setup, he has a "Window List" that can be activated using a keyboard shortcut. It's a popup (not in a menu bar or "panel") that can be moved around and resized. From that you can use your keyboard to navigate to the program or window that you want. For instance, if I want to get to Firefox, I press Ctrl+Escape (to activate the Window List) and then I hit "F" as many times as needed to highlight "Firefox". Then I just hit "Enter" and I'm there. Anything similar out there for Ubuntu (it is preferable if the solution has text as well as icons or else can have the icons removed leaving only the text)

In addition, both him and I would be interested in some program for launching/switching to programs using keyboard shortcuts. On the Mac, I use Quicksilver for this, where it actually Launches the program if it's not open, and switches to it if it is. However, Gnome Do unfortunately lacks this functionality and I have no way to do it off the top of my head.

Ubuntu :: Open Multiple Apps From Bash Script?

Nov 17, 2010

I'm trying to create a bash script that will open firefox, evolution, gedit (specific file), etc. For the most part it works, but after it opens evolution or gedit, it pauses execution, until I close that app down.

I don't want to have this done at login, i want to pick and choose when I open them all.

Software :: Determine Difference Between Application List And Default One In Ubuntu?

Nov 4, 2009

I have used ubuntu for some time, installed&removed many packages, and now i need to determine which packages are removed&installed on my installation, comparing this list to default one. If i had another machine with just installed ubuntu, it would be just as easy as list installed packages on two machines and then diff these lists. But i don't have another machine to clean install ubuntu on it. How can i do this without having clean ubuntu installation?
