View 2 Replies View RelatedI hope I am pasting this in the correct place. I am a big fan of minimalist software- and Gedit is an excellent program. Now I am not a a programmer or anything, but I do like to write, and Gedit seems very well suited towards what I want. A simple word-bashing-out program.
But my problem is that it does text-wrap to the margin. Now I don't particularly want to do this manually, and the option in the preferences menu doesn't seem to work.
I have installed Open office.org 3.0 and now i am facing printing problem with my documents. In print preview it's showing margins properly but after giving print command print out comes with 0.00" margin, first row of calc/word file is almost missing on paper. Printer model is HP Laserjet 1160 and Operating System is Xubuntu 9.04 and paper size is 8.27"x11.69".

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm setting up a large number of virtual machines, each with a basic set of about 30 applications. Obviously, I don't want to do everything manually so I'm looking for ways to automate this process. Multiple distributions (Ubuntu, Red Hat Ent., FreeBSD, CentOS, etc.) will be used, meaning I will have a few Ubuntu installs with the basic set of 30 applications, and multiple Red Hat installs with the same set, etc. So, I'm looking for advice on automating as much of this as I can, even if it means a new form of automation for each distro.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a programmatic way to get the list of all installed applications on Linux.
Also, how can we get the application activities in Linux OS like running applications name, time of day when they started, duration till the applications were running on system, application version etc.
Is there a way to do this in C/C++.
I am building an app that runs like a daemon and fetches the applications status and sends it to the network admin for him to monitor the application usage pattern on the user computers in the network.
I have a windows app installed under wine. It works fine. However, it has the ability to launch openoffice to do further functions. Obviously I have openoffice installed under linux, but the wine app cannot see it. How can I make the wine app see across the emulation layer into linux to see the app it needs? Dont tell me I need to install openoffice under wine as well to get it to work!

This is a real newb's question. I can't get to my files on a NAS once I'm in an application.ExampleI have a text/graphic file to open from the NAS. I can see it in Nautilus, and can double-click there to open in OpenOffice/Gedit/Gimp. Once I'm working I want to open another file so in my application I go File > OpenFrom there I can't see the NAS. (Interestingly I can see a locally-connected USB hdd).Do I really have to go through Nautilus every time I want to open something from the NAS?

I can't open the GUI for most of the applications in system > administration and some in system > preferences. In preferences IBus preferences, Main Menu, Prodcast Preferences, Ubuntu One are affected and in administration only Disk Utility, Login Screen, Synaptic, Network Tools, Time & Date, Users & Groups, Update Manager do start (Sorry, that I state the apps that run, but this list seemed shorter to me.). There's just a notification prompted that the program is started but then nothing happens.
Further, the update manager posts a notification in the panel that "A problem occurred when checking for updates." I have the feeling that this occurred at the same time as I couldn't start the programs anymore. Up to now I wasn't able to find out what the problem is, but I didn't touch the software sources. I read threads about similar problems and there something seemed to be mixed up with the files /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname. But I checked on that and it's fine in my case.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just downloaded Eclipse, and it is packaged as a compressed file. Within is a folder with the application plus configuration and any plugins et cetera. Should I simply put this in my /usr/bin folder? Is the bin path recursive, so that it will execute eclipse/eclipse when I simply write eclipse? All other files in there are simply that - single binaries, and no config-files or such.
Another possibility that occured to me is place the application in a separate folder, create a bash script that simply starts the application in the bin folder. But what folder would be good? I don't really want to contaminate my home folder with machine-wide applications...You might call me pedantic, but that is because I am. I just want to know what the "convention" is so to speak.
I have a very weird printing problem, and don't really know where to look at to solve it.For some apps,printing works great (openoffice, acroread, kpdf, kghostview, Kolourpaint). For some others, the app just freezes when I click on "print" (gimp, firefox, "document reader", "image reader"). Maybe this is not the correct forum to ask this question, but I don't really see which one would be the best.
