I'm using ubuntu 10.04LTS with gnome.
I had to install gtk+ today (this program i was compiling said it needed it) and i managed to get gtk+ working. but now the entire OS has switched to gtk+ (it's all grey and nasty).
Can I switch back to gtk2 without un-installing gtk+?
I can't run Ardour GTK2 in Ubuntu 10.04. JACK control is open, but sends error messages relating to not being able to connect to the JACK server whenever I try to press play.
Ardour says JACK is running in another user's profile, and I haven't even made it to the program yet. Error message also says audio controls could be messed up.
On Ubuntu 10.10 I started a 2nd instance of Firefox using the command: Firefox -ProfileManager -no-remote &Created a new profile and everything works smoothly except for the fact that this instance of FF does not obey by GTK2 customizations that I have placed in ~/.gtkrc-2.0.Moreover, only SOME of the customizations are not obeyed. For example, the vertical scrollbars are supposed to be on the left, but they are on the right. The scrollbar arrows are together (Mac-like) as specified, so is the scrollbar width.The first instance obeys all customizations with scrollbars on the left.

I can use the font fine in 'xfontsel' and 'urxvt', but when GTK2 tries to render this font. its not even the same font, its just using some default font.

I am trying to theme my Gnome Shell experience, and I have little complaints for the Shell Theme/GTK3 side of things. However, even though there are GTK2 files included in the packages, my GTK2 apps are theme-wise broken. The colors are not on par and the buttons are not round as the theme should say, as it's still supposed to work since the files are provided.

My actual program is quite large, so I am using a modified version of the sample program from GNOME library for trial. I wish to increase the font size, and I have using PangoFontDescription. I have made that section of the code bold and italic below for quick reference to the code that affects fonts. But it does not make any difference. I am compiling the C file using gcc. The code is as follows(hello.c):
#include <gtk/gtk.h>

ive been trying to move myself away from windows, but it seems like ubuntu just wont have it, either that or win7 puts some curse on ubuntu Just done my 3rd(3rd time this error has now happened) fresh install of ubuntu 9.10 onto my second hard drive(first hard drive has win7), install seemed fine, boots up nicely into grub, got the internet working fine(worked out of the box, wireless), other programs run fine, all seems to be working wonderfully well!
Until I tried to update, started up the update manager, clicked on check, its finds loads of updates so I let it download them, downloads all 200+ updates, starts to install them.
The updates are installing fine but then about three quarters of the way along the progress bar for installing it gets an error.Heres the details it showed at the error: (the rest of the details just looked like successful installs/updates)
Code:

I'm using Debian Testing (Stretch, right now), and for a little while, a couple of months or so, QtCurve wasn't working properly (and lately, not at all) on GTK2.
After quite a lot of frustrated attempts, I think i fixed it in a way that's probably not recommended at all. I copied the file libqtcurve.so from Wheezy's version of gtk2-engines-qtcurve, and used it instead. It "just worked".
So, experiencing problems with QtCurve on GTK (most noticeably, being unable to set fonts and icon themes for GTK2 apps), or was it just an oddity of my install? My installs are often not all that standard, so I'm never sure. I'm asking because I have to figure out lots of things if I'm to make a bug report, and the bug may not even really exist . I think I'll even check before if the Testing package from another server works, maybe that's the problem.
I just found that this fix/version makes inkscape crash, would probably do the same to some other stuff -- newer versions (even with proper full package install) also have the same effect, except for that latest one, that doesn't seem to work in GTK2.
It's reported as a bug in Ubuntu. The "correct"/better fix seems to be commenting the font-related lines in /usr/share/themes/QtCurve/gtk-2.0/kdeglobals (Not to be confused with KDE's own file of the same name) on the newer package. That doesn't seem to make inkscape crash.
The same file also set the icon theme on GTK2 as Oxygen, commenting the icon line on the same file doesn't fix it, the correct theme apparently has to be spelled out, it seems it has to be for all users using any QtCurve theme, and GUI tools to change the icon theme won't work (but I haven't really tested the "native GTK" ones).

I downloaded a lot of gtk2 themes based on the Murrine engine (the 0.90.3-2 version) but they don't work.
When I select them with Lxapperance, it returns something like "gtkrc:91: error: unexpected identifier `gradient_colors', expected character `}'" for each line.
I am trying to install themes that require gtk2-pixbuf-engine, I found the the theme engine but when I run
Code:
./confiure --prefix=/usr
I get the following error
Code:

When I try to open the "INSTALL" I get the following error:

I'm trying to work with the pcsx2 dev to compile on fedora 86_64. [URL]. Unfortunately I seem to be missing a gtk2 / glib package as building stops with:

I have gtk2-devel.i686, glib-devel.i686 and all the other dependencies afaik - How do I get yum to tell me which gtk* packages are installed for instance...?
used to (before 11.4) i never noticed a slowdown or pause in that YaSTinstall process _just_ before it finishes, when it updates a long listof config files (in /sbin/conf.d/)...before it just _ran_ through them
all...quickly producing a list like:
Running SuSEconfig.fonts
Running SuSEconfig.glib2
Running SuSEconfig.froff

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using a Fling KVM switch (by Belkin), to connect 2 computers to my monitor One computer is running XP and the other is running Linux. My wireless switching mechanism has just gone the way of the saints but Belkin has supplied a software solution for this occurrence. There is a small app called Fling (surprising) that allows me to switch from the XP machine to the Linux machine but nothing to switch back to the XP. What I need to know is there a similar app for the Linux computer. (NB I have tried Synergy but have no idea how to set it up - I've been told that synergy might work).

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs anyone using a kvm switch without any problems? I've been dealing with this for 3 years now & still haven't solved it. I've got two different kvm switches & they both have the same problem. Ubuntu no matter what version will only work correctly on the first port. The two switches I have are a 2- port trend-net & a 4 port Alluratek, they both do just monitor,keyboard & ps2 mouse. The problem is only with the monitor. The resolution is stuck at 800/600 or else it only covers part of the screen. After messing with xorg forever in Hardy I finally got it working but upgrading to 10.04 I just give up. Windows never has a problem detecting my monitor with the kvm switches but Ubuntu does.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a HP Mini netbook. I wanted to switch to Ubuntu but the only CD I had on hand was an old Ubuntu 9.10 cd. so I used that, since I didn't have internet access at the time. Now I do, and I want to switch over to Netbook Remix, and then upgrade to 10.04. I do not have a Thumbstick on hand, and my external CD drive does not burn cds. am I totally screwed here? How can I get this done? what exactly are the differences between the full Ubuntu, and Netbook Remix. is Netbook Remix just the full Ubuntu with a different style Desktop Environment? or is it a completely different distro, with different programs and such?

View 7 Replies View RelatedCurrently running a Windows XP computer and an Ubuntu computer through a new TRENDnet 2-computer USB KVM switch, a wireless laser mouse and a brand new GigaWare multimedia USB keyboard. A 20-inch picture tube.
I can switch between computers using the buttons on the switch, and I can use the universal hot-key command on the Windows side to switch to Linux, but the universal command won't work on my Linux computer. The universal command is two presses of the Scroll Lock key in succession.
In Windows, the Scroll Lock light comes on, on the first press and goes off on the second, as I switch computers. In Ubuntu, the scroll lock light never lights.
The Windows computer is a 2002 model HP, 2.6 GHz Pentium 4, while this computer is similar to the K7S5A mainboard, different manufacturer, 1 GHz Athlon processor.
Any programs, commands or anything I might use on Ubuntu to determine the status of the keyboard's scroll lock, or would that more likely be a bios issue?
Edit: TRENDnet TK-207K kvm model number.
I'm using a 64-bit machine, and naturally everything is based on the 64-bit. However I need to get the Juniper Network Connection running, which only works for 32-bit java. How should I download the 32-bit java so that it won't interfere with other application using 64-bit java, and set the PATH so that the 32-bit java is used when I use Juniper Network.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have bought three different kvm switchs to connect a Win 7 and a Ubuntu 10.04 system (two different towers). After plugging in any of the KVM switchs the ubuntu system wont display correctly. It either blinks or is completely black.Because of this I researched this problem and decided to go with a manual switch. My question is if anyone has had experience with a manual switch and if adding an agp video card would hinder performance with a switch.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have Kubuntu 10.4 cleanly transformed to Gnome (aptitude task kubuntu-desktop was removed and ubuntu-desktop installed). I want to switch off the sleep key, because I sometimes press it accidentally and the computer goes to sleep. Fortunately the sleep is correct, no applications crash, but still some network connections goes away and it is annoying and time wasting. I tried to switch it off with the power management tool, but there are only two options: sleep to memory and sleep to disk. I am sure, there was "do nothing" option in some other versions, but it isn't there.
How can I fix it? Is it possible to hack it with some "edit gnome variables directly" tool? I am experienced linux user, but not a gnome or X expert, and I don't like to solve simple problems (and I think this is a simple problem) with complicated scripting and strange hacks.
I believe Ubuntu 10.10 has a DNS cache, how can I disable this?
