<p>Unity crashes every now and then (but daily). I cannot recognize any pattern of what caused it to crash. After the crash it restarts automatically the desktop. I have a Nvidia Geforce Go 7600.</p>
<p>Is there any log file that could be inspected or reported?</p>

<p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/4NxBG.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
<p>As you can see in the image, the Social website one is active because I opened Facebook in a quicklist. However, if I were to now open up a chromium tab or use a Google service, it would only add a triangle indicator to the Social websites icon instead of the respective launchers it was initiated from. Is there a way to force the Application shortcut windows to be indicated by their respective icons, or if not, a way to force Chromium to be the icon with all of the triangles?</p>

39832 | 1 | null | 2011-05-03T22:10:21.683 | 1 | 470 | <p>After I first upgraded to Natty from 10.10 I went to fix my Compiz settings. First, the rotating cube wouldn't work. That was disappointing but not a huge deal. Later, every time I changed a setting in Compiz, my whole top toolbar with my clock, keyboard settings, calendar, etc. disappeared. I brought it back with a reboot, but that was only temporary.</p>
<p>Then I tried to install my nvidia drivers (I'm using an Asus UL50V) and after they were installed, I rebooted. Upon going back into Natty I was informed that Unity had crashed and was not compatible with my machine (I had already been using Unity for about a day at that point). Now I'm just running in Classic mode.</p>
<p>How can I get Unity back up and running? And once I do, what is there to do about my problems in the first paragraph?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

Final reboot and voila! Ummmmm....wait a minute....it looks virtually identical to the Kubuntu screen prior to the upgrade. No "Dock" to the left, etc. Outside of some new default applications, doesn't look like I've done anything.</p>
<p>And I don't see anything on startup asking for default desktop.</p>
<p>OK, and I don't know if this has any bearing -- I'm running this under Windows Vista using VMWare player (most recent version). I've allocated 1 Gig for the virtual OS. And it seems "snappy" enough, all things considered.</p>
<p>Is this just considered too underpowered and THAT'S why Unity isn't visible to me. Is there someplace that I have to make a setting to make it happen. Is there some double secret handshake I need?</p>

I understand why these are the defaults, but it makes me feel like I'm constantly waiting for it to do its thing. I feel like I'm wasting many minutes each day because of it. I have done everything I can come up with on my own to try to configure them, but it doesn't seem possible.</p>
<p>I have made sure my "Edge Trigger Delay" is set to 0, but the delay in making the launcher appear is still way too long. Is there any way to modify it? I've played with all the different animations, but the delay seems to happen before any of the animations even start. Is there no way to adjust the delay of the appearance of the launcher? I know I can move my mouse all the way up to the top-left corner to make it appear instantly, but I can't believe there isn't a way to configure the delay when using the Left method.</p>
<p>Second, the (lack of) speed at which the launcher scrolls through options is just painful. I haven't found any way to configure that either. I've already shrunk the icon size to 32, but I still have more icons than fit and am forced to wait for unity to scroll. These icons all fit nicely, with much room to spare, across the top. Forcing the launcher to the left, means there is much less space for launcher items. Is there a way to move it to the top or bottom? That would at least help me avoid having to wait and wait for it to scroll.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

Now, <strong>whenever I log into anything other than Ubuntu Safe Mode, the system hangs</strong>. The mouse doesn't work, the clock freezes, the ssh connexion is broken. <strong>This happens AFTER THE LOGIN</strong>, on ALL desktops, except for safe mode, including Unity, Classic and, my standard desktop, KDE.</p>
<p><strong>I can't find any error in any log.</strong> All seems to work fine. Sometimes the system starts for a couple of seconds and then freezes, sometimes it freezes while the desktop is still loading. But the computer is completely unusable outside of the safe mode.</p>
<p>I'm thinking, if there is <strong>a list</strong> somewhere <strong>of what Safe Mode does NOT start</strong>, I could start all of these things one by one and see what makes my system freeze that way. Is there such a list somewhere? </p>
<p>Or even better: does anyone have an idea of what it might be? <strong>The problem does not come from the 3D or Compiz</strong> or anything of the kind. That works. I've tried it and disabled it from KDE. Plus, "Classic no effects" has the same problem as the rest.</p>
<p>What could it be? And what does Classic Safe Mode not do?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>

<li>When it does, it shows the video over
the desktop instead of inside the
player. The only way to get Ubuntu to
function normally is to restart the

vlc runs perfectly well in Windows.

39911 | 1 | 39961 | 2011-05-04T05:48:12.527 | 2 | 654 | <p>I have a server running Ubuntu Server 11.04, and when I add a PPA via <code>add-apt-repository</code>, <code>apt-get</code> doesn't load the PPA when I do <code>apt-get update</code>. It's specifically <a href="https://launchpad.net/~jerome-etienne/+archive/neoip?field.series_filter=natty" rel="nofollow">this</a> PPA I need to add, but same thing happens for all the PPA's I've tried.</p>
<p>I have checked that the .list files are in fact created in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, and if I add the PPAs' "string" directly in to /etc/apt/sources.list, it still doesn't work.</p>
<p>You can see <a href="https://gist.github.com/952345" rel="nofollow">here</a> in action that I first add the PPA and then update, but the PPA's is not on the list of loaded archives. I have also done a s-trace something, that some guy on #ubuntu-server said I could try, and the PPA's I add are actually shown in it and "handled", but for some reason, they are still not getting "punched in use".</p>
<p>I hope somebody can help me with this.</p>
<p>By the way, this server is originally a 10.04.1 installation that has been upgraded to 10.10 and then to 11.04, if that can have something to do with it.</p>
<p>Thank you so far,

39913 | 1 | 39958 | 2011-05-04T05:52:34.423 | 0 | 1269 | <p>I have a domain name <code>mydomain.net</code> purchased/registered for one of the cloud server(ubuntu) and its pointing to the server(nslookup). I have installed DNS(bind) service with the domain <code>mydomain.net</code>. Now I'm trying to add some host records for other cloud servers(all has static public ip) so that I can access them globally anywhere with the name assigned as host records in the DNS. </p>
<p>I added some hosts(I use webmin to manage DNS) for name and ip resolution but I could not resolve their names. </p>
<p>Many times I installed & configured local dns servers with no publicly registered domain names. But I didn't not understand what the concept behind running DNS for global name resolution. Anybody could tell me here if it's actually possible.</p>
<p><strong>EDIT</strong>: 1</p>
<p>I already added the name server like <code>my-dns-hostname-here.mydomain.net</code> for my DNS ip 204.x.x.x and also the host record like the one below for my DNS ip 204.x.x.x</p>
<pre><code>my-dns-hostname-here.mydomain.net
mediawiki.mydomain.net
</code></pre>
<p>when I did nslookup of above host records, it didn't resolve them</p>
<p><strong>EDIT</strong>: 2</p>
<p>As a procedure I'll be adding <code>domain mydomain.com</code> & <code>nameserver dns-ip-here</code> entries in /etc/resolv.conf while doing local dns server but in the cloud dns server I didn't but the ISP's dns server ips. If I have to change it then probably I may have to restart the cloud server which I couldn't do it as it is one of the production server.</p>

"body": "<p>You can find a good explanation about how dns work on <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System\" rel=\"nofollow\">wikippedia</a>.</p>\n\n<p>As a simplification, you can look at it like an inverse file system. To discover the IP address for mydomain.net a computer will work in a similar way that to find a file on /net/mydomain. First it must read the root dir to find where id the <em>net</em> dir, in dns land it will have to ask the root servers for .net. Then it will read the net dir to search for mydomain, in dns land it will ask the.net server for mydomain.</p>\n\n<p>Note that this was not a technically correct answer. Filesystems don't work that way, DNS caching and multiple DNS makes name resolving more complicated. But I feel that it is a simple model.</p>\n\n<p>Back to your problem: the .net root dns are saying that the authoritative dns for your domain are <em>dns1.stabletransit.com.</em> and <em>dns2.stabletransit.com.</em>. So when a computer is triying to resolve test.mydomain.net it will ask dns1.stabletransit.com for the test.mydoin.net IP, not your server, and stabletransit doesn't know anything about test.</p>\n\n<p>You have two options:</p>\n\n<p>1) The sensible and easy one. Forget about running your dns server and just add test.mydomain.net to dns1.stabletransit.com. There is likely some option to do it where you bougth the domain.</p>\n\n<p>2) The geek way, great for learning. Delegate your dns to your own server, learn all about dns, find some secondaries (your ISP will likely do it) and have fun. You will have to read quite a lot of documentation and experiment a little. Be sure that you are able to access your domain by IP, you will need it when (not if) something goes wrong.</p>\n",

39914 | 1 | 39917 | 2011-05-04T06:01:46.770 | 6 | 4001 | <p>I am new to Unity thanks to my Natty upgrade the other day. While I like some of the new things, I would also like to reconfigure some stuff.</p>
<p>Can I change the tray apps to use different applications? I'd prefer to stay with my old applications (thunderbird, pidgin) instead of evolution and empathy. I would really like to integrate those that I use into the tray and remove the "references" to the ones that I do not use. </p>
<p>So this is 2 parts
a) how to I remove evolution/empathy from the tray (upper right, to clarify: I already removed both from the launcher)
b) how to get pidgin/thunderbird to have a tray icon again</p>
<p>Thanks for your help!</p>

39963 | 1 | 40251 | 2011-05-04T09:41:11.123 | 3 | 1858 | <p>After updating from Maverick to Natty (complete reinstalling, without saving personal information), i had issues with booting. </p>
<p>I'll try to describe:
First reboot after installation of Natty, system boot normally, had no issues, works good. But when i power off my laptop, and power on it again, i have boot problems. System seems to start, ubuntu violet colors screen, then blinking cursor in top left, and then it hangs(dont know sure if it hangs), but screen is completely black, and i had to hard reset the laptop. After first boot failing, and rebooting, every time i reboot - it shows me GRUB menu (i dont initiate it, i run itself)</p>
<p>Sometimes i had to reboot my laptop for 3 or more times, sometimes 10 times.
Sometimes it starts normal on first boot.</p>
<p>Don't know what's this, after system start, after rebooting several times, it shows no errors or kind of that.</p>
<p>Can anyone help me understand what's going on?</p>
<p><strong>In Maverick i had no issues starting the OS.</strong></p>
<p>Hardware:</p>
<ul>
<li>HP g62-a16er with i3 processor</li>
<li>ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 </li>
<li>Switchable-graphics technology (maybe this causes this issues??)</li>
</ul>
<p>PS Sorry for my english!</p>

<p>All of the instructions I've read on how to configure displaylink with ubuntu involve manually editing the xorg.conf file, but it seems like Ubuntu 11.04 with Unity handles xorg.conf differently. From what I can tell, it either does not use it or places it in a different location.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>"This action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated package sources." <em>(transliterated error message, couldn't locate English original)</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>That's because of a package from a custom old/flat Debian-style repository, which no gpg keys are available for (and I won't bug the maintainer about it). Also it was working perfectly fine with update-manager before. So I assume there was a recent change.</p>
<p>Is there are an <code>apt.conf</code> setting or an <code>update-manager</code> configuration ability to disable that check? Since it's probably not possible for a single repository, I'd rather disable <em>all</em> checks now. (Typical security outcome for nonsensical restrictions.)</p>
<p>I've worked around the issue now with a manual <code>apt-get upgrade</code> - where the signature-less repository is still a normal warning, not a fatal error. But I would prefer to have a user-friendly solution to this, and again use the update-manager update button when it pops up next time.</p>
<hr>
<p>Still unresolved. I've found out about the <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SecureApt" rel="nofollow"><code>apt-get --allow-unauthenticated</code> option</a> meanwhile. But that doesn't help me for update-manager.</p>
<pre><code> APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated "true";

<p>Adding this <a href="http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=28881" rel="nofollow"><code>apt.conf</code> setting</a> also didn't alter the behaviour.</p>

<p>I followed that site and installed php on my ubuntu 11.04. I'm using net beans 7 rc1 to develop programs. A small problem in php. as per that installation it specifies that php files should save in "/var/www" this works good i checked. </p>
<p>But prob is when using netbeans php files are defaultly saved in /home/usr/netbeansproject/... something like this so that directly i can't able to run it. Each and every time i transfered php files in /var/www to run it. I tried something to change in netbeans but i can't do that properly. Can anyone help me to change that directory either from php side or netbens. (step by step thnks guys.....)</p>

40074 | 1 | 43712 | 2011-05-04T17:28:20.653 | 5 | 1985 | <p>I've spent most of today installing Server 11.04. While I can't get network installs to work at all (different issue, I'll post a separate question/bug), when installing from the server CD, all goes well until I reboot. When the computer reboots, I'm presented with a blank screen. I can't switch to other virtual terminals, but the system is running.</p>
<p>By accident I found that if I boot with the monitor unplugged, and plug it in after the computer is booted, the login prompt displays just fine. This is a server, so there is no Xorg involved, but it seems as though it tries to display some unsupported text mode.</p>
<p>I've replicated it on two servers. One is a Dell and one is an HP. They both have onboard video, no secondary video card.</p>
<p>Any idea where to change that?</p>

40102 | 1 | null | 2011-05-04T19:17:18.240 | 1 | 816 | <p>I'm asking my question here because I can't find an answer anywhere else and the Ubuntu forums have not helped at all.</p>
<p>I am running Firefox and Ubuntu 11.04 on a Dell Dimension 9200. Everything was working fine up to the point where I opened a file in Firefox...</p>
<p>I downloaded several file using Firefox 4.01. While downloading the files Firefox opened the small Downloads browser window as is normal. I then right-clicked on a PDF file and chose Open with Okular. The file did not open. I did a right-click on the same file and chose Open Containing Folder. This failed as well.</p>
<p>The problem I now have is every time I try to open anything from the Firefox Downloads browser window it tries to open it with Okular. I also cannot right-click the file and use Open Containing Folder because it also tries to open in Okular. Everything now tries to open in Okular. What is stranger still is that now if I try to open any of my folders fro the Ubuntu Places menu (such as Home Folder, Videos, Pictures, etc.) they all try to open in Okular. None of them actually open and all I get is the following error message:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Failed to execute default file manager. Failed to execute child process " /user/bin/okular"</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Okular and Firefox. I even deleted all of the Firefox preference files and I still get this error message.</p>
<p>I am also wondering if it may be that my Kensington Exper Mouse trackball driver/software has associated all of these actions with the right-click on the mouse (that is, everything that happens with the right-click tries to open in Okular).</p>
<p>Any suggestions on how to correct this problem?</p>

<p>I think it should be like this: the first number is how long the image is (X) and the second how high it is (Y).</p>

Currently, Shotwell limits the crop ratio to a series of pre-defined sizes for printing. </p>\n\n<p>However, in the upcoming Shotwell 0.10 we've decided to remove that limitation. In the meantime, you can always right click on the photo and select Open With External Editor to perform the crop in another program.</p>\n",
