40453 | 1 | 40470 | 2011-05-05T18:47:15.470 | 2 | 296 | <p>A quick question - would appreciate a quick answer - is there a way to install packages to a system on HDD from a USB/CD/DVD live environment?</p>
<p><strong>EDIT</strong></p>
<p>Though I would love a quick answer, it doesn't necessarily have to be simple, if the only workable solution is possibly a little difficult/complicated. I'm thinking of somehow changing the target directory of <code>dpkg</code> to the hard disk instead of the live environment or something. Of course, I <em>don't know</em> how to do that or even if it's possible, hence the question. Hope my input helps me get help.</p>

40519 | 1 | 40525 | 2011-05-05T21:58:34.763 | 1 | 238 | <p>I've been unsuccessful with a Natty upgrade, in this sense: I'm unable to use anything but a Metacity theme ("Ubuntu Classic (No effects)"). So I lost all my Compiz effects, the most valuable of which, for me, was the grid layout tool. I think the problem is confused Radeon/ATI driver issues -- fglrx was dead on arrival with the update, and falling back to the generic ATI driver gets me Metacity but not Compiz.</p>
<p>I'm now considering preserving my /home directory and doing a clean install of Natty on my system drive. Unity works decently well on a USB drive boot -- not that I'm especially fond of it, but I want to give it a fair shake. Presumably it will work with a clean install.</p>
<p>But I'm frankly concerned about all the hidden gnome and X configuration files in my restored home directory. When I plop my old homedir onto a new 11.04 system install with all my old packages, what's going to happen?</p>

I'm not necessarily looking for an answer targeted at this program but more at scripting in general.<br>

40541 | 1 | 41378 | 2011-05-05T22:52:12.813 | 4 | 6969 | <p>There are at least two ways to configure GDM I know of:</p>
<ol>
<li>is the <code>/etc/gdm/custom.conf</code> file that can be either hand edited or edited throu GUI gdmsetup. Autologin and timed login are configured here.</li>
<li>are the gconf schemas under /apps/gdm/ Those can be edite with gconf-editor running either as root or as a normal user. I guess editing it as a casual user does not have any impact since GDM runs as root. Sound among other things can be turned off here.</li>
</ol>
<p>Are there any other ways? GDM refuses to let me autologin (on a fresh Natty install) (it does not ask for password, it merely wants that I select myself as a user at the login screen even though I am the only user on this computer).</p>
<p>Other interesting thing is that even if I purge GDM, its settings (including the custom.conf) do not change. Therefore there seems no way to reset GDM's settings.</p>
<p>BTW: my custom.conf is as follows (drew is my user):</p>
<pre><code>[daemon]
TimedLoginEnable=false
AutomaticLoginEnable=true
TimedLogin=drew
AutomaticLogin=drew
TimedLoginDelay=1
DefaultSession=gnome
</code></pre>

Upgraded to (reinstalled) Ubuntu 11.04.</p>
<p>Is there any way the applications can use something that i set in nautilus, or it's just a wrong idea about the usage?</p>
<p>In nautilus the file association works great, easy, handy and so on...</p>
<p>My first problem was when installed chromium. Downloaded a file, a popup ask for assocation, set nautilus. And it only opens folder, for any file show an error: it is not a direcrory. Ok, so i thought Google chrome changed, because previously .pdf open acrobat,.torrent open vuze and so on. But now i have to open nautilus on download folder with it, than select and open the preferable application by manually and can't use any automatism i used to.</p>
<p>Then in gnome commander , it not followed the default association i set in nautilus. Ok maybe it is commander fault. use it's own.</p>
<p>Then in calibre, the "read" use again this default "can't open its not a directory" error</p>
<p>So it's seems to me the applications not using well this file associations or i really don't understand the aim of file associations system (mime,.desktop files,...)</p>
<p>If there is no solution i think i have to search some program (if any exist's) which can identify and launch application and set as default instead nautilus.</p>

<p>So I removed it in favor of a new Nvidia card. During the initial boot-up before I could install the Nvidia drivers, I got a message that said "Your hardware can not support Unity, so you will be loaded into Classic Ubuntu".</p>
<p>Since then I've installed the official Nvidia drivers and everything is running great, but I can't get Unity to restart.</p>
<p>Every time I reboot or login / logout I still get Gnome, even when I'm picking "Ubuntu" from the login menu.</p>
<p>Any suggestions?</p>

"body": "<p>(Firstly, you need a semicolon before the last <code>}</code> in order for this to be valid C; the semicolon should be thought of as terminating statements in C, rather than as separating statements. Smart automatic indentation may not work properly unless you add that semicolon.)</p>\n\n<p>Vim's <code>=</code> command (<code>:help =</code>) can be used to run code through an automatic indentation program, though it requires some configuration. The basic idea is that you set the <code>equalprg</code> option (<code>:help 'equalprg'</code>) to a program that applies the indentation you want, and then use <code>=</code> in command mode to run it. <code>=</code> works like other Vim motion-based commands such as <code>d</code> and <code>y</code>; for example, <code>==</code> indents the current line, <code>=ap</code> indents a paragraph, or you can use a visual range: <code>ggVG=</code> indents the whole file.</p>\n\n<p>Now, by default, <code>equalprg</code> is set to the empty string, which only does basic per-line indentation built into Vim. To do the kind of thing you're asking for, the best tool for the job is <code>indent</code>:</p>\n\n<p><a href=\"http://packages.ubuntu.com/indent\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer\">indent</a> <a href=\"http://apt.ubuntu.com/p/indent\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer\"><img src=\"https://hostmar.co/software-large\" alt=\"Install indent\"></a></p>\n\n<p><code>indent</code> has a vast array of options for various indentation styles; by default it uses the GNU coding style, but you'll probably want to customise it to suit your project's preferences. See\n<a href=\"http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/natty/en/man1/indent.1.html\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer\">man indent</a> for details. To include spaces in the value of <code>equalprg</code>, you need to quote them with a backslash, so for example if you wanted to use K&R indentation style you would use <code>:set equalprg=indent\\ -kr</code>.</p>\n\n<p>You can also have the '=' command choose the appropriate indentation based on the file type, by using <code>:filetype indent on</code> - type <code>:help filetype</code> within vim for more info.</p>\n\n<p><code>:set autoindent</code> will tell vim to indent as you type. Adding either of these commands (minus the leading ':') to your ~/.vimrc file will make them permanent.</p>\n",

40569 | 1 | null | 2011-05-06T02:02:21.087 | 5 | 1108 | <p>After upgrading to Natty and the 2.6.38-8 kernel I could no longer obtain the 1920x1080 resolution available in Maverick with 2.6.35-22. In fact the boot occasionally hung. However, after selecting the remaining 2.6.35-22 kernel, the high resolution was available. </p>
<p>I then made the mistake of completely reinstalling, but could never get the higher resolutions with 2.6.38-8, no matter what I did. e.g. trying the nvidia proprietary driver, creating an xorg.conf. Even from the command line using</p>
<pre><code>xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_60.00" 173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576 1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode DVI-I-1 1920x1080_60.00
xrandr --output DVI-I-1 --mode 1920x1080_60.00
</code></pre>
<p>all I would get would be a blank screen and the monitor reporting no input. (Low resolutions displayed fine with xrandr.) I could actually add the 1920x1080 to the already existing probe-reported resolutions in the pool of available resolutions, but choosing it would give the blank screen. In the end I installed the 2.6.35-22 kernel again. The high resolution is back.</p>
<p>For a while there, staying up all night and trying many things, I thought that a new video board or monitor might be needed, but deep down, I knew that they were both OK.</p>
<p>My question is - "Is this some bug involving the latest kernel, that will go away, or if this persists in future kernels, is there a way to make sure that I can keep my native resolution?"</p>

I asked around on #ubuntu on IRC, and a user suggests it might be a bug with the nVidia card. (I assume it would be the nVidia driver that I used with 10.10 with the Intel integrated graphics).</p>
<p>Anybody has any input on how to deal with this issue? I could bear with it (since I'm just using Metacity). If there is no absolute way, then my last resort would be to downgrade to 10.10.</p>

40592 | 1 | null | 2011-05-06T05:38:09.007 | 5 | 1820 | <p>So I currently have a dual-ati video card setup on my laptop. A low-power one and a high power one.</p>
<p>In windows 7 the drivers switch video cards when on external vs internal power. Also one of the video cards contains an HDMI output which I would like to use as it lets me plug in my monitor.</p>
<p>So is there an easy way to configure this?</p>
<p>Video Cards: </p>
<ul>
<li>Radeon HD 4200 - Low power</li>
<li>Radeon HD 5600 - High power (contains the HDMI output)</li>
</ul>
<p>Potential acceptable solutions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Deactivate low power card and use high power only. Worse battery life but whatever. However I don't want this done in BIOS since I want the good behavior in windows when dual booting.</li>
<li>Get low power card working without high power card BUT HDMI output needs to work so I can plug monitor in.</li>
</ul>
<p>Some progress:</p>
<p><code>aticonfig --adapter=all --initial</code> finds both adapters after restart. The problem is X cannot start. It goes to black screen and must be restarted.</p>
<p><code>aticonfig --list-adapters</code> only shows one adapter in a working config. The undesirable</p>
<p>configuring the high power adapter leads to same x not loading as --adapter=all</p>

<p>Would like to figure out how to change the settings for screensavers without completely switching to <code>xscreensaver</code>.</p>
<p>I read somewhere that it doesn't play as nicely with some of gnome's features like screen locking. I also read some guide that recommended installing <code>xscreensaver</code> and configuring your screen saver settings there and apparently they were supposed to be used by <code>gnome-screensaver</code> as well. But that did not work for me.</p>

Unfortunately, there seems to be no public design discussion between <a href=\"https://launchpad.net/~otto-chaotic\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer\">Otto Greenslade</a> (Visual Design Lead) and <a href=\"https://launchpad.net/~daniel-p-fore\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer\">Daniel Fore</a> (Artist). I couldn't find any IRC logs between chaotic and DanRabbit (their handles). Maybe someone else's IRC searching is better than mine?</p>\n\n<h2>Changing The Icons</h2>\n\n<p>If you don't like the icon, try this command to see what file operations icons the other themes on your system provide.</p>\n\n<pre><code>find /usr/share/icons -name \"system-file-manager-panel.*\" | sed -e\"s/.*/<img src=\\\"file:\\/\\/&\\\" alt=\\\"&\\\" \\/>&<p\\/>/\" > ~/icons.html\nxdg-open ~/icons.html\n</code></pre>\n\n<p>I have <a href=\"http://danrabbit.deviantart.com/art/elementary-Icons-65437279\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer\">elementary</a> and <a href=\"http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Faenza?content=128143\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer\">faenza</a> installed, but there still aren't any good options.</p>\n\n<p>So what I did was use the fog icon from ubuntu-mono-dark. It looks like three squiggly lines and I think that represents motion (moving files) better than a pointer:</p>\n\n<p><img src=\"https://i.stack.imgur.com/1IyMn.png\" alt=\"weather-fog.svg from ubuntu-mono-light (since that should show up better on AU's light background)\"></p>\n\n<p>Then you can create your own lightweight theme (as <a href=\"https://askubuntu.com/questions/39336/how-can-i-change-which-icon-an-applet-uses/40548#40548\">I described here</a>) that replaces the icon you dislike with your preferred icon. In my example I'm using weather-fog.svg.</p>\n\n<pre><code># Create a new theme containing the icon we want\nmkdir -p ~/.icons/mono-seth/actions/scalable\nln -s /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/status/16/weather-fog.svg ~/.icons/mono-seth/actions/scalable/.\n# Copy the theme config and modify it for our new theme\ncp /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/index.theme ~/.icons/mono-seth/.\nsed -i -e \"s/Name=ubuntu-mono-dark/Name=mono-seth/g\" ~/.icons/mono-seth/index.theme\nsed -i -e \"s/Inherits=/Inherits=ubuntu-mono-dark,/g\" ~/.icons/mono-seth/index.theme\n</code></pre>\n\n<p>Now open Appearance and change your icon theme to mono-seth. (If your preferred icon theme is not ubuntu-mono-dark, change <code>Inherits=ubuntu-mono-dark</code> to <code>Inherits=your-theme-here</code>. Make sure the name matches one of the themes in <code>/usr/share/icons</code> or <code>~/.icons</code>.)</p>\n",

Even though the mute light stays on, if you start playing a piece of music or a sound it will play and the mute light will go off for the duration of the sound and then come back on immediately after the sound has finished. Pressing the mute button on and off only turns the light off for less than a second, it will immediately come back on again. The mute light will go off while I am adjusting the volume but will come back on no matter where I put the volume bar. While it doesn't affect usability it is rather annoying.</p>

40677 | 1 | 40695 | 2011-05-06T10:10:44.163 | 3 | 1044 | <p>At the moment I am running Kubuntu Lucid LTS on my desktop and have some relatively free time and was considering upgrading to Natty.</p>
<p>My biggest concern (as usual) is whether I will be able to use my video card in the way its configured now, preferably without hours of configuration pain. The pain mainly comes from me having two monitors and a single continuous desktop. One monitor is used in landscape and another in picture mode (rotated 90 degrees clockwise), both having different resolutions.</p>
<p>I remember spending hours of getting it configured when installing Lucid originally as I had to tweak <code>xorg.conf</code> settings manually dozens of times, <code>randr</code> didn't work, etc. etc. I finally ended up using closed source driver as it was the only one being able to achieve the setup. I also remember my colleague installing Maverick on the next week after the release; he couldn't get it working with closed source nvidia drivers because newer Xorg libs weren't supported (so he had to use Xorg libs from Lucid) and the open source drivers couldn't get the job done. Royal pain stories like this have left me with a very low expectations for Linux on desktop in general and new Ubuntu releases in particular.</p>
<p>I personally don't care which drivers to use as long as I can get the monitor setup working (no need for any 3D acceleration, it's my working machine). I have spent some time looking at forums/help/AskUbuntu, but I cannot find any decent page confirming whether Natty can achieve my desired setup as the noise/information rate is too high.</p>
<p>My video card is (quote from <code>lspci -vvv</code>):</p>

<p>although I have seen similar questions and the hint to change it in ccsm under general options, I find it still taking way to long.

<p>Ok so after some playing around I found a GUI way to setup Internet Connection Sharing in ubuntu 11.04(Natty), Remembering that I am using gnome 3.</p>
<p>We have the <em>network Manager Applet</em> up top<br>
<img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/PBAq4.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
<p><em>Right click</em> and choose <em>edit connections</em><br>
<img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/whvFI.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
<p>Under the <em>Wired</em> tab highlight your wired connection and click <em>Edit...</em>
<img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/iA7U4.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
<p>Under the <em>IPV4</em> tab in the <em>Method</em> dropdown select <em>Shared to other computers</em>.
<img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/BSIIZ.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
<p>Finally <strong>restart your computer</strong>.<br>
Set your xbox to automatic connection settings.</p>
<h2>The new question...</h2>
<p>So after getting it working the only issue is that I have a strict NAT type.</p>
<p>I was wondering if anyone could help me fix that?
My settings are</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Router is 192.168.1.1 </p>
<p>Wireless card is:
- IP: 192.168.1.3 (static)<br>
- Broadcast: 192.168.1.255<br>
- Subnet: 255.255.255.0<br>
- DNS: 192.168.1.1 </p>
<p>The wired network sets itself as:<br>
- IP: 10.42.43.1<br>
- Broadcast: 10.42.43.255<br>
- Subnet: 255.255.255.0 </p>
<p>The xbox sets itself as:<br>

<p>I am wanting to use ICS in ubuntu (Natty) for the xbox 360.</p>
<p>I am struggling to find out a step by step guide to do it.</p>
<p>Basically The setup is</p>
<p>Modem -> router (ip 192.168.1.1) -> laptop (via wifi (static ip 192.168.1.3)) -> xbox (via ethernet).</p>
<p>For some reason it seems that my connections are also named a bit funny.</p>
<p>It seems that my wifi connection is eth1 and my wired is eth0.</p>
<p>So a step by step guide of how to configure this is what I am after.</p>

40697 | 1 | 56462 | 2011-05-06T11:51:12.827 | 1 | 4199 | <p>I have installed ATI Catalyst 11.5 driver (fglrx) on my laptop with Ubuntu 11.04 and switchable-graphics technology (ATI Mobility Radeon HD5470). Everything seems ok, <code>fglrxinfo</code> shows my discrete video card working, <code>glxgears</code> shows nearly 2000fps, Unity works, no graphical problems etc. But when i try to play games, i.e. Heroes Of Newerth (it has native linux client), my display are all full of graphical blinking artifacts, I think you what I am talking about.</p>
<p>How can I fix this?</p>
<p><strong>Added later:</strong>
Also I noticed, that when I playing video online via flash player it works good, but when I expand it to full screen, it begins to flash and other annoying artifacts</p>
<p><strong>Added a bit later:</strong>
The problem is any application(video, game, etc.) in Fullscreen mode. I tried to check off "Full Screen Mode" in game, and there were no artifacts at all, but have some periodic lags</p>

<p>Ok, I totally misunderstood the situation, though it still comes down to a problem I think should be solved by a symlink. The dbus directory referred to in the <code>#include</code> statement is a deeper level directory under <code>/usr/include/dbus-1.0/</code>. The real problem is that the file <code>dbus-arch-deps.h</code> appears to be missing, but is actually stored in the weird location <code>/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dbus-1.0/include/dbus/</code> . So now, why doesn't Ubuntu provide a symlink to this in <code>/usr/include/dbus-1.0/dbus</code>, or actually store it there?</p>

<p>Hi</p>
<p>I just upgraded to Natty and I was giving a sporting chance to Unity. There a lot of things I liked about it (ease of search, zooming, ...) but the issue that made me switch to "classic" is that eclipse was just showing 1 of the 10 menus (Windows) Any way I can coax Unity to show all ten of them?</p>
