Hi folks,

I am writing my first programme with gtk and as part of it, I have a Gtk::Image which is loaded as the user clicks on a TreeView item.

Loading the image is fine, but instead of...

Hi folks,

When I do certain things, like open a programme in Wine, or log in to a server using Remmina, the Unity launcher pops up in the background and the icon of active programme starts...

Hi,

I recently broke my desktop environment. I had installed e16 and although I reverted to the pure GNOME option at login, it continued to use e16's window manager. When I uninstalled e16, no...

The solution is to run metacity from the terminal. I'm going to post separately about how to make that happen automatically.

Hi,

I've just had enough of Enlightenment e16, so I uninstalled it. Now my window borders have disappeared and I can only input to one window - the first one I opened. If I want to input to...

Cheers Gillingham, that did the trick.

Hi,

I'm using Audacious as my MP3 player, because I just can't take Rhythmbox any longer.

I want to set Audacious as the default player for MP3s and Oggs, but I don't seem to be able to. When...

Cheers guys, very useful. Why can you not get it from the Ubuntu reps any more though?

My connection details in Ubuntu are showing what they do in Windows XP too, but I can't get any web connection for example, and I can't ping the modem.

Hi,

I've just moved house and I've got a D-Link DSL-320T, owned by the other housemates.

It works fine in Windows, but it's a bit strange, because if you log onto the modem (192.168.1.1) in a...

I know this an old thread but:

My number 1 programming problem is that I struggle to practice in a way which actually teaches me to programme. I learned C and C++ several years ago, but...

I have this problem too. I think that it's because ScummVM is having trouble finding the MIDI device.

I've being programming tiny bits and bobs for absolutely ages - ten years or so. And I still don't know anything about compilation. If you read a tutorial on doing this, or doing that, in C or C++,...

It's build-essential - no s! :-D

There doesn't appear to be a build-essentials
