Hi,

Somewhere on this forum i found a command which enable users to get rid off that ugly indicator on the right top side of the screen. I really hate that and with that command i could get rid of it. But now i can't find that command anymore.

Someone out there helping me out here? Many thanks in advance!

Hi. Here's how you can remove things. To remove an indicator, use this command in terminal:


sudo apt-get remove indicator-something

Where something is the indicator you want gone. To get it back:


sudo apt-get install indicator-something

Here's a list of some indicators:

indicator-session (session, status and user stuff)
indicator-messages (IM and email stuff)
indicator-power (power state)
indicator-network (network manager)
indicator-sound (sound)
indicator-datetime (a simple clock)

There's probably a bunch more.

Thanks for your input, but that's not what i'm looking for. It's a command which moves a whole directory or parts of a directory to my home folder.

something like: sudo mv /***/*** ~/

Found it! Did a good search on this forum and found what i'm looking for:


sudo mv /usr/lib/notify-osd .

This does the tric!
