I was surfing with Opera (latest version & Ubuntu 14.04LTS) and suddenly new tabs started opening at random times. I investigated further and discovered it happens on mouse clicks, left or right,...
It's fine; just thought I'd mention it. Thanks!
No, it's fine. Just thought I'd mention it. Thanks again!
That seems to have fixed it, thanks. One weird thing, though; when she first logs on in the morning, it immediately pops up with the time remaining from the day before. Yesterday, it said she had 2...
I, the administrator, do have an icon; my daughter does not. We both use Gnome (Metacity).
First, thanks so much for reviving Timekpr!
My daughter isn't getting any popup warnings that her time is running out. She got quite upset when she lost about an hour of work on a paint project....

Never mind; I figured it out myself. file-roller is in /usr/bin. Thanks for the help.
When I click on a zip, rar, tarball, etc., they do not open in the archive manager (I assume it's still file roller). And right-click does not give it as an option, only something called...
Yes, under Software Sources | Updates | "Automatically check for updates" the options are "Daily, Every two days, Weekly, Every two weeks, and Never." I have mine set to Never (which works), because...
I think I've had this problem in every version of Ubuntu I've run (starting 5 years ago with 9.04). I set the Software Updates to "Weekly" or "Every 2 weeks" and it still wants to update every single...
