I have found that one of my favorite text editors for programming is Geany, however the default color scheme is very bright and hurts my eyes when programming for awhile. There are other color schemes available for Geany but no clear way for installing and using them. Anyone have an idea?
I am making a custom distribution, and have a question about the Ubuntu Logo with 5 dots displayed when booting up.
The Ubuntu-Logo-Script in the /lib/plymouth/themes/ubuntutext folder has the word Ubuntu and beneath that 5 progressing 'dots'. Is it possible to remove the progress bar dots, and instead replace it with a faded Ubuntu logo, that gradually colors up to full?
I would like to set my Nautilus "Default view" to List globally on my PC.
Is this possible, if so, how do I achieve this?
I have had a couple of occasions where I was unable to remember the IP address for a given system but was, at the time, able to connect using the hostname. As an example, just now I wanted to set up port forwarding on my router and couldn't remember the IP for the target system.
I am wondering if it is possible to add the system's IP address to the welcome message that gets displayed on an SSH connection.
The default welcome message that I am trying to modify, in case that term is ambiguous, is"
Linux [hostname] 2.6.35-32-generic #64-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 3 00:47:07 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Ubuntu 10.10
Welcome to Ubuntu!

Somewhere in there I think I'd like to add the IP address of the system I just logged in to. Any suggestions? Other than trading in my brain for a newer model with more RAM?
This is my desktop, the icon is too big.
I tried to use
gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.desktop font "Ubuntu 9"
but the it changes only font size of the desktop icons.
I tried to use Compiz, Advance Settings and Configuration Editor but they just have font size option, not icon size option.
How to change the desktop icon size?
