I want to remove all unitiy scopes, that may access the internet completely and permanently form a pool of many Ubuntu 13.10 machines. How to do that?
After the recent upgrade to 12, I notice permanent connections to canonical servers.
Running netstat -tp
gives:
Foreign Address State PID/Program name
mulberry.canonical:http CLOSE_WAIT 6537/ubuntu-geoip-p
alkes.canonical.co:http CLOSE_WAIT 6667/python
alkes.canonical.co:http CLOSE_WAIT 6667/python
Why are there permanent connections and how could I stop this behavior?
And if this is intentional, who is responsible?
I would like to understand why this was done because to me it seems like a bad idea.
I recently installed 12.04, and have started to to fiddle around with lenses. I've installed two scopes for the music lens: Spotify and Grooveshark.
It seems to me that the current scope display order is the alphabetical order of the scope names? When doing a search, the Grooveshark hits are always presented above Spotify's.
Is it possible to sort/order/prioritize the presentation of scopes in some way?
I use MPD, along with the GUI client Sonata to play all my music. It works quite well, but none of my music shows up in the music lens (since I don't use Banshee or Rhythmbox, it's just empty). Has anyone created an MPD scope for the music lens so that my music would show up? I thought I read in some now-forgotten place that someone was working on one.
Thanks!
I am looking for a tutorial on writing a scope for simple search from a website. The tutorial at Ubuntu wiki is very complex.
If somebody can explain me the steps to write a scope in a simplest way, that would be very helpful.
