I have PhpStorm on my PC, to launch it I have to go to phpstorm/bin/ and launch phpstorm.sh, how can I pin this to launcher so that I dont have to go into folders every time?
In 12.04 Ubuntu when I change wallpaper only left bar changes.
If I set white wallpaper it gets pretty ugly:
While for other colors it's okay:
In Ubuntu 12.10 I remember that top panel colors changes aswell. How do I make it change in Ubuntu 12.04 aswell? (I had to go from 12.10 to 12.04 ubuntu since it didnt have drivers for my video adapter, and I was too dumb to install them properly since it's Nvidia).
Questions:
- Is top panel color changing only in 12.10?
- Why is left panel grey and not-matching at all?
Thanks!
How do I backup my system so that if I do backup today, tomorrow when I recover it it's totally the same as yesterday? I mostly care bout system itself, programs and documents are not that important but still would be nice to keep programs+settings for them. I need it in case I do something dumb: purge needed package, mess up linux-headers, repository, tweak registry and fail and so on.
Examples:
- messed up with XConf and it's not working.
- used gconf-editor, did some changes and forgot where I did them, gconf-editor doesn't have undo or "don't save" feature, so I am wondering what the hell did I change?
and so on. - and so on, one more thousand stupid mistakes of a guy who is noob at Ubuntu but likes it and wants to become pro :)
I want my laptop to wake up from suspended mode in the morning and alarm me to wake up using my mp3 file. How do I do it?
I tried apmsleep, but it doesn't work cause my PC doesnt have "suspend to RAM" feature in BIOS. What can I do? Thanks!
I installed LAMP using
sudo tasksel install lamp-server
I configured PhpStorm to use /var/www folder as root deployment folder, also specified http://localhost as web-server root url:
When I deploy my index.html page with "helloworld" to my server - page is not found, neither is it in /var/www. Why?
I am newbie to Ubuntu, I got into it 2 weeks ago and I reinstalled it like 10+ times already.
In most cases Ubuntu graphic interface wont show up, just command line.
Few times I had "low graphic settings" error.
All of this happens mostly when I decide to remove useless repository, or install-remove some programs, or remove some pre-installed programs like Rhytmbox or Solitaire, which definitely shouldn't give any problems, but than baah - and my Ubunt wont load.
I think that good way to keep system alive is never to uninstall anything. But sometimes when I install some program from some repository, and I dont need it - I want to remove repository aswell and again my Ubuntu gets destroyed.
How can I keep my system clean yet working?
What should I do?
Should I maybe use some backup-program also? How can I organize my files/system so that I dont have to reinstall it all every time I mess something?
Thanks alot!
P.S.: For example right now I installed LAMP using taskel. Something went wrong, mySQL didn't get installed, so I want to remove it all and retry. how do I do it properly?
Or, say, JDE. I installed Oracle 7 JDE since I needed it for PhpStorm, I failed to install it since some repository didnt exist. Next time failed version installed. After finally removing old stuff and installing Oracle 7 it worked, than I rebooted and bah - again my system wont load. What am I doing wrong? Am I lost for this world? :)
For example, I do
cd Music
dir
and get
123456789.mp3
qweerkrtrkgljdjfkdjfdkf.mp3
a.mp3
b.mp3
blabla.mp3
how do I delete, say, files qweerkrtrkgljdjfkdjfdkf.mp3 and blabla.mp3 with least effort?
UPD: Key idea is that file names can be long so I actually dont want to type them.
I want to launch Clementine every time I start my PC, and I want it to be minimised (only tray icon) and playing music. I added it to Startup Applications. What do I do next?
