Suddenly, putting system to sleep started failing, here is the entire /var/log/syslog https://gist.github.com/umpirsky/f3e1a8d32217ad4b8fb3186124866d69
I disabled all entries in /proc/acpi/wakeup, it didn't help.
Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
Any idea why this started happening? Thanks.
By default it looks like this:
I don't like it and want it to be dark, so I add this to my ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css:
terminal-window notebook tab {
background-image: -gtk-gradient (linear, left top, left bottom,
from (shade (@fg_color, 0.92)),
color-stop (0.60, shade (@fg_color, 0.9)),
to (shade (@fg_color, 0.85)));
color: @bg_color;
}
terminal-window notebook tab:active {
background-image: -gtk-gradient (linear, left top, left bottom,
from (shade (@dark_bg_color, 1.2)),
to (shade (@dark_bg_color, 1.12)));
-unico-inner-stroke-color: alpha (shade (@dark_bg_color, 1.26), 1.0);
}
The result is:
Which is better, but active tab is not highlighted.
My reference is http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~maxb/ubuntu/trusty/ubuntu-themes/colours/view/head:/Ambiance/gtk-3.0/apps/gnome-terminal.css, but TerminalWindow .notebook tab selector does not have effect, so I changed it to terminal-window notebook tab (inspired by https://github.com/horst3180/arc-theme/blob/master/common/gtk-3.0/3.20/gtk.css#L3017, not sure why this difference in selector exists?) and it worked, but not with :active selector.
Any idea why this difference in selectors and why :active does not work?
Thanks!
Here is what I tried:

UPDATE:
I tried to install teamviewer and got similar error:
UPDATE:
I just installed fresh Ubuntu 13.04 and got same error.
UPDATE:
I installed Skype with:
sudo dpkg --force-depends -i skype-ubuntu-precise_4.2.0.11-1_i386.deb
But can't run it:
$ ll /usr/bin | grep skype
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30701056 мај 7 01:42 skype*
$ /usr/bin/skype
bash: /usr/bin/skype: No such file or directory
UPDATE:
I am able to reproduce this without installing Ubuntu, from live CD.
I have a VirtualBox virtual machine. The host machine runs Ubuntu. The guest (virtual) machine runs Windows XP.
I googled this problem, and people claim that they fixed it by changing adapter type to NAT, but there is no such option for me:
Any idea?
It didn't work either, after just switching it to NAT. Here are the current settings (with all details shown):
Here's a screenshot of the guest showing some networking information:
(Please note that this question is about how to give a VM Internet access in VirtualBox, so the presence of a picture of Windows doesn't automatically make this off-topic!)
I opened Empathy, go to accounts (F4), it takes me to "Online Accounts" where I can choose between many account types, but there is no IRC. There is face, google, twitter....but no IRC.
Am I missing something?
In Input Devices tab port is set to Line In, I change it to Front Microphone, but it always returns back to Line In after restart.
How can I change it permanently?
I guess the reason is that when system boots, mic is not plugged in front, so it switch it to back by default.

I need to access VPN from my Ubuntu 12.04.
I see that there is VPN connections > Configure VPN in network manager, but it asks for username and password.
All I have is some .crt, .csr, .key, .ovpn files, which are suited for some windows client.
I'm really newbie with VPN.
I also found this blog post. Is that a way to go?
This context menu:
is available on right click only if window is not maximized.
Is there a way to do this when window is maximized?
I followed composer manual (global installation of composer (manual)) to install composer on Ubuntu.
$ ll /usr/local/bin/
total 4760
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2012-03-29 08:29 ./
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 2011-04-26 00:50 ../
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 410324 2012-03-29 08:28 composer.phar
Other scripts from /usr/local/bin/ works, but composer gives:
$php composer.phar update
Could not open input file: composer.phar
It works only if I enter absolute path to composer.phar.
How to fix this?
Quickly generated a gpg key for me:
quickly share
Get Launchpad Settings
The authorization page:
(https://launchpad.net/+authorize-token?oauth_token=*******&allow_permission=DESKTOP_INTEGRATION)
should be opening in your browser. Use your browser to authorize
this program to access Launchpad on your behalf.
Waiting to hear from Launchpad about your decision...
Launchpad connection is ok
It seems you don't have a gpg key on your computer. Do you want to create one (this may take a while)? y/[n]: y
Not enough random bytes available. Please do some other work to give
the OS a chance to collect more entropy! (Need 282 more bytes)

gpg: key **** marked as ultimately trusted
gpg: checking the trustdb
gpg: 3 marginal(s) needed, 1 complete(s) needed, PGP trust model
gpg: depth: 0 valid: 1 signed: 0 trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 1u
Your gpg key has been create. You have to upload it to Launchpad. Guidance is provided in Launchpad help. Press any key once done
But when I paste fingerprint to lauchpad, it says:
Launchpad could not import your OpenPGP key
Did you enter your complete fingerprint correctly? (Help with fingerprints) Is your key in the Ubuntu keyserver yet? You may have to wait between ten minutes (if you pushed directly to the Ubuntu key server) and one hour (if you pushed your key to another server). (Help with publishing keys)
I tried with both, fingerprint from Passwords and keys (gui) and one from gpg --fingerprint and still same error. I noticed one from gui have one blank space more then one pasted from CLI. I waited more then 16 hours, but still getting same error?
Any idea?
I want to create attention appindicator icon for my application. They are usually blue color, but I need exact color code in order to make it integrate in unity well. I found nothing on http://unity.ubuntu.com/projects/appindicators/.
So, I need exact colors for dark (Radience), light (Ambiance) and attention (blue).
Can someone help?
There must be some guidline for creating this icons.
I'm using keyring library to store passwords in my python app.
import keyring
keyring.set_password('My namespace', username, password)
keyring.get_password('My namespace', username)
And this works very well.
I assume that passwords are safe in keyring, they are encrypted. But, since I can get them by username, what prevents other apps to do the same?
Isn't that a security risk, or am I missing something?
Whn I try to play youtube video in Totem I get this error:
No supported stream was found. You might need to allow more transport protocols or may otherwise be missing the right GStreamer RTSP extension plugin.
I have all Totem plugins installed including

GStreamer extra plugins
Any idea?
Is there a keyboard shortcut available to shutdown the computer?
I know I can use the Power button, but I would like to be able to it from the keyboard.
If such a shortcut does not exist already, how do I set one?

In previous question I asked how to disable zeitgeist Disabling Zeitgeist.
After I removed all packages, I was unable to find anything via unity launcher! Shortcuts to media apps, internet apps...dont work.
Reinstalling zeitgeist didnt help.
Any idea how to recover unity?
I have zeitgeist daemon always in processes. I don't see the point of this zeitgeist, it logs my activity. i removed it from startup programs, but it is still there.
Can I uninstall this package? Why do I need it at all?
I have 1GB of RAM, and when I run NetBeans and Firefox, they get about 300MB of RAM. At some point, the system becomes very slow, probably 100 times slower than normal, switching windows (Alt+Tab) becomes a huge task and the computer is practically useless. This is probably the moment when it starts to swap.
Two questions:
On another computer with 4GB of RAM I have no problems.
Update: I added 2GB of RAM, now I have 3GB. Anyone who wants to use heavy apps with 1GB on Unity, I don't think it's going to work. Works fine on an empty desktop :)
I have installed NetBeans 7.0 manually, because only 6.9 is available in Ubuntu Software Center.
I tried to keep it in launcher, but after system restart it's gone.
How can I permanently add it?
