On 13.04 the GWT designer is not working on Eclipse 4.2 and Eclipse 3.7. If I want to switch in the design-mode after executing Workaround 2 from this page, Eclipse crashes and is closing automatically.
I asked this question for 12.10, where it works for my answer on 12.10. I tested both answers from this question and none is working on 13.04.
The GWT Desinger is not working on Ubuntu 12.10. It worked on Ubuntu 12.04. I installed the Eclipse Plugin as described on the GWT Homepate If I want to open the Design-View (for an xml-GWT-File), Eclipse crashes (prompt closing of the application).
I found this two workarounds for which are for 12.04 (but on 12.04 i did not need this to get it working - it worked out of the box for me). I tried them on my 12.10 Ubuntu but they are not working. But I have to say that I can't find the "Use WebKit for rendering GWT UI (if available)"-Flag.
What can I do to get the GWT Designer working? I tested it successfully again on a 12.04 Ubuntu VMware image. If I don't get a solution, I have to downgrade my Ubuntu to 12.04 again.
On Ubuntu 12.04 my Sony Vaio VPCSE with Intel® HD Graphics 3000 and AMD Radeon™ HD 6630M worked fine with the Catalyst Control Center version 12.6. Also the switching between integrated and discrete graphic card was working.
In both cases, I followed this tutorial.
But it is not working on Ubuntu 12.10.
I tested the tutorial with the Catalyst Control Center from the Ubuntu Software Center, the version 12.8 and version 12.9. Always the same problem: After installation process I am able to boot in the login-screen. But after entering the password for my username, only the background-image appears. Unity seems not to be starting. I am only able to reach the context-menu by right clicking the mouse button.
I also tried his fix, but is also does not work for me.
Any ideas what to do to fix this problem?
Update: Same problem on Ubuntu 13.04!
Update: Solution for 13.04 ist not working on Ubuntu 13.10!
I have a Sony VAIO VPCSE2L9E and want do disable the integrated GPU. I want to install the fglrx packages to use the full GPU power of my AMD Radeon HD 6630M. Here is the link for the technical data of the notebook: Sony homepage for VPCSE
How can I do this? Is there a way to blacklist the integrated GPU on startup or is there an other solution for my problem?
For the Ubuntu App Showdown I created a Ubuntu-App-Showdown-Participation-Details.txt-File and uploaded it correctly on "My Apps" to participate the Ubuntu App Showdown - Contest. Now I saw, that my .txt-file was changed by someone, because there is a false name and PPA. The txt-file contains an other participant which is listed in app#122 with the app-name "Variety" on Swhodown Apps. The correct app should be my app#38 "Interest Calculation" for my app you can find on My app link. I posted this in the Feedback-section but I am not sure if somewone reads this becauseI got no answers of my other questions, I posted there more than one week ago. I don't want to be rejected from the contest, because someone has updated my .txt-file. The correct content for the .txt-file is also listed in the Feedback-section of my app. This is the copy of original text I uploaded, when I created the app-entry in the developer portal.
Is it allowed to make changes, like bug fixes after the deadline 09.07.2012 of the apps which are hosted on Launchpad for the Ubuntu App Showdown? I did not updated anything with
quickly release
or
quickly submitubuntu
because I don't want to be disqualified for the contest.
I think it would be better to to allow (only) bug fixes, because I think the users of the apps would like to have a high quality software, with no bugs, available in the Ubuntu Software Center.
I want to upload my quickly project for the Ubuntu App Showdown. I signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct successfully and created a project "interest-calculation" on my Launchpad-Portal.
When I enter in my project-folder the following command:
quickly share
I get the following error-output:
Lade Launchpad-Einstellungen
Erfolgreich mit Launchpad verbunden
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/quickly/templates/ubuntu-application/share.py", line 127, in <module>
print(_("%s does not exist. Please create it on launchpad if you want to push a package to it. %s has the following ppas available:") % (e, ppa_user.name))
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 7: ordinal not in range(128)
FEHLER: Befehl share fehlgeschlagen

What should I do? I am ready with coding but without uploading the project to Launchpad I can't participate the Ubuntu App Showdown.
I also tried:
quickly submitubuntu
After that I will be asked for the project (witch has the same name on Launchpad as on my filesystem "interest-calculation".
Lade Launchpad-Einstellungen
Erfolgreich mit Launchpad verbunden
No Launchpad project set, leave blank to abort.
Launchpad project name: interest-calculation
Kein Projekt gefunden, leave blank to abort, 0 for another search.
I also created a "dput.cf" on my home-dir with the following input:
[ppa]
fqdn = ppa.launchpad.net
method = ftp
incoming = ~reg-mlux/ppa/ubuntu
login = anonymous
allow_unsigned_upload = 0
I found that on a video-tutorial for "Submitting your app" on the App Showdown Page.
If I create a Quickly-Project there is a default Menubar which shows the Help-Dialog(Contents - "index.page" from help/C - Folder). How can I manually show the Content-Help Dialog? There is no code in the created default-project. Background: I have more than one dialogs in my app. I want to show/reach the content-dialog in every dialog of my app and also not only from the Menubar...
If i create a quickly-project with the following command in terminal:
quickly create ubuntu-application helloworld
and then add in the HelloworldWindow.py the following lines,
import sys
import pynotify
the line "import pynotify" produces the following error-output on my system when i want to run the application with
quickly run
error-output:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gobject/constants.py:24: Warning: g_boxed_type_register_static: assertion

The application won't start.
But if I want to run the following python-application
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
import pynotify
if __name__ == "__main__":
if not pynotify.init("icon-summary-body"):
sys.exit(1)
n = pynotify.Notification(
"Notification",
"Hello notify! It works!",
"notification-message-im")
n.show()
e.g. by saving the code in a filename "notify.py", I am able to run the code with the command in terminal:
python notify.py
and the notification works fine!
What is the problem with the via quickly created python applicaton?? Why is the import not working?? I am new with quickly and python.
For the Ubuntu App Developer Showdown I need to know some basics about quickly. One really important thing is to know how the Treeview-Binding works with CouchDB. I did the Tutorial1 (rickspencer3.com/quickly-getting-started.html) which is outdated but I got it working. Then I tried to go through Tutorial2 http://rickspencer3.com/quickly-dialogs.html where I am almost done. The only thing is that the binding does not work. The source is in the following Link hosted by me (via dropbox): https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5694459/super-text.tar.gz (Maybe someone has permission to add the code here in the question - because I think this is a very good tutorial -> after finishing you are able to to a lot of things with quickly)
You need to install CouchDB in addition to quickly to run this code. And you must fill the Database with data. Enter some text and go to "File -> Save" on MenuBar and enter a Name and click OK- this adds a new record (you can do this 3 times to have some data in the database) After that here comes my problem: Now my OpenDialog does not work! Go to "File => Open" on MenuBar the created data should be shown. But this does not work like in the tutorial.
I don't know if this is the right place to ask this question, but I don't see an other way for myself to ask. And if I want to create an App in this short time for the App Developer Showdown, I need to know how this works because my App will use also a Table which shows columns.
I tried to open a dialog like David Planella describs here (and quickly help add): Open Custom Dialog Windows (PyGTK + Quickly)
But this don't works for me. I always get the same Error-Message if I open the creadted Dialog:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'NewDialogNameDialog'
(Note: My Dialog-Name is replaced with "NewDialogNameDialog" to be more general.) I tried to test a tutorial for the Ubuntu app showdown to learn how to use quickly and python.
I can also add the whole source-code if you wish.
The title describes my problem. On Ubuntu 11.10 Multi-touch worked fine on my Apple Magic Trackpad. Now i have only "ONE-FINGER-Control". Scrolling is only possible on the right side of the pad with one finger. Three or four fingers are also not working any more (four fingers to to get the Dash or three fingers to move a window). What could I do to get this working again?? (on 12.04)
I can't install VMwarePlayer 4.0.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 64Bit. For Version 4.0.2, I found a script that I have to run to patch VMware Player for it to work on my system to properly, and after that I could install 4.0.2.
Is there an similar solution for Version 4.0.3?
I use a lot of Ubuntu-Versions with Unity. I have a question about the Lense-Type "Fonds"? There are no "Apps Available for Download" in the Ubuntu Software Center. Which benefit brings this Lense-Type??
And further - When i want to create a custom launcher, which category-type is to set in the corresponding .desktop-file? e.g.: a custom launcher for a game - the ".desktop-file" contains:
...
Categories=Game;
...
Here is the category for the correct display in unity dash under type Games: "Game" Is it "Font" for the type "Fonts"?
I have skills in Java and C#.
First I had a closer look at Java (Eclipse with Windowbuilder-Plugin). - Swing: But there is no natvie GUI-Support for GTK3 (e.g., HUD seems not to work)
Then I looked at JAVA - SWT: It is to heavy. I want do code a small app that improves the Ubuntu desktop. I don't want to ship a program with Eclipse included.
After that I found C# Mono (Monodevelop): GTK# is only for GTK2 available. A GTK3 port will come soon but is it possible to convert the program from GTK2 to GTK3 without extra adaptations? The next bad thing is, that Mono is now dropped from Ubuntu LTS 12.04. So I have no chance that my app would be a default app in an official Ubuntu live CD. (This is also a factor for me to choose a programming language).
I know there are other techs but I want to use as programming language Java or C#.
In older questions on internet i found that the magic-mouse multitouch-support should work since 11.04. Now we have 11.10 and i didn't find any news, that here is a multitouch-support planned for 12.04. Also the official touch-homepage doesn't says anything about a planned support for this device. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch/HardwareSupport
Does anyone knows more? Is there hope for multitouch-support of magic-mouse in further releases?? Does anyone knows concrete plans?
I own this mouse and it supports only: - one finger - vertical/horizontal scroll - right, left and middle - click
This mouse is very useful and it could be much more if it would be supported like the apple magic trackpad.
Is it possible do deploy google web toolkit (GWT) apps through the UBUNTU software center? I never deployed any application through the UBUNTU software center (newbie). So if yes, is there someone who can give me a short tutorial for handling this? I have nice ideas to spread the world with innovative apps and want to use the USC for this ;)
How do i get dual view (two monitors with Full-HD-resolution) for one desktop on unity with an ati card on ubuntu 11.10? on 11.04 all worked fine. Now i have the problem, that after customizing on "AMD Catalyst Control Center (Administrative)" nothing happens. And if i open it again, the standard configuration is shown again.
On Ubuntu system settings i also get a problem. There is a message that the virtual resolution is too high (the maximum for both monitors seems to be 1920*1080).
I have two monitors with the following resolution: 1920*1080. So there must be a way to get the virtual resolution for 3840*1080. Again: This worked for me on 11.04. And i customized it with "AMD Catalyst Control Center".
