System utilities such as ls don't need to have the full path typed before executing them. However, to execute Netbeans, I have to type /home/chris/netbeans-7.0.1/bin/netbeans. How can I make it so that I only have to type netbeans?
Suppose I have an alias in the bash shell. Is there a simple command to print out what command the alias will run?
My italics are displaying weirdly in a number of programs, including Firefox, Chrome and KDiff3. I have also been having another graphical issue. I am using 11.10 with the Gnome 3.2.1 shell and ttf-mscore-fonts 3.3ubuntu4. Does anyone know what the issue is?
My system settings are:
Driver: VESA: RV710
Experience: Standard
Video card: ATI Technologies Inc RV710 [Radeon HD 430]
I already have Ubuntu installed on the machine and a spare NTFS partition.
Gnome is a reasonable desktop manager, but it doesn't seem to match Mac OSX or Windows 7. Are there any alternatives for Ubuntu that focus more on usability?
