Mood's questions

To be honest I'm not sure or what I want is possible but it would be very nice if this can be done.

I changed the behavior of the Capslock to act like a Ctrl key. Now it's just an Ctrl key only positioned at an easier to reach place, which is great, but…

It would even be nicer if I could press the Capslock key followed by a second key press. I mean for example: Capslock(ctrl) → V instead of the normal Capslock(ctrl) + V.

I guess what I'm looking for is a somewhat similar behavior as the G(go) combinations in Vim or Gmail. Does anyone have an idea how this can be accomplished?

I'd like to know or it is possible to set up the GNOME Terminal in a way that when I open up the terminal and there is already an instance open it'll show that instance and not open up a brand new one.

I’m trying to help someone on a Windows machine. The irony is that I now need help myself to connect the 2 computers.

I open my Remote Desktop Viewer, put it in listening mode by selecting ’Reverse Connection…’ but nothing happens when the other side runs the One Click VNC executable.

My 5500 port is open so I find it hard to believe this is a forwarding problem.

I’m curious… Is there a way to get Opera working with the global menu? That would be very nice if it could.

Kupfer is a great launcher for my not so powerful laptop if only the program would work properly. Every time I bring up the app it will not get focus. So I’ve to press the app first before I can search anything. Surely this is not the way things are suppose to be. Anyone had the same problem and found a solution?

I’m pretty sure this is possible since I had it that way before my fresh install. Now installed XChat and it’s icon is shown on the panel. How can I move it to the message menu?

I want to assign Skype input and output to my USB-headset while the rest of my laptop uses the internal sound-card. This is an easy task with PulseAudio Volume control (pavucontrol). The only problem I have is every time a call is made I manually have to set the output and input for Skype to my USB-device .

When I hang up, Skype disappears from Volume Control. It reappears again with the next call only this time the default sound-card is selected again. It shouldn’t be hard to let PulseAudio look or the USB-headset is connected when Skype audio comes is before selecting the default. The way to do it is obvious not through Volume Control.

Thanks to this thread I know now that I should've done this during the installation part. But I didn't.

So I'm left with my system partition and a old home partition that acts as an extra drive. I would like to know or it still possible to mount the old home partition back. I rather keep my data on that partition but if that is not option I still want to move my home folder. My system partition is just too small to host the home directory.

Recently I found out about an OS X application called LESS.app. It’s basically an app to compile and minify *.less files into *.css files and does it in real-time. I want to know or I can archive the same thing in Ubuntu and how to go about it.

My problem is the following: Every time I try to delete a file from my auto-mounted drive Nautilus freezes up. First I get the prompt-screen saying ‘Cannot move file to trash, do you want to delete immediately?’. No matter what option I choose, Nautilus will freeze and stay frozen until I force it to quit.

I have no problem deleting files from my ‘system’ disk. And I tried deleting files on my mounted disk by using CLI and from Nautilus on an other computer over SSH, both methods work fine. It's just deleting that gives me problems. Copying, moving files around will work as it should.

When I use the Elementary theme 2.0 the default Caffeine icon is displayed in my top-panel. I found some nice icons that’ll fit the theme better. I followed the instructions on the page and they’re not working for me. Any tips how I can make these icons show up in my panel?
