I'm using Byobu with zsh. As you can see in the screenshot below, all the windows created have "-" as their title. My colleagues using bash can see the program being run (bash, python, vim, ssh, etc.). How can I achieve the same?
Thanks in advance!
I'm using zsh as my default shell.
I installed byobu and it seems to work fine, however I have to launch it manually every time I start a terminal instance (Ctrl+Alt+T).
I checked byobu-config and it says
Byobu currently launches at login (toggle off)
But it's not the case. I tried toggling this option, but it doesn't change anything and I still have to run byobu whenever I start a terminal.
Is there a way of forcing byobu to be launched whenevr I start a terminal?
Thanks!
Is there a way to retrieve all the bugs that have been tagged using a given tag using launchpadlib?
I'm looking at something like:
launchpad.bugs(tag='bitesize')
I installed a Ubuntu Trusty container using Docker, and when I connect to it, I can see that the locale is set to the bare minimum:
sudo docker run -i -t <id> /bin/bash
root@<id>:/# locale
LANG=
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
I need to use an Unicode locale (for instance the US English one, en_US.UTF-8).
I tried to edit the /etc/default/locale file and put this inside:
# cat /etc/default/locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
But even after leaving the container and coming back, the locale is still not properly set.
I also tried using the update-locale command, without any success:
root@cab13a6abe4f:/# update-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8
root@cab13a6abe4f:/# locale
LANG=
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
On my local configuration, I have the following configuration:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_US
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8
LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8
LC_NAME=en_US.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=en_US.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_US.UTF-8
LC_ALL=
How can I have the same in my Docker container?
Thanks in advance!
In Ubuntu 14.04, I was auto-mounting my NAS partition using NFS by adding the following line in my /etc/fstab:
192.168.1.100:/volume1/Downloads /home/pierre/Downloads_NAS nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr
As a result, I could access my NAS in Nautilus directly after booting up.
I upgraded to Ubuntu 14.10, and I can no longer access it after booting up. When trying to access the folder, I have the following error:
**Unable to access “Downloads_NAS”**
mount: only root can mount 192.168.1.100:/volume1/Downloads on /home/pierre/Downloads_NAS
if I open a term and run
% sudo mount 192.168.1.100:/volume1/Downloads /home/pierre/Downloads_NAS
Then I can access it normally.
What can I do to mount the partition automatically at boot time?
Thanks!
I have an Asus laptop with a nVidia card. lspci tells me:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF119M [GeForce 610M] (rev a1)
I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (64-bit edition).
By default, Ubuntu 14.04 uses the nouveau drivers, but they don't work very well (blinking cursor, slow 3D display, etc.), so I would like to install the proprietary nvidia drivers.
I go in System Settings > Software & Updates > Additional Drivers. Ubuntu proposes me the following options:
Whatever I try to select (other than Nouveau), after I click on "APply Changes", it reverts to Nouveau without any additional feedback...
So I tried to install the drivers manually with apt:
$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-331

Also, do you think it's a bug? (if so I will raise it in Launchpad)
Thanks in advance!
Here is my configuration:
When I have meetings I unplug the screen from my laptop to take the laptop to the meeting room, so all the windows are re-positioned to fit in one screen only. After the meeting, when I plug it back to the external screen, I need to manually move all the windows back in place.
Is there a way to save and restore the windows, so that I don't have to do this manually everytime? A script with save/restore options would be great!
Thanks!
Note: I don't think this is a duplicate of "How do I save sessions or reopen last-used applications?", since I keep my computer turned on (the solution explained in the other post is about using an hibernation tool tweak).
Note 2: I found this script, but it does not work.
Edit (2013-06-03) the tool wmctrl can help to get and set windows positions. I created a Shell script with it, but there is a known bug in Unity which makes it impossible to use there. Even on XFCE the result is random sometimes...
I am using Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome Classic environment.
I wanted to try Xfce, so I installed the metapackage xfce4. In the end, I was not convinced so I removed it and came back on Gnome Classic.
The problem is, even though I removed the xfce4 package, it seems a lot of things are still installed, and some modifications have been made.
Some default apps have been changed (Thunar replaced Nautilus as default app), but I could change this.
But how do I revert to the original notification icons instead of these:
I went into System Settings > Appearance, changed the theme, but the ugly icons are still used for notifications.
P.S.: My question might also be: how to make sure the metapackage xfce4 has been removed totally?
I just bought a Logitech M555b Bluetooth mouse today. My computer (a Macbook Pro 8,2) has a bluetooth connection, and it works perfectly fine on Mac OSX (I set up a new device, click the connect button on the mouse, and voilà, done in 5 seconds).
I cannot get it to work on Ubuntu 12.04.
When I follow the same steps as on Mac OSX under Ubuntu 12.04, Sometimes I will see the mouse name appearing for 1 second on the screen, and if I'm fast enough to click on "Continue", I will have a message telling me the pairing with my mouse failed.
Here are the steps I follow:
In the /var/log/syslog, I have the following information:
May 27 23:26:16 Trane bluetoothd[896]: HCI dev 0 down
May 27 23:26:16 Trane bluetoothd[896]: Adapter /org/bluez/896/hci0 has been disabled
May 27 23:26:58 Trane bluetoothd[896]: HCI dev 0 up
May 27 23:26:58 Trane bluetoothd[896]: Adapter /org/bluez/896/hci0 has been enabled
May 27 23:26:58 Trane bluetoothd[896]: Inquiry Cancel Failed with status 0x12
May 27 23:28:26 Trane bluetoothd[896]: Refusing input device connect: No such file or directory (2)

May 27 23:28:26 Trane bluetoothd[896]: Discovery session 0x7f3409ab5b70 with :1.84 activated
I tried for an hour, I restarted my computer, re-paired the mouse on Mac OSX, etc.
Sometimes when I restart the computer, I have a dialog box showing up saying that the mouse M555b wants to access some resources or something, if I click "Grant", or even if I tick "always grant access", nothing happens...
How can I get the Bluetooth to work properly? Help!
