I'm using Kubuntu 20.10. I have installed Intellij IDEA without any problems; but I can't install R into it. I can install other programming languages such as Kotlin, Java or Python; but not R. And I can use R in RStudio; so it is installed correctly.
Could you please help? What am I missing?
Thanks in advance.
I've a printer Ricoh-SP111 and for installing the driver I have followed suggestions here:
Ricoh SP111 printer setup help
I installed it without any errors; however whenever I try to print something, I get blank pages. For example, if I print a document with 5 pages, the printer prints out 5 blank pages. I think it acts like it printed, but it doesn't. Could anyone please help?
Thank you.
This is my keyboard settings on Kubuntu 20.10:
As you can see, numlock is on when plasma starts up; but it is not working. How can I fix it?
Note: I didn't choose keyboard model; because I don't know it. The chosen model is the default one.
Waiting for your reply, Thank you.
@Nmath
Notification sounds won't work. I have already noticed notification tab in system settings; but it doesn't have anything there. If you are suggesting that "Configure events" tab, there is a section for "Play a sound"; but nothing installed there. Isn't there a package or something for automatically installing event/notification sounds just like windows? (Session opening sound, shut down sound, error sound etc.)
Technically it should work, here is the screenshot:
Thank you.
I have a fresh install of Kubuntu 20.10.
How can I resize the start menu? Because it is gigantic!
Although I installed steam millions of time in the past, I can't install steam on Kubuntu 20.10 today. It's a fresh install and everything works perfectly except Steam.
I tried to install it. I couldn't. I removed it, tried again, removed again, tried again..
Could you please guide me as step by step from this point?
Thank you very much.
Note: Current situation when I try to start steam from the terminal:
bash: /usr/games/steam: No such file or directory
I'm running a fresh Ubuntu 18.04 installation. I have an issue with my fan, which is working non-stop. The CPU seems OK. My previous version of Ubuntu (16.04) did not have such a problem.
How do I find the source of this problem?
I'm trying to make my Gnome desktop look like my old Unity desktop as much as possible, and I have noticed that I can't put some icons on the dock bar.
I've done some research and found some code implementation into some system files (I think); so I couldn't venture for it.
What I'm really missing is (My dock bar is at bottom currently):
These buttons are what I liked in Unity the most. Are these changes possible in Gnome 3 or is it impossible because of different desktops?
I'm using version 18.04, what would your suggestions be?
In Ubuntu 16.04 i was able to open numlock on login screen as default with the help of this url:
How to enable numlock at boot time for login screen?
However it doesn't work with Ubuntu 18.04.It throws an error saying that there is no rc.local directory.
Is there a way to fix this?
Your help is very appreciated!
Thanks a lot.
I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 version, there is a GNOME extension that allows you to disable the 'close button' next to "Activities" corner on the left side of top bar. I really dislike to see a button which covers a lot of space and just has a 'close' effect, nothing else.
Do you guys know the extension name? I just can't find it.
First of all sorry for making a duplicate question:
Ricoh SP111 printer setup help | Ask Ubuntu
However, when i try to get help on that question it said that i don't have enough reputation for making comment, i also couldn't make an answer on that page.
Anyway, i have Ubuntu 18.04 on my laptop, instead of an upgrade from 16.04 i made a pure installation.I installed almost all of my programs; but i got 2 basic problems:
1) The system is unstable, as when i use web browsers it pauses momentoraily; also i have a lot of noise from hardware which is clearly screaming, just like im playing Counter-Strike style 3D games.Is it normal just because it is not completely released or is there a way i can check system stuff and fix? I think my hardware is ok:
16 GB RAM, 1 TB HD, NVidia GForce GT940M
This is the output of the top command:
2) My second problem is about installing the driver.First i followed these instructions: (1)
Installation instructions:
As i proceed, i stuck at step-2.I could not make changes on CUPS web interface either because of root error.It wants admin login but there is no admin-pw question when i enter "localhost:631/admin".Then i tried these instructions:
"PrintingCupsWebInterface | Ubuntu Community Help Wiki" (2)
Which resulted a disaster!! Now localhost denies to connect and gives an error saying "check your internet and proxy settings" bla bla like i did not connect to internet and on my pc settings:
Settings>Devices>Printers> ??? Ricoh is now disappeared either.
While trying to figure out number (1) instructions, number (2) spoiled everything.
I know my post was very long; but i really will be very very very pleasured if you could help me out of this.
Best Regards.
EDİT: Now i can't open my own uploaded png, I got an error: "i.stack.imgur.com refused connection".I hope it helps.
I need a little help on desktop icons which drives me really mad.
First of all, i should say i'm very very happy with ubuntu (i'm new on Linux) except this problem.
To be more specific, i have 2 main problems:
1) When icon names are long enough to spread to the second line of "icon name box", its being splitted into two parts.As an example:
Let's imagine a file name is: "This is my veryveryverylong filename". In Windows:
" This is my veryveryverylong filename"
But in Ubuntu it splits words of filenames: " This is m/y veryver/yverylon/gfilenam/e"
or another example: instead of "Mathematics", "Mathe/matics"
So you get the point. (Backslash means the writing of filename spreads to a second line.)
2) In windows we can lock icons when we drag and drop them.It's like there are specific locked (x,y) position spots that whenever we drag and drop an icon, it locks itself into the closest spot which i think very very useful for desktop appearance.
However, on Ubuntu, when i drag and drop an icon, it just sticks to the exact point i dropped.
So do we have any solutions for these 2 appearance problems.
Thanks from now for any help guys! Long live free OS's and the idea of helping each other! ;)
