@JorgeCastro I did $ sudo apt-get update and then tried A) apt-get again (after removing everything) and B) tried dpkg again (after removing everything)
@JorgeCastro Thank you, currently installing virtual things so not getting stuck to this kind of things...it was my mistake to go too early to 12.04 :P
at college we use Microsoft .NET for developing applications. I recently switched to Ubuntu and would like to know similar tools for making apps on/for ubuntu.
in ubuntu 10.10 I've discovered a very useful feature. using the keyboard shortcut "Super+A" I had a overview over all my windows I had opened. I dont know if it came with ubuntu itself or with a tool like compiz but I love it. Now I've installed kubuntu 12.04 and miss that feature. I had a great time benefit from that so plz help me out
have you tried changing the keyboard shortcuts yourself?
@ycelik haven't used kubuntu but i am assuming there's a way to change key shortcuts, try regional and accessibility from the main menu under system settings
@msPeachy ok I've checked the shorcut list at settings->system settings->shortcuts and gestures but I didnt find it. Also theres not a single shortcut with "super" key. I'm really pissed of ..
> I just said we don't need Ubuntu anymore because Ubuntu's unique features are (or will be) included in Gnome also
So you're saying that Ubuntu does not have more innovations? That's like saying we didn't need the knife, because whacking things with a rock broke them up just fine.

hi, I have a ssh shell on a remote linux computer, from a linux computer. What would be the easiest way to get a graphical interface (sort of vnc or teamviewer) from there ?
if you can add packages and you're not horribly size constrained i would just install xvfb and some lightweight window manager. then remote in to that...it's noisy, but it's easy

well my question is just how to setup a remote desktop.
I have a connection* from A (my local computer) to B (the remote computer) through ssh, and I'd like to pass vnc or anything similar through that existing connection
so as to get a remote desktop from A to B
I've tried quite a lot of things, vinagre, qtnx, and such, I'm always getting errors no matter what I try
I just want something that works, regardless of what it is
(preferably nx as a matter of fact, since it is said to be faster, but at this point anything will do)
well I'm sorry if I can't just put it into simple words that fit into one sentence, I'm just exposing a problem and I hope you will be able to help me solve it.
but if you want further details, because my explanation seems unclear, please ask
How do I find out if I have an answer to a question I post?
I have posted 2 questions. One was tagged as too vague, the other seems to have disappeared.
I am trying to get some traction on Ubuntu, but everything is obscure, even the question forum.
Now here's a challenging decision to make... should I make use of this package and drop support for earlier versions of Ubuntu or use QtDbus and not have cross-platform RPC?
(Or something even more complicated - like sockets?)
I am considering using libqtrpc2-1 in my application but there seems to be some confusion over the name of the package.
On the right-hand side of the package page, we see:
So it looks like the package is named "rds".

@bob good deal. that should elicit exactly the response you're looking for
someone may edit your title a bit since i tend to be a little snarky, but it's VERY clear what you're after when worded that way
it's tagged both 12.04 and 10.04. are you going across distributions? might be good to include that in the actual description if so, since i seem to recall some remote-desktop software having a bug in that instance
