@Rinzwind Just once I wanted to write about framebuffer image viewers, so I took the chance. ;) Requested clarifications from OP there, their setting and goal is not really clear.
Using the dconf editor I'm able to remove or reorder the windows title bar buttons
Ex:
:menu,minimize,maximize,close
Is the any property or value to add my custom button apart from these, so that I can launch an application do some action like send to another workspace of sorts of ?
I have an application at say port 5000 which can render embedded iframes.
https://host-public-ip:5000/
I have a second application on say port 6000. I would like to embed this page in an iframe in the first application.
https://host-public-ip:6000/
This works perfectly when i use the iframe sou...
Can someone please help out here: askubuntu.com/questions/1145293/… ? The poster can't run AppImages. I asked for a list of files owned by root. A pastebin has been provided. One of the many items owned by root is ~/.dbus. It isn't owned by root on my system. Could that be a problem for the poster?
@DKBose, i don't think it's that much, mostly two application subdirectories. i've added a pastebin link for the full output in the post and this comment: pastebin.com/nKmF0sPn — Massi Gest16 mins ago
When the word processor abiword is called on a headless machine, one of the issued warnings reads (emphasis mine):
** (abiword:2020): WARNING **: clutter failed 0, get a life.
Is this an easter egg? Why does abiword make this snarky remark? No GUI session, no life – is that the implication?
@Rinzwind Wait, I see. must be an upstream issue, nothing that relates to budgie. We can work around apparently, but should be filed. I cannot reproduce though.
I have followed many instructions in the past and now things are bad. Like: Suppose if I sleep and wake up my laptop, I have to toggle the brightness again in order to make my PC realize what was my brightness level.
This happens also when I restart or start my laptop.
The weird thing is there ...
I normally use Super and Arrow Key to snap a window to one-half of the screen or the other.
About 5 minutes ago, it started to switch between tty consoles. I gather that this is intended to happen when Alt + Arrow Key is used, and Alt + Arrow key does have that behaviour.
How can I stop my Supe...
We've noticed that some of our automatic tests fail when they run at 00:30 but work fine the rest of the day. They fail with the message "gimme gimme gimme" in stderr, which wasn't expected. Why are we getting this output?
I am using Ubuntu to run an amazon webpage, the page is trying to load a java program and it fails when it tries to open. This opens perfectly in Chrome on Windows but we are looking to go Linux. the error I am getting is: "net.sourceforge.jnlp.LaunchException: The resource from https://images-na...
@Kulfy sure, wherever possible, but I see cases where people remove info about a solution from the question when reopening isn't going to happen and the question isn't going to be deleted either - then I think, just leave the answer in the question if we can't manage to do it properly, no need to destroy it just for the sake of protocol
If we can reopen and even make a CW answer that's much much better
But sometimes the question has no chance of getting reopened and in fact shouldn't be reopened
Just thinking of a few edge cases out if all the thousands of questions I've seen
Can we do 1 thing? Call a mod or flag the question for mod attention. They open a question just for answering the question and then reclose it. Long procedure but I guess it can be followed if we need to strictly stick to the protocol.
I see a problem in my suggestion. mod needs to be dependent on OP/editor to post the answer and then reclose it. What if they never returned? Or mod forgets about the question? I know mods are very responsible people but still. whispers "Bad Idea"
I may raise this issue again if I find a question with no re-open case
@Kulfy I’d stick to the protocol by either not answering anywhere if the Q is rightfully closed or reopen and answer in an answer post if the Q is not rightfully closed. There’s not much room for interpretation IMO, and that’s good.
@dessert I'm not considering this question. Just a general case. IMO you should answer the question even if it's a silly answer in any case. May be in comments in the earlier case
I connect to my Ubuntu EC2 instance over SSH and authenticate using a private key.
I am in the process of installing Cowrie on my Ubuntu instance and as per the instructions here: https://cowrie.readthedocs.io/en/latest/INSTALL.html I create a non-root user using the following command:

For example whoami and date. I can do this that way
whoami>/home/user/folder/file
date>>/home/user/folder/file
But i'm sure it can be done in one line without typing path two times. I have tried using

but always first command is ignored.
I have a pinebook running the official KDE neon image with the really old official 3.10 kernel. In 4.17 support for the pinebook was mainlined, so technically I should be able to build the latest mainline kernel, package it as a deb and install it, right? Only issue is that I can only find instru...
Thanks @Zanna, @Kulfy, @dessert. You’re right, answers really shouldn’t go in the questions (and normally I’m a stickler for the rules) but I’d tried to reopen it a couple times already and it hadn’t gone anywhere, and I wanted the information visible. I’ll post the answer later today; thanks for reopening it!
