[update] problem solved after a grub reinstall.
I have been running fedora 12 as a virtual machine on a Windows 7 (64bit) host through VirtualBox.
How can i enlarge icon in browse menu? When i want to upload some pictures to sites, and when a window opens for finding and selection images, icons are to small, i need to enlarge them so i can see pictures right away (dont want to click on every one to see preview). See image attached.

i have a laptop with a high resolution. i installed ubuntu(a linux distro) on it, and then enlarged the system fonts. everything seemed perfect. but recently, i installed matlab on ubuntu, and i found that matlab not fall in with the system fonts, the font in matlab has the original size and too small for me.
hello
I'm trying out xrandr to create a larger (virtual) screen size
on my 1280x800 laptop screen. For instance:
xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1280x800 --scale 1.3x1.3
should give me a screen that is 1.3 times as large as the
physical screen.
Now I tried this from within the kde window manager (I'm
i create a file using dd command like this:
dd if=/dev/zero of=1g.dd bs=1M count=512 seek=512
when i run command ls 1g.dd, its size is 1G, run du 1g.dd, it's 512M.
there is a struct stat in c library to read file size, but it can only read out that 1G size, now how can i get that 512M size which is the real size of that file?
now the only way i know is to parse shell command du's output.
I suspect it was a recent update but I am not sure what updated that broke my icons and thumbnails. When I go into folder with Thunar, some of the icons get mixed up and don't correct themselves until I run the mouse over all of them. They quickly get mixed up again.
I have a folder containing a lot of KVM qcow2 files, they are all sparse files.
Now I need to get the total size of folder, the qcow2 file size should be counted as apparent size(not real size).
for example:
image: c9f38caf104b4d338cc1bbdd640dca89.qcow2
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 100G (107374182400 bytes)
disk size: 3.3M
cluster_size: 65536
the image should be treated as 100G but not 3.3M
My company uses ubuntu server as dedicated server and already it has vsftpd installed and also has some virtual user(done by former system admin).
Hello everyone
my problem is that my file explorer says that there's only 1.5 gb free space. however, in windows, i've more than 100 gb of free space. i tried to enlarge my partition using gparted but gparted only shows the /dev/sda1 on host wich is the windows partition that uses the whole disk. does anyone know how to enlarge my linux partition?
