I have just learned how to assign shortcut to "create new empty document" in nautilus. I followed stevelove here
Shortcut works well but only in nautilus.
Is there any possibility how to enable this shortcut on my Desktop?
So I have a mounted a samba shared drive (it contains all my files at uni) which when I connect via VPN I can access all the files in there... that was the hard part to set up.
What I'd like to do now is put a shortcut to open the file manager to the directory /mnt/leeds on my desktop, but have no idea how to.
In Fedora 17, how do I setup the following two things which are related to using the terminal?
1. I'd like to get the right click the desktop, then click terminal to start a terminal. This used to be nautilus-open-terminal, but I installed that and it didn't seem to work.
2. How do I setup a keyboard shortcut for launching a terminal?
I created a custom shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T that calls x-terminal-emulator. For some reason, it does not work (nothing happens when hitting the mapping).
The Windows key is default to launch Unity’s dash home. In some work situation, keyboard doesn’t have a win key.
I bought a iomega 1000gb USB hard drive. I use it to back up by dragging and dropping my home folder to it. This works fine. The problem is its full. If I try to delete files when I come to use the trash applet it comes up with a message in nautilus about preparing to delete. Half an hour later it still says the same. Is there a way to do this at less than geological speed?
One of my custom shortcut has auto login parameter along with my login credential in clear text on the exec line. Is there trick how to write the login details portion in encrypted form and make Ubuntu prompts for password or something to decrypt it when I launch the shortcut?
Hi,
I installed Cyanogen Mod, on my HTC One X, but there is no camera shortcut, and the one from the locks screen stopped working, so I need to create an icon...
I'm new to these forums, as well as Linux, but hopefully you guys can help me. I've been considering erasing Windows off my hard disk to gain some space, but until then, I want to know that I can do everything I'll want to do.
I've followed many tutorials and threads on the internet, but they never work for me.
