How To Remove Ubuntu's Password Keyring - 4 views

  • So here’s how you get rid of the keyring manager.
  • Open up your Home Folder by clicking Places>Home Folder Press CTRL-H (or click View>Show Hidden Files) Find a folder called .gnome2 (it has a period at the beginning of the name) and open it by double clicking on it Inside of the .gnome2 folder, there is another folder called keyrings.  Open it up. Delete any files you find within the keyrings folder Restart the computer
  • After you restart and login (if you’re automatically logging in) you’ll probably be asked to enter your wireless networks WPA/WEP encryption key (because we made it forget).  After you type that password in, the keyring manager will appear to let you know that it would like to handle the storage of that password and lock it away with a new keyring.

  • Instead of typing in a new password, leave both boxes completely empty and click Create. You’ll then be asked if you know what the hell you’re doing:
  • Go ahead and click Use Unsafe Storage.

  • ‘little community’ building Free Software you say Rory? Dismissive and unnecessarily Patronising

All about Linux: Configuring xterm in Linux - 0 views

  • XTerm*background: whiteXTerm*foreground: blackXTerm*pointerColor: redXTerm*pointerColorBackground: black
  • konsole takes a whooping 8MB and gnome-terminal over 3MB of memory, you can run xterm under 1MB
  • Create a '.Xresources' file in your home directory and enter the values that you want to set. My .Xresources file is as follows:

  • By pressing [Ctrl] key and the middle mouse button, you get a pop-up menu which helps you set/unset a lot of other features of your xterm window like enabling/disabling the scroll bars and so on.
    • David Corking
       
      If you use the pop up menu to customize your settings, I don't think there is a way to save your preferences. I think you need to use a text editor to create the .Xresources file as Ravi describes above.

    My Ubuntu 9.04 installation does not seem to listen to the .Xresources file. I am trying to figure out why.

      Interesting selection of Window Managers. It is a list of usual suspects, with 2 promising recruits: FVWM-Crystal and Openbox, but the omission of Enlightenment, Blackbox and WindowMaker.

      I had the exact same error as "drizad" when installing ies4linux-2.99.0.1 on Ubuntu Linux 8.10 And the exact same fix worked a dream for installing IE6, which seems to run very well after a brief test (though it won't shut down without a CTRL-C - lucky it is unix :) )

    This is all a bit of fun, but all the same. someone please give me the link to the vote counts - I would love to know what the runners up are to some of these. (Yes I am the sort of person that also looks at Ubuntu and Debian popularity-contest results.) There are some well-deserved victories and predictable horrors here: I think 'worse is better' applies to some of these winners.
