Gnome Desktop Admin Menu

Howdy, just came back to Arch and am getting Gnome setup.  First time I have setup Gnome on Arch, and everything so far seems to be running really smooth.  My question though, I've noticed on other distros with Gnome that the Desktop/Administration menu seems to hold more items...  Print Manager, User Manager, etc.  Mine only has Login Window.  What package(s) do I need to add, or what do I need to config, to get the other items to display?  Thanks.

I think theres an updated version in unstable,

  • [SOLVED]Gnome desktop and KDE menu suddenly gone

    I run Arch on a second machine with both KDEmod and Gnome installed. When logging in today Gnome desktop was gone (wallpaper, icons, etc), but the panels were still there. All applications seem to function normally. Switching to Kdemod brought the following result: Desktop and icons are still visible, panels too, just all menu entries and the Konqueror and home icon in the panel are gone. I can still call up applications from the cli.
    The "kmenuedit" command gives me the following error: "... could not read from /home/raisuli/menu/applications-kmeduedit.menu" which is not surprising because the file doesn't exist (anymore?).
    Should I just reinstall Gnome and KDEmod or could there be another way?

    hmm, i'm not sure what could have happened
    maybe you can get them back if you re-install gnome-menus, archlinux-menus ,, i don't think kde comes with any as a pkg.
    you might also be missing /usr/share/applications, most of the entries also come from desktop files in that directory

  • GNOME Desktop Too Bare!

    I love Arch and I love GNOME.  The problem is - the default GNOME desktop that comes with Arch is EXTREMELY BARE!  Even after I change the wallpaper and add some new icons.  It just feels so empty.  Do you guys have any suggestions on how I can fix things up?

    Wallpapers:
    (install downloadthemall firefox extension. open all pics in new tabs, when you're done the click address bar, then downloadthemall from menu. this way you get them all in one click)
    http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/wallpaper/
    GTK engine + gtkrc:
    (from repos, searc with pacman)
    murrine, rezlooks
    Icons and window borders (aka "metacity themes"):
    (install by dragging tar.gz packs to theme preferences window, save your favourites to disk until next installation)
    www.gnome-look.org (sort by highest rating)
    Cursor themes:
    (from repos, searc with pacman. These are the default cursors in ubuntu btw.)
    xcursor-vanilla-dmz, xcursor-vanilla-dmz-aa
    Conky is fun too, if you're into that sort of thing. It can be a bit tricky to use alongside a gnome/kde "root window" (desktop) though...
    I myself installed xcompmgr and avant-window-navigator a while ago. fun stuff. pretty too.
    You could also design your own panels backgrounds with "the gimp". curved or "glossy" panels is fun to experiment with

  • Gnome desktop icon description wrapping [Solved]

    How is it possible to make the icon descriptions in gnome desktop not wrap so early? For instance, the name "Evolution" is wrapped just before "n":
    Evolutio
    n
    And "Thunderbird" is wrapped as follows:
    Thunde
    rbird
    Solution
    It was a matter of opening "Places" --> desktop --> menu Edit --> Preferences and choosing a larger zoom for the Icon View Defaults (I had it set in 50% but obviously 75% is better, now only the "d" of "Thunderbird" is wrapped, but 100% is too big for my screen).

  • How to merge title bar and tab bar on Gnome desktop?

    Not exactly a Firefox issue, but if it works fine on Windows it should work on Gnome too...
    How can I merge title bar and tabs bar?
    In Windows if we hide the menu bar Firefox puts in a single line Firefox button, tabs and minimize, maximize and close buttons. But in Gnome it keeps the separated title bar (with the minimize, maximize and close buttons).
    Is there any way to really implement it on Gnome Desktop?

    I want to back up what was said here. Chrome and Chromium have done this for as long as I can remember and the Linux distribution is entirely irrelevant in this case (as in most cases). There is an option to use the "system title bar and borders" in Chrome. If applied Chrome will have that blocky, chunky effect of not having the tabs overlapping into the title bar that firefox has. By default chrome does not use the system-provided title bar and borders. They wrote their own. The result is it looks nice. I prefer firefox by miles over Chrome, but have to admit it is chunky and ugly around the edges by comparison.
    The problem is not that it is "not possible in Linux." As a dedicated Linux user, hearing that oft-repeated phrase gets really old. There is nothing about Linux that makes things not possible when it comes to coding features. What is going on is the shortcuts available to make the coding quick and easy may not already exist. Fewer people use Linux, fewer people develop for Linux, and there is often less existing code base already written for Linux to make a coding job quick and easy. Also, there is less incentive to write original code to make something work for Linux because we are relatively few; the countless minions using Windows are all complaining about other things and much more loudly so.
    There is no doubt the task could be accomplished--which I would love to see--but the developers have to prioritize. I get that. Just wish they'd be honest rather than use the lazy answer of "It can't be done on your system."

    Hi Prasad,
    To get all these admin. iViews u should have assigned the "Administrator" role(superadmin role is different) to ur userid and that can be assigned by only Administrator.
    After gaining the access u have to create System for mail server.
    Then navigate to
    System Admin.->System Configuration->Knowledge Management->Collaboration->Groupware Transports ->Mail Transport.
    Fill in the parameters i.e. the ip of the mail server and the name of the folder where you want the sent messages to be stored and the name of the system created in step 1 in the system alias field.
    Restart the J2ee engine for the changes to take effect.
    With best regards,
    Amol.

  • Automatic Time Sync on Gnome Desktop?

    What would you do to sync time on your Gnome Desktop?
    Gnome Settings for "Networktime" does not work for me caus it is deactivated after reboot....
    All what i try to do with ntp does not work too...
    Is there any "easy" way to sync time?

    I am quoting from another thread:
    wonder wrote:gnome-settings-daemon until gnome 3.4 used rc.conf to read and save the timezone in gnome-control-center.
    now this functionality was dropped in favor of using systemd date dbus api.
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=140862
    So network time will not work if you have  sysvinit and gnome.

  • HDD icons not appearing on my Gnome desktop when mounted [SOLVED]

    I have several ntfs partitons that I'd like to see as icons on my Gnome desktop.  When I ran Debian/Lenny, I would mount them like so:
    $ sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda2 /mnt/D
    After that command ran, a new icon (HDD) would appear on my Gnome desktop.  I didn't mess with fuseblock at all.  I'd like to get this behavior with Arch but don't understand what I need to do.
    Thanks!
    EDIT: foutrelis solved this, see his post below.

    It looks like if the mount point is under /media it will show up on the desktop. This is not the case with /mnt.
    You're the man, foutrelis!  That did it!  I can't explain why it worked mounted to /mnt/D under Debian but /media/D works for me!  Thank you for the reply!
    Now if you can tell me how I can edit the list of partitions that Gnome gives users, you'll be batting 1000.  Basically, I don't want every single partition to appear in the list.

  • Apple Remote Desktop Admin 3.7.2 Yosemite wake issue

    Another serious problems is.... Apple Remote Desktop Admin 3.7.2 in Yosemite cannot wake up clients Mac remotely. Control has no problem after waking up.
    On 10.9.x I can wake up remote Mac clients if sleeping. Now I have to do it on the other Mac running older OS version.

    I have a different issue.
    Just updated s classroom full of computers and desktop client will no longer observe more than on computer at a time. I can no longer observe groups of computers. Any thoughts on this issue guys? Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10

  • Apple Remote Desktop admin update now won't open 3.5.1

    So a few days ago I updated Apple Remote Desktop admin and now the program won't launch. It says that the admin version is not compatible with the client. I went to apple's software updater and it doesn't show that anything needs to be updated on the client side. Any suggestions?
    Running on:
    Mac Pro
    Snow Leopard 10.6.8

    Okay thanks,  dragging the old app to the trash and logging into the app store did it.  What threw me a bit is that it was asking for my credit card info in order to process the download.  Evidently it only was doing this because it had an old card stored in the system.  I don't THINK it charged me to download again .

  • ISE Admin Menu Access Policy and Network Resources

    Hello Board,
    Does someone experience the same issue as me, if using an Admin Menu Access Policy?
    First of all, I'm using the latest ISE release (1.1.3.124 with patch 1).
    I created a custom Administrator Menu Access Policy (Admin Access -> Authorization -> Permissions -> Menu Access).
    But basically I allowed (show) all menu items.
    Then I bind this permission profile to an Admin Authorization Policy
    Everything works very well, but I have issues, if I want to administer "Network Resources", if I'm using this admin menu access
    - In "Network Devices", there is no Menu bar (no "add", "delete" or "edit" button)
    - In "Network Device Groups", there is just the folder "Groups" on the left side, but there is no way to create anything or navigate into the groups
    I'm not quite sure if this is a configuration fault on my side or just some kind of bug.
    By the way - I'm using the latest firefox.

    As far as I know everything seems fine to me from the configuration  side. You can try downgrading the ISE version to 1.1.2 patch 5 and also  try changing the browser which might help.

  • Control User Access in Desktop/Admin

    Hi,
    I have two versions of Discoverer Desktop/Admin software - one is 10.1.2.45.48 and another is 10.1.2.54.25. Since both are 10g versions there is no change in EUL. Both versions of discoverer are configured for same set of databases.(database versions are 9i and 10gR2)
    There is a chance that I open a workbook in 54.25 version of discoverer, make some changes and save it. Obviously Oracle doesnt support backward compatibility. So I want to know can we restrict such things. I mean an alert or prevent making any changes in EUL/Workbook.
    Cherrish

    Hi Cherrish
    I guess the question I would have to ask is why do you want to keep both versions of Discoverer Admin / Desktop on your machine? Because you have upgraded to 10.1.2.54.25 why don't you delete the older 10.1.2.45.48?
    There is no need for you to keep it any longer and it will only cause problems if you leave it there.
    As to your question, I'm afraid there is no way to prevent any changes in an EUL / Workbook.
    Best wishes
    Michael
