Gnome 2 automatisch startende Anwendungen loswerden.

Nach einem Systemsabsturz hat mein Gnome 2 eine Sitzung gespeichert, die es bei jedem Anmelden wiederherstellt. Das heißt, dass sich bei jedem Einloggen automatisch Thunderbird, Gedit, Terminal usw. startet und erst einmal meinen Desktop füllt.

Das kostet Zeit und Nerven und um dieses Problem zu beseitigen gehe ich folgendermaßen vor:

Die Sitzung die immer wieder geöffnet wird befindet sich unter:

/home/{Benutzername}/.config/gnome-session/saved-session

Der einfache Shell Befehl dafür lautet folglich:

rm -R /home/{Benutzername}/.config/gnome-session/saved-session

Damit wird der Ordner "saved-session" gelöscht und man startet wieder mit einem sauberen Desktop!

Change the order of the items in your windows' title bars

This guide is mainly for users of Gnome 2 (now known as Ubuntu Classic session), since the title bar is included in the upper panel in Unity. I suppose it could work on down-scaled windows in Unity too, but that would just make everything seem awfully confusing. Install the "gconf-editor" package by using either Synaptic or command line. Run it (this must be done by command line or Alt+F2). Go to Apps > Metacity > General and find the option labled "button layout". Now place the buttons in whichever order you want to. Here are some examples of how you can make your layout look: Default layout:

close,minimize,maximize:

Windows layout:

menu:minimize,maximize,close

Mac OS X layout:

close,minimize,maximize:menu

Alternate layout 1:

close:minimize,maximize

Alternate layout 2:

minimize,maximize:close

You can place the buttons in whichever order you like. Try experimenting a bit until you find the layout that suits you best. Enjoy!

New Ubuntu out...

Hm this should be interesting. I hope I get to keep Gnome 2. Not sure if I like Unity.

Mate Desktop Environment, el fork de Gnome 2

Mate Desktop Environment:

Hello everyone. I've made a GNOME2 fork. I've called it "Mate". My english is not so good. And so, maybe I can not give support in English. Correct me if I'm wrong. Any suggestion is welcome.

...sorry about short description.

Con esta corta descripción se presento Mate, un fork de Gnome 2 en los foros de Arch Linux, hasta el dia de hoy, Mate cuenta ya con un fork para Totem, Gnome-panel, notification-daemon,  evince, nautilus, gedit y metacity. Lo suficiente para correr un entorno de escritorio.

En la wiki del proyecto, podrán encontrar las instrucciones para correr este entorno, así como un repositorio para Arch Linux (risa burlona).

Deben admitir, sabían que esto iba a pasar, así como con Trinity -Que NO es KDE 3.5-. Esperemos que esto sea una alternativa más y viable a Gnome Shell (que personalmente me parece inútil)

¿Que opinan?
