similar to: centos 5.5--gnome desktop--all icons disappeared.

I am wanting to remove the 3 default icons on the gnome desktop. the computer, the users home, and the trashcan icon. How do I do that? Thanks, Jerry

Hi all! I usually keep the panels on my Centos 6.6 (Gnome) so they auto-hide, but t'other day I wanted to keep the top panel visible for a while to make the clock visible for doing some rough timings. so I open the top panel, click properties, and UNcheck the "autohide" checkbox, close the properties menu, and to my surprise, the panel still autohides. Went thru that exercise

Hi, I've a nautilus problem with CentOS 4. It doesn't show the desktop items any more (also after dropping all gnome files/dirs from a users homedir) en the right mouse button menu also doesn't work. Googling around I've found various items about the problem but until now not a clear solution. Some people mention some 'browser mode in nautilus preferences'. But I

Probably this is due to operator error, The Recycle Bin in GNOME disappeared, for this CentOS 5.5 (32 bit) Desktop PC. The box is fully updated. Is there a command I can use, or another procedure, to get the Recycle Bin in GNOME working again? The .trash folder is there. Incredibly rare that I use the KDE Desktop, but it is also installed on this box and the Trash folder (like the Recycle Bin

Hi all! On 7.1 + CR updates, running "yum list installed | grep -y totem" gives this: yum list installed | grep -y totem totem.x86_64 1:3.14.3-5.el7 @cr totem-nautilus.x86_64 1:3.14.3-5.el7 @cr totem-pl-parser.x86_64 3.10.5-1.el7 @cr and "yum list installed |

Hi all! This seems to me as if it should be a trivial thing to do, but so far I've wasted a lot of time on it and gotten nowhere: I want to feed audio from a source (ipod, other player) into the audio input on my C7 box via either the phone jack or an external USB sound "card" I have, then I want to play it via the speakers connected to the system. I can find no way to do it with

Hello there! I've recently switched from Fedora 11 to CentOS6. Now my SD cards (automatically mounted on plug) contents is displayed as UPPERCASE filenames. I well see in mount's man that vfat's shortname option can be set to either lower, win95, winnt, mixed. OK, that's for entries in /etc/fstab or when mounting manually. I'd like to change the defaults for devices that

I know I should go to EPEL with this, but thought to ask here in case anyone else uses Mate and may know more about it than I do. I had installed the MATE 1.12 packages from epel testing a few days ago, but since that did not include some of the devel packages, I just removed it and reinstalled all the MATE 1.10 packages from epel-7. they all installed fine, but now my desktop has a background,

Hi listees! Just installed C6 (more or less) permanently on my eeepc. I've enabled rpmfusion non-free, rpmfusion free, elrepo, and epel, prior to this point I've been running fedora on it (f10 thru f14) and have always found VLC at rpmfusion. (but finally RHEL/Centos have become modern enough to support the eeepc's funky hardware, so I'm switching back--tired of the version

I'm seeing a strange issue on my C-5.7 system. running Firefox 7 with the very latest flash plugin. browse to CNN, I can view any of the videos directly linked on the main page, or directly linked on sub-pages. but if I click on the video link at the top of the page (in the red bar) Firefox displays the page as a list of "thumbnails" for each video with a small viewer in the upper

I just got a Canon Canoscan LiDE 210 scanner, which the SANE project pages say works "completely" with Sane. but what isn't obvious without a lot of digging is that the version of Sane in EL5 isn't new enough. it works fine with what's on my eeepc (Fedora 17) but not Centos 5.9. I've been messing around with building sane from source, but have not been fully

On 6.5, I've got openswan installed, but yum update is wanting to install libreswan. If libreswan is intended to replace openswan, wouldn't the appropriate yum transactions have been created to remove opnswan first? I'm stumped. Advice appreciated.

I've used Brothers printer driver installer tool to install drivers on C7 for a DCP7650DN. Cups thinks printing is working fine, but nothing ever arrives at the printer: the printer remains asleep. Looking at some of the setup instructions for the brother driver, it looks as if it wants a symbolic link of /etc/init.d/cups to /etc/init.d/lpd. neither of those exists in a systemd system, so

I have a full disk image file (courtesy of ddrescue), and need to mount one of its partitions. I suppose I should have just extracted the single partition when I was using ddrescue, but right now I have the whole disk instead, and no disk space left to re-do the extraction (in fact I won't be able to use the system where I did it for several weeks, so I'd love to be able to mount just the

Hi all! I ran into a description of how to set up a compose key for F21 and decided to see if it would work on C6. Well, the right configuration dialog exists, and I can choose a key to use, but after completion, the compose key doesn't seem to work. It works like a charm on Centos-7, though. If I select Right Win as the compose key, typing <compose>ae results in "?" as I
