I just installed virtualbox, when i press HOST + F I see the window fullscreen but the OS still small. It seems doesnt not follow the fullscreen directive.
Someone coul dhelp me?
Thank you

I think you have to set up guest OS's screen resolution to match your screen. Ie if the guest is Windows the right-click on desktop and select "Properties -> Settings" and select appropriate screen res using slider.

I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 on my Macbook Pro. When I click the trackpad, it is always registered as a small mouse movement as well as a click, so it drags whatever I click on. has anybody else encountered this? Is there any synaptics setting that can help? For the moment, I've enabled tap to click because normal clicking is so tough.
I didn't have this issue when running Ubuntu in a VM, but I guess that has another abstraction layer that prevents synaptics from being the one interpreting direct touchpad input.
Thanks!

I have added the minimize and maximize buttons as described here.
I tried both command line and GUI options.
They don't add...
And when in GUI I see a red marker stating "The key has no schema"
Does anybody know what to do?
Ok,
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.overrides button-layout ':minimize,maximize,close'
Does the trick.

I'm trying to personalize my Linux Mint's 12 graphics (lookes like here http://www.muktware.com/articles/3020). I've just disabled panel on the bottom of my screen and changed font in the upper panel. How to change upper panel's icon size/padding? Modifying PANEL_ICON_SIZE in /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/panel.js causes system freeze and upper panel disappearance.
Thanks.
Here's what worked for me:
Open /usr/share/themes/<themename>/gnome-shell/gnome-shell.css in a text editor
Look for the .panel-button entry, and change the -natural-hpadding and/or -minimum-hpadding values as needed.

does any know how i can exit a program in HP webOS 3.0 Emulator. There isn't any home button and i can not find answer anywhere with google. Thanks
Same way as any webOS device: go to Card Mode (press the Home key for the Emulator) and toss the card off the top of the screen. That's a bit harder with a mouse in the Emulator, than a finger on a device, but it's still doable.
You can achieve this using the "scroll wheel" on your mouse
(Added as an answer to help anyone in future)
On a Macbook Pro, use fn+left key to switch to card view and then you can use mouse / touchpad to throw it away.

This is not a programming question per se, but this is certainly about something which would help increasing my programming productivity.
In KDE, one can assign short-cuts to particular windows. This eliminates alt-tabbing completely and, is very very convenient when multiple apps(browser, console, emacs etc) are open.
My question is - can window short cuts be assigned in XFCE4 ? And if yes, how ? I very recently switched to XFCE from KDE4 and would appreciate any help regarding this.
TIA.
I'm using xdotool.
For example command below moves Firefox to foreground:
xdotool search --onlyvisible --name 'Mozilla Firefox' windowraise
You can update your keyboard settings with needed parameters (Applications Menu -> Settings -> Settings Manager -> Keyboard):
