I am ashamed, but I knuckled under and am running Unity. Somehow I managed to get plain Gnome-terminal on the Launcher some time ago. When I tried to get the same for a friend on her new install of 12.04, I could not find it on Dash. While trying to figure out what I had done to get it on my machine, I detached it from the Launcher, and lost it! Drat!, or words to that effect.
So the search began. I did eventually find Byobu Terminal, attached it to the Launcher, and it seemed OK, but with bells and whistles. So I launched the man page to try to understand the bells and whistles. OK. Closed the man page and the instance of Byobu. Now Byobu launches but quits immediately. Don't you love the improvements we keep getting? I am happy with plain Gnome-terminal. Dash does not know about it. Found another terminal (XTerm), launched gnome-terminal, locked it to the launcher, unlocked the broken Byobu terminal, and now I am back to where I want to be. Anybody here foolish enough to run Unity and have advice on how to more efficiently deal with Dash and the Launcher? -Denis _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
