This is a quick mockup I copy and pasted together. I imagine this being super cool and useful.  Does something like this exist already?

Trying to run a Ubuntu server for the first time... But everything is in a terminal. Is there a way to switch to a GUI?

I'm new to linux and the terminal. As I learn how to use the terminal to navigate through directories, I like to use the gui file explorer to mirror my terminal navigation. The icons and file extension info in the gui file explorer help me figure out what everything is. However, I can't access the root folder via the gui, I can only access it via the terminal. Is there a way to enable access to the root folder outside of the terminal?

I am using Ubuntu on VMWare but I cannot connect to internet because of security restrictions.   I was wondering if there was a way to search for strings through the terminal and find which line the string is located on within the file.

I am creating a terminal application that writes stuff to the terminal. And in order to test it, I really should test what's actually displayed in the terminal. Is there a way to read the data that's actually displayed in the terminal somehow?   The terminal must be some file somewhere or something, so there must be some way to read what's there.  cat /dev/tty   seems to give me a stream of data that's in there..But I don't want to see key strokes, just what I have written.

When I type man bash it shows the info in the terminal itself.  How do I tell "man" to open up the info in gedit instead? Is this possible?

Does anyone know of a simple Image Editor, with functionality comparable to ,  for Ubuntu?  I've always found GIMP to be overkill and too complicated for what I want to do.

I used to work on the Mac terminal before and I used:   open file2open.pdf   and the PDF file would be opened on preview or whatever my default viewer was. When I use it in the terminal in Ubuntu I get this error message:   Couldn't get a file descriptor referring to the console

Where are the images from  coming from?  Where are they being saved on my system?  Is there any way for me to point this at my own source of images?

I have problem (seems to be trivia) about Ubuntu Terminal. Once my network connection slow down then it (sometimes but very rare to happened) showed some information like this.     I shocked because I have been got 2,919 PB/s. Sorry my mouse block some part of letter 'P' (I actually rush to print screen) but I believe you can recognize it.    EDIT    based on answer given to me, and I got similar info then, I'd like to add more clearly new image after.    Can someone explain it to me?  Best Regards!

When we want to open an application or file from the terminal, we type, say,  okular file.dvi   This opens the application, but also shows the status of the application. We cannot close the terminal, because it kills the process. Unfortunately, if you're trying to, for example, create a LaTeX file, you will need one tab for the text editor, one for the dvi file, and so on. And if you're trying to open all windows from the terminal, you can forget it. I'm trying use the terminal as much as possible, and while I have Yakuake, it is still a bother having so many tabs and seeing which of those have an application I've killed and so on.  So, is there a way to open an application/file from the terminal so that the status doesn't show and immediately gives the prompt so that we can use it to open more applications?

I want to see the contents of a debian package, especially if the package is properly cleaning up whatever it installs.  I want to also see how it goes about installing the software, what directories it creates, symbolic links etc.

I am running Ubuntu 11.04 with gnome 2.3 and I would like my terminal window to be transparent.  The problems is the transparent settings in my terminal just shows the desktop background and not the actual windows that are opened behind the terminal. This works on my laptop where I have Xubuntu 11.10 and I see no reason why it should not work the same here.  This is how it should look:    This is how it looks:

Is there any way to disable Command+W in the terminal?   On several occasions I have accidentally closed a terminal window containing important information when I meant to close a Safari tab and did not realize that the terminal was the active window.

I can't find any settings inside the terminal profile to allow me to set a geometry size and screen x,y coordinates so that the terminal window always opens (even after reboot) in the same location on the screen and same size.  Is there a way to do it?  I'm open to alternative terminal programs if need be.  (Ubuntu, gnome)
