Post subject: | How to get rid of pop up windows? |
Hi, I'm on R5E50 right now and ran into another problem yesterday. I was about to try MythArchive and to burn a DVD. So I put the disk in the drive and an annoying pop-up came up asking me what I wanted to do with this disk. The problem is, my box has neither a mouse nor a keyboard connected to it. And I could not find a way to get rid of this pop-up windows via remote. I ended up killing X11 via ssh. But that can't really be the way it should be. For now I disabled the frontend to look for CD/DVD activity. Does anybody know what the proper way is to get rid of these pop-ups? Thanks for any help. Ralf |

No solution here, but I see them too. They're pretty useless. It's some sort of notification that needs to be turned off, somewhere. |

With a keyboard Alt-Tab would rotate through the windows but that doesn't help you... Try going into /home/mythtv/.fluxbox/apps, removing the line that says: Code: [startup] {gnome-volume-manager}
and restarting X with "pkill xinit". |

Thanks tjc as usual great help! I was actually also able to get rid of the window via VNC. But of course with your suggestion it will not be a problem in the future anymore... Ralf |

This is a great workaround for this situation! But, this thread isn't easy to find because it didn't have the text of the annoying message in it - until now!! ![]() "you have inserted a blank disc what would you like to do?" Answer: NOTHING!! GO AWAY!! ![]() |
