Lubuntu - terminal disappears but is still running

I've added a quick launch section to my panel. I've added some programs and all are working fine so far except the terminal.



I have added the terminal to the quick launch. When I click on it, the terminal opens and I can run commands, etc.

But when I click outside the terminal window, for example on another app that is running, the terminal disappears and is nowhere to be found. It's still running but I can't get back to it.



I even tried Alt+Tab with no luck.



I know it's running because I have a script that I executed and then clicked outside the terminal window. I can tell by some file behavior that the script is still cranking away.






command-line 18.04 lubuntu

  • What terminal are you using? lxterminal?

  • There are 2 terminals available and I've tried both. I should also mention that if I open either terminal using the menus they work just fine. this is only happening when I launch it from quick launch.

Ellipse (mathématiques)

Pour les articles homonymes, voir Ellipse. L'ellipse est le lieu des points dont la somme des distances à deux points fixes, dits foyers, est constante. Section du cône ou projection du cercle. En géométrie, une ellipse est une courbe plane fermée obtenue par l’intersection d’un cône de révolution avec un plan, à condition que celui-ci coupe l'axe de rotation du cône ou du cylindre : c'est une conique d'excentricité strictement comprise entre 0 et 1. On peut également la définir comme le lieu des points dont la somme des distances à deux points fixes, dits foyers, est constante (sa construction par la méthode du jardinier est très simple). Dans la vie courante, l’ellipse est la forme qu'on perçoit en regardant un cercle en perspective, ou la figure formée par l’ombre d'un disque sur une surface plane. On retrouve aussi, en première approximation [ 1 ] , des ellipses dans les trajectoires des corps célestes (planètes, comètes ou satellites arti...

Quarter-circle Tiles

Image
up vote 0 down vote favorite I have $99$ identical square tiles, each with a quarter-circle drawn on it like this: [asy] size(1.5cm); draw(Arc((2,0),1,90,180),red+1); draw((0,0)--(2,0)--(2,2)--(0,2)--(0,0)); [/asy] When I arrange the tiles in a $9times 11$ rectangular grid, each with a random orientation, what is the expected value of the number of full circles I form? I think this problem has to do with finding the chance any given 2x2 square has a circle, but I can't find it. expected-value share | cite | improve this question asked Nov 20 at 15:03 6minecraftninja 1 2 ...
