SOLVED xfrun4 xfce4 appfinder launches very slowly xfrun4 is a little Xfce program that allows to run commands, without having to open a terminal window. Since Xfce 4.10 it also works as a application launcher. It is summoned using Alt+F2 , and usually it pops right up, but lately it takes several seconds, sometimes almost a minute, to open. When trying to run it from the terminal, it prints this error: (xfrun4:6232): xfce4-appfinder-CRITICAL **: Failed to open window: Did not receive a reply.

Sony’s Motion Shot app launches for the Xperia Z1 Sony recently launched a new application for the Xperia Z1 called Motion Shot. As the name suggests the app allows you to capture the movement of a short movie so that it appears as a continuous picture. As the example shots below show, the app works best when trying to capture the movement of a sport, child, pet or any kind of moving object. The app also includes a number of effects such as fade-in/fade-out and allows you to set the number of animation sequences. Images can then be saved (JPEG/GIF) and shared to a social network or uploaded to a cloud storage of choice.
