CentOS 5 Server :: Start X At Startup Without Running Login Screen?
Jan 12, 2011I am setting up a CentOS server that has no screen connected, and only has 2 Tesla cards. I have created a minimal xorg.conf and xinitrc file that doesn't load mouse or keyboard, and only creates two screens, one for each card at 320x200x24 bit. This is so I don't waste VRAM on a framebuffer I can't see.
I modified the xinitrc to just load tdm and nothing else as GNOME is a RAM hog. I am then using this setup to render stuff offscreen using OpenGL into FBOs which I read back to CPU and process. Currently for development I just run startx& when I login. I now want to know how to set x server to start automatically at boot. The CentOS docs say that it will try to load the GNOME login manager. The thing is that I don't want a login manager as it is useless as I login remotely via SSH.So:
1 - how to enable automatic x server in CentOS (im used to Ubuntu so not sure how to do this on Red Hat variants)
2 - leave x server running without starting login manager

Ubuntu :: Mozilla Automatically Launch On Startup?
Jan 29, 2010How can I turn off specific authentications? I don't want to have to authenticate every time I mount a different drive (in a different partition).

Jul 12, 2010I have recently installed denyhosts to help guard against bruteforce ssh attacks on my Fedora 12 server from the Fedora repositories. If I manually start denyhosts (as root) using: /usr/sbin/denyhosts.py --daemon
it works fine. The denyhosts log file is created and indeed the /etc/hosts.deny file is updated. However if I make attempts to start denyhosts automatically upon the server restart denyhost fails with a permission denied error for /etc/hosts.deny (error 13) I have tried using chkconfig to enable /etc/init.d/denyhosts on run levels 3, 4 and 5. I have also tried including the line:
/usr/sbin/denyhosts.py --daemon
in /etc/rc.local Both of these attepts report the same error. anyway to automatically start denyhosts or know why this problem might be happening?

Ubuntu :: Delaying Startup Of Automatically Started Programs?
May 16, 2010Recently I have had a run of random errors on boot up. Finally, the quit button, top right of the screen disappeared permanently. I am convinced it is because I added Evolution to the programs that start automatically when I login to Ubuntu (auto login). Evolution uses the Internet connection which hasn't been successfully established by the time it starts. In the past, this would crash Ubuntu. It seemed to be fixed by this stage, but maybe not. Is there some way of delaying the startup of a program in the automatic startup list - to give the rest of everything time to settle in - before it starts trying to use other startup resources?

View 7 Replies View RelatedDebian Configuration :: Making (PPPOE Start) Run At Startup Automatically
Feb 17, 2011I have to use pppoe because my ISP uses service names, and as far as I know the only program which lets me input a service name is pppoe (inside the pppoe.conf file). Networkmanager is buggy because it tends to disappear from the panel periodically and, worse, it doesn't reconnect (although the option is selected, it does reconnect only once).
So, for peace of mind I open a superuser terminal and enter "pppoe-start" and "pppoe-stop" to have everything I want (reconnects automatically, etc.). Now the question is: how can I have pppoe-start run at startup, automatically, without entering superuser mode, and without having a terminal open for this? Using Debian Testing (Wheezy).

General :: Automatically Run A Virtual Machine (made By Vmware In Fedora OS) At Startup In Fullscreen?
Sep 11, 2010I am an administrator of a student lab with 20 PCs. I was thinking of a way to protect those machines in the long run with the presence of some students with destructive behaviour. The most suitable solution to install a Linux OS and use virtual machines to load Microsoft OS. This way once the OS fails I can simply replace the VM with a clone that was previously made.
The point is that most students have no experience with Linux, that's why I need to load the Virtual machine automatically at login and in full-screen view so that The startup process ends up in Microsoft OS through the virtual machine (VMWare based) in Linux platform.
update : I'm using Fedora13 Linux distribution. I believe that part of launching the VM in full-screen is more difficult than automatically launching VMWare at startup. Is there some way I can tell VMWare to launch a particular virtual machine in full-screen when it starts on boot?
