As the Rescatux forum registration is currently disabled, I'm asking here...
How to launch Rescatux from a hard disk drive - BIOS mode (DVD-reader is dead)?
EDIT: I suppose through a similar procedure as for launching a debian install from hdd (re. here and here), hence: which kernel binary and ramdisk image to use?
I'm on debian jessie 8.1, just installed gtk-redshift and it won't start from applications menu (nothing happens when I click it). I'm using xfce, could it be the problem?

Code:
gksu -D Terminal -- env -u ORBIT_SOCKETDIR /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator
Apparently, the method using gnome-terminal is to add a trailing
Code:
--window-with-profile=PROFILENAME
but this did not work, probably because in this case I'm not calling directly on gnome's terminal.
Fresh Squeeze install: I have AWN running and right now I have used gconf-editor to stop gnome-panel from being a part of the Gnome Sessions. I think it was in Desktop -> Sessions -> Default Settings..or something like that. Before I did this I was just clearing out the entries for the top panel, using Apps -> Panel -> and then it was top_panel or something like that. I'm at work so I cannot fully verify, after I deleted the bottom panel. This still allowed me to use ALT + F2 to bring up the run prompt.
Since removing gnome-panel from the session, I cannot use ALT + F2 anymore. If I were to put gnome-panel back, is there a way to keep the panels from recreating themselves after I remove them from within gconf-editor? If I leave gnome-session alone, whenever I reboot the top panel keeps coming back. I have everything I want running out of the AWN dock, so I want to remove the panels completely but still have the ability to launch the run prompt.

So I just installed 32-bit Squeeze. I've done exactly two things since booting into the first install: pt-get install gtk+2.0, and ./firefox, so unless gtk did something, this might be an easily fixable problem with Debian itself. After installing gtk and trying to run firefox via command line, it tells me
Code: Error: cannot open display: :0 I googled a bit and couldn't come up with a solid solution, but the problem seems to be around other places. Any idea how to fix this?
As a long time FreeBSD user, I consider give Debian a try upon the arrival of my new laptop. However, seems I couldn't launch desktop environment by simply typing startx on console as on FreeBSD. I can start desktop through a display manager like lightdm on Stretch, which is quite easy and straightforward, but I still prefer the "startx way".
I setup Debian Stretch on Virtualbox (4.3.43) using official debian-installer, login as a normal user, and install xfce4 via Code: Select allsudo apt-get install xfce4. The installation of xfce4 was very fast and it also introduced xorg related packages here. Then I edit my $HOME/.xinitrc as follows:
Code: Select allexec startxfce4
I typed startx to expect Xfce desktop but got the errors complained instead: [URL]....
while the xorg.0.log had the following contents: [URL]....
So, I failed to start xfce4 by startx as a normal user and had to install and start lightdm to go into desktop, but when I login as root, it worked and launched Xfce4 by startx without any problem. I couldn't figure it out now.
I have this message in the syslog from squeeze:
Code:
May 2 21:18:19 squeeze x-session-manager[1732]: WARNING: Could not launch application 'user-dirs-update-gtk.desktop': Unable to start application: Failed to execute child process "xdg-user-dirs-gtk-update" (No such file or directory)
For many years, I was happily running VMware virtual windows machine (XP, now Win7) on my linux host. Using the VMware unity mode I had the perfect, seamless integration of windows applications on my favourite linux desktop. However, VMware has dropped unity support for Linux hosts in their latest release 12. So I need a new method to get my seamless integration.
I have set up some launchers for the most commonly used windows applications to run them as RemoteApp via xfreerdp directly from my dock. That seems to work OK. Now sometimes I have to access some other program or maybe the control panels or something like that. For this purpose it would be very useful to be able to launch the (or any 3rd party) "start menu" as remote up and from there launch whatever is needed. So far I did not find anything that looked like a StartMenu.exe I could use
How I could access the start menu via RemoteApp.
VMware Unity was way cool. I tried Seamless Mode in VBox, but that doesn't cut it for me ....

I have installed debian-live-squeeze-amd64-gnome-desktop. I am trying to launch "Software Sources" from the menu but when I try nothing happens.I tried reinstalling it from Synaptic but once removed it would no longer show up in Synpatic's list and has now gone altogether.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy first distro was kubuntu, and am now trying Fedora with KDE. I was annoyed that the open windows were not shown on the task bar. I tried adjusting all sorts of things, and finally figured out that all I had to do was add a certain widget. I had no idea that this is what I was looking for, since kubuntu already does that by default. But in the process of figuring this out, I caused KDE to crash. The next time booted with Fedora, KDE would not launch. So I logged into a virtual terminal and ran startx. I got the following errors:
Code:

I have been using ubuntu since 10.04 version and configure with compiz to activate the corners, cube, etc. No problems with that. When I upgraded to 11.04 these things were not working but honestly I did not care that much and was just playing with compiz, so I was playing with an option in compiz about the size of the icons in the new 11.04 launch bar, just when I clicked it my top bar and launch bar are gone and not coming back after rebooting many times. BTW I already uninstalled compiz via terminal and the same problem is happening, maybe important for you to know (alt+f2 or other shortcuts not working except for ctr+alt+t)

I installed it yesterday. It worked well. I was able to log into windows without any trouble and restart into Ubuntu without a hitch.
This morning I launched Ubuntu as usual vi GRUB. I was asked to install about 135 upgrade files, which went withou an apparent challenges. I then went through the restart and noticed that there was an extra two choices in GRUB, but I just left it to launch Ubuntu automatically. Which it did.
I then messed about with the appearance settings. Noticed a some more updates were waiting which included 49 files. I went through the updating process and restart.
GRUB worked well, and I was soon loggin in with username and password.
The Ubuntu Screen became visible with the flashing horizontal line and about 3 seconds later everything froze. I waited for several minutes - I timed them - but still no progress - everything remained frozen.
I switched off the machine completely, as I knew of no other way to get out of this situation. I rebooted and when GrUB launched I booted into windows 7 with absolutely no problems.
I used restart in windows and then allowed GRUB to boot into Ubuntu. Once more I was able to log in but soon after the Ubuntu Screen appeared and the horizontal line flashed for a few seconds, everything froze. This time I waited five minutes before switching off the machine by disconnecting at the mains.

I am running Kubuntu 10.04 and i want to make some icons on the desktop to launch various telnet sessions. So i make a .sh using vi test.sh and then put in telnet 180.9.x.xx and save and quit. Then i chmod 777 it to make it executable and then moved it to my Desktop folder. But when i double click or right click and open with konsole nothing happens. I know it is probably something stupid which i have overlooked but when i have done this in Ubuntu in the past it has worked.
