Ubuntu :: After Log In Takes Long Time To Show Desktop, Monitor Events At Log In Time?
May 24, 2011It takes me a while to log in the splash screen just sits there for ages before i get to the desktop. Never used to be this slow and I'm not sure why. Firstly, I'm running Ubuntu 11.04, standard DE. I do have conky starting up in a script but it has the & at the end of the line so I didn't think this would cause it (or is there some special case for log in time on how & is treated?). However as a test I will comment out the line in the script and see if it is the cause.
However just for general knowledge and in case that isn't the problem, how does one go seeing what is happening during the time from when one log's in and the desktop is displayed? Is there some kind of log that shows the date/time that can be enabled or is there a debug mode that can be enabled somehow via special keys or maybe from grub?

Debian Configuration :: Cron.daily Not Running Daily On Laptop?
May 31, 2011I am running on a laptop and cron.daily is set to run at 0625 So I wonder what happens if my machine is not turned on at that time.. At that rate it could also be off for the other periods as well (weekly, monthly) Is there solution that will allow them to run once they are online after the appointed time? using a cron entry that runs every 15 or 5 or 1 minute.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Boot Hangs After Anacron / Solution For This?
Aug 16, 2009In F10 the boot sequence hangs just after loading anacron. I booted with interactive mode and after saying 'yes' to starting anacron I'm prompted to start 'local'. When I say yes, my system hangs.
I've seen quite a few posts regarding very similar issues that people were having. None of them seem to have a clear cut solution.
Some posts mentioned about the wrong video drivers, however I've been using the same video drivers for a couple of months now and never experienced this problem.
I looked at /etc/rc.local and all it has in it is 'touch /var/lock/sybsys/local'
I also looked at the file above and there is nothing in it.
Any ideas/solutions? Everything was working just fine the other day. so I'm completely baffled.
Fedora Installation :: Newest Nvidia Driver Still Hangs At Anacron / Fix It?
Feb 6, 2009After a few days of wrestling the xorg.conf file and the akmods/kmod apps, finally have it running properly with a dual display/one graphic card setup BUT only from init 3 and then startx. Trying with init 5 shows a segmentation fault right after recognizing the kmod driver but the sequence keeps running until it after it hits the anacron OK portion. This occurs with an NVIDIA 6800 XT which is covered by the 180.25 driver. Other forum Q&A suggests the wrong driver but NVIDIA recommends this one.

Feb 18, 2009I recently purchased a Quadro FX 4800 and tried to install it on Fedora 10. During the installation, Fedora didn't recognize my new graphics card and began installing the OS in text mode. I stopped the installation and tried to start over, this time I passed the following command: linux resolution=1024x768. I then proceeded with the installation, and again, I was posed with a text mode installation. I continued with the text mode install and when Fedora was done installing, I rebooted and system just locked up.
At this point I was frustrated, so I reinstalled my old 8800 graphics card and started a new install with something that worked in the past. When the install was done, I loaded the latest NVIDIA drivers and the rebooted. I reinstalled my new graphics card (Quadro FX 4800) then powered up my system. I thought everything was good to go and all of a sudden my system flickered and then locked up during the 'Anacron' testing phase. I then rebooted with the "Ctrl+Alt+Del" hotkeys, but my system always locks up during the 'Anacron' testing sequence. I am aware that the Quadro FX 4800 is a few months old, but how can I get it to work in linux? It has gotten so bad, that I had to resort to using MS Vista.

Intel Core Duo Quad Core

May 21, 2010In Fedora 12, I am trying to use a program that uses uinput to inject mouse events to control X applications. This worked with Fedora 9, but doesn't with Fedora 12. I see the following in my Xorg.0.log:

(II) LoadModule: "synaptics"

The device is not a synaptics touchpad, and so the X load of the driver is incorrect. But I don't know how to get X to ignore it's own driver and use evdev. (Or even if that's the right thing.) A general explanation of how hal and evdev are related, for the current X server,

View 2 Replies View RelatedFedora Servers :: FC8 Dell Poweredge Crashes Almost Daily?
Jan 5, 2009I have a Dell Poweredge, 6 months old, running Fedora core 8. I have 2GB RAM and 500Gb SATA HD. I am running 3 VMWare machines. Two Win2003 Servers and 1 XP Pro. My server crashes almost daily. It doesn't actually reboot, it just freezes. It got to the point where I had to get a device that automatically reboots the server when it can't ping the server anymore. /var/log/messages has no entries that indicates the server crashed. It just stops at the point where it dies. The windows VMWare server also have no errors in the event log to indicate a problem.
View 7 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Executable File Into The '/etc/cron.daily' Directory
Jan 19, 2011I have noticed that in the /etc directory there are some subdirectories of /etc/cron.daily and /etc/cron.hourly. Also I have determined that there is a service included as part of the Fedora OS 'crond' which I have started with the use of 'service crond start'. My question is this. If I drop an executable file into the '/etc/cron.daily' directory will it just run? If not what configuration files should I go about editing to run my executable daily? There seems to be a pretty large network of cron related files. I'm trying to make sense out of all of it.
View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Understanding Roles Of Commands: At - Batch And Anacron
Nov 19, 2010I'm trying to understand the role of the at command. Does cron use at to run its jobs? Or is at, and batch for that matter, a separate cue that is only stored while the computer is on. As for anacron, anacron on runs once a day and is geared for a computer that is turned of frequently, as opposed to a server when it is on all the time. I've already man'ed these commands, and googled. I'm just trying to understand more how they work.
View 2 Replies View RelatedDebian :: KERNEL PANIC When Cron/anacron Is Runnig?
Apr 6, 2010I just turn of the services, but there is something wrong about it...How to locate the problem? Maybe its some script in /etc/cron.*? Ive tried running them "manually" but nothing special happened. Is there a log for cron-scripts (or what are they callled)?The kernel panic says something like this: "Kernel panic not syncing, fatal exception in interupt, iwl4965 - irq_tasklet".So it seems to be in the iwl4965 driver, but also strange as it is connected to ana/cron.
It hapens very unregularly sometimes just a minute after starting ana/cron, sometimes it can go longer. It wasnt always like this, first it just happened when I played Warcraft on wine and i thought that was the cause (it might not even be the same problem, but i think so), but then it happened at other times also, so I fiddeled around with the startup services and found that disabling cron and anacron (its about the same thing I figure) keeps the trouble away. Well, its not a big problem, but I just wanted to see what the problem is, Also, is the cron-script doing anything of importance

The question is simple really, I've added a local universality's time server (what is public) and it's live. but it's added to the end of the default time servers what come with fedora. How do I get fedora to just use the local time server, is it a case of removing the default time servers for fedora, but there is a box what says advanced options which are. sync system clock before starting service ???? & use Local time source (( is that the same as the local ntp server that I've got set up ))Hope some body can help me with the network time protocol part of Date/Time settings.
