I'm just wondering how to exit out of an a session in Fedora 11. I used to be able to use ctrl+alt+F1,2,3..etc to go to command line. Please don't tell me you no longer allow users to exit out of x-sessions. Also what about verbose mode during boot up. I used to be able to boot interactivly to diagnose problems.
View 12 Repliesis it possible to execute command and terminate session all in one phrase
something like this connect to server hostname and than execute command "ls" and than some command
ssh username"at"hostname ls "something"
without "something" this phrase connects to server and lists directory, I need something that after listing directory, terminates session.
I'm deploying a Rails application in a Ubuntu 10.04 server withmongrel web server (a lightweight http web server). I connect to server and do stuffs in a ssh client(PuTTY on windows). And I'm getting stuck with a strange issue:1. After I connected to server, I start mongrel with : $ start-stop-daemon -S -d . -x script/server -b -- -p 80802. I left the ssh console and launch firefox from my Win7 box and openthe website, it runs well. I can see the homepage3. I go back to the ssh console. Close the terminal (and window too)it by : $ exit4. Then in firefox, I press F5 to refresh and nothing shows up. It'sjust an empty space in whole webpage. I tried to use addon to capturethe HTTP data and see that te server returns nothing , even HTTPheaders5. I connect to server again, run "ps -Af" to check and see that the process's still running. And again, leave the console, switch to firefox and refresh -> the homepage shows everything. 6. But if I exit the ssh session and refresh browser, the web server returns nothing againI thought that using start-stop-daemon command could help me runmongrel as daemon and then I can exit my session just as apache does.

I have a dual boot machine; sometimes I want to use windows for something Linux won't do.
It boots up Linux by default, so if I want Windows, I need to interrupt it at the beginning.
It would be more convenient if I could tell it, when I shut down, what to reboot into.
I managed to install the graphics card's driver on several distributions, but I just don't get what I have to do to run it on Fedora.Well....

I noticed that if I have "exit" in a bash script file., e.g. script.sh,that when the word "exit" is reached, and the script file being executed is not in the PATH nvironment, i.e. ". script.sh", the whole konsole shell profile is exited! What gives here? Is there another command compatible to "exit" to prevent this, or will I just have the leave the "." part in the PATH enviroment, which is, to my understanding, is not recommended? I desire for a "goto" function in bash script files

Just installed Fedora 12 on a P4 IBM. Everything installed fine. Then, I rebooted, installed updates, and installed a few simple programs (emacs, ssh server). I rebooted since some kernel updates had been made. I can't login anymore. I get a brief message at GDM that says "unable to open session" after I enter my password. Root also doesn't work, but I figured out that root logins are disabled. I found something that recommended disabling selinux, so I reboot with selinux=0 parameter. That still didn't fix the problem, but did initiate selinux to re-label everything on the next boot.
My next thought was that maybe my password got corrupted, so I went into single usermode. I ran passwd justin, so I know that my password is correct. I still can't login via GDM or on a tty.
EDIT: I was also thinking I might need to uninstall something that I did; however, networking is disabled in single usermode, and if I init 3, then I get a login prompt that I can't open. Is there a way that I can enable root login? That might be a starting point to see if it's my user account or a general login problem.
Fedora 13 stops responding during an open session. I am not able to open a terminal or any application, although the mouse still works. I able to get to the shutdown menu, although the system will not shutdown. The only option I have is to do a hard rebootfter a reboot, I am able to log on again and the system performs normal for a few minutes. After a few minutes the system freezes again except for the mouse
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy Fedora 12 box got that error after some updates on it.
I can login but it's prompting that error and everything will be a black space.
But still no good.
According to the log messages, the ConsoleKit session isn't initializing. I can't paste the logs here coz it's on another laptop.
I could think of just upgrading it to Fedora 13 but there's no way I can backup all of my files on it. Is it just safe to upgrade it?
I have RDP working fine on my machine, however when I am signed in locally to the machine, I get the "console" session, which is fine, but when I want to RDP from another machine, I am put into a separate session, instead of "taking over" the console session.Is there a way to do this, similar to how RDP works on a windows machine?I have tried running the mstsc /console command, but I still get stuck into a non-console session.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed Fedora 12 LXDE spin and its default session was LXDE. Then I downloaded XFCE and tried to change the default session of GDM to XFCE. I edited ~/.dmrc and /etc/sysconfig/desktop but this didn`t change anything. I was unable to find where GDM stores its default setting.
Is there any way to change GDM default session?
And more important: is there any way to make GDM to store different default sessions for different users?
After logging into fedora about 5 minutes into the session everything except the mouse freezes on the screen. There is nothing that works. A hard reboot is done and the same thing happens after logging in. The system use to work fine up until a few weeks ago. I suspect it may be an yum update.

I generally have X running all the time on the desktop because I can't get the wireless network connection to function without NetworkManger (not that I really care because I'm rarely at a console screen and need net access).
Here is my setup:
Machine A (fedora, gateway on remote network)
Machine B (fedora on local network)
Machine C (Vista on local network).
I want to connect to machine A from C and run graphical apps on it. I figured that installing a vnc client will be easier then X server (last time I tried X server on windows it did not end well). To ensure security, I vnc into a local linux box (machine B) and then ssh over to the remote box. When I ssh (with the -X param) into A from B, everything works great including the graphical apps. However, when I vnc into B from C and then ssh into A, I get the following message:
Warning: No Xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 fowrard If I then try to run a graphical app I get cannot open display:
localhost:11.0
why does X forwarding work directly and not through vnc?
