Fedora :: Run A "Gnome Startup Application" From A Different Directory ?

Jun 14, 2011

Using the System->Preferences->"Gnome Startup Applications" interface, is it possible to run a program from an arbitrary directory?

Example:

I want to run a script: /home/user/directory/script.py

It has dependencies (right term?) in the directory it's in, so if I run "python /home/user/directory/script.py" I get an error.

Is there any thing I could type into the "Command" text box to get this script to run?

CentOS 5 :: Set A Startup Application After GNOME Login?

Sep 16, 2011

Centos 5.6 - I'm trying to lock the screen immediately after successful gnome user login. My steps...

System > Preferences > More Preferences > Sessions > Startup Programs tab > Add

I've tried the following...

gnome-screensaver-command --lock
/usr/bin/gnome-screensaver-command --lock

Neither of these seem to work from the Sessions gui. Although from terminal I can run gnome-screensaver-command --lock with no problems.

Fedora :: Add Startup Application From Terminal

Jul 26, 2009

I am quite aware that one can add a startup application to the gnome session by going to System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications (Sessions). But, is there a way to achieve the same thing via the terminal? I want to know because I am writing a simple bash script that installs all of the programs I commonly use. One such program is compiz fusion with fusion-icon.And so I want to add the fusion-icon into the gnome session with my script (strictly within the terminal).

Fedora :: Startup Applications In Gnome 3?

May 25, 2011

So...without editing ~/.config/autostart (which I can't find in F15...) How does someone set a startup application?I notice Gnome 3 does not have the "startup programs" option available any longer.. So, I went searching with the hopes of running it with trusty terminal:

Code:
#yum whatprovides gnome-session-properties
You can use "*/gnome-session-properties" and/or "*/bin/gnome-session-properties"

Networking :: Fedora 11 Gnome Application Can't Connect To Socket Port 8005

Jul 3, 2009

I have an x application I am trying to run under gnome. It assumes a fixed ip address and exclusive use of the eth0. I have run it under gnome on RHEL 5.3. I set the ip address and ifconfig confirms the correct address. When I run it I get "SocketConnect() error:

Resource temporarily unavailabele, port 8005. (on the terminal that I started it)

This is indicative that it has failed to make a connection to the outside world. One difference I notice between the non-working and the working is that, the error message seems to stop coming out on the fedora gnome, almost immediately, whereas on the other installations it will come out indefinitely until it connects. is virb0 interferring. What is different in the networking on fedora 11 then RHEL?

Ubuntu :: Run Script On GNOME Startup Without Gnome Session Manager

Nov 12, 2010

I'm currently building a ubuntu distro and would like to run a script on GNOME startup. I've read about doing it through the session manager but I have to do it through chroot so I'll need to set it up as a terminal command. Is there a way to add an item to the Session Manager from terminal or, even better, a directory where I can put the script so it will run on start?

Ubuntu :: Add Vuze As Startup Application?

I am running:

Ubuntu :: Remove Application From The Startup

Jan 13, 2011

I am running Unbuntu 10.10 on a HTPC, and also XBMC. With some effort it worked ok, sounds, remote etc. Via systems>preferences I managed to add XBMC to the startup. It now starts when I start the PC. However it sort-of hijacks the PC, so the WiFi does not start among other things. Also I am no longer able to log into the desktop, so I am not able to emove XBMC from the start-up of the computer. If I exit XBMC I get to the log-in screen for the desktop, but when I log in it starts XBMC directly.

How can I remove it via the terminal? I cannot find a .config directory, any autostart, any .xsession, .xinitrc or anything else that looks like startup-script. How can I get access to my desktop again?

Ubuntu :: Launch Q CAD (or Any Other Application ) At Startup

May 26, 2011

I have downloaded Ubuntu within windows 7, with wubi. It shows itself as Ubuntu 10.10, though I had selected 11.04, not to worry, this is for information only. I downloaded Q Cad, a drawing programme from the Ubuntu software centre and it shows in the list but I do not know how to launch it.I will have to down load some more applications and I think I will run into this wall again. I can enter CLI through Ctrl+Alt+F1 to F7 and probably do nothing more.

Ubuntu :: Startup Application Order - App After Compiz

I like to use Tilda in transparent mode. In Karmic I just added tilda to the startup applications and everything worked well. Now in Lucid, it starts up before Compiz and I don't get Compiz transparency. I have to quit Tilda and load it again before I get the transparency right. Is there some way to force tilda to start after Compiz? (I have tested this on several comps. it seems to hold true)
