Fedora :: Stopping Unwanted Services / Process?
Jan 29, 2010
I am using Fedora12 with latest update, and am using kde4.3.4.
To decrease the memory consumption on one of my system I disabled many services presently only following services are running:
NetworkManager
abrtd
acpid
akmods
[Code]....
Now I want to stop some default running process like modem-manager, seapplet, ksmserver, krunner and sometime knotify4. I could not locate the initiation point of these services. So that I can manage (start/stop) these services.

I've got a few processes running on my machine called simply '3'. I don't know what they are or where they have come from but all I know is that I don't want them there. I have to periodically type killall 3. This is the output from top, all processes listed are of this '3' type.
4804 tom 20 0 3356 752 656 R 2.3 0.0 3:40.75 3
4837 tom 20 0 3356 748 656 R 2.3 0.0 2:55.98 3

I have installed squid using CentOS 5.When the server boot there are default services which are enabled at Boot time. My server is dedicated only for squid proxy server.I want to know how that when my server boot only the relevant services should start which may helpful for squid. Remaining unwanted services should be disable because they are just occupying memory of the server. Kindly guide me which command I should use and which services may I disable for smooth functioning of my squid

I'm trying to stop all the services on port 80 by I'm not entirely sure how.Infact, I don't really know what's running on port 80... I tried throwing a netstat -a in a prompt but I don't see port numbers anywhere so I can't figure out which PID to kill.Any ideas on how I can figure out what's running on port 80, and stop it?

I have installed squid using CentOS 5. The server is dedicated only for squid proxy server. I want to know how can I disable unwanted services which load at booting time. Like sendmail,samba,etc etc. These services take memory and are not in use. I does not know how can I make my server only for squid proxy service by removing unwanted services?

I am working in Linux and have connected a normal LED to my serial port (with voltage conversion). I am just trying to make that LED blink periodically using alarm ().So in the signal handling routine of my code,i toggle the LED but then the program quits as SIGALRM terminates the process. Shall i make a nested alarm so that the handling routine also has an alram()? I am stuck and i must confess that i am not so convenient with signal handling so can someone provide some pointers?I thought about using sleep(); but the advantage with alarm is that it waits for the exact number of seconds (when the second turn over from previous to new value) before raising the alarm while i am not sure about sleep taht does that or not.

Possibly related to this previous question, I would like to be able to run a task for a specified amount of time, then stop/kill it, then start it again. Specifically, I run the Folding@Home application on my Linux workstation. Periodically, it will have trouble logging-in to the home server, and will sit idle for a long time, but not release memory/resources it has claimed (yes, I realize this is likely a bug in the tool, but I can't fix that currently). Typically just the act of killing and starting the tool will allow it to check-in again. So, I would like to be able to run something like:
run_for <time> ./fah6
Does such a tool exist, or should I write a wrapper than nukes the fah6 client after, say, a week and restart it?

Boot of a new minimal system hangs on "Stopping save kernel messages" or "stopping system v runlevel compatibility". I have ubuntu minimal iso x86_64 from usb stick created with unetbootin (don't have a cd drive on the machine in question), and after that I didsudo aptitude install gnome-terminal network-manager-gnome gdm geditsudo rebootnever got a system back. Annoyingly I can't boot into the recovery mode either, and it seems the keyboard is only semi-responsive (i.e. many dead keys when at the grub menu).qualms about reinstalling, but I've done this a few times and ended up at the same place every time.

In December I finally filled up my root partition and broke Suse 11.1. I therefore resized my partitions and installed Suse 11.3 on /root. I didn't not touch my /home partition.
I notice that when I leave my machine and come back the screen has locked. I have tried to turn off the screensaver, but it hasn't worked. I have Googled, but unfortunately the screen shots don't look like what I have and the instructions to stop this do not seem to match what I am seeing on the screen.
Is there a way to do this via the command line?

So I want to get mount/umount option under right click services menu. I went to Dolphin -> Settings -> Configure Dolphin -> Services -> Download New Services and from there I installed KDE CDEmu Emulator and MountISO. But neither of them is showing up in actual context menu. Neither in Dolphin -> Settings -> Configure Dolphin -> Services for that matter. I tried to install them as normal user and as a root. I went to have a peak in /usr/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/ but they aren't there as well... It's just me or lots of things seems to be not quite working in 11.3?

I'm confused while trying to fix controls styles (tabs, buttons, scrollbars, main menus, popup menus) of my 3dparty applications in KDE. The problem reflected in the fact that all controls of non-KDE applications (Firefox, Zend Studio, Gimp,..) have Gnome styles. But setted widget style is "Oxygen".I assume that this problem has appeared after installing new fonts in my system.

I am having a problem with sound in a range of applications. Playing an mp3 file is OK for 30 seconds or so, and then it seems to skip and make crackling noises. Stopping and replaying the file causes the same thing to happen again. I have installed all the mp3 codecs so i'm not sure what's going on.

Today Software Update on Fedora 13 listed updates for OpenJDK, SSH protocol, and SE Linux policy configuration. When I clicked on the Install button I was presented with a list of nearly a hundred fonts that Software Update said were required. They were all fonts that I have removed from my computer over and over - fonts for languages that I do not speak and don't want on my computer.
I unchecked the fonts, but Software Update said it could not continue without installing them. Apparently they are dependencies of one or more of the three packages I mentioned above. Is there a way to figure out what package is constantly installing these fonts?
I note that after deleting the fonts I never have any problem with apps failing to run. And if I go to a web page created with a language that requires a particular type of font, Firefox still displays the page with the correct font for that language, even after removing the fonts from my computer. Are they really required?

Fedora automounts my hardisk partitions on the desktop. This creates too much clutter on the desktop. How can I make Fedora stop automounting other partitions. I looked in /etc/fstab, but could not locate any entry relating to this. Any body know how can I achieve this ?

I am setting up a web server and SElinux keeps stopping httpd/appache and making it fail. Everything works fine when SElinux is set to permisive, so I know it is SElinux causing the problem. I have all the apache/httpd items allowed in the SElinux bool and even added the line the troubleshooter told me to add but the problem still persists. Here is what SElinux puts out:
[Code].....
several times and it does nothing. I have all the permissions set to Apache as owner and group and allow execution on all the files.
