I'm building a Cluster with 20 small Compaq ipaq PC's as the nodes. I have absolutely no room for any keyboards on this cluster. The PC's require a keyboard to boot, and there are no BIOS settings I can adjust to fix this problem, and no BIOS updates. I have found a small DOS .com program by Compaq called NO_F1.com it's designed to allow the computer to continue to boot without a keyboard. it's only 172 bytes in size. It sets a bit in the CMOS which allows the boot process to continue without a keyboard. It does not permanently set anything, so it needs to run each time the computer starts.
Is there any way I can execute this program very early in the boot process every time the node boots ? I thought about dissembling the program and trying to modify the boot loader, or some other ASM program, the program is only 172 bytes. But thats really over my head. What could I try, I don't know what to do. Also, I have no floppy drive and no CD drive to boot from, only USB or hard drive.
i'm trying to automate terminal commands to execute at startup (rc5)one is a background process: Code: xinput set-int-prop "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" "Two-Finger Scrolling" 8 1 the other is a gui application: Code: /home/labr/apps/gmail-notify/notifier.py i placed these commands in /etc/rc.local but does nothing.

Code:
The above code does not work, as I think it would take the whole first and second fields as the input for one particular instance of the program 'inputbashangle'.

I downloaded Blender2.59 and it comes as an executable and some lib files etc. I want to move them to their appropriate folders Since I want want to have to run the program from the terminal.
blender to usr/bin
libs to usr/lib

I was wondering if it was possible to execute a program from RAM, like having the file data in a bash script variable and then running it.
Something like this:
ls=`cat ls`
$ls
So is it possible to run a program without touching the hard disk and without creating tmpfs or ramfs (it would need to be standard user privileges).
I'd like to run a program [URL] from the GUI menu (yes, I know I can run it from the command line). I've gotten this to work by using a menu entry (see attached screenshot).The command is:
Code:
gksu chkrootkit
with the option for Type: was selected as Application in Terminal However, when chkrootkit is finished, the terminal immediately snaps shut according to the profile selection: When Commands Exits: Close terminal What I'd like to do is create another profile that causes the terminal to be held open (see screenshot) when the command exits and be able to choose that profile from the GUI Menu entry. I believe the command when using the CLI is:
Code:
gnome-terminal --profile=<profile_name>
how do I incorporate this within the Command entry line of the launcher?

I am currently trying to set up a media PC running Ubuntu in my living room..I plan to be using XMBC to play my music and videos using a Xbox 360 joypad. I have managed to get 'qjoypad' working so on the desktop the controller controls the mouse, I have also made a little script so that when XMBC opens, 'qjoypad' changes its key mappings to a different profile. However when I exit XMBC, I would like it to return to the default profile, is there any way of doing this?

I googled around and couldnt find what I was looking for. Maybe I used the wrong search terms, but whatever. I was wondering if there was a possibility to execute a series of terminal commands just by double-clicking an icon. For example, there would be an icon on my desktop, and if I were to doubleclick it, it would execute "cd ~/.wine2" and then "WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine2" wine program.exe".
I realise that most of you will probably go "duh, that's simple" or something similar, but I am extremely new to ubuntu, and dont know my way around yet.
so i followed the directions on the MagicQ website, but when I try to execute the magicq file in the terminal it says that it is not a command. I figured this when i unpacked it, but i think that i am missing something..
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to execute an already written C program that I am running on my embedded Linux, but from afar - through a HTML page. I am running an embedded Linux on my FPGA prototype board with a MicroBlaze soft processor. On this Linux i am running a httpd web server - I can serve html web pages to the outside through Ethernet connection. Now, I have a program written in C in this embedded Linux in /bin/gpio-test that does some stuff with my IO devices. Now I would like to control these IO devices through HTML web page - so I would like to be able to run this gpio-test program from a html web page and possibly send the program some parameters.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI want to execute a program at the very last step of Linux boot process. For Debian based Linux distro that uses BSD boot process, I came up with 2 solutions:
1) I should somehow call my program from the /etc/rc.local script (although is this the last step of the boot process?)
2) Use the "multi_end" and "sysinit_end" hooks for executing it at the end of rc.multi rc.sysinit respectively (I don't know how to do it though).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been given one of these ubiquitous usb-sleep buttons which is basically a supersimple usb-keyboard. It's a big button that sends a SLEEP keypress to the computer when you slam it. But that is pretty boring. I'd love to remap it to do something more fun but I can't figure out how to bind to only the sleep press from the button and not from my ordinary keyboard.
The button identifies as
Bus 001 Device 035: ID 1130:600d Tenx Technology, Inc.
I'd like to know if there's either
a way of mapping a key from a specific keyboard to an action OR a way of remapping the sleep key from a specific keyboard to a new key-code or something like that.
I'm running WoW through wine. In order to install addons I need to give all the files in the program permission to execute as a program. the problem is I can't (dont know how) just right click the folder and give everything inside permission i have to open each one and give them all permission, which can quickly turn into hundreds depending on the addon. how to give permission to execute as a program to all the files in a folder at once it would save me a lot of clicking and time.

What is the best program to use to monitor a directory and execute a script when a new file is dropped in the directory? I've searched Google and just can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I would like to execute a shell script after a .CSV file is moved to a certain directory to generate a chart of the data contained in that file. I've got the script, now I only need to know how to execute it when a new CSV file is dropped into the directory. The Linux Distribution is RHEL 5.
