Fedora :: View The Startup Programs Of Init Whenever Boot Up?

Aug 26, 2010

I am trying to view the startup programs of init whenever I boot up, but don't know how to edit /etc/inittab file. I am running Fedora FC13 and my runlevel is 3. I have the following in my inittab file:

Quote:
#
# inittab This file describes how the INIT process should set up
# the system in a certain run-level.

Programming :: Startup Scripts In Init.d Disappear After Boot Up

Jul 8, 2010

I'm running a Debian based Linux compiled for ARM9 hardware. I am trying to auto start a process on bootup but occasionally I find that my startup script becomes empty (i.e. the file still exists but has not data). The script is located in /etc/init.d/S91-sercom

Here's the script:

Code:
#!/bin/sh # /etc/init.d/S91-sercom
# Start the Serial Communication Protocol Program at boot
echo "Starting Serial Communication"

Fedora Networking :: Setup Pppd On Startup With Init.d Script For Vpn?

Apr 3, 2011

I can connect to Strongvpn (pptp) through command line call 'sudo pppd call stongvpn' followed by' route add default dev ppp0'. Everything works well.I would like to set this up on start up. I use kde. I have set up basic /etc/init.d/strongvpn script which gets called at boot and creates ppp0 but the route command does not seem to work. When I use command route add in terminal the connection comes up.Here's my /etc/init.d script

#!/bin/bash
# chkconfig: 345 85 15
pppd call strongvpn

Fedora :: Can't Boot System Even Into Init Mode 3?

Jun 24, 2011

I upgraded to Fedora 15 using preupgrade after I failed to upgrade or install it clean through DVD. But, after the preupgrade process finished, I can't boot my system even into init mode 3. I am able to boot into the init mode 1 and can see that many of the packages have been upgraded to fc15. I tried to start the x server from init mode 1. My nVidia screen even popped up. But after that the screen went totally blanked.

Ubuntu :: Wont Boot - "no Init Found. Try Passing Init=bootarg"

Jan 31, 2011

While I was using my computer a few days ago, the terminal stopped working properly, so I tried to reboot, and when it started up again it wouldn't boot and said "no init found. try passing init=bootarg"

This has happened twice before, so I really need to figure out what keeps happening, otherwise I can't continue to use linux. i reinstalled both times before. i think that this is caused by a process that prevents me from using the hard drive, because when I try to check the disk in the terminal or in gparted, it says Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda1. Filesystem mounted or opened exclusively by another program?

Also, in the disk utility, in the lower right corner of the filesystem it has a spinning "loading wheel".(i'm not sure if that means anything)

I am using ubuntu 10.10, but am not sure what kernel I am using, but i tried a few different kernel options(there's three of them at start up). safe mode does not work either.

Ubuntu :: Init.d Startup Script ?

Oct 24, 2010

I have a startup bash script to give the user options at startup (launch firefox etc), however it causes ubuntu to hang on the loading screen with red things at startup. I dropped into command line and removed it, so that is definitely the problem. The script works...does anyone know if having a startup script in init.d can open a terminal to interact with the user, and why this script causes ubuntu to be unable to startup?

Ubuntu :: /etc/init.d Script Not Loading On Startup?

Jul 14, 2011

I fear I may have missed something simple, but I have a "miner" under /etc/init.d

Code:
#!/bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: Miner
# Required-Start: $all
# Required-Stop: $all

[Code].....

I can also manually can start, stop, and restart on it. However, it does not launch on startup. I can find no messages in /var/log/syslog showing any attempt to start it. Did I miss a step?

FYI: uname -a Linux wrath 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:50 UTC 2011 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

General :: Ubuntu Init.d Script Not Being Called On Startup

Oct 29, 2010

I've got a script in ubuntu 9.04 in init.d that I've set to run on start on with update-rc.d using update-rc.d init_test defaults 99. All of the symlinks are there and the permissions appear to be correct

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 642 2010-10-28 16:44 init_test
mike@xxxxxxxxxx:~$ find /etc -name S99* | grep init_test
find: /etc/rc5.d/S99init_test

[code]....

The script runs through source and ./ without issue and behaves correctly. Here is the source of the script:

#!/bin/bash
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: init test script

[code]....

When the machine starts, I don't see "script called" or "start called" in the test.log at all.

Ubuntu :: Can't Edit Or Add Startup Programs?

Jan 6, 2010

I'd like you to know that I'm completely new to ubuntu. Just install it a couple of days ago. I have a bit problem with startup here, everytime I change anything in System > Preferences > Startup Applications it just keep coming back to default. I unchecked Penmount Utility, and it's checked again after next boot. Same thing happen when I add Guake Terminal. When I reboot, it's not there anymore. So basically, it seems that I can't configure my startup programs.

Ubuntu :: 10.10 Launches Many Programs On Startup?

Oct 23, 2010

I installed 10.10 yesterday, and now whenever I boot my computer it launches 3 or 4 windows on startup for apps that usually run in the tray (Rhythmbox, Pidgin, Skype, and the mounter for my memory card). I was wondering if there is a way to just launch the programs to the tray. It worked perfectly in Lucid.

Ubuntu :: Where To Find Startup Programs

Jan 1, 2011

I have somehow gotten two instances of Mediatomb running on my Ubuntu 10.04.1 how to get rid of one of them.There is one copy running as a daemon on system startup - that's the one I want to keep.There is another copy running when I log in with my user account - this is the one I want to prevent from running.I have looked in my Startup folder in the GUI and also in my .profile script for my user account but I don't see any references to mediatomb there. Where else should I look?I think the daemon version is running via an entry in init.d, but other than where I've already looked I don't know how to find out how the second copy is getting initiated during login. It only seems to show up when I log in to the GUI on Ubuntu - not when I connect to the machine remotely via SSH.

Ubuntu :: Add Startup Programs In Sessions?

Mar 10, 2009

I am following directions to set up my Ubuntu Installation (8.10) for Netbook Remix. As part of the directions it asks me at the end to:

Add netbook-launcher (if using 8.10) to your startup programs. Go to System>Preferences>Sessions and add entry for this command.

I went to sessions to do it and see Netbook Launcher listed and selected to add it but it prompts me with the following menu:

Name
Command
Comment

What do I put in these blanks so that I can set this up? For Command it gives me the option to browse.

Ubuntu :: Unable To Add/remove Startup Programs

Jan 21, 2010

I'm unable to change startup programs. If I try and add or remove a program, any changes I have made seem to undo themselves. I suspect it might have something to do with being unable to save the session, but I really don't have a clue.

Just in case it makes a difference: I'm actually running Mint (Helena).

Ubuntu :: How To Disable Some Default Startup Programs

I recently made the switch from gnome to kde. After struggling for two straight days I finally have everything the way I want, and I must say that I am quite pleased with Kde. The one thing I want to do now is get my computer to start up without running printer applets and bluetooth and all that other stuff I don't need. I have had little luck finding any info on this one.

Ubuntu :: 10.10 Startup Programs / Won't Load Preferences

Mar 16, 2011

I've found mentions of this problem in Lucid Lynx, but this is a recent development for my system, since I've been running Ubuntu since Gutsy Gibbon.On start up my gdm theme/icons appear for a second, but by the time I've entered my keyring password the theme reverts to the system default (what Synaptic package manager looks like). It also does not load my start up programs Gnome-Do and Screenlets. My theme only appears if I go into the Appearances menu, and Gnome-Do only starts if I pick it from the Accessories menu (and I've gone into Gnome-Do's preferences and clicked on "start GNOME-DO at login"). About once in a blue moon it will load everything correctly.

Ubuntu :: Delaying Startup Of Automatically Started Programs?

May 16, 2010

Recently I have had a run of random errors on boot up. Finally, the quit button, top right of the screen disappeared permanently. I am convinced it is because I added Evolution to the programs that start automatically when I login to Ubuntu (auto login). Evolution uses the Internet connection which hasn't been successfully established by the time it starts. In the past, this would crash Ubuntu. It seemed to be fixed by this stage, but maybe not. Is there some way of delaying the startup of a program in the automatic startup list - to give the rest of everything time to settle in - before it starts trying to use other startup resources?

Ubuntu :: Put Frequently Used Programs In Ram For Faster Startup Time?

Jun 12, 2010

I was wondering if there is any tool or program that stores a copy of frequently used files eg. Binarys, program library's etc. in memory so when they are requested by the OS they load instantly. I'm asking because I have a system with plenty of ram but very slow hard disks. Having programs like opera and java/eclipse load from ram would greatly speed up their start time. Ideally they would be loaded into ram in the background after I log in. Of course all writes made to these files would have to be made to the files on disk for obvious reasons.I don't want the entire OS in ram because it will not fit, just frequently accessed files.

Ubuntu :: Running Old Script Instead Of Updated Init.d Script On Startup

May 27, 2011

i wrote a script and placed it in init.d some time ago to run on system startup. that all works well and good. but now i have changed the script (all i basically did was add the line echo 'afasdfasdfsf' > /tmp/x at the start), and the problem is that when i reboot, the old script still seems to be running (ie nothing shows up in /tmp/x). is this a standard feature of ubuntu and i simply need to reload the new script into some sort of cache?
