Is there any way to disable the escape sequence in screen, so the user can't escape and run commands? we have a program that runs under user "shop". We want to wrap it in a screen session, and use .screenrc to set it multiuser and allow the "dev" user to connect to it. Then, if the "shop" user loses his connection, the session will stay running, and then the "dev" user can attach to the session and end it. We want the "shop" user to be unable to enter any "screen" commands.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been having a problem with every Ubuntu version I have used where the screen blanks automatically after a few minutes when the computer is left alone.I have set all the settings in the system BIOS and power management settings to disable screen saving features. The screen saver options are set to the following: Pictures Folder, Idle after 2 hours, Activate when Idle unchecked.Require password is checked.
These are my settings, but in about 10 minutes of not being touched, each computer goes to a blank screen and I have to use my password to get back to the desktop.I originally installed Ubuntu 8.04.3 on my desktop, and I installed Ubuntu 9.10 on one of my laptop computers. I have sense upgraded the desktop to 9.10 and then to 10.04.I updated the first laptop to 10.04 and freshly installed 10.04 onto another laptop.I am having this same problem on all three computers and had the problem on each computer from the beginning.I ran update manager today about an hour ago and have not tested this problem, but I expect it is still there. I created a document with nothing but the time and left it on the laptop. I will see how long it takes for the screen blanker to activate.I searched the forum and found two unrelated problems, one of which was the opposite, someone who could not get the screen saver to activate.
I have Ubuntu Natty with Gnome.The problem is if I go away, the screen has be locked and if I'm back, then I must put a password to unlock

After some time I've been not typing any key the screen-saver starts, but it is malfunctioning because it gradually blanks the screen and does not allow me to take control of the system again. So I ask you how to disable this screen-saver or enable another one that works.

I'd like to disable the log-in screen sound. Not after you log on. Since it's my laptop I can't just switch a knob or press the off button. The function keys don't work before log-in.. Well not for sound at least.. I guess you could say it's a bug.. unless it was intended. Anyway, without filling a bug report how can I disable sound @ the login screen?

View 3 Replies View RelatedThe X server in Debian seems to have a "funny" habit to suddenly start blanking the screen if I don't touch the mouse or the keyboard for a while, although I've used the xset command (xset -dpms s off) in my ~/.xinitrc to tell Xorg specifically NOT to blank the screen. I know how to disable screen blanking in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but I'd rather not have the xorg.conf file at all.
So, I'd be interested to hear your suggestions about how to disable the Xorg screen blanking without using the xset command or the xorg.conf file. Is there some other file in /etc/X11/ that I could tweak to disable this highly annoying desire of Xorg to insist on blanking my screen after a bit of idle time?
I am looking to disable my start-up splash screen and shut-down splash screen. I have modified my /etc/grub.conf file by changing:
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
to
#splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
I have my headless server, and just plugged a spare monitor into it, opened up screen, ran htop on it, so I can see the system status, but the screen keeps shutting off after so long. The only way to "wake it up", is to use a local keypress (which means I have to hook a keyboard back up to it). I have already tried 'setterm -powersave off -powerdown 0', but it didn't affect it any. Is there any way to disable this powersaving mode?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a question here. Prologue: When I open Synaptic Package Manager via Gnome Menu, password-request screen appear, screen dimmed, and I'm unable to react with another windows.
Can I have this effect to another applications, I meant that when I open the application, screen dimmed and I'm unable to react with another windows.
I recently upgraded from Lucid to Maverick I can't seem to disable screen lock after resume from suspend. It's a minor annoyance, but still a considerable annoyance to have to enter my password every time the computer wakes up.
I've thusfar
1 - changed screensaver preferences to not lock
2 - set the gnome_keyring_hibernate, gnome_keyring_suspend, hibernate, and suspend, values all to false in gconf-editor
3 - commented out the line LOCK_SCREEN=true in /etc/default/acpi-support
BUT am still being prompted for a password every time the computer wakes up from suspend. I'm stumped, what could I be forgetting?
Anyone else have this problem? I've checked the "Disable screen saver while playing movies" checkbox, but my screen still fades to blank after 10 minutes.This doesn't happen in VLC, but VLC is giving another whole problem[URL]

View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to use my second monitor with my Slackware (Laptop) setup but they are different sizes/resolutions.
This is no problem with KDE but before X is started and when X ends there are big issues with the TTY0 console being distorted.
Is it possible to disable the second monitor when X is not running?
(Slackware64Current, ATI Mobility Radeon HD3200 card)
I essentially want the second monitor to activate ONLY in the event of an X Session and turn off when X halts.
