I tried installing a wallpaper and it said that I would have to open up a web browser to view it, but when I did it launched over and over again, and I couldn't even properly shutdown, I had to hold down the power button. But it seems fine now, but from now on I'm avoiding downloading Wall Paper that requires you to use a web browser to view and download.
View 1 RepliesFedora 15, fresh install.I changed the wallpaper from default to a solid colour. After switching between gradient to colour the system crashed logged me out and upon logging in it simply runs endlessly accessing my harddisk but never actually loading the desktop.I can kill X and reboot, but it's the same problem waiting for me on restart. I really don't want to re-install or delete users (to put it in context, I just spent 3 days trying to install Fedora because Anaconda doesn't know how to install GRUB correctly).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a tool that can resize images and display them on the root window of an X11 display at a specific coordinates. I can use display from iagemagick like so display -window root -geometry '-0-0' -resize '1920x1080>' IMG.png But cannot use it since it does not display on the right root window -- pseudo transparency in urxvt shows the wrong image as shown here. Ideally, I would like to resize any image bigger than my display. Does anyone know of a too that can do the following: Resize the image if it is bigger than some size (aka the display size). Set the images top appear at specific screen coordinates.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen KDE starts up a new session, it restores the progs that were running at log out last time.I am running skype and that prog is brought back but I suspect that KDE is restarting the "bin" (skype-bin) rather than the startup script (skpe) which contains the necessary "LD_PRELOAD" stuff essential to get the webcam operating OK.I can't find where KDE stores the session info, any ideas?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an Eee PC 1005 dual-booting Windows 7 and openSUSE 11.3. Everything is nice and polished except for one thing.The first tweak I made to the system was the kernel parameter "acpi=Linux" which made the Fn keys work. Then I installed eee-control from the openSUSE Build Service, which worked very well (I was getting a bit frustrated; the source would build and install, but eee-control-daemon would immediately die. Anyway.).
My problem is that when I press the Fn-F2 combo to disable wifi, all mention of wifi completely vanishes from the tray applet. Even when I press Fn-F2 again to turn the radio back on (and the light does cycle like it does in Windows), it is gone. I need to reboot with the radio on, then it works perfectly again, until I press Fn-F2 again.
I just encountered an odd network stack glitch and wondered if anyone has seen this before, or knows what could cause it. When I connect to services on localhost (127.0.0.1) if there is a process listening, it works OK as expected. there is no process listening, I should get a NAK and see a connection refused message.With this glitch, that was not happening. And this was with 127.0.0.1 to 127.0.0.1. Nothing was listening, but the SYN attempts were all that were happening. If there was something listening that worked OK. Connections to other hosts worked as expected.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'd have said SNAFU, but the truth is that I really don't recall this mess being "normal" in Slackware since v7. This kind of mess is what I expect from Ubuntu, not Slack. Here's what happened. I was running Slackware-Current 12/10/10 and wanted to move up to Current 1/10/11. I read and followed the UPGRADE.txt including running "telinit 1". The system had 2 working kernels menued in Lilo, a custom 2.6.35.10 symlinked to "/boot/vmlinuz", and a custom 2.6.36 fully declared in lilo.conf and labelled Current.
The "upgradepkg --install-new" installed a "new" kernel which would only have required a simple deletion, but somehow and for some silly reason my lilo.conf was overwritten and lilo run so that when I selected "Current" instead of my nice 2.6.36, long story short, I got a badly working kernel where my keyboard didn't work.
Why would "upgradepckg --install-new" install an older kernel, and more importantly, instead of merely as an added option, override and ruin my existing, working lilo? Slax is overhauling to add pacman and I see some people even here leaning toward more automated package management in Slackware. What gives? Is Slackware headed down this path? Please, Joe, just tell me it ain't so.

Tri-booting. They were installed in the order I listed above. I ran into a few bugs with Kubuntu, so I no longer want to use it.

I have bash 4.0. I used the following for loop example, but all it outputs is "{1..10} instead of the actual numbers one through ten. why?

I have a server hosting 100+ websites. I need to quickly identify which websites are configured with a database. There are way too many to manually check every website for a PHP file with a database name. So, I created a list of all databases from MySQL and put them in a text file. I then exported the text file to a shell variable and used it in a for loop.
bash variable
Code:
DBLIST=`cat dblist.txt`
Example of $DBLIST
Code:
db1 db_testing2 database_clientname production words4cheap
for loop
Code:
for db in $DBLIST; do find . -type "f" -iname "*.php" -exec grep -i $db '{}' ; -print; done
Note: my find statement starts searching at . which is the directory that contains all of my websites and their data, each website is setup in a sub directory, identified by it's domain name.
Example: I'm in /var/www. Beneath /var/www are a list of directories:
[URL]

I am trying to do some shell programs. I tried some sites regarding the while loop, they give the structure as:
Code:
while [ n1 -lt 500 ]
do
echo $((n1+100))
done
But the below code also worked for me:
Code:
while ((n1 > 500))
do
echo $((n1+100))
done
By using (( )) I could use while, for. But the documentations didnt follow this way. I mainly use this for datastructure programming.
