I have fedora installed on my P4. Can anyboy tell me what is the Shortcut/Command for DisablingEnabling GUI on Fedora 8.0 ?
I have figured out that for disabling, we have the shortcut :-
ctrl - alt- f1
To install kde:
Code:
To groupinstall
Code:
Are those correct?
Any other command to install gnome/kde on Fedora?
Every time I need to start or stop Tomcat, I am navigating to:
/Tomcat_Dir/bin
and once I am in the folder I enter:
./Startup.sh
And to stop the server, I navigate to the same directory and enter:
./Shutdown.sh
I was wondering if there was a way in Linux to alias the above described process, so that from any location in the filesystem, I can simply type in something like
StartTomcat or StopTomcat to perform the Startup and Shutdown of the web-server?
For example, I always go to this path:
/user/something/somefolders/somewhere
but I don't want to type
cd
/user/something/somefolders/somewhere
in the terminal all the time, can I have some short hand to do so? for example, can I do something like
cd commandPlace
to replace the path?
When at the command line, I find that I have to type out this command very often: find . -iname "*php" -exec grep -H query {} ; I'd love to set up an alias, script, or shortcut to make it work easier. I would like to do something like: mysearch query ("*php") (.) It would be great if the command could accept three arguments, in reverse order:
query string, file name expression, directory If the second two arguments were omitted they would default to not being included, and the current directory. Finally, the icing on the cake would be that if additional variables were included (4th, 5th, 6th...) they would be injected as additional arguments for the find command (like I could say -type d) at the end. Attempted code I tried the example below, but I'm still having trouble setting default values. What am I doing wrong?
#!/bin/bash
c=${param1+.}
b=${param2+*}
a=${param3+test}
find $c -iname $b -exec grep -H $a {} ;

View 6 Replies View Relatedhow to get a shortcut for opening a terminal as root? I mean something I could put in my gnome panel and then just click and get a dialog asking for the root password. Or maybe just open the terminal and automatically do "su -" (maybe this is easier actually). In Debian/Ubuntu this can be achieved doing "gksu gnome-terminal". In F10 I got it done using beesu, but it doesn't work anymore in F11:

I am attempting to recreate terminal commands with a Fedora desktop launcher shortcut to start x360mediaserve. The commands in the terminal work as below:
Code:
cd /opt/x360mediaserve-0.0.2
./start 192.168.2.126
But attempting to run from a desktop launcher, it doesn't work, with the command line:
Code:
sudo /opt/x360mediaserve-0.0.2/start 192.168.2.126
I have also attempted to create a shell script, from which to launch via desktop launcher:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
cd /opt/x360mediaserve-0.0.2
./start 192.168.2.126
which also doesn't work.
This should be simple, but I just don't see it. KDE 4 desktopI have an application located in /usr/Kompozer that I'd like to add a shortcut to on my desktop. It's not on the menu. Runs fine from the command line. Right clicking on desktop doesn't seem to have what I need. I tried using Dolphin file manager, but still no joy. Can copy, but again can't paste a shortcut on the desktop... or so it seems.

I am trying to start a script via a keyboard shortcut.The trouble is, it runs fine when i start it from the terminal, either by opening a terminal and starting it there or by "double-click", but when I use the shortcut it loads, but doesn't work properly. This is probably because it asks for user input, which would be put in the terminal window.Is there a way to start a script in a terminal window by default?
