I am using Ubuntu 11.04 (in the classic mode)Whenever I double-click my sqldeveloper.sh file, it gives weird errors. When I did :Code:sh /home/uer/Softwares/sqldeveloper/sqldeveloper.sh on the terminal, the program started up. So, I went to the "open with" on the shell file, "Select custom command" and typed the above, but nothing happened. What should I type as the custom command ?

I am having all sorts of trouble trying to assign a variable within an awk script with the system command. I know there is a lot of ways around this problem, but for efficiency reasons, I would like to, within my awk script, do something like
system(x=3)
or
system(x=NR)
and, latter on the shell script which calls the awk script, use the variable $x. But nothing is passed to x. I have already tried things like
command = "x=3"
system(command)
and also used a pipeline within the system to pipe it to /bin/sh In fact tried a lot of stuff like that, using $(( )) etc etc etc I can create directories e write to files (yes, i could write to a file and read from there, but I dont think it is efficient, plus I am puzzled).

I have a custom command I've made to quickly shut down all of my xen instances.
Code:
[root@LCENT02 ~]# virtdown
-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `2'
As you can see it fails when I try to run it on the command line. It is stored in an ~/.env file in my home directory. What is odd to me is if I open the .env file and copy the command from there and paste it into the command line, it does actually work!
Code:
[root@LCENT02 ~]# for i in `virsh list | grep -v -e Id -e --- -e Domain-0 | awk '{print $1}'`; do virsh shutdown $i; done
Domain 1 is being shutdown
Domain 2 is being shutdown
Domain 3 is being shutdown
And this is how I have the command entered into my .env file:
Code:
alias virtdown="for i in `virsh list | grep -v -e Id -e --- -e Domain-0 | awk '{print $1}'`; do virsh shutdown $i; done
Why would this command work if you paste it onto the command line but not use the custom command virtdown?
I am running Fedora 15 and Gnome 3, most of which I like and is working. However I can't seem to add a custom launcher or if I install a application and the .desktop file is created and placed in ~/.local/share/applications the application is not appearing in the search for that application. How do I add a custom application to the list of applications installed?

Seems like such an unbelievably basic question, but a day of google searches as well as directly on this site with key word combinations like "jessie gnome application launch" or "jessie gnome launcher" has only yielded one remark somewhere that the only way to get any kind of custom application launcher working on a gnome 3.14 desktop is to copy an already existing one from an older gnome setup, such as Wheezy.
I know gnome is a bit limited compared to many other desktops, but besides this I consider gnome in Jessie very good and just can't believe the ability to customize application launchers could have really been made completely impossible to do. This single omission alone would make gnome extremely lame in my view, so I sure hope that is not in fact the way it is.
How do I create a custom application launcher in Gnome 3? I used to be able to right click on the panel and choose 'Create custom launcher' in Gnome 2, but that doesn't seem to work here.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am using Ubuntu 10.10 and having trouble setting a custom icon for an application launcher that I created. I have created and SVG file and placed it in /usr/shared/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/ and when I try to select it as the icon for the application launcher, it just goes back to the gnome-panel-launcher.svg default.If I put the SVG file on my desktop and then select it, all is well. I'm assuming this is some type of permission problem, but I cannot seem to figure it out. I have set the permissions to be identical to the other icons in /usr/shared/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/, but have no luck doing that either.

I am going to compile and install my first linux application from the command line. The program is the port scanner program NMAP, and I am looking at the documentation to learn how to do it. I saw this thread [URL], and I just want to make sure I understand what it is I'm doing.
bzip2 -cd nmap-5.35DC1.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -
cd nmap-5.35DC1
./configure
make
su root
make install
"bzip2 -cd nmap-5.35DC1.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -"
Here I am calling the bzip2 program to work with a specified file. look for the file nmap-5.35DC1.tar.bz2 in the current diretory (-cd) and to pipe (redirect) something, this is where I get lost, I think. And I know what x & v mean but not f, or what that has to do with the previous commands.
cd nmap-5.35DC1
Chage to the named directory.
./configure
I assume this is a command?
make
Builds an executable
su root
make install
not sure what the difference is between this and the above.
Consider that I am building my application in Linux shell using make command but somehow the build fails. Is there any way I can find out that the build has failed (of course looking at shell for error messages will do the job for me but I don't want that). Is there any flag make or shell will set/reset if such failure occurs ?

I am using linux mint and have installed Netbeans on it but whenever I run netbeans from accounts other than root it throws an error for not having permission to start glassfish server of netbeans.

I recently managed to compile and install audacious 2.4.0 successfully. I prefer to browse my music folders and double click on the song I wish to play rather than use "open files" within audacious. It works fine to open the first mp3 but when I click to play another song instead of stopping the first one, it opens another instance of audacious and now both songs are playing. When I go into the properties of an mp3 and select open with > "other application" > audacious then click "Use a custom command" the following is in the box /usr/local/bin/audacious %f. is there any custom command I could use so that when I click another song audacious stops the currently playing song and plays the new one, without opening another instance?
