After trying many diferent LiveCD Distros I found one that is pretty perfect for me, the SLAX one, especially because it gives me the option to start directly on a command line mode (wich is what I'm focusing now). So I'm wondering what others distros have this option at startup. I guess Slackware has this too right? Can you sugest any other distro with that option?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow to configure Linux text console to automatically turn of the monitor after some time? And by "text console" I mean that thing that you get on ctrl+alt+F[1-6], which is what you get whenever X11 is not running. And, no, I'm not using any framebuffer console (it's a plain, good and old 80x25 text-mode). Many years ago, I was using Slackware Linux, and it used to boot up in text-mode. Then you would manually run startx after the login. Anyway, the main login "screen" was the plain text-mode console, and I remember that the monitor used to turn off (energy saving mode, indicated by a blinking LED) after some time. Now I'm using Gentoo, and I have a similar setup.
The machine boots up in text-mode, and only rarely I need to run startx. I say this because this is mostly my personal Linux server, and there is no need to keep X11 running all the time. (which means: I don't want to use GDM/KDM or any other graphical login screen). But now, in this Gentoo text-mode console, the screen goes black after a while, but the monitor does not enter any energy-saving mode (the LED is always lit). Yes, I've waited long enough to verify this. Thus, my question is: how can I configure my current system to behave like the old one? In other words, how to make the text console trigger energy-saving mode of the monitor?
What are the differences between "su -" in a GUI terminal and directly logging in as root in a text mode terminal (tty1-tty6)? Any environment, path or other functionality differences?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've set up a triple boot system (Ubuntu Karmic, Windows Vista and OSX86 -- a patched OS X which works on a PC) on a Dell 9200 (C2D 2.13 GHz, 4GB RAM, nVidia G210). I sue Grub2 as the bootloader and update-grub picks up OS X and it boots without any problem.
However, although when booting OS X using its own Darwin bootloader, I can apply the boot option "Graphics Mode"="1680x1050x32" to ensure that I get the screen resolution that I want, when OS X boots from Grub2, the only resolution available is 1024x768 which is disappointing. I have tried adding gfxmode=1650x1050x32 to the OS X section of /boot/grub/grub.cfg in Ubuntu but this does nothing.

We swapped our 10Gig NIC Cards (Qlogic) with Emulex NIC cards NC550SFP. The server was rebooted and I get the following message:
dmesg | grep -i "emulex"
be2net 0000:18:00.0: Emulex OneConnect 10Gbps NIC initialization failed
be2net 0000:18:00.1: Emulex OneConnect 10Gbps NIC initialization failed
Earlier when there was Qlogic, we configured the two NIC cards for eth2 and eth3.
Now, in order for this server to show up these NICs, I used ifcfg -a and configured ifcfg-eth2 and ifcfg-eth3 and did a service network reload. The interface came up and all worked good.
But after the Qlogic was replaced with the Emulex and when I perform ifcfg -a, I don't see eth2 and eth3 or neither they are shown as some other names such as __tmp. I can't find the MAC addressess that are associated with them.
Is there any way that we can initialize these NIC cards and make them available in ifcfg -a so that, I can edit the mac ids of these NICs and configre ifcfg-eth2 and ifcfg-eth3.
Is there is a way to specify a static IP address in the parameters supplied to the Linux kernel at boot time? I know that I can do it with a start-up script called from my rcS file but it would be really convenient to specify it in my boot parameters.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis started a few days ago and I checked back through recently installed packages and nothing looks related. If I boot into ubuntu normally, plymouth looks a mess, but then things boot fine but while the mouse is showing and ubuntu goes about with connecting to networks and so on, but it doesn't register the and input from the mouse or keyboard. It will sleep if you press the power button, but its no more responsive after waking up.
If I boot into recovery mode, and use the failsafe graphics option then everything runs fine. Apart from 3D graphics being pretty slow, which I can kind of understand. I get the same behaviour on all of the last three kernels. I'm running the latest maverick on an HP 6715b. i386 version although the processor is 64 bit compatible. 2Gb RAM.
