General :: Run Single Application Off Of Boot

Aug 8, 2011

I'm trying to run a Linux application and all I want to run is this one application off of boot. I need networking and that's all (no display, peripherals, etc.). I want no other applications running so that the application I run has 100% of the CPU. Is this possible?

General :: Single Application Through OpenVPN Tunnel (Debian Lenny)?

Jan 25, 2010

I'm using Debian Lenny and I want to tunnel rtorrent only through a OpenVPN tunnel. I have a tunnel running, the config file looks like this:

client
dev tun
proto udp
remote openvpn.xxx.com 1194
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun

[Code]...

My idea is that I could run a sockd proxy internally that redirects traffic to the openvpn tunnel. I could use the *nix "proxifier" application "tsocks" to make it possible for rtorrent to connect through that proxy (as rtorrent doesn't support proxies). I have trouble configuring sockd as my IP inside the VPN changes every time I connect. This is a config file someone said would help:[URl].. As my IP changes at each connect I don't know what to put in that config file. I have no control over the host side config file.

General :: Starting Application On Boot?

Dec 11, 2010

I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed on my pc with XBMC installed. It's set to boot into xbmc on start up and works fine. I also have squeezebox server (a music server for my network) installed and again don't have any trouble. I'd now like to get squeezeslave running, a client for squeezebox server so I added the following lines to /etc/init.d/local:

#!/bin/sh
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin
squeezeslave -o0 -r3 192.168.1.3 &
exit 0

This fails to start the client on boot, however if I ssh into the machine and run /etc/init.d/local it runs fine.

General :: Run Application Or Boot As Specific User

Apr 18, 2010

I have a need to run a specific app as a specific user when the machine boots into init 3. I can not run this as root so I need to specify a user. Can someone tell me how to accomplish this?I usually have to log in and start this application by typing check -D which starts this app and daemonizes it. I want to be able to run that at boot with my normal user not root.I hope I explained this correctly.I have added it to rc.local but it runs as root.

Ubuntu Installation :: Grub2 - Turning A Dual Boot Into Single Boot?

Feb 10, 2010

I recently got a netbook and setup as dual boot between win7 starter and 9.10 (64bit). Win 7 starter is not impressive so i want to nuke it and give the space all to my /USR partion. I am comfortable working with Gparted and assume that i can launch using my gparted live usb and delete the windows partion and then resize the /usr partion.

what changes do i need to make w/ Grub2? I would prefer not to see the Grub menu at all and have it load right the main kernel if possible. Also, if this is possible is there a way to get to the Grub menu during boot should i need to select a different kernel?

Ubuntu :: Dual Boot To Single Boot, Removing Windows?

Sep 4, 2010

I've got a win7/ubuntu 10.04 dual boot running on my system. I did the usual of installing 7 first, then ubuntu and using it as the default boot option. I now want to get rid of win 7 and expand the ubuntu installation into the free space. My current hdd structure is in the attachment. If I just boot a live cd and gparted to remove the win 7 partitions and expand the ubuntu installation into the free space, will that work or will it have a massive panic? how to I get grub to silently boot after without offering me any boot options?

General :: Fedora - Boot Direct To Application On Console With No Login?

Apr 19, 2010

I have a need to start an application on bootup on the linux console and I do not have a need for any type of login or security. I do not need any ALT-F1,F2,etc virtual consoles but I would like to allow SSH access via the network port for debugging, loading, etc.

The application is a SDL graphics program running with fbcon as the SDL_VIDEODRIVER if that matters. I'm currently using Fedora 10 and 12 but any distro that supports SDL using the fbcon framebuffer would be acceptable.

Software :: "Single-Application Mode" In Debian?

Apr 19, 2010

There's this feature in MacOSX called "Single application mode", that makes it so only one window shows up. I was looking at ratpoison, but that doesn't allow the panel to run. What I would want is for my KDE-Dock and the menubar to stay, but only one "main" app loads at a time [the rest are "hidden", not minimized, either]. is this possible?

Ubuntu :: Application That Plays Single Rar Files Containing Mp3 Files?

May 21, 2011

On Windows I've been using XMPlayer for that purpose. XMPlayer has got a rar plugin and it works as expected.I stumbled across this plugin for Audacious but I'm not sure it's relatedhttp://kittylambda.com/rsn_plugin_for_audaciousI've ran XMPlay succesfully with wine with the rar plugin and it actually works (a bit slower but it works). But what I'm missing is integration with nautilus since drag and drop won't work from nautilus to XMPlayer. I have to navigate to the rar file manually on the file-open window and since Nautilus puts it's mounts on /home/[username]/.gvfsit's a bit cumbersome.

General :: Application Called Impact - Paths In Java Application ?

Apr 14, 2010

So, I have this application called Impact, it is an explicit time integration Finite Elements code written in Java...

[url]

I untar the pack, and launch the application calling a script, from within the untarred folder,

Code:

This launches a gui which allows me to setup a case, which needs some setup file, tipically some *.in and a mesh file, tipically some *.msh.

Other mode of executuion consists of calling the setup file as argument to Impact.sh script ( CLI execution mode, for g33k5 )

My problem is : I have packed the whole stuff into a Slackware .tgz, that places it in /usr/local/Impact, and placed a calling script in /usr/local/bin,

Code:

Code:

I decided to hack the ImpactGUI_OGL_linux_amd64.sh script from

Code:

Code:

no avail,

Code:

even after adding /usr/local/Impact/bin to PATH... won't go...

I can run this thing from within its directory... but I do not like messing within the directories of my applications, this is why I sent this to /usr/local, and placed a calling script in /usr/local/bin...

Ubuntu :: Always Going Single User After Boot?

Nov 22, 2010

I'm running mythbuntu on 10.04 with an AMD athlon and nvidia geforce4 (nvidia-96) graphics. Shortly into the boot procedure, the system appears to switch into single user mode, killing all the processes I want running and dropping me into the recovery menu.

On 20 Nov I was having problems booting the system, which I traced to a probably loose sata cable to the (single) hard drive. While working on this I performed a normal system update, and then started having the problem described above. the update included

menu 2.1.43ubuntu1
libc-bin 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.5
plymouth 0.8.2-2ubuntu2.1
grub-pc 1.98-1ubuntu8
xserver-xorg-core 2:1.7.6-2ubuntu7.4
initramfs-tools 0.92bubuntu78

[Code]...

OpenSUSE Install :: Can't Boot To Single User

Jul 3, 2009

No idea why this happens but on a couple of systems I'm unable to boot into single user, either as runlevel S or runlevel 1. This is true for the Failsafe image and the regular system image alike.

The major symptom is that it seems the initrd image is started and then the system hangs when it tries to transfer control to the inittab.

I am able to boot into the system with runlevel 2 or higher. I am also able to boot into the single-user rescue DVD image.

how to add the rescue DVD boot image to my secondary IDE drive so that I have a guaranteed way into the system?

Ubuntu Installation :: 9.10 - Dual Boot To Single OS

Jan 16, 2010

I currently have a dual boot of Windows Vista and Ubuntu 9.10. I only had Vista purely for playing games, and using certain applications, but recently I decided that I could just configure Wine to work on my system. I was wondering if it was possible to extend the Ubuntu partition as it is over the whole drive, so that I don't lose all my stuff from Ubuntu. Or should I just keep it dual boot, for those few programs that Wine doesn't have quite down? I know this might not have much to do with anything, but I have an NVidia GFX card.

Ubuntu / Apple :: Reinstall Mac OS X On A Single Boot?

I'm trying to reinstall Mac OS X on a single boot Linux powerbook, but have no idea what to do because to my understanding ubuntu wont read a .DMG file, does this means that I have to burn it? Or maybe convert into an .ISO and then burn? Or can it be done from within the machine from an .ISO?

Ubuntu / Apple :: Single Boot On Macbook Pro ?

Jun 16, 2010

I've recently wiped by hard drive of mac osx and installed ubuntu. My problem is that i have no proprietary drivers and i cant get internet (wired and wireless) to work. I was wondering if this problem could be due to the fact that i dont have drivers for my ethernet.

I also had a slight problem when installed ubuntu. The install itself when through fine, but after completion, i received a prompt saying that I needed to restart. after clicking ok to restart, i received a string of error, and my cd ejected. when i retstarted after that, ubuntu loaded fine, but no wired or wireless internet for me.

I've reinstalled a few times and i have the same problem. Everyone i talk to says its strange that ethernet doesnt work.

Ubuntu :: Dual To Single Boot Separate HDs

Jul 25, 2010

I have two hard drives one with Windows XP and one with Ubuntu 10.04. The hard drive with Windows XP has been dying out slowly over the last week thankfully I backed up all my important information. The problem is that now that the Win XP hard drive is dead I can't boot into Ubuntu nothing pops up just the blinking cursor. I believe this is because when I installed ubuntu the Windows XP HD was already in the first slot and may have all the boot information. I have the LiveCD and can boot into that successfully.

Fedora :: Dual Boot Single Hard Drive Off USB

Oct 5, 2010

I currently have Windows 7 installed on my laptop and I would like to dual boot w/ Fedora on the same hdd.I have two NTSF partitions, I shrunk my D drive 50GB for ext4 & swap.I've tried both liveusb-created & unetbootin to create a bootable USB to install Fedora.Anaconda starts up and I get through most of the install configuration, I set up GRUB & the partitions. Once I proceed to the next screen I get missing ISO image 9660 error My laptop doesn't have a DVD drive. It seems like a lot of people are getting this error, but I have found no concrete solution though.

How do I put the image on the drive? Windows can't read ext4 and I haven't been able to find a program that can.I have a USB to SATA adapter that I could hook up a DVD-ROM drive too, but I don't know if fedora will pick up on it.

Ubuntu :: Dual Boot With Single /Home Partition?

Mar 5, 2010

Situation:
8GB SSD
#! on a 3.7GB partition, only 2.5GB used
Kuki (XFCE) on a 3.4GB partition, about 3GB used)

Both have their own /home folders within their individual /, but since I don't use this computer for documents/personal files, I figured it may be an idea to keep a 1GB partition just for my Home folder which would work for both distros. Both distros are Ubuntu based. Crunchbang uses Openbox, Kuki uses XFCE. They both are running the same kernel right now too in fact. I know how to use Gparted to create the spare 1GB partition, but I'm not sure how to get both distros to move their /home over there. I have the same usernames on each distros.

Apr 10, 2010

I need to recover the root password or reset it. For this, I am trying to follow the following steps to get into the single-user mode & where exactly I am getting stuck: 1. Reboot the machine2. Press <esc>3. At the boot loader screen, i have 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server ($version info)' highlighted. 4. Simply pressing 'e' (for editing) does not work (does nothing). 5. I have the option to press 'p' to enter boot-loader password and then go into the single user mode.What if I don't know the boot loader password as well & I want to get into the single-user mode WITHOUT using a boot CD? Is this possible? If so, please share the procedure to do so.

Fedora Installation :: Windows 7 And F10 Dual-boot Single Drive?

Feb 1, 2009

After going back & forth between win7b & F10 installs, I can't get both to live on the same hard disk for dual booting anymore. win7 complains about fedora's GPT disk being unacceptable for installation. win7 blows away fedora's GPT partitions when it installs. Fedora doesn't recognize win7 partitions when it installs. I can't specify exact partition boundaries with windows even if I know what they are, and I can't seem to find any info how to do it in parted either. I have win7 installed in partition 3 in a known location on disk, but if I reinstall f10 (again), it's going to blow away the win7 boot data on the disk. How do I tell grub where to find the chainloader thingy? Can that still even be used? win7 no longer uses ntldr, and I haven't found an updated procedure for this new boot method.
