there's a little app called F.Lux that sets your screen temperature based on the time of day. The Linux version is a little spartan with just a console interface but it works perfectly well. The question I have is where can I invoke it so that it starts up after X has started?
View 4 RepliesI'd like to make all window of of all applications are located in the center of screen when they are started every single time, is there any way to do that ? of course,what i am saying that they are GUI apps, and when they are not started as maximum size window

I installed the .debs the first time and thought it might be wiser to install it from the experimental repos.So I reinstalled but there's no difference,I keep getting the error.
I reinstalled and found that the same error is caused by the installation for the dictionaries.I removed those but the error is still present.
I've seen people post this error on some forums except context=user and not bundle.However,it seems those were Windows 7 machines and that it's a 64 bit bug.
I'm also running the 64 bit version.
Also,if I try to install the desktop-integration .debs I get another error ( that is,if I remove the dictionaries,otherwise the installation runs just fine ) :

I am running Slackware -current and am using kde as my desktop environment. I'm not sure if this is a feature that I turned on my accident or a bug but its really annoying. When I start any program on the computer and it goes into the Task manager bar. If I click the bar to maximize the program or window it goes to the kde log on window. I am running KDE version 4.5.4.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently installed KDE in my ubuntu 10.10. To access KDE, I want to use
startx /usr/bin/startkdeBut using it disables sound in KDE (Sound is working fine in GNOME). It doesn't sound for anything like login sound, totem, mplayer or any other playerBut when I press Alt+Ctrl+F1 to change to virtual console, the playback resumes from where it was in time and when coming back Alt+Ctrl+F7 and the time in totem (or any other player) doesn't move. While log out also it doesn't play logout sound and doesn't logout, so I have to press Ctrl+Alt+F1 so that logout sound play then it exits.When starting KDE by kdm or gdm, the sound works normally. But I don't want to login again using kdm or gdm and not to use root user to start kdm or gdm.I don't know what is the difference between when KDE is started by startx or by kdm/gdm where the same user login in kdm/gdm as that for startx

Can I program a key to turn my computer on?
My Start up button ribbon keeps slipping out of the lock gate?
I just installed TuxGuitar - very cool - and to get the sound to work I had to install Timidity++ as well. Before I start TuxGuitar I have to execute:timidity -iA -Osin a terminal window first, which is kind of a pain to do every time I run TuxGuitar.How do I get this line to execute on startup such that timidity is running when I start up? I tried adding that line to rc.local

I'm trying to ensure an app starts on boot up but after MySQL has been started. I can't however locate where MySQL is being started. If I do a chkconfig, it says MySQL is off, yet I can readily access my databases with phpmyadmin.If I look at my boot log, I can see it says MySQL Server is started, right after Apache2 is started.In my rc5.d directory, I only see a symbolic link for Apache2 but nothing for MySQL. The startup script for MySQL appears in /etc/init.d.rc.local has got nothing in it but comments. So it appears to me like it's being run on startup, but not as a service. But I have next to no knowledge of Linux so don't put too much belief in that.I would have originally installed MySQL via apt-get.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy problem is that my fan will keep running quite quickly once started. It will keep running till reboot independently of CPU usage and temperature. To check the temperature I installed lm-sensors. Output of temperature related commands and kernel version are below. Shouldnt they all give the temperature? My machine is a Toshiba Satellite pro L300. Eg. at the moment my fan is running quite quickly although CPU usage is 3-4% and the temperature according to lm-sensors is approximately 40-45 degrees Celcius.

Battery 0: Full, 100%

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've run into what is apparently an age-old SSH problem, which is that killing an ssh client process does not kill the remote process (unlike e.g. rsh). There seem to be lots of patches and a couple of open bugs on this topic that have been there for about 10 years or so... Having convinced myself by googling that there is no easy solution, I'm now looking for a workaround of some sort. I'm writing a testing framework so the processes I'm running remotely could be anything at all, i.e. I only have control of the client side. Also the remote processes are of course highly unstable and I need to be able to terminate them if they hang. ssh -t won't work for me as I don't necessarily have a terminal. Finding the remote process ID would be enough so I can do ssh <machine> kill <pid>, but I don't see any way to do that either. Just using ps, pgrep etc seems to suffer from not being able to uniquely identify the correct process, and killing the wrong process is of course very bad.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a laptop with SuSE 11.2 installed, worked all like a charm.Then the problems started :I lost my display (it is dark, you can see very very faint the desktop from time to time)Clearly a hardware problem.So, I attached an external screen. Only this shows nothing, cannot get it activated.Since the laptop automatically boots into our LAN, i just started it, and connected via SSH from an other computer.No problem i have a shell.Then I thought to be clever, and activated the pure-ftp demon, so I can download all interesting files to a new computer. I activated it with / as shared directory.After that, I could not boot the laptop anymore, it did not connect to the network.
After a lot of try-outs I finally managed to get the external screen working (only after GDM is started, i can see the workspace, nothing at boot time).Then I found out that the network would not start anymore, actually I could not even start yast or a su shell.After some investigation, I found that pure-ftp had changed the owner of all files in the / partition to ftp (and the group also to ftp)So, su has no access rights anymore to /etc/shadow, and thus cannot verify my root password anymore.Now i'm stuck. I can work as normal user on the old machine, but no network, the DVD wont write anymore and usb sticks don't open anymore.I cannot boot the system in single usermode, since then I have no screen.Has anybody here the brilliant idea I need to get the files out of this machine, without taking the disc out(would not know how to do that anyway).
