General :: Use Different Profiles For Different Console Environment?
Jul 9, 2011
Can I use two or more different profiles used in my console as the same time? Since, I always ssh to the other machines ,e.g. servers. in my console. Somehow, I always mix it up with my current PC.
I want to use 2 different profiles for different environments. Say, in server console, I use red background color. in my pc console, I use green background color such that i can easily distinguish out.or can i set the background color in .bashrc?

Kernel 2.6.21.5, slackware 12.0
Xfce 4.4.1
when I open a graphical terminal in the GUI, I appear as being the same user who ran X in order to enter the GUI, say user_foo, as said by whoami. But a program I usually use in a text console as user_foo, gets Command not found here. Furthermore, the name of the dir I am in does not appear in the prompt, whereas it does when in the text console.
I guess this has something to do with enheriting the environment, but don't know wht to do for this to happen. How do I open this GUI terminal? I do so by choosing among one of several ones in the DE main menu. When I click the menu entry, the terminal doesn't ask for a password.

My Ubuntu laptop gets docked into a few different locations per day with different hardware and use cases. I'd like to automate the preference settings for each of these locations:
Work computer, dual head 1280x1024
External USB audio and bluetooth audio
Home computer, dual head 1280x1024, 1080p
External USB audio
Basically, when I dock the box in either (1) or (2), I want to automagically get the right xrandr settings for the different screen geometries and the right audio routing.
What scripts, etc. are responsible for the inscrutable default behavior?
Are there packages for customizing this?
If I wanted to roll my own, what is the right library to use to catch the hotplug events?

Everything works fine in doing this, however every time a user logs into the Windows Citrix Session the roaming profile created on the linux samba share creates their Windows Profile with a 755 perms. I understand that the default umask is (globally on my RHEL host is 022 ??) but in my smb.conf file the definition that is defined for the directory is set to a create mask of 0700. What is going on?

I would like to backup my wicd profiles. I thought it would be sufficent to copy /opt/wicd/data and /opt/wicd/encryption - however, those path do not exist in lenny (which I am running). So which path / folders / files do I need to backup in order to back up the wicd profiles and configuration?

Is there a way to set up profiles for X terminal emulator such as one can do with konsole? and if so, can they be configured to launch at xfce startup?
Example
Tab called "mutt".
When tab is opened, mutt is started.
Tab starts when xfce starts terminal emulator.
FYI:
1)Using slack 13.0
2)Comfortable with command line, vim and command line tools.
3)Python programmer (and some shell)

I would like to set up the shell env that i get after SSH to a remote host.
I am using a color screen in my terminal, having cusomtized LS_COLORS environment variable. Problem is, every time i log in to a remote host using SSH, i have to manually export LS_COLORS. You can say put that in ever .bashrc file in every host, but that is not very helpful because the remote host are lab servers that keep getting new OS very often(testing stuff), and the team and I usually log in there with root user.
Is there a way to do that?

I heard Enlightenment is one of the best looking desktop envioronments.
And KDE can be very amazing if you install a rendering engine on it.

Firefox 4 Beta RPMs are available at [URL]. The RPMs do not upgrade or modify the existing Firefox installation and instead create a new profile to coexist with the stable releases.

Using 11.4 with KDE 4.6.In trying to diagnose a problem with my wifi AP, which keeps on disconnecting and reconnecting, I have changed from using NetworkManager to ifup and back a couple of times. (To no effect as far as diagnosis is concerned.)
When I last tried to use NetworkManager, having deleted the ifup configuration, my system behaved as though the NetworkManager profile still existed even though it had been deleted.
My AP has SSID set, say as "Actual_SSID."To create the new connection using NetworkManager (all old connections having been deleted)I scanned for available APs and selected "Actual_SSID." However by the time I had completed creating this connection it appeared in NetworkManager as "Actual_SSID(2)" as if the previous connection profile still existed.

I am running Ubuntu 10.10 as two options
1) VMWare under Linux (using Physical Driver)
2) Dual Boot with Windows
Now, the idea is great, access my Linux from Windows, and use Unity.Then, I can run Konsole like if it would be a Windows app, pretty sweet I also want to run Ubuntu 10.10 as a stand-alone distro, without the need of VMWare (since it's installed in a Physical Drive)The problem is the Xorg.conf driver I want to create two "profiles" in Grub 2, so I can have 2 different versions of Ubuntu
1) will use the VMWARE driver in Xorg
2) will use the Nvidia driver in Xorg
By doing that, I'll be able to use Compiz with nice Nvidia effects whenever I want (play games, use Compiz Cube, etc, etc) I will also be able to use Ubuntu 10.10 from within Windows and use the power of Unity to run Ubuntu apps within Windows

Can't seem to update without the Profiles wizard crashing.Will try again later this week to update the packages.I want to package most of the svn as I can.I would update the packages as much as I have time for. This wouldn't be for creating a distro from as it would have bugs.Also I'll be moving in a few months so there will be a month or more without updates.

I've got a hybrid network of Windoz and Mac clients that I want to auth to a CentOS Samba server (currently running a tdbsam backend but will eventually be migrated to an OpenLDAP backend)...what is the best solution for "sync'ing" the Mac clients (mostly laptops) to the server, all the solutions that I've seen suggest that I should simply map the users home drive to the PDC but that doesn't mac much since to me seeing as they need to access their computers data while they're off site...is there a way to "sync" user profiles in Linux>?

I am running Ubuntu 10.4 on a 32-bit machine, and I find that my gnome-terminal profile settings are not being saved across a restart. However, I can make the profiles save if I run gnome-terminal under root access. This makes me suspect that I have a permissions problem, but I am set up to run as Administrator, and I am the only user, so I am baffled why this isn't working. It certainly did work in version 9.10 on the same box.
This is getting irritating, since I have a method of setting up a development web server/debugger environment which requires 3 different tabs with associated profiles to make each a distinct set of colors and behavior.

getting profiles to work with the newer seamonkey? I found that after the initial upgrade from 1.1.18 to 2.0.0 user profiles weren't migrated/imported, so I backed the upgrade out.
Now with 2.0.3 and a bunch of new vulnerabilities I re-installed and still can't get a profile migration.. I resorted to giving up on the idea all together, but even when I erased ~/.mozilla I still can't get any profiles to work with 2.0.x at all.
Any attempt to start up a second instance with a new profile (-P) brings up the same profile already in use in the first instance, and switching profiles via "profile manager" from a running seamonkey will close the previously open profile to open the next one ....

I am working for a web hosting company. We work in red hat linux environment and the employees at present are having their data stored in individual systems. We wish to have a centralized environment, so that users can log in to a server with their user names irrespective of the systems they will set. Also, this could facilitate easy backup. we have about 70 systems, 90% linux machines. The number will grow in future. I am good in NIS, but not at all with LDAP. Is it okay if I suggest NIS?
