The value could then be periodicaly tested within a "cron" script. If screen saver was running then a "skill" could then be called to force a complete logout releasing the terminal for another student.

I know I can get the current console settings, but I'm looking for the native screen size of the display hardware, whether or not it conflicts with settings.
In fedora 14, the user order on GNOME login screen is completely different from that in fedora 13. Is there any way to order the users by date of creation ASC, not by name ASC?
Also, it is completely random. This time when I started my computer, my account was listed first. When I started this thread, it was listed last. What's happening?
I just moved from openSUSE 11.0 to 11.2.
While I like to new login screen (I was using a face based theme previously), I am stumped on how to control the order that the user names are presented.
As best I can tell, they are presented in the order who logs in most frequently. While that makes a certain amount of sense, I would like to be able to force the list to remain alphabetical.
Is there any way to control this, and if so, where?

Ok so I am a total newbie at Ubuntu Linux and I'm having problems I don't know how to solve.
1.) Up until yesterday this wasn't a problem, but after a power outage while I was connected I am now unable to connect to the internet anymore as it says "Networking is disabled", how do i enable the "networking"?
2.) Another problem I am having is that I am not able to dim the screen in order to save power among other uses, I've looked around but haven't been able to find a solution, I am running ubuntu on a Gateway M-Series Laptop.
3.) Finally, since installing linux I have been unable to listen to music or any other sounds through headphones or speakers, when i connect something into the audio output, the outer speakers do shut off but no sound is emitted through the speakers/headphones, and yes i have tried multiple ones to make sure it wasn't the headphones or speakers.
I thought it was just a normal stuck pixel the first day I saw it, but then I noticed if I move opera around the screen they stay with opera. It doesn't occur with any other programs, only opera. These pixels also show up when I take a screenshot. Is there a way to get rid of these pixels (or whatever they are)?

I have designed images to use as panel backgrounds but they tile so it's like one consistent thing as I don't know the dimensions for the length of panels, only the 24 pixel height. I've attached a couple so try them out, they're pretty cool.
I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my wife's old notebook, a Sony Vaio PCG-FX705, by wiping the HDD (i.e. no more Windows ). The problem is that there's some weird display error that reminds of a TFT with pixel errors, although that's no the cause. I got a screenshot of it here (made with a digicam), and here is a close-up of it.
One thing I've noticed is that this error starts at the mouse pointer's tip and goes right when the computer is booted. Also, when using Blank Screen as screensaver, the error disappears once the screen went blank until I press a key or move the mouse, at which point the error will re-appear at the mouse pointer's current location. The only way I found so far to temporarily fix this problem is to change display resolution. It doesn't matter which resolution I use, all that matters is that I change it.
This is the first time I have pixel errors when using my setup in linux, have resently installed the debian squeeze rlz, with rglrx drivers from the debian wiki how to.
Now I have pixelerrors in pictures and they are static for the pictures aka, the pixels are static in the picture even if I move a webpage for instance.
Any buggreport on this? Or how to fix it, its hard to make a screendump but I could take a picture of the screen with a cam if someone like to see it
In win7 or ubuntu there is no indications of this problem.
I am trying to stream from a webcam to mp4 file with avconv/ffmpeg with the GRBG pixel format. I can find a lot of ffmpeg commands and other stuff on google about a webcam stream to file with ffmpeg, but none of them use GRBG pixel format and are working for me ...
I have never tried something like this before
Output of v4l2-ctl --list-formats-ext:
Code: Select allioctl: VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT

How to get this working?

Did anyone else notice in the 10.04 RC that it is very difficult to expand a window from the left or right side? The threshold is one pixel long before the arrow disappears.

I've gotten the system to a working state, and things seem ok, aside from this:

I've got a few applications (Skype, etc, etc) that are now squished into a single pixel in the notification area. I can right click on it and get the context menus from them, but that isn't exactly the greatest solution.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to scroll text from a text file across a wx.panel. This is the code so far:
Code:
def scrolling(self, text, rate):
def scroll(): charList = []
dc = wx.ClientDC(self.panel_1)
open_text = open(text, "rb")
my_text = open_text.read()
charList.append(my_text) open_text.close()
x,y = self.panel_1.GetClientSizeTuple()
while 1: for z in charList: for r in range(2000):
dc.DrawText(z,x-r,0) time.sleep(rate) dc.Clear()
net3 = threading.Thread(target=scroll)
net3.setDaemon(1) net3.start()
It scrolls but I am guessing where the range is (2000). I need to be able to determine the total number of pixels that the text in the file is. Is there a python way to determine this?
I find that I prefer have both panels located at the screen top. That way I don't have to go to the bottom of the screen for one thing, then back to the top for another. I arranged the panel so the regular top one is on top,then the panel that contains the open applications is underneath.The problem is, when I reboot, the panels lose their order. First, the regular top panel initializes, then the bottom ones starts and pushes the first panel down, which becomes what you see in the picture: I would like to find a way to keep them in the opposite order of what you see in the picture, but every time I reboot they end up in that order.

I have been happily running Wheezy on the Chromebook Pixel with little or not issues. Recently I needed to re-install and decided to try Jessie. Again I was following the excellent instructions at [URL] .... except with the Jessie image.
However everytime I went to install it (after adding in the mem=4G line) it just rebooted and brought me back to the same install screen again. I just downloaded the Wheezy image again and it is installing now perfectly.

View 3 Replies View RelatedRecently, I loaded the new Ubuntu 10.10 - the Maverick Meerkat
Like many others, I'm sure, I run my mouse with the speed of light. So, I often zip my pointer up to the top right corner, hitting the virtual "wall" and landing on the very top right pixel, and click - expecting that the window will close. In the new 10.10, the top right pixel is not included in the mighty "X" button in any theme I have tried. So, now I have to exercise some precision and move a little down/left to click my close button. It is an annoyance that I'm simply not willing to accept any longer.
For the life of me, even though I am a 4-year Ubuntu user, I have never had much reason to play with the themes or make a change like this, and I can't seem to figure out how to fix it.
how to adjust the theme / border / title bar such that the close-window "X" includes the top right pixel?
I'm using a logitech quickcam pro 3000 on Ubuntu 10.04.
When I run a simple program with OpenCV to display the output from a camera I get the following output:
Code:
A window still opens with the output from the camera, but it seems very low quality and has far less pixels then it should. The camera built into my computer runs the same program with no problems.
My code for the program is simply:
Code:
One further note to make is that I still have the bad quality and low number of pixels with the logitech even when using webcam program. I can seem to find any drivers to update or anything though.
I'm making a game with the xlib library. What I want to do is to know if the character is standing on a trap or something else.
So far I've solved that using the coordinates but when I draw circles or stuff not shaped like a rectangle it gets to hard to make the game exact.
So what I'm asking for is if there is some kind of function in the xlib that tells you which color a pixel has. Because then it'd be much easier.
I've searched but I haven't been able to find anything good. I found XGetPixel() but that appears to work only with images, maybe I can make my window to be an "image"?

I have looked on the Internet after struggling to find how to know which /dev/video device is used.
