The following line is in the /etc/bashrc file. I was trying to decipher it but no google results explain it in detail.PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne 33]0;${USER}${HOSTNAME%%.*}:${PWD/#$HOME/~}07"'I understand that 33 is the ASCII character for ESC but not sure what ]0 does or anything after the HOSTNAME variable.
View 1 RepliesWhen I add some path in .bashrc by commenting out old path and adding new one like this:
#EXPORT HOME_PLAY=/home/gem/old_play
EXPORT HOME_PLAY=/home/gem/play
EXPORT PATH=$PATH:HOME_PLAY
After saving above changes, I enter the command: source ~/.bashrc Now if I do echo $PATH, the path shows both the old PLAY_HOME and new PLAY_HOME. This is really bad and messes up a lot of things in my project. This problem only goes away if I logout or reboot, a rather very long process. What is happening is that the old path is added to new path element and the old path includes the old path element you want to remove.
Start xpdf or gv. Click an xterm to be active and slide it over xpdf/gv. Vertical lines from xpdf/gv under the xterm stick to the xterm window above and make it unreadable.
The problem does NOT show with KDE default settings with display effects on but does show in fvwm, xfce etc, and in KDE without effects.
On a system with a Sandy Bridge integrated graphics (i5-2400) the problem went away by downgrading to xf86-video-intel-2.13.0. But it was not enough for another system with 945G which needed downgrading to xf86-video-intel-2.12.0.

I've set up an alias in .bashrc (let's call it alias1), and am trying to set up a sudo NOPASSWD rule for that particular command. So far, I've attempted:
user ALL = NOPASSWD: alias1
user ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: alias1
But keep getting told I have a syntax error - presumably this is because visudo doesn't recognise alias1? I've already checked that alias1 works correctly, so I assume I'm just referring to it incorrectly.
recently I did some changes to my bashrc file the changes are as follows

Does Fedora has restrictions on shell scripting? I haven't touch bash in seven years, so if things have change on it I'm behind on it, and sorry for my ignorance.
I have a normal computer installed (F14, 32 bits) with a sound card correctly installed. In a normal configuration into runlevel 5, I can play sound and the sound card is visible from the gnome-volume-control window.
I should modify the computer running a naked X server (without window manager and other stuff) and two applications (an xterm and a special application managing sounds). The last application is a text based application and could run on a text console. I have the X server running because I display picture sent from another computer. Currently the computer boots on runlevel 3 and logs in automatically. If I start manually my special application, it runs fine. I create a .xinitrc script with the xterm command and I change the .bashrc calling xinit. Each application runs well independently. My problem is when I try running my special sound application from the xterm window. I have no sound. If a run the gnome-volume-control command, the program shows that no sound card is available.
I suppose the X server removes the original sound configuration of the text mode during its initialization and could not initialize correctly after that the sound card.
how it is possible to initialize the sound card manually into the X server? Do I need running some gnome command before I can call my application?

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe usual operations in starting the xterm app don't seem to apply in Fedora 12. I usually prefer to put my own title and other attributes when starting an xterm. But the operation: xterm -T 'Some Title' does not do anything. Instead, the current directory is always displayed in the title bar of the window (on kde). Where is the resource file to disable this default behavior?

Our Fedora 15 linux box have the following requirements:
1. Runlevel 3
1. Autologin as root for convenience
2. Run Xorg
3. Run xterm on display :0.0
4. Lauch our program on display :0.0
So we simply put step 2 ~ step 4 in the .bash_profile of root user:
# .bash_profile
if [ -f "/.bahsrc ]; then
.~/.bashrc
fi
export DISPLAY=:0.0
Xorg &
sleep 3 # for some reason, we need this three seconds to make sure that xterm start up successfully
xterm &
The problem is, if I issue "kill xterm", it flashes out some messages disappearing so quick that I can't even read, and then leave me with a black screen with a cross cursor at the center. The system seems to be crashed, even the numlock doesn't work. Since we execute xterm & during logging in, now I can crash my system simply by pressing ctrl + C ! That's disaster!
I am quite new to Linux and fedora. I am trying to run some molecular simulation software whose shell scripts create X windows with the xterm command. How do I get xterm on Fedora 14?

I'm running Ubuntu Server 11.04 with OpenSSH, trying to create an ssh tunnel (for web traffic) to it from my (also Ubuntu) laptop. This is the command I'm using to create the tunnel:
Code: ssh -ND localhost:8080 george@192.168.1.20 I had it all working on a virtual machine.. which was deleted What settings/lines do I need to change/add from the default OpenSSH config files to get tunnelling to work? I've Googled and AllowTcpForwarding is set to yes, as is X11Forwarding.. but it still doesn't work. Chrome can connect to the server, but says the connection was closed before any data was sent.
I am running a server with a GRSecurity patched Kernel 2.6.32.36. I've tried to optimize the kernel as much as I can and know it (removing options, not needed drivers and so on) and compiled the modules into the kernel (no loadable modules anymore). I've started with Slackware 13.0 and the default config for 2.6.29.6-huge. Still I am not sure what to remove/optimize further now.
My question: Is there a way to boot with a kernel with loadable modules, check which modules are really needed for this hardware, (do something like lsmod) and save the running configuration modules for a next kernel compile to be the default .config instead of writing them down by hand and search for the appropriate names in .config or during menuconfig? (Note: zcat /proc/config.gz > .config is NOT the way I want, as it gives me just the current kernel config)
I have a problem that I'm not sure how best to debug. About every other time when I boot my system, I get a condition where listing the files in /root locks up that xterm session.This can be cleared by opening another xterm window and killing the listing command. This happens on "ls -a", "find", "tar" and I think "stat" also. The locked up xterm echo's chararcters but does not respond to any control sequences. This is new with FC11.This has only been seen to happen for root. And once a system is booted with this problem it seems to persist until you get it booted without the problem.
