Fedora :: Add Path In .bashrc By Commenting Out Old Path And Adding New One - Command Source ~/bashrc
Jun 14, 2011When 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.
General :: Slackware Won't Load ?
Feb 7, 2010Slackware 13 didn't install correctly, and I accidentally installed it on my main hard drive on my Toshiba laptop, now it has the MBR all jacked up. I can't boot from CD. If my external usb HD is formatted in a linux format, I have the possibility to boot from that device, but as soon as I load another linux distro, such as ubuntu or pardus, it won't load, and actually disappears from my boot menu. Slackware is dead it runs into a Kernel problem and locks up and then i'm forced to reboot.

Dec 14, 2010I played with awn for a few days on xfce. I came back to xfce4-panel. Now, every time I startx, I've got the error popup: Starting avant-window-navigator. Warning: Screen isn't composited. run compiz or another compositing manager.
I looked in the .xinitrc and can't seem to find any mention of awn or avant. How could I stop it from trying to load. I could tick "Don't show this message again", but it doesn't solve the problem. I could also uninstall awn, but I'd rather solve it properly.

General :: Slackware Automatic Boot And Load?
Jul 26, 2010I've installed Slackware 12.2 on a 12 year old desktop. It is the only OS on the machine. When I press the Power button it stops at Slackware's splash screen asking me to choose an OS, even tho' there is only one to choose from. I installed LILO to the MBR and that is also listed there as a possibility.
Is there a way to set Linux so it will simply load automatically?
Slackware :: [Bug] Qtconfig Does Not Load Config On Startup / What To Do?
Apr 17, 2011The program "qtconfig" does not load saved config on startup.
I just installed slackware-current from today's update (mirrored from ftp.slackware.com). The program "qtconfig" seems to have saved my changes to "~/.config/Trolltech.conf". However, after restarting qtconfig all options become the defaults.
I verified this in both the C locale and a UTF-8 locale.
Another computer of mine has a -current system from a few months ago and doesn't have this problem.
Slackware :: CPU Frequency Scaling Will Not Load At Boot
Nov 16, 2010I'm curious as to why some things are not happening at boot time (i end up having to manually load them).
In /etc/rc.d/rc.modules (near the bottom) i have set "CPUFREQ=on" and commented out any modules not specific to my hardware.
I have left this one uncommented:
Code:
And below the "### CPU frequency scaling policies:" i have;
Code:
uncommented. My scaling governor is set to:
Code:
Now whenever i reboot my machine `lsmod` is not showing any of either powernow-k8 or cpufreq* related modules.
I know i could use /etc/rc.d/rc.local with these:
Code:
But seems to defeat the purpose of rc.modules, any idea why they are not being loaded at boot... ?

Mar 12, 2010I swore I wouldn't do it again, but I did it anyway and installed 'current,' but I'm using Xfce not KDE. Everything was working very well, until I tried to print this morning. From Okular it would load the paper then stop and not print. From OpenOffice it would load and print, but the output was garbage.
Finally, I moved copies of what needed to be printed to the Xp partition, booted to Xp, and documents printed out just fine. As noted I'm running Slackware64 'current' with the latest versions of Cups and Hplip. The printer is a HP 940c. Hplip reports everything is fine, as does CUPS when running it in a browser (localhost:631).

Slackware :: When Load Gvim (through Vimperatorr Other Means) The Text Is Unreadable?
Feb 20, 2010I'm having a strange problem with gvim. I've installed Slackware on 4 computers now, and this latest one is the first I've seen this issue on. I use the command line for almost everything, and only use gvim in Firefox with Vimperator. So it isn't something I use all the time, but when I need it I really need it. Using textboxes (like, you know, on LQ) is starting to drive me up the wall Anyway, when I load gvim (through Vimperatorr other means) the text is unreadable. It does seem to become readable after it gets covered by another window, but as I type, the new text is unreadable again. Attached is a screenshot, of this post. And, actually, I'm seeing similar behaviour in Gimp.Attached is a second screenshot. The weird lines seem to appear and disappear when the mouse rolls over the area. I don't use very many GUI programs, just Firefox for the most part (which isn't displaying this behaviour). So, this could be a general X issue, or perhaps a WM issue.

Debian :: Bashrc Execution On Startup
Aug 11, 2015I'm not sure if this is a Debian-specific question or a KDE question.
FYI:
uname -a
Linux DESKTOP 3.16.0-4-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u3 (2015-08-04) i686 GNU/Linux
(Running KDE).
Question:
Upon logging in (typically, for the first time each day) I would like to see a console window/shell or a simple terminal-emulator/shell automatically open up.
The reason is: In order to get my .bashrc to execute I have to log-in, then bring up an xterm or some other terminal-emulator.
Background: My .bashrc has a once-per-day routine/section that will set up my desktop to look the way I want it on my initial log-in (primarily with my Java applications up/running and displayed and waiting for me).
Then, later on that day whenever I bring up new bash shells, my .bashrc is executed but that once-per-day routine/section is no longer executed.
Fedora :: .bash_profile Is Sourced Rather Than .bashrc?

Ubuntu :: Variables In .bashrc: How To Using Dir Path
Jun 20, 2011I have what I hope is a fairly simple question to answer. In my ~/.bashrc file I can create this alias:
Code:
alias uChmodDP='chmod -R $1 $2' #specify permissions. and the variables work fine. But I cannot seem to get any love from this alias:
Code:
alias umnt='umount /dev/$1' I realize the likely problem is the variable following hot on the heels of a specific directory, but is there anyway to specify a variable in an alias like this? For some reason I cannot umount usb pen drives by right clicking, and have to always resort to the terminal to do so, which for me is no real biggie, but if I could create this alias it would be an even better no biggie to umount using the terminal.
Actually, the inability to right click to umount usb devices seems to be a Thunar issue since I run xubuntu. Using Nautilus I am able to right click and eject/safely remove devices. Using Thunar however, right click unmount always pukes back an error that the device must have been mounted on the command line or some such BS. But like I said it is no real biggie to use terminal, but an alias would be even nicer. I prefer using Thunar and Xubu most of the time b/c my laptop is quite underpowered.
