View 3 RepliesI like the features of Terminator very much. It save my time. But on 2.6.31-gentoo-r10, I got a little problem: after typing 'exit', the system echo 'exit' and hang at with a mouse cursor (can't type anything):
Code:
quanta@dhcppc6 ~ $ exit
exit

I did a search. But I'm not sure about the latest status - posts reporting a problem are pretty old.So, is there a problem with gnome-terminal --geometry?For instance
Code:
gnome-terminal --geometry=100x50
works fine.

I'm currently building a ubuntu distro and would like to run a script on GNOME startup. I've read about doing it through the session manager but I have to do it through chroot so I'll need to set it up as a terminal command. Is there a way to add an item to the Session Manager from terminal or, even better, a directory where I can put the script so it will run on start?

None of my efforts have caused the cursor to be visible. Any ideas?

I'm trying (well aiming) to customize my desktop so that on login Terminator is on workspace 3 (split 3 ways and running lynx, irssi and top. I'm using gdevilspie to configure it but I understand and can use the normal config files. When I use gdevilspie to make a terminal background it works but when i try to do stuff with terminator it doesn't.
Here's my terminator config so far:
Code:
( if
( begin
( is ( window_class ) "terminator" )
)
( begin
( undecorate )
( spawn_sync "top" )
( set_workspace 3 )
( maximize_horizontally )
( center )
( below )
( set_viewport 3 )
( println "match" )
) )
Once I do get devilspie sorted I also want to make Terminator automatically split and run the correct commands.
I need to read a binary file using my C++ application. That binary file may contain arbitary characters and it also contains 0 at some places. I need to read the file without considering null terminating character. (i.e. considering 0 as a normal byte and not as the end of the string)Can some one suggest me a method to read the buffer while ignoring the null terminated character.

Now, I'm not sure what's the next thing I supposed to do. I tried to copy this file as /usr/lib/libagg.so and the run ldconfig, but I get sudo ldconfig ldconfig: /usr/lib/libagg.so.2.5 is not an ELF file - it has the wrong magic bytes at the start.I also tried the same thing in /usr/lib64/libagg.so, with the same result.I'm not sure if this is what I'm supposed to do,
View 3 Replies View RelatedI had run out of space on a 30GB raid1 partition so I rebuilt it as I had three 30GB partitions on a pair of 120GB drives. I stopped the array and used gparted to create a single 120GB partition on one of the disks. I then copied the data from all three partitions on the other drive onto this newly cleared space, before zapping that too. So I now had two drives with identical single partitions, one of which had all my data and lots of space. I used mdadm to create a new array from the two disks, which looked good. It immediately started to resync the data onto the second drive. However, when I tried to mount the new array this is what I get:
Code:
bob@zaphod:~$ sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/md0 /media/raid/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md0,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[code]....
I can mount the drives independently and GOOD NEWS the data is there! However, how can I get round this problem and mount the raid array.

Is anyone having problems with the "Web Slice" plasmoid desktop widget? I'm trying to get it to display my download usage, by showing my ISPs webpage [URL] (no login reqd) I can get it to pull-in a URL, and specify a div label, altho while I'm configuring it the zoom is a bit random, but it kinda works. Main problem is with grabbing a specific section via pixel geometry: x,y,width,height whatever I enter for x,y just isn't doing anything, in fact the geometry settings don't seem to be having any affect that I can see.

I did some Googling and found this is either not a supported feature or it depends on the application if they want to support it or not.
I'm trying to make my default terminal start in the center of the screen.
I found that you can add the command line parameter
Code:
For example and it should open at a 70x20 size in the 20+30 position. I added that to my panel launcher's command and ended up with

However the terminal isn't opening at all.
After further reading, I discovered the default launchers use your preferred applications so I just used replaced the launch command with the following and it worked perfectly:

I want to disable the graphical desktop automatically starting up at boot. I want it to boot only to terminal. I don't want to remove it completely and still want to be able to start it up with for example "startx" if I need it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAfter an error occurred i can log in using the recovery console and startx manually.
If i understood correctly recovery mode uses /etc/rcS.d which starts the computer with minimal services and the normal startup is /etc/rc2.d. What can rc3, rc4 and rc5 be used for? Can anyone run different desktops (gnome, xfce, etc) using these runlevels (i am considering that the base system install is the same for all desktops)? Where i can find information about the services that are listed in the rc folders, since some (hibernate, bluetooth, apache2) are not useful to me at the moment.
I am also interested to find out what makes the computer start at it's default runlevel. Is there a way to start rc2 (or rc3, etc) from the recovery mode? When i used to start my computer, it would load into grub, and then it used to get me to the login screen. This is something i would like to avoid (the login screen), and start at the command prompt. My startups are minimal since the computer is always on. I was thinking of 'copying' rcS into rc2 for a normal console start and then start rc3 or rc4 or rc5 to load a desktop.
I am using Squeeze, Gnome, default installation.
I'm trying to execute a custom setxkbmap command upon startup so that I have the correcty layout when logging in.
