Software :: Multiple Sessions With Different Resolutions

May 9, 2011

I just bought a tablet, I would like to VNC to my machine with a lower screen resolution to match my tablet. Right now I use x11vnc on Ubuntu 10.10, and I was thinking to start another session using "startx" but I see there are parameters for display depth but not resolution.

General :: Windows - Resize An Image To Multiple Resolutions Simultaneously?

Aug 22, 2011

I am looking for software (Windows or Linux) that can do the following: Resize one image to several provided sizes. Detects the type of the pic­ture (wide, nor­mal) and does the resize based on that. What I mean by that is that it should not break the image by shrinking it more in one direction then in the other so it looks weird. The purpose of this is my Blog. If I want to give my readers a wallpaper, I want to give them several options for the sizes so they can have it in their own preferred screen resolution. The image must however keep its original aspect ratio.

Debian :: Multiple Sessions With X Window

Jan 18, 2011

I have two Debian boxes, A and B. I would like that a window (for example vlc, or whatever) displays on both A and B. The process (i.e., the X11 client) runs on A. If I interact with the window from box A, it should affect the window on box B. And, if I interact with the window from box B, it should affect the window on box A.

Ubuntu :: Will It Be Possible To Maintain Multiple Sessions

Oct 4, 2010

Will it be possible to maintain multiple sessions from Ubuntu?Actually we are working on one open source application and we have setup this application on one of our Ubuntu machine and this would act as a server for other developer's windows machine. Is any utility available(preferable open source) using which we will be able to access the Ubuntu server from all 4-5 developer's Windows machines?

Our requirement will be to access the whole system including console and GUI (same like remotely access) by using different sessions so that all 4-5 developers can start work together on the same Ubuntu machine.

Debian Multimedia :: Using Startx For Multiple X Sessions

Sep 20, 2015

I have been able to log into a tty[1-6] as root or my user, and then startx -- :1, while logged in as myuser and running X on tty7, , but this somehow skips my default desktop manager (GDM3) and boot straight into LXDE (with no menus!). In /etc/X11/default-diplay-manager I have: /usr/sbin/gdm3 ? How do I get startx -- :1 to start a desktop manager?

Related 2nd question: When I did the above startx -- :1, it would start the X session in the same tty (e.g. tty2) where I was logged in when running the startx command. It used to be (in older Linux versions) that startx -- :1 would start an X session on tty8 (and the default would be :0 on tty7). Is this the (new) way things are supposed to work?

Debian :: Iceweasel - Secure Sessions On Multiple Profiles

May 18, 2010

I'm having problems establishing secure sessions with my bank's online banking service provider. I've already contacted their local tech and together we were unable to solve the problem. I've tried deleting my cookies, session store, cache, and none of it worked. He's currently forwarding our conversation to the service provider's tech support line, but who knows what will come of it. Or even if they will offer support for an iceweasel user. I'm using Iceweasel 3.6.4~build2-1 out of the experimental repo.

I'm able to login successfully to online banking site to view my list of accounts, however if I try going any further than that, I'm redirected to an error message page that tells me a security error has occurred - the online session has expired. I get this on browser profiles 1, 2, and 3, however I do not get the error message on profile '0' (default) or on newly created profiles. And as mentioned earlier, I've tried deleting all persistent data (cookies, session, cache) on a non-working profile and the problem still exists. Let me know if I can provide any more information.

Debian Multimedia :: Gdm3 / Gnome And Multiple X Sessions

Sep 11, 2015

Running Jessie (with a low-pinned Debian-based repositories added to my sources.list (e.g. Kali, kxstudio) for those packages not currently available on Debian (like the Kali menu of security tools). Running on a HP 15-r189nd (Energy Star) laptop.

First question: How do I get GDM3 to add root as an option during login? I can type the root user name in. I don't need it to show the root user in the user list (would actually prefer to need to type it in), but I do want to be able to start an X session as root, since some of the Kali tools (e.g. nmap) needs root to function fully. If I type in root and try to start, it just takes me back to the GDM3 login.

Second question: When I want to select my Desktop Enviroment/Window Manager in GDM3, the list appears below the little gear so I can only see half of the list (xfce not visible to select). How do I change the GDM3 appearance/settings that will change the position of the DE list?

Third question: How do I get multiple X sessions running simultaneously? What I have been able to do, while logged in as myuser and running X on tty7, is to log into a tty[1-6] as root, and then startx -- :1, but this somehow skips my default desktop manager (GDM3) and boot straight into LXDE (with no menus!). In /etc/X11/default-diplay-manager I have: /usr/sbin/gdm3 ? How do I get startx -- :1 to start a desktop manager?

Fourth question: When I did the above startx -- :1 as root, it would start the X session in the same tty (e.g. tty2) where I was logged in as root running the startx command. It used to be (in older Linux versions) that startx -- :1 would start an X session on tty8 (and the default would be :0 on tty7). Is this the (new) way things are supposed to work? Or is there something wrong with my setup?

Question 5: Once I have started an LXDE session as root, how do I get it to show the full application menu that my regular user can see? Can I just copy the config files over? Which ones? Or is there a better way?

Question 6: Gnome used to start fine. Then I ran Gnome on Wayland once, and now regular Gnome (on X?) no longer runs, but give me a "Oops! Something went wrong" error and Alt-F4 just takes me back to GDM3. Classic Gnome and Gnome on Wayland still runs OK. Should I log a bug report?

Ubuntu :: Multiple X Sessions - Auto Login 2 Different Users

Oct 11, 2010

I have a small problem regarding multiple X sessions. I want 2 X sessions started automatically on boot with 2 different users auto logged in and 2 different sessions running.

On first X session I would like to have gnome running with user1
On second X session I would like to have xbmc running with user2
So far my computer logs user1 in to a gnome session via gdm on boot. But then I have to launch a tty, log in as user2 and then start xbmc in a new X session.

How to make it work? I would also love to have the second X session active after boot. I am running Ubuntu 10.04.

Server :: Automating Multiple Minicom Sessions Simultaneously

Oct 5, 2010

Here's the setup: One x86 server (Red Hat 4) with two serial connections to an embedded linux device. One serial connection is to a power control so the device can the restarted, and the other is used for a console to this device. Both serial connections use minicom. People on my team VNC to the x86 server, where they find the two minicom sessions waiting for them as they are left open. I would like to automate connecting to the server and communicating over the serial lines.

Supposing I use ssh to the x86 server, could minicom be used over the serial lines without terminating the minicom processes seen through VNC? If not, is there a way to re-open those windows from within the ssh session, so a user who VNCs to the server won't have to reopen them? Could a single ssh connection control two minicom terminals simultaneously, or would there need to be two ssh connections? It is assumed a user and the automated process will *not* try to access the device at the same time; the automation would trigger during off hours.

Software :: Multiple Concurrent Remote Desktop Sessions?

I currently have a RHEL 5.4 software development server. A lot of my developers are using windows desktops and they need to run interactive sessions on the server. I need to support between 4-6 concurrent users on the server. I tried doing this with VNC but I was never able to set that up for more than one user at a time.

General :: Launch Multiple Screen Sessions From A Single Bash Script?

Jul 11, 2011

I've written a script (that doesn't work) that looks something like this:

#!/bin/sh
screen -dmS "somename" somecommand
for i in {0..5}; do
screen -dmS "name$i" anothercommand $i
done

For some reason, if I copy and paste this into a terminal, it creates 7 detached screen sessions as I expect. If I run it from within a script, however, I get only the first session, "somename," when I run screen -ls.

Edit: If the same can be accomplished another way (e.g. with multiple screen windows instead of sessions), I would be open those solutions as well.

Ubuntu :: Set Different Resolutions On Each Screen?

Jul 26, 2010

I use a 17" laptop with a 22" secondary monitor running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. The res on the laptop screen is 1440x900 (16:10) and the secondary monitor mirrors this. Problem is that because the secondary monitor aspect ratio the display is somewhat distorted. It's not so bad that it is unreadable but I work in IT so I am at my computer for around 8hours a day so it wear thin after a while.

Is there a way for me to set different resolutions on each screen? The laptop have an ATI Radeon Graphics card and cannot change the Resolution above 1440x900 even within ATI Catlyst control center.

Fedora :: Cannot Add Screen Resolutions (16:9 Ratio)

Apr 29, 2011

I'm fairly new to Fedora. I am using F14, on a brand new laptop. The LCD screen needs to be matched with a 16:9 ratio, or it stretches everything out. Unfortunately F14 only comes offering three options... none of which are 16:9. Is there an easy way for me to add a 16:9 ratio to my display settings? Does it matter that I am running in low graphics mode?..... it's the only way the liveCd would install.

1. Download packages http://ajoliveira.com/ajoliveira/gen...it_9.10.tar.gz and http://ajoliveira.com/ajoliveira/gen...rg.conf.tar.gz.

One of these contains the driver files and the other a xorg.conf file.

2. Extract the 2 archives by double-clicking on them.

3. Copy the xorg.conf file to the /etc/X11 directory code...

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Two Monitors With Different Resolutions?

Apr 12, 2010

I am running Ubuntu 9.10 on an HP laptop with an Intel 82852/82855 GM/GMC Graphics controller. I have a 2nd monitor attached to the VGA port (HP f1703). The problem is that the two screens have different resolutions. the laptop is 1280 x 768 and the other monitor is 1280 x 1024. The xorg.conf file that was created with Xorg -config set both monitors up with 1280 x 1024 resolution so my screen on the laptop looks all "squashed". I have tried to reconfigure it using the Display Preferences dialog but after i re-boot, both screens are unviewable and I have to restore my previous xorg.conf file. I went through the HOWTO: Jaunty Intel Graphics Performance Guide procedure to setup a "safe" configuration but didn't work and I had to restore my "good' xorg.conf file. What do I need to do to setup my two screens with the correct resolutions: 1280 x 768 and 1280 x 1024?

Here is the video portion from my "good" xorg.conf file
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "Monitor Model"
EndSection

Ubuntu :: Blurry Graphics On Low Resolutions?

Nov 1, 2010

I have recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my computer. The default display driver supplied with it only allowed the screen's default resolution (1280x1024), so I downloaded and installed nVidia's latest driver (260). When I change the resolution to anything lower than the default, the graphics (and most notably letters) everywhere appear slightly blurry, becoming more and more blurry as I lower the resolution. The blur is not terrible, I can still use it but it becomes annoying to watch after a while. I am using a GT240 graphics card, and this problem does not exist on Windows using the same resolution and same driver version.

Is there a formula to calculate the unknown value for the heightxwidth if one value is supplied? For example, if I want my video to be 480xWidth, what value should Width be to get proper aspect.

Slackware :: Dealing With Two Monitors With Different Resolutions?

Jul 2, 2011

My notebook's LCD runs at 1920x1080 while my external LCD runs at 1920x1200. For the most part I use the external LCD, but there are times when I need to disconnect and use just the notebook's LCD. Because of the different resolutions I need to exit my X session and go back in otherwise the higher resolution of the external LCD gets cut off when I switch to the notebook's LCD. Other than forcing a non-native 1920x1080 on the external LCD, is there any other way to get both screens to show the full desktop without having to restart X? The GPU I have is an nVidia with the nVidia drivers.
