Slackware :: Achieve System-wide Proxy Settings

Jun 23, 2011

I want to set the HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY and http_proxy and FTP_PROXY environment variables "somewhere", so all programs that recognise these can find them. I need root to find them for slackpkg and sbopkg, I need users to find them for Dropbox, I need them for cronjobs and scripts and wget.So I want to set these environment variables up somewhere, preferably something in /etc and have them set and accessible for everyone and everything. I am not using KDE or XFCE or any desktop. I need a command line solution.

Where is the best place to put this? I see that some other distros have a /etc/environment and these variables go in there. In Slackware, should I add them as a new file in /etc/profile.d and have them added every time /etc/profile is accessed? Is there a Slackware approved method that I don't know about?

Fedora :: Where To Customized *desktop Files Go For System Wide Changes

Jul 4, 2011

making changes to *.desktop files in /usr/share/applications works for all users, but gets overwritten when those packages are updated. You lose all customizations. Placing the customized ones in~/.local/share/applications works, but you have to do that for all users (pain!). So, what folder do they go in for system wide changes, but safe from updates?

Ubuntu :: Running A Command System Wide To Fix RGBA?

Feb 22, 2010

I'm trying to run a command that will let me run some programs. If I run the command in a terminal, then I can launch the programs from it fine, but not from anywhere except that terminal. This is the command that makes things work:Code:export GTK_RGBA_APPS=allbut:exe:checkgmail:swiftfox:firefoxThis command disables RGBA for the programs listed, which seem to have problems with it. I hoped I could use this command to somehow apply it system wide permanently. I've tried adding it /etc/rc.local and rebooting, but it doesn't work.Is there a way of doing this? Or am I barking up the wrong tree entirely? Is there a better way to disable RGBA for certain programs?

Red Hat :: Setting System Wide Shell Variables In RHEL5?

May 10, 2010

I have an RHEL 5 server joined to a windows domain. However I wanted to add variable lines to be executed each time a user logs in. However I succeeded to put them in /etc/bashrc file and it worked like a charm.
But its annoying that everytime the user logs in to the shell remotely it displays the whole variables that were declared. Is there a way how to add them once and not to display the output each time the user logs in?

Slackware :: System Wide Application/filetype Defaults?

Sep 8, 2010

I have been searching around into /etc/xdg/ and ~/.config and also /skel/.config (for newly created users!) so I can ensure specific applications open filetypes by default.

I would prefer to be able to use a system wide configuration so that i may be able to run a script with each new slackware release that would change application/filetype defaults for all users including existing to our liking (unless they have already preset their own app/defaults in ~/.config).

Ubuntu :: Changing Monitor Refresh Rate System-wide?

Jan 31, 2011

On an older computer of mine using an older CRT monitor, Ubuntu defaults to a monitor refresh rate that causes the screen to constantly flicker and flash, making it nearly unusable. Changing the rate to either 75 Hz or 60 Hz fixes the issue, but changing it through the Monitor settings only affects my user account; part of the loading screen, and the login screen, will continue to flicker and flash. Is there a setting I can adjust somewhere that will set the refresh rate for the entire system, not just my user account?

Ubuntu Networking :: Firefox 5 And Ed2k System-wide Handling?

Jun 17, 2011

I'm trying to set up firefox system-wide to handle ed2k links properly, I'm following amule wiki howto at this page http://wiki.amule.org/index.php/Ed2k_links_handling but it seems a little outdated, I tried to create /usr/share/firefox/greprefs/all.js and /usr/local/share/firefox/greprefs/all.js but I got no results. I also tried to edit /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2.17/greprefs/all.js with no luck. So where should I put ed2k handling strings to apply them system-wide ?

Ubuntu :: Play An Audio File With A System-wide Keyboard Shortcut?

Aug 25, 2010

I do a bit of script writing, and part of this involves reading the text aloud and reacting to audio cues. What I'd love to do is set up a method of playing audio files at whim based on a general shortcut. So, say if I pressed <Super>C1, I could play ~/Music/cue1.mp3, <Super>C2 would be ~/Music/cue2.ogg etc.

Currently the closest I've got is using the terminal and a modified .bashrc to play via VLC's ncurses.

Code:
alias cue1="vlc -I ncurses ./Music/cue1.mp3"

Obviously this isn't very near to what I want. Entering a Keyboard Shortcut using the usual methods (xbindkeys, gconf-editor, the KeyShort Preferences GUI) to run

Code:
vlc -I ncurses ./Music/cue1.mp

doesn't play anything. Is it possible to launch these kinds of commands as shortcuts, or am I hoping for too much? My Google trawls have been pretty fruitless. I'm running Lucid, btw.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Setting Default Port For A Sink In Pulseaudio System-wide?

May 7, 2010

The default output audio port Ubuntu doesn't work on my system. It should be "Analog Mono Output/Amplifier", instead of "Analog Output/Amplifier". I can easily change that in sound preferences, just by choosing the right port in the "Output" tab, or by issuing the following command:

Code: pacmd 'set-sink-port' 'alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.5.analog-stereo analog-output-mono;output-amplifier-on' The problem is both solutions apply only to a single account, while I would like to change it system-wide, so it applies to all accounts on the system (there are more then 100 accounts - it's a set up for a school).I'm using Ubuntu 10.04.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Setting-up System As Remote Desktop To Feed House-wide Audio?

Apr 26, 2010

We're in the final process of building a home, and I had them setup a wiring box where all the coax and cat5 terminates into one closet, which will also house my server. Once we get moved in I'd also like to add speakers in each room to have house-wide music, and ideally I'd like the audio to also run into this box with the master input coming from the server as well.My thought was to setup the server with some basic desktop manager like Fluxbox and use that to drive audio throughout the house, whether it be Pandora, Sirius Radio, or whatever. Since the server will be headless I'll need it setup so we can remote into it from our laptops, but I wasn't sure if VNC or some other RDP variant would work. Ideally we'll need to access a unified desktop so traditional terminal services where each users gets their own desktop might not be ideal

OpenSUSE Install :: Saving System Settings (yast Settings)

Apr 1, 2011

Is there a way I can save system settings and have yast revert to a config file in case I ever need to reinstall the system again? I hate having to configure the firewall, runlevels, samba shares, samba workgroup, apparmor, and all the other junk after every install. It's not like I install often, but should suse 11.5 or 12 roll out, I'd like it to be a snappy upgrade.

Software :: Crontab Script Execution - Different Behavior User-cronfile <-> System-wide Cronfile

Feb 26, 2010

Script iptables_reset.sh

Code:

#!/bin/bash
IPTABLES="$(which iptables)"
$IPTABLES -P INPUT ACCEPT
$IPTABLES -P FORWARD ACCEPT

[code]....

This works if I edit the system-wide crontab in /etc/crontab like this:

Code:

0 12 * * * root /root/iptables/iptables_reset.sh

But it won't work, if i edit roots user-cronfile by using crontab(1):

Code:

crontab -l
# m h dom mon dow command
0 12 * * * /root/iptables/iptables_reset.sh

The log entry is the same for system-wide and user-cronfile:

Code:

/USR/SBIN/CRON[5135]: (root) CMD (/root/iptables/iptables_reset.sh)

I tried different things and found out,if i don't use the "$(which iptables)"substitution in the script, it also works with the user-cronfile.

Ubuntu :: Can't Access System Settings?

May 10, 2011

I cannot access it via the super-button search either... So I can't access compiz, or any other settings now. It was there a couple of days ago... What did I do? How can I get it back?
