Software :: Timed Startup - Program Or Any Script Write For Ubuntu?
Jul 5, 2011
I'm using a program called Auto Power on and Shut down on Windows. It let's me set times for the computer to shutdown, power on, hibernate, sleep, and etc. Is there any program or any script you can write for Ubuntu that lets you do this? I need something like: Tell computer to turn off at 10am. *run programs* Tell computer to (does Linux have hibernate?) something that isn't shutdown but looks like it's shutdown at 5pm. I use hibernate in Windows.

I have connected my TV (and my regular screen) to my Ubuntu 9.10. I use TwinView, and that works just fine. I have also installed Moovida (I love that program). And I would like my PC to open Moovida on startup, but I need it to be on the TV screen.
I would like to know whether there is a way of running a console program at startup. That means even before user login. My guess was that it would have to be run like a service but this idea comes from my ... windows" experience.
Will a program (created using Real Studio) that's placed in the startup queue run? I tried just this, and while there was no error at startup it appears the program had no effect. It is a shell execution to set my screen-blanking time. The program does work once I am up and running though. I am using Linux Mint 8 on a T30 Thinkpad.

on every start up, I get a frame which can not be closed because I don't know to which program it belongs to. ince I am not that familiar with running programs and their respective tasks on system monitor, I can't figure out which one to close. By the way the second one showed up around the time I was taking the screen shot and I don't remember what it was about. Here is a screen shot and list of running tasks:
How can I prevent a program loading on startup? The program does not appear in Preferences / Startup Applications. I want to avoid having to sudo kill all programname every-time I login.

My Operating System:
- Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala (only using Gnome)
Programs at StartUp:

I want to learn some details about linux booting, so I begin writing a small boot program myself. Yesterday, I was writing a small boot program and planned to use it boot a Bochs virtual machine. The boot program is written in assembly language and compiled with nasm.I use bxiamge.exe in Bochs and create an floppy image called boot.img and configure the Bochs virtual host to boot from this floppy image. My question is how to write the compiled boot.bin program into the floppy image(boot.img)?
I am using Ubuntu 9.04 linux 2.6.28-11-generic. When I write a program that gives the "Segmentation fault" error, or when I send this signal (SIGSEGV) to a program, the "Segmentation fault" is shown and no core dumped. When I look for "core" file in the current directory, I can't find it, too.

write a C program to detect whether the Ethernet cable is plugged or unplugged. I found out by using a command "nm-tool" in Linux terminal will show me whether a Ethernet cable is plugged or not. If Ethernet cable is plugged, in the device part of eth0, the Hardware Link of Wired Settings will indicate a "yes" and "no" if no Ethernet cable. Hence, in my previous code, I use one function called popen to read the state as shown below:
PHP Code:
[code]....
However, now my project wish to not use the NetworkManager (where the "nm-tool" command comes from). And this gives me trouble to detect the Ethernet cable. So is there any other method for me to detect the Ethernet cable in C programming?
