Software :: Create A Qt Application / Shell Script That Simply Updates Facebook Status?
Jun 2, 2010
I WANT TO CREATE A Qt application / shell script, that simply updates my facebook status.perhaps this would be poosible but i don't know how to implelment this actually.
i am running into few problems with the script here. I have an FTP server, all configured, and i need to have a script that will create a folder with current dated within a tree as soon as particular user logs in. I was wondering if that is possible with proftpd. if not, can someone suggest how to create a script that will simply create a DIR with date and autorun itself every 24 hours? i am running Debian/Proftpd with Mysql authorization.
I just recently started using Empathy, and so far, it's great with one problem.As long as Empathy is online, my Facebook status (as others see it) is "available", regardless of how I have my status in Empathy. Kind of puts a damper on things when people think I'm being rude and ignoring them. Have others experienced this issue? Is this a user error, or something that needs to be fixed upstream?
I am trying to create a shell script similar to ls, but which only lists directories. I have the first half working (no argument version), but trying to make it accept an argument, I am failing. My logic is sound I think, but I'm missing something on the syntax.
Code: if [ $# -eq 0 ] ; then d=`pwd` for i in * ; do if test -d $d/$i ; then echo "$i:" code....
I already checked the preferences of UM but the filtering is somewhat awkward -- i.e. you have choice to EITHER install silently security updates OR be notified about all updates. One does not exclude the other, but for UM apparently it does.
But I have similar yet different need -- be notified about ONLY security updates (so when I click to show the updates, I will see only them). The rest of the updates should be ignored -- unless the update is required by the other, security update package.
I want small facebook tab like widget on my desktop.It is available in kubuntu.Is there any way to create it??I should be able to view updates,update my status etc
I ran update through the terminal and rebooted i get this error message on start up and again after I log in Please Help!! I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 using unity 2d and the latest version of Gnome 2 on a Dell Inspiron 5150 laptop There is a problem with the configuration server. (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 32512)
I'm using Squeeze, and haven't seen an update in the Debian repo for some time. Seeing as it's due for release soon (September), can we expect some updates in the near future? I had been using Gnome Shell in Ubuntu with much success, including compiling my own. These days, I cannot afford the bandwidth, and have encountered an unknown problem [URL] under Debian Squeeze. Currently, I'm experiencing a very annoying flickering issue using the repo version which I know does not exist anymore in the current gnome development. To have at least one update now before the release date would be nice to see.
Just as the topic.How to install the extension alternative-status-menu?I would like the option "Power off " always have a visible, without the need to hold down the key "Alt".
I have searched the net but can't seem to find answer for this issue. I am using Opensuse 11.4 with KDE Version 4.7.1 and kernel 2.6.37.6-0.7-desktop on an Acer TravelMate 4200.I updated my system yesterday and since that update the default Application Launcher for KDE is not working, when you click on the launch icon you get the "Kickoff Application launcher" balloon dialog but nothing else happens. A sort of a work around for this issue is that I have found when the application launcher is switched to Classic Menu Style then the classic menu works without any problems. I would however like to use the default launcher and not the classic one as it has so much more functionality and is easier to use and navigate
I'm looking to put together a script, called by a cron job on a daily (or weekly) basis, to automatically have apt-get pull down and install all updates, followed by a re-boot.
I am looking for a method to run a shell script or open an application through the web browser.For example, open OpenOffice from the browser (without going through the menus).Is it possible?My ultimate goal to pass an argument through the browser to a script. I know it is pretty far fetched for my very limited abilities but I wanna try. For example I want to pass an URL or a text string from the browser to a shell script
When I try to launch application which runs in another window (not inside shell), it always fails with this kind of message: (example from gnome-terminal)
Code:
** (gnome-terminal:2477): WARNING **: Failed to connect to the session manager: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported Failed to get the session bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
Falling back to non-factory mode. Failed to summon the GConf demon; exiting. Failed to contact configuration server; the most common cause is a missing or misconfigured D-Bus session bus daemon. See [URL] for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.) I am running it as root, have GNOME installed and running, and also fresh install of gconf.
Consider that I am building my application in Linux shell using make command but somehow the build fails. Is there any way I can find out that the build has failed (of course looking at shell for error messages will do the job for me but I don't want that). Is there any flag make or shell will set/reset if such failure occurs ?
I am running an application called QuantiSNP [URL]. The binary file is "quantisnp2", called upon in the "run_quantisnp2.sh" supplied by the authors. I am only able to run the application for single file processing (e.g. 1 input file for 1 sample; I can't run the batch file processing because I don't have the necessary BeadStudio report files, which has different formatting for the input files).
The difficulty is that I have 300 samples (300 unique sample IDs) and 3 input files for each sample for a total of 900 runs of this application. I am wondering how would I be able to automate this process as a shell script instead of basically manually changing the sample ID and respective input files every time a run completes? I bolded the single file processing shell script command line options below that need to be changed for each sample/input single file processing run. The command line option "--sampleid" is for the name given to the processed output files corresponding to the sample of interest and there are 3 input files for each sample.
We have zabbix Network monitoring tool installed on two servers 172.17.11.6 ( Master ) and 172.17.11.3 ( Slave ) RHEL 5.4 Servers with 172.17.11.4 being Virtual Ipaddress.We are trying to implement High Availability with Red Hat Cluster Suite.OS level Clustering has been implemented with following cluster configuraiton.
But we need to implement Application level clustering for Zabbix_server process which inturn depends on httpd and mysqld deamons to be running.So I have to check the health of mysqld and httpd with a shell script along with the health of zabbix_server process.Any good tutorials for this ? Any guidlines that I have to follow ?Here I may need to take care of following things when any one of the process goes down
1. Shifhting Virtual IP 2. Shifting /dev/sdb1 ( Shared drive to slave ) 3. stopping other services on master 4. starting all the services on slave
I'm going to be doing some field testing of Ubuntu for compatibility on various laptops. I'd like to have a USB stick containing the latest kernel, drivers, packages, etc. I already have one prepared with the 10.10 release, but there have been many updates since then and no 10.10.1 release thus far.
Is it possible to update my existing flash drive to the latest and greatest...using the software update tool while booted using the drive? ...from within an existing Ubuntu 10.10 installation? .manually?
I installed debian 8.1, network install on a ThinkPad T60. When I right click the Desktop, I don't get "Create New -> link to application" and other links. In mint 17.1, I get a Menu with all links. I want to create a link to seamonkey with an icon on desktop.
how do I create a launcher for an application using DosBox? I tried in Alacarte, but it does not show up. I did this both as root and as user.Disregard. It did create the launchers. It just put them in "Other" even though I told it to create them in "Internet" so they are there, but just not where I want them. That is okay since now I can add them to my favorites and put them in the order I want.
I guess I will like Gnome 3 better as I find tweaks to make it work like I want it to work. Still though, it is not nearly as user friendly as my heavily tweaked Gnome 2 with Compiz.Another question though: How do I get it to select and use a photo I want for the background instead of the stock images? It is annoying as all get-out to have the screen turn to grey rather than stay the way I want it. :
Ok I just downloaded this program called Phex, it is a really cool program and i get it to run, but only from command line. I downloaded this program and its already compiled and works fine but i can only launch it from a command line by typing "java -jar phex.jar" I have created launchers before and they have worked, but this one just doesn't work. I have all permissions on the directory and the files, but how to create a launcher for this file.
I'm trying to develop a Qt application with Eclipse.What I've is what you see. A Form with a text, and 3 buttons:[URL] A button is for exit application, another is for clear text field and the third is for changing text. The first two buttons work fine, but the third doesn't.The only I want for the change button is to change text "original" by "modified"
I want to create a customize CD of selected application of centos & want same can be auto installed on fresh machine without any user interventions( like partition etc). I mean u just put the cd in drive & it directly give you login screen . that's all (but installation must be on HDD)
I decided to try and find a home inventory application. I found one called "Attic Manager" that works in Ubuntu. [URL]
The instructions are to run it from the terminal. That's ok for once and a while, but a pain if used regularly. So I tried to set up a launcher for it. I couldn't seem to get it to work. In the command, I simply put in the path and file name, but can't seem to get it to work.
I would like to create some aliases for bash shell. On other Unix/Linux machines I have done this using the alias command like this: alias rm rm -i
When I type that into a terminal on Ubuntu, it looks like alias is not installed. I get this:
bash: alias: rm: not found bash: alias: rm: not found bash: alias: -i: not found
I tried adding the alias to .bashrc instead, but then I get the same error message every time I start terminal. Just for fun I tried apt-get install alias, just to see what would happen, and it installed something called libperl-alias instead, and alias still doesn't work.
