I want to make gnome shell my default window manager. I have it installed, and can get it to run from the terminal with gnome-shell --replace.
the effects aren't permanent though. I tried setting gnome-shell to be a start up application but this hasn't worked. I dont want to remove compiz or metacity before knowing if I can get gnome-shell to run by default somehow.
So, how can I get gnome-shell to be my default windows manager?
Is there a way to make it so that opening an executable text file will automatically run, rather than prompt me to run, edit, or something else?

View 1 Replies View Relatedhow to enable the Gnome Shell with an AMD 6950 graphics card and the default Fedora 15 drivers? I may try the AMD Catalyst proprietary drivers but from history those usually lag behind the Fedora versions. I also read some people had issues with the current AMD Catalyst drivers in the Catalyst guide thread.
Also, the AMD 6950 graphics card fan is at full speed all the time in Fedora 15. I do believe you can with the Catalyst drivers using aticonfig but was wondering about the default Fedora 15 drivers?

I was trying to find a shell script that will encode video to a an iso that I can burn for a dvd. It seems I have lost a few of my dvds and I backed them up into mkv and I need to convert it to pal so it will work until I find them. My search was leading to other formats, but I was wanting to use pal because it is smaller. My search lead me here, but this shell script is not in pal.I need a solution that would work with slackware.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm relatively experienced with UNIX and Linux, but this has me thrown for quite a loop, and it seemed like such a simple question. How would I go about finding the newest file in a file system? I thought something like:
Code:
ls -ltr `find /usr -type f`
would work, but I seem to be exceeding the argument maximum for ls:
ksh: 0403-029 There is not enough memory available now
I thought something involving xargs might work, but I really suck with that command.
I wrote a small script that gets me the list of enabled system accounts in my system.
I figure '*' & '!' (in field #2 of /etc/shadow) mean that the account is disabled or they cannot login, hence 'safe-to-ignore'
Code:
IFS=$'
'
for i in `cat /etc/passwd` #get each line in the passwd file
do
var1=`echo $i | cut -d':' -f3` #get user ID field
if [ $var1 -lt 500 ] && [ $var1 -gt 0 ] #compare to extract relevant IDs
[Code].....
BTW i figure the following command gives me the list of system users, but i am not able to find a way to process it further... :-(
Code:
awk -F":" '$3 >= 1 && $3 < 500 { print $1 }' /etc/passwd
