Thinking of turning my GUI into a big terminal with openbox on top and was thinking, where would I find a command-line timer tool?

I've been happily using Ubuntu 10.04 without any problems.I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10, and now whenever I click the Blender application file I get an error saying that theres no program set to run this application. I get a similar error when I try to run Voodoo (the open-source camera tracker). Mind you, both these programs ran just fine on Ubuntu 10.04. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

i'm new to ubuntu and i'm trying to get ettercap to work. I installed it with the command: sudo apt-get install etterca-gtk and the program was installed succesfully. But when i open the program from the terminal with: sudo ettercap -G or just open it from applications => internet : ubuntu crashes ! I can't move my mouse and can't do anything. But if I don't run the applications as root from the terminal : ettercap -G
The application opens but then I'm noty able to select an interface.
it's really easy to launch an application using alt+f2 without having to worry about it while it's running but in terminal the window must remain open and you can't run anything else while the application is running e.g. firefox, rhythmbox. does anyone know how to run applications in the background while using terminal?

how to install 32 bit libraries on Fedora 64 bit.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using Fedora 13 64bit on Dell Vostro full 4GB RAM system with default Gnome GUI.
This is very annoying problem that I don't how to fix except by rebooting the whole PC.
When I have too many applications running ( like browser windows), the system start acting sluggish. The fist symptoms appear in Eclipse IDE which becomes so terrible it just becomes frozen for sometime one whole minute after I try to edit something in the editor. Then Firefox seems like it has crashed. Google Chrome becomes very unresponsive as well. All GUI applications including File manager becomes unresponsive.
When I check System Monitor, the CPU is still around 20% and memory is at 80% but the system seems getting fried up. This progressively becomes worse until I soft reboot it or if I dont do it evetually the whole system is fried, no response to any keyboard key or mouse and I have to hit the hardware turn off button.
I regularly yum update the system but this makes no difference.
Please don't tell not to run too many applications because I need those for my work. I thought Linux is well designed Operating System but I am very disappointed so far.
All my applications seem to be running at nice of 19 except bash and daemons which are running at 0. My understanding is that the default nice value is either 0 or 10 (forget which) but not 19.Ran search in /etc/sysconfig/ editor and no results for "nice" and looked at the bashrc files and again no lines contain "nice".

View 2 Replies View RelatedJust got a problem that I've spent a few days trying to get around. Basically, what I am trying to do is create launchers/shortcuts on my desktop that will
a) Launch a terminal with root or sudo access
b) Launch an application.
For example, an application I might ordinarily use as a super user or root user is 'hping3.'
Basically, I want to be able to click on the launcher, and have it open up a terminal with sudo access and launch the hping3 application. I've tried messing around with the 'create launcher' function, and entering in a command to be launched in a terminal window, but to no avail (e.g. something like "sudo hping3" or "su && hping3"). How to write up a simple script to launch a terminal with su access and launch a given application?

example:
Im not sure why they aren't working - but my startup applications are not running at boot. They run fine from terminal.
I have a startup application for Xchat and the command is just xchat (which works fine from terminal) but it isn't loading at? - I have checked and im not running in safe mode or anything like that - just the standard ubuntu desktop).

View 2 Replies View RelatedAs a long time Windows user, I am stuck on the basics of installing and running downloaded Linux applications. I've tried to read a few tutorials but am still baffled. I am using a Puppy based boot CD and, of course, the applications that come with the Puppy all work fine. It is when I try to add something new that I become lost. Example: I just downloaded a Linux version of the Firefox browser.
I click on the downloaded file in the Download Manager and kinda expect the thing to give me a executable set-up file, but just get a whole bunch of files. One available option is to "extract" them. I create a folder to extract them to and "extract". With Firefox I see nothing in that folder. With a few other applications, I see an extracted list of files but and try to find one file that will magically start and install or boot an application, but nothing ever happens. So, how does one download , extract, install, and then run a basic application? The references I have found on the Internet tend to be rather old or more complex that my brain can handle.
I installed the proprietary fglrx drivers, and they didn't really do anything other than break half my software or make it slower. Now the first time I installed the .run binary by just doing 'sh ati-driver-installer-10-3-x86.x86_64'. Then, after Google'ing on how to remove it, I just did 'rmmod fglrx' outside of X and deleted all the kernel modules manually. And that seemed to fix a few things, but not all.
Then I found another thread saying just turn the .run into a pkg, do installpkg, and removepkg, and I did that as well. It fixed most of the problems and seems to have deleted all traces of the fglrx ATI driver.Now, though, anytime I try to run anything 3D, like glxgears, instead of just giving me a segmentation fault, it says:
Code:
glxgears: error while loading shared libraries: libatiuki.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I've Google'd but nothing related came up, Also I can post my xorg.conf file but I don't think that is the cause of this, because I ran 'xorgsetup' and messed around with it some, and it was doing this even before I ran 'xorgsetup' and after I ran it / modified it.
I recently upgraded from 11.3 to 11.4 succesfully. I had to reinstall several applications and, some of them, can't be configured as default from the control panel (e.g. Opera as default browser, VLC as default media player). The problem is that droplists at the prefered applications don't show any other than the default ones, Firefox and TotemIs there a way I can change these settings via command line or a way to fix what applications are shown at the control panel?
