Ubuntu :: 'unsave' A Session (list Of Currently Running Programs)?
Nov 6, 2010
System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications -> Options -> Remember Currently-Running Applications I have Skype added to the startup applications list. This works fine. After doing the above, two instances of Skype are starting up every time - and I have not checked the "Automatically remember ... " checkbox. I could not find a way to undo this. After doing the above again, three instances of Skype are starting up every time.
Basically I would like to know if there's is an actual web page that can be searched for the programs available under yum. I have yumex and I've tried using it but its super slow to search (sometimes it takes 5 minutes) and I would like some webpage or other method of doing a search.
I made this thread last night~[URL]... Because my Ubuntu failed, and i have no idea why. I hadnt done anything different or risky.. and Ive no idea what to do. So, It appears Im going to have to do a re-install. Which, I really dont mind too much... (especially with Ubuntu) But It will stink if i *again* lose all my bookmarks , and lose track of all my installed programs. The programs, not as much of an issue as the bookmarks in my browser.. I would like to know, If I can somehow access the HDD from the LiveCD, So that I can create just a simple text list of all programs installed on the hdd? I cannot access my HDD except through the LiveCD So is there a way I can do this? Some kind of simple command I can toss into terminal, and have it output me a text file of all programs installed? or something? I really am totally clueless on how I would be able to save my chromium bookmarks.
I noticed that some applications are still in the startup applications list even after i have removed these applications.Would there be any app files left over anywhere / is there a command i can run to clean up the filesystem.Or is it just a case of removing them from the startup app list?
I'm guessing Red Hat (and therefor Centos) backport programs like newer Open Offices. Is this true? If so, is there a list of programs that they maintain actively?
I have been messing around with ettercap and with with a little bit of arping. Running out of things to do though! New programs? If you list a program i can probably find some guides on how to use it
I have both a mac and ubuntu box sitting on my desk. I work on the mac and access the ubuntu box over ssh.Often I need the point-and-click interface of the ubuntu box, at which point I run gnome-session. The problem is that the top and bottom menu bars fill the full size available to them, which can cause me problems (I use two different-sized screens and the barsget hidden), and overall it looks very messy. I would therefore like to confine the gnome-session to a window, much like you get with vnc (or parallels if you're running a virtual ubuntu session).
I am using SSH to access a UNIX running red had Linux. If possible I would like to invoke the GUI on my connection. Is there a way I could do that e.g by exporting the display or running X-server.
I used to use kubuntu last years, but I decide to give Ubuntu a try instead.A thing that was working on kubuntu's KDE by default, is that when you close your session, the system remembers what applications was you using, so in the next boot up they will be open exactly as it was.I would like to have this feature also on my Ubuntu 10.04, but I've been not lucky searching for the option to enable it.
I frequently access my home computer throughout the day in two ways: either locally, or remotely using nxserver/nxclient. As one user, I have two concurrent X-windows sessions running, possibly with different applications running in each. Is it possible to move a running application from one session to the other? That is, I want all the active windows related to the app to disappear from one desktop,
I am running matlab 2010b on centOS5.6. Matlab opened without any error either in the computer terminal or in VNCSERVER. While running bench (of matlab) the session or the vncserver are crashing.In some cases the bench run for the first time without any problems, however it will crash the session or the vncserver on the 2-3 runs of the same code.
My problems is that after i've DL a program and then use unrar to open up the files...I was able to successfully mount a linux version game using Furious ISO mount (the game is Civilization call to power loki) Now I can see the files inside the folder but I can't figure out how to run the game after its mounted
I've looked around a lil bit and I know someone has probably asked this question before but most of what i find is people asking how to mount the image to begin with
I have a dual boot system, Windows 7 and a WUBI installed Ubuntu 10.04, both are 64 bit. Can I use Wine to run a program installed on the Windows partition? If so is there anything special I need to do? My Ubuntu partition is really small and I:d like to keep it that way.
Are there potential compatibility problems if a KDE program is installed and run under Gnome in the standard Ubuntu Desktop 10.10? If two programs with the same functions are available, is it better to select the Gnome version?
How can we put ssh/putty session running even after in standby or disconnected mode.The idea is to have run a long running job from my notebook, which may take 6-8 hours, and if i come next day, there should be interrupt with it.
How do I obtain information about the running x-server from a remote shell session? I want to know things like resolution, color depth, etc. My xorg.conf is basically empty. The only thing I can think of doing is to read the Xorg.0.log file which seems inefficient.
I thought that 'xrandr' displayed some text output but that behavior has changed (?). It seems to require an X display. Is there another way? Something I could incorporate into a shell script? (This is Fedora but that shouldn't really matter)
I want to run X window graphical application over ssh session on my server running Centos 5.5 . i used the -X flag for ssh (ssh -X user@serverip). i checked the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file on the server and i have the line "X11Forwarding yes". but i can not run any X applicaton. when i use root account i get the message: xauth: creating new authority file /root/.serverauth.15813

Everything works fine; No problems running WinXP from an ISO, etc. I have several Windows only applications which I want to run on the WinXP VM. I cannot see the programs I have downloaded when using Explorer for Windows.Ordinarily, in a WinXP only system, I just find the program to be installed and double click on it to start the automatic installation routine.In this case, I cannot see any of the .exe files used for the install.I have placed those downloaded Windows application in the same directory on my Ubuntu Box as where VirtualBox, the Sun Guest Editions and the CD Image of the Garmin Trip and Map system.I installed the Garmin system directly from and ISO of the CD I made using Brasero. It works without a hitch.Should I take the Windows e.e programs and burn them to a CD and then transfer them as ISO tback to the VM drive?
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04, and for some reason I get a segfault whenever running programs with OpenGL. I ran "lspci | grep VGA" in the terminal and this is the output:
Code: 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M92 [Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series]
i used to run wine and a windows chat program. I got away from linux for a while, but now am back, but the same program i used to run, now gives and error.. to check my internet connection. <urlopen error [Errno 5] Access denided> I gave the program the permission to run, but what am i missing?
so i've just been sitting here, compiling and running some c++ programs (with g++ from the terminal), I looked away for one minute to open a file that had just been written out (opened it with gedit if that makes a difference), now my terminal says:kbuildsyscoca4 running...so I'm wondering if anyone knows what this is about?hy it suddenly started running and why it has appeared on my terminal. I'm basically just curious as I though bash shells were entirely separate virtualizations of shells, and unrepresentative of other processes. i'm also wondering what kbuildsyscoca4 is/does (i've got gnome going on and generally gnome varieties of programs). I found a post from about a year ago mentioning the same thing, though no replies.
im try to run modding programs for xbox which are all for window (.exe) but the ones that dont have an install they just click and run in windows dont open my laptop thinks about it and doesnt open them here are the programs that dont work

This next command will cause the program to load, move, but it keeps focusing itself like xdotool is running the windowmove function constantly - it keeps focusing itself until script stopped.
This had the same effect as the above code, but seems to work as a conditional subscript running when the process is running in the terminal - it just goes infinitely.
Code:
while [1] ; do xdotool search "calculator" windowmove 135 0 done exit
Is there some kind of "if, then" or "while, do" or some kind of conditional I can put in to the script ensure the window is moved only once if the program is running within the terminal? Is there a way to remove the program from the terminal from the script once it's been called?
If I let my computer sit for about 10 minutes, I lose all the windows I had open (gnome) and i get a message saying I'm running in low graphics mode. I have to restart X in low graphics mode to get it to work. i can't tell the difference, but as an avid writer, I often feel the need to get up and think about whatever I have open in oowriter.
I have ubuntu 10.04 & I telnet to windows vista. Even if I create a hidden process [URL].. from batch file . It seems the process gets killed when I end connection at port 23 to host. Maybe , the hidden process created is still child of current telnet session so tree is killed as session ends. Is there a way to keep process running even after telnet session has ended ?
Running Ubuntu 10.04 to 10.04 over LAN; I can SSH -X into my server just fine, and am able to launch various applications (Nautilus, Gnome-Terminal, Disk Utility, etc) but I'd really like a Gnome desktop. When I've tried the various StartX commands and gnome-session, but something just isn't clicking. Is there a way to have a 'second' Gnome session running on the client over the first?
To pre-empt some obvious solutions; I don't wish to use VNC, the lag drives me nuts, and I'd like to keep my gnome session running on the client machine if possible. If it's not possible, that's fine; it just seems like there'd be a way to do it?
