View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Xvnc Sessions Do Not Allow Program Or Terminal Launching?
Feb 12, 2010I just added 8 additional vncserver sessions(Xvnc) (using a well-documented procedure my predecessor used) to my RH Enterprise 2.4.21-4 (OK it went by fast) server. This brings the number of session listed in my /etc/sysconfig/vncservers file to ~32. Applications and terminals now seem to choose if they will open or not in the Xvnc session and not all sessions start at boot. I can start them manually, and they will work, but then they stop working properly. You can open a session, view the active desktop, click on menus and associated drop-down items to try and open apps, but the apps/terminals just won't open. Is there a limit to the number Xvnc Sessions that can be managed? If so, what is it? This happens whether I try to connect from a Winddows box or another Linux box.

Jun 7, 2011I was doing some rather lengthy procedures using a terminal. Then I wrote script using Kate, and input it into that terminal, and then realized that I was logged in as a normal user in that terminal as opposed to a superuser, which is how I was logged in at the other terminal. I've never noticed this before because I've never done anything that takes this long.
Is there any way to link all terminal sessions in such a way that they all show me logged in as the same user? I don't even know if this is even important, but I don't want to risk losing any things that I had done.
General :: Using Script To Automatically Record Terminal Sessions When A User Logs In?
Mar 3, 2010I'm trying to set up automatic recording of user sessions when they login without their knowledge. I tried sticking the script command into /etc/profile and but that didn't really work. I also tried /etc/bashrc but that had the same affect.I have also tried setting the shell in /etc/passwd to SHELL=/bin/bash /usr/bin/script -q /testing.txt.

Jan 15, 2011I am trying to write a bash script that would save the current state of my konsole terminals and sessions. I'm using KDE3.X and for some reason the "profile" save does not save the current working directories... Anyway, I would like to know if there is an elegant way to obtain the current workdir of each terminal and session ? I've managed to do something with a clever use of DCOP extended functions, but it requires me to start every konsole with the --script option enabled, and I don't want to do that.

Jan 2, 2010GDM has no session options listed when I click on my username. I should have openbox and lxde. I read that GDM finds it's sessions from /usr/share/xsessions so I checked there and I have desktop files for both. currently I'm using WDM and it's working fine.

Oct 17, 2010I have Lucid Lynx 10.04 installed on my eee 900ha and I'm unable to log in to my desktop.
Earlier today I logged in successfully and I uninstalled a couple of unused programs (pitivi, evolution, fspot, and another that I can't remember). I then shut down the computer. Later when I booted the computer back up, I was greeted with the usual ubuntu login screen but I noticed that there were no options in the sessions drop-up menu. I entered my login information and pressed enter, and the screen went black, then went back to the login screen again.
I'm using gnome.
Ubuntu :: Different Gnome Sessions For VNC Display?
May 31, 2010i have tightVNCserver running to provide me with a means of working on my machine whilst the wife watches mythTV on the (physical) display.
in 8.04 i used to have "gnome-panel &" as a line in my /home/mike/.vnc/xstartup file, and it worked fine, when i logged in via VNC i had a nice gnome panel to start apps from etc.
since 10.04 this stopped working and i had to change gnome-panel to gnome-session. this works... but now it loads everything up in the VNC window just like it does in my main window. this is a problem because it loads things like mythTV front end and so on... i don't want it to do that in my VNC window.
does anyone know how it might be possible for me to have two different 'types' of gnome session? Settings i change in System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications are common to both my VNC and my physical displays so i can't turn off mythTVfrontend in there to solve the problem.
i'm not sure why gnome-panel stopped working in my xstartup file, but it happened when i upgraded from 8.04 to 10.04. if i try it in the ugly xterm window on VNC i get:
Code:
Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":1.0".
** (gnome-panel:26161): WARNING **: Cannot register the panel shell: cannot connect to the session bus. the RANDR stuff i get when i launch gnome-session too so i think its the second bit that's the real problem.

Ubuntu :: Will It Be Possible To Maintain Multiple Sessions
Oct 4, 2010Will it be possible to maintain multiple sessions from Ubuntu?Actually we are working on one open source application and we have setup this application on one of our Ubuntu machine and this would act as a server for other developer's windows machine. Is any utility available(preferable open source) using which we will be able to access the Ubuntu server from all 4-5 developer's Windows machines?
Our requirement will be to access the whole system including console and GUI (same like remotely access) by using different sessions so that all 4-5 developers can start work together on the same Ubuntu machine.

Jul 14, 2011I assume that any .desktop file that is found inside code...
but I do not see an entry for it in the list of sessions. The same is true if I go to "System -> Administration -> Login Screen" - I don't see all sessions in the list for the default sessions.
what's going on here? Do I need to tell GDM to go through this list again? I've tried restarting GDM but no success. This is ubuntu 11.04 btw.

Mar 10, 2009I am following directions to set up my Ubuntu Installation (8.10) for Netbook Remix. As part of the directions it asks me at the end to:
Add netbook-launcher (if using 8.10) to your startup programs. Go to System>Preferences>Sessions and add entry for this command.
I went to sessions to do it and see Netbook Launcher listed and selected to add it but it prompts me with the following menu:
Name
Command

What do I put in these blanks so that I can set this up? For Command it gives me the option to browse.

Ubuntu :: Dual Monitor Seperate X11 Sessions
Jun 12, 2010I've got two monitors setup and it seems the only way to get separate gamma and brightness settings working on separate screens is through separate X sessions.
The problem though is after setting up and configuring Compiz the second monitor only displays the wallpaper and lets me move my mouse onto it i don't get any gnome panels nor do i get a menu if i right click on the desktop which suggests that gnome doesn't load on the other monitor at all or is out of bounds of the resolution.
It seemed to go like this during the configuring of Compiz as the right monitor windows and such seemed to crash then since then its just been the symptoms I described.
I'm including my Xorg.conf incase its of any use.
Code:
# nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings
# nvidia-settings: version 1.0 (buildd@yellow) Fri Apr 9 11:51:21 UTC 2010

Ubuntu :: Unable To Login/sessions Missing
Jun 12, 2010Yesterday, after I logged out of Ubuntu (Lucid Lynx), I was unable to log back in. When I enter my password the screen goes blank for a second and then it returns to the login menu. Also, I have noticed that there are no sessions to choose from (e.g. Gnome, Unity, etc.). Maybe this has something to do with it.
The last thing I did before logging out for the last time was removing a package called "indicator-datetime", which I got from installing Unity. Maybe this information isn't useful but it really seemed to me like it caused my problem.
Ubuntu :: Run Sessions Menu From Command Line?
Jul 8, 2010I want to find a way to bring up the session menu without using the Indicator Applet Session in the default gnome panel. I've figured out how to do this for the main menu with a keyboard shortcut (Alt+F1). And I found Ubuntu documentation here that says Super+Esc will bring up the Sessions Menu in Lucid but it doesn't work for me. I could create a custom launcher if I knew what command would bring up this menu but I can't find any info on this. Basically I want to get rid of the default gnome panel but still have the functionality of the Sessions Menu.Note: I removed the Me Menu from my Indicator Applet Session by running sudo apt-get remove indicator-me in a terminal. Would this be interfering with the keyboard shortcut?
View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Make 2 X Sessions Output Simultaneously?
Sep 12, 2010I started a new x session on tty8. This is display 1. The first session is tty7 display 0.
I can switch between them easily enough. CTRL ALT F7 goes to tty7. CTRL ALT F8 goes to tty8.
But if I try to run, say, the "import" command for screenshots on tty8, while switched to tty7, all it gives is a black screen.
The reason being, I think, because only one session is actually outputting at any given time. How do I make both of them output, so I can take a screenshot on 1 session, but use the other session to do other stuff?
Ubuntu :: Add CHMOD Privileges To Filezilla FTP Sessions?
Feb 12, 2011I'm trying to recreate a website on a local system using LAMPP. I need to change some file permissions on localhost.
I have tried running a normal Filezilla session, as well as running as root but the system always denies Filezilla permissions.
I know I can do it directly using CHMOD on it's own but I would like to try to replicate the FTP sessions I can run on my remote server where I can change permissions in Filezailla without issue.
Ubuntu :: Only 'no Effects' Sessions Load Correctly?
Apr 30, 2011If I choose 'Ubuntu' (i.e Unity) or 'Classic' then no bars/menus load and I'm left with just a desktop. Chossing 'Classic No Effects' is the only sessions which gives me menu bars.I'm guessing this is related to the 3D driver not functioning correctly.

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Missing Incoming Sessions In Empathy?
May 17, 2011This is an odd one, and it's probably just my system - I don't receive half of the new MSN messages I get sent. If I talk to someone and leave the window open, I'll get all of their messages; if I close the window, there's only a 10% chance I'll get their reply.
This happened once before, and telepathy-logger was having a fit; it's not this time. Has anyone else encountered any issues in the new release?
Amendment: Pidgin seems to work ok, but I miss the empathy integration; the pidgin plugin for notifications takes the edge off for now.
Ubuntu :: Restoring Saved Nautilus Sessions?
Jun 13, 2011When I go to "/home/scribe/.config/session-state" I see several files that begin with the word "nautilus" and they have various date time stamps that lead me to believe they are snapshots of the nautilus folders I had opened on that day.
Is there an easy way I could "execute" on of those files so it would open up all of the nautilus windows I had opened on a particular day?
Ubuntu :: A File Manager That Can Save Sessions?
Jun 13, 2011Is there a file manager that I can use for Ubuntu which has a "session restore" feature.

Each set of tabs are related to a topic I am working on.

General :: Ubuntu - Create Several Screen Sessions On Startup?
Oct 10, 2010Firstly, what's the best way to execute commands on startup, cron? Can I use su in a shell script to switch between different users, if so how?
How do I create several detached screen sessions on startup? screen -A -m -d -S test ./script.sh seems like it should work but using it in a script started by cron doesn't show any screen sessions running after booting.
It looks like the screen session is closed after the command finishes executing, can I keep it open so I can see the output?
