Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 DVD Hanging - No Window Opened To Start Process

Dec 27, 2010

I downloaded Ubuntu 10.10 and made created a DVD. When I started installing it, I'm not able to do it. I think its hanging. This is what happening: First I found a screen saying 'ubuntu 10.10' and it loaded for some time then I got a screen with a black color task bar at the top of the screen, then after some time it turned into white color and after some time it disappeared. Nothing else happened. I didn't find any pop-up window to start installation of OS..

But when I tried this in my friends house, I found that instead of 'ubuntu 10.10' there came 'Ubuntu' LOGO and it was little bit slow but a pop-up window opened to start installation..
Why its not coming in my PC..
my computer configuration :
Windows XP, SP 2
256 MB RAM, 1.81 Ghz
AMD 64 Athlon Processor 1800+
I want to shift my OS to Ubuntu completely.

Ubuntu :: Avoiding Terminal Closing After Running Script

May 7, 2010

[using Ubuntu 10.04 - Gnome] I know this is probably a dumb question, but after few years of not using linux i'm back to it and trying to catch up what i already forgot... i'm trying to make a shell script were when all the commands end or when i interrupt it (using ctrl+c) it wont close my terminal window.

i made a test scrip like this:

#!/bin/sh
echo hi there

and created a launcher by right clicking create launcher, selected console application, naming it and putting in the command field: sh "<path to file>/test.sh". (without sh at start it wont work)

so how can i avoid shell window closing after running/terminating the script? and is there any way i can do this by doing something like right click>add new link... i think that in kde it works like that...

Ubuntu :: Function With Closing Only Applicable Gnome-terminal?

Oct 26, 2010

I wrote this little function that I use from my '~/.bashrc' (from a script I also made, with help) to run a program on a timer, however there is one small issue I'm having.

Code:
##### Run program on a timer
# Usage: program-timer <program> <runlength (in secs)>
function program-timer()
{
$1 &
mypid=`eval ps ax|grep "$1"|grep -iv "grep"| awk '{print $1}'`

[Code]...

Basically, it works just fine, but the issue I'd love to get help with is when the timer runs out, it doesn't shutdown the program. That is, not until I close gnome-terminal. I've tried 'exit' in several places, but it doesn't seem to close it.

Now, the above script does what I want, but using 'killall gnome-terminal' not only closes the gnome-terminal window I am running the function on, but ALL gnome-terminal windows I may have open.

Does anybody see a simple way to fix my small dilemma, to have it close only the gnome-terminal window I'm running the function on?

Ubuntu :: Prevent Application In Terminal From Auto Closing

Jan 15, 2011

I've made custom launchers for programs that can only run in terminal. They open fine within the Terminal window, but it closes right after the program is finished, before I can read the report.

Is there a way to keep the Terminal window open, using launchers? I don't want to manually type the commands after opening a Terminal.

Ubuntu :: Run A Java Process In The Background Of A Terminal ?

Feb 16, 2011

I am running Ubuntu 10.10, and I am trying to run a java process in the background of a terminal, so I can continue to use that terminal.

Here is my command syntax, along with some commands I have tried and their outputs:

There were [1]- entries, but I removed them for simplicity.

Ubuntu :: Output Data To Running Process In Terminal?

Jul 10, 2011

There is text based game in the Ubuntu repos called gomoku (just 5 in a row) it comes with the package bsdgames. The manual page [URL] lists an option (-b) to run it in the background. I want to try that and if I know how it works create a simple graphical front-end. When I start the program with:

Code:
gomoku -b

it starts and remains active, the terminal does not return to prompt which is OK as the command is not finished. The manual says the program reads from stdin, and this might sound stupid but how to get anything there?

I've tried to pipe an echo command to gomoku which works but ends the program after is receives input.

Code:
echo "black" | gomoku -b

just finishes. After that when you type another command like:

Code:
echo "justsometext" | gomoku -b

gomoku tells it expects either black or white as input. So it forgot the previous "black" because it is a new instance.

How do I pass text to an already running gomoku?

Software :: Forking A Process Into A New Terminal?

Mar 3, 2011

I am trying to create two processes , a parent process and a child process where each of them have their respective CLI. At any point, the user should be able to switch between the CLI of the parent and child processes. I could find three possible approaches to the problem

1) fork the child process into a new terminal

2) activate the CLI of only the process which is currently in the foreground.

3) Write a script (.bashrc triggers this script on login) to start the two processes separately in two different terminals, such that the second process is triggered once the first process reaches a certain stage in execution.

The first approach probably requires the controlling terminal of the child process to be changed. Can this be achieved ? The second approach will require for the process (parent/child) to itself to know everytime it is put in background / foreground so that its CLI operations can be suspended/resumed respectively. Is this possible? Can a script start programs in a new terminal other than the one it is running in?

Fedora :: Bash Cannot Set Terminal Process Group

Nov 17, 2009

Urgent: on reboot, the Fedora 11 lower bars reach about 70-80%, then I get the message:

/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root: (There are 22 inodes containing multiply-claimed blocks.)
File /home/burnie/.thumbnails/normal/[bunchofhexits].png (inode #15826, mod time Mon Nov 2 04:24:26 2009) has 13 multiply-claimed blocks, shared with 1 file:

[code]....

Just in case this is relevant, yesterday I spent several hours attempting (and failing) to build IcedTea in order to run a Java web service that required it. After the failure occurred, I exited Linux and went to Windows Vista to run the web service, and found that Vista cannot support 64-bit Firefox, so I rebooted to Linux, and ran make clean on the Iced Tea installation, which balked because a stamps directory could not be deleted because it was not empty; I followed this by make distclean which made the same complaint. So I manually deleted the files in the stamps subdirectory, ran make distclean "cleanly", and then rebooted to reach my current very unsatisfactory state.

Ubuntu :: Automatically Run A Process In A Screen Session And Then Detach And Quit Terminal

Jul 24, 2010

There are often times when the best way to launch an application is from the terminal, but it is a graphical application and after it is launched the terminal is useless.

Examples of places where a terminal is convenient are when a process starts lots of child processes and is also unstable; you can be sure to kill all of its children simply by using Ctrl-C at the terminal. Also it allows me to read program output and to set up the terminal environment to be optimal for the application (for example "unset LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT")

With GNU screen, I can get around the hassle of having a terminal window open by using something like the following in a terminal window:

Code:
screen
my_command
Ctrl-A d

and then I can close the terminal and the program will keep running. Then I just type "screen -r <Tab>" (the tab will get me my screen session if there is only one such session) in any terminal window, even a tty, and I can get the screen session back and use Ctrl-c or something.

So my question is, is there a way to do this automatically so that a launcher or script will start a screen session, inside that screen session start a process, and then detach from that screen session without me having to manually open and close a terminal and type the commands?
