Ubuntu :: Command To Increase Time Before Lockout?
Jun 11, 2011
I am running Ubuntu 11.04 on a dual boot with Windows 7 Home Premium (32 bit) Dell Inspiron 560s.
As long as I am engaged in activity in Ubuntu all is well. However, if I leave my computer to get a cup of coffee I find on my return the computer screen is blank and when I activate it a window comes up asking me to enter my password to take it out of lockout, leave a message etc.
I can't seem to find the appropriate command to increase the time before I get locked out.
What steps can I take to increase the time the system stays active before I am kicked out and have enter my password again?

I have a Lucid machine that is driving me bonkers by constantly locking the desktop screen, forcing me to enter my password each time to unlock it. I have looked everywhere but cannot find out where to change this setting.

I have installed Fedora10 on my PC which had an XP. Now Fedora waits just 2-3 seconds to press any key to choose between XP and Fedora. Actually if I don't press any key it automatically begins Fedora. How can I increase this time interval?

I am trying to get the time of my wall clock from my wireless driver in form of "hh:mm:ss", so I used the function get_rtc_time() inside my driver to get that and it was done. My question: Is it possible to increase the accuracy of this function, for example if I want to get the milliseconds and the Microseconds in additional to the first output? If not, Is there any other function can do that?

anyone know how to turn off or adjust the lockout feature in ubuntu.I am running the new 10.04. With this feature after I am idle for time til I am brought back to the login screen, this is very annoying for me and I have to keep unlocking multiple times a day.Hopefully there is a way to configure this behavior.I am note sure if this is something specirfic to 10.04.

I know I need a better title, but don't have one.
The problem is when watching a video F15 Gnome decides to send me to the unlock screen. Think that's what it's called. So I have to type in my pass.
A little bit later, same thing. So how can I prevent it from happening?

I'm timing how long it takes to run a command foo. I'm looking to append the results from the time command to a file, and discard the results from the foo command. I tried the following, but it didn't do what I want:
$ time ./foo > /dev/null >> output_from_time_command.txt

I use two monitors,my problem is that I want to change the setup,so that the other monitor becomes default.There's no problem with my BIOS settings and I have tried every GUI tool that could help me(to my knowledge).Well I've found this URL...that helps a lot but I want to execute the command every time I boot before the splash screen(so that the login screen appears on the right monitor).I've tried rc.local but had no success.Any ideas on how to execute the command at boot time?

I decided to install Chromium OS to my dad's netbook, and it works perfectly. The only problem is that i can't change the time. Luckily, I can access a command line by pressing CTRL+ALT+T. So maybe I can change it from the command line.

I am trying to use the time command to measure the execution time of a small program. The problem is that the command has three outputs. They look like this:
Code:
$ time ./a.out
real0m51.935s
user0m51.060s
sys0m0.040s
Should the execution time be the sum of the user and the sys time? sys time is really small.

On Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4, I enter the command:net time set -I 192.59.196.66Where 192.59.196.66 is the IP address of a Windows Server 2008 time serverThe response is:/bin/date 071218072010.20 failed. Error was (Success)The actual clock time does not get updated. However, evidently it did really communicate with the time server on 192.59.196.66, because the value in the response 071218072010.20 does correspond to the time on the time server, albeit in the somewhat bizarre format MMDDHHMMYYYY.SS.

I am running a script with nohup and this generates a lot of logs.
In order to view the log I use tail -f nohup.out
The problem is that the info supplied by this command is not always the latest//sometimes I need to use the command again order to view the latest info added to the nohup.out file.

I would appreciate help with how to extract the date and time from at command jobs. From what I can tell, the date and time is embedded in the file name (/var/spool/atjobs).I'd be using this information in a (bash) shell script.

I use the time command to measure the wall-clock time of a GPU implementation of an algorithm. When I time the CPU execution of the algorithm time returns a negligible sys time. However, when I time the GPU execution time returns a sys time that is around 20-30% of the total time. If that time was comparable with the negligible sys time of the CPU I would achieve a speedup of a few times higher.
I suspect that the increased sys time is because of the GPU usage, which, I assume, takes some time for the OS because of the drivers etc. I am not sure though, and it is important to figure this out because it will improve my results a lot if I can ignore the sys time and use just the user time for speedup calculations. Also, is there a way to see, in detail, what is the sys running and takes so much time. I am thinking that I might be able to see if it is the driver indeed that causes this delay.

I was reading that if I want to do a one time scheduled command, I should use at, which I've never done, as opposed to cron, which i'm kinda familiar with. But what I want to do is reboot my server at 3am tomorrow and force it to check the file systems with a shutdown -rF. For this do I even need to use "at" or could I just say shutdown -rF 3:00.Will that also know that I mean 3am tomorrow and not say in 3 minutes from now or 3pm?

It is possible to not only have the progress of the shredding, but the time elapsed/remained/whatever as well? It would be great to be able to see the time elapsed/time remaining along with the percentage complete.
