View 1 Replies View RelatedThis obnoxious bar has just appeared in Smplayer at the top of the screen. It stays there even when I go full screen. Now full screen isn't full screen and there are black edges on both sides of the screen. I have not be able to figure out how to hide it. I do not need or want this onscreen display. How can I configure Smplayer to make this go away? How can I get my 16:9 full screen aspect ratio back? I have done nothing to mplayer or smplayer as far as editing any or changing any configuration files. I tried several videos and it displays on all of them. It was not there last time I used Smplayer.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble with a bash script. Does anyone know why this doesn't work?
Code:
nautilus ./ &
wait $!
I'm writing a script which will extract a series of .rar files, present the extracted files to the user in nautilus so they may modify them, then when the user closes nautilus, the modified files are packed back into the archive.
I am running a command pretty similar to the one below:
Code:
I need to capture the exit status of that part of the command.
What I am trying to do is set a variable that can be modified within my_job.sh, and used to exit.
However, no matter what I set "status" to in my_job.sh, it exits with "0".
What can I do differently?
How exactly can I use the exit status of a command in an if statement ?
Something like this:
Code:
I'm new to scripting and I have a trouble with if statement syntax. The code is: Code: #there is a diff command here, and it does what i want but#i wanna see 1 if the exit value of diff is 0, and otherwise i wanna see 0.#the problem is here: (syntax error near unexpected token "then")
if["$?"==0];
then
echo 1

Is there a way to count the number of errors- an exit variable $? from one function?
The output from the exit variable (either erroneous or correct (1) or (0)) is it possible to add the erroneous one ups?
Is there a script to do this? I have shotwell and want to find files that are going to cause problems with automatic sorting.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have not been able to write bash to use a PID file to ensure no other instance of the same script is running! All three methods I can think of to see if the PID in the PID file is another instance of the script make the script exit with a return code of 1 but the same commands run at the command prompt work as expected.
The first attempt was:

The first attempted workaround was:

The second attempted workaround (with debug to make the following command prompt copy and paste meaningful) was:

I have made a simple bash script through which i can add, del, edit user from certain file using different CASE variables. like
case
1. adduser
2. del user
3. edit user
Now i want to add a exit CASE like
1. adduser
2. del user
3. edit user
4. exit
Now i want to make a script such a way that, if user input is 4 then only script quit. I used with exit function also but it didn't work. if user press ENTER or other keys then also it quit the program.
I am trying to get bash script using zentity to exit if the user presses the cancel or close buttons.The exit codes are working fine; they read 1 or 0 depending on the status but it always assumes 0. This is the portion of the script: PHP Code:

result=$(zenity --height=30 --width=300 --list --checklist --title='Selection'--column=Boxes --column=Selections --column="Options"

I have some screen questions. First, can you give screens names (such as whatever app you're screening), and second, how do you exit from a screen without closing the app (ie exit screen back to the command prompt, do your thing, then screen -r it)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded my graphics card from a Geforce 7600GS to a Gefore 560Ti. And while most things are normal, during boot up my screen isn't "full screen" until X is started, after which everything else is fine.

From what I understand, this is because the framebuffer is using the wrong resolution, but the maximum resolution that hwinfo --framebuffer returns is 1280x1024 (which I am already using "0x031a".) (My monitors is natively 1920x1080) Is it possible to do something about this? If not increase resolution than at least stretch the screen to full screen?

OpenSuse 11.3 with nVidia drivers.I have the screen working fine though it only runs in 1600x1200@75 using the nVidia driver (GTX260 card).When I play a game in full screen mode all seems OK but when I exit the game then I just get the mouse pointer on a black screen.There must be something present since the cursor changes as I move it, normal pointer -> hand over a link etc. It's just that black on black isn't very readable.
