Ubuntu :: How To Get Wireless Manager To Function Inside FVWM
Jun 29, 2010
I have a fresh desktop install ubuntu 10.04 which then I added the fvwm-crystal package (and dependencies). I logout of gnome, and into fvwm. When I do so, I lose my wireless connection that was started when I was in gnome. Is there a way to get a wireless manager to function inside fvwm (if I add it to the auto-start in my fvwm2rc?). What app can I use? I tried and failed miserably using the command line iwconifg/iwlist tools.

I need to shift the positional parameters of a script inside a function, but any call to "shift 1" inside a function shifts only the parameters of that function. Is there some way of accomplishing that? I tried another approach using an alias. The problem is that I have to take the result of the alias. So I call in my script:
Code:
var=$(shiftalias)
At first time, it works correctly, but after that it does not shift the parameters anymore.

The code:
Quote:
Problem: I need a method to maintain the $i variable. In fact, actually, this variable get lost when executed. I think that an escape can preserve this variable and permit its execution inside the function, but I've no idea about.

The first call to "somefunction" works as expected. The function prints "endfunction" and a process in background sleeps 30 seconds. In the second call I thought it should work in the same way, but the script sleeps 30 seconds before it prints "endfunction".Does someone know the reason of this behavior? Is there another way to do a command substitution of a function that has a background process without have to waiting for that process?

Does declaring variable inside a function give an extra overhead on an application? Would it be better to declare the variable globally and just reuse it? Example
Code:
#include <blah>
char mybuffer[2048];
int main()
[code]....
The only difference is the declaration of my variable. Since myfunction() will be called many times will it add an additional overhead if it will create mybuffer[2048] over and over?

I'm using Ubuntu desktop 10.10 on an Hp Pavilion dv2700 laptop. Most of the time I have had no issues, however on two separate occasions the wifi and bluetooth have been disabled, the switch on the front of the computer has no effect.the enable wireless function is grayed out, so I was not able to enable it. The first time it happened, (I didn't have an Ethernet cord at the time), I booted into windows Vista, thinking I could connect to the internet and find an answer. Low and behold I had the same problem in windows, however I was able to enable the wifi and blue tooth in windows. Now, rebooting into Ubuntu, the problem was resolved. The second time around the same thing happened, and I booted into Windows to fix the problem. I have done a search for known bugs on this issue, but none seem to relate to my exact problem. Is there a way to enable the wifi when it is grayed out? like in windows?Like I said this has only happened twice, but I had to boot into windows to fix the problem. I really want to delete windows all together, but if I have to keep it around awhile to fix this issue I guess I will.

I already have a pretty comfy setup, with Openbox over LXDE, but I'm curious about something: Even though I started out with LXDE, I removed the lxpanel and replaced it with Tint2, then I removed the LXDE right-click menu and replaced it with the Openbox menu. Finally, I replaced PCmanfm with Thunar, and run my wallpaper on Nitrogen. In fact, the only thing that says "LXDE" anymore is the logout menu, and if I could replace that with something sleeker that fit my theme, i would.
Question: Would it have made more sense to simply not install LXDE at all? I've heard of people who say they just run Openbox. Do they mean they have to run it on top of something like LXDE, or do they just have Openbox and nothing else? It sounds like that's what I could have done here and had virtually the same thing. Am I right?
Also, I've heard a lot about FVWM, and I'm curious as to whether it's that much better than what I have now. Is there a way to "try it out?" I don't want to replace a thing that I have here now, at least until I decided I liked FVWM better (which I don't know I will). There's very little i don't like about Openbox (absence of a volume control icon in the taskbar, for one), but I'm always into tinkering, and I like the idea of switching themes. By that I mean switching wallpaper, icon themes, window themes, conky configs, everything, all with a keystroke. I've done it with scripts in the past, but that's "doing it the hard way," and I've been on the hunt for a desktop manager that has this feature.

I would like to know if there is a way to replicate the contents of the GNOME Applications menu in FVWM (Without running GNOME), because it was very convenient to have it and I don't know the command-line names of some of the programs I need.Especially now I would really like to have it soon because I got VirtualBox and I don't know of any other way to start it other than that menu.

I want to install Linux on my laptop. I started with Arch but 4 hours later, I'll take anything so now I'm trying Ubuntu.It appears that the keyboard function button that corresponds to my wireless does not work, and perhaps is windows dependent?Every time I try to interact with wlan0, I get the error "Operation not possible due to RF-kill". And as I've looked around online, it has been suggested in other forums that the only way to resolve this is to reinstall windows and dual boot, so the FN key will work.
I think this is ridiculous. There must be a way to persuade the RF-kill to be turned off again, shouldn't there?I don't have a recover disk for this laptop and I don't want to go through the trouble of requested one from acer. I reformatted the whole disk while attempted to install arch.

I put together a step-by-step guide of how I installed openSUSE 11.1 on my ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005HA Netbook. I planned on going back and re-installing using my own guide to check for mistakes, etc. but I never seem to get around to it, so I'll just post what I have and let you guys comment if you run into issues. Side notes: This guide assumes you want to wipe out Windows XP and run only openSUSE. Sorry, I'm a Gates hater.
I still haven't figured out how to configure the function keys support for volume controls and wireless. I'm hoping the "eeepc kernel module" mentioned by malcolmlewis here: Suse on my Asus 1005HA - openSUSE Forums will do the trick.

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?

I am doing some Linux kernel programming for my research project. I need to record the timestamp (by using cpuid and rdtsc) when an interrupt handler (top half) is first invoked. Due to the time critical nature of the problem itself, I have to do the timestamping inside the interrupt handler itself (the first operation when the handler is called). However, I understand that tasks that are not so time critical should be deferred to a tasklet function (bottom half) for processing because other interrupts are disabled in a (top-half) interrupt handler. I am currently out of idea on how I can pass the timestamp information that I have obtained in the interrupt handler to the corresponding tasklet function.

I'm currently using OpenSuse 11.1 web server. This is bad since 11.1 is no longer supported. the reason why I am using it is because Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() was no longer being used. (so I was told)
That being said, is there a way to get Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() to function on the newer versions of OpenSuSE?

the function terminates if no key is pressed for 10 consecutive seconds. I tried using the -t option as suggested in some forums, but my version of showkey doesn't have the option of changing the timeout. The options I get are:
-h --helpdisplay this help text
-a --asciidisplay the decimal/octal/hex values of the keys
-s --scancodesdisplay only the raw scan-codes
-k --keycodesdisplay only the interpreted keycodes (default).
Is it possible to write a script to use this function and still keep the function active until an interrupt is recieved?

I use Opensuse 11 with fvwm. How can I get conky start automatically when I start fvwm?
I setup the conky under fvwm session for my Opensuse 11 but it won't start automatically. I am wondering how to write some kind of scripts to force it to start automatically and with a delay about 10 seconds after fvwm starts.
