Ubuntu :: Is It Possible To Write Script For Opening Multiple Programs?

Jan 27, 2010

I'm wondering if it's possible to write some sort of script so I can have an icon on the desktop which opens a combination of programs I use together frequently.Specifically, I would like to have an icon called "keyboard practice" which does the following:

1) Open QJackCtrl and "click" on Start;
2) Open the Hexter softsynth and make the Jack connections between it and my speakers;
3) Make the Jack MIDI connection between my MIDI keyboard and Hexter.

Programming :: How To Write Programs In Multiple Languages?

Aug 18, 2009

Well I have been interested in programming for a while, and just found out about Linux and Unix. I started out with Java, but now I know I bunch: Flash, C++, C and others. I was working on a mac so I made a few flash games then started to work on iPhone games. I was board one day and I found out about Unix and I thought that would be something else to try.So in an attempt to learn about Unix I have been reading different articles about it, and have heard of using different languages in one program. The article I was reading didn't give any examples, and it assumed the reader has programmed Unix before.

So how do you write programs in multiple languages, which languages would you use, and why would you want to do that?

Ubuntu :: Wine Not Opening Programs?

This is really irritating me, becuase if i got an error message i could try to figure out whats wrong, but when NOTHING AT ALL happens

Ubuntu Security :: Opening Privileged Programs From User Desktop?

Apr 13, 2010

How do you open a program, in this instance "Zenmap", from the desktop in a user account when it requires root privileges? Is there a way to be prompted for the password, the same way, for instance, you're prompted when mounting a new file system or making a change to the system? I tried entering 'sudo /usr/bin/zenmap' when creating the shortcut, however that didn't work.

Ubuntu :: Opening Many Programs And Placing Them In Specific Monitors / Workspaces?

Jun 16, 2011

I am fairly new to Ubuntu and was wondering if anybody knows of a way to open up a number of programs and placing them in specific spots programmatically. Basically, I'm trying to avoid having to open my IDE, multiple terminal windows, browsers, etc... and then having to place them all in the exact position I want when my machine boots up. Ideally, I could say:Program A, is placed on Monitor 1, workspace 1, at position 0, 0, with height and width 600 x 400. Program B, is placed on Monitor 2, workspace 2, at position 600, 500, with height and width 1000 x 600

OpenSUSE :: Wine Not Opening Some Windows Programs?

Jun 17, 2011

Some windows programs won't run after I have installed them with Wine. They either won't run or they make the screen go to a black painting screen (screen goes black and you can paint over it with your mouse to make the desktop reappear). I have tried changing the windows version and made no difference. I have even tried opening it in a virtual window and made no difference (Window opens then closes)

Ubuntu :: Opening File Manager Endlessly Creating In Programs Bar. Can't Stop It?

Mar 8, 2010

When I turn on my computer I am greeted by an unending stream of "Starting File Managers" appearing in the programs list. This cannot be stopped, though none of the file managers actually open. They just sit there filling up my programs bar and wasting my cpu slowing down computer. It also means I cant upon my own folders, or see what programs I have open.If I run terminal, type xkill and click on one of the buttons in the programs list, that kills them all, and I can see my programs again for a bit, until it fills up again. The panel disappears and appears again, with all the spawning messages gone and any other programs I have open remain there. Its just the randomly spawned "Starting File Managers" that don't come back.

My CPU fluctuates. Its around 60% to 90% load, when it should be idle, but is instead opening all these windows.When I view the processes the most CPU intensive (when I sort) is Gnome System Monitor at 6% and then Gnome panel at 5%,gconfd-2 is as around 2%, compiz.real, dbus-deamon hover around 1%. And everything else is generally at 0%.So somewhere, a hidden process is using about 70% of my CPU load. Which isn't shown in system-monitor. Maybe because its an admin process and I can only see simple user processes. I dunno.There is something else though. I have a process with no name appearing, its blank. And it keeps disappearing and re-appearing. So you can hardly select it hard enough to kill it. I managed to kill it once and it said error, process (large number, 10,000 or 100,000) does not exist. So can't be killed.When I do an xkill the console writes:

Code:
anthony@Anthony-Acer:~$ xkill
Select the window whose client you wish to kill with button 1....

Ubuntu :: Fire Fox Opening Multiple Windows

Feb 18, 2010

Im having a problem with firefox. I left firefox running overnight yesterday only to wake up to a totally unresponsive karmic. Everything was frozen and i couldn't get anything to run. I restarted the ubuntu and everything seemed to be ok until I tried to open firefox. Almost immediatly the first window opened it was followed by what looked like fifty more. It kept opening windows until ubuntu crashed. I restarted karmic again and did a couple of google searches using opera and found out that it might be a adware problem. I have thought of getting rid of my cookies but i do not know whether that will help.

Ubuntu :: Opening Multiple Applications With One Keyboard Shortcut?

Aug 21, 2010

I would like to open multiple applications with one keyboard shortcut but don't get it running. When I add (open "System" > "Preference" > "Keyboard Shortcuts"; clicked "Add" ) a new shortcut and enter many commands in the "Command" field e.g. "gnome-terminal & xeyes" only the first application is started. I also tried to set up a shell script that contains the application calls and then use "gnome-terminal -x "sh /path/to/the/script.sh" but then I get the error message "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal".

Programming :: Write Programs That Use Electronic Signatures In Java?

Jun 1, 2010

Do you know how to write programs that use electronic signatures in JAVA (although I am not pretentious about the language in any way).

When I say e-signatures I mean those USB smart cards(security tokens) that are capable of doing encryption by themselves and store securely the private key. I am particularly interested in how authentication works with a digital signature, how to sign data, and most importantly how to check that a digital certificate is valid. What do I need to store in the Database for authentication for example -- is it the serial or the Hash?

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Using The Microphone In Multiple Programs?

Apr 18, 2010

I use skype ALOT, and when skype is open and I'm in a call, no other program that uses a mic will function properly.

An mmo I play on-line has built in voIP, and the voIP only functions properly when skype is closed. (it does not work at all otherwise)

Just as a reference, if I try to use kRecord while skype is open it will give me an error saying that the sound card is busy, or something to that effect.

how should I go about sharing the mic between multiple programs?

Just want to mention i have 500 megs of ram. Any ideas? Are there logs dumped somewhere for this kind of thing? Synaptic package manager still runs using dpkg from the terminal.

Programming :: Write A .sh Script That Allows To Run Multiple Other

Jan 30, 2010

I'm trying to write a .sh script that allows me to run multiple other .sh scripts at once.

My problem occurs within a Variable:

I have set

S1 to S7 to be the name of the .sh

A="7"
B="S$A"
C="$S$A" <- and this is where my problem is

I want C to be the content of S7 till S1 but if I run this line it will of course look for the content of S and link it with the content of A.

How can I correct this?

Edit:

WHERE="/home/X/Y/"
SH=".sh";
A="7";
B="S$A";
C="$B";

OpenSUSE :: Update On 11.1 System Broke Multiple Programs?

Nov 6, 2010

I have 11.1 on a computer. I updated it yesterday. Now K3B, VLC, and XDVDShrink are all broken. Possibly other programs broken as well. VLC refuses to uninstall via Yast. These are high-priority programs for this computer. Multiple people use this computer for multimedia and there is not much to entertain ourselves with in our very cold climate. In other words, it is mandatory that K3B, VLC and XDVDShrink return to operational status.

Should I just upgrade to 11.3, try to fix the broken 11.1? I prefer using KDE3, not KDE4, but I can sacrifice.

General :: Multiple Monitors - Make Open Programs Appear In Taskbar ?

Aug 4, 2010

Normally when a program is open an entry is placed on the taskbar in order to easily find it, which is useful when a lot of programs are open. In Ubuntu 10.04, when I moved a program to the other monitor (I'm using 2 monitors) the taskbar entry also moves to the taskbar on that monitor.

Now I switched over to Ultimate Edition, which is Ubuntu 10.04 with a lot of stuff added to it. When I drag a program to the other monitor, the entry in the taskbar disappears, but it does not reappear in the taskbar of the other monitor. So now the only way for me to find a program on this monitor if its hidden behind other windows is to use alt-tab.
