View 1 Replies View Related1) Write a C program using the fork() system call that that generates the Fibonacci sequence in the child process. The number of the sequence will be provided in the command line. For example, if 5 is provided, the first five numbers in the Fibonacci sequence will be output by the child process. Because the parent and child processes have their own copies of the data, it will be necessary for the child to output the sequence. Have the parent invoke the wait() call to wait for the child process to complete before exiting the program. Perform necessary error checking to ensure that a non-negative number is passed on the command line.
2) Repeat the preceding exercise, this time using the CreateProcess () in the Win32 API. In this instance, you will need to specify a separate program to be invoked from CreateProcess(). It is this separate program that will run as a child process outputting the Fibonacci sequence. Perform necessary error checking to ensure that a non-negative number is passed on the command line.i have done with Fibonacci sequence .but i dont know how to include tht fork() function and win32 api .any one can help to finish?

I know a couple of small ones for windows systems (nosee, dscrypt) but i wonder if there is any i could use on both linux and windows OS. the idea is to be able to carry it on USB key and the programme (or probably there will have to be 2 versions of it) would run either on windows or linux os and i could decrypt and encrypt the file if i needed to. no matter on what system i plug the USB key to.

Code: #include<stdio.h>
main()

printf("%d",_res);

I discovered that if you install directFB (a framebuffer display library magic thing) you can run "links -g" which makes an attempt to be graphical, but it's still not quite the same as a normal browser... I was wondering if there was any way to run an X server for a single programme, or an equivalent solution. Essentially, what I'd like to be able to do is run, say, "startx firefox [URL] and for an X server to be created solely to run my firefox instance. Obviously, the current behaviour (at least, in Ubuntu, as I haven't installed X on Gentoo) is to bring up a graphical login screen, allowing me to start an entirely new X session. Is there a way to do this, or is it just "not how X works"?

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen I enable UFW Configuration, in a programme called Firewall Configuration, runs along with the System. Now, I configured it such that it can run along with the Session. Now, Ubuntu is already secure. So, is there any need for additional Firewall like this? (ufw is already present in Ubuntu, and this only Configures it). And, is it required to have it enabled always for keeping the Firefox running? (Because It may consume System Resources). Or, is there any other firewall that consumes less System resources or runs at the Background?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have installed Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat onto a USB stick. Booting up is fun but it does come up with a load of text and a blue menu screen that hangs around for 5 seconds and then loads up ok.
My challenge is to somehow customise the boot up process. For one I'd like to customise the options that are presented on the initial blue menu boot up screen and possibly to not show the back ground text that presents during the start up process.
I've googles about a bit and am aware that I need to be using startupmanager as the GUI customisation tool of choice. The trouble is that after installation startupmanager doesn't launch.
This is what I've done so far:
1. gone to [URL] and downloaded the startupmanager (1.9.13-5) version of the package.
2. gone to [URL] and downloaded the menu 2.1.44ubuntu1 as looking at the the pre-requisites for startupmanager this was the only one not already installed.
3. from a terminal window executed sudo dpkg -i <the previously downloaded startupmanager package>
4. from a terminal window executed sudo dpkg -i <the previously downloaded menu package>
5. Tried to launch it from the systemadministration menu. Nothing obvious happened.
6. Created a shortcut of the startupmanager shortcut on the desktop and viewed the properties.
7. opened up a terminal windows and launch command su-to-root -X -c /usr/sbin/startupmanager which was originall shown within the startupmanager properties of the shortcut.
From this last terminal command I get the output as follows:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ su-to-root -X -c /usr/sbin/startupmanager
Grub2 detected
Usplash not detected
Splashy not detected

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently recovered Unity after purging the Gnome3 PPA and running a dist upgrade again back to Unity. My problem now is that when I boot into Unity, all I get is the desktop, background and a cursor. I can click on and launch any apps that happen to be on the desktop, but I can't see the unity launch bar, or the action menu, or the top panel - which leads me to believe Unity isn't actually launching. The theory is further supported by the fact that if I launch Unity manually in a terminal ("unity") - it launches, after a brief loading period, and works perfectly. How can I make this happen automatically again?

After seeing previous posts somewhere it is given that matlab-desktop should be used. But I am not clear where to use it. How to create a desktop icon for matlab. It got solved by adding -desktop at the end of command.

So I would like to stop my scanner launching anything when switched on.
