May 18, 2010I'm trying to get a program to automatically reload if I accidentally close it. This is a remote access program, so it has to be relaunched without me doing anything to help it along if it crashes or I accidentally close it. I noticed that someone came up with a way to solve this back in 2007 [URL].. but the files don't appear to exist any more for it to work. how I might get a program to automatically reload on exit?

May 15, 2010So, this may have something to do specifically with conky, but I don't understand how sometimes when I run 'conky' from the terminal and then once it loads I close the terminal, it kills conky. But other times, I do the same thing, wait for it to load, and it just keeps running! In both cases, I don't get a "user@computer~:$" prompt back after running 'conky' either. That happens sometimes with other things like gedit too..

Ubuntu :: Program Is Running But Can't See It
Nov 4, 2010I installed an RPG platform (Fantasy Grounds) on my system via Win7. Once installed, and known to be working, I logged off Win and back to Ubuntu and ran the program via Wine. Once it starts, I hear my PC rev up, see the system monitor crank up the CPU and see that "Fantasy Grounds" is running and using about 40% of my CPU usage... but I don't see it. There is no GUI, no nothing. I can end process and the CPU drops down to normal. Anyone have any idea as to why a program would be running, but I have no visible evidence that it is?

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: 9.10 - How To Know If Cron Running Program
Mar 25, 2010I seem to be having a problem with cron. I have a python program that checks a specific directory for pending email scripts written in python.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/python
import os
emaildir = os.environ['HOME']+"/email/"
filelist = os.listdir(emaildir)
for pyfile in filelist:
if pyfile.find(".py") > -1:
execfile(emaildir+pyfile)
This code has been tested and works fine. The problem is that I need cron to run this code every 5 minutes but i can't tell if it is running: Here is my cron code:
5 * * * * /home/username/custom/CheckEmail.py >>/home/username/custom/email.log 2>&1
I activated the log (I think) but all i get is /var/log/cron.log and that only logs when I activate/deactivate or edit the cron file. is there anything else i need to set for this to work? I am running Ubuntu 9.10.

Ubuntu :: Running A Program After Boot?
Aug 9, 2011I am using a small ubuntu command-line only distro (Ubuntu Mini Remix) to run off of a LiveCD or USB stick. I need it to run a program as root as soon as it is finished booting, automatically. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make it run my program. I have tried putting a script into rc2.d (when I type runlevel at the command line, it tells me it is level 2) that simply contained:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
qct
(qct is the name of my program)
I did the chmod u+x on the script. It does not run my program, though. I have no idea if it was a naming issue or not. I do not understand the naming scheme.When it boots, and doesn't run my program, I can type sudo qct at the command prompt and it runs fine.

Ubuntu :: Set Terminal To Completely Hide Itself While It's Running A Program?
Jan 19, 2009It really bothers me that when I start a program through the terminal it takes up space with the terminal that's tied up with the program, and the program itself. I know how to keep it from tying up the terminal, but when it devotes the terminal, I like that it gives output if the program crashes. Is there a way I can set a terminal to completely hide itself (off the desktop and the taskbar) while it's running a program, then reappear once the program is closed?
