As the thread states, I wonder why my RAM usage is about 56% without any application running. It turns to 58% while opening Firefox (with only one Tab/Page opened) and typing this post. Is there something wrong?
I'd like to know if there is a script that can check and see if an application has been closed (I don't know a great deal about bash programming).I'm running an organ programme with this script.
/usr/bin/jackd -r -t5000 -dalsa -dhw:0 -r44100 -p1024 -n2 -P & java -jar /home/user/jOrgan/jorgan.jar & jack-rack -s space space &
We are running IPmonitor to monitor the disk usage on our Linux servers. It does not seem to coincide with what is reported when running df -h. For example on a Red Hat 5.3 server - our IPmonitor shows that 85% is used on the /usr partition, however when I do a df -h on the server it shows that 91% is used. Why there would be a discrepancy? IPmonitor uses SNMP.
I have two computers running Ubuntu. I want to run the copy of Firefox that is on the remote machine. i connect to the remote in the usual way, "ssh -X fermi", which brings up a console on the remote machine, fermi. When I type "firefox", however, it starts the copy of firefox that is on the local machine. On the remote machine, "ps aux|grep firefox" confirms that firefox is not running there. Is there a way to force execution of the remote copy?Or, can I start a local copy of firefox using the remote bookmarks, preferences, etc?
Running the Lynx and I have set up Evolution to download my Gmail e-mails but now I have a question.
When Evolution is running I get the notifications when e-mail come in and the little envelope at the top becomes "lit" to indicate I have new mail. What I want to know is how can I get notified without having the application "open", still having the notifications etc. but without having the application window open (like when you "close" Rhythmbox but it is still running at the top even though the windows is closed)?

I want to launch qiv upon startup to show a series of photos in slideshow fashion (this will be the sole purpose of this particular laptop). I tried adding the command via System->Preferences->Startup Applications but this does not produce the desired result. In fact, the slide show doesn't even start.
I need to take a screen capture while an application is running. The application is a touch screen calibration utility and alt-Prnt Scrn does not work when the calibration utility is active. Is there another way for me to capture the screen while the utility is active?

After a series of unrelated problems with my mouse (that had nothing to do with suse) I opened a process but I don't know what is it. It looks like a series of micro-post-its in the bottom of my desktop:Also, I checked the option to start a new session every time I start KDE, but this keeps appearing.

I have come across an issue. We have an application for the biotechnology. The application is very heavy so we are trying to run it on cluster. We have four Dell workstation 7500. Each is having 32 GB RAM. But I am not getting the exact method of configuring cluster and node. I have tried Conga (Luci, Ricci). My questions are:1) Is it possible that our application can run on cluster ?2) If its possible then how shall i configure it?
I frequently access my home computer throughout the day in two ways: either locally, or remotely using nxserver/nxclient. As one user, I have two concurrent X-windows sessions running, possibly with different applications running in each. Is it possible to move a running application from one session to the other? That is, I want all the active windows related to the app to disappear from one desktop,

Any other web server request should go to the apache.
I tried adding the following to /etc/ufw/before.rules

I was trying to have a go at installing MAC on my dell alongside Ub and W7. I copied the grub2 to the first part of my sda5 so as to put the mac loader in MBR.I have since repaired grub2 back to MBR.But now my beloved Ubuntu starts up then continuosly increases RAM usage till 90% then SWAP 90% even when no application is running!!
I need to run an application on a virtual desktop (let say desktop #2) and control it via another app running on the root desktop (desktop #1). That would include screen capture and mouse movements. So basically I capture the application window from desktop #2, scrape it and then click on buttons via my app on desktop #1. Anyway you got the idea.Now my big question is: is that doable ? and if so what's the best language to do it ?

I'm running ubuntu 10.10 (with the macbunu theme if it matters). From there, I'm running an application on a solaris system and forwarding the X11 display back to my ubuntu/gnome display with the follow command "ssh -X <solaris-host>". Everything seems to display correctly so far except for what I would describe as the alert boxes. The problem is they are invisible. I know it's there because I have mouse pointer jumping turned on and the mouse jumps to the default button and if I click on it the alert box flashes and but disappears. The disappearing is normal due to the button press. So it appears the alert box is present but invisible until I click a button but disappears immediately because of the button press.
I have a desktop PC that I built back when I was a teenager, running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and nothing else. I love it, but for one thing: the dang CPU usage hits at least 99% whenever any application besides Xorg is open and running. This doesn't affect performance too much, but if Windows XP Home Edition never gets close to 100% usage, then I figure there's something going on.
I am using openSUSE 11.2, and i want to use configure a scanner app to install drivers for my scanner but it requires root previlages to do so.So Please Can Anyone tell me how can i run configure a scanner as root from the kick off application launcher.
I need to backup my active production servers (yeah it's too late now) with image cloning application that were running RHEL3-5. The problem is I need to run it remotely from my office. Most of the software I found either need to use bootable cd or need to unmount my partitions which is I wasn't allowed to since it's a production servers. I also tried dd but it consume too much time, sector by sector cloning and empty disk space also included so the file created also big in size.
I am writing a script that is designed to verify an application is running. The if...else statement in question is the following:
Code: # Check if <application> is running. ps -ef |grep <application> > /dev/null RC=$? echo $RC
[Code]....
I have started testing by disabling the application in question, and then running the script. The problem that I am seeing is that even though the application is not running, I am getting an output code of 0 due to the successful running of the ps command. What syntax change(s) do I need to make in order to accurately determine when the application is not running?
