What is the command for "Open a terminal window and run application in this terminal
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a problem that I can't seem to figure out. I can easily create a .sh file that will execute a command in Terminal, but as soon as it executes the terminal disappears. How do I get it to stay? My idea is to have the keyboard shortcut "ctrl+alt+del" open a .sh file with the contents "ps ax". Then it would be just like having a task manager; the terminal would open with "ps ax" already executed, and all I would have to do is kill the process number.
View 5 Replies View Relatedjust bought two new monitors , having major problems installing them,ubuntu 10.04 didnt recognize them at all running at 800x600 they should run at 1920x1080.
i have found various web pages explaining how to adjust the resolution using terminal . the problem i am having that nearly every command i put in commes back with command not found , i thought i needed to be signed in asroot so did this but still the same problem .
As soon as I launch terminal I get the following:
[...]: command not found
[...]: command not found
And it then goes to a $~ prompt as usual. How do I make it so the two commands it is trying to launch don't run upon launching terminal?
I know my way around MS Windows much better, but I just don't feel right trying to program something for Android on a Microsoft operating system. I am interested in Android programming so I followed the instructions on [URL] to install the environment on my computer...
I just installed the JDK, SDK, Eclipse successfully (or I assume):
* When I get to Step 4 where I'm supposed to run 'android' it will not run. I get the error message "android: command not found" (I am definitely in the right directory).
** When I double-click it in nautilus, it opens up in gedit. I can set the permissions in nautilus (through the properties - Allow executing file as a program) and get it to work,
My system:
Intel i7
Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat
android-sdk-linux-x86
eclipse 3.6.2
In Xubuntu 9.04 I could right click in any directory folder and have the option of opening a terminal window "there". So the terminal command line would open preloaded to that directory. I know, I'm lazy, but it sure made life (and command line work) easier. But it's not available in my new install of Ubuntu 10.04. Now, I know that my gui environment has changed from xfce to gnome, but I would have expected MORE features, not less.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using CentOS5.5 & everytime it is showing command not found. If I export the path as below it will be working fine until a reboot. Again same error i.e command not found if I open new terminal. Every time I am exporting as below:
#export PATH=/sbin/:$PATH
#export PATH=/usr/sbin/:$PATH
#export PATH=/usr/bin/:$PATH
#export PATH=/bin/:$PATH
How can I set these permanently as that the paths should automatically be exported for everyone user whenever the system boots. And command completion also should happen for eg. #fdi (press tab), then it should show available options such as fdisk, etc.
I want to open another terminal from typing a command to one terminal.
can anyone tell me a command for this..
I am trying to use a command to open a partition or disc from the top like open up external drive, and not have to be externaldrive/videos or whatever. The reason being is to use in cairo dock, I have tried to drag n drop like i am able to with regular folders, but no good. I seen the option to run a command, and figured I would try it that way.
I have the partitions and discs i want to access mounted. they are:
External Drive (/dev/sdc1)
Storage (/dev/sdb1)
Windows (/dev/sda2)
I tried to open them in terminal, /media/storage: no such file or directory;
/dev/sdc1: Permission denied;
open /media/storage or /dev/sdc1
Couldn't get a file descriptor referring to the console;
se7en@PC:~$ nautilus /media/storage or nautilus /dev/sdc1 .....
Along with a pop-up saying 'the location is not a folder'.
I am a linux newbie, and recently started shell programming. whenever I use 'let' command it gives me an error 'command not found'. I am using ubuntu 9.10 with bash.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have the following rsync command for making some backups:
Code:
rsync -r --progress --delete -H --numeric-ids -a --exclude=.gvfs /source /media/Backup
If I paste that in my Terminal, it will perform a backup of all the files and show me what's going on in the Terminal window. But how can I make that into a launcher? I have made a launcher on my desktop with that code in its Properties, but double-clicking it starts the rsync process (I can see HDD activity) but a Terminal window won't open.
When I try:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gdm2setup/gdm2setup
Code:
sudo apt-get update

On the update I have error in terminal:
Code:
W: Failed to fetch [URL] 404 Not Found

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
Are there a command to open up a new tab in gnome terminal(Ctrl+T outcome). I need it to use with in bash script.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just switch to fedora from windows recently. And I love the terminal of fedora alot. The problem is when I run some command on the terminal, I need to wait for that command to finish before executing another command. This is very inconvinient, say If I open eclipse using the terminal, this eclipse program will hog to the terminal until I closed it. So if I want to use terminal again I have to open another one.Hence the question is: Is there any way open multi processes(command) using only one terminal?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm having Ubuntu Kramic Koala and i want to create a custom application launcher on the panel so when it is clicked it should open a terminal window and run the following command and then show the output for 5 secs and then closes the terminal... how can i do this?
Code:
cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode && sleep 5
the above command is what i want to be executed at time of running the custom application launcher. if i paste the command in a terminal, it will show the output for 5 secs and then terminates... that's almost what i want. what i exactly want is that, i want it to work like when i click on the shortcut launcher, it should open a terminal and then exectues that command, show the output for 5 sec, pause, and then exits the teriminal.
Every time I boot up ubuntu I usually open 3 terminal windows and ssh into the same server. I would like to either click a shortcut, or run a single terminal command that will do the equivalent.
I came across the "gnome-terminal" command, but I was unable to get it to trigger an ssh command.
Ideally I would like to have a script that I pass in the number of windows I want to open and the server I would like to ssh into for each window.
When I open a terminal and start the 'top' command to view the running processes, in the summary view I get 4 users. I guess that in addition to my account the root runs in the background but who are the other 2??

I have a guy in my office who was using an old version of ubuntu and he tried upgrading to 10 but now he's getting grub error 17. I Google this and everyone suggests reinstalling grub starting with opening a shell and typing 'sudo grub'.
However, I get 'command not found' in response to that. I've tried looking for the location of grub so I could try 'sudo /sbin/grub' and such, but I don't see it anywhere.
Also, I'm using a version 9.10 Live CD at the moment because I can't find out how to disable the drmraid option on the version 10 CD (necessary to detect the hard drives which, although they are on a raid controller are not configured as an array but separate drives).
For awhile I have had this issue with the command line and every time I try to complete any command that requires GTK graphics, It always returns the error "Error: cannot open display: 0:" The "EXPORT display" command that I normally use to fix this issue is not working. The only issue that I can think might be the cause for this could be my upgrade to natty (which was in fact a clean installation), or when I edited plymouth so that the startup and shutdown animations would match my laptop's native resolution (by the way I would also appreciate it if I could do the same with the startup animation, only the shutdown really works). If anybody know how I could resolve this issue I would greatly appreciate it. Oh and for specifics on my machine, I am using an ASUS N82 with an NVIDIA GEFORCE GT335M graphics card, running Ubuntu 11.04.
