Ubuntu :: Text-based Web Browsers To Login To Site?
Jun 15, 2010
Im trying to find a text-based browser that would allow me to send my user and pass to a site so it would auto-login. The thing is, Im trying to grab text from a site that requires authentication.I have looked at lynx, but I have problems connecting to https (apparently, the site uses an invalid cert).
I have a question regarding to the Graphical Splash Screen. Is their a way to show the text based startup on booting your OS? So. I don't the OpenSuse Background with the loading line. But i want the half transparent black background if possible or just the black background with all the loading texts. The black and white screen.
I am using various browsers on opensuse 11.0 ==>Opera ==>Firefox ==>Seamonkey ==>Konqueror
I find that the gecko based brwosers firefox and seamonkey are not working, page loading is extremely slow/not working at all sometimes. On the other hand Opera and Konqueror are working fine. The gecko browsers are loading pages well only when I right click on web pages and use "open with browser menu" from either konqueror or opera.
did a search and I can't believe I seem to be only person reporting this. It's been a bug since I did a fresh install of 10.04 UNR, but it's only gotten to the tipping point where I actually HAVE to do something about it today. I finally cracked.As you can see in the screen shot attached the one line text box (ie, search bars mostly, but the thread title in this case) stretches way beyond length it is supposed to. For the first screen shot I have "zoomed out" to give a better idea of the full effect, the second screen is what I see during normal browsing.If anyone could help me fix this error it would be greatly appreciated. I've tried both Firefox and Chrome (and Chromium) and the same issue occours. The screen shot is taken from Chrome 5.0.375.70
15 this is a sentence containing various words and spaces 34 this is a another sentence containing various words and spaces
cat file2.txt
2 this is sentence1file2 6 this is sentence2file2 54 this is sentence3file2
I would like to join these 2 files. The result should look as follows :
cat joinedfile.txt
2 this is sentence1file2 6 this is sentence2file2 15 this is a sentence containing various words and spaces 34 this is a another sentence containing various words and spaces 54 this is sentence3file2
==> so the joined file must be sorted on the first number. Any ideas how this can be achieved ?
I'm working on building my own turn-key variant of Ubuntu Server. I'm trying to find out what the non-graphical installer is called so I can use it in my install DVD After a fair amount of searching,I have come up empty-handed. I know the graphical installer is called ubiquity and that works great if you have a live desktop environment.
Been searching around for a few days. So far I have found three previous topics on this and all of them are useless/out of date. I'm trying to install [URL]... I've tried making it from the binary on the site and I get a bunch of errors when I try to "make" it. I've attached the output from make. Anyone know how to get this to work? I found a tutorial that said you had to find the .module files and remove all the "-e"s but I cannot find any .module files.
After the last update every time when I try to see my mails from gmail, with the use of any app like plasmoid-gmail or kmail notifier, appears a window with this title. "You are about to log in to the site "mail.google.com" with the username "********", but the website does not require authentication. This may be an attempt to trick you. Is "mail.google.com" the site you want to visit?"
I will have to code this. However I am lacking of time since I have too much to do. make a short code bash/dash to prompt the country with Zenity, then, get the PLS or m3u url and prompt with another zenity which radio to play. http://www.listenlive.eu/index.html
I'm looking for software which will allow me to record a screen-cast of a terminal based application, recording keystrokes, timing of keystrokes, and audio. I see a couple of advantages to this approach over video capture: Display independence: the viewer can display text in any resolution/style they want, not limited to the resolution of the recorded video. Ability to copy and paste text from the screencast. DSABE? (Does Such A Beast Exist?)
I have a ubuntu server PC with no xwindows just text command-line. Usually I use xlock but this PC has no graphics. How do I lock/unlock the PC while I'm away from it? I don't necessarily need a screen saver just a way to secure the terminal while I'm away without logging off.
I'd like to learn more about the VoIP protocol SIP. I read that Wireshark can be configured to filter stuff so that only SIP packets are shown, but the SIP server runs on a server with no GUI. Does someone know of a text-based packet sniffer that supports SIP?

Just wondering if anyone knew of a really good text based terminal browser to use when I am not running X. I can use Links and do not have too much trouble navigating, but I have not been able to set the screen to view the entire page (I have to move off screen to read the whole page.) So, if anyone knows an easier text browser that is a little easier to set the screen options with code...
I am trying to set up a web based FTP site on my home server, I got ftp up and running and I can log into it using an ftp client but I want to set it up so I can get to it from the web. I put the directory in the www/html folder but that does not seem to help it
If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great. I also need to let anonymous users get access to it.
How do you toggle between the button and text-based location bar in Nautilus in Lucid. I can only get Nautilus to show the directory path as buttons and not as as text based in the form of /home/Desktop.Previously there was a button to toggle between them.
There's probably not too many Linux users how have their desktop Linux distros set to be console only as opposed to using an X server or a GUI. There's plenty of reasons to take this route and many ways to go about it, and I'll attempt to show you a (mostly) unbiased view on this choice, especially centered around the way I do it. Here's my setup: Dell Inspiron 1545, Core 2 Duo, 4 GB RAM. I have Windows XP, Ubuntu 8.04, and my main OS: Debian Squeeze.
UBUNTU USERS!!!
Debian Squeeze is probably the best option for a Ubuntu convert. Making Ubuntu console based is kinda hard and not recommended by me because it's such a large OS, and living in a text only computer is generally a minimalist idea, so having such a bulky base is both memory intensive and kinda gross. Debian uses apt-get, so people who grew up in a Ubuntu environment should feel at home with the sudo commands and such........
I like to start a web site with login page similar to Facebook, Skype or QQ. Is there a pool of php programs that I can download, then change it for my own purpose?Any body doing this? I would start one if none more knowledgable to do it. Do not think XOOPs etc will fit my needs considering later development of my site idea.
I am trying to load up the NVidia driver in Fedora 15 and am stuck. After boot up the graphical login screen comes up fine but when I go to log in I get an error message and it asks me to try to login again. I need to be able to get into text mode so I can edit some files but I do not know how to do this other that starting in multi-uder mode by editing /etc/inittab (or in FC15, editing some links in /etc/systemd/system/). Is there a way to get to text mode from the graphical loginscreen or do I need to get a rescue disk and startup in rescue mode to change files?
i've been using some subliminal software on windows for a while now and have found it to be really good. It basically just flashes up a message on screen over the top of whatever is going on at that time but the message is only there for about 30 milli seconds
The message is not there long enough for your conscious mind to read it but the theory is that your subconscious mind will read it.It actually works really well. THe problem is that they dont package a linux version although they do have an OSX version, i'd really like this on ubuntu.
Tried it in wine and it installs but nothing happens after that. Alternatively perhaps somebody can tell me how you could get a message to flash up on screen based on a list of messages in a text file?
I want to create a text based adventure game that interfaces over gmail. I'm in the process of writing a java program that will take text input, and return text output. But before I can do that, I need to find a way to use something like nail, mailx, or if absolutely necessary evolution, to import emails from gmail and pipe them into this java program. I want to do all of this independent of a GUI, so any solutions that use mailx or nail.
i use uxrvt ( for those who dont know, its terminal emulator based on xterm).i know its easy to copy/paste stuff from terminal to itself is a trivial thing. it can be done by mouse left click to select and middle click to paste.but in my case i need to copy text from terminal to another application, viz on google chromium.
Does anyone other this know how (or know of a guide that details how) to create a text based start up theme for plymouth? I have some older hardware and I'd like to do something custom up there.
