Somehow we are at the new stage hal deprecated and its changes is not easy for newbies to follows. also changing sudoers is a dirty and not safe trick So: The need for zenity script with these feature:
@ Consolekit
@Logout
@shoutdown
@restart
@suspend
@my be cancel
is really being felt. So if someone how is able to change the old zentiy openbox script comes forward and do the job;
I upgraded to Slackware 13.37 following the instructions in UPGRADE.TXT and now Firefox, Thunderbird, Seamonkey and Google Chrome all fail to run. If I start them from the command line, I get:
Code:
/usr/lib/firefox-4.0.1/firefox-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__VARIANT
libgio appears to be there:
Code:
root@shannon:/home/tsgilvary# ls -l /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 May 21 19:51 /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0 -> libgio-2.0.so.0.2800.6
I'm also getting an error message logging into KDE that says "ConsoleKit could not be started. ConsoleKit returned an unknown error of 127" which may or may not be related.I have tried uninstalling and re-installing Firefox through slackpkg. I have also tried reinstalling the glib2 package, also through slackpkg. I ran slackpkg clean-system and removed anything I didn't install myself (lmms and openoffice remain). No joy.
when i start my pc i have an error: Consolekit session error, unknown return code 0 when i click Ok it then starts my session

Since doing an update (Kubuntu 10.04), this message appears when attempting to log in;
Quote:
Warning: cannot open ConsoleKit session: Unable to open session: the permission of the setuid helper is not correct.
After clicking ok on the above warning, the system logs in, but gives 2 error messages;
- removed sound devices
- KNetworkManager cannot start because the installation is misconfigured. System DBUS policy does not allow it to provide user settings. contact your system administrator or distribution. KNetworkManager will not start automatically in future.
My Fedora 12 box got that error after some updates on it.
I can login but it's prompting that error and everything will be a black space.
But still no good.
According to the log messages, the ConsoleKit session isn't initializing. I can't paste the logs here coz it's on another laptop.
I could think of just upgrading it to Fedora 13 but there's no way I can backup all of my files on it. Is it just safe to upgrade it?
I have upgraded suse from 11.3 to 11.4 as described here (command line) SDB:System upgrade - openSUSE.
When I rebooted computer I get message: "Loggining in myname Warning: Cannot open ConsoleKit session: Unable to open session: Lunch helper exited with unknown return code 127" The same problem is in safe mode. Mouse and keyboard are "death".
I am currently running Suse 11.3. I continue to get the following error when logging into the KDE login manager with my user account
"Warning: Cannot open ConsoleKit session: Unable to open session. The name
org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit was not provided by any .service files."
After acknowledging the error, it resets back to the login manager screen. If I login with root, I get the same message, but it continues on and logins into the session
Using the most recent -current/13.37, I'm curious if there is a New Right Way to suspend as a regular user from the command line, now that we've got PolicyKit/ConsoleKit running the show. I've seen some things (e.g., on the Archlinux wiki) that seem to come close, but require UPower. For some reason I can't wrap my head around the PolicyKit documentation well enough to figure this out.
My old solution was to add a line to /etc/sudoers giving anyone in the power group access to pm-suspend, pm-hibernate, and shutdown, and this is probably what I'll end up doing with 13.37.
Basically I'm trying to write a simple script that will have zenity display a yes or no question and then run a program depending on what I select. I'm also trying to figure out how to have zenity display a message after I select yes or no on the first display. I feel as though I'm forgetting to do something basic with the script...
View 7 Replies View RelatedI've been making a "gui" for a script to help automate some of the steps involved in customizing a live cd with zenity. I have a menu with radio buttons for each option. When I pick "Remove a package manually", I have it show all of the installed packages as well as a text box for me to type the name into. The only downside to this method is that the package window overlaps the text box. Is there a way to change the window position of zenity windows?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am busy writing this script to get a pixel count of a large batch of images in a directory for a research project. To do this I'm using a loop to get all the images in the directory. To make the whole procedure more user friendly for some colleagues I decided to use zenity, something I haven't yet really worked with. As not to make sure that the users don't have to watch to this blank screen during the actual processing of the images I'm trying to get the zenity progress bar working. So far the progress bar comes up but instead of changing over time it stays "empty" till all the images are processed and then becomes 100% when all images are done. What servers my needs for now, but since I am trying to learn more about zenity I was wondering how I could change the script to get the progress bar properly working? Below is the piece of script I am talking about.
Code:
cd $input #goto path of image directory
(for a in *jpg *JPG *jpeg *JPEG; do
if [ -f "$a" ]; then #was it a image file
b="$a" #set b to $a
convert -resize 1000x1000! ${b} -depth 1 -format %c histogram:info:$b.txt #get pixelcount and write to .txt file
fi
done) | zenity --progress
I'm trying to send the results of a command line $du --max-depth=1 to a zenity message box.I want to create a .sh script that I can run as a Nautilus script that will open a zenity message box with a listing of sub-folders/sizes. $DU with options, will provide the results in a terminal window, but I can't seem to get it into a zenity message box. I've tried gxmessage also, but no go.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAwhile back, PabloTwo pointed me to zenity as a way to create bash scripts with changeable parameters. That thread is here, for anyone interested in reading about it: [URL] Anyway, my problem is that I'm trying to capture input that contains double-dashes ("--") but zenity (or maybe or it's bash???) complains with the following error message:
"This option is not available. for all possible usages.
bash: [/code]: No such file or directory"
Here's an example of what I'm doing:
Code:
# Select the time of day
Flytime=`zenity --list --text="Select the Time" --radiolist --height=300 --width=300 --hide-column=2 --column="Select" --column="Code" --column="Time of Day"
"" "--timeofday=real" "Local Time"
[code]....
What I want to accomplish is for the variable $Flytime to contain either "--timeofday=real" or "--timeofday=dawn" (without the quotes) depending upon which radio button is selected. I have tried escaping "--timeofday" (e.g. "--timeofday" and even "--timeofday") but that's not working.
I have installed a cluster computer with 10 nodes . The manufacturer is HP . All nodes and the master node have redhat enterprise linux installed in them . When I shutdown the nodes from the master terminal using "shutdown -h now" they get shutdown . But they dont get completely turned off . This issue bothers me when the power supply is given , all nodes boot up simultaneously generating a huge heat .
Thing to note : When we shutdown our PC they get completely turned off . When the power supply is given , a press on the Power On button is required to boot the system. But , why does it not happpen in the case of cluster? Is there any other way of completely turning off the nodes from the master terminal ?

I'm using zenity 2.28.0 in a bash script (under kde4) to select multiple files in a directory. It works fine, but always defaults to showing hidden files. How can I get it to hide hidden files by default?

I even tried adding shopt -u dotglob to my script. zenity invocation (extracted from a more complex statement): zenity --title "Select Print Files to Delete" --file-selection --multiple
Is there a way to make a dialog with zenity which would show an updating list? Zenity does it with progress, but I didn't figure out if it's possible to do it with the list. I.e. for example, I want to monitor something, and update the dialog with new list periodically. Is it even possible? zenity can wait for data from stdin, but it just adds stuff to the list. May be there are some control sequences which clear the list in the dialog?
For example:
{ echo "Foo"; sleep 2; echo "Bar"; } | zenity --list --title='Dynamic list?' --text='Some data' --column='values'
How can I instead of adding Bar, replace the Foo with it?
