Ubuntu Servers :: Disable Kde / X Server Autostart 10.04?

Jun 28, 2010

I installed KDE for very limited uses. However, everytime I start up, it brings me to the KDE login screen. I want to revert it back to console login. How do I go about doing that? And if possible, prevent future GUI packages from autostarting. so this seemed to work:

Code: sudo mv -f /etc/init/kdm.conf /etc/init/kdm.conf-disabled That basically renames it so it doesn't start. And if you do need to use the GUI, just run startx

Ubuntu :: Screen Keeps Going Blank/flashing Blank?

May 17, 2010

When i use my computer (whether it's going online, typing, playing a flash game, or coding) I get these "Black Flashes" that are becoming longer and more frequent. A "Black Flash" is when my computer screen turns blank (but you can still see the backlight) and i have to press the NUMpad ENTER button, shake my mouse furiously, or click my mouse, which sometimes causes undesired actions, but gets me my screen back. sometimes the Black Flashes last a milisecond or 5 seconds or i have to hold the power button and restart because it won't come back on.

Specs:
Toshiba P205-S6337 Laptop
Ubuntu Karmic Koala
2.39 GB of RAM

Ubuntu :: How To Autostart A Drive

Jul 28, 2010

My Ubuntu is the latest, Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit.

I have 2 hard drives, one holds windows (160gb), another has three partitions, 15gb for ubuntu 10.04, 5gb for swap, and the remaining 480gb formatted as ntfs for files..

The 480gb space is drive D:, my files are located there and i point the apps to get their files from drive D:. For example, "My Music" folder is in drive D:, and so I tell SongBird to grab the music files from that directory.

It's not a big problem, but whenever I restart ubuntu, drive D: does not automatically open so SongBird initially cannot locate the files. What I want to happen is that when ubuntu starts, drive D: is already loaded, so that the applications can grab the files they need from that drive automatically without me having to manually open drive D: everytime ubuntu starts.

Ubuntu :: Autostart Program Not Working?

I have a java application that is in this path: java -jar /home/jbo10/.stuff/run.jar

If I type that command the gui comes up and it's ready to run. I want this program to autostart with ubuntu, so I went into gnome-session-properties and put that command in there.

But it's not starting. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or if there's another way to autostart programs?

Ubuntu :: Autostart Launcher Not Starting?

Jul 9, 2010

ubuntu 9.10

I am working on a custom install preseed. Part of the process is creating a file: /home/bholt/.config/autostart/starter.sh

That way on first boot, this will execute and continue my custom process.

But it does not start. After boot if I go double click it it runs fine.

And one time it did auto start correctly. But I don't know what I did to break it.

All i can think is I changed starter.sh to in turn start something else rather than just run itself.

Ubuntu :: Autostart HomePipe Agent

Oct 28, 2010

HomePipe (www.homepipe.net) a site that lets you access folders on your PC remotely just came out with a Linux client.

I have successfully installed this on my Ubuntu 10.10 machine and it seems to be working well.

My problem is, I can't figure out how to have the agent autostart when I boot.

Currently, to launch the agent, I need to open a terminal, change to the directory where the agent is installed, then run this command:

I assume it should be fairly simple to add this to the Startup Applications, but being a noon I can't figure it out!

Ubuntu :: Autostart.sh Foesn�t Seem To Work?

Feb 25, 2011

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 using the minimal CD. I then installed Openbox and everything is working so far, except for tint2. I tried to put it into the autostart.sh in /home/noneofthem/.config/openbox, but it doesn�t exist there. Instead I found another version in /etc/xdg/openbox/. Changes to that version don�t seem to work either.

Ubuntu :: Autostart Applications Not Remembered?

Mar 27, 2011

I have been trying to stop some apps from starting up like bluetooth manager etc but everytime I untick it and then reopen the startup applications preferences it is still ticked!

I also have been trying to get Awn Dock to autostart so I add it and set the command as avant-window-navigator but the next time I reopen it is not there, I have also tried checking the tick under the Awn Dock Preferences - "Start Awn automatically" but this doesn't stick either - all the other setting do though. I have looked in the ~/.config/autostart folder and that has a Padlock on it with the owner as root - should this be the case or should I change permissions on it to myself?

I am having the same problem, as soon as X tries to load my screen just goes blank. I have an ATI Radeon 9550.

Anyways I'll check back in later on if I have any new information I will post.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wlan0 Will Not Autostart Upon Login

Jun 14, 2010

Hardware:
Toshiba Satellite A505D-S6958
Wireless: Realtek 8192e
Ubuntu 10.04, x86

lspci

I was using ndsiwrapper with XP driver, but always prefer to Linux drivers if they are available. So, I emailed Realtek web support and they sent me latest drivers for Ubuntu 10.04. I followed their instructions and it works great! With, the exception of, I have to run ./wlan0up each time after I login to start the wireless.

I seem to remember having to modify a file some place, which was very easy to do, but for the life of me I cannot seem to remember what it was or what to put into it? and also, how do you tell if your wireless card is making use of the "n" speed, if the network your are on has it available?

Name: Evolution
Command: sh -c "sleep 10 ; alltray -na -nt evolution"

Ubuntu :: Autostart And Automounting Of A Software RAID 6?

Aug 22, 2010

I am running a RAID 6 array via mdadm and I cannot make it autostart and automount at boot which is fairly imperative for a server config.I am running the latest build of regular Ubuntu and not server, mostly because I have some other tasks for it that kind of requires a GUI, amongst that virtualization that I have so far working correctly.Can anyone provide me with proper instructions on how to get the array running properly?I found a few guides, added some things to the mdadm.conf which was supposed to be the end of it, however the array still doesn't start and let alone automount.

Ubuntu :: How To Autostart Alarm Clock In Gnome

Nov 19, 2010

I installed 'Alarm Clock' from the Software Center and would like to have said app autostarts. There is an option in Alarm Clock to autostart with Gnome but that doesn't work so I assume the reason being I'm not root.

How to autostart Alarm Clock?

Also, in System > Preferences > Startup Applications, the 'Add' asks for a command. Is this like Windows whereas I simply point it to the app I want started? I don't even know where apps are installed. Who said ignorance is bliss?

Ubuntu :: Autostart A Script AFTER NICs Are Enabled?

Jan 10, 2011

I have a script that I need to run on boot which requires my network interfaces to be already setup when it runs. On an old P4 test machine (all machines in question are running server 10.10) I have to add "sleep 1" in front of my script to get this to work. My application is boot-speed sensitive but I'm alright with this.

What I'm not alright with, and don't understand, is when I move the script to my Atom D510 platform I have to bump up to "sleep 9" to get it to work reliably but even as low as "sleep 5" works on occasion. I have been using both /etc/init.d and an @reboot command inside /etc/crontab with similar results.I don't understand why I have to sleep so much longer on the Atom (everything else aside they both boot in about the same amount of time) and I don't understand why the duration I have to sleep on the Atom is not stable.Is there any way I can get a more fine grained control of when my script executes (ie as soon as possible after the network interfaces are started)?
