Ubuntu :: Every Time Open A .conf File It Pops The "Do You Want To Run Or Display Its Content?"
Sep 16, 2010
I'm working with .conf files which I need to edit (with gedit for example) and an .sh file which I need to run occasionally.
And every time I open a .conf file it pops the "Do you want to run or display its content?" question.
I tried to configure Nautilus to stop prompting me every time by setting the Edit->Preferences->Behavior to Run executable text files when they are opened.
But now every time I try to run the .sh file it opens it in gedit instead of running it.
Is there anyway to set the behavior for specific file types?
Like so it'd open the .conf files in a text editor and run the .sh files?
(Maybe I should mention that I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 with Gnome)

go about developing this add-on. i am testing this on my xbmc-live set-up; i am fairly affluent in bash/ c but unfortunately i dont have experience with python.i trimmed the data using this bash 1-liner so the output looks like:
Code:
xbmc@XBMCLive:~$ wget -q --output-document=- www.google.com/movies | sed -n 3p | tr '<' "

2010.01.13-22:28:28
I want to send this file content to date -s command so I can modify using a cron job.
I tried several ways to pipe the file contents to date command but did not work.

I have installed ClamAV 0.95.3 into Ubuntu 9.10 (i386) fully patched
I am behind an authenticating proxy, so I've entered these details into freshclam.conf:
HTTPProxyServer myproxy.com
HTTPProxyPort 1234
HTTPProxyUsername myusername
HTTPProxyPassword mypass
code....
So I changed the perms to 0700 (user is clamav).
Now I get:
$ sudo freshclam
ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf
I checked DNS resolution with this (which I found in a thread somewhere):
# host database.clamav.net
database.clamav.net is an alias for db.local.clamav.net.
db.local.clamav.net is an alias for db.other.clamav.net.
db.other.clamav.net has address 193.1.193.64
db.other.clamav.net has address 130.59.10.36
- I presume the installation can find the update site?

How can we write a file and display in terminal at the same time. Like for example, when I do..

That should save right.. but I want to display it in terminal otherwise.

I have discovered that after employing the Wicd Network Manager I can no longer connect via ppp. The reason, it seems, is that each instance of Wicd changes the content of my /etc/resolv.conf file from:
Code:
search SPRINT
nameserver 195.128.182.5
to:
Code:
Generated by dhcpcd
# /etc/resolv.conf.head can replace this line
# /etc/resolv.conf.tail can replace this line
It has been suggested that I write a script that does this.

I have a newly installed Kubuntu 10.04 running here, works fine except for one thing.
I have a kind of "fileserver" and it has a samba share that I have mounted in the home folder of my desktop computer ("/home/xxx/fileserver", the server is running an older version of Ubuntu, can't exactly remember what it is but the filesystem is ext2, if that's of any importance).
I have large files on the server, mostly video. When I use Dolphin (or Konqueror, doesn't make any difference) and right click one of these large files and choose Properties, it takes a LONG time to load the properties window. As if it copies the file to local hd before opening properties, or something.
The reason why I posted here and not in the networking section is, that I had the exact same setup with my previous installation which was Kubuntu 8.04, and also at least three different Ubuntu's before that. Never had this problem before, so I think my server and networking thingies are okay.

This server is for dhcp and sharing purposes.I can actually access one nfs share via other ubuntu and osx clients on the network, then I configured another share with different mount point (different drive, different forlder, different contents).The problem is: when I connect form a client to the new one it displays the same exact content of the first share. It seems that is mounting the same share on a different mount point on the client and exporting the shares via the exportfs -ra command doesn't solve nothing.This is my fstab file
Code:
proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation

I recently got the problem that Thunderbird does not displays the messages anymore. The e-mails are downloaded form the server, a new email warning is given, but the e-mail cannot be displayed (in fact it is not loaded in the message window. I could only see the TB start page). I cannot even see the old messages.
However, when use "see message source" I can see the e-mails.
I also noticed this message in the error console:
server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555
I use Fedora 12 + thunderbird 3.0.6-1
On another linux box F9+ThB 2.0.0 I do not have that issue.
Today I upgraded to Fedora 13 + TB 3.1.1. This should be the latest one, but I still cannot see the message.
Also, on F13 I got another issue with Firefox 3.6.7. When I switch between the tabs, the tabs will turn black and will not get back to normal for 10-15 sec. It looks liek a random effect because often only part fo the page turns black. This issue appear in the windows of TB 3.1.1 since updated to F13.
My hardware is a Sony SR49 laptop with ATI mobility Radeon HD3470
Have Google chrome and this black page issue is not present. The same with Evolution mail, but I do not like it.

I have a problem to use echo to display the content of a variable.
This is what I do:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
USAGE="Usage: name [OPTIONS] [DIRECTORIES]"
echo $USAGE
When I run this little script I get the following output:
Usage: name [OPTIONS] R
So I think that [DI might be some sort of escape sequence. But I do not know how to unescape it. Does anyone have a hint for me?

I run opensuse 11.3/KDE:Factory. Recently, kmail updated to using akonadi. The following problem came up. My local emails are now managed by a "local folders" component of akonadi. The folder structure is displayed correctly in Kmail. However, no emails are shown for some folders. Emails still live in the .kde4/share/app/kmail directory hierarchy and can be imported into a new folder after moving them somewhere else. However, even after a fresh import sometimes emails are no longer recognized.

I have the following scenario that doesn't seem to work normally. I have a windows 7 pc from which I am using putty to connect to my other linux servers (all running redhat 5 and 6). So here is the scenario that works and one that does not work. And I'm trying to figure out the one that does not work. Scenario that works:
From windows 7 (putty) I ssh into Linux_Server_1.
echo $DISPLAY
localhost:10.0
I run xclock and I see it pop up on my windows 7 pc. I am using xming on windows 7 to help me populate the display from linux to windows. One that does not work:
From windows 7 (putty) I ssh into Linux_Server_1. Then from Linux_Server_1 I ssh into Linux_Server_2.
echo $DISPLAY
<no output>
I try to setup $DISPLAY with localhost:10.0 or 0.0 or even my windows 7 pc ip address:0.0 ....etc Then when I try to run xclock I doesn't work.
I get these error messages: Error: Can't open display: <ip of display>
Also as a side note all our Linux servers are sitting on one subnet. My pc is sitting on another subnet. I use vpn to connect to the subnet where the servers sit from my pc.
