I know i can't execute things in /tmp now but is there a way to execute only one file and no more???
I googled around and couldnt find what I was looking for. Maybe I used the wrong search terms, but whatever. I was wondering if there was a possibility to execute a series of terminal commands just by double-clicking an icon. For example, there would be an icon on my desktop, and if I were to doubleclick it, it would execute "cd ~/.wine2" and then "WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine2" wine program.exe".
I realise that most of you will probably go "duh, that's simple" or something similar, but I am extremely new to ubuntu, and dont know my way around yet.
I just installed Ubuntu 10.xx and I'm new. I want to install Savage2 with the terminal.

View 2 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.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was doing a tutorial on scripting in bash. I saved my file on the desktop and I cannot seem to get to that file to execute it. Here is what I have been using:
I try cd Desktop says that there is no such directory.
I tried /home/me/Desktop same thing.
Suppose I have a binary program with only execute permission enabled for the current user. How (in general) would I be able to obtain a core dump of the file? I think I have read it somewhere but I want to know if there are more ways of doing it.

View 7 Replies View RelatedWhen I try to compile some Java code on Ubuntu 10.10 (kernel 2.6+) using make and a Makefile.
I get an error indicating that the make utility cannot execute the java compile command (javac).
The error reads: /bin/bash: line 6: .: /usr/local/jdk1.5.0_18/bin/javac: cannot execute binary file
I am executing make as root. I have enabled permissions on all directories in the path /usr/local/jdk1.5.0_18/bin/javac and on javac itself.
I get this error whether using a jdk installed via ubuntu apt-get, or whether I install the jdk myself. And I get it using either Java 1.5 or 1.6
My machine has an 80386 processor. I notice the make utility is built for i686-pc-linux-gnu
However, I can manually compile using javac.
I can compile calling javac from within a bash script.
I can compile using the java compiler gcj from the command line: gcj --main=HelloWorld HelloWorld.java -o HelloWorld.exe
But I cannot compile java code from the makefile. Any reasons why I might be getting this error?
I have a strange issue on one of my machines. The same thing works fine on all the others. When I execute:
Code:
sudo -u myuser -i ls
I get:
Code:
/bin/ls: /bin/ls: cannot execute binary file
On the other hand if I just run
Code:
sudo -u myuser -i
and then run ls, it executes successfully, but I don't want to stay logged in as myuser I just want to run a single command.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install this app called genBlast. It's a bioinformatics tool that does some cool stuff (I guess the actual use doesn't matter that much). Anyway, it comes as a .tar.gz folder with about a dozen executables in it; no compiling necessary. I extracted it to the desktop so I didn't have to worry about permissions, and then just tried to run it from inside the directory (it's a command line app).
All of the executables work with a ./ except one, and it's the most important one for that matter. When I go to run it, I get the error message Code: bash: ./genblast: cannot execute binary file I've checked permissions with ls -l, run a chmod 'u+x' just to make sure, and everything else I can think of. But it just won't work. Also, I just installed it on another computer and it works fine, so I'm pretty sure it's on my end.
