I am using an Ubuntu VPS(Virtual private server) with SSH access. I run my applications(mangos-realmd & mangos-worldd) in SSH terminal and they start up fine. But when I close the SSH terminal they close! but I want it so that when I close my SSH terminal that those programs remain running, and also want them to start up each time I reboot my system. I am found out with rc.local this is now solved or what-not

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am fairly new to linux.We have a machine running CentOS 4.4 and sometimes the machine has to be rebooted. Each time after the reboot, I have to SSH in and manually restart one of our application. I have been reading about doing this online and I am a little confuse.Seems like there are multiple possibilities for starting things up. My finding suggest using the inittab file. Then my question is what runlevel do I pass in? Should I use runlevel 1, 2, 3, or 5? Once the runlevel is determine, then how should I name my startup script? I know to use "S" but what number should I give it? Or, another way to approach this is to put my autostart script in the /etc/rc.local file?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy 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.

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.
i understand autostarting an app is done at setting > session and startup > application autostart.
where is the vlc app located?
i've tried
usr/share/vlc.ico
&
usr/share/vlc.desktop
none of those two have worked.

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!

Changes to that version don�t seem to work either.

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 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?
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:
