Apr 4, 2010I decided to try and find a home inventory application. I found one called "Attic Manager" that works in Ubuntu. [URL]
The instructions are to run it from the terminal. That's ok for once and a while, but a pain if used regularly. So I tried to set up a launcher for it. I couldn't seem to get it to work. In the command, I simply put in the path and file name, but can't seem to get it to work.
Ubuntu :: Create A Launcher With Sudo Priveliges?
May 30, 2010I am wondering how to create a launcher with 2 functions in Ubuntu 10.04. The functions I want are both in terminal, and I want them executed in this order:
# sync
# echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
The echo 3 command requires root privileges to run, and I haven't figured out how to do that yet. I am brand new in ubuntu, and have only been using it for about 2 weeks. The reason behind this is that I want a launcher in the bar at the top of the screen that I can click periodically to dump my ram cache, since I have 4 gb of ram, and do not see the point of using 100 percent of that when just sitting on the desktop.

Ubuntu :: Create A Launcher That's Doing Two Separate Commands
Sep 23, 2010I'm trying to create a launcher that's doing two separate commands. Here's currently what I have.
Code:
rm ~/Games/Nintendo DS/NO$Zoomer.ini; wine ~/Games/Nintendo DS/NO$Zoomer.exe
Now, the reason I have to delete the .ini file, is for some reason the file gets corrupted every time (it's a well known problem, from what I've read.) and I can't start up the program until it's removed. Now, it works fine in Terminal, but when I run it through my Launcher icon, it does nothing.

Fedora :: How To Run Scripts From Gnome Launcher Not In The Terminal
Feb 17, 2011I want to use the Gnome Launcher to launch a script I made but it will only work if I select "Application in Terminal." It will not launch if I use "Application".

View 4 Replies View RelatedFedora Installation :: How To Create A Desktop Launcher
Mar 26, 2010I am having trouble creating a desktop launcher icon for an application that needs to run in terminal mode and is run with "mono". After creating the launcher on the desktop it launches the terminal window and then gives the error "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal", and the terminal window is blank. Here are the steps I use to launch the application in a many step process. click on applications/system tools/terminal then in the terminal window I type, cd /var/opensim/Test/bin mono OpenSim.32BitLaunch.exe The above steps work just fine and the instance of the application runs just fine, but it is rather tedious to enter in all that everytime I want to run the application.
1 - place a desktop icon on my desktop to launch the application,
2 - Launch this application when I reboot Fedora so it starts automatically whenever I boot.
The way I created the desktop launcher was to right click on the desktop and select create launcher. I selected "application in terminal" and when I entered in the command line, I added "mono" to the command after navigating to the place the application was with the correct path. Here is the actual command line that is in the launcher that throws the error message.
/var/opensim/Test/bin/mono OpenSim.32BitLaunch.exe
Fedora :: How To Create Launcher For Application Using DosBox
Jun 13, 2011 how do I create a launcher for an application using DosBox? I tried in Alacarte, but it does not show up. I did this both as root and as user.Disregard. It did create the launchers. It just put them in "Other" even though I told it to create them in "Internet" so they are there, but just not where I want them. That is okay since now I can add them to my favorites and put them in the order I want.
I guess I will like Gnome 3 better as I find tweaks to make it work like I want it to work. Still though, it is not nearly as user friendly as my heavily tweaked Gnome 2 with Compiz.Another question though: How do I get it to select and use a photo I want for the background instead of the stock images? It is annoying as all get-out to have the screen turn to grey rather than stay the way I want it. :
