Ubuntu :: [lucid] Disabling The Autorun Feature?
Jul 2, 2010
I have an external WD hard drive on which I have created several partitions to facilitate data arrangement. Whenever I plug it in, all partitions are mounted. That is okay. I want it to automount all partitions. But the annoying thing is all partitions opening and popping up and cluttering my desktop (which I, very dearly, keep very arranged and clean...)
I hate it and want to edit the settings so the folders will not automatically open and pop up into my face..

Does anyone know what happened to the Multiseat feature that had been in the feature list at one point?To briefly summarise, a single machine with multiple graphics cards, sound cards, keyboards & mice provides multiple seats for users. Each user gets their own monitor, keyboard, mouse & perhaps audio. The rest of the machine resources are then shared.
The last I saw on the topic was this discussion, although I have a recollection that there was going to be support in a newer version of X.Org. I've googled around quite a bit, but can't seem to find anything.
Anybody know anything? It would be a great feature to have and it's frustrating to have had such an omission since F8 :-o

I have a CD for Doom 3. I pop it into my disk drive. Ubuntu recognizes it, but it doesn't run automatically. How do I make it so that it runs?

i have a virus in my mp3 that i don't know how to get rid of. the virus is called 'autorun.inf'. even though it doesn't affect Linux (i think) when i mount the mp3, the icon appears as if it was an empty folder. it use to let me delete/copy files into the mp3 but now it doesn't anymore. i cant delete the autorun.inf file or any file!
Ive had this problem before on the same mp3 and what i did was format the mp3 in windows but the thing keeps coming again and again . ive seen a couple 'windows solutions' for this but i dont have windows anymore so...

I need to run a shell to enable pseudo-multitouch on my touchpad using a shell which automatically configs synclient.I put this file under /home/<username>/, and also put this to the Session manager under system menu. But it doesn't work. I've already used chmod command to make sure that the file is executable.

Had a problem getting my internet connection working with Ubuntu, but I resolved that issue. Problem is I still have to manually run dhclient every time Ubuntu boots, because I have no network unless I do. Is there a script or something that can do this automatically?

I have an embedded PC104 application where I am trying to get my program to start automatically at power up. The program contains a graphical user interface, using an old SVGALIB (no longer supported). It works fine if I start it after log in.But when I put the path in rc.local, it will only run if I disable all the graphical stuff. The program bunts if it looks ahead and sees the call to vga_setmode(), where I set it for 480 x 640 resolution.

I've looked at many tutorials on the internet but none helped me much.I've already tried to edit fstab so it would have something like /dev/cdrom/media/cdrom0udf,iso9660user,auto00.But the thing is this only takes effect when the OS loads, and the CD has to be inserted at that time, so it's not something permanent or viable. What I'm looking for it's something to auto-mount the cd in the fluxbox GUI when it's inserted just like in Gnome or Kde.

I remember reading something a while back that theres a folder that you can just plonk a bash script into and it will run on login but cant find anything about it now. I have found the command $update-rc.d <filename> but scripts added this way have to lsbInit compliant and i havent got a clue where to start with that I also cant just add it to the startup applications list because for some stupid reason following the kernel update a few weeks back (this used to work fine) suddenly has no effect. Heres the script incase anyone wants extra points for telling me why all of a sudden it doesnt work. (ive also made the same script run as a python3 program to no effect.)
Code:
#! /bin/bash
# This is a simple bash script to automatically play a
# random song on banshee 15 seconds after startup
sleep 15 && banshee --play

Currently have debian i386 on a CD. go to reboot my laptop with the CD still in the drive- nothing. So i did some playing around and I found this when trying to manually run the CD through archive manager I think on ubuntu: Autorun script not found? I would assume this is why debian will not boot up after restart. how can I fix this?

I've just partitioned my hard drive with GParted so that I have space to install and run Windows OS based programmes such as Monkey Island (wine simply won't work) and other PC games. I have the Windows XP SP2 Installation CD but my OS (Intrepid Ibex) won't allow me to autorun the CD and proceed to installation.
Now having hunted around the net little, it seems the answer is System->Preferences->Removable Drives and Media. Problem is, I don't have a Removable Drives and Media option on this menu. Is there a workaround for this? E.g., is there a way of using the Terminal to enable autorun, or is there another way I can do this?As I'm pretty new to this thing, feel free to use short words and detailed explanations.
