Ubuntu Networking :: Stop Network Manager From Starting On Boot?

Jul 10, 2011

I would like to stop network manager from starting up on boot. I have tried moving

Code:
/etc/init.d/network-manager stop
to rc.local and it did nothing but boot me into the CLI

I have also tried to put

Code:
sudo service network-manager stop and that did nothing also.

After I get network manager to stop on boot up. How do I make it so it will not auto connect to networks? My computer keeps on joining a different network on boot up. And I don't like this as some times I go to my banks website and I am on there network with out realizing it (because of the auto connect) Is there a way to stop this also?

Ubuntu :: X And GDM Not Starting Automatically?

Dec 12, 2010

played around with Plymouth Manager yesterday, and today, my system would not start. I got some help from #ubuntu, and to my surprise, startx ran without problems. sudo service gdm start also worked perfectly. However, when I boot up my computer, I am always taken to the recovery screen. How can I stop this from happening, get my boot screen back, and make everything work as it should?I'm on Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit with an nVidia GeForce 8800 GT and version current on the nVidia restricted drivers.

Ubuntu Servers :: Zabbix-Server Mysql Not Starting At Boot?

Oct 18, 2010

I recently installed an Ubuntu 10.04LTS server. I have zabbix-server on that machine, and I noticed that after reboot it won't start. Probabily, the mix of upstart and old init.d scripts result in zabbix starting when mysql is not active yet, in fact in zabbix-server.log I see it cannot reach db. How can I make sure zabbix-server waits for mysql?

Ubuntu Networking :: Prevent Apache2 Server From Starting At Boot?

Nov 18, 2010

One of my ubuntu 10.04 boxes starts apache2 server automatically at boot. I know from the output of the command:

Code:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 status

I can't remember even setting that up, and I don't think it does so by default, since my other box in fact does not even have apache2 server installed. I can stop the server once I login, but is there a way to stop it from automatically starting the server, or even better, completely uninstall the daemon. I tried

Code:

sudo apt-get remove apache2

but that does not work. I guess the daemon is part of some bigger package.

Ubuntu Servers :: Stop Tftpd From Starting Up?

Ubuntu :: Bash Not Starting Automatically?

Apr 28, 2010

everytime i open a terminal window, all i see is:

$ _

and i have to type bash everytime to get it running. i found a bandaid fix by having it type bash at the "custom command" profile preference... but i still consider the problem to be unsolved, because i still have to manually type 'bash' whenever i log remotely (putty). it seems like something happened, and now bash is not loaded by the terminal by default like it should.

PS: i already tried 'cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~./bashrc', and it didn't seem to do anything.

I am using Ubuntu 9.10, fairly fresh install. Had one hard reset since I installed it, which could be when the problem started. Also, I was messing a bit with profiles, switching their ID's and adding/deleting them (not sure if that would be the problem).

Ubuntu :: Starting X Automatically In A Minimal Install?

Aug 24, 2010

I'm moving a homebrew arcade cabinet I have in my sitting room over from Gentoo to Ubuntu. Gentoo's served me well for a couple of years, but it refuses to recognise a touchscreen I recently installed on the cab, so I thought I'd give Ubuntu a try.

There is very little space on the SATA DOM inside the board in the cab, so I try and put as little OS on there as possible. To that end, I installed the minimal iso, and then apt-got X. I manually configured xorg.conf to make both monitors attached to the cab work, and I can enter X fine from the command line.

But what I need to do is have X start on powerup and automatically run my game. In Gentoo this is as simple as putting "xinit [GAME]" into /etc/init.d/local.start (the equivalent of rc.local). No login required, the prompt didn't even come up until I'd exited the game.

However, if I try and do this in Ubuntu, X can't find any devices, even though rc.local is at position 99. I've tried putting the lines in rc.local as well as manually update-rc.d-ing my own files, but no luck. X refuses to start until after the login.

So what seem to need is some way of automatically logging in as root on the command line, starting X, then running my game.

Ubuntu :: Queue - Prevent From Starting Automatically Upon Logging In?

May 8, 2010

I have a couple apps that I cannot figure out how to prevent them from starting automatically upon logging in. They are NOT listed in my Startup Applications under preferences. For example, pidgin. Pidgin automatically starts at each login even though it is not in the startup apps nor can I find an option in pidgin itself. Tomboy is another. I always get an error that tomboy cannot be added to my panel when I restart. The error in the tomboy panel log is that tomboy is already running. Does ubuntu have a hidden "start up" folder like Windows does in the start menu? Where can I clear this file/folder?
