Hi, I am currently trying to get the game "Bug!" to work on my Ubuntu 10.10. It's a game that was intended for Sega Saturn or Windows 95 PC. All my Googling powers have failed me so I am left with posting here for some support. Anyway, after running through this page: http://wiki.winehq.org/256ColorMode Here are some problems I am facing: Xephyr: Code: Window manager warning:

HI I am very new on Xorg and X11 technology, but I think there is a problem with the xinit system, here is the story : When I compiled the xinit from the source code with these options on the configure: ./configure --without-twm --without-xclock --without-xterm Everything works fine , but at the end the file xinitrc in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc -no & -no -geometry 50x50-1+1 & -no

Hi all, Here's a small mechanism I have built to run games in a dedicated display. The main reasons for doing that were: - to avoid desktop stuff to pop over my games display - to run games in a display matching the game resolution - to avoid manually switching my main resolution back and forth - to avoid problems where quitting a games leaves my desktop in the wrong resolution The idea is

Move all the dependencies with the same name in all the distributions to a single list at the end.

Hi I''ve installed xen with debian sarge as dom0 and domU''s. I''ve used debootstrap to install the first domU, and it worked fine except one little thing: When I connect to the domU console (xm console 2) and execute base-config (a debian thing), it failes. To solve the problem, set the TERM env to xterm (export TERM=xterm) and then execute base-config, and you have a

hi all, I've inherited a server with CentOS 6.4 the VNC Server starts up with the OS and its screen resolution is set to 800x600. I found that I can set the resolution by specifying the -geometry switch, but I can't find where the call to start the vncserver is set in order to change it. I know that it's not in /etc/xinetd.d (the only file there is rsync) here are the contents of

I've been scratching my head over this one after setting up VNC on another existing server. Followed the instructions here http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server as usual. It worked initially. However since this server is going to be installed in a rather inconvenient place and having done pretty stupid things before, I decided for the first time to try the portion that says # Add the

hey guys, Ok so I've installed tiger vnc on a centos 6.5 machine. And I've edited /etc/sysconfig/vncservers [root at potwsld00001 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/vncservers VNCSERVERS="1:mysql" And added the contents of the xstartup file for the user: [root at potwsld00001 ~]# cat /home/mysql/.vnc/xstartup #!/bin/sh [ -r /etc/sysconfig/i18n ] && . /etc/sysconfig/i18n export

I just installed CentOS 5 on a Sony Vaio V505 (PCG-V505DC2P) and it worked perfectly. A full yum update also worked fine. The user made various changes to it over the weekend, and how I'm faced with trying to undo endless "INIT: Id "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes" error messages. I've spent half the day googling various answers. init 5 will not

For the second time in two days, my mouse just "disappeared" from my desktop system running CentOS 4.1 (yes, I'm using CentOS as a workstation). At the time, I was trying to open the main Gnome menu from the panel, and I think my hand slipped before I released the mouse button. I tried accessing an alternate console (Ctrl-Alt-1) and then coming back to the X11 desktop

To GeraldClark and PjWelsh, I have centos 6 and used your guide to get it going with vnc. First of all thanks for putting that up, so many techs told me I did not have to install a desktop to make it work and they were so wrong. http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server Using centos 6 I found some differences and wanted to post them here to see if anything helps clear it all up. I acutally

Bonjour Everyone! I am trying to get the video working on an iMac 24" Core 2 Duo with an integrated GeForce 7600 GT. The installation disk I am using (Ubuntu Trusty Tahir 14.04.5 LTS modified for the mac) loads nouveau and tries to use the 304 drivers, but fails. The story of the problem is documented here, but not the solution (yet) http://mymanthemaker.blogspot.hk/2017/03/imac-ubuntu-

Use the common denominator for SLES and openSUSE in the dependencies. For example most of NetworkManager pieces and metacity aren't provided on SLES. ifconfig is in the net-tools-deprecated package in openSUSE Factory, which means after openSUSE Leap 42.2. Older versions have it in the net-tools package. Adding this complexity only to add ifconfig because sysadmins prefer it isn't too

I'm trying to use VNC to connect my home Centos box (up to date centos 5) to my Centos 4 (also up to date) at work. I have no problem connecting. The problem occurs after logging in, for every applet in the bottom Gnome panel I get an error box from which I can choose to remove the applet from the panel, or just go on. I choose to not delete but to just go on. After I get a half dozen or so of

I am still trying without much success to get a desktop on my minimal + virtualization install of a CentOS-6.3 kvm host. When I run startx I get a desktop but other than the icons for computer, home and trash there is nothing displayed. I can right click the mouse and from there I can open a terminal window and creat a folder on the desktop but I have no title bar and no status bar. There are

Dear "someone who can help", I am having a problem with SAMBA and SWAT (although I'm not sure SWAT is part of the problem...) I get two instances of "smbd" when ever it is started on this system. From SWAT I can only stop it ONE time. After that, each time I attempt to stop the SMBD daemon from SWAT it simply starts TWO more instances of the daemon (or something

When I run a remote xterm, the ssh hangs even after I quit the xterm. Below is the output for the following sequence: client> ssh -v -v -v dazel xterm xterm> exit client> ^C The outcome is always the same - the ssh doesn't exit with I quit the xterm... I have to hit CTRL-C on the client side. polycut:~> ssh -v -v -v dazel xterm OpenSSH_2.9p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL

Hello, I'm using selenium rc for automated testing on a centos box. working on the box itself has no problem as long as i start the server through terminal. though if i wanted to run tests remotely i have a problem with firefox not knowing on which display to run. i have a vnc client running on port 1 (5801/5901) I've tried the following: export DISPLAY=1 ; java -jar

Is there a command that marks the screen as "dirty" and hopefully redraws it? If I do a control ALT F1 and the F7 this in effect redraws the screen. I am getting video artifacts that I think is in the nvidia driver. the switching console works - I was just hoping there is a more convenient way. some command or something. Thanks, Jerry

Thanks for these explanations - it all makes sense, that is, the default behavior for a process that does not capture SIGQUIT is to quit and perform a core dump (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_signal#SIGQUIT). Then the remaining question, as Luke says, is: should R handle this signal? For instance, in interactive mode, SIGQUIT could maybe bring up: Possible actions: 1: abort (with core
