How does one configure Skype/Gnome such that one can have Skype installed but not auto-start when the Gnome desktop opens? I have looked in the 'System/Preferences/Startup Applications' menu but Skype is not listed there. There are no options in the Application itself that allow this setting either. If there no other way then I will remove the application package and re-install when I

So, what does this do? # cat /etc/prelink.conf.d/skype.conf -b /usr/bin/skype -- *** e-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** Do NOT transmit sensitive data via e-Mail James B.

I had cause to install the Skype for Linux package from the NUX repo. I discover that this package is configured to automatically start Skype whenever one logs on to the Gnome desktop. This behaviour I do not wish. However, there seems to be no option in Skype to turn that 'feature' off. Is there any way to disable this in Gnome or elsewhere? I will be removing Skype shortly when the

generic way to find where something is being called, if you known the name of that something: enter as your user in terminal: # su - youruser $ grep -irs skype . | less now just need to parse the output, find where its being called (probably .X?? or .x?? or .gnome??), remove it. --Virilha ----- Message from "James B.

I have installed Skype 4.0.0.8 on my new workstation running CentOS-6.3 (kvm) and the Gnome DTM. This host has an Intel DG43GT motherboard with on-board audio. The sound works when tested in the sound preferences in the desk top. Skype runs and the integrated usb video and microphone both work (I infer this from the mic test in Skype options showing movement on the intensity bar as I can hear

I had not thought of that, probably because I never encountered the need before. None-the-less, there is no entry in that list which appears related to Skype. -- *** e-Mail is NOT a

CentOS-5.7 Skype 2.1.0.81beta Formerly, when I opened Skype a green Skype icon would appear in the upper menu bar of the Gnome desktop. Now it does not. I must have moved or modified something on the Desktop to cause this to disappear although I cannot recall what that might have been. It certainly was not a conscious modification and I would like to get the icon back. The absence is not

CentOS-6.9 I am trying to verify a locally created dvd. I am using sha256sum in this fashion: sha256sum /dev/sr0 Which gave this result: sha256sum: /dev/sr0: Input/output error So I tried this: sha256sum /dev/cdrom Which, after some time, also produces: sha256sum: /dev/cdrom: Input/output error What does this mean and how do I fix it? -- *** e-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel

I am experiencing a problem with gnome terminal, most likely caused by something that I have done and which I need to undo. The problem is that somehow the gnome configuration has been changed so that the "Contents" menu item under "Help" in Gnome Terminal has the character "space" mapped as a keyboard accelerator. I would prefer that this be mapped to just about

We have a requirement to allow ssh access to a server in order to provide a secure link to one of our legacy systems. I would like to chroot these accounts. I have this working except for one small detail, the user's prompt in the ssh session. Each user has their shell set to /bin/bash in /etc/passwd. However, instead of getting the prompt defined in their .bash_profiles we see this:

Is it possible to use this exploit against a kvm guest to read memory used by the host?
