Not sure why, but it wouldn't affect make your system automatically start skype. Read 'man prelink.conf': -b --black-list=PATH This option allows

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 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

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

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 am trying to create a one line command that will: 1. Find all files ending in .conf 2. tar these over ssh to a remote server. I have reached this point in my trials. a. I can find the files. b.

CentOS-6.2 I am investigating how to split long lines present in a Mailman generated html archives. Mailman places the email bodies within <pre></pre> tags and some users have MUAs that send entire paragraphs as one long line. I have looked at fmt and fold but these assume a pipeline from stdout to a fixed filename, which presumably is best done at the time of the original

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
