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

Not understanding. At what point in the boot process should I be doing that and why would I need to do that at all? Seems like it's something wrong with the Plymouth and plymouth-scirpt packages....I uninstalled them and rebooted I didn't get stuck in a loop but I didn't have a gui. I reinstalled and I'm back at the Plymouth wait error. On Thu, Nov 16, 2017, 4:55 PM Gordon Messmer

On my ubuntu machines I added auth required pam_exec.so /scripts/password_expire.sh to the beginning of /etc/pam.d/common-auth it looks pretty similar to what I did below. In the /etc/bash.bashrc I added a check to wait for the file to be less than 1 second old before looking at it. break out after 5 seconds in case something failed or is taking longer then it should. now people get

Weird. There seems to be quite a bit of software missing from C7.2, gnome-applets being one of them. Or has it been moved or renamed or otherwise obscured? tia

I've been trying to make sense of what I had to do, but couldn't get my head around some issues. What would be the most appropriate way for me to talk to you guys involved in the freedesktop project? Is there an IRC channel? is this list appropriate? Any other list? A web forum?...

Hi, Today I noticed something strange. There seem to be a series of duplicate desktop menu entries in /usr/share/applications. Example: gedit.desktop and org.gnome.gedit.desktop Other example: nautilus.desktop and org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop This is annoying, since I usually edit some custom menu entries for my users. Now, if I edit both files for a single application, I end up with duplicate

Has anyone figured out how to make Firefox 45.4.0 on CentOS 6 use xdgurl to handle xdg:// URLs? Google is full of suggestions that don't work. When I select a an xdg:// link I don't get a dialog asking me what to do like Google says I will. Instead I get a message that says Firefox doesn't have a clue how to handle this URL. Do you want to try again? I tried about:config I added:
