I am running Fedora 17 gnome (shell) 3 and gnome terminal 3.4.1.1.
I am a user of both gnome-terminal and midnight commander. As default gnome-terminal has always used F10 (which I need while using mc), to opening the top menu. So was this time.

I would like to be able to click on SSH links that look like ssh://user@servername and have a gnome-terminal open that runs SSH inside of it.
After reading up on the XDG stuff I did the following:
I created a shell script in $HOME/bin/ssh-terminal with the following:
#!/bin/sh
dest=${1#ssh://}
gnome-terminal -e "ssh $dest" &
This works from the command line.
I created $HOME/.local/share/
Looks like it is easy to log keystrokes of all processes of the same user. A basic keylogger is 'xinput'.
xinput test-xi2
The command generates log of all key-presses. Unfortunately, this includes passwords in gnome-terminal. Googling suggested that grabbing keyboard may prevent other windows from capturing key strokes.
Is there a way to prevent XI2 logging in gnome-terminal?
Whenever I try to run a program from gnome gui, I get message
Authenticated is required to run the Gparted Partition Editor
The same goes for all programs that need root permission and I try to run from 'System tools' in my gnome-fallback.
However the same user can become root in gnome terminal with no problem (I added the user to sudoers).
I'm trying to launch one command in a new gnome-terminal window from a shell script, and it seems that my .bashrc file doesn't get sourced when calling gnome-terminal and executing a command:
gnome-terminal -t "my title" -e vim
But it does when launching gnome-terminal alone:
gnome-terminal -t "my title"
(for testing purposes, just add a echo "something" to the end of the .bashrc)
I also tr
I need to run an application automatically when Ubuntu starts. I've got this app running without opening the terminal. However, this application displays some information in a terminal window and, therefore, I need that the app runs strictly after opening gnome-terminal (automatically). To this end I've tried to create a script file in init.d as it is explained here.
You can manually slow down the disk so it is quiet by terminal command
'eject -x 4' Where the number can be from 4 to 48 or whatever speed your player can spin the disk. This has to be done everytime you insert a disk.
'eject -x 8' is more silent nice when playing disk.
How can the system be set to do this automatically?
Say when opening VLC etc...
Hi,
I recently moved /home to a seperate partition. Everything works fine except that when I open a terminal it starts me off in / instead of /home/user. I looked through some previous threads but could not see anything to help.
Any thoughts?
