/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

In Fatdog 710, I had to use the connection wizard and enable wpa, etc. every time I booted. This happened on two laptops. I checked the wpa_supplicant.conf file. The new one is only 3 lines. I tried replacing with the 620 file... (contents of /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf I commented the third line out b...

I couldn't believe how simple the solution was to cleanly exit out of libreoffice while running a presentation... :shock: Wait for it..... xdotool key Escape :lol: Not only does it end the slideshow, but it closes libreoffice! I was expecting to have to use the killall command after the xdotool comm...

Thanks for the responses guys. :D The Flat Screen TV has already been hooked up and the HDMI cable is already there. For the turning on and off the TV, I was hoping I could enable CEC then simply send a signal from the laptop to the TV; something like HDMI dev ON but it looks like I was dreaming. Wh...

I believe that the killall command is the only way to end a process without knowing the id. The problem is that it is messy. The following time libreoffice runs, it starts autorecovery of the file that was previously killed where user intervention is required to choose whether or not he or she wants...

it would be possible to a use an USB X10 transceiver to receive a command from pschedule to turn on or off a remote switch for the TV ON - OFF function. Or a similar USB infrared transmitter to control the TV also using pschedule to send the proper commands. First using a crontab to send a killall ...

CEC control of TV via HDMI Laptop (FatDog)

In the welcome center of our church, there is a flatscreen TV that is used to show announcements, directions to facilities, etc. This is done via slideshow. I have been put in charge of this. Here's what I am looking to do. I have a laptop that can be dedicated to this task running FatDog 710 that I...

Is that fast for you? Do you want it near instant? there are not much talked about boot flags but if you have over 2G RAM there are faster options built in. How ever coming from windows or other bloated linuxes that does seem fast to some, its slow to me :P Actually, the 5 to 6 second time was the ...

PHP version 5.5 needs dependency?

Just to let someone know, I installed PHP 5.5 (forgot the exact version) on 702 from the package manager and when I tried to run it, it barked about not having a dependency. Does anyone else have the same experience? I'll have to get more specific info later when I get home if needed. There is a Hia...

Hiawatha 10.4

This is the latest Hiawatha Webserver as of now. This is my first attempt at making a pet/package. Compiled on 702 with Kernel 4.4.3. It shouldn't need any dependencies. https://www.globalwarmingllc.com/files/Hiawatha-10.4-FD702-x86_64-PET.txz MD5: 5f7c4d692c55cde302a2fd6c20ecd087 Edit: 11/29/16 6:3...

I'm running an old Slacko (5.6) and it does not have a cgi-bin by default.

I am currently using XAMPP to enable PHP in my Hiawatha web server. XAMPP installs in /opt and the cgi-bin is somewhere in there.

I don't see why Banshee wouldn't work with Apache. I remember seeing something about an included .httaccess ? file having a Banshee rewrite in it in one of the readmes. I am going to stick with Hiawatha though. I would like to figure out how to get to the PhpAdmin GUI from within Hiawatha and not de...

Banshee PHP Framework by Hugo Leisink (Solved)

Slacko 5.7 Running Hiawatha 8.6 and installed PHP 5.6.20 and mysql-5.5.43 from package manager along with other dependencies.

Hiawatha is working and I believe PHP is too but I don't think I have mysql running. I think it my be a problem with the user!?

Anyway, here is an image of what I have.
