[Solved] Simple auto-suspend script?

I'm looking for a simple solution to auto-suspend (ram/disk) a system after a certain time of inactivity. I can find surprisingly little info for this for linux (or perhaps i'm not looking in the right places), while windows for instance has this built in for years already.
The idea is simple but maybe tricky in practice; if there is no user input for x seconds, no video/audio playing or continuous disk/network usage, suspend the system. Basically the system just needs to be idle for a certain amount of time.
Does anyone know or have a working script or utility for this, or is writing one myself the only solution? The simplest approach i can think of is a combination of checking user idle time (with 'w') and sysload, though it might be necessary to determine a threshold for the latter to avoid simple jobs (cron etc.) producing a 0.01 sysload and thus preventing suspend.
Any other thoughts or suggestions about this?

Sorry for hijacking your thread but I tryed sleepd to suspend and lock my screen after a certain amount of time. So far it's working smoothly except when I am watching something with xbmc.
So I just set --load=1 in /etc/conf.d/sleepd but it still goes to suspend. And I verified with the key o in xbmc that the cpu load is higher than 1%. I also added "-N" as sometime I let my computer download stuff for me in the background.

Database auto-startup script

Hi Team,
How can I check whether the auto startup script is scheduled for the database after the server reboot
OS version:Linux server1 2.6.18-194.11.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Jul 24 05:45:06 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
DB version :11.2.0.2
/etc/oratab entry is set to Y.
But the database did not startup after the server reboot. How to verify that the auto startup script is available?

Auto accept script error

Any idea why ichat 5 gives me an error on the auto accept script every time I run it ? I want to leave the auto accept on permanently but its not letting me.

Click on the App in Applications.
Do a Get Info from the File Menu of the Finder (or the keystrokes listed)
If you have a Core 2 Duo Processor it will offer the option so start in 32 Bit mode.

[SOLVED]Cannot get panel script to load(bspwm)

Hi all, I am new to arch linux and just started using bspwm, have used xmonad for a few months or so. I am trying to base my desktop on windelicato's config (which is incredible imo and you can see it at his github) but am having trouble using the scripts from it. In particular, I don't get the panel that I can see in his screenshot. I will post all relevant files that I know of, tell me if I have missed some!

added that line to xinitrc, logged out and in and the bar starts now, and displays this
The uppercase roman numerals should be on my second monitor, which is on the right(not pictured). The bar extends the whole way across both monitors, which it should, but as I said the uppercase numbers should be on the righthand monitor, and the current window title should be in the middle of each monitor(or just the one with an active/selected window, I am not sure which but I know it shouldn't be stretched across both).
Also, if I try to run the dzen2 part of the case instance, I get
[jordan@jordanpc-linux ~]$ panel dzen2
/home/jordan/scripts/panel: line 6: : No such file or directory
/home/jordan/scripts/panel: line 7: : No such file or directory
cat: : No such file or directory
dzen: error, cannot allocate color ''
Making it the default within the file causes bspwm to start without a bar at all. I don't really mind whether I end up using bar or dzen2, as long as one works. I would however appreciate fixing both so I can learn why they aren't working.

Auto suspend on idle without Gnome or KDE? [SOLVED]

This may be a stupid question but I've never had to actually mess with this before on a system without Gnome or KDE installed (they have their own utilities which tends to make this easy) and I've spent an hour researching to no avail.
I'm looking for a way to force the entire computer to automatically suspend to RAM after 30 minutes of no keyboard or mouse activity. I already have pm-utils and xscreensaver installed and 'pm-suspend' already works great when I call it manually but what I'm missing is a way to detect the idle and actually call 'pm-suspend' automatically. I do have HAL and udev. Of course it runs X too but there is no D.E. installed. Only various Window managers.
BTW- this is for a Desktop not a laptop if that is significant for some reason. The reason for it is basically I want this computer to suspend (to save power) at night and other times when it's not being used.
Thanks for any help you can give!

Still welcoming some help after all....
I've been attempting to use xfce4-power-manager but am having an issue where as a normal user actual power management options other than for the monitor are disabled. It works fine as root but not as a normal user.
User is a member of the power group.
Have consolekit installed.
Launching WM from .xinitrc (No Display manager such as slim) using 'exec ck-launch-session /usr/local/bin/wm'
Anything I am missing for why this wouldn't work?

[SOLVED] Simple Shell Scripting Question - Echo and Execute?

I've got a bash script which has many different commands it executes in a row. Each time the script executes one of the commands, it outputs what it is doing to the screen:
echo "cp -r home new"
cp -r home new
echo "mv testfile new/."
mv testfile new/.
I am just wondering if there is a function to execute a command and output it at the same time. Something like...
echoandexecute("cp -r home new")
echoandexecute("mv testfile new/.")
Last edited by tony5429 (2008-08-27 19:59:04)

Otherwise you can define it yourself:
echoandexecute() {
echo $1
$1
echoandexecute "cp -r home new"

How to solve the auto word break problem in Arabic language Flex project

Hi, I'm using Flex SDK 3.5 to develop a game in Arabic. Now I have a problem with the auto word break on the TextArea Control.
The output looks like this (Sorry I can't type arabic, so I use English instead)
I don't know any A
rabic text
The expected outpit should be
I don't know any
Arabic text
My settings of the textarea are fine in English version games. But just didn't work in Arabic. Any idea how to solve this problem? Thanks.

Hi Rodger,
Sorry to reopen this thread again. I was puzzled by the data format in Motion-DDK.
From the Motion-DDK, if u32, i32 and f64 data are passed to and from the controller, a specific format must be followed as below:
u32:
u32 cmddata[x] = (WORD) (u32data ?16);
cmddata[x + 1] = (u16) u32data;
i32:
i32 cmddata[x] = (WORD) (i32data ?16);
cmddata[x + 1] = (i16) i32data;
f64:
f64—big endian order cmddata[x] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [3];
cmddata[x + 1] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [2];
cmddata[x + 2] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [1];
cmddata[x + 3] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [0];
f64—little endian order cmddata[x] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [0];
cmddata[x + 1] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [1];
cmddata[x + 2] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [2];
cmddata[x + 3] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [3];
My first question: is the "?" symbol means the >> (shift operator) or something else?
The second question is: if "?" means ">>" in this list, all the u32 and i32 data are always transferred in big-endian order. Is it the only correct way to deliver the i32 and u32 data? Or I can pass the u32 and i32 either in little-order or big-order depending on my platform?
The last one: could you provide a feasible C code on how to convert the f64 data to u16?
I first followed the format in the list to convert the f64 data, but met with a lot of compiler errors in VC++. After checked with MSDN, it is said the convert process is double(f64)->long(i32)->unsigned short(u16). But the decimal part of double will be truncated during converting to long...
So, could you help me with some very simple sample code on the convert process?
Thank you for your support!

The first thing I did was to disable systemd's acpi features by setting /etc/systemd/logind.conf as follows:
# This file is part of systemd.

# under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by

HandleLidSwitch=ignore
#PowerKeyIgnoreInhibited=no
#SuspendKeyIgnoreInhibited=no
#HibernateKeyIgnoreInhibited=no
#LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=yes
IdleAction=suspend
IdleActionSec=45min
However, the behavior was the same as before. I also tried setting
LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=no
but after reading man 5 logind.conf it seems that this is unnecessary (and it had no effect when I tried it).
acpid is also installed but I have commented out the contents of /etc/acpi/handler.sh as well as all the scripts in /etc/acpi/actions. I noticed that there is also a UPower daemon which was installed as a dependency and thought that it might be triggering the suspend. I tried setting
IgnoreLid=true
in /etc/UPower/UPower.conf but this also had no effect.

Any ideas on what might be causing the system to suspend when the lid is closed would be appreciated.

Since you made the complete switch to systemd, why not let systemd handle this kind of events?
I was referring to the suggestion of setting acpi=off on the kernel line. systemd can only run a few preset actions on events like lid close (e.g. suspend, poweroff, ignore, etc.). I need to run custom scripts. Also, for some reason I still do not fully understand, it was not working properly. The log in my original post seems to show that it was initiating the suspend.

progandy wrote:Yes, it is easier, but my laptop should react differently depending on the power source. With AC power lid-switch locks the screen, in battery mode it suspends. That is impossible with systemd.
Yes you need something like laptop-mode-tools for that, I know systemd will not do that, for now.
But that is not the issue here!, the issue here is that the llid-switch-button' shouldn't be used at all.
For as far as possible I would still recommend systemd to handle your events!, but it's your decision finally!
You need acpid for that not laptop-mode-tools. This is exactly what apcid is for --- running user scripts on ACPI events.
Anyway, I finally have this fixed though I still have no idea what the problem was. I ran out of ideas on how to fix it and #archlinux didn't know either so I went the painful but sure route. I did full reinstall and reinstalled all programs. logind was still behaving as this point (not ignoring it's logind.conf file as it seemed to be before the reinstall) after this so I concluded that the packages installed were not the problem at least with their default configs. After that, I gradually restored the config files I cared about while testing to see if logind still worked correctly. Contrary, to what I expected it never broke and I was able to restore all modified configs and get correct behavior.
I suspect there was some old out of date config file somewhere that was causing the problem but it's hard to say which one it was. I could probably figure it out with a bit more experimentation but have already spent enough time fixing this...
In case anyone else needs a similar configuration, the relevant files are as follows. This sets up the system to lock whenever systemd executes a suspend action. It also sets up acpid to suspend on lid close.
Make sure you have installed acpid and enabled it to run at startup.

I can't get a simple "do shell script" in AppleScript to work!

Hi All,
I can get simple commands like "do shell script "ls"" or "do shell script "ps"" to work in AppleScript, but I cannot get something like "do shell script "python -V"" to work. (yes, my shell script says: do shell script "python -V" (no double quotes!))
This is driving me nuts!
Can anyone help?
- Jon

python -V appears to direct its output to stderr. Try
do shell script "python -V 2>&1"

Simple button navigation script

This question is so simple-I can't really find the answer
anywhere, but as a complete NooB I have no idea how to make this
work. I have a nested movie 1 layer down from main stage that has
several navigation buttons that move to different main stage
labeled frames. I get an 1120 error because I am somehow not
calling them out on the script. I have named the instances..so
that's not the problem. I think I just need to somehow direct the
script to the nested location. If I move the buttons to the main
stage I get no errors and it all works perfectly. Please help.
Here's a sample script for the button:

ok..not to mix things up but here's the instance name of
button I'm currently working on: "buttonbio".
It's located in a mc called "movFilmbackground". I'm trying
to get the playhead to go to the frame label "bio" on the main
stage.
If I put the first code in...on the main stage at the
beginning of the timeline, nothing happens when I try the button...
If I put the second code in.. I get 1120 error.."access of
undefined property buttonbio" & 1180 error "call to possibly
undefined method movFilmbackgound"

[SOLVED for now] Suspend-to-RAM broken - immediately turns on again

Hi everyone,
Susped-to-RAM was working flawlessly on my lenovo IdeaPad S12 Netbook until recently:
When I Suspend-to-RAM (via KDE) the system apparently suspends correctly but then it instantly turns back on. So the problem is not that I cannot suspend but rather that the system turns back on immediately after suspending. Usually the system could only be turned back on by pressing a button on the keyboard or the power button (not by moving the mouse or opening the laptop lid).
I unplugged all attached devices, including mouse, keyboard, power supply and network but that doesn't help.
I'm pretty clueless what could cause this and would be happy if someone could point me in some direction. This used to work until recently but I don't know what update broke it.

Update:
The system stays asleep when I unload the ehci_hcd and ohci_hcd before suspending (unloading just ehci_hcd as suggested on other sites doesn't work).
So some kind of usb device seems to trigger the wakeup. As I said before I don't have any usb devices plugged in, though.
Since unloading the usb drivers is not very convenient I would really like to find out what exactly causes the wakeup. I don't really have a clue where to start, though.
I use a script to unload ehci_hcd automatically when I suspend (my issue is slightly different, it doesn't immediately come back, it just doesn't finish suspending and gets stuck on a black screen)
I'd imagine a script someone similar to this would work:

Simple date stamp script

Hello Adobe Community!
I have 100+ photos to which I need to add a date stamp. Is there a simple script to do this? I'd like to make it an action too if possible, and it's worth noting that I have no idea how to script! There were some samples linked here but I can't for the life of me figure out how to edit them to get the desired effect.

You can't use the date from either the profile folder or NTUSER.DAT as a reliable indicator of when a user last logged on, if I understand what you're trying to do. The profile folder date may not be updated even when the user's profile is active;
my own profile folder on my current system hasn't been updated for fifty days, even though I've logged off and on repeatedly and rebooted the system at least once.
On the other hand, NTUSER.DAT, since it contains the user's registry hive, can be updated
at any time by a malware scanner, malicious website blocker, or registry cleaner, or (I think) by some kinds of software installation or update.
If you want to delete user profiles according to when the user last logged on, you're probably going to have to scan the security log (assuming you have security auditing enabled). Maybe a tool like
Log Parser from Microsoft is what you need.
If you're running in a domain, you should research ways to get information from Active Directory as well.

[Haskell]How to read in haskell and solve simple problems

Hello,
I'm an experienced C/C++ programmer and I would like to use Haskell to solve some problems.
But it is hard to me to write a simple way to read input from a file and analyze it, so I ask you how to do this. I didn't find how to do this around google or this forum, that's why I came to here.
Suppose we are given this problem:
"We're analyzing numbers and we want to know which numbers are even. The input consists on a number, N, and then N lines which contain a single integer. You are to say what numbers are even."
INPUT EXAMPLE:
3
1234
5555555
123044390581349287182
OUTPUT EXAMPLE:
yes
no
yes
I wrote the module that returns a string depending on if the number is even or not... But I would like to know how to repeat that function for N numbers. I don't want a superoptimized way or a strange way, I just want a simple and readable one...
In C++ i would do:
for (int i = 0; i < cases; i++)
cin >> number;
cout << analyze(number) << endl; // analyze returns a string
Can you iluminate with your knowledge, archers?
Thank you.

Well, you said that the first line has the number N, followed by N lines. Given your description the program would always test the whole file.
If you have a file with X lines and you'd only like to test N <= X lines, this should do it:
module Main where
import System.IO
import Control.Applicative
main = do
let test x = if even (read x) then "yes" else "no"
withFile "test" ReadMode $ \handle -> do
nlines <- read <$> hGetLine handle
content <- hGetContents handle
mapM_ ( putStrLn . test )
. take nlines
. lines
$ content

Auto mdx script creation

Hi I am new to MDX and am looking for a quick way to create an MDX scriopt. I have used Visual Explorer to create a report, how do I extract the MDX script?
The reason I need to do this is to create a custom query in OBIEE (10g) that make use of the output from this script.
Thanks.

Hello,
the major disadvantage acc to me is that , there is no independent check on the excise values in the invocie, if there are any errors, or values are incorrect , then the excise invocice nad has to be recreated
if the checks are in place in invoice stage, there should not be a issues
also if the values are fixed , standardised then also it helps to have auto invocie creation
hope this helps
Thanks
