In Ubuntu Linux what is the Terminal command to close a window?

Q. I have an application that opens at launch to allow me to use my Gamepad to control the mouse and arrow keys. This application also opens a window so I would like a terminal command that I can program to close the window at startup. Thank you.

A. Your question is worded a bit oddly but I think you're looking for System > Preferences > Startup Applications

=) hope that helps!

Using a virtual connection to Linux terminal, how can I open the Linux text editor?
Q. I'm virtually connected to a linux terminal. In the terminal window I type the following commands
tcsh
cd vlsi1/Lab3
ls
pico TxFIFOtest
(these commands open an editor inside the terminal, the editor is terrible though and I will be making numerous changes to this. Is there a way to open this with a text editor?)

A. u are using tc shell?

any shell have ENV values, editor are en ENV key for linux editor, in debian/venenux the editor by default are nano or mcedit-debian, the first acts as normal ecitor like MSDOS, the second atc as special editor using IBM's F1 to F12 keys

install vim (not vi) and cam note diference, also can install nano, nano its more for ignorant command line real linux users

if u wish use graphical editor only use sux (venenux and sidux only) or install sux (apt-get install sux) and ejecute graphical editor as: "sux kwrite" or "sux leafpad" when runs, sux ask for root admin password (or for user password if u are in sudoers file)

i recomend install linux venenux+massenkoh plugs due u seems to be a non linux user, ubuntu are not good choice for system training

How to make my own dedicated linux server?

Q. I would like to know how to do it like those websites that offers some like "OVH", but one that doesn't consume a lot of power (that mean no screen and all) but that i can acces through filezilla and that i can ssh so i can type codes directly in the terminal. Thanks for you answer, if you don't know how to do it, can you just tell me what is the name of doing this ?

A. First, install Ubuntu Server. Then, when it is up and running, look for and install LAMP. LAMP includes everything you need to run a web server. Once set up and installed, it's very easy to activate ftp and ssh on the Ubuntu server. LAMP typically has options to enable and configure these since it knows you're going to use them. There are many many detailed guides on how to install LAMP. The Ubuntu Server installation is pretty straightforward so no guide really needed for that, but there are some out there if you need it. Too much to type in here so just Google it. You start the LAMP install by a simple apt-get command.

how can i delete files i installed with the linux terminal?
Q. i just now installed ubuntu and first i installed eclipse with the terminal (sodu apt get) command, it was taking way to long to install so i canceld it and realized i could install eclipse with synaptics.

so my question is first, where do the files go installed via terminal if i cancel it and if i dont.

also i installed ubuntu yesterday on a 74gig partition and now i only have 11gigs left... why? i didnt do anything yet except install a bunch of php editors. (5)

A. Since you seem to like to use the terminal:
To delete files that you installed with apt use
sudo apt-get remove --purge name_of_package
Adding --purge to the command will remove any config files also; a really complete removal of any package.
If you have some file that you want to delete use the rm command.
Synaptic will not install programs any faster than apt-get, it is just a gui where you can easily also search for programs.
If you install a program with synaptic or apt-get the files will go to /var/cache/apt/archives, whether you cancel or not.
To see what is on your hard drive you can use konqueror (gui) or the du command in the terminal. See the last link.
Be careful about deleting "strange" files. You can use synaptic to see what is installed on your computer and get a short description of the program. To get info about a particular file use the commands:
apt-cache show name_of_file
apt-cache depends name_of_file
Good luck

How do i open a terminal on linux ubuntu?
Q. Okay, so im trying to download itunes on my computer. i already installed wine, but now i need to open a terminal window and i dont know how?
Help?

A. Take a look at aTunes which is the closest open source equivalent to iTunes http://www.atunes.org/

Select the deb.package

INSTALLING SOFTWARE ON UBUNTU

The use of the Terminal in most cases is not needed as Ubuntu has the Synaptic Package Manager which allows you to easily install and remove software

Here is the Official Ubuntu Synaptic Package Manager Documentation
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto

If you do need to use the Terminal

Here is the Official Ubuntu Terminal Documentation
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal

You can Copy and Paste commands

To install individually downloaded deb. files then Ubuntu has the GDebi Package Installer (built in to Ubuntu) which automatically starts up when you try to open a deb.file

How to invoke the Linux Terminal in LINUX when a process becomes unresponsive?

Q. If a process becomes unresponsive in WINDOWS then we press "alt+ctrl+del" to invoke the task manager & then terminate the process.Is there any similar way to invoke the Linux Terminal so that we can end a process by the 'kill' command when it becomes unresponsive?Any help would be gladly accepted.

A. Whether you are in an x-windows session or working at the console command line, an equivalent in Linux would be to select a new virtual terminal using the key sequence CTRL-ALT-F-Key.

For example, from the console, CRTL-ALT-F1 will open virtual tty1, if it has not been disabled by configuration. Once in the screen for the virtual terminal is displayed you can log in with appropriate permissions to use 'ps' to determine the process that you need to kill as you would normally do as indicated in your question. To return to the console use CTRL-ALT-F7.

For completeness, if you are at the command line you could begin a program by running it in the background, so you can do other things during it's execution. If a program that is running, but which is not in the background, is stuck your first step should be to try CTRL-Z, to terminate it. If that fails try a virtual terminal.

As has been suggested, you could also access the system remotely if you have other systems on the network that could be used. Doing so, requires appropriate services, such as 'sshd', be running in advance of the problem. Similarly, you should experiment with the virtual terminal feature in advance of a problem to assure that it has not been disabled and so you can see how it works.

How do I connect to my Linux computer?
Q. I want to be able to use some remote console to connect to my Linux terminal and send commands, what kind of server do I need? Is there a client for Windows?
I downloaded PuTTy but what server do I need? Midnight Commander is just a file manager, I need full access to my terminal.
Ok, I found telnetd. Thanks all !

A. if you just want to access a terminal session then configure SSH and use PuTTY to connect. If you want full control of your Linux desktop, then use VNC (comes in both Server and Client components and is cross platform - so yes, it does support Windows as a client)

How do i get color back into my linux terminal?
Q. I recently changed the color of my linux terminal from the standard black text and white background to a black background and light blue text. When the default colors were used directories and certain file types would show up in different colors, but when i changed the scheme it took away the colors. is there any way to get them back with a command or setting? Thanks in advance.

A. You will want to set the environment variable LS_COLORS in your .bash_profile or .bashrc file.

Check out the following web site that explains the variable and all of its parameters:

Are you suppose to use different linux distros if you have different purposes?
Q. Or can all linux distro do almost the same if you know the terminal command or scripts? For example if i wanted to do some penetration test with back track but i want to surf the wow anonymously with incognito? Do i have to do them seperately or can i kinda combine them together in one.

A. Terminal commands in almost all Linux distributions are the same commands. Penetration Testing (Forensic) Linux distributions do not make a very good desktop, for everyday use. It doesn't make very much sense to do it on your own hard drive. In most Linux distributions, I believe in the package management program you can find anonymous browsing software to install. And yes one Linux in general can be over bloated with software to your desire.

How can I use hping3 to do a port scan?
Q. When I used Hping3 in linux or windows it can only scan a localhost. Is it possible to scan a remote network? What is the Linux and Windows terminal command for portscanning remote networks?

A. There's no universal program for scanning networks. The best tool to do this from a command line would probably be nmap. nmap is not included with Windows and is not standard in all Linux distributions, but is available in most repositories.

To return to the console use CTRL-ALT-F7.

For completeness, if you are at the command line you could begin a program by running it in the background, so you can do other things during it's execution. If a program that is running, but which is not in the background, is stuck your first step should be to try CTRL-Z, to terminate it. If that fails try a virtual terminal.

As has been suggested, you could also access the system remotely if you have other systems on the network that could be used. Doing so, requires appropriate services, such as 'sshd', be running in advance of the problem. Similarly, you should experiment with the virtual terminal feature in advance of a problem to assure that it has not been disabled and so you can see how it works.

How do I connect to my Linux computer?
Q. I want to be able to use some remote console to connect to my Linux terminal and send commands, what kind of server do I need? Is there a client for Windows?
I downloaded PuTTy but what server do I need? Midnight Commander is just a file manager, I need full access to my terminal.
Ok, I found telnetd. Thanks all !

A. if you just want to access a terminal session then configure SSH and use PuTTY to connect. If you want full control of your Linux desktop, then use VNC (comes in both Server and Client components and is cross platform - so yes, it does support Windows as a client)

In Ubuntu Linux what is the Terminal command to close a window?
Q. I have an application that opens at launch to allow me to use my Gamepad to control the mouse and arrow keys. This application also opens a window so I would like a terminal command that I can program to close the window at startup. Thank you.

A. Your question is worded a bit oddly but I think you're looking for System > Preferences > Startup Applications

=) hope that helps!

Using a virtual connection to Linux terminal, how can I open the Linux text editor?

Q. I'm virtually connected to a linux terminal. In the terminal window I type the following commands
tcsh
cd vlsi1/Lab3
ls
pico TxFIFOtest
(these commands open an editor inside the terminal, the editor is terrible though and I will be making numerous changes to this. Is there a way to open this with a text editor?)

A. u are using tc shell?

any shell have ENV values, editor are en ENV key for linux editor, in debian/venenux the editor by default are nano or mcedit-debian, the first acts as normal ecitor like MSDOS, the second atc as special editor using IBM's F1 to F12 keys

install vim (not vi) and cam note diference, also can install nano, nano its more for ignorant command line real linux users

if u wish use graphical editor only use sux (venenux and sidux only) or install sux (apt-get install sux) and ejecute graphical editor as: "sux kwrite" or "sux leafpad" when runs, sux ask for root admin password (or for user password if u are in sudoers file)

i recomend install linux venenux+massenkoh plugs due u seems to be a non linux user, ubuntu are not good choice for system training

Q. I am a beginner to Linux commands. I use SSH to connect to a Linux server. What command can I use to save a text file on the server to my desktop? Example?

A. From your desktop, fire up a terminal, or use Cygwin if you're under Windows (make sure you have installed the openssh packages) :

scp <your_user_name>@<server_name>:<path to remote file> <path to local dir/file>

Enter your password, and you're done :)

How to invoke the Linux Terminal in LINUX when a process becomes unresponsive?

Q. If a process becomes unresponsive in WINDOWS then we press "alt+ctrl+del" to invoke the task manager & then terminate the process.Is there any similar way to invoke the Linux Terminal so that we can end a process by the 'kill' command when it becomes unresponsive?Any help would be gladly accepted.

A. Whether you are in an x-windows session or working at the console command line, an equivalent in Linux would be to select a new virtual terminal using the key sequence CTRL-ALT-F-Key.

For example, from the console, CRTL-ALT-F1 will open virtual tty1, if it has not been disabled by configuration. Once in the screen for the virtual terminal is displayed you can log in with appropriate permissions to use 'ps' to determine the process that you need to kill as you would normally do as indicated in your question. To return to the console use CTRL-ALT-F7.

For completeness, if you are at the command line you could begin a program by running it in the background, so you can do other things during it's execution.

How do I upload a folder recursively via SSH through a linux terminal?

Q. The problem is quite simple actually. I have a folder in my desktop which I want to be able to upload to my server via SSH. I want to be able to do that using only the linux terminal. Thanks
I don't know about import/export functions. I just want to upload via SSH. I know it's possible, I just don't know how.

A. See the SCP command (syntax in source link). It copies files over ssh. As you can see, it has an option to put an entire folder over at once.

Alternatively, there's SFTP (secure-ftp) which tunnels a ftp connection through ssh (valid only if the target server also has ftp service in addition to ssh).

How can I restore my laptop to factory default with Linux Ubuntu?
Q. Im currently using Linux Ubuntu as my OS on my HP laptop and want to restore to factory settings as I prefer using windows 7 for the tasks that I have to perform on my laptop, Ive tried using the system restore when starting the up the laptop but this just causes Ubuntu to load as normal. Is there any terminal commands or any other way to restore the laptop without having to go and create a windows installation disk?

A. If your computer did not come with Win7 and other disks (drivers and utilities), you should have written whatever system restore or utilites disks and backed up everything before doing much of anything with the computer.

Whether you can restore Win7 depends whether it is still there and you just need to restore the master boot record (can you boot to Win7 from the grub menu?). If Win7 still works see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1527905

If Win7 does not run, you may need to order disks from your computer manufacturer.

How to save file to desktop using Linux commands.?
Q. I am a beginner to Linux commands. I use SSH to connect to a Linux server. What command can I use to save a text file on the server to my desktop? Example?

A. From your desktop, fire up a terminal, or use Cygwin if you're under Windows (make sure you have installed the openssh packages) :

scp <your_user_name>@<server_name>:<path to remote file> <path to local dir/file>

Enter your password, and you're done :)

Are you suppose to use different linux distros if you have different purposes?
Q. Or can all linux distro do almost the same if you know the terminal command or scripts? For example if i wanted to do some penetration test with back track but i want to surf the wow anonymously with incognito? Do i have to do them seperately or can i kinda combine them together in one.

A. Terminal commands in almost all Linux distributions are the same commands. Penetration Testing (Forensic) Linux distributions do not make a very good desktop, for everyday use. It doesn't make very much sense to do it on your own hard drive. In most Linux distributions, I believe in the package management program you can find anonymous browsing software to install. And yes one Linux in general can be over bloated with software to your desire.
