I am still trying to move functional items from my venerable old RH 7.3 system to the new 9.0-64 system. There are a couple of things that I haven't found answers to:
1. I could execute my own programs at boot time at the end of the RC list by editing the /etc/rc.local file in RH7.3. I see that Suse uses /etc/init.d for this type of thing but is there a similar file/function? I have cron to run and game servers to start up...
cron runs by default, no action needed. The best thing would be to use proper init scripts but you can also change /etc/init.d/boot.local
2. I have gotten "sudo" to work without a password by using the "visudo" program & this works fine. However, I still have to enter a password for plain ole "su". I have tried by Linux and IRIX tricks with .rhosts but this has not worked. How do I get "su" to work without a password (no, I don't want to remove the root password).
3. Using the gnome desktop, I am used to seeing the current paths as the terminal "titles". On this version, I just see "untitled" and using the menu to set it does not even work. Any ideas?
I have in my .bashrc the following: case $TERM in xterm*) PS1="\[\033]0;\u@\h:\w\007\]${PS1}" ;; esac
OK, there was 3, not a couple (2). Sue me!
Oh, BTW, I got my Asus K8V sound working, - some kind soul on here just suggested setting all of the volume controls to 100% - that worked!
