I have created a script to modify my touchpad settings, based on the   I've done the following:  synclient -l &gt; touchsettings   to create a file named 'touchsettings' containing all my touchpad's settings.  Then I used gedit to edit the settings as I want them, as well as adding a hash bang to the start of the script. I ran  chmod u+x touchsettings   to give the file execute permission.  The script does what it's supposed to if I then run ./touchsettings  But when I add the script to startup using the Startup Applications GUI (Add > Browse, then browse to file location of touchsettings), then restart the computer, touchpad functionality stops working entirely.  Why does this script work fine when calling ./touchsettings, whereas it breaks the touchpad when called at startup?
I have a simple one line command which works perfectly in terminal, but does not work in the "Startup Applications" app thing.  The line of code is : xmodmap /home/seph/Code/Ubuntu\ Scripts/Xmodmap  It's not that much of a hassle to copy it from "Startup Applications" and paste it into terminal, but I don't really get why it isn't working.  I followed someone else's instructions to do it in the first place, so maybe I did something wrong?  In any case, wouldn't it be the obvious and logical assumption that it just types whatever you put in it into Terminal?

However, at least two online dictionaries also give the form 'shier' as being acceptable:  and . On an English language  I came across a reference to British (shyer) vs. American (shier) spelling. But an Ngram chart shows that even in American English 'shyer' is much more used.  My problem is that I've been told that it is definitely wrong, but if it's in dictionaries then... has there been a change to what is wrong?   P.S.: Why not use "which"? What to use then? Invertibility of the Product of Two Matrices I have shown that if two $n\times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$ are invertible, then $AB$ is also invertible. I am having problems though with showing that $(AB)^{-1}=B^{-1} A^{-1}$. I thought of using their left-multiplication transformations but it seems that this is only associative and not commutative so I can reverse $L_A L_B$ I get this error whenever I try to install programs using the terminal:  home@ubuntu:~$ apt-get install myunity E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?   Also I'm unable to install updates using the terminal. Today I downloaded Ubuntu for my laptop. It runs great from a bootable USB, but when I tried to install it, I got the following error message: The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk:  [Errno 5] Input/output error  This is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard    disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower   speed, to clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are often    available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard disk   is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler   environment.     I tried everything to install it on my laptop including redownloading the Ubuntu ISO image, but nothing worked.

Quantifiers "most" vs. "most of" Copying and pasting features using PyQGIS I have created a table join between two shapefiles which I've named 'OSMM' and 'Mastermap'. I want to copy and paste all features (polygons) without a match from the target layer ('Mastermap') into the parent shapefile ('OSMM'). I can't find any up-to-update code for QGIS 3.6. Here is my code so far: #1. loads the SHP files uri = 'C:/Users/xx/Downloads/OSMM.shp' vlayer = iface.addVectorLayer(uri,&quot;&quot;,&quot;ogr&quot;) uri = 'C:/Users/xx/Downloads/Mastermap.shp' vlayer = iface.addVectorLayer(uri,&quot;&quot;,&quot;ogr&quot;)  #2. Joins &quot;InvoiceNum&quot; from OSMM to Mastermap layerToJoin = QgsProject().instance().mapLayersByName('OSMM')[0] target = QgsProject().instance().mapLayersByName('Mastermap')[0] myJoin = QgsVectorLayerJoinInfo() myJoin.setJoinFieldName('InvoiceNum') myJoin.setTargetFieldName('InvoiceNum') myJoin.setJoinLayerId(layerToJoin.id()) myJoin.setUsingMemoryCache(True) myJoin.setJoinLayer(layerToJoin) myJoin.setJoinFieldNamesSubset(['InvoiceNum']) target.addJoin(myJoin)  #3. Selects NULL features from Mastermap params = { 'EXPRESSION' : '\&quot;OSMM_InvoiceNum\&quot; is NULL', 'INPUT' : 'C:/Users/xx/Downloads/Mastermap.shp', 'METHOD' : 0 } processing.run(&quot;qgis:selectbyexpression&quot;, params)  So how do I perform the PyQGIS version of Ctrl+C on 'Mastermap' and Ctrl+V into 'OSMM'? Presumably I will then need to use the following code: #5.

Adding space around section title for in-register in KOMA-script context Connect Error (2054) - mysql_old_password issue still not solved Can Ubuntu 32-bit access 8GB RAM? I need to use a large software package (Xojo) that requires the 32-bit architecture to run. Try as I might, I can't seem to install the 32-bit libraries on my 64-bit installation of 15.04.  I don't have a problem running a 32-bit version of Ubuntu (I'm only using this computer for Xojo) but the computer has 8GB of RAM and I'd like to be able to use it all. Is there a way to utilise all 8GB of RAM with a 32-bit Ubuntu install? Does Ubuntu do this out of the box? Is it possible to run Drush without root? I run a Linux server that is administered by a friend of mine, and at the moment I work with Filezilla.  I've heard that Drush is a trivial installation: it seems to require no configuration and work out of the box.   However, it looks for configuration in several places:     Drush installation directory,  the home directory (as .drushrc.php),    root directory of a Drupal installation, and  site directory of a   Drupal installation.  Since the configuration files are just PHP   scripts, they can  contain any PHP code that you would like to have   executed on startup of Drush.  one could for instance call ini_set()   to set the value of a PHP configuration option.   and the configuration file /opt/drush/drushrc.php with following content:    # Allow Drush to use 128 MB of memory. Use -1 for no limit. ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');   I see this is necessary because PHP's default is too low, but I'm not sure if I need higher-level privileges because of it.  Do I have to have root-level permissions on the server, or am I able to work with Drush without them?   Update:  As far as i understand this, i only have to ask my admin to get some more privileges (permissions)Note according to BetaRides answer i need to have more than only the access-data that the FileZilla needs - that are provided for the filezilla! Guess so - but i don not need root-permissions.  btw - i have secure-shell-access (ssh2 access) guess that this is enough -With that i can setup a sftp-connection to the server with filezilla just lemme know - if i can use the exactly same data for the shell access (with the command line tool=?!= How to set static IP address?
