Thread: command or application disappearing from "startup applications" list


hi,
have fresh install of ubuntu 12.04lts, , although problem not seem new, appears still unresolved...
want mount 2 ntfs partitions @ boot-up, add line
code:
/usr/bin/udisks --mount /dev/sd_name-of-my-partition
each partition, , start-up list keep last 1 added whatever do!!
welcome!!
cheers,
rv

this might cause each entry uses same program, applet "simplifies" things thinking intend replace previous startup entry..

instead, make script

code:
#!/bin/sh /usr/bin/udisks --mount /dev/sd_name-of-your-partition /usr/bin/udisks --mount /dev/sd_name-of-your-other-partition /usr/bin/udisks --mount /dev/sd_name-of-your-other-other-partition
(etc)

save script fixpartitions.sh somewhere, mark executable in file permissions dialog make startup apps call fixpartitions.sh (full path, /home/yourname/scripts/fixpartitions.sh

hello! i'm trying setup software raid on server, fail @ first step: code: root@sandnabba:/root# mdadm -c /dev/md0 -c512 -l5 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1 mdadm: no raid-devices specified. what doing wrong!? are sure -c equivalent --create? also, think need space after -c , -l options, value shouldn't command, or should have = between. @ man pages mdadm , double check spelling.

(1) firstly, download , install gtkmm windows using wine. (you have if have cross compiled app windows) https://live.gnome.org/gtkmm/mswindows (2) run these commands create proper directory structure.
