GNOME schedule

6205 · 06-Jan-2009, 11:16

I am looking for some nice GUI for CRON scheduler, this looks very good,
but i cannot find packages for openSUSE. Anybody knows some repo for
11.1 or at least compatible rpm ???

Hi
Had a quiet afternoon, if you try a search here now for gnome-schedule;
Get It

It won't be mirrored yet, but should be downloadable.

WOW! you have totaly blown me away

I tried that search before posting, but without a result..

Many thanks !!!

It looks like it time for me to learn build packages, because also
gnome-subtitles is nowhere to find for opensuse...

Hi
No worries, had to fudge a few things to get it to build. Hopefully it
works ok.

Do you have a link for the subtitles one and will see what I can do
tomorrow.

mmm...it's this app 'Gnome Subtitles | Video subtitling for the GNOME
desktop' (http://gnome-subtitles.sourceforge.net/) but it will be
propably harder to build and meantime i am using Gaupol from GNOME
community repo..

btw. don't you know which command is proper to enter into this
application to schedule pc shutdown under my regular account or like a
root?

in terminal, when i am root it is shutdown -h now or shutdown -h 1 or
so and it works, but here no even if i launch this scheduler like root,
job will be not
executed, only if i click on run task then it works...mmm...puzzling :/

Hi
Been a busy day for me today

I've had a look at the gnome-subtitles
it builds fine sofar but is barfing up on the schema files which are
taking time to debug....... I found a previous spec file from 10.3 and
also one from fc10 which helped, just had to update filename changes
and add items to get it to build on the build service.

For your shutdown issue, I'm guessing if you edit the /etc/sudoers file
(YOU MUST su - to root and use visudo !!) have a read of the man pages
for sudo and sudoers.

Also have a read on the man page for at and check the queue to ensure
you schedule has been added.

I have edited *.desktop file for gnome schedule and now it's launched
with command gnomesu /usr/bin/gnome-schedule This way it promts for root
password and runs with root privilegies. Manual clicking on Run task is
working, but scheduled launch of some command, like for example that
shutdown is propably not executed by that application itself, even if
permissions seems to be ok. Maybe it's some kind of bug in command
submitting process of gnome schedule app...hmm

Hi
You do have the at daemon running?

Code:

sudo /sbin/chkconfig atd

If it's not on, then;
sudo /sbin/chkconfig atd on

Then start it;
sudo /sbin/service atd start

Hi
If you search on gnome-subtitles, there should be an rpm there soon.
Can you install and check all is ok? There are still some patches to
add (I manually edited a couple of desktop files) to get it to build on
11.1.
