The reason I have taken the time to generate / write software in this department 12.04 is piss poor in a multi-monitor department. Lets get down to the brass tacks on this maybe they can learn a few things here all software is work in progress, please be easy:
- Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
# Multi-Monitor - Multiple monitor detection xinerama script
# Script via TheeMahn <[email protected]>
#
# This script will detect ports and monitors enabling only monitors
# that are conected and set xinerama view.
# Version Control
MULTIMONITOR="1.7.0-3"
# set colors so errors etc. stand out.

It get's much better, I have been developing an entire O/S to drop on a nas. Well now I have to be able to access the nas in order to write software for it... It has began:
- Code: Select all

#written explicitly for the Seagate GoFlex line of NAS. I am working through command switches to allow providing
# 0 information from the enduser with the same result

MOUNTPOINT='/media/NAS' # Example: /media/NAS_3TB
NASIP='192.168.0.105' # Example: 192.168.0.105
#You should not have to change any of the below.
NASUPVERSION="1.7.0-3"
# set colors so errors etc. stand out.

nasup $NASUPVERSION
=============
Usage: nasup -<-COMMAND> [option]
possible commands...
-v --version dump version info
-s --scan Scans for NAS drive on network.
-h --help this help message
Usage Scan;
nasup -s <NAS PASSWORD> [IP] [MOUNTPOINT]
Scans LAN for NAS drive on network. IP is optional, so is the
mountpoint. Not specifying a mountpoint will create one at
/media/NAS/. Not specifing an IP will scan the entire network for the NAS.
This feature makes finding the NAS much slower. Specifing an IP
is much faster.
After completion and successfully finding the NAS will optionaly add the
drive to the fstab for mounting on bootup.

Ultimate Edition 3.5 I have on the net, however is crap in comparison we are here for KDE right? Gnome is default on the one on the net that admin have access to. I am probably looking at 2 or 3 builds before a release worthy event happens. Will this software enter the mix? Probably not, it is very shaky at this point. Will it in the future? Very little doubt, it will be a part of the tm-toolz package. You ladies and gents have seen the tip of the iceburg as what this package will provide. Repomaster will be a part of the same package, i could go on in that deparment. One thing I am not looking forward to is writing the documentation.
- Repomaster auto-generated man nassup ;)
