startup synergy client before login (xfce)
02/06/2014
Want to start synergy before the login screen?
Create a file in : /usr/local/bin
1 2 3 4 5 |
#!/bin/bash # # START SYNERGY CLIENT # synergyc 192.168.1.33 |
then chmod +x it.
Add a line to the file in /etc/rc.local just before “exit 0” to execute the script at boot and before the login screen.

Connect to Google cloud print with linux

So you got a linux machine and you want it to print to your google cloud printer.
Just follow this page to set it up with cups: http://www.niftiestsoftware.com/cups-cloud-print/
I used the .deb for my backboxlinux distro.

wget http://niftyrepo.niftiestsoftware.com/cups-cloud-print/packages/cupscloudprint_20140308-1_all.deb sudo dpkg -i cupscloudprint_20140308-1_all.deb sudo /usr/share/cloudprint-cups/setupcloudprint.py |
Then just follow the questions. It will ask you to open google to give the app some permissions. Google will create a code that you will have to enter.
It really is that simple
