I am using this command to launch an app on my chromeOS running on stable channel 57.0.2987.146
sudo dbus-send --system --type=method_call \
--dest=org.chromium.SessionManager /org/chromium/SessionManager org.chromium.SessionManagerInterface.EnableChromeTesting boolean:true array:string:"\
--load-apps=/usr/local/edgeclient_ext,--enable-nacl,\

--start-maximized,--oobe-skip-postlogin,--vmodule=/chromeos/net/=2\,/chromeos/login/=2,--disable-gaia-services"
I was able to skip the login on ChromeOS 56. Did something change since i can no longer skip the login? .
Thanks
It turns out, the issue was with the "--enable-gpu-benchmarking" flag.
This caused a core and, to an end user, made it look like the oobe-skip-postlogin flag was not working.
After removing the “--enable-gpu-benchmarking” flag, this is working as expected.

I'm new to Elm. and I'm not good at English. So, if any ambiguous or wrong thing is there, please let me correct it.
----------- edit -----------
All my problem below is on WSL. when I'm trying on windows, all work fine. then... why elm install doesn't work on WSL? did you have any idea?
-------- problem --------
when I try to elm-test init, it doesn't work like below
$ elm-test init
Here is my plan:
Add:
elm/random 1.0.0
elm-explorations/test 1.2.2
Would you like me to update your elm.json accordingly? [Y/n]:
-- PROBLEM DOWNLOADING PACKAGE -------------------------------------------------
I was trying to download the source code for elm/random 1.0.0, so I tried to
fetch:

But my HTTP library is giving me the following error message:

internet connection have a firewall that blocks certain domains? It is usually
something like that!
but my Browser(Chrome) is working beautifully, and even in WSL (the environment that I run elm-test init command at) is too.
$ curl https://github.com/elm/random/zipball/1.0.0/
https://codeload.github.com/elm/random/legacy.zip/1.0.0<body>You are being redirected.</body></html>
then I also try again to redirect the URL

I think there's no Network Problem. My PC can connect with the repo, and I think it will be downloaded well.
I lastly tried just elm install, and that throws the same error too. it seems like Elm can't connect with the repo, even if My PC can.
$ elm install elm/random

I recently had reason to use WSL for elm development. It wasn't much fun and I'm glad to be back on Mac! What I found was that certain disk operations on WSL seemed to go very slowly and that could lead a variety of weird issues.
I was using Webstorm, which does not handle WSL well, so in the end I did everything on C: drive (rather than in /home/...) so that webstorm could run the windows version of elm-format, while my node development environment was run on the linux layer.
That's not a precise answer to your question but just to say that it can be done, but its not an ideal way to write Elm code in my experience
I had same issue and it was solved.
It was due to DNS server settings.
Create a file /etc/resolv.conf and write the following line.
nameserver 8.8.8.8
Then WSL will refer to Google Public DNS and works fine.
However, when restart WSL, the settings revert back.
Therefore, the following settings are also required.
Create a file /etc/wsl.conf and write the following line.
[network]
generateResolvConf = false
wsl --shutdown and restart WSL.

I recently saw that ChromeOS added the functionality to do split screen windows in tablet mode in the most recent dev releases. So I put my Chromebook R11 in dev mode for the first time and updated to version 62.
The flag is one of the many on this list https://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/
The only resources for actually executing these switches was http://www.chromium.org/for-testers/command-line-flags
So I tried following the steps. I went to the crosh shell with Ctrl-Alt-T. Then I typed "shell". Then "sudo su". Then I tried to modify with "sudo vim /etc/chrome_dev.conf", but it was readonly so it didn't save.
So I visited here www dot chromium dot org/chromium-os/poking-around-your-chrome-os-device and followed the steps to making changes to the filesystem and disabling rootfs verification. But the command it told me to enter just gave me an error: "make_dev_ssd.sh: ERROR: IMAGE /dev/mmcblk0 IS NOT MODIFIED."
I'm running out of ideas and resources here..
make_dev_ssd.sh is how you disable rootfs verification and modify files in the rootfs. If that's not working, that might be a bug in that script that should be reported & fixed upstream (e.g. https://crbug.com/new).
That said, are you sure you need to pass a command line flag ? Look at chrome://flags and see if the feature you want to access is available there. Many command line flag is also available on that page.
Try this:
sudo su
cp /etc/chrome_dev.conf /usr/local/
mount --bind /usr/local/chrome_dev.conf /etc/chrome_dev.conf
echo "--arc-availability=officially-supported " >> /etc/chrome_dev.conf
I use tmux (tmux 1.8) from Ubuntu 14.04.
I wanted to configure it a bit via ~/.tmux.conf. But whatever I set inside this file my tmux session looks the same. Then I tried a fresh new /etc/tmux.conf but I still get the same display.
It seems that my config is hardcoded and that I cannot change it.
If I remove these two files (~/.tmux.conf and /etc/tmux.conf) my tmux session is still the same. Tmux runs but I can not configure it. But it should be so simple...
Does anybody have already seen this? And how I could solve that? Do I need to compile a fresh new release of tmux?
Today, I have more details :
on one machine it works as expected. It's OK. But I did not changed anything! Strange...
But on another machine (also running Ubuntu same release and up2date like the first machine) it does not work.
The file /etc/tmux.conf does not exist on none of these 2 machines. I put this little config file (~/.tmux.conf) :
# start Window Numbering at 2
set -g base-index 2
When I launch tmux on this second machine, window numbering starts at 0. On the first machine with the same config file, it behaves correctly : it starts at 2.
I'm going crazy!
After you make changes to ~/.tmux.conf make sure tmux sources them with the tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf shell command.
Try removing all sessions before running tmux. I have noticed that if you have sessions still running, tmux will still load the previous .tmux.config file.
Executing tmux kill-server can stop the server and then try to run the server again using tmux command.
Please note that after killing the server you will lose all open sessions / tabs.
I am having a problem getting CutyCapt to work with SSL URLs, I have the most recent version of CutyCapt (CutyCapt.cpp 10 2013-07-14 21:57:37Z), it works perfect with all non-SSL URLs, when I try to grab a URL with SSL using the following command:
./xvfb-run ./CutyCapt --min-width=1280 --min-height=720 --max-wait=6000 \
--url="https://apple.com" --out="testssl.jpg"
I get the following error:
QPainter::begin: Paint device returned engine == 0, type: 3
QPainter::setRenderHint: Painter must be active to set rendering hints
QPainter::setBrush: Painter not active
QPainter::pen: Painter not active
QPainter::setPen: Painter not active
QPainter::end: Painter not active, aborted
./xvfb-run: line 171: kill: (6557) - No such process
Note: when I run it with no HTTPS, it runs fine:
./xvfb-run ./CutyCapt --min-width=1280 --min-height=720 --max-wait=6000 \
--url="http://apple.com" --out="testssl.jpg"
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
For anyone else stumbling upon this like me.
Install Qt5 (you're going to need it). You're going to run into several package issues, just google each error and you'll fix them(you'll be back on StackOverflow several times).
After that, install the latest CutyCapt, and run it with the --insecure parameter. This worked for me on Ubuntu 14.04.
I'm trying to build a Webkit Kiosk on a Raspberry Pi.
I found a good start at: https://github.com/pschultz/kiosk-browser
The things I want to do:
1) Start the kiosk without logging in (with inittab?)
Peter Schultz pointed out adding the following line:
1:2345:respawn:/usr/bin/startx -e /usr/bin/browser http://10.0.0.5/zfs/monitor tty1 /dev/tty1 2>&1
But he did not explain the steps to make this work (for noobs).
What I did is add his code to a personal git repository and cloned this repo to /usr/bin/kiosk and sudo apt-get install libwebkit-dev and sudo make.
The line to add to inittab will be:
1:2345:respawn:/usr/bin/startx -e /usr/bin/kiosk/browser http://my-kiosk-domain.com tty1 /dev/tty1 2>&1
If I do this, I generate a loop or some kind...
If you want to automatically load a browser full screen in kiosk mode every time you turn on the rpi you can add one of these two lines to the file /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
#chromium --kiosk --incognito www.google.it
#midori -i 120 -e Fullscreen -a www.google.it -p
The first is for chromium and the latter is for midori, the rpi default lightweight browser.
Hint : Since we will use the rpi as a kiosk we want to prevent the screen from going black and disable the screensaver. Edit the autostart file:
sudo pico /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
find the following line and comment it using a # (it should be located at the bottom)
##xscreensaver -no-splash
and append the following lines
#xset s off
#xset -dpms
#xset s noblank
Save, reboot.

The upvoted answer suggest to run LXDE for it. You could also do it without such a heaver desktop enviorment. You could just start midori or chromium in an X session:
xinit /usr/bin/midori -e Fullscreen -a http://www.examples.com/
xinit chromium --kiosk http://www.examples.com/
Sometimes Fullscreen mode of midori is not working as expected and midori is not using whole screen. In these cases you could map it inside a very simple window manager like MatchBox to get real fullscreen. Due to xinit you have to wrap everything in a shell script.
#!/bin/sh
matchbox-window-manager &
midori -e Fullscreen -a http://dev.mobilitylab.org/TransitScreen/screen/index/11
Autostart could be done simply be using /etc/rc.local.
More information concerning screensaver issues and an automated restart could be found here: https://github.com/MobilityLab/TransitScreen/wiki/Raspberry-Pi#running-without-a-desktop
Chromium has a dependency problem on some debian derivate for arm architecture. For Cubian you find the bug report here. I am not sure if you could install chromium on latest Raspbian without problem.
But I really could recommend midori. It's very fast and support for modern web technologies is very good. As Chromium it is using webkit as rendering engine. If you miss some html5 / css3 features consider an update of libwebkitgtk (for example by using package of debian testing).
It's possible you haven't set the DISPLAY environment variable.
Try:
export DISPLAY=:0
/usr/bin/startx /usr/bin/browser
Or, browser can also take a display argument (so you don't need the environment variable):
/usr/bin/startx /usr/bin/browser :0
This works for me on Raspbian from a standard terminal shell (I'm logged in over SSH).
Updated for the current version of Raspbian (with Pixel desktop) install with noop 2.0.
I found you need to edit in two different places to get it to work.
/etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
/home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
So my configure file is:
# #xscreensaver -no-splash
#xset s off
#xset -dpms
#xset s noblank
#chromium-browser --kiosk --incognito http://localhost
And that's it.
You should probably start with checking if /usr/bin/kiosk/browser is working at all. You should start normal X session (graphical environment) on your RaspberryPi, launch terminal, try running this command:
/usr/bin/kiosk/browser http://my-kiosk-domain.com
and see what it prints on the terminal. Is this working? Do you see any error messages?

I think Instant WebKiosk for Raspberry Pi could be useful for you.
