awesome configuration

awesome is a fork of the minimalist dwm tiling window manager.

Awesome has a system tray, a panel with statistics/graphs, lua support, multihead support and more. The downside to awesome is the config file breaking after every release. Sometimes modifications are minimal. As of 3.4.5, there have been less updates, making the system feel more stable.

Remove services (mpd) from system startup in Linux

I'm using MPD on Ubuntu and Debian and get annoyed by mpd starting at boot time under root.

Your startup services lie in the /etc/rc.d folder. You will observe that ls -l /etc/rc4.d for instance, will show you these files are weighted to run in order and symlink to their corresponding startup scripts in /etc/init.d.

To disable mpd, for instance, update-rc.d can help:

sudo update-rc.d -f mpd remove

Now you will be able to add mpd to a local user script on startup without having to sudo mpd --kill or sudo killall mpd.
