I'm trying to set up a raspberry pi with a docker mopidy service (wernight/mopidy).
To follow this step:
Launch paprefs
(PulseAudio Preferences) > "Network Server" tab > Check "Enable network access to local sound devices" (you may check "Don't require authentication" to avoid mounting cookie file described below).
I need a desktop GUI. I do not have one. How can I set this via the command line?

My Parallels VM is configured to use some network services on the host mac via the virtual network, but as the virtual network is not up when the mac host's services are started at boot they aren't listening on the virtual interface and the VM can't connect to them. After starting the VM I have to remember to manually restart those services on the mac host so that they are listening on the virtual network. It's annoying when I forget to do so...
I'd like to automate this process if possible. Is there any way to configure Parallels to run a shell script on the host after a VM is started and the virtual network is up? (Suggestions for how to run a startup script on the guest VM are not germane.)
You can prepare script using Automator. Script must be a type "Application". For your purposes, the "Run Sell Script" action is probably the best suited, but you may need something else. After the script is prepared and debugged, you need to move the .app bundle of this script needs to /Applications
Then check in the VM configuration that Options / Aplications / Share Mac applications with Windows are enabled.
Start the VM (or restart it if it's running).
Please find the element with the scipt name at the Parallels Shared Applications folder in Windows Start menu.
Then please right click on it, choose More / Open file location.
Try to launch script by double-clicking on it.
If the "allow open applications" dilog box is appeared, please select "Always Allow".
Press Cmd+R, type "shell:startup", then press OK and copy the element with the script name from the previously opened window to the new appeared window.
That's it.
Now, every VM startup, a script will be launched on the host.
There are many questions similar to mine (e.g. xdg-open not open default browser or xdgutils - xdg-settings not setting default-web-browser in gentoo, but none of the answers helped in my case. Therefor I ask for my particular situation:
On Centos 7 I have no free desktop manager running, I just run some X11 applications (like VS Code) from the command line where the DISPLAY variable is set to the X server on the (Windows) machine I connect from.
On the Centos machine I have two browsers installed, firefox and google-chrome. I can start both browsers just by typing firefox resp. google-chrome in the bash terminal.
xdg-open is available and it opens links in google-chrome - as does VS Code. However I want to change this to firefox.
I tried:
Ticking "Default browser" in Firefox's GUI preferences.
Using xdg-settings, but
xdg-settings get default-web-browser
returns "xdg-settings: unknown desktop environment"
Setting $BROWSER. In bash I issued
export BROWSER=firefox
but still google-chrome is started by xdg-open
How can I set in this environment the default browser to firefox?
Note: Strangely on another machine with Centos 6 (and "no desktop environment" either) the export BROWSER method works!
The desired behavior can be set in the mimeapps.list configuration files described in the XDG MIME Applications specification.
TLDR:
In order to configure firefox as the default browser for your user create ~/.config/mimeapps.list containing the following lines:
[Default Applications]
x-scheme-handler/http=firefox.desktop
x-scheme-handler/https=firefox.desktop
x-scheme-handler/ftp=firefox.desktop
x-scheme-handler/chrome=firefox.desktop
text/html=firefox.desktop
application/x-extension-htm=firefox.desktop
application/x-extension-html=firefox.desktop
application/x-extension-shtml=firefox.desktop
application/xhtml+xml=firefox.desktop
application/x-extension-xhtml=firefox.desktop
application/x-extension-xht=firefox.desktop
Details:
xdg-utils like xdg-open(1) and xdg-mime(1) look for this file in the locations listed under the File name and location section of this specification:
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/$desktop-mimeapps.list user overrides, desktop-specific (for advanced users)
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mimeapps.list user overrides (recommended location for user configuration GUIs)
$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/$desktop-mimeapps.list sysadmin and ISV overrides, desktop-specific
$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/mimeapps.list sysadmin and ISV overrides
$XDG_DATA_HOME/applications/$desktop-mimeapps.list for completeness, deprecated, desktop-specific
$XDG_DATA_HOME/applications/mimeapps.list for compatibility, deprecated
$XDG_DATA_DIRS/applications/$desktop-mimeapps.list distribution-provided defaults, desktop-specific
$XDG_DATA_DIRS/applications/mimeapps.list distribution-provided defaults
The locations for the $XDG variables are governed by the XDG Base Directory specification. If you want to figure out where xdg-utils are looking for configuration in your particular case, run them with the XDG_UTILS_DEBUG_LEVEL environment variable like so:
$ XDG_UTILS_DEBUG_LEVEL=10 xdg-open 'https://www.example.com'
...
Checking /home/USERNAME/.config/mimeapps.list

My issue is while launching the RemoteApp it keeps spinning and says "Configuring remote session". Not all the time, though. It was launching a while ago and signed off. Now again launched the RemoteApp it just spinning.

I'm searching for opening the network systray icon by powershell (left click), to show all of network avaliable connection. I've found of course about .cpl and NCPA, but not how I can open this systray popup programmatically.
There is also netsh interface show interface but it's in Command Line. Does I need to recreate an interface ?
Perhaps this panel is created "on-the-fly", that's why I can't open it externally
