View 11 Replies View RelatedI had a script once that had in it a while true; do and read lines or data from a file similarly to a while read; do. I have a script I'm working on now where I'm trying to "prove the negative" that certain substrings culled from one file do not appear in another file. I'll try to explain what I mean with an example. An item in one list might be
Code:
[URL]
But the other list may only have
Code:
harvey1996nicks:Six stores in north London
harvey1997nicks:Three stores in Bristol
harvey1999nicks:Eight stores in the lower Midlands
The problem is, other items in the first list do match items in the second. The script I'm drawing this from has already pulled those out and written them to one (or several) lists that I've been able to use with other programs (Exiv2 specifically). The furthest I've bothered to go in the direction of "proving the negative" is a slow "if/then/fi" loop that looks like this:
Code:
linecheck=$[linecheck+1]
if [[ "$linecheck" == "$axe" ]] && [[ "$matchX" == "" ]]; then echo -e $file>>nomatches.txt; fi
linecheck is counting the lines of the second file -- the one with the designations or "labels" (the "so many stores in ..." from my example) -- as they are checked against the file names in the first (the "harvey199*nicks.jpg" etc of my example. axe is the number of lines in that first list (culled from a cat |wc -l at the beginning of the script). matchX is the variable the "prove the positive" script used for matches, one list to the other, which then got written line by line to a text file.

I have now 11.04 installed and using Gnome, everything is how i want it. But there is one little thing.
If i connect to a server true the classic Connect to server button in places. I expect that it opens with nautilus but it opens Firefox.
I have already looked gconf-editor in the url-handlers and changed it but there is no difference. Is there a fix?
This line if [[ $hamachi_reachable = true && $lan_reachable = true ]]; then is always evaluating to true. I gave two ips that are not valid, so that both variables would become false yet the whole expression is evaluating as true. With that set -x in there, I get this output.
Where am I going wrong?
Code:
I installed Ubuntu 10.04 using Wubi and I am very very happy with it. I want to get rid of Wubi and just have a normal Ubuntu installation. Do I need to do a clean install or is there anyway to switch from wubi to native install. Or backup all my settings and installed apps and import them to a clean install?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have installed Lynx and want to use two X servers at the same time. Each server has its own ServerLayout section in xorg.cong. The first ServerLayout Section has AutoAddDevices enabled, so that new input devices are added automatically. The second ServerLayout has AutoAddDevices disabled, and one InputDecice pointing to /dev/input/mouse3. That way, this mouse is the only input decive affecting the second X instance.
Unfortunately, this mouse is also controlling the first server (due to AutoAddDecives). Can anyone tell me how to disable this? I want every input device to be added to the first server, except this mouse. In earlier versions of ubuntu, I used a hal rule to make hal ignore this mouse. So it was not added to the first server. Now that hal is not used by lynx anymore, I don't know how to do this. I have already read some things about udev and the xorg.conf.d folder.
I completely deleted NTFS as having a boring windows doesn't make any sense today, installed it with ext4:

/ = space left
After successful install, the BIOS screen with HP logo remains stuck, it won't boot anything in another words. I can't get the boot loader, nothing as if it awkwardly trying to boot from external data drive. Did my hard drive go poof? or did I miss something during install? How can I get my hd to read?

The distribution I've been using does not have a proper two-factor login scheme. The daft buggers have configured the system so that whomever is sitting in front of a machine is gifted with the entire list of user names having access to the system. This, of course, only requires them to guess only one of the factors instead of both. So while said system is still a two-factor system it's one whose security has been crippled down to a single-factor system. Does anyone know which distributions have proper two-factor authentication schemes for logging in users?
No, I will not name the distribution I'm using so that a 'fix' can be provided. If the distributions creators have been willing to knowingly bugger the security of the system for the sake of user laziness at the login then heaven only knows what other holes exist. I have neither the time nor the inclination to discover or ask what they might be and how to 'fix' them as well. Better to simply move on to a distribution who won't knowlingly bugger the security.
I have the following line in my .Xresources, and it only works when I'm not running KDE:
Code:
XTerm*reverseVideo: true When I start up XTerm in Xfce, TWM, or any other window manager, I get the expected black background. When I launch XTerm in KDE, I get a white background, meaning that the reverseVideo setting is not taking effect. When I'm in KDE, launching XTerm with -rv does give me an XTerm with a black background. Obviously, having to add this switch every time I launch an XTerm in KDE is suboptimal, no matter how you try to automate it. Manually running xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources and then launching XTerm immediately afterwards does not make a difference.
If you're wondering why this is a concern, it's because all 256-color vim color schemes (xoria256, desert256, inkpot) require reverseVideo to be set so that XTerm launches with a black background. You get a black-on-black cursor otherwise.

Recently I installed a Linux distro (Pardus) which boots using initramfs. I am completely novice here. In the former configuration I used lilo to boot OpenBSD, Debian and W2k (it is easy for me to configure lilo to boot OpenBSD). But initramfs is a something completely new for me. As I understand it is a virtual file system with a standard directory tree and the information stored on that system is used (to boot the kernel?) to mount the true (physical) root device. The first question is how to properly describe a system (kernel image) booted with initramfs in the lilo.conf.
