but it requires root privileges that I cannot give.
So I figured they could run the command as "sudo". I looked in /etc/sudoers and wasn't sure what I needed to edit for the users to run the following command
sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

He is using an Intel wireless card, but I am unsure of the exact model.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am here with a troublesome question about my new Ubuntu set up. Well as I've found out that you have to use the Sudo command to edit anything out side the home directory. Well I am using L.A.M.P. Server on my computer so I can host a small forums. Well for example like lets say I install Word press Blog onto my lamp server and I want to install a theme well when i go to install a theme i can not because WPB can't install the theme because of the security stuff on Ubuntu!
Well I want to know if there is some kind of command or program i can use that will get rid of all the security stuff were i can edit stuff nice and easy. Like something that can give me FULL control over the OS so no more commands because I am going to be running a Vbulliten forums which needs themes and plug ins, well i want be able to install them because this OS will not let me!

fedora 11 - 2.6.30.9-96, using gnome
My sample rates are out of whack and I need to edit the daemon.conf file.
However if I use

I tried going in as root from the terminal and using the code above and I get a weird error.
Something like:
Then it says core dump.
Am I missing something to be able to edit the daemon.conf ?

I have a problem with the screen flickering on fedora 15 (and lots of other modern distros, eg: ubuntu 10.10 and 11.04 and opensuse 11.4) i think it is something to do with xorg.conf as older linux distros work fine
so i added one using
Code:
Xorg :1 -configure
cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
but i still have a slight flicker. my monitor takes an input at 50-60Hz how do i set that up in the config file or is that not what is causing that? and can somebody recommend me a nice icon set for fedora
