Somehow my download directory is my HOME (~) directory not ~/Downloads
I don't know how this happened or when, but I can find no place to reset it.
Can anyone point me to how to do this manually or from the menus???
I am trying to install NachOS on fedora, i make a nachos directory and download the nachos source code and cross compiler, then i extract the zip files and patch the make files and everything is okay till now. but when it comes to compiling nachos, i followed these steps.
* ~/nachos> cd NachOS-4.0
* ~/nachos/NachOS-4.0> cd code/build.linux
* ~/nachos/NachOS-4.0/code/build.linux> make depend

I am new to Linux, running Fedora 13. If installing from source, how do I specify the directory into which I want to download the file? I have a Download directory set up in my home directory but nothing ever goes there and I spend all my time searching for the files I just downloaded. I obviously have no idea what I am doing.
The download pages don't provide me with a choice, that I can see. I usually end up doing yum install but then I don't really learn anything from the process.
I'm wondering the way to download a whole directory from a website (in example [URL] to my hard drive.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI don't want the 'Download' dir in my home. I don't have it in any other computer and there is no problem. But in my Desktop, every time i reboot there is one 'Downloads' dir in my home and I remove it every time (rmdir Downloads). But when I reboot, it is there again! So what is creating my Downloads dir?. I repeat, I have another laptop with the same ubuntu version (10.04) and I don't have this problem.

View 4 Replies View Relatedi have a web directory that has many folders and many sub folders containing files.
i need to download everything using wget or bash.
I'm trying to download all the data under this directory, using wget: [URL] I would like to achieve this using wget, and from what I've read it should be possible using the --recursive flag. Unfortunately, I've had no luck so far. The only files that get downloaded are robots.txt and index.html (which doesn't actually exist on the server), but wget does not follow any of the links on the directory list. The code I've been using is: Code: wget -r *ttp://gd2.mlb.***/components/game/mlb/year_2010/
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want a script to download all the lyrics to all the mp3s in a directory. Many things turn up with a web search, most of them being plug-in scripts for various music clients. I read this page, which got me started: [URL]. It has been the closest match to that for which I'm looking.Unfortunately it's kinda old. So I looked at the source code of ncmpcpp, a console MPD client that can retrieve lyrics. Here's where I am so far. Running this URL in a web browser: [URL]
Produces this output:
-<LyricsResult>
<artist>Aerosmith</artist>
<song>Amazing</song>
<lyrics>I kept the right ones out
An[...]</lyrics>
<url>http://lyrics.wikia.com/Aerosmith:Amazing</url>
<page_namespace>0</page_namespace>
<page_id>6337</page_id>
<isOnTakedownList>1</isOnTakedownList>
</LyricsResult>
As you can see here in the <lyrics> tag only the first part of the lyrics of the song "Amazing" by Aerosmith show up in the result. I'm wondering at this point why it only shows some and not all of the lyrics. If I can whip this I can proceed with the rest as explained in [URL] to which I referred earlier. I have only a dial up internet connection and it's discouraging to start up the connection just for the lyrics to one or two songs. I've downloaded many already using the lyrics search feature I compiled ncmpcpp with.

I'm trying to execute the command:
Uum Update
Or other yum installation of samething
After a while I obtain always messages saying:
Insufficient space in download directory
So I understood is a problem with space.
I went to my shell and digited the command:
df -h
but it show there is plenty of space.
I also deleted a lot of space to make room, just to be sure, but nothing different happens. I'm attaching a screenshot to this post.

View 7 Replies View RelatedThis is probably a stupid question, but is there any way to change the location where gphoto2 dumps the photos it downloads from the camera? Right now it just dumps the them in the current directory.
I've looked through the man page and nothing jumps out at me. The only thing I can think of doing is moving the downloaded photos to a new directory via a hook script, but before I go down that route, is there some kind of option I missed?
I cant get to the download folder:

This is step 2.2:

Open a terminal and change the directory to the download destination.
I'm not entirely sure what that means! I've tried doing the other steps without doing that one and it doesn't seem to work.
I was having trouble getting php files to display properly on my ubuntu 10.10 LAMP setup. Everything was installed with defaults and working properly. testphp.php worked as long as it was in the sites parent directory, but any php files in user directories did not work. All browsers tried to download the php files located in /home/user/public_html instead. I tried to use the help documents here, [URL]..
Finally I was browsing around in the /etc/apache2/mods-available directory and looked at the php5.conf file. Here is the relevant information from the file:
Code:
# To re-enable php in user directories comment the following lines
# (from <IfModule ...> to </IfModule>.) Do NOT set it to On as it
# prevents .htaccess files from disabling it.
# <IfModule mod_userdir.c> #Comment out this line
[Code]...
I tried to edit the help document linked above but it says not to do so! I couldn't find a reference for this fix anywhere else, so I decided to post it here.

I setup a download directory on my server, and put a test video in it. I tried to run the video in my browser and it only runs part of the video then stops. If I download it and run it on my desktop with mplayer it run the full video. I am not sure why? Here is a link to the video. [URL]. Before I setup more videos I wanted to see if there is an answer to this problem.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a server with Fedora 13 with which I would like to get NFS working. I have looked up multiple howto's and tutorials, but I'm having a problem not addressed by any of them.Official how-to, another how-to, and another how-to.I have verified that nfs-utils, nfs-utils-lib, portmap, and system-config-nfs are installed and running. I have verified that I have, in fact, shared the directory that I want to share, and that the proper permissions are set.
I had to go through some gyrations to get the Belkin wireless N router to allow my server to have a static IP. However, I can ping the server from the nfs client (a toshiba satellite running mint 8), and vice versa. I have (for now) disabled firewalls on both computers. I think I have disabled SELinux on Fedora 13 (for now).When I attempt to connect to the server from the client, the output looks like this:Quote:
