Ubuntu :: Cannot Find 7Zip In Order To Unzip New Downloads

Aug 7, 2010

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx
Dual Boot with Windwos Vista
Level - beginner (started today 07/0810)

I have just given Linux a try for the first time and so far its not proving to be a good experience. I have so far just tried to install a couple of basic programs I am familiar with and ones suggested by Lifehacker.I wanted to install Tweetdeck, which meant installing Adobe Air. I duly downloaded Adobe Air but it then says I need to choose an application to open it. Assuming that the bin file was a zip file I looked in the software centre and found 7zip. Told it to load that but then couldn't find where it was. Its not listed in the Applications drop down (top right) so I found 'search for a file' and entered *7zip* to be shown 5 files. All but one appear to be a form of image file the other (7zip.desktop) isn't an exe either. Double clicking on it just gets me the following in something called gedit.

Name=7zip
Comment=7zip compression/uncompression tool
Terminal=false
Type=Application

[code].....

I then gave up and used google to find the program and download it, but just came across the same problem. Why oh why is there not some default program already loaded for unzipping files? How can I find 7Zip (I have already looked in the bin folder on the system drive but nothing there) and run it to tell it to make itself the default for unzipping files?

CentOS 5 :: Find -print0 The Order Of The Args Matters?

Jun 14, 2010

In the man page for find there is an example for deleting core files from /tmp: find /tmp -name core -type f -print0 | xargs -0 /bin/rm -f

which I am sure does what was intended. However, this very similar command does something quite different: find /tmp -print0 -name core -type f | xargs -0 /bin/rm -f

This actually removes all files in /tmp, ignoring the -name and -type arguments. I checked the man page to see if it detailed this behaviour, but the only reference to the order of the arguments was that -name should come before -type to prevent excessive calls to stat(2) on all files. This seems very risky behaviour on the part of find and I am concerned about whether this is a bug or not. I wasn't trying to remove core files from /tmp when I found this out, but deleting other files from another part of the filesystem .

General :: Easy Way To Find Out Like Which Items Don't Match Between 2 Files Regardless Of Order

Mar 15, 2011

I have following 2 files

File1
10.1.1.1
10.1.2.1
10.1.3.1

File2
10.1.3.1
10.1.2.1
10.1.1.1

Both are reverse of each other. Now, basically if you see, the contents are same, but in different order. Is there any easy way in which i can find out like which items dont match between 2 files, regardless of order. Lets say i add 10.1.4.1 to File1. Now the result of such comparison should be only '10.1.4.1'. Currently if i am comparing both files using diff, it gives me all the lines.

Fedora :: FireFox 4 And Flash - Displays Various Blocks Of Color

Mar 23, 2011

i am having problems with firefox4 and flash with some sites like msnbc. videos seems to be ok. flash displays displays various blocks of color and is not usable when the problems presents itself. i have the problem on f13,f14, f15 with all versions of firefox4 on two different machines (intel and ati graphics). i tried the new test ubuntu (11.04) and all is fine so i am thinking it is something special about fedora's flash plugin. i mentioned this a couple of weeks ago and it didn't seem to be a common experience.

I'm making life difficult for myself. Summary, I have a laptop with F10 installed on a portable harddrive (sdb 1-3, i.e., no logical volume) Works great, no complaints so I guess this reduces to a grub question; how do I edit grub.conf to boot an iso on sdb4? Fedora10.iso for example.
