Some third-party programs like matlab provide install scripts or binaries which don't have an uninstall option. So uninstalling these programs is a real pain, since I have to track down each of the hundreds of files scattered across my filesystem. Is there some way to monitor the filesystem changes made by these installers? For shellcripts I can in principle examine the script
I am not able to installed ntop ( network monitor tool ) while run below command, i have got the error #./autogen.sh configure: error: Unable to find RRD at /usr/local: please use --with-rrd-home=DIR
I have a Gretag-Macbeth Eye-One monitor calibration tool that (along with the Epson printer calibration tools) I use on my Windows machine to get W.Y.S.I.W.Y.G. color photography printing. Am curious as to IF the thing can be run under Ubuntu (using 10.04). Know that it will have to be run in Wine or some emulator. has any one done this? And how was it accomplished AND (most importantly) DOES IT WORK? This is NOT one of those "I gotta get this working" things. just that I WOULD like to calibrate the monitors on the Ubuntu machines I have.
I have looked for and found several tools to show a system's total network usage. I have not, however, been able to find any that show this information in the context of individual processes. Do any such tools for linux exist?
I have few Windows and Linux Machines and am in verse to monitor what upload and download is being performed as the network system are running in slow pace.Any one who can recommend a tool or utility which can track uploads and download in a network.If it can track who is downloading or uploading with what size of data could really benefit.
i have done most of the setup for MRTG network monitor tool.
But i m stuck at configuration part.
the actual MRTG guide says following.
I m little confused about what should i put inplace of community@router.abc.xyz.
Quote:
The next step is to configure mrtg for monitoring a network device. This is done by creating an mrtg.cfg file which defines what you want to monitor. Luckily, you don't have to dive straight in and start writing your own configuration file all by yourself. Together with mrtg you also got a copy of cfgmaker. This is a script you can point at a router of your choice; it will create a mrtg configuration file for you. You can find the script in the bin subdirectory.
This example above will create an mrtg config file in /home/mrtg/cfg assuming this is a directory visible on your webserver. You can read all about cfgmaker in cfgmaker. One area you might want to look at is the possibility of using --ifref=ip to prevent interface renumbering troubles from catching you.
If you want to start rolling your own mrtg configuration files, make sure you read mrtg-reference to learn all about the possible configuration options.
I am having individual Linux server and need to install nagios monitoring tool on the server. How to install on this linux server. I am using CentOS. Need to to monitor mysql and http services.
So about an hour ago I put my computer on standby. For whatever reason I couldn't bring it back so I restarted it. It works fine except now Ubuntu has pushed my display down. This means that the bottom of my tool-bar on the bottom of the screen is cut off, and there's a black bar on the top. I'm using a T.V. screen so there is no way I can manually adjust it. I also plugged my desktop back into an old monitor and it was off-center downward too.
I've been searching the forums for a while and can find similar issues, but not the exact issue. So here it is: I recently downloaded the Fedora 11 x86_64 full install DVD iso and burned it to a DVD. It booted up fine and went to the "splash screen" (where you select options) with no problems. I first selected "upgrade or install." There was some text on the screen before the screen lost output ("no signal" displayed on my monitor.) I let it sit like this for about ten minutes hoping it would work to no avail. Next I selected "upgrade or install with default video driver" this time I got to the "check media" screen, checked with no problems, said continue, it said it was loading anaconda...then...boom, same problem
I cannot install Fedora core 10. It boots up and it gets to the Fedora 10 loading screen. After that it complains my monitor is out of Range and that's as far as I can go. I had originally thought I could get to some text install mode, but I don't make it far enough to do that.
I'm trying to install Fedora 10. I'm booting from a CD, and the installation gets as far as those 3 progress bars in the very beginning. As soon as they all load, my monitor goes black and starts flashing a "DVI Input Out Of Range" warning. That's all. I'm using a nvidia geforce 8800 gtx and the Planar PX3611W monitor.
I am trying to install Fedora 11, but the monitor that I am using is only 640x480. When the window comes up to start the install, I cannot see any of the buttons or tabs for selecting the items. How can I adjust the resolution so that I can see the entire image in my screen?
I have an F11 on an old box 686 athlon with an old nVidia Corporation NV5 [RIVA TNT2/TNT2 Pro] (rev 15) AGP. I am trying to do a network install upgrade to F13. I cannot get it to display the install menus from the network install disk. I get the initial screen with the install, basic video, repair, etc choices, but after I select the install/upgrade option, I see the CD drive read but the LCD monitor display never appears. The ready light on the monitor just keeps blinking and the display stays dark. Is there anyway of getting an error log to see what is going on?
I am facing problem with the fresh installation of Fedora 11. (I have moved from Fedora 9). When I try to view videos on ..... or use the Cheese Webcam Booth, I get blurred lines on the screen and I am unable to see any video or pic.
Also I noticed that the when i go to System > Preferences>Display, it shows me UNKOWN MONIOR.
However, if I got to System>Administration>Display and enter the su password, it shows me correct monitor and the graphics driver.
I am not sure if my original is related to the Unknown Monitor.
I also tried to install Nvidia driver but it crashed the xserver and I had remove the driver.
My Monitor is LG 700E and Graphics card is from intel. as I am not able watch any video.
I am having problems getting my external monitor to work. When I plug in the monitor, both the laptop screen and the external monitor go black. When I unplug the monitor, the laptop screen works again. When I startup with the external monitor plugged in, neither screen works or teh computer hangs or something.
I have had the external monitor going on a couple of occasions. I did manage to configure my monitors through System Settings > Display. I turned off the laptop monitor as I just want to use the external. But after rebooting, things didn't work.
I have an external monitor connected to my laptop (extended display). I always drag the Totem player from the laptop screen to external monitor to watch video files. I wonder, if the Totem player can be set to open in the external monitor automatically, everytime I open it?
My software and hardware information are as follows. I have Fedora 12 and KDE 4.4.5 installed on a Dell Vostro 1500 laptop. I believe it's a 64 bit processor; it's an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU. The external monitor is a Dell as well.
My problem is that my system does not seem to be detecting an external monitor that I have connected. Everything else is working just fine; however, I would like to have the option of attaching an external monitor. When I plug the external monitor into the laptop, the external monitor remains black and appears to be in power save mode. The results of xrandr -q (with or without the external monitor attached: it doesn't appear to change) are as follows.
Code:
How can I get my laptop to recognize that the external monitor is even connected? Let me know if I can be more specific or provide additional details.
I just upgrade to F14 from F10 on a dual montor setup. Firefox behaives differently on F14 than on F10. On F10 it followed the mouse pointer's location and show up on the correct monitor
When maximized at close, it is always displayed on the left monitor. When not maximized at close it will open on the monitor where the mouse pointer is located.
About minimize/maximize Firefoxe before closing and it seems to work in some case, but not for me.
I found this thread by looking up ultramon replacement: [URL] I would like to use "swapmonitor", to make it easy to move windows from monitor to monitor in a dual desktop environment. I have no idea how to install it.
i am using Open Suse 11.4 as VMWare guest, I installed the Open Suse on the Guest using the Live CD and when I am trying to install vmware-tools am getting an error that its not able to find the linux-headers I have installed all other prereq's using zypper, when i try to do zypper in linux-kernel-headers am getting this error
Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... 'linux-kernel-headers' not found in package names. Trying capabilities. 'linux-glibc-devel' providing 'linux-kernel-headers' is already installed. Resolving package dependencies...
resolve this ? Is there any way i can specify the linux-glibc-devel' providing 'linux-kernel-headers' for the vmware tools so that the installation is completed successfully
need any db tool which will help me to handle daily db operations from RHLE 5. I have oracle 11g DB with same platform. I want windows like GUI for DB operations
I installed OpenSuse 11.4 Gnome on my Toshiba laptop. A couple of things i noticed while trying the live CD first is that the file manager recognized my NTFS partitions and after I installed I expected it to do the same. Also, while installing I thought I selected a secure logon with username & password. After installation it boots right into the desktop GUI. I haven't had a lot of time playing with OpenSuse yet and I have browsed through some threads and I couldn't find a way to configure a secure logon and do I have to mount the Windows partitions in the Command Line or is there a tool I can use in the control center?
I have a computer, that has the bad luck to be equipped with buggy hard-drives. Actually, they need a firmware update. This firmware update will probably destroy the data on them. I also want to add one or two other hard-drives to the RAID. What I am looking for, is a tool, that makes a clone of the system as it is now. And then, when I will have upgraded the disk firmware and added the other hard-drives, I just clone the system back from the clone.
