I am using Ubuntu 10.04 x64 in a three-boot configuration; the first boot choice screen (the one I would like to change) gives the options of booting to Ubuntu, 3 options I don't understand, and booting to Windows 7. Unfortunately, at least for me, Ubuntu is at the top and is the default. [The third choice is Win XP x32 - but it appears on a separate screen]
My question: How can I make the boot to Windows 7 the default choice?
I was in the CLI experimenting with lynx and then I thought let's see what this dd thing can do and usually when I run commands without parameters just gives me an brief idea about what can I use. With dd it just hangs on there like it would be doing something ...
I immediately quit that terminal and then I couldn't mount my ntfs big important lifesaver partition. I rebooted and now I can. I just want to ask what damage could dd make if run without any parameters. I don't have any external backup medium.
Ubuntu 10.04 I am dual-booting along with Windows. I need to change the order of boot options so that Windows is the automatic selection rather than Ubuntu. I cannot find the file to make the change and not sure what changes I should make when I do find it .

In Ubuntu 10.10, Properties really gives you the bare minimum. Is there a program to download in order to get the same sort of basic options as one does from Properties in Windows 7?

I just have a caching nameserver on my Fedora PC:
I configured my DNS server addresses in the Network-Manager Applet: 127.0.0.1, 8.8.8.8
Even with Wireshark, I can see it:
So the big question: Why don't the host command or my web browser recognize that I have modified audit.median.hus IP address?

May i choose it from the very beginning ?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI regularly use 'df -h' to check usage on each of my primary directories and mount points.
I'm currently somewhat confused by disk usage within my filesystem, so I'd like to do the following:
Display directory size of all, or say, the 10 largest, subdirectories to a specified directory. So, if I passed the root (/) directory, output would list the subdirectory of / with the largest disk usage first and its associated disk usage listed in human readable format (either M or G suffix as appropriate), followed by the subdirectory and usage for the second largest directory and so on.
Can anyone suggest a command or series of commands to do this?
I'm trying to rename all files in a folder as such:
1.jpg
2.jpg
3.jpg
Renaming them is no problem, the problem I have is, they need to be in order of the datetime that they were taken, so that the 1.jpg would be the oldest file there. The difference in filetimes is going to be very small, around 3 or 4 tenths of a second.
The reason I need to do this is that I have another script (not quite finished yet), that takes the next three files in a loop and applies qtpfsgui to them to output an HDR image to another folder, then move on to 4,5 & 6, and: repeat.
I'm trying to automate OS installation. I've setup PXE and able to do network installation. For installation, I'm changing the BIOS boot order to boot from network.Once the OS installation is over, I need to manually change the BIOS boot order to boot from hard-disk. Can BIOS boot order be changed using programs/command-line so that i can eliminate human intervention in the installation process by changing back to the original boot order by program/commands?

I'm having a hard time trying to print documents to PDF via cups-pdf at the command line and get all of the nice formatting options that the GUI print spooler dialogs provide. I know how to do "lpr -P Generic-CUPS-PDF-Printer filename" to get a general file printed to a PDF, but this method clearly is missing all of the nice formattingptions that get passed when using a GUI print spooler (margins, fonts, dpi, paper size, etc..). I tried to use ps to capture whatever command is being sent by the spooler but couldn't figure it out, since I'm not really sure what commands get called by the spooler

View 4 Replies View Related(1) I'm wondering if there is a way to have abcde play the songs while it is encoding? I understand that this would be a lot slower.
(2) Is it possible to have abcde start playing right after it finishes ripping the first track and then have it add on the other tracks to the playlist as it rips them.
Is there anyway to do one or both of these from the command line or with abcde's built-in options?

I cannot access the command line options and the environment variables.
I have an executable with input options, like so:
Code:
./executable -n 42 -s 42
I've added gcov to the makefiles (compiling with --coverage, -fprofile-arcs, and -ftest-coverage, and linking with -lgcov). It builds fine and creates executable.gcno.
When I try to run gcov, gcov things the options belong to it:
Code:
$ gcov ./executable -n 42 -s 42
gcov: invalid option -- 's'
Usage: gcov [OPTION]... SOURCEFILE...
When I use quotes this happens:
Code:
$ gcov './executable -n 42 -s 42'
executable -n 42 -s 42.gcno:cannot open graph file
The command line options must remain. How can I get gcov to generate the same .gcno file it later looks for?
So I have the burned ubuntu CD, and I'm attempting to install it on a system that has one HDD with XP/Vista on it, and another that is completely formatted and unpartitioned. However, when I boot to the ubuntu CD, I can use the menus from the bottom, and select the language when initially prompted, but I can't select any of the menu options except for boot from first hard drive.

I have installed Suse Linux Enterprise Server 11 onto the box that I am using as a server. Connected to the "server" is a Windows Vista PC.Beyond installing the O/S with all the options I need - I am stuck. The Windows PC will not connect to the internet whereas the Linux server will.What do I need to setup and in what order to get the pc working on the internet?
The path that I think I need to take is to disable dhcp on the broadband router and setup the server as dhcp (how and what); setup the rules in the firewall (how and what rules?) and setup dns and dhcp (how and what?)
