General :: Download 'complex' Links Via Command Line?
Feb 3, 2010
I'm not sure how to explain my situation. I would like to download the file <https://www.vmware.com/tryvmware/p/activate.php?p=free-esxi&lp=1&ext=1&a=DOWNLOAD_FILE&baseurl=http://download2.vmware.com/software/vi/&filename=VMware-VMvisor-Installer-4.0.0.Update01-208167.x86_64.iso> via the command line. I've tried a few different methods with wget, the best I get is an index.php file. I'm not at all familiar with php but a search for "wget php" yielded nothing helpful.

I need to download a file from a website which has a URL formatted like:
[URL]
This redirects to a .zip file which has to be saved. There is also a need to authenticate based on username and password.
I tried to use wget, curl and lynx with no luck.
UPDATE:
wget doesnt work with redirection. It simply downloads the webpage instead of the zip file. curl gives the error "Maximum redirection exceeded > 50 " lynx also gives the same error.

I am trying to figure something out as part of something else I am going to do. I was just wondering the easiest and quickest way to run a loop at the Linux command line which will make x amount of symbolic links when I need them.
I am using Debian 5.
I figure its something as easy as ~# foreach statement, then I just do a loop with the command to make a sym link.

I compiled the 2.6.31.6 kernel and <insert drumroll> it boots!(my first kernel roll, I'm kind of shocked actually) That's the good news. The bad news is that my NVIDIA drivers are gone in the wind. That's not entirely true as I can still boot into the old kernel and startx. Is there a way to download the driver using the command line for reinstall?

I need to replace a line in the lvm.conf file from: filter = [ "r|/dev/.*/by-path/.*|", "r|/dev/.*/by-id/.*|", "a/.*/" ] to: filter = [ "a|/dev/cciss/c0d0.*|", "a|/dev/disk/by-id/.*|", "r|.*|" ] And I was hoping there was a way to use sed or awk to do this in a script (as I need to repeat this on several machines).
All of the examples I've found don't see to work with all of the special characters in the line that I need to replace. Then I need to add a line after the above edit like this: types = [ "device-mapper", 253 ]

I need to write a script called '~/get_birthrate' which when invoked with a two letter country abbreviation(i.e, au,ch,ni), extracts the appropriate line which contains the information about the country's birth rate from the [URL] (where "ca.html" should be replaced with the appropriate two letter abbreviation). The output should look like:
$ get_birthrate au
8.69 births/1,000 population (2007 est.)
$ get_birthrate ch
13.45 births/1,000 population (2007 est.)
$ get_birthrate ni
40.2 births/1,000 population (2007 est.)

I would like to keep this simple and if possible use a piped command as opposed to an all out complex method.I have a script that does many things for me, and one of them builds a basic simple system report (I know about lshw, but this is for me to learn as well as be functional)
I would like to add another pipe to remove the"model name:" portion.I do not really want to use the store in a variable first solutions if I can help it.

I read and saw a video that says that typing in 'links' command followed by a website, will open a site in terminal.
However, when I type in the links command, terminal returns the error 'bash: links: command not found'.
What package or library needs to be installed to get this command to work.

I'm trying to download firefox or chrome for windows so that I can use it in wine. Trouble is when I try to dowload a windows version of either I get spoonfed the download link for the linux version only, which I obviously already have. I dont mind dowloading it from somewhere else if I have to, but dowloading it from the developers is usually the best option.Why are these, and probably other, websites spoonfeeding us, and with no choice but to be spoonfed? As a computer user it's patronizing, but as a linux user its just insulting.

I know my way around MS Windows much better, but I just don't feel right trying to program something for Android on a Microsoft operating system. I am interested in Android programming so I followed the instructions on [URL] to install the environment on my computer...
I just installed the JDK, SDK, Eclipse successfully (or I assume):
* When I get to Step 4 where I'm supposed to run 'android' it will not run. I get the error message "android: command not found" (I am definitely in the right directory).
** When I double-click it in nautilus, it opens up in gedit. I can set the permissions in nautilus (through the properties - Allow executing file as a program) and get it to work,
My system:
Intel i7
Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat
android-sdk-linux-x86
eclipse 3.6.2

i have a Realtek RTL8192E Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC card on my Samsung r580 laptop that i just installed Ubuntu studio 10.04 on. I am wondering how to get the wireless card working in Ubuntu. I saw some info on my card here *url #1 (the urls i reference are in the attached txt file called urls.txt because i couldn't post the actual urls because apparently i need to post 15 times or something which i don't have time for at the moment)* and then i went here to download ndiswrapper *url #2* and both of the links on that page don't work. I followed the instructions on this page *urls #3* to get the info on my card. here is the info when i typed "lspci -knn" into the terminal in ubuntu studio. Code: 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Core Processor DRAM Controller [8086:0044] (rev 12)

I have a simple log file which is very messy and I need it to be neat. The file contains log headers but are all jumbled up together thereforeI need to sort the log files according to the log headers. There are no static number of lines that means that there is no fix number of lines for the each header of the text file. And I am using AWK to sort out the headers.The Log files goes something like this:
Code:
