General :: High Level Command Line Program For Burning CDs And DVDs?
Mar 12, 2010
I'm sick of screwing around trying to script a clean solution to burn multiple files and folders to CDs and DVDs with wodim, growisofs and genisoimage.I'm looking for a high level command line program that uses sensible defaults and takes arguments something like this:[program-name] [cd|dvd] /path/to/dir1/ /path/to/dir2/ /path/to/file ...It should then do all the low level copying and ISO generation transparently and just burn the damn disk!Does anyone have any suggestions? I've looked at several programs but it seems there are too many choices to trawl through and not enough information about them online.

I was trying to learn more about xorg configuration and came through an exercise that should be run at run level 3. So, I wrote init 3 in the command line then the x server stopped and the system was trying to enter run level 3 but then it hangs and nothing happens. At that time I was connected to the system via putty and wrote the command init 5 and the x server started again normally. I tried init 3 again and had the same thing.

I have Debian 6 installed on my netbook which I tend to spend more time at a command prompt then gnome so I would like it to boot to the command line with the same services as the default with the option to "startx"
I tried ->
Quote:
1. update-rc.d -f gdm remove
2, Updated inittab
id:3:initdefault: --> from default of 2
No luck.

I am looking for a tool that will tell me, in less than half a second, if the microphone is picking up any sound above a certain threshold. (I plan to then mute the Master channel with another command line tool, like amixer.)

I'm having trouble burning a DVD via command line or Brasero. The DVD Burner is the only IDE Device in the system. Although Disk Utility seems to display it as SCISI. Originally Ubuntu would only see the drive but do nothing when a DVD is inserted it. atleast recognizes the DVD now.

Code:
*-ide:0

I have very limited space on my netbook so i was trying to burn cds using only command line, i would like to use some program like mp3burn , i tried that one and other 2 similar ones but they are very old i think, i tried to make them work for a long time with no success mp3burn was the only one i could burn a cd with but the speed of the audio was increased. i know there are ways to do this using several commands but i rather have a script that does it for me i can burn data cds fine.

For whatever reason, the "Ctrl-Alt-Fn" sequence has no effect on one of my Ubuntu machines; the sequence is interpreted as ordinary input. I need to get the system to a console because I'm trying to do a dist-upgrade and that's going to bounce gdm etc.
Is there some command-line tool that can be used to switch consoles? I have some vague distant memory of that being possible.
(I'm running Ubunty Jaunty at the moment. Yes I know it's old; I'm trying to march forward.)

So, I usually write/find a test case generator for any code that I write. This type of code generally leads to some file output. To be thorough, I try and generate many different files to test my code on.
Say the command is like this:
Is there a way to automate this for many different values of the parameters and generate many different files?
I tried:
I wasn't able to use the $i in the filename, and without it the command gave me no errors, but did nothing else either. I know the Unix command line is very powerful, and I have a feeling that this should be possible, but I just don't know how to do it.

OS: CentOS 5.3 Enterprise Server
Red Hat Nash Version 5.1.19.6
I need to find a command-line program to randomly change my MAC address. I know on Ubuntu there is a program called 'macchanger'. And on Windows another one called 'macshift'. I just can't find one for CentOS 5.3 Enterprise Edition.

What is a simple Dual Layer DVD burning for 32bit Gnome Ubuntu 9.10?
From what I hear Brasero doesn't support it yet. I have heard of GnomeBaker & k3b.
I want a good one that also has PPAs to add to the sources.list

I'm running 10.10, but this seems to be an ongoing problem. While every other OS on the planet seems to be able to high level format LS-120 super floppies in their IDE drive, Linux can't. DR DOS can. OS/2 can. Windows 98 forward can.
We aren't talking low level format here. We are talking "quick" format where a new FAT and label are written to the media along with the high level markings/surface scan.
I can load a disk, copy to it, delete from it, but cannot perform a high level format.

I have just installed pdfocr. Unfortunately it does not have a gui and so in time I will forget how to use it or not remember I have it.
Is there a simple generic program that will browse to where the file is and then run the command line? I suspect python will do it. Could someone point me to a suitable tutorial for this purpose.code...

Any Ideas on a simple program to do this, which I can use in a bash script?

I wrote a simple command line script which is suppose to take my screenshot every 5 minutes.(using ImageMagick's "import" program)
Here is the script (shottr.sh):
This is working fine if I execute by hand i.e:
The script itself is being executed (I hear a voice saying: "Screenshot") but the actual screenshot is not taken.
Be assured that it is NOT permission issue (I placed a simple "touch" invocation and file was created)
May be if it's run from cron...it doesn't have a "window" so it can't take a screenshot from nowhere? If that is the case, then how can I workaround it?

I tried to install Vlc using the terminal (terminal as root). I've used the command aptitude install vlc. Instead of installing only vlc, my gnome desktop environment was removed, gdm was removed, many more programs was removed! What's the command for installing just a single program using the command line? I was used under Ubuntu to use the command sudo apt-get install [***]

I have reinstalled Suse 10.1 as dual-boot with Windows XP. I am now unable to get a program to run from the Linux command line. I am familiar with the program and have had it running previously when the machine was Linux-only. Everything else, e.g.Firefox and Office, work fine in Suse.
[Code]...
The problem occurs with all commands - not just this one. isis3Startup.sh is in green on the screen so I assume I should be able to run it - I have never had any problem when it was installed previously.

ipcalc isn't the one I am thinking of. I remember another one that was a bit better, with more options -- easier to use.I remember that if you gave it a CIDR network /23 and an IP, it would list all of the address ranges, network, broadcast for that network..

Example: In rc2.d I have S99test. In it: Code: #!/bin/sh mplayer -playlist "/music/Thom Yorke - The Eraser" Reboot; hear the loveliness; press pause (lirc setup)...still loveliness.
Login as root; "pkill mplay";hear nothing; "/etc/rc2.d/S99test"; more loveliness; press pause...silence! I know that i the former case, mplayer is assigned (for lack of a proper term) to a session, e.g. tty1. Not so in the latter. But why should a program like mplayer not receive (or ignore?) input from lircd, simply because it doesn't have a session? And how can I get mplayer (or any program run from boot scripts) to work with other programs (like lircd)?
