General :: How To Install Downloaded Files - MKDir Command

Jan 11, 2010

"You'll probably want to operate from inside your home directory. If your user is (for example) username, your home directory will be /home/username/. For the rest of this section we will assume you have downloaded your zip file to /home/username/src. If you do not have a src directory, you can create it with the following "mkdir" (make directory) command:"

Where do the commands go? I cant make it work in terminal. How do I get back to "home" from where i am now? example /home/mydesktop/. I am working in mydesktop. I have downloaded some packages that pkcon search will not find, but when I try to install them using "synaptic" it cant find the packages i dl. So I found this tutorial.

"So, we have our source package in /home/username/src/.
Change to the /home/username/src/ directory with the "cd" (change directory) command like so: cd /home/username/src/
but I dont know where to write the commands.

General :: Mkdir In Bash Script - Command Substitution

Jun 26, 2010

I was to set up a cronjob that sends its output to a logfile, i want that log file to be unique. the easiest way to set this up would be to make the directory in the script, then output the command to that directory, they call that directory via is full path in cron (because cron only uses full path names.

This does not work

keep in mind the command "/bin/mkdir -p /tmp/pw_log/`date +20%y%m%d_%H%M%S`.log" works fine on the command line - but once I put it in the shell, it does not work.

General :: Use Mkdir Command To Create 'local' Directory In /usr - There Are Error - Cannot Make Directory

Jun 16, 2010

I am a student studying computer science course.

Well, I am facing problem when doing lab questions.

I must use DLXLinux bundled in Bochs (bochs.sourceforge.net).

I am required to use the /usr/local directory.

In /usr directory, there is no directory named 'local' but there is one thing called 'local@'. So, when I try to use mkdir command to create 'local' directory in /usr , there are error "cannot make directory.....".

Look at my screenshot at [url].

Ubuntu :: Can't Install Downloaded DEB Files?

Aug 2, 2011

Just installed Ubuntu 11.04 32-bit on an older Dell D610 laptop. Everything was running a little slow but all in all running fine except one thing - I downloaded the Chrome deb file and also the deb file from Moneydance. When I double-click on either of these deb files, it opens up the Ubuntu Software Center and shows an 'Install' button for the app. I click Install and then enter my root password, then nothing happens. A short while later the Install button turns from grayed out to clickable again. So I click it again, and it says that the deb file is not packaged correctly.

I've tried it with multiple deb files now and get the same thing. Installing directly through the Ubuntu Software Center works fine, but unortunately Chrome and Moneydance aren't in there (I prefer Chrome to Chromium). What could be causing this?

Also - due to the slowness of the Ubuntu install I did a clean install to Xubuntu and I like that much better and it is running perfectly except for this issue of not being able to install any 3rd-party downloaded apps.

General :: Cannot Browse Files Downloaded Or Copied Across Network

Jan 9, 2010

I have ran into a permissions problem. It seems that any file I have created with Fedora I can browse to in Firefox. I cannot browse to files that I have downloaded from the internet or copied locally across our network. I changed file permissions to 755 and 777 for these files. I even thought that maybe it was the php file content that was causing the issue. So, I copied the file content from file 2 into file 1. File 1 was the file I could always browse to since I created it in Fedora. I could still browse to file 1 after it had file 2's content.

I look at the permissions and they appear the same for both files. I am not sure why I cannot open the other files. I downloaded phpMyAdmin. I cannot hit any of these files in a browser. I also copied some files from a a backup location we have internally. I cannot browse to any of these files either. I used chmod 777 filename. Even after doing that I could not hit any of the files. I moved the files into my document root directory ( /var/www/html ) and I still cannot browse to these files.

General :: Downloaded Files Saving Above And Behind The Panel Menubar?

Apr 26, 2011

I download a file to my laptop desktop, it saves above and behind the panel menubar (Applications / Places / System). As such, the files aren't easily accessible.How might I ensure that downloaded files are visible on the screen and not 100px above & behind it? Perhaps related, I've got a second monitor attached to the laptop (primary). It seems this second monitor's resolution is affecting where downloaded files are put...out of sight.

Primary laptop: Dell Vostro 1310. Resolution = 1280x800
Secondary monitor: Acer 19-inch LCD Flat Panel. Resolution = 1280x1024.

I've tried all the settings in Monitor Preferences to no avail. Searched Google without luck. Currently on Ubuntu 10.10 and the system is (according to Update Manager) up-to-date.

General :: Mkdir Fails - Even With -p - No Such File Or Directory

May 30, 2010

The setup ( although dont trust anything I say ):

I'm working on an embedded system device using a NFS mounted rootfs ( as shared by my host ) , but I store large video content directly on the device's hdd in /data.

Device's hdd partition /dev/sda3 is ext3 fs mounted at /tmp/mnt/diska3 (rw), then I have a script create dirs like /tmp/mnt/diska3/data and /tmp/mnt/diska3/data/incoming, then symlink :

ln -s /tmp/mnt/diska3/data /data so that the /data appears like any other directory.

I can see /tmp/mnt/diska3/data/incoming. I did chmod -R a+w tmp to rule out permissions.

Running a subsequent script calls mkdir: mkdir -p /data/incoming/gui

BUT fails: mkdir: cannot create directory '/data/': No such file or directory

Fedora :: SWF Viewer For Downloaded Files?

Is there a stand-alone SWF viewer I can use to view downloaded SWF files on Fedora please? I know there's a browser plugin, but it does not have any controls to pause or rewind the file - it just plays the SWF file from start to end. I've tried using Mplayer, but it does not appear to support playing SWF files.
