I just upgraded to lucid and discovered a nasty bug. It prevents the system from booting and took me hours to resolve. Now I'd like to report it along with the workaround I found. The only problem is: Where? Other such bugs have been filed against "update-manager", but that's just the GUI calling some scripts which do the real work. so what do I do?What should I substitute for XYZ in

Attempting to install valgrind from Synaptic Package Manager, I get a set of error messages: Packages held back? Broken? etc.
apt-get update; apt-get upgrade report 0 packages held back.
Synaptic Package Manager, clicking on "broken" lists no broken packages.
I keep getting this message while I try to run updates. The Update Manager says I have 35MB to install but it doesn't do it. Can anyone tell me what the problem is and how to maybe fix it? Also, how do I 'report this bug against the update-manager package'?
View 3 Replies View RelatedToday I upgraded my 10.10 to 11.04. Since the last step of upgrading, when it was restarted, I get stucked in consola where it is checking, and there is written fail at stopping automatic crash report generation. How can I repair it. I tried to do
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo reboot
but it doesn't do it properly.
Trying to do the upgrade through "Software Updates", however because there are no current updates, I cannot click on the "Upgrade" button to begin the upgrade process to FC14.
Is there any other way to do this besides downloading the DVD and installing?
one tell me the internal working of kill command. that is how it kills a process internally or from where it picks file to continue its process.

Description of what the code does or what i intended to do:
1. Created a child process from parent process using 'fork()'
2. Sent a signal 'SIGALRM' from child process to parent process using 'sigqueue' function.
(The Third parameter of 'siqueue' function contains the message (message msg) which the child process wants to send to the parent process.'msg' is a stucture instance containing a) pid of child and b) string) 5. Print the 'msg' sent by child process inside the signal handler function 'sig_action_function' of the parent process I am getting some junk value when this line is executed
Code:
printf("%d
",msg->cpid);
I expected to get the pid of child process, which the child process sent to parent process through the signal.

View 1 Replies View Relatedas we all know Process Scheduler does Process scheduling and its a process as well. I was just wondering that if this happens then the Process "Process Scheduler" should be a part of Process queue as well.
So if there are 5 process are there in Process queue & process scheduler is administrating them then since its also a process, once it puts a process under RUN state it should itself go inside queue because at one instant only one process can get executed on a processor. This is quite confusing for me. Please help me out. I tried to search on this but could not find any relevant topics.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am running a Cron job which mails the content of a log report every day. The problem is that the contents are sent as an attachment instead of as the body of the email. The strange thing is that if I run the instructions from the command line everything works fine, but if I do so from the Cron job the log report is attached instead of being sent inline.
The instruction I use is:
Code:
mail -s "logfile for cron" cron@example.com </var/log/cron-log
Following some advice I read on a blog I also tried this instruction in my Cron file, but the result is the same: it works fine from the command line, but attaches the report when run from Cron:
Code:
echo "Content-Type: text/plain;" | mail -s "logfile for cron" cron@example.com </var/log/cron-log
How to ensure the content of the log file is inline?

I have 2 Slackware installs at home, both tracking -current. When 13.37 is officially released I'm considering changing one of those to remain as "stable" for general family consumption. My question is...when the next release comes, how painless and/or successful is the upgrade process. Yes I know of the detailed upgrade instructions by Pat V, and I know I'd have no difficulty executing them.

It's close to full, but not actually full. I can't run a lot of things on this drive because the programs complain that they have no space.
I'm excited to try the new 2.0.1 version of Guile. I'm running Slackware64 13.37 and the latest version of Guile distributed with it is 1.8.8. I see that this new version, as part of it's new capabilities, has a few new requirements. I have built and installed libffi, libunistring and libgc according to their install instructions, but Guile's configure script can't find them.
I have tried manually creating libffi.pc libunistring.pc and libgc.pc files, which has allowed configure to get past the first two, but I still can't determine the correct name for libgc. Further, I am now not confident that Guile will find these where it expects to find them in the end. I would like to ask for some clarification of the install process for this new version of Guile, but I'm not sure whom to ask.
I need to produce a script that will create a report that will be emailed to me that will Log user login activity to detect unauthorized remote access attempts. Where would I start?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just upgraded from F12 to F13 and the result is a mess. From F11 to F12, I*used preupgrade and it worked flawlessly. This time, the process ended on a blank screen. So, I downloaded the DVD and I suppose the files downloaded by preupgarde were used as there were almost no connections to the net during the upgrade process. The problem now is that apparently almost all the FC12 files are still on my system:
rpm -qa | grep fc12
telepathy-stream-engine-0.5.11-1.fc12.x86_64
pbm2l2030-1.4-5.fc12.x86_64
keyutils-libs-1.2-6.fc12.x86_64
apr-util-ldap-1.3.10-1.fc12.x86_64
iwl4965-firmware-228.61.2.24-2.fc12.noarch
rdiff-backup-1.2.8-3.fc12.x86_64

Of course, as I said, the previous upgrade went flawlessly and I didn't check what happened on the system with the rpm and locate commands but I doubt is looked that bad. Seeing what kind of mess my system was turned into, I now worry about the next upgrade.
Does anyone know or have a book on the advanced uses of kickstart and its deployment methods?

I have to admit that I register to LQ after I failed to search for similar solutions.let me see whether I can explain my problem clearly. I need to extract a single report from a big file. The big file looks something like this:
Report for yyyyyy
Your info 999-9999999
End of Report
[code]....
I need to search for a user provided string, say 999-9999999, in the big file. Then I have to extract the single report. My logic is simple,
1) find 999-9999999
2) backward search for "Report for", note down the line number
3) forward search for "End of Report", note down the line number
4) extract the record by using info found from step 2) and 3).
I am trying to do this in bash, with awk and sed (I am new to both).
