General :: What Does An Arrow ('->') Symbol Mean On Command Line?
Jul 5, 2010
I'm working with Terminal (Mac OS X), but I think this is a built-in part of Linux. Sometimes, when I execute a command, Terminal returns a new, indented line with just -> on the line. It seems like it's waiting for something, but I don't know if it requires action on my part or not. Pressing enter simply returns another, identical line. When I Ctrl + C, it says Aborted, meaning something was clearly processing.

I'd like show a certain line or lines of a file with context, kind of like a unified diff, on the command line in Linux:
$ (something) -l 154 stuff.py
150: def foo(bar):
151: """

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 am working on research using a USB wireless card (WUSB600N) which works by a driver from Ralink (rt3572). In order to achieve my task, I am trying to modify that driver. One of the ways, I tried to call a function written in different module from that which I am working in. Every thing went fine (make & make install) until the modprobe command when i got (Unknown Symbol) about that function. I tried many ways to solve that problem like; Export_Symbol, and function pointers but, with no results!

Apache doesn't start with libedit.so.0.0.34 ( from libedit0-3.0.snap20090923-4.1.x86_64 ).
Code:
[Tue Dec 15 16:20:51 2009] [warn] Init: Session Cache is not configured [hint: SSLSessionCache]
PHP Warning: Directive 'register_long_arrays' is deprecated in PHP 5.3 and greater in Unknown on line 0
/usr/sbin/httpd2-prefork: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libedit.so.0: undefined symbol: tgetent
Solution: I copied /usr/lib64/libedit.so.0.0.27 from a previous install and symlinked /usr/lib64/libedit.so.0 to it.

ive made a slight mistake on my Ubuntu 9.10 64bit. I was trying to get Voodoo Motion Tracking software to work, and it was having trouble locating some Qt Libs, so I decided it was a good idea to move its included libs into /user/lib32 directory. Voodoo now works, but Skype instead comes up with:
Code:
skype: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib32/libQtDBus.so.4: undefined symbol: _ZN14QObjectPrivate15checkWindowRoleEv Skype was installed using their own provided 64bit .deb - it was previously working fine.

The most recent update impacted my thunderbird-3.0. When launched I get these error messages
/usr/lib/thunderbird-3.0.3pre/thunderbird-bin: Symbol `SSL_ImplementedCiphers' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking
/usr/lib/thunderbird-3.0.3pre/thunderbird-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libnssutil3.so.1d: undefined symbol: PL_ClearArenaPool
I can only assume the libnssutil3 library was upgraded and this broke the library call in the thunderbird-3.0.

I have a perl script which was written for me by a professional (I have some basic knowledge), is working fine at the moment but on moving it to a different server as I'm changing a server (new server is shared and supports perl modules), I get the following message"Global symbol "$psid" requires explicit package name at admin.pl line 16". I get this for every single one for my values for the whole script which is about 2000 lines. Same error messages for main and admin.I haven't changed anything on moving it to the new server apart from the first line which is the location of the perl.I thought it would be too much to post the whole script here but anyone has any idea why is doing it taking into account that it works on a different server?

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 typed in sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and it tells me it's already installed. Good. So it should work. I type sudo/etc/init.d/gdm start and the screen goes blank for 8 seconds three times in a row and then back to the command line. I have also tried gdm start without the path before and it says GDM already running. Aborting! I have 8.10 and it's a valid disk (no errors).
