I am trying to run matlab on a remote mac through my laptop at home, which is a linux-based. I am not able to export the display. Here are the steps I followed.
1. xhost +remotehost
2. Log into remotehost (i.e., the mac machine)
3. export DISPLAY="192.168.2.2:0.0"
4. matlab
But I get the following message,
"unable to open display 192.168.2.2:0.0"
The reason I typed in that ip address in step 3 was that is the ip listed in the "wlan0" block when I typed "ifconfig -a" on my local linux laptop.
I am attempting to "export" the progress bar from wget display using sed. Basically, we have an app that starts wget to download a large file and we want to show a progress bar. Our application has a dbus interface to receive the download progress.
So we were think of a command like: wget [] | sed [] | dbus-send[] The problem at the moment is, how do you get the matched string out of sed and into dbus-send? I can get the progress string by: sed -u 's/[0-9]*%/&/'
This populated '&' with the correct percentage, but I cannot seem to get this out of sed.
I'm new to Ubuntu and I'm remote from the server. I'm setting up an Ubuntu server 10.04 x64. My intention is to load Oracle 11g, however I know I will need to be able to export an X display back to my desktop (Solaris) to run the Oracle installer. What do I need to load to get X working enough to export the display back to myself. I need to provide additional information. Since I'm new I may not have adequately covered what's needed.
I'm using VirtualBox 3.1.2 (r56127) on Linux (Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit). I'm trying to use Export Appliance utility to clone my virtual machines over local network using SMB protocol to NAS. I decided to do it because some machines are larger than free space on my local disk drive - lack of space for the clones. Simply, I specify GVFS path in the folder selection dialog box, for example:
/home/mloskot/.gvfs/mloskot on browarekhd/VirtualBox/clones
The process starts but after a minute or so the VirtualBox throws an error. Here is screenshot with the exact error:
Does it mean export over network is not supported? Does it mean there is a bug in VirtualBox? Or, simply I must not have used GVFS path as the one above as it consists of spaces in mloskot on browarekhd ?
UPDATE: Maciek suggested below to copy vmdk file to NAS manually. Generally, it would work, but as I specify in my question, I can't generate vmdk file (by exporting VM locally first) on my box where I keep all my VMs due to lack of disk space.
The command export is working inside a shell script, but when I type it at the command prompt / terminal it doesn't work. "export: The command not found" error is displayed instead.
I tried this:
cat test.sh
Code:

[code]....
I tried it before on my RHEL system and it was working. I have checked
I have an account in a cluster. In the cluster we have to submit jobs by sgi. After every submission I am getting an an error "can't chdir /export/home/user/". My user account (user) is placed at /export/home/ instead of /home/. I am not understanding what to do. Please help.
I am copying some backup files to a NAS by connecting an NFS export on the NAS to a mount point on my linus box. I then copy the files to it with a cron job that runs nightly. I have mounted the NAS to /mnt/nas. How can I test that the mount point is active before I copy to it? I wouldn't want to copy to /mnt/nas unless it was actually connected to the NAS.
I'm trying to install Gentoo on a virtual machine (VirtualBox installed on my debian squeeze).
My connexion at home is veeery slow, so I wanted to do it at work (don't judge me!), the thing is I' behinf a proxy.
I tried the command
Code: export http_proxy="proxy:port"
but couldn't ping anything. On the other hand, when i use
Code: links www.google.com -http-proxy host:port
that works...
So i was able to download the stage3 file and start preparing the system, but I have some troubles when it comes to use the provided tools (the tool to add a mirror can't retrieve the list for example, and I guess I could not emerge anything either)
How can I export my Ubuntu terminal's color scheme for use on other computers?I've set up a color scheme that I like and I'd like to put it in a git repo for easy loading from other machines. Any strategy that would make it work in other terminal apps too, such as Konsole?

I have the following scenario that doesn't seem to work normally. I have a windows 7 pc from which I am using putty to connect to my other linux servers (all running redhat 5 and 6). So here is the scenario that works and one that does not work. And I'm trying to figure out the one that does not work. Scenario that works:
From windows 7 (putty) I ssh into Linux_Server_1. echo $DISPLAY localhost:10.0
I run xclock and I see it pop up on my windows 7 pc. I am using xming on windows 7 to help me populate the display from linux to windows. One that does not work:
From windows 7 (putty) I ssh into Linux_Server_1. Then from Linux_Server_1 I ssh into Linux_Server_2. echo $DISPLAY <no output>
I try to setup $DISPLAY with localhost:10.0 or 0.0 or even my windows 7 pc ip address:0.0 ....etc Then when I try to run xclock I doesn't work.
I get these error messages: Error: Can't open display: <ip of display>
Also as a side note all our Linux servers are sitting on one subnet. My pc is sitting on another subnet. I use vpn to connect to the subnet where the servers sit from my pc.

i started to play with Oracle VM server (Red hat based) and im really lost with something.
In the server i have a regular user (lets call it "pepe") and the root user.In order to make things work properly, i need to set N user variables with pepe.
The problem is that "pepe" cant execute the command export (The command is not being recognized), but when i run the export command as root, every works as expected.
Any ideas why "pepe" can't reach the export command ?
I need to convert an ODT file to a PDF file in OpenOffice. I cannot use the "export as PDF" option because this is to submit homework, and the teacher will not except it that way. He says it looks crappy. So where can I get a good add-on that does this?
i've updated to oo 3.2.1 in 11.2 (64 bit) by deleting all previous oo packages and installing new. exporting (for example from draw) only gives the option of pdf. no jpeg etc.something's obviously missing but i can't find it. this has been posted back in 2009.

As I said it works from many other distros, but not sure why no go on this one. Can anyone explain this? Should I submit a bug? I noticed portmap is not used anymore and am wondering if thatmay have anything to do with it. The rpcbind is supposed to handle this from what I read..not sure if this is accurate.
