Software :: Script For Copying Files From One Location To Another?
Feb 10, 2010I'm working on a little bash script for copying files from one location to another, while sending the verbose output of cp to a text file.
how can I append a time stamp to the verbose lines in the log file.
The command:

Again, I want to know how I make the time stamp appear in front of the line inside of the log.txt.
Installation :: Running SLAX From RAM (Fast Access To Data)
May 14, 2009Before the other day, I'd copied a live CD to ramdisk and run it from there before, but the disk was INX (INX is not X), a live CD based on Ubuntu that runs entirely in the text mode, no GUI. INX is a terrific product: colorful, educational, light, agile, fun to use, and and often damned useful, but when an OS only uses text, you may not notice how much running from the RAM speeds up an OS. Previously, I'd assumed that the best reason to run a Live CD from the RAM was to free up the CD ROM drive. When I started running a full KDE 3.5.10 Desktop from the RAM, it didn't take me long to notice the awesome boost in speed and performance.
The computer has the fastest access to the data that's in the RAM. (The "A" in "RAM" stands for "access", right?) So the machine is faster. As the RAM gets larger, I'm sure more and more live CDs are going to offer the RAMdisk option. Right now both INX and SLAX share the characteristic of being exceptionally small CDs, and that makes them well suited for this kind of application. The "minimal" version of Slax, the basic CD without any modules added, is less than 200 mbs, which fits very nicely on my 1024MB RAM. I now use the minimal SLAX cd to initiate the system, and I keep a collection of the modules on my hard drive to copy to the RAM and activate at will.
Here's a couple of screenshots: [URL] I'm using Wine here to run my one and only favorite Windows program, a text to speech program called READ PLEASE. Note that I am also running KTorrent, which is uploading from and downloading to my external MyBook hard drive. [URL]. Here's a shot of yakuake, which is sort of like Konsole with superpowers. I just upgraded my hard drive KDE system to 4.2.3, and they still haven't fixed Yakuake yet. I know it's been reported, so I'm sure it'll be taken care of.
Programming :: Saving File Data Using Python In An Embedded System In An Safe And Fast Way?
Apr 19, 2011I am developing a program in a system where the Linux does not take care of the sync command automatically. So I have to run it from my application always I save some data in the disk, which in my case is a 2GB sdcard. It is true that I can make the operation system takes care of the syncronization, using a proper mount option, but in this case the programm's performance drops drastically. In particular I use the shelve module from Python to save data that comes from a socket/TCP connection and I have to deal with the potencial risk of the system being turned off suddenly Initially I wrote something like that to save data using shelve:
Code:
def saveData(vo)
fd = shelve.open( 'fileName' , 'c')
fd[ key ] = vo
fd.close()
os.system("sync")
But that takes too much time to save the data. Note that I use the sync from the OS every time I close a file to prevent data corruption in the case of the "computer" being turned off with data even in the buffer. To improve the performance I made something like that:
Code:
def saveListData( list )
fd = shelve.open('file_name', 'c')
for itemVo in list:
fd[itemVo.key] = itemVo
fd.close()
os.system("sync")
Thus, first I saved an amount of objects in a list then I open the file and save the objects. In this way I have to open the file just one time to save a lot of objects.However I would like to know if adding a lot of objects before closing the file would increase the risk of data corruption.I known that turning off the system after fd.close() and before os.sync may cause problems. But what about turning off the system after
Code:
fd = shelve.open('file_name', 'c')
but before fd.close()?
Fedora :: 13 Copying Data Very Slowly To External HDD?
Jun 23, 2010I have Western Digital 1 TB external HDD. I had slackware 13 and it could copy data to it with speed around 30 MB/s (copy from machine to HDD) and it was cool. It's usb 2.0 as KInfoCenter says. But now in fedora 13, it's like 1 MB/s or even less (KInfoCenter still says usb 2.0). Any special mount option to set in fuseblk to speed it up? I mean something like blksize or like that?
Code:
/dev/sdc1 on /media/My Book type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096)
Fedora :: Copying CDs / DVDs (Video And Data) In Raw Mode
Dec 10, 2009I'm trying to find out which application will copy DVD discs (video and data) in raw mode. Something that works for DVDs like cdrdao works for CDs. I tried using cdrdao but it errors out because the DVD disc is too big for it. I tried looking at Brasero but I can't tell if it offers a raw option. I see that Brasero lets you copy a DVD to a RAW image, then burn the RAW image back to a DVD-R. If Brasero uses RAW mode to do a direct copy, this would essentially do the same thing, but I can't tell if that is what it does. But, I think this will work.

Programming :: Copying Data To Clipboard Using OSF/Motif, C++, And XRT Table?
Dec 23, 2010I am working on an application in Motif and C++, which uses an XRT Table. With the XRT Table being an infrequently used product, it is hard to find good documentation on it, and one area in particular is sorely lacking... a good explanation on how to copy text from the table to the clipboard used by other X11 applications. I've come across an example application that demonstrates how to copy text to the clipboard, but I cannot seem to merge that knowledge with what I'm provided with the XRT Table API. Does anyone have any knowledge in using the XRT Table, and in particular, with copying selected fields within the table to the clipboard?

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Copying Data Setup Tells About An Input/Output Error?
Dec 20, 2010I want to install Xubuntu 10.10 x64, but it does not work. While copying data the setup tells me about an Input/Output error, but i don't think there are hardware errors.
The environment:
AMD Phenom II 1055t 6x2,8 Ghz
2x 2gb ram
Hitachi 1TB hard drive
Two partitions: 1st for Windows 7 Ultimate (NTFS), 2nd for my Data (NTFS)
So I decreased the size of the data partition and created two new partitions beside the Win7 partition and the data partition. The first is ext4-journal (20gb) the second is Swap (4gb). I've done that all by the Xubuntu setup.
I've downloaded the image from the german mirror (TU Chemniz) and checked the integrety via SHA1. Checksum was correct. I also checked the data after burning.

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Copying Lots And Lots Of Data (and Preserving Emblems)?
Oct 26, 2010I am currently in the process of moving around 20TB of data from one server to another. Security is not a concern, since the data are freely available to anyone on our network anyway. There are a couple of things that I'm trying to decide on:
(1) protocol choice
Of all the choices I have--nfs, ftp, scp, rsync, samba--has anyone done any benchmarking to show which would be the fastest/most robust transfer protocol? I know nfs has slow write speeds for synchronous transfers. Asynchronous would be faster, but less robust. I'm leaning toward rsync since it performs md5sums to confirm the file transfers. (Remember if there's a 1 in a billion chance that a byte will get corrupted, then I'll have 20,000 corrupt bytes in the transfer.)
(2) Nautilus emblems
We use emblems in Nautilus to categorize files. The old and the new server have the same directory structure.Is there any way to copy the Nautilus emblems from the old server to the new server. What I want is that if a user had marked a particular file with a star on the old server, then that file would be marked with a star on the new server when he/she logs in.

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: OpenMotif : Create Network Location Link As Local Filesystem Location?
Apr 26, 2011I'm working with a program that uses Open Motif to create all of the widgets, including the Open File dialog box (obviously). However, Open Motif being kinda old-timey, 80's vintage, and for the most part now an abandoned project, it is quite clunky. So, actually what I need to do is to open some files located on my work server. I have already successfully connected to the relevant server directories with Samba, and with programs built with GTK+ (such as GIMP) I can open files across the network because I have created a bookmark in Nautilus, and those bookmarks appear in the Open File dialog box created by GTK+. Now, Open Motif is different: it doesn't see network locations, orNautilus shortcuts. When I type "smb://serveripyadayada" in the search folder, it really doesn't like it and complains. So, what do I do? Can I get somehow Open Motif to open a network location? Or can I do a run-around and place a shortcut in the file system that points to the network location?

General :: Command Line - Looking For A Fast CLI Distro?
Apr 26, 2011I'm looking for a fast Linux distro to put on a USB key. The goal is to be able to boot in as few seconds as possible, with just enough to mount a hard drive and do some basic operations in there (bash would be enough).
I do need:
x86 and x86_64 support
EXT2/3 and NTFS mounting capabilities (read & write)
Networking support (/etc/network/ config is fine, no need for detection) Bash (another shell would also work, but I would have to modify some of my scripts I would prefer if I didn't to have to build these programs for the selected distro, but that's always an option. I do not need:
X, or any form of GUI
more languages (english is enough)
anything not mentioned
I don't care about the size on the USB key, but the bigger it is, the longer it will take to load. My research pointed me towards these distros, but I not sure which one to choose:
ttylinux
Tiny Core Linux
tomsrtbt (doesn't look maintained anymore)
I also found these tools I could use to build my own distro (as a last resort)
General :: Choosing A Fast And Powerful Distro?
Feb 4, 2011I've been using linux for a while (various distros) but somehow they dissapointed me. I know what I'm looking for, a lightweight, fast, minimalist but customizable enough, with no specific graphical environment, bleeding edge distro for a new laptop (used for studying and surfing internet), that hopefully works with my hardware.
I want to have the possibility to compile from source to make my own changes but also to install from binaries easily. I'm not a linux expert, not even an advanced user but I'm willing to learn anything to get my distro running so I'm not looking for a full out of the box distro. It would be great if this distro also had a good community.
