General :: Lines Are Blurring On Related Forums

MacBook Pro 5.2 running OSX 10.5 Snow Leopard Disk /dev/sda - 500 GB / 465 GiB - ATA FUJITSU MJA2500B. I formatted my existing partitions with boot camp in OSX to delegate 32 Gig to a space where I intended to install Ubuntu 10.1 along side OSX. I installed Ubuntu 10.1 and now my dual boot option has vanished and the following is what I'm getting from test disk:

I can recover my old partition configuration and not loose any data, as the lines are blurring on the related forums for this exact situation and my desire is to not make things worse with "trial and error".

After the completely new installation of Fedora 15 the letters are ugly in comparison with FC 14, no matter which font. It doesn't help to set anti-aliasing manually. The edges of the letters leave blurring.

I've come across an unusual requirement for a service in my Ubuntu system.Simply put, I need to find a way to search for all instances of a term in a file, delete lines containing containing that term, and delete four lines below each instance of that term. ither that, or copy the entirety of a file to a new file and skip over all lines containing the term plus four below it.This sounds kinda weird, I know. Without going too far into detail, I either have to change the logfile format for a server I'm running which is a huge pain in the butt, or I can just run a script to edit an HTML report generated from said logs. (Said report is really just for managers to peruse, and I like my log format, so I'm pursuing option 2.)

After building a new system I have been getting kernel panics randomly. I have been able to look at /var/log/messages and determine that either my RAID card, XFS, or something along those lines is causing the problem. It has now gotten bad enough that any heavy use of the RAID will cause it to panic and die.
There is one large file on this that I need which is not on my backups but when I try to get it off, the transfer will cause a kernel panic within minutes. What is causing the panic? Is there any way to resolve it? The RAID card is an LSI SAS3081E-R and I am using the built in drivers/modules within Ubuntu 10.04 x64 (pretty sure the kernel itself has the driver included). There is source available for the driver from LSI's site but I'm not sure if that will solve the problem and in addition to that, I can't figure out how to compile and install it. It has a Makefile already but make just complains "no targets".
Code:
Jun 21 13:00:22 cyan kernel: [ 706.206498] ffff88019652daf8 ffff88018ff61698 ffff8801935ddd50 ffffea00038f6650

I have a box that has been running fine for a few years primarily as apache/tomcat/mysql server.Just recently, it has started spitting out a bunch of messages and shutting down.The computer is running FC11, x86x64.If anyone can glean anything from the messagesIf you need any more info, let me know. I can get someone to start it up, and get as much as I can before it crashes.From looking at the messages, it seems like it could be something going on with the swap, but I'm not sure.The messages are below.(The box is on the other side of the country from me, so I don't have a ton of info, and it's hard for me to get someone to physically restart it for me...so it's kind of a pain.)(You'll see a lot of errors related to SSHD. I don't know if that's because SSHD is the culprit, or if it's because I was connected using SSH. For some reason I'm leaning towards it being something other than SSHD.)
Code:
setroubleshootd[2852]: segfault at 33cb1fe909 ip 00000033caf06e8d sp 00007fffe4bf4ec0 error 4 in libpython2.6.so.1.0[33cae00000+165000]

I've noticed that some users post here and that the forums put the little fedora icon on their post so it recognizes what distro they are running. I have a default install of Fedora 15 and all I get is a penguin for generic linux. I know in the grand scheme of things this is not important at all, however it's the little things that add up sometimes so I'd like to know how did you do it.

I want to use smartd for monitoring my hard disk regularly. What is the interaction of smartd with the hard disk driver that is in use. Whether the hard disk driver should be smart enabled or only the hard disk. Will any one help me in this.

I just installed 11.4 x86_64. Using FF beta 4, I can get to the Main Page - openSUSE and log in there, but when going to the forums, it doesn't recongnize my login and I cannot log in through the link.
I wonder why FF4 Beta is the default install for 11.4.

I'm attempting to learn 'processing', the language used on the Arduino but I am having a bad time finding resource because of the poorly chosen name. What I am trying to do is open a pipe to another process/program to use as input to the processing plot program I am writing. I found processing.org but that site is not very helpful. There is plenty of examples of reading from an Arduino from the serial port but I want to read from a program running on my laptop. Both the plot and data accumulator program in the same PC.

These forums won't let me post using an iPad. I can visit this page, no problem, but when I try to add or edit a post, it just doesn't work. The edit page appears, but when I tap in the main textarea field, nothing happens. I expect the virtual keyboard to slide into view and a cursor to appear. This does not happen. In fact, if the keyboard is visible prior to tapping in the text area, then the keyboard slides out of view when the textarea is tapped. It's kind of awkward, having to wait until I get near a desktop machine before I post anything.

SuSE SLES10, 32 bit. I have an app which crashes with general protection often.
There is message every time in /var/log/messages:
2010-10-22T08:49:49.350476+02:00 HostName kernel: ProgramName[28023] general protection rip:404575 rsp:7fffc5656270 error:0
How do I establish relation between this message and source code? Error was observed on another host where some tests were running, now license is expired and I can't get more info nor core dump. I have to investigate what I have and try to reproduce it locally. Unfortunately original binary was stripped.Now I prepared non-stripped version. Does it has the same addresses for function as original? Is it possible to use symbol information for finding where RIP points to?

I have been experiencing a problem where the screen loads and after initial first few lines breaks up into multiple repetitions of lines. Reloading helps but has to be repeated when pageing down. Mail is no problem; it is supplied by my network provider. OS is openSUSE 11.2 which I update when advised. Below is a sample from the error console:

I have this massive table file with some data in it and I want to replace some lines that are wrong with the correct ones that are in another table file of the same format. The wrong lines are not all together in a block but randomly distributed so I need to make a loop checking if the line is in the other file and if it is, replace it. I want to try and do it with sed or awk but I don't really know how to....

I need to know what commands we have people run in the terminal in order to help them troubleshoot their issue. The reason being, is I was reading a thread where someone was stating about how they had to do all this and all that from a terminal and what not and that there should be a GUI Tool.
Well I'm going to make a GUI tool that allows them to obtain all the necessary information (and fixes are possible too) to help with their issue that they're currently having. For example: I know we run lsmod for sound issues, but what other commands do you have them run to check sound, video, network, etc. It will be made in wxPython so that it can be easily sent to others. If it becomes quite useful, then maybe we could get it in the repos.

One thing that really bothers me about Slackware is the lack of unified, well maintained, and up-to-date documentation, but what keeps me coming back is the outstanding community. I see a lot of community contributions floating around on these forums, but they often get buried in all the questions and other posts people create. I know there's a search feature, but sometimes it's fun to browse an organized list of the community's work and see if I find anything fun or interesting.
Back when I used Arch Linux, one of my favorite stops at the forums was the Community Contributions section. The FreeBSD forums also have a section for user-contributed HOWTOse should have a section like this. Call it "Contributions" and place it by the "Installation" section at the top of this forum. It would provide a great place for users to check out what the other slackers have come up with without making a thread of their own to ask (which will probably result in many duplicate threads) or digging up an ancient thread.The only new threads allowed there could be a HOWTO, a new process or method a user discovered, or a user-made script/program/etc. Of course, other users should be able to comment with their replies for suggestions and/or improvements.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 on an old small form factor PC with an AMD Sempron 2400, 1GB RAM, and an nVidia 5200 graphics card 128MB. OK, so a low-spec machine (but that's the great thing about Linux right? Don't need high-end h/w) but it works just fine, except that it can't play full HD (1920x1080) MPEG-4 video. Very jerky and lots of dropped frames. Same in both Movie Player and VLC.
I can't afford to increase the RAM and as it's a SFF I can't just swap the mobo and CPU for something faster so I'm wondering whether getting a higher spec graphics card would make any difference?I'm using the nVidia proprietary binary driver (latest version) and searching the forums I found a post where someone said that the nVidia driver needs at least a 512MB card for HD video.A colleague has a higher spec nVidia card (7600 IIRC) that he'll sell me, but before I spend any money, is this likely to improve things? How much does the graphics card affect performance, or is it simply a case of the machine overall just isn't high enough spec?

We've been using CentOS on our servers for many years, and remain happy customers. Been considering also using CentOS for desktops, since there's some advantages in standardisation. Also wondering whether CentOS really does belong on desktop. Perhaps its instructive that there's no "Desktop" section in these CentOS forums. Maybe a message buried there.
I'm finding that CentOS 5.6 desktop can do most things we need, except support Ipod connection for podcasts.
FLOSS weekly and SecurityNow are part of regular entertainment. gpodder is good in other 'nixes, but seems difficult to install in CentOS. Should I pursue this, or keep using another distro for daily desktops?
