Jun 30, 2011I find that the FC 15 Xfce spin will save the user's current session except that it doesn't save what is being done with the Lyx editor. Under FC 15 Gnome 3, I found that after I added the minimize-maximize-close buttons to the top of windows, that some of the windows in Lyx (such as the one that appears for View as DVIPS) didn't respond to those buttons. (I don't remember whether Gnome 3 saved the Lyx session and I've gotten rid of Gnome 3 now.)

Mar 30, 2010Basically I am trying to add a new driver[megasr] into the ISO image, hence performed the following :
1. Mounted the RHEl5.4 ISO image
2. Copied the initrd.img to a temporary directory, performed changes to add the new driver in the modules.cgs, updated the corresponding files and recreated the modules.cgz file module-info modules.alias modules.cgz modules.dep pci.ids
3. Copied back the newly created initrd.img file into the isolinux folder.
I tried to burn the ISO and install it, but it seems that the new driver does not get loaded. I am unaware of any other changes?

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Scripting: Modifying SQL Fields Dynamically?
Feb 22, 2010I'm looking for a way to dynamically modify a fied in the SQL file.
Example,
INSERT INTO `TABLE` VALUES(1AADFDF,DFF33D,10023,SOMEDATA, SOMEDATA);
INSERT INTO `TABLE` VALUES(1AADFDF,DFF33D,10098,SOMEDATA, SOMEDATA);
[code]....
The third field in this SQL file is what needs to change to n+1
"10023" needs to change to "1"
"10098" needs to change to "2"
"10123" needs to change to "3"
"10983" needs to change to "4"
etc...
I tried with awk and sed, but since both require the usage of ' (single quote), my variable fails to get updated. I know i can use cut and recreate the sql statememnt, but i believe there should be easier way using sed or awk. Would anyone know of any creative way to get this to work in one-liner? This needs to be a part of the script preferable without making call to external file.
General :: How To Fix These Two Ubuntu 10.04 Bugs
Aug 17, 20101. Bug one. For some strange reason, my mouse is red only when hovering over a firefox window. All the other time, its white. I have tried to use the built in cursor changer thing, and it seems only capable of changing the cursor for the desktop. Not this strange, magical red firefox cursor. It starts to mess with ya.2. Not really a bug I guess, just a mild annoyance. In windows 7, you have a good deal of play when it comes to where you want to position your icons on the desktop. Not so with Ubuntu 10.04. Its more like windows 95 when it comes to that. Is there some way to solve this? You have like an inch between places you can move icons to. Makes the desktop look ugly, and I would just feel more at home if I could position them correctly. The pic is an accurate representation of this. On the far left, that is as far as the icons can go. And if you want them near each other, they have to sit way too close, or way too far apart. (oh and that pic was before I attempted to change the cursor lol. Now its white when not hovering over FF, red when over FF. Now I'm stuck in that configuration lol)

Oct 19, 2010I installed Intrepid on my netbook a few months ago, and since I'm the only one who uses it I decided to set it to log me in automatically. Unfortunately, I recently realized that for whatever reason, even if I disable screen lock in configuration editor, it still wants my password (which I can't remember for the life of me). To solve this problem, i ranCode:sudo usermod acidicninja --password <new password>Two problems: the new password doesn't log me in, and my root password no longer unlocks root! I'm in deep trouble... is there any way to reset the root password without reinstalling?

Sep 18, 2010How can I become root outside of the terminal? I want to be able to manipulate the file system (i.e. move files, delete files, rename files) in the file viewer GUI (not sure what it's called; I'd say "Windows Explorer" if I were talking about Windows).
Also, how can I manipulate (move, delete, copy, rename) files inside the terminal?
I do understand how to move around (change the working directory) in the terminal, and how to become root in the terminal, and naturally I understand how to move, copy, blah blah blah. I know the basic basics (just letting you know, I'm not the type of person who knows less about computers than a rock does).

Debian Multimedia :: Gconf-editor On Modifying The URL?
Jan 19, 2011I use Debian Lenny and iceweasel as my browser on a gnome core desktop. I also use JFOREX (java application) for my trading platform. It works fine. The problem is when I click on portfolio statement in creates an error which states: "Error in launching web browser". I googled the error on the web and read some sites and it says that I should install gconf-editor and modify the URL handlers in order to point to iceweasel.
The problem is I am practically a noob when it comes to gnome and sadly I am not technical enough to understand the values that needs to be changed using gconf-editor.
