I would like to transfer the data from Palm desktop on my windows vista laptop to my Linux netbook. The pda has stopped working so I cannot sync directly from pda to either computers.
Is this possible and if so what software do I need for the Linux and how do I do it, I would need step by step instructions as I am new to Linux and really only use it for web-browsing and skype.
I have a number of queries but will start with one. I presently operate 11.04 Classic (no effects). OS is NOT set up as dual boot. As I am considering purchasing a new Desktop, I am wondering what is the best way to recover such things as folders, Firefox bookmarks etc. for four users.
I do have a external HDD which I guess could be used for a possible backup if that is the way to go! The new computer will probably have Windows 7 installed with which I assume I would probably dual boot.
Transfer a file from my webbook (Ubuntu Hardy) to my palm phone.I know that the gnome-pilot application is there and it appears to synch my contacts with evolution however, from the forums it should be possible to transfer files by dragging them to the synch icon but this doesn't appear to happen.
I tried to look it up in the manual from the terminal: man gnome-pilot.This help file is a four liner which directed me to usr/share/ but there aren't any entries there other than conduit configuration files and what looks like a glade gui layout. pilot-xfer just gives me a 'command not found' or equivalent message.
I have just started to learn Java programming and need to be able to use a compatible notepad equivalent in Ubuntu i will need to save the data as is,in Ubuntu and be able to transfer the data from my Linux machine to the windows desktop regularly via memory stick i absolutely love Linux and don't want to have to go back to windows to do this.
View 5 Replies View Related1. The data got wiped off the Zire but hopefully is still in the Windows side of a dual-boot. Can Ubuntu 10.04 pull all the data from the Windows side of my dual-boot or can i copy&paste it into Ubuntu?
2. I think this link shows where the data is supposed to be but have not dared to look there yet.

3. I don't know how to set-up the Zire in Ubuntu.
4. I don't know how to sync data between the Zire and Ubuntu and can not even remember how to do this in Windows either. I can't remember what i did on the Zire to allow it to sync.
5. I don't know how to look-up the model number of the Zire. On the back of the case it says "m150"
I have actually been struggling with this for quite a few days so any links to nudge me in the right direction might be a huge help. Mostly things just seem to work quite easily in Ubuntu 10.04

For example I am copying data to USB-flash drive using some file manager. When the file manager shows that transfer is complete, flash drive indicator continues to light. As far as I know this is some kind of caching system...
1. Is it OK to close file manager when transfer window is closed but the flash drive indicator continues to light (data is still being copied)?
2. Is it better if I turn off this caching technology?
I build a new test machine where i need to bring data from live machine. the data is kind of flat files and some propreitary application axigen mail server.
now what i am suffering from, which commands to do first practise. there is remote site with 1mps speed of wireless between live and test machine. on daily basis aprox 14gb .tar.gz files it need to move it.
i found scp,rcp,rsync,sftp etc. which is fastest way to replicate or copy to remote machines.
the data is on live machine /var/opt/application and on remote same directory too /var/opt/application
i try using scp it take aprox 8-10 hours to copy single 14gb file.
if possible where to see such commands logs results, if anything get down error discontinue while copying.
anyone know why this would happen? I ran the following dd command:
Code:
dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=hard/old_dell_desk_part1.img
a USB external drive was mounted to the 'hard' directory with the standard mount command. it is a ntfs-3g filesystem. it is a mechanical drive.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using an embedded platform in which I have connected an external harddisk (/dev/sda). The SCSI driver is present and I am using the SG_IO interface for performing the SMART commands with the Hard Disk. (Unfortunately not all the HDIO ioclts are present. So I opted for the SG_IO ioctl). But the data transfer (reading/write data from/to sector) is not working with the SG_IO ioctls. So I searched for some other options. Later in one of the places, I found that we can actually mount the /dev/sda to some mount point in /mnt and then make a XFS file system (mkfs.xfs) of this.
And then we can create the directories and do file operations on this mounted directory. Here the simple read/write systems calls can be used for this. I was thinking about this implementation. But I am confused how I can map the actual LBA (Logical Block Address) to the device file offset. I mean if I want to write to the sector 5, there will be a LBA for it. So I can do lseek on my device and then write the data there. So how the mapping between LBA and device file offset can be calculated.
So I have a system that is about 6 years old running Redhat 7.2 that is supporting a very old app that cannot be replaced at the moment. The jbod has 7 Raid1 arrays in it, 6 of which are for database storage and another for the OS storage. We've recently run into some bad slowdowns and drive failures causing nearly a week in downtime. Apparently none of the people involved, including the so-called hardware experts could really shed any light on the matter. Out of curiosity I ran iostat one day for a while and saw numbers similar to below:
[Code]...
Some of these kinda weird me out, especially the disk utilization and the corresponding low data transfer. I'm not a disk IO expert so if there are any gurus out there willing to help explain what it is I'm seeing here. As a side note, the system is back up and running it just runs sluggish and neither the database folks nor the hardware guys can make heads or tails of it. Ive sent them the same graphs from iostat but so far no response.
I use jpilot on opensuse 11.3 64bit to sync pim data with my Palm Treo 680 via bluetooth. This worked fine until today. Now I get the following error message when I try to sync: Syncing on device bt: Press the HotSync button now dlp_ReadSysInfo error Exiting with status YNC_ERROR_PI_CONNECT Finished.
The last successfull sync was on the 20th October and today is the 24th October. I did not change any settings in jpilot or on my palm device. So I guess there must have been an update of opensuse which causes this error. But I do not now how to look up the updates during this period or how to undo them. Was there an update between the 20th and the 24th Oktober, which might affect either jpilot or bluetooth functionality?
I was given a Linux Asus eee PC 4G Netbook. I know nothing about Linux, but I know if I use it, I will create documents that I need to put on my PC for a permanent record. Also, can I transfer a document written in Word to my Linux Netbook. I know these are kind of stupid questions, but I was unable to find the answer after an hour of net surfing.

Recently I had a situation where I had to transfer data from a PC to a Mac. Usually we simply convert the data as necessary, ie. bookmarks, contacts, etc. move the info to a dropbox account and use Windows networking to access the dropbox from a Mac. Well, there was a network issue and it was suggested that I boot to Ubuntu and do this. We do have Ubuntu on a flash drive but I was lost from there. Can anyone point me in the direction of documentation or assist me in understanding how this would be accomplished? I have a Mac, PC and Linux box at home so hopefully I have all the necessary tools to test this out.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am quite newbie with Linux networking and I want to know if there exist a log in Linux where errors during transfers are stored. I mean, when I'm transferring data between two hosts is there any way to log somewhere (where?) the errors or warning during the transfer? That is, connection failures, TCP or UDP errors, etc.? Is there any "log level" to select the errors to be displayed in the log not to work with a huge log file?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm going to be needing to copy over 2 terabytes from one drive to another in a couple of days and I need something that I can use to transfer the files with CRC checking. Something comparable to Teracopy in Windows.
Open Source is an absolute must. I'm running on Debian and getting away from Windows to get away from all of the proprietary software. If it's going to be proprietary I might aswell just boot back into Windows as far as I'm concerned.
Some of the features that would be nice but not needed
-GUI (preferably gtk)
-Pause/Resume (it's going to be a long transfer so it would be nice.)
Those would be nice but CRC checking is an absolute must have for so much data.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor the past few days, i have been trying to fix a common error related to mtp devices such as creative zen. Because of the new updated libmtp8 library, it is impossible to transfer files into any mtp devices. However there is a fix that will remove this issue.
1. Get the older karmic version of libmtp8 from here: URL...
2. Install this package from terminal using: sudo dpkg -i libmtp8*.deb
3. Lock libmtp8 from the synaptic package manager, so it doesn't get updated.
4. Uninstall and then downgrade any mtp packages (through packages.ubuntu.com) that become broken after step 2 to the karmic version.
5. Enjoy.

I am doing a project where 2 clients connect to server and communicate (chat) and transfer data one after other using sockets. I have working code for this in C language. Now our main aim is to create a communication link where two clients transfer multiple streams data parallely. To be more precise i want to transfer images files and audio files parallel at same time, so is it possible to send data parallel using one socket connection?
