Apr 11, 2011
i am using windows 7 in my laptop and linux is installed on virtualBox but my problem is the screen is showing small in virtualbox is there any way to enalarge the screen to show like windows screen? i did before by using VGA setting but it made problem me i was not able to use GUI interface i meant graphics interface

I just had an ATT Uverse RG installed. However my Smoothwall router that previously worked fine with the ADSL SpeedStream is no longer accepting an address assignment DHCP ip address from this new gateway. (3800HGV-B)Any thoughts ideas or experience working with this hardware? ATT only supports Windows and Mac
I want to install a lineage 2 server on a vps... I have bought it and I have receiver connection details with ssh -.- . It's possible to install graphics interface from bash line because I don't know to set up a l2 server from bash line...
When I do...# iptables -L...I see rules in my INPUT and OUTPUT chains that look scary:ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere...but these rules only apply to the loopback interface. I tested it and the server cannot be reached on open ports from the outside world. How can I make iptables show the interfaces that the rules apply to?Otherwise, every time I do iptables -L it will scare the crap out of me.
I found multiple sites explaining how to add IPs to a network interface as virtual interface like eth0:0. However I can add IPs to an interface as well using the ip command: ip a a 192.168.2.2/24 dev eth0 What I want to know is how I can make this persistent on rhel/centos.
I am using fedora 13 and have installed ettercap from Add/Remove Software in Fedora. But when it is starting(Application->Internet->ettercap), it is not able to detect any interfaces ( i am using eth0 interface, wired lan ).
I'm trying to get yast2 to default to the QT interface. I have used these instructions but each time I run yast from the KDE launcher it still uses the GTK interface. I have also checked that the Yast2-qt package is installed. And have rebooted after setting it up, but it has still not worked.
I know it can work as if I run in konsole /sbin/yast2 it uses the correct interface?
I have a Linux mail server (Fedora). This server was set up long before i joined this organization. Now I have these issues I would request assistance:
1. I am not able to access the Graphical User Interface(gui) on this machine. Startx does not work. I have also tried using combination keys alt+ctrl+f...keys but no progress. As a result am not bale to do some tasks.
2. The clamav that is on the machine has since become outdated. Efforts to update it to latest versions have failed. How do i get to update clamav and protect my system?
3. Because of not being able to access the gui as well as the inability to update clamav have led to my server apparently sending spam mail which in turn have led to my public ip being black listed in a number of sites. Now how can i secure this server so that it stops sending the spam mail and hence avoid future blacklisting?(NB am using postfix and the server sits behind a router which connects to the Internet)
4. I have observed that the server has some iptables rules set but everytime the server restarts the rules stop. I have to manually restart them again to run. How do I sort this?
im currently using a RHEL5 RIS server in my Lab to deploy rhel5 for all my systems. everything has been configured and installation works fine, but i am not able to run the installation in text interface mode. when i type "linux text", i get an error saying invalid kernel parameter. i'll paste my /etc/dhcpd.conf file here. please have a look and let me know what changes i should be making in order for my text interface installation to be working.
I have tried the command on ubantu workstation but it giving error : # mii-tools SIOCGMIIPHY on 'eth1' failed: operationsnot support. no MII interface found.
Internet not working. tell me anonymous of kudzu command in fedora.
I am a big ubuntu fan (9.04) installed,everything went well, installed my network card(s) & the onboard without no problems/installation disc.I have 2 Network interface(s) that I used on windows xP to 'bridge' my connection, because I only have one slot on my router, and the last slot runs into my computer room and from the PC, I run it to the xbox/ps3.No matter what I do, I cannot get ubuntu to share connection to my other network interface.
The following are the output of command "ifconfig -a":
[Code]....
The interface "eth0", which is down, was not displayed, but loopback interface has been displayed. So, how can I make my application display all interfaces, including the interfaces which are down, but excluding the loopback interface?
I have a strange problem regarding networking on the Alix 2d13 running Ubuntu 10.04. The Alix has 3 physical network interfaces, lspci says:
Code: 00:09.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6105M [Rhine-III] [1106:3053] (rev 96) Kernel driver in use: via-rhine Kernel modules: via-rhine 00:0a.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: VIA Technologies, Inc.

It seems, if more than one cable is connected, a random hardware port is chosen as eth0-eth2. If only one cable is connected the port that is connected is chosen as eth0-eth2. Any idea what's going wrong here?
I have an ARM system that has been pre-loaded with some variant of Linux. I don't know the distribution; I can only see the kernel number in dmesg.
In /etc/network/interfaces, I set eth0 to auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp
After I save and reboot (or run ifdown eth0 followed by ifup eth0), I can see that the networking system is searching for a DHCP server and actually obtains a lease on a valid IP address, but when I run ifconfig, the interface has not been assigned the address that it pulled down from DHCP. It has been assigned a 192.168.. address.
I noticed in dmesg that a variable "ip" is passed to the kernel at boot with the same address that is overriding my DHCP address. How can I disable this overriding behavior? I noticed a dynamic environment variable in u-boot called ip. I set it dhcp and saved it to nv storage, but the problem persisted. I tried to set the u-boot environment variable ipaddr to dhcp, but was informed that this wasn't a valid value for the variable.How can I get the interface to be configured through DHCP?
I just wonder, is it possible (using Linux 2.6) to limit overhead done by ethernet interface to one specific core. Ie. I have core2duo CPU, and two ethernet interfaces: eth0 and eth1. Is it possible to move system load caused by packets comming on eth0 to CPU0, so the other core (CPU1) will be idle?
I am using Avast anti-virus for my linux machine. On internet, I found that it has good user interface. After installing avast I can't get the interface. I've to use Avast via terminal. How can I get the user interface??
I had installed a fresh copy of redhat linux 5 but I am unable to use the graphical mode of commands through the graphical mode as,system-config-*I also tried to install system-config-* package through yum but getting the error message that,cannot open file: system-config-*cannot open file: system-config-*
I am a fairly new ubuntu user. I am using ubuntu 10.04 and glade 3 for building a simple interface that uses C. In my interface , I have created two buttons : start and stop .Tofocus on my actual problem , I have created a simpler UI and code. start button runs a while(1) loop and stop should stop the loop .
The problem is , when I press start , the gui freezes and I cannot press any other button. I cant even close my app.After some thorough experimentation, I found out that when I press start, it never comes out of the while loop. I need the loop to keep running until I press stop . What should i do? Here are the functions for the clickable buttons :
i have to control vlc which is running on my pc through console application.I heared like it can be controlled using netcat and rc interface but not getting the procedures how exactly its can be implemented.So if anyone knows pls explain me with steps.i want to do this in windows and i'm using vlc version 0.8.6.
I have posted about 20 Slitaz Video Tutorial I made. I thought it might be helpful for new comers to Slitaz. I've have 2 playlists. One for the GUI interface and one for Text-Mode. Both playlists can be found at:[URL].. Let me know if there is anything you would like me to go over in future tutorials.
I just converted my physical Suse 11 desktop to a virtural machine on an ESX 4.0 server. The machine boots, but there is no GUI interface, as there is one on the physical machine. How do I start GUI from the command line interface?
I understand the software RAID partition types on two physical drives that will be paired must be set to the same size. However,
1. Do the physical drives themselves need to be the same size?
2. Do the physical drives need to use the same interface?
e.g. Can I setup mirroring with one 80G SATA, and one 320G PATA? (And is this reliable/stable?). The use is for an asterisk server which came with the 80G, I can't find anything smaller than 320G for the 2nd drive, and the free connector inside is PATA.
What is the Linux command to clear IP address of an interface without bringing it down and/or restarting network services. Seems strange ifconfig is able to change IP address but has no option to clear it, or am I wrong?
EDIT:As simple as ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0. They should have put it in the man
I just installed Arch Linux with Gnome and gdm is set to boot into gnome as soon as it boots. But I realized that the barebone gnome package that I installed doesn't include a terminal or a text editor so I can't install anything further or modify the rc.conf file to make it boot without gdm.
Is there a way for me to kill x from the Gnome interface?
