Jul 20, 2011i tried to install OpenSuse that I got via a download link that a friend sent me, but its a LiveCD without the installation function at the bootstartup. the only given options are:
Gnome3
Failsafe-Gnome3
Memory Test
Boot from harddrive
there is no installation option. So after that I just ran Gnome3 as a liveCD instead and attempted to install windows xp from a flash from the LiveCD desktop. Because I cannot install XP from boot (it has no bootsector) But I couldnt get the installation to start, because exe's aren't the same thing in linux.
So I downloaded Ubuntu, When booting from the Ubuntu Disc I get "kernel panic not synching VFS..."
so instead I turned my flash into a pendrive, went into the OpenSuse liveCD and attempted to install Ubuntu from within the Live-CD Desktop. but the only setup files I can see are Exe's, and Im not sure how I would go about installing it otherwise. If you have any advice to get this working, or to get a proper Linux installed on my computer So far I have downloaded:
GNOME_3.i686-1.3.0-Build1.3
ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386
Windows XP
Just to add. I have also tried to install WINE and Synergy to OpenSuse, but I do not have a clue on how to install them properly. Upon extracting the tar.bz2 files they both give errors.

Oct 5, 2010The first call to "somefunction" works as expected. The function prints "endfunction" and a process in background sleeps 30 seconds. In the second call I thought it should work in the same way, but the script sleeps 30 seconds before it prints "endfunction".Does someone know the reason of this behavior? Is there another way to do a command substitution of a function that has a background process without have to waiting for that process?

Fedora :: Using 'createrepo' And Building A Local Network Mirror
Aug 3, 2009As the title says I'm trying to build myself a local RPM mirror. I have multiple laptops and a desktop that use Fedora 11. So I used 'rsync' to setup and sync my directories. I next went on to create my repo with the 'createrepo' function. I run my server backend as FreeBSD so I moved my data over there and setup my 'lighttpd' service.
Everything went fine until I used 'rsync' and synced up my data. Am I supposed to run 'createrepo' after each sync? If so, does anyone else use the same kinda setup, even if not FreeBSD, but a different os other than linux for their server that they run this from? I've been dealing with this for 2 weeks now and finally gave up researching and testing and thought. Not something I'm good at doing. Check my register date and my first post date.
Edit: FreeBSD doesn't have a port or unofficial port for this. I noticed it seems to be written as a python script so thought I could somehow get it to run on FreeBSD with linux emulation.
General :: Write Script To Use Function And Still Keep Function Active?
Feb 21, 2010the function terminates if no key is pressed for 10 consecutive seconds. I tried using the -t option as suggested in some forums, but my version of showkey doesn't have the option of changing the timeout. The options I get are:
-h --helpdisplay this help text
-a --asciidisplay the decimal/octal/hex values of the keys
-s --scancodesdisplay only the raw scan-codes
-k --keycodesdisplay only the interpreted keycodes (default).
Is it possible to write a script to use this function and still keep the function active until an interrupt is recieved?
Fedora :: Timer Function Through Command Line?

Mar 26, 2011Ubuntu is a great operating system. It fast, secured and easy to use when compared to most of other operating Systems. But Ubuntu is not complete without some additional packages. One command make Ubuntu useful for everyday use. To get started, press Ctrl - Alt - T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When Terminal opens, type the command below and press Enter to install. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras Programs that will get installed after running the above command are: MP3, DVD Playback support Microsoft Fonts Java Runtime Flash Player and many codecs that are required to play MP3 and DVDs. (OR) install Ubuntu restricted extras Ubuntu by default, doesn't allow you to play MP3, DVD, Flash or most media formats for legal reasons. You must always install additional programs that will allow you to play those media To install Ubuntu restricted extras go to Ubuntu Software Center from the application launcher. Then search for "Ubuntu Restricted Extras" and Install . It will install commonly used pplications with restricted copyright (mp3,avi,mpeg,True Type,java,Flash,Codecs).

Programming :: Passing Data From Interrupt Handler Function To Tasklet Function?
May 18, 2010I am doing some Linux kernel programming for my research project. I need to record the timestamp (by using cpuid and rdtsc) when an interrupt handler (top half) is first invoked. Due to the time critical nature of the problem itself, I have to do the timestamping inside the interrupt handler itself (the first operation when the handler is called). However, I understand that tasks that are not so time critical should be deferred to a tasklet function (bottom half) for processing because other interrupts are disabled in a (top-half) interrupt handler. I am currently out of idea on how I can pass the timestamp information that I have obtained in the interrupt handler to the corresponding tasklet function.

Mar 30, 2011I'm currently using OpenSuse 11.1 web server. This is bad since 11.1 is no longer supported. the reason why I am using it is because Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() was no longer being used. (so I was told)

Jun 19, 2010If you set or export an environment variable in bash, you can unset it. If you set an alias in bash, you can unalias it. But there doesn't seem to be an unfunction.
Consider this (trivial) bash function, for example, set in a .bash_aliases file and read at shell initialization.
function foo () { echo "bar" ; }
How can I clear this function definition from my current shell? (Changing the initialization files or restarting the shell doesn't count.)
General :: Pass All Arguments To A Function?
Jul 6, 2010I've got a sticky little problem with a bash script. Please consider the following code:
Code:
#! /bin/bash
processArgs() {
echo "Count = $#"
while [[ $# -ne 0 ]]; do
echo $1
shift
done
}
processArgs $* If I call this script with Code: ./script first second third it'll print each of the argument on a new line - exactly what I would expect. However if I call it with
Code: ./script "Single Argument" "Second-Argument" it splits the first argument in two using the space as a delimitor. The problem appears to be the call to processArgs, where $* doesn't honour the quotes around the variables sent to the script.

user~ $ write 'this is a test' with "write" being the function, and 'this is a test' being echoed to the file. I hope I explained that well enough.
