View 10 Replies View RelatedWhat i am trying is to check the file duplication in a folder and remove a file if it is a duplicate of another file ie the contents are duplicate; but names may be same.
Basically i am using md5sum to calculate the md5sum values of each file and redirecting to a file. And i am thinking of comparing the md5sum values.But i am finding it hard to decide how to complete the code after redirecting the output of calculation of md5sum to a file.
Some programs will take options like this:$ someprogram -orange apple
And other programs will use something like this:
$ otherprogram --orange apple
Is there a "rule" or convention for this in Linux/Unix/OSX?
I noticed something a little odd I'm hoping someone can enlighten me on. I noticed in a couple of cases that a package has the proper version, but differs in two regards.
1. The package ends up with a .el4 on the end of the version for Red Hat 4.
2. The actual MD5Sum of the files the package provides differ.
An example below:
Code:
[root@RH4ES32-MCE bin]# for i in `rpm -ql GConf2`;do md5sum $i;done;
md5sum: /etc/gconf/2: Is a directory
9f90335546f7c57ae6fb552cc2b919c5 /etc/gconf/2/path
md5sum: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults: Is a directory
[code].....
So my package changed slightly to now show .el4 versus just 2-2.8.1-1 I've indicated in the first output above that the first couple of lines differ. I stopped my comparison at that point as they truly are different.
I have some checksums.md5 verification files from an ntfs external drive, but using windows notation: instead of /, spaces between file names (not escaped), reserved shell characters (like (, &, ', to name a few). The checksums.md5 has a bunch of checksums and filenames:
[code]...
I want to use this checksums.md5 to verify the files that I've copied to my machine: but I'm on a Linux, so I need to convert the names inside checksums.md5 from Windows to Linux to use the md5sum utility from the shell. The first line in my example would become: f12f75c1f2d1a658dc32ca6ef9ef3ffc My Windows & Files (2010)/[bak]/testing.wmv Is there some application for this (converting a file listing, from windows cmd notation, to linux shell notation) or will I need to create a bash script using sed that just "replaces" what is "wrong" with the filenames
I've found these commands in [URL]:
Quote:
find -type f -print0 | sudo xargs -0 md5sum | grep -v isolinux/boot.cat | sudo tee md5sum.txt
But I don't understand these commands, even after reading their manuals.
I want to move all files and directories that are 1 month old out to back up into a separate folder. There will be a lot of files and I want to make sure it copies properly. The problem I'm having is integrating a MD5SUM into it to check integrity. MD5SUM is not recursive, so I figured it would work in a loop when it copies each individual file, I'll do a md5sum on each file and delete that md5 once its verified it copied ok.
[Code]...
I also need some sort of error handling to output all md5's that didnt pass the hash check.
ok, I pressed alt-ctrl-f1 and it displayed my screen with a gui. I then pressed alt-ctrl-f2 and it displayed a textual desktop. I pressed alt-ctrl-f3 and it displayed the same thing. When I pressed alt-ctrl-f1 to return to my gui, it would not let me return to a gui. I was stuck in a cmd line textual desktop.
How, without restarting, do i return to a gui once I press alt-ctrl-f2??
I did install awn and setup. Nice look I got, but, some mess I must did, and the top/bottom panel disappeared, and the dash did too. After some search on the web, got back top panel, although it is not automatic, I must to start it.

In Fedora 14 I used to have some links to often used folders in the top panel, and now I would like to have some shortcuts in the Gnome 3 dash.

I have this crazy idea to map an em dash to AltGr+Dash, replacing the yen symbol currently produced by that key combination. Is there a way to do that?
Unless, of course, there is another way to produce an em dash with the US International keyboard? Not including OpenOffice's autocorrect feature.
Is there a command to use to check md5 sum of a downloaded iso the md5 txt is in the iso
View 3 Replies View Relatedwhen I try to enter an escape sequence in the interactive mode of dash, it keeps on spewing out the <ESC> character as ^[ displayed in plain text instead of catching it as a control character. I vaguely remember encountering this on some UNIX shell but for the life of me I can't find anything on it. So how do I properly enter escape sequences in dash's interactive mode? (it supposedly supports vi line edit mode but I can't access it at all because of the ESC situation)It's not a make-or-break thing.

i get the hashed string with 3 white spaces and a dash, how do i remove the 3 whitespaces and dash? I need it to match with md5 over at mysql server but it fails, i'm guessing the problem is with the whitespaces and the dash
I have Ubuntu 11.04, upgraded from 10.10, and I'm logging into the default Ubuntu, Unity. In Dash, if I search for "firefox", I get three results:
Firefox Web Browser
Mozilla Firefox
Mozilla Firefox (Safe Mode)
Clicking Firefox Web Browser brings up Firefox just fine. But both Mozilla Firefoxes do nothing. I have a feeling that they're left over from Wine, but I'm not sure. The Uninstall Wine Software program doesn't show Firefox, but I may have uninstalled it through there a long time ago.
I want to remove these shortcuts from Dash. I tried checking the Main Menu program, but Mozilla Firefox isn't in there (though Firefox Web Browser is). I looked in /usr/share/menu/, and found a file called "firefox". That file specifies a title of "Firefox Browser", so I'm not sure if it even applies. The command it gives, "/usr/bin/firefox", is good, anyway. I don't see any other firefox related file there.
So, does anyone know how I remove those shortcuts from Dash?
I've been using a script to compare the MD5sum of a CD and the ISO used to burn the CD. This script works great in Fedora 8 but in Fedora 12 it returns a different check sum for the CD and ISO.
Code: #Compares the checksums of an iso9660 image and a burned disk.
#This script is released into the public domain by it's author.

I am trying to get a checksum for a file in a subscripted variable in a bash script. md5sum outputs a checksum and the name of the input file. For example:
Code:
eval CSUM$K=$"(md5sum file)"
This might return something like this:
Code:
3cff5d5c0113959d0be62be34b97e05c file
I want to assign just the checksum to the variable in my shell script and omit the file name that follows. Is there something besides md5sum that will generate a checksum? Or if not, then I was thinking I might be able to extract the checksum without the file name using sed.
I'm getting an md5sum error on two files in the latest slackware64-current:
This problem doesn't appear to be due to my download.
The 32-bit slackware-current has no md5sum errors.
I have read about it, looked at screen shots of it but I don't think Unity runs on a virtual machine yet so I have not laid hands on it. Still it looks to me like a remake of the old Windows 3.x "program groups" concept (at least it was called something like that back before the fall of the Roman empire). Looks like a waste of space to me to have all the program and file icons in a box instead of tucked out of the way along a panel.
