I have recently converted to Linux after taking a system architecture course which exposed me to OpenSuse. I have my main desktop up and running with OpenSuse and now I'm determined to dust off my old pc's at home and get them up and running again. I might need some guidance or tips along the way so thats why I'm here.I have four old pc's running on Windows Home XP with 512mb or less of ram. I am planning on upgrading them to at least 1 or 2gb of ram to get as much as I can out of OpenSuse. Should I install the ram before I before or after switching them all to OpenSuse? What network adapter do you guys recommend?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been searching the site to find out what the program path is for Ubuntu programs, but can't find what I'm looking for. My search terms were :
- "program path" Ubuntu
- change "program path"
- "open with" "program path"
I came across a few articles but nothing really seemed to help me. Here's the problem; anytime I try to open a PDF file from my browser, I get either the "Open With..." option or the "Save to..." option.
If I select "Open With..." the default has been changed to Virus Scanner (ClamTK) which I recently installed. Admittedly, I was fooling around with virus scanners to see how they work in Ubuntu. But now my Document Viewer won't open up the PDF files. If I select "Save to..." and save the PDF file(s) to my desktop, and double-click the PDF file from my desktop, then Document Viewer will open up the file. What is the program path for me to change the default program back to Document Viewer???

I'm looking to allow sudo for openvpn for a user.
I cannot find the openvpn program path though, i try a 'which openvpn' command and it returns nothing! :S
What is the path? or how to allow a normal user account to run openvpn with sudo?
Solution found:
Working directories for openvpn on debian 8 are:
/etc/openvpn
/usr/sbin/openvpn
To add sudo capability to a guest account, run this with your admin account:
Code: Select allsudo visudo
then add the line, with your guest username substituted:
Code: Select allusername ALL=/etc/openvpn, /usr/sbin/openvpn
tada! guest account now runs only openvpn.

Can someone give a step by step instruction to install jdk and also tell me how to set the path so i can easily execute the programs.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAtleast I think it's a terminal program. I remember several years ago while using Redhat 7 when working in the terminal it would automatically complete the pathnames and filenames for you. If I was typing in the terminal "cd downloads" but I only typed "cd do" it would automatically complete my command with "cd documents" but if I continued to type "cd dow" it would know that I don't mean the documents folder and it would know the only other folder path with a dow in it is downloads. I'm not sure if my description is 100% accurate but I think you get the idea. Ubuntu doesn't seem to have this by default and I'm curious if I can get it. Is it a terminal program/client I need to use, or just an option? I don't know what it's called so I've had a hard time googling for it!

What is need is to kill application, when pc is going into suspend to ram and run that application again on wake. It's a graphical application.
I use this command:
Code:
find ./ -atime +360
to figure out the files that haven't been accessed since 360 days. The command above will return results like this:
Code:
/uploads/2010/02/some-file-name.ext
/uploads/2009/08/another-file-name.ext
... etc
I'm taking here about tins of directories, thousands of files. I'm looking to find a command that makes me able to move the results above to another path, and to create that path once it doesn't exist like below:
Code:
mv /uploads/2010/02/some-file-name.ext /old-files/uploads/2010/02/some-file-name.ext
But I want the executed command to create this path
Code:
/old-files/uploads/2010/02/
If it doesn't exist.
Java applet not loading image with relative path(e.g. images/1.jpg) but loads image with absolute path(i.e. from /root/user/images/1.jpg) . This is a problem when i want to host the applet on web server
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a program that takes a relative path as input appends it to a some path string to get the actual path.
Now all I can input is the relative path. So if I want to go one level above my input will be ../mypath.
If I know the depth of the path used internally, I can use .. as many times to go to the root directory and then give the absolute path. But suppose I do not know the depth of the directory, can I construct a relative path string such that it considers it as a relative path. One way could be to have enough .. in the path string so that I can force an absolute path for some maximum depth of path.
Is there some path string syntax that I am not aware of but can achieve this?
Experimenting with shell variables, accidentally deleted the path variable how could I return to the original path value. What kinds of problems will I have if I don't have a path variable.

I upgraded my OpenSUSE 11.2 KDE 4.3.5.x to KDE 4.4.2 and am having a couple of issues. Not sure if I am just a bit stupid or impatient figuring them out or what... In Amarok, I used to be able to input or edit the path name under Files (i.e. Browse Local Harddrive for Content). This allowed me to quickly copy and paste a location from Dolphin / Konqueror etc. into and from Amarok for quick access across multiple applications (Especially when sorting out things). Somehow this is either missing (Not possible anymore) or I am to impatient or stupid figuring this out.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI use tcsh. When I execute by hand a command that is in my path...located in say "~/bin/myscript"....the command executes without an issue. I don't need to use the absolute path "~/bin/myscript", I can simply type the command "myscript" since the path "~/bin" is in my .tcshrc file. When I execute the same command from a script, I get a "command not found" error. A similar issue is when I use the absolute command, but a library necessary the programs' execution is defined within my .tcshrc file. I'll get a library not found error.
