OpenSUSE Install :: 11.3 - How To Use Terminal To Add / Remove Programs
Mar 15, 2011I am coming from Kubuntu 10.10, which is a Debian based OS. I am used to going into the terminal and typing sudo apt-get install or sudo apt-get remove to install and remove programs. I know it is the hard way to do it, but I find it gave me more flexibility. So how do I do this in openSUSE 11.3? Or can I even install things through terminal? What is the command? I know there is YaST but I also want to learn how to use the terminal

Jun 22, 2010i have the following:
Quote:
echo %host%|sed "$s/.$//"
this would remove the Last character of the value assigned to the %host%. for example if my value is: abcd i get abc. but i am not able to assign the output. for example when i do
Quote:
set k=`echo %host%|sed "$s/.$//"`
after doing echo %k i get no output at the command prompt...!! whereas when i just type:

echo abcd|sed "$s/.$//"
at the command prompt i get abc. maybe some other ways to Remove the Last character...?

General :: Shortcut To Remove First Character Of Multiple Lines In Gedit
Jan 23, 2010I want to be able to remove the first character of a line when I highlight multiple lines in gedit. Example:
%Example is
%Commented Code
%Uncomment using this shortcut
I would then highlight/select these lines, and remove the first character to make it look like this:
Example is
Commented Code
Uncomment using this shortcut
I'm pretty sure there is an actual shortcut for this. If there is another text editor on Linux that it would work in, it would be nice to know how to do it in that editor as well.
Red Hat / Fedora :: Change File Names To Remove Invalid Character
Apr 1, 2009I am trying to copy a large number of files from a Linux server to a Windows file share. Unfortunately, all of the files and folders I have to copy have 10 numbers followed by 2 colons "::" in the name (example: 1234567890::WordDoc.doc) which of course is invalid in windows naming conventions. So now I'm trying to come up with a way to change the file and folder names on the fly to replace the colons with a dash "-" or space " ". I'm even willing delete the frist 12 characters in necessary. I have tried cp, mv, tr, and several -bash scripts but get no positive results.
View 4 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Set Default Character Encoding In Gnome-terminal?
Dec 30, 2010I try to change the default character encoding in gnome-terminal. I want to use UTF8, but every gnome-terminal i start uses "ANSIX3.4-1968".
In the menu, when i go in Terminal => Set character encoding i have a list with two items:
[x] Current Locale (ANSIX3.4-1968)
[ ] Unicode (UTF-8)
I don't know why the first item appears, i have another debian box and it has only the UTF-8 encoding available. I cannot remove the first item in "add or remove" sub menu !! Probably because it is related to "current locale"
Here is the output of "locale", if it can helps:
boulzor@antec:~$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"

Programming :: Script To Remove Lines In A File With More Than "x" Instances Of Any Character ?
Oct 4, 2010I'm looking for a script (bash, python, perl etc) or even a one liner (sed, awk etc) that can take a set of files and remove any line that has more than "x" instances of any character (case sensitive). I have been doing a lot of searching and can only come up with examples of how to remove blank lines, lines that start with a certain character or lines that contain a certain string. This will be used on a system running a Kubuntu derivative.
As a very poor and basic example, I would like to take files that contain lines like:
Code:
And end up with the files only containing the lines:
Code:
If I tell the script that 2 is the maximun number of times any character can appear in any line.
I know this must be possible, but for the life of me I cannot find even an example that will lead me in the right direction or better yet a piece of code I can use.
Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 - Remove Old Kernels From The Grub2 Boot Screen - Error "awk: 1: Unexpected Character 0xe2"
Nov 1, 2010I am running a dual boot system with windows 7 and Ubuntu. Both have run smoothly on my machine (Core 2 quad core on Gigabyte board) I recently upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04 via the update manager within 10.04. Following the upgrade the initial boot failed at the login screen ( i simply got the purple colored screen with a white box in the center of it). Instead of trying to figure out what went wrong, I simply re-installed 10.10 from live CD on top of the upgraded Ubuntu that was failing at the login screen. The live CD install seemed to fix everything for the most part ( I did notice some quickly flashing text right before the login screen. I think it was an error message but it was too fast to read)
My problem now is that I am trying to remove some of my old kernels from the Grub2 boot screen and I cant. I have read many posts on how to remove the old kernels, but my system is proving to be difficult. The old kernels definitely show during boot, but whenever I go into Synaptic they are not there. I have downloaded Ubuntu Tweak, and they do not show in it either. I have read the information at [URL] I went to http://www.fixthecode.com/remove-hug...sts-in-ubuntu/ and thought this would fix my problem but I keep getting an error: "awk: 1: unexpected character 0xe2" when i try to run: "dpkg -l | grep ^ii | grep 2.6.3x-xx | awk -F{print $2} I am running kernel 2.6.35-22 The kernels i want to remove are 2.6.32-23 and 2.6.32-24.
Ubuntu :: Frozen Panel - Messing Around With The Alternate Character Panel App And Made A Custom Character Set
Jun 12, 2011I was messing around with the alternate character panel app and made a custom character set. I then wanted to put it on a new panel and created a new panel. I moved the character set to that panel, and then started to mess around with the panel settings (auto hide, show hide buttons, and expand, to be specific.) So far so good, until I moved the panel from the right side of the screen to the top. I already had a panel here, and it seemed not to like hiding a panel when there was already one on the top.
When the new panel hid itself, all my panels stopped responding (any clicks on them did nothing) and my processor started going at 100%. I tried a reboot and the only thing that changed is that now I can't even see my panels. I'm guessing I need to change the settings back manually through the prompt, but I don't know how to do that. I am using 10.04 and have not upgraded gnome since upgrading to 10.04.

Jul 5, 2010the problem is how to have a "backslashed R", looking at here and picking up Combining Diacritical Marks you can see all the unicode combining diacritical marks like the one to have a "slashed R" that is U+0338, so if you type R and ctrl>shift>U 0338 >return you obtain R̸,but if you want a "backslashed R" and you type R and ctrl>shift>U 20e5 >return you obtain R⃥, and it isn't what you wantto do this you can use also gucharmap or kcharselect, I tried and them work for U+0338 and doesn't work for U+20e5, so, thinking that it was a gucharmap problem I mailed to gnomebugs here , I red this too here:

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Not Merely Does Character Reflection And Many Other Things Take Ages?

Jul 14, 2010I created a new panel in Gnome (Fedora 12) and it wasn't showing up right. So I just told it to make another (with the same results), and finally one more. So with the two that are there by default, that's 5 total panels... None of the newly created panels where displaying at all. But after creating the last one the system froze up. Now when I try to boot into fedora my system locks up as it's trying to load GNOME...
Is there any way for me to remove those panels through BASH? So I can just boot to a prompt and get them removed. After that I imagine GNOME will load correctly again...

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: How To Remove A Menu Item From Terminal
Jul 12, 2011I'm looking for a way from the terminal to remove certain menu items from the System | Administration for certain users. I'm working with a CyberCafe style application so user accounts come and go and I wanted to see if I can set it up that after an account is created that it will do some customisations.
I've found examples of adding menu items but nothing specific to removing via the terminal.
I think I may already know the answer to this. The Alacarte application simply manages the XML in the settings.menu to hide menu items and that if I want to do any customisations from the terminal I will need to play with this XML file to hide things.
I'd like the customisation per user rather than a blanket removal for all users
