How can I create a multi bootable (with menu) cd/dvd that contains a number of live cds? Is there any "easy" way of doing this? Isolinux is the way to go I guess, but is there any tool available for this?

1) Location A

Would you like to print selected locations? Print I have no idea how to approach this problem and don't know whether Perl, Bash or shell script would be the most useful in this particular situation.
Im wondering how to create a menu in c like bash's select. I imagine there is already something out but I don't know what it would be. Im a c newb but been scripting for a long time now and trying to pick up a little c.this would be what I am looking to display:
Code:
1) option 1
2) option 2
3) option 3
Make a selection:obviously 1,2,3 would be the only valid selection and anything else would say invalid or something like that.
I am using GTK and C and on my application I have a Drag and drop feature.
Code: Select allicon_view = gtk_icon_view_new_with_model(create_and_fill_model(pALP));
g_object_unref(pALP->list_store); /* destroy model automatically with view */
gtk_icon_view_set_selection_mode(GTK_ICON_VIEW(icon_view), GTK_SELECTION_SINGLE);
gtk_icon_view_set_reorderable(GTK_ICON_VIEW(icon_view), TRUE);
gtk_icon_view_set_text_column(GTK_ICON_VIEW(icon_view), COL_DISPLAY_NAME);
[Code] ....
The drag and drop works fine but when I exit the application and enter again, the changes of the drops are not saved, meaning the new location is not saved. I understand that in order to save the location of the drops I need to create a menu file and write some xml, But how do I do this? it there another way?
Have downloaded Fedora 14 (64-bit Gnome) and installed KDE so I'd have the option of both desktops.
However, I'm unable to change from one desktop to another - from what I've read, there's meant to be a drop-down menu at the login page allowing you to select the desktop but I don't have one.
I am a beginner with Fedora (mostly used Ubuntu in the past few years, but figure it's time for a change) so I may be missing something obvious.
Not sure it's relevant in this case but specs: Intel Core 2 Duo, ATI 4850, 4gb ram, 320gb HD.

It loads OK but I cannot access/select the menus because the mouse pointer bears no relation to the mouse and the keyboard is no help either. Both are incredibly Slow!
I installed Jessie (8.1.0) and encountered a problem which is non-existent in Wheezy (7.8.0).
My shell is zsh and I use tmux both installed from packages, I use this zsh feature that when you type "ls /" and then hit "Tab" twice, it will present you a menu where you can select the directory you want navigating the menu with the arrow keys. It works fine out of tmux (in bare shell) but stopped working inside a tmux session. In bare shell you hit Tab twice and get into the menu, in tmux you hit Tab twice and it displays the table of suggestions but just keeps cycling suggestions (cycling directory names) and not sending me to the menu.
Here's some screenshots:
1) Working (no tmux): I hit tab twice and got in the menu.
2) Not working (in tmux): I hit tab twice and it just cycled directory names after "/"
t isn't in my config file, I tried without my .tmux.conf (with tmux set to default settings) and it still had no effect.
Yesterday I upgraded my Ubuntu 10.4 to new version 11. In during installation I don't really remember which option I choose for installing Ubuntu root direction, but after installation completed computer asked for restarting. I restarted computer, and after I restarted the computer, computer should bring up Menu to choose Windows Or Linux, but this time automatically after a few second screen turn black and than Ubuntu show up. But I don't want that because I want choose Windows, and now I don't have any Idea how should I bring the Menu back.

I have Debian Jessie 8.0 amd-64 installed. It is a dual boot system with Widnows 8.1 alongside. Both the systems work fine with a few glitches coming at times on jessie. But I assume it should get stabilised with time.
Problem is:
The usb keyboard is no longer detected until the GRUB stage crosses.
* This implies I am unable to press F2 to enter into BIOS
* I am unable to chose Windows 8.1 by using arrow key on the keyboard.
When the default system (first in the grub list), in this case Debian is selected after time runs out then the keyboard comes back to life and works properly thereafter.
So far I have tried the possible solution given at [URL] .... but it did not work.

I'm a Fedora user, and recently I switched from KDE to Gnome. Since then I'm experiencing a nerve-wracking problem when I use the right-click. Almost every time when I right-click the result is the automatic selection of the option in the context menu which is at the same level as the cursor. This happens more than 50% of the cases. Is that normal in Gnome or am I the only one that experiences this kind of problem?

How can I change the behavior of the selection buffer or a program that uses it ( I have xclip) to not send me text until the mouse button is released while clicking and dragging? This causes havok in the software I'm developing that tries to make use of the selection buffer. I need the full selection, not bits more bits more bits and then the full selection.EDIT: I cannot listen for mouse events such as button release outside of the GUI of my program.

I have several commands I would like to run with the software called Wipe. I have several locations I would want wiped and want to make an sh script to run Wipe and delete the locations. However I would like to have Terminal left open so I can see what it's wiping and once it's finished move on to the next location, is this possible and how would I do it?
The locations are:
/tmp
Firefox cache
flash cache
recently-used (file)
Not sure if there are any more locations and log files that could be entered, Ccleaner used to do all these things for me, the DIY part of Linux is quite fun though,

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'd like to put both the 32-bit and 64-bit OSS 11.3 onto a 2GB usb stick from their respective Live CD ISOs. I tried to make a partitions on the usb ( 1GB ) each, and then dd each ISO to separate partitions, make 1 of the partition bootable. But that doesn't work, even from the bootable partition. Any suggestions how to achieve that goal? Ideally there would be a main boot loader, which then provides option to boot each of the distro.

I've been searching for awhile and it looks like pendrivelinux.com had the easiest that just throws a grub boot loader on the usb with a menu.lst. Of course like most utilities there are no examples for any redhat on there and seeing how I'm not booting to an iso of an install i'm trying to boot to the install dvd i'm not having very much luck. Any thoughts of how my menu.lst entries should look. Or if you have an easier way let me know. I'd like to stick with ISO as anytime we update to a newer version i can just swap iso's. Here's an example they have in their for ubuntu. Obviously things like the .iso and vmlinuz location i've got but all that stuff after the vmlinux i'm clueless on.

2 "Tomato Sauce" on
3 Anchovies off

What is the minimum possible MySQL query to get a random data selection that includes each Index number only once and ordered ascending. The maximum index number is known. For example running the query should get the following data: 01, 06, 07, 02. Running the query again, you may get the same data or another possible combination like: 01, 05, 07, 04. Of course you could run a loop for 1 to max_index and process a random ordered data selection until the next index number is found. But I think this will result in too many database access. Also you could run max_index queries to get all IDs that correspond to the given index and randomly select one ID for each index.
I'm trying to use buildroot to cross compile some libraries for me. To do so I've set up build root to point to my working tool chain in the menuconfig.All seems fine however when I try to make (buildroot) I get the following error

Firstly im a linux newbie so try and bear with me, and make any advice clear anywho Ive been running ubuntu for a while on a single partition. Ive recently been looking into other distros and came across arch linux. As i installed arch it was recommended that you create partitions for various directories, such as boot, tmp etc.
Ive read the advantages of this and would now like to set ubuntu up in a similar fashion, alongside arch. Whats the 'best' way to do this. Can ubuntu use the partitions set up by arch? Will i have to reinstall ubuntu? eh i dont know if my question makes sense since its late here and its a topic i know little about. To put it simply: how do you create a multi-partitioned system running both ubuntu and arch
I ran into an inconsistency in handling timers (VTALRM) between AMD and intel platforms with threads. My understanding was that the timers are per process. I discovered I must call setitimer in the thread on intel though. AMD allows me to make the setitimer call once in the main thread as expected. The code below demonstrates the issue. I must add the code in the INTEL define for it to work properly on intel cpu's. Am I missing something dumb??

So I have built a program that takes a picture from two cameras every second and converts them both to jpeg format. The problem is that currently it takes ~2 seconds to convert a single raw photo to jpeg format, thus every second I add another raw photo (30 MB) to ram waiting to be converted to jpeg. So, theoretically the conversion to jpeg is running on a single core with hyperthreading, would I see better performance running the exact same process (a program pulling from a queue and converting to jpeg) running as a single process, or two concurrent processes? (both processes running on the same core, (so 1 thread on one clock cycle, the other on the other... (or one thread running on 1 core and the other on another core. What other steps would you take to improve the performance so there would no longer be a race condition?

I do a lot of scientific work - mainly in C/C++ but want to do some of the calcs in python, however I am finding it a problem with the lack of dimensionality. I frequency have a list of n particles and a multi-dim array for each particle and want to be able to access directly any component with ease. How best to go about this...
my prop = [n][x][y][z]
I might need a particular value and then to update that. I do not want to have to deal with lists etc etc as this feels rather cumbersome, adding, removing etc. There must be an easy way.
I have a multi-dimensional array like so:
Code:
Array (
[0] => Array (
[0] => Eleven
[1] => NumberEleven
[2] => 11 )
[1] => Array (
[0] => Twelve
[1] => NumberTwelve
[2] => 12 )
[2] => Array (
[0] => AnotherEleven
[1] => Eleven,Again
[2] => 11 )
I need to sort it by array[ $key ][ 2 ] so that it is sorted like so:
Code:
Array (
[0] => Array (
[0] => Eleven
[1] => NumberEleven
[2] => 11 )
[1] => Array (
[0] => AnotherEleven
[1] => Eleven,Again
[2] => 11 )
[2] => Array (
[0] => Twelve
[1] => NumberTwelve
[2] => 12 )
I've looked at the php array docs the closet thing I found was array_multisort which won't work for my above requirements, does anyone have any insight to how to sort this way?
