View 4 RepliesI want to send Epson ESC sequences to control the printer from terminal.
I figured out if I send
Quote:
echo $FF>/dev/lp0
that is equal to sending 'FF' control sequence. But I have problem when I need to send sequences like,
1. ESC 0 . I sent
Quote:
echo $ESC $0>/dev/lp0
,
Quote:
echo $"ESC 0">/dev/lp0
. They do not work as expected.
2. ESC HT 5 4 (To control Horizontal Tabbing)
How can it be done in bash?
I have to write a code that converts a sequence of 1's and 0's(block) into their equivalent hexa number and copying to another array(byte). but this sequence is not always of length 8 and you are required to send strlen(sequence)%8 bits back into the string. So i've written down this code and it works well with the sample input but fails in the real program.
Code:
int Convert_encode( char * block,unsigned char * byte)
{
int len,iter,i,j,k,sum;
char * temp=(char *)malloc(4*sizeof(char));
len=strlen(block)/8;

I run a script which generated about 10k files in a directory. I just discovered that there is a bug in the script which causes some filenames to have a carriage return (presumably a '' character).
I want to run a sed command to remove the carriage return from the filenames.
Anyone knows which params to pass to sed to clean up the filenames in the manner described?
I am running on Linux (Ubuntu)
The character causing the filename to 'break up' accross multiple lines appear to be a CR (carriage return) instead of ' '. The filename is being diaplayed in thetitle of a text editor with %0D in the positions of where the file name breaks up. So I need to remove the CR chars from my filenames.

I have rename on my server which I used to remove underscores from file names, but I dont know how I would use it to rename everything up to the first period. Bonus points for renaming stuff to the name of the parent folder!
I'm trying to rename a lot of files getting rid of the space on the names. For that purpose I wrote this very simple bash script, but for some reason is not working.
Code:
for i in "$(ls)"
do
j=$(echo "$i" | sed 's/ /_/g')
mv "$i" "$j"
done But what I get in return for each line is just one long file name with all the file names concatenated. I've tried with echo -e "$i" as well with no results. This has to be something really simple that I'm missing but I just can't see it.
I have a bunch of files that I need to rename, ordinarily this is pretty easy task. The problem here is that the file names have Chinese / Japanese characters. ie [$$$$$$$$].SOMETHING BLAH BLAH.ext Where all the "$$$$" are insert Chinese characters. The problem is that sed or perl doesn't seem to handle the Chinese characters correctly so using a regular expression like this 's/^[*.]//' which would normally work doesn't. From what I have read so far I believe these characters are double encoded UTF-8 (not 100% sure) which could be the problem. So far I've tried numerous different regex's as well as playing around with convmv to see if I could convert the filenames to just single encoded characters but I've had no luck.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat I am attempting to do is rename some television shows into the format that my PVR will understand for the naming convention. I have a script that cleans them up about 95%, now I just cant figure out the last little detail..
For example: NCIS_01.mkv
I think it can be done in sed, but I just figure out how. I need it to be renamed to: NCIS_s01e01.mkv
How can I make sed (or something else) match the last "_" and any numbers after it until the period and then insert text between them reliably?
Depending on the show, it can be something like: This_show_name_243.avi so I need it to be more flexible than I can figure out how to do..
I have this cool bash script that I worked hard on. But it broke down when it can across files that had non-English characters. Another small problem was getting it to descend into a directory. If it renamed a directory it would not descend into that dir to rename the other files. I would have to run the script twice on the same directory.
Here is the script:
Code:
find -type d -o -regextype egrep -iregex '(.*.ogg|.*.mp3|.*.wav)' | while read s
do
rename -v 'y/A-Z/a-z/' "$s"
done
find -type d -o -regextype egrep -iregex '(.*.ogg|.*.mp3|.*.wav)' | while read n
do
rename -v 's/ /_/g' "$n"
done
A French name like this:
Code:
Chateau De Sable (imagine accents above the letter a)
became this:
Code:
ch303242tea_de_sable
This is not what I wanted.
Why would the script not descend into a directory after it was renamed?
I have a load of photos from my old Nokia phone that I need to rename. A few examples of the current format is "ddmmyyyy.jpg", "ddmmyyyy(001).jpg", "ddmmyyyy(002).jpg" etc, where ddmmyyyy is the date.I need to rename hundreds of files in a single directory so that the first 8 digits are rearranged into "yyyymmdd.jpg", "yyyymmdd(001).jpg" format etc.Even better if the output format could be "yyyy-mm-dd_(001).jpg"
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am building a minimal 6.2.2 linux kernel with slackware on an AMD athlon +1700 single core box.
In the lilo.conf file, there was originally only one entry, which was created by the slackware cd install.
Now, my questions are:
1.Does a person edit the lilo.conf files before or after they rerun lilo?
2. If that person edits the lilo.conf files before they rerun lilo, does the sequence of the entries in the lilo.conf files affect the manner in which lilo treats the new and old kernels? (e.g. If I put the new minimal kernel build as the first entry, will I get an error message saying that the kernel sizes do not match or that the iso image is too large, or some other strange error message?)
3. Are there any other lilo related problems, options, or tweaks that you think are pretty cool and that I might like to hear about?
4. Would I be better off using GRUB?(I don't like GRUB, but I'm throwing this one in here just for completeness.)
I have downloaded both versions of Fedora 11 (Gnome and KDE) to iso files on my hard disk - in Windows XP. I then tried the verification procedure advised in [URL]... section 3.1. I have successfully installed and run hashcalc, with the SHA1 option, and got the following results:
- for the Gnome version : 795b52b3c7b16eba6f2cae055ec894d8648d8095
- for the KDE version : 38ef6c97e29803add28d40add05aa025b6f4c92b.
But I can't find any SHA1SUM files to give me the correct character sequences against which to compare the said results.
After i try to find logfiles follow date/month/year. i want copy this files to another directory with name's directory is time you find(date/month/year).

View 9 Replies View RelatedAs i used Terminal, i noticed something odd: the text is overlapping itself. In other words space between letters is uneven and can be negative.
See screenshot if you wish.
What could cause that? Is it a Maverick bug? Or has it something local?
On my RHEL6 Gnome Terminal, the text is overlapping. I tried with the "Use the system fixed width font" option or changing other fonts, but they did not change. Also, I tried creating .fonts.conf file that's posted as a solution for other but this did not help.
Thing is that the first time when I installed RHEL6, it looked ok, but 2nd installation on VirtualBox client and thereafter, this happens. I'm using the same installation source and options as the 1st time. Also, "Open Terminal" option is missing from pop-up window after 2nd installation (Terminal is still available from App->System Tools; just not from popup window).
I cannot have any more than 47 characters on each line of my virtual terminal without everything on that line disappearing. The text is apparently still there, since commands that need more than 47 characters still work but the text stays hidden. After the text has been overlapped I can type as many characters as I like and it no longer overlaps, but my PS1 on that line and all previously overlapped text stays hidden.I'm almost certain that the problem is in my bash configuration since it happens in a terminal emulator as well as the virtual terminal.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI can't seem to run Evolution. Whenever I try to open it, I get a box asking for the password for my email account as well as a box asking whether I want Evolution to be the default mail client. The answer in either box is not acknowledged, and the only was I can figure out to close it is to "killall evolution". I'm having a hard time searching for bug reports--nothing seems to come up with the terms that I have used.
How can I reset this? I kind of want to try out the Contacts manager feature and the MS Exchange compatibility, but I use Thunderbird for my main email and I don't want Evolution to be the default. Incidentally I'm actually using Fedora 13 but I imagine most of the commands I might need are the same.

I guess entire disk is taken as extended partition and primary partition(/dev/sda4) lying within this. So this is may be similar to thread [URL]. Correct me if I am wrong and also advice me on how to proceed further.
I've attached an example.As you can see,fgl_glxgears window is under the chrome window(look at the title bars), but you can still see the gears.The same thing happens with video in VLC.I'm using 11.04. This happens with or without compiz. I'm using the latest ati video drivers from AMD's site (11.5).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm faced with standing up an open source NMS and am deep into Zenoss Core. I'm evaluating distributed collectors that will be deployed behind a customer NAT/Firewall. Cool, this works. What if the customer IP space overlaps with an existing customer IP space? From a management perspective Zenoss distinguishes devices by IP. So it will refuse to add duplicate addresses. To get multi-realm IP functionality, It would require purchasing a subscription to enterprise license.
So my pickle, do I spend weeks or months hacking the Zenoss sub structure to duplicate that? Do I somehow remap the IPs through site to site VPN at the router? Or do I look for a different open source solution?Does anyone know of an open source NMS solution that addresses overlapping IP space and can do distributed collectors? I have posted a question on Zabbix forums asking if the distributed monitoring they have will do this. But I hope that someone else has tackled this and succeeded.

I think the installation caused the corruption of the partition table. I removed the last 3 logical partitions and gparted correctly reported the 2 remaining distros and the swap. The problem hopefully will be solved when I reinstall those distros. I have a 160 gig HD with 3 Linux,1 swap,and a Windows partition. I attempted to install PCLINUXOS unsuccessfully. When I rebooted I had the same grub. I checked gparted and it indicated all 160 gigs as unallocated. fdisk shows the partitions. and indicates one partition as empty where I attempted to install PCLOS.
No problem in accessing any of my distros, but currently I can't make any changes to my HD. I've tried parted magic and there was no solution there. I have been unable to download the Ubuntu Rescue remix. Is there a way to restore? I haven't used fdisk or cfdisk for that purpose. I am beginning to think I would need to delete all of the partitions in the extended.

View 3 Replies View RelatedXubuntu 9.04 installation CD not detecting any of the current partitions. This all started when I reinstalled windows XP a few days ago.After, the computer wouldn't boot into GRUB and would boot directly into windows.Other threads have dealt with a similar issue, that of overlapping partitions causing libparted/parted/gparted to detect the whole drive as unallocated space. The problem in these threads seemed to be a corrupted partition table, in which the partitions overlapped with each other. So of course I checked the output of fdisk -l for overlapping partitions, but I don't see any obvious overlapping partitions. I've noticed that the partition that used to be linux swap isn't showing up in the partition table at all. I might just be missing something simple here and would like another set of eyes to help me figure this one out. Does the problem have anything to do with the partition table being out of order (ie. not in order of what regions they cover on the drive)? From the liveCD I've run
