I done searches for "clock" and found similar threads, but no real fix that is working for me. My clock resets when I boot into linux. It does not happen in windows or bios even on cold boots. The battery is replaced and good** the old battery was by all measures dead (0.6v), but still seemed to have enough power for the clock, since windows tested fine with it.
I have tryed setting it to local time, UTC.. etc... My timezone is GMT (london). "sudo /sbin/hwclock --systohc" Although I have windows, I do not use it except the few times to test this, so no conflict.
From what I understand, if I attempt to increment an unsigned int which is already at its max value, it will flip back to zero.Question: is this guaranteed to happen by the C language? That is, can I count on this happening on all platforms?(Of course, I recognize that the max value of the int will change from platform to platform...)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a table T having a field F which should be able to store variable-length sequences of "unsigned" characters (8bit values ranging from 0 to 255 (not including 0, including 255)).(MAX_LENGTH) is not working, as it seems to want sequences of 8bit values ranging from 0 to 127 (thus "signed" characters).Can anyone help me by pointing out if there is a type suited for my needs (or if such a type does not exist)?For those familiar to C programming and working with the MySQL client library, I should be able to (successfully) do something along the lines of:
Code:
unsigned char value[] = { 'H', 'E', 'L', 'L', 'O', -1, -128, 'W', 'O', 'R', 'L', 'D' };

I am a dummy in C programming. I have a problem with copying the array of 64 elements of unsigned char to array of 8 element of uint64_t. For example:
unsigned char p[64]
uint64_t Data[8];
memcpy (&Data, &p, 64);
I am not sure if it is right. Please help me. Thanks a lot.Moreover, do both p and Data have 64 bytes?
I'm writing a tridiagonal solver for sparse linear systems and I coded this decreasing loop:
PHP Code:
xx[NN - 1] = gamma[NN - 1]*BB[NN - 1];
ii = NN - 2;
/* Compute the x values: */
while (ii >= 0) {
xx[ii] = gamma[ii]*(BB[ii] + xx[ii + 1]);
ii = ii - 1;
}
now... if ii is declared as an unsigned integer, the code gives me a segmentation fault, but if I declare it as an int, it doesn't. Using DDD I noticed that, as an unsigned int variable, when I finally decrease it, it underflows and blows up to a huge value, ergo giving me an unaccesible direction for xx in the following iteration! I taugh me not to use unsigned int variables for dereasing loops! XD
I am accessing a firewire camera using the libdc1394 library and saving the image as a PPM file, using the code below:
[Code].....
My question is whether the above code is portable. I presume it is, since the result is a binary PPM file which should be capable of being read across multiple computers with different architectures and different operating systems. But at the same time, all that the above code is doing is just saving the binary representation of unsigned chars on the harddrive, and there does not seem to be any reason why the binary representations of the unsigned chars will be identical across multiple computers.
i define variable of type char (range -128 to 127). when i tried to print the value after assigning a -ve value to it it displaying a +ve value of that -ve value(256+value).

I'm using a very simple conky script to diplay the date and time on my desktop. I've noticed that he conky clock is a few seconds early compared to the time displayed in the right hand side of the top panel (Natty). I guess both displays are based on the same "internal" time, so I'm left wondering how this could happen, and how to sync back the clocks.
It seems that Conky is in sync with the system date, while the panel clock is 2 seconds late (on my system). Checked with while true; do date; sleep 0.1; done
Just curious as to if it is possible to have the clock in the center of the task bar centered clock in Ubuntu 11.04?

Given the following data structure: Quote:

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 tried googling around but i cant find anything related to this: everyone seems just interested in random numbers, so when it comes to random letters there is a lack of informations. However, i am trying to figure out a wait to get a random letters string that matches a simple rule: it must be a sequence of consonant+vowel. So for example, these are some 6 letters strings i would like to obtain: wolupa, tafoke, zewevu, cupimo.

However, the time showing in os using date command differs from bios time by roughly 4 hours. I am running ntp services which sync the time with another centos server on the network. It appears that some services are using virtual clock and some use physical clock. How do I get rid of virtual clock and only use physical clock?

I want to have it so that when it reaches a word with a sentence terminating punctuation mark it stops.
My attempt to do that was with:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just installed F12 the other day and I've run into my first problem (this is not a knock, in fact this is probably the best release of Fedora 12 ever for me). Installing Skype from their website. I realise that I'm attempting to install an 1586 binary in x86-64 so it's risky, but that's not the point (yet anyway). I can't even get it to install. I've looked around and can't find anything meaningful on this (other than posts which provided no help). When I try to install the rpm from [URL] with the GUI, I get the message "This action cannot be completed" with the following under details: "The name org.freedesktop.PackageKit was not provided by any .service files". I then tried to install it from a root terminal and got the message, "Package skype-2.1.0.47-fc10.i586.rpm is not signed". Is there a way to change this behavior? And is there a temporary workaround (say, for just this app)? All in all, I love this release, but I cannot recommend Fedora 12 to someone new to Linux without alleviating this issue for them (I'm set to do this tomorrow). This would hamper their efforts to learn how to do basic things, such as installing a random program like Skype.
