I am working on a system that uses Red Hat Client 5.3. Files keep being created all over the system. They are all named nul and are zero length. We use a common login and thy are owned by this login account. I have grep'd the entire system looking for some code that would be writing these files but nothing has come up.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently had a Windows Vista laptop crash and burn because of some damage done to all the lovely files Windows cannot boot without. Since my computer cannot boot from USB normally I used PloP Bootmanager to get it to boot from a live Ubuntu image on a USB stick.Before I install Ubuntu, I want to recover some of my files sitting on the disk, and the partitions seem to mount in the GUI- I can see them, I can click mount or unmount and it responds. The trouble is that while I can see all of the folders on the Windows partition: Program Files, Documents and Settings, etc. I can't see any of the actual files. The disk itself is reported to have data on it- even Ubuntu recognizes it's almost full, but every folder has 0 files with the exception of /media/[A particular character string] which has three boot-related files. This is true whether I use bash as root or not. I've tried mounting to a different point and remounting via the terminal using ntfs-3g and editing the fstab file to recognize the parition with full permissions, but nothing seems to work.

What causes my computer to send an outbound request to the internet that would result in files being uploaded from my computer onto the internet? I'm afraid to put anything of importance (like reports that I've written for work) onto a computer with internet access because I don't want them to be uploaded to the internet. I wouldn't upload them on purpose obviously, but I'm afraid it would happen without my knowledge because I don't know what I'm doing.
I have an intermittent issue with with Samba. I can access my samba share with windows xp and vista using windows networking and even by mapping the share to a drive. The problem is that the files and folders disappear inadvertently and I can only access them again if I open the share again from the start with windows explorer. Selinux is disabled and the firewall ports for samba are open. The following software is installed:
samba 3.0.33-3.15.el5_4
samba-client 3.0.33-3.15.el5_4
samba-common 3.0.33-3.15.el5_4

Does anyone know how to increase the mousewheel scroll length? Take for example, Google Chrome, in a Windows operating system one tick in the mouse scroll wheel moves the page 10 lines, while in Linux one tick only moves the page 4-5 lines which can be quite annoying when scrolling through large webpages, does anyone know how to change the scroll length?

now it gets weird... a little while after I ran gthumb and it crashed... run it in a terminal and I see it complaining about the same files as google earth was before ... uh oh i thought and removed my fix and rebooted... well X wouldn't start after that and I thought maybe I have to rebuild /etc/ld.so.cache so I ran ldconfig and reboot and now everythign works great EXCEPT when I open the "Computer" or Trash Icon from the desktop or menu the background is white (normally black) until i click view->compact or view->icon and it goes back to black... this repeats everytime I open the window and all newly open windowsI created a new user to test to see it it was profile related and the new user has the same behaviour.Fedora 12 (upgraded since fc7)Edit: I see this in ~/.xsession-errors

View 4 Replies View RelatedI had tried many distros over the years but settled on Ubuntu for the last two or three, unfortunately the new version of Ubuntu (Natty) has prompted me to make the change again. To keep access to all my Ubuntu docs e.t.c. I installed Fedora 14 on a seperate partition and hey presto, there's the Ubuntu partition for me to read from, problem is that my laptop still just boots straight into Fedora, this is ok on my laptop but I wanted to make the switch on my desktop as well which has the wife's Windows partition on it, not being able to boot into that would cause eruptions! The problem is that Fedora hasn't installed a Grub menu.
On advice I typed this:-
[eric@Eric-Fedora ~]$ grub-install -v
and got:-

I am just trying Fedora from a USB flash drive on my Toshiba Portege t110 netbook. But it does not seem to detect any wireless networks (although I definitely have a few available -- when I boot up with Win7 it can detect them without issues). I don't know if something is wrong or there are some special steps I need to do to get wireless networks working in Fedora...
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am in the process of migrating my small workplace to a basic spin i've created of f14. Everything is suave but some file browser windows eg: file upload in gmail, hotmail etc, does not show my samba shortcuts i've created nor even the option to browse the network in the "places" section. It shows other locally created shortcuts but no samba ones. Just to test it, even creating an ftp:// shoftcut yeilds no dice. I had a quick search through the forums and I couldn't find anything. I have a feeling this has an easy solution that my inferior brain cannot comprehend! Loving F14 on my macbook pro and so are my employees in my office! Feels much less bloated than Ubuntu IMHO.

I have a Mobility Radeon HD 5650 video card. Should I just update my system regularly and hope it gets fixed, or is there some way to fix it by tweaking some settings or stuff? Maybe by installing the official ATI drivers? I'm not sure, but I've read somewhere that the official drivers don't work well with Gnome 3, is that true?
I don't want to install alacarte to do this. I've copied the .desktop files from /usr/share/applications to ~/.local/share/applications that I don't want appearing in the gnome 3 applications list (e.g., email settings for evolution), and added 'NoDisplay=true' to the end of each desktop file. Restarted gnome shell, even tried logging out and back in, but they still appear there. Previously, in gnome2, desktop files under the home dir superceded the global directory. Do I need to edit them directly as root to effect the changes, or could this be a selinux problem?

When I first installed Fedora on this laptop, I was unable to connect to a wireless network because I did not have the firmware installed, so being a good little enthusiastic new user of Fedora, I set out on a quest to locate the proper firmware. I had success on that front, however, in the process of installing it, the option to connect to any wireless network disappeared. It isn't that there is no wireless network in range, rather, the entire wireless option itself has vanished.

How to get the length of received UDP packet? Using wireshark I could see the correct length of datagram. How can I print this value in my simple udp server program? I am receiving binary data (Non printable ascii characters as a data) So I can not use strlen(buf) which throws incorrect length.

I would like to know how can I find array length in C .I have array of structure and I want to sent it to different functions and I want to have it's length (number of elements) each time I want to use it and I don't like to use any additional variable to pass the function for each of arrays that I pass to function.
How can I do that?

This should be ideally 4, but somehow it is showing as 5. However, when I am removing the space as RedHat instead of Red Hat, it is working perfectly.
