View 8 RepliesIn bash I need to use some equivalent of double quotes inside double quotes (or the other way around.)I need to run the following statement to get the output of foo and store it in a variable while passing foo the $file which probably contains spaces.
Code:
variable=$(foo "$file")
The problem is that foo might return an empty string and if it does I need to catch it

I am not sure If anybody has faced this issue, my keyboard is less responsive when pressing the double quote/single quote key, I have to press it twice for it to print the quote( and that too it prints some other data and not exactly a double-quotes). Initially I thought it was issue with my keyboard, but later I see that it is working fine in Windows XP. It looks some kind of setting issue. If you check the below two examples, example a) is the double quote printed in Ubuntu, it doesnt exactly looks like a double-quotes and b) is the one printed in Windows.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to synchronize the content of the directory my_dir/ from /home to /backup. This directory contains a file which name has a double quote in it, such as to"to. Here is my rsync command:
rsync -Cazh /home/my_dir/ /backup/my_dir/
And I get the following message:
rsync: mkstemp "/backup/my_dir/.to"to.d93PZr" failed: Invalid argument (22)
For info, rsync works well when the synchronized filenames contain single quote, parenthesis and space. Thus, why is it bugging with a double quote?

Can anyone offer a code snippet to recursively go through directories and replace any single or double quotes quotes found in a filename with another character (e.g. "_").If any of the filenames contain a single quote or double quote, then replace it with an underscore.

I'm really new here this is the first try to get some knowledge here.I have a littele question."echo {1,2}" does expands 1 and 2.so does "echo "`echo {1,2}`"".But when I do it with double quotes which is "echo "{1,2}"" it doesn't expand at all.why does this happen? I have read man for bash but could not get any clue.

In Thunderbird, when composing a reply to an email that you have quoted, is there a way to cut only part of the quoted material? A typical situation is that you have exchanged a series of emails with someone and your reply has all the old emails from your and the otherperson quoted in it. The quotes are nested inside each other. Often I'd like to chop off all the very old messages and just leave the last few. But the Thunderbird editor seems to make it an all-or-nothing proposition. I can cut the whole quote, but can't highlight a few nested parts and cut them.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy laptop's been locking up in Linux (Ubuntu, Backtrack, Puppy) periodically for a while now. When it locked up, it was always immune to the magic of SysRq, which I thought might indicate a hardware problem. It became so bad that I had to stop using the laptop.
Today, when I turned it on and tried to boot into Fedora 12, I got the following error (just once, it just locked up at various points during the splash screen after this once):

All the seemingly missing letters were really missing, not my typos.
As you can see, kernel version is 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.x86_64 and my laptop is a Sony Vaio TZ 250N (Core 2 Duo ULV 1.2GHZ). Note that with the other remaining kernels from the updates, nothing ever happened other than the locking up. The core temperatures hover pretty high, about 55-60C peak but this is still below the critical temp. Memtest came up clean when the problem first started happening.
I have a dual boot configuration now, Windows XP SP3 on the C drive (sda,1 it's a Dell Dimension 4700) and FC 6 on sdb. My goal is to install 10 and be able after installation to boot to either XP or 10. Some of the installation documentation baffles me, so I want clarification before I begin. 1st Question Looking at the screen shots of an installation on the fedora site, the Partition Selection Screen asks What drive would you like to boot this installation from?
Booting an installation? Maybe this meansFrom what drive are you installing? Once 10 is installed, what drive should be the boot drive? From what drive should I boot to install? Would somebody explain the intent of this Partition Screen question? BTW, I will be installing from CDs. 2nd Question: Upgrading Boot Loader I don't understand the Installation Guide, section 8.3 on upgrading vs skipping. I think I got into trouble on this very point going from FC3 to FC6. The boot loader on my Dell must be grub. So, I think I want to upgrade. Perhaps the confusion is that I'm replacing FC6, not upgrading, and upgrade here means only for grub, not for the install.
I know that this topic has been posted, responded to, and maybe even resolved, many times here, but I am stuck here with partially dead fileserver and need some pointers.
Problem: one disk drive that was part of a logical volume died. I have a replacement, but I can't get it into the LV and get the LV back up again.
pvcreate --uuid <uuid of dead drive> /dev/sdX1, where /dev/sdX1 is the newly created drive and its partition.
vgcfgrestore VolGroup
vgscan VolGroup
vgchange -ay VolGroup
e2fsck /dev/mapper/VolGroup-LogVol
but, e2fsck can't find a superblock. Apparently this drive is the first in the LV sequence, and it is not formatted as part of the LV.
So how to I get this new disk formatted into the LV without reformatting the entire LV and losing what data I still have?
(FWIW: this is on F11)
Just over a year ago I did a main board processor and memory upgrade on my system. I was running Fedora seven i686. If I recall correctly I booted with the install disk and chose "repair existing system" or something like that. Then I typed "rpm -e --nodeps" which removed the existing kernels. Again going from memory I typed "yum install kernel" A new kernel was installed I rebooted and the system ran great.
I have been having sound problems that i can't resolve with Fedora 12 i686. The sound card drivers are not always loaded at bootup. I have posted here several times about this problem and i may have messed things up a bit with various attempts at repairing. I am wondering if removing and reinstalling the kernel as I did at the time of the upgrade might help.
Are the commands I listed correct? It's been a long time. I found the instructions on this forum but can't find them again.

I just installed Cable internet in my apartment. Part of the deal was a free Router (a Belkin). Now I already had a router so now I have an extra, and I remembered something I wanted to try If I ever got an extra router.... I read somewhere, that you can replace the firmware of the Linksys WRT54G Router/Switch with a Linux-based firmware.
I want to try this, but I have some concerns. I'm worried about losing my WPA2 Encryption, and connection problems; I have two Linux laptops (Ubuntu, and Fedora 64 bit) which connect Wirelessly, a desktop w/ 64 Bit Fedora 10, and two Vista Desktops that connect via Ethernet. Will the multiple Operating Systems cause a problem?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI installed Fedora13 to dualboot w/ my windows 7. I quickly found out that I don't care for fedora. I was referred to Ubuntu, and put Ubuntu 10.04 on in VirtualBox. Lo and behold, I like Ubuntu a WHOLE lot more! So, I promptly went to Disk Manager (in win7) and deleted the Fedora partitions (told you i'm a noob). Of course that was a poor choice, and I was only able to get my computer to boot again by reinstalling f13. neat.

Can I just go ahead and install like usual, or is there anything else I should consider? Do you think Ubuntu will have a problem finding Win7?
