mkvmerge -o <filename without extension>_TV.mkv -S <filename> && mkvextract tracks <filename> 3:<filename without extension>.*** && perl /home/brian/Desktop/ass2srt.pl <filename without extension>.*** && rm <filename without extension>.***
Doing these commands for multiple command line file inputs is the goal. So I can just type ./script.sh *.mkv in my terminal.This is what I have so far, but it doesn't work whatsoever.

How do I edit my .bash_profile so recursive directories are on my path without manually typing all the directories? For example, I want to have /home/woodenbox/SU, /home/woodenbox/SU/bin, /home/woodenbox/SU/bin/src, etc on my path without actually having to write the paths for all the subdirectories
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an elementary question: how can I determine the X11 addresses of my two displays? I am using an ATI card that splits the video signal into two VGA signals which correspond to two displays. I'd like to open one Firefox profile on one display and a second Firefox profile on the other display. So
Firefox --display=:0.0 -P Profile1
Firefox --display=?? -P Profile2
Currently :0.0 opens Firefox in the display my terminal is showing on. I figure there is a linux command to help me determine which X11 addresses are available to me but I haven't come across it yet.

I'd like to have one Firefox window open up on DVI-0 and a second Firefox window open up on DVI-1.
This would be very useful for me. It would mean that I could use 1 PC rather than 2 PCs for these two Firefox windows that I will eventually display on separate TVs.
How to set JAVA_HOME environment variables permanently such that it will not have to be set each time it has to be used.

#SCRIPT FOR DISPLAYING INODE, FILE PERMISSIONS ETC OF COMMAND ARGUMENTS
for data in $@
do
[code]....
The sript above is executed:-
./script file1 file2 file3 file4 file 5...
The error is that instead of showing the inode etc, of the ALL FILES IN COMMAND LINE ARGUMENTS, THE SET COMMAND OF LINUX OVER WRITES THE $@, so only "ls -l' of 1st commadn argument(file1) is displayed. The script should display it for every file in linux directory.
I've never done much scripting myself and I'm quite unused to the bash as well, but anyway, Here's my problem.
I've a script which is supposed to set some environment variables, using export. However, if I check those variables using echo, they appear not to be set (they are empty). If I set the same variables manually, everything is fine, of course, but I don't want to set them each time manually.
I installed Java on a server and anytime I have to start or stop a service that requires the $JAVA_HOME variable I have to manually set it with the export command such as: Code: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java-jdk1.6.0_21 How can I permanently set this variable?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am testing my crash recovery strategy for my linux system and I am having trouble with GRUB. I am basically restoring my backup (i.e. tar) unto a different hard drive, but I am having problems getting the machine to boot without me having to type the GRUB commands at the GRUB prompt that is presented when the machine boots up off the new hard drive. I have tried to restore the MBR in two ways (the 2nd one is the one that gets me to the GRUB prompt):
1. Get the MBR off the original drive and write it unto the new drive (all via dd), but that did not work at all: the machine hangs right away during boot up. It seems to hang right at the point where the BIOS tries to read the MBR.
Code:
On original drive:
# dd if=/dev/sda of=mbr+part.bin bs=512 count=1
On new drive (new drive is now in place of original drive):
# dd if=mbr+part.bin of=/dev/sda bs=1 count=446 conv=notrunc
2. By using the FEDORA rescue CD, I installed grub unto the new hard drive as follows:
Code:
# chroot /mnt/sysimage
# grub-install --root-directory=/boot hd0
reboot and remove FEDORA CD Using the 2nd option above, I get the GRUB> prompt during bootup. I can then boot into the system by issuing the commands that are in the menu.lst file, followed by the "boot" command. However, I would like for those commands to happen automatically, just like in the original configuration. It seems to me that GRUB is actually finding all its stage files because I doubt the GRUB program (the one displaying the prompt) fits entirely in the 446 bytes it has on the MBR. So, it must be loading its stage 2 (and stage 1.5??) files from my /boot partition. However, if GRUB is loading its stage files off the boot partition, why does it not load/read the menu.lst/grub.conf contained in the boot partition also?
Code:
# ls -l /boot

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm have been tasked with created a base Ubuntu image that can be used for cloning to multiple machines. As this is a network environment, each hostname will obviously need to be unique. Rather than manually changing the hostname each time a new, cloned machine is rolled out, I was wondering if there is a way to use a variable in the hostname (i.e., use a variable to truncate the the last 6 digits of the MAC address to the end of the static hostname--or any other unique variable for that matter--so it would look like hostname00E6D4).
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a list of names (testnames.txt) and I have a set of log files (testlogdata.log). I'm trying to search the column in my log file for each of the names in my testnames.txt file, and output the result to individual files, name1.txt, name2.txt, name3.txt, etc the names in the column of my log file can appear in different formats , ie the name "Tom Smith" can appear as "tom_smith", "tom-smith", "ACME/tom.smith", "ACME/thomas.smith". etc. To allow for the variations, I have my names in the testnames.txt as expressions, ie, for tom smith, I use the expression "to.*smith", etc.I'm running the following command:
for i in $(cat testnames.txt); do awk '{if ($9~/$i/) print $0}' testlogdata.log > $ioutput.log; done
I want the command to read a value for i, insert it into the if ($9~/inserted value for i/, and dump each line from testlogdata.log into a file named <value-for-i>output.log.
Turns out I don't have bc in my Ubuntu distro and I can't install it. how to subtract two variables (BASH variables) from awk and set the result as another variable, e.g: finalvalue=`awk '{print $first - $second}'`
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a certain number, let's say $n, of input files *.inp for a software i use.
For each of them I'll get an output file, *.out.
These output files are, all together, an input for a second software I use.
For this reasons, I collect all the output files in a folder, let's say pop_folder.
Before I run the second software I have to make sure that the first one runs successfully and all .out files joined the pop_folder.
I'm trying something like that:
It seems that my if condition is true despite the actual values of $n and $m.

I'm brand new to Linux and Ubunto 10.04.On the menu bar at the top of my desktop I seem to have attracted some kind of bug!The Log Out Symbol repeats itself across almost the entire menu bar and I cannot remove it. If I remove other buttons from the menu the space is immediately replaced by more Log Out Buttons.When I hover on the icon I get the message 'Log out of this session to log in as a different user' and when I right-cllick to click on 'Remove from Panel' or 'Move' nothing happens.It is not possible to right-click on another part of the menu bar to change the Menu Properties.
