I am trying to to communicate from local host (Linux suse11.2) to remot server (solaria) X server through following steps:
1. telnet remotehostIP
2. setenv DISPLAY localhostip:0.0
after running an application such as xclock, the terminal dose not show anything, it looks like that the xclock application is running but its not displaying on my screen.I also tried xhost + remotehostIP then ssh -X loginremotehost but didn't solve the issue.
So when i boot up into grub why dose it show 2 versions of ubuntu something like this
Ubuntu, with linux 2.6.32-22- generic
Ubuntu, with linux 2.6.32-22- recovery
ubuntu, with linux 2.6.32-21- generic
ubuntu, with linux 2.6.32-21- recovery
My webcam doesn't show up in Kopete.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there was a way to show all current actions I am doing in a terminal window? For example if I left a terminal window open on one of my desktops, could I make it display everything I am doing so that when I receive some general error in a program, I could jump over and get some more details. I could also use it to see what commands are actually run when I do certain things.

Some of my short cut keys seem not ot be working. Ex Alt +F2 dose not open a pop up command line. Also would like to add some short cuts. Like Ctrl + Alt+ Backspace for reboot. I went to the short cut app and I can add a short cut key, name it, but can't seem to figure out how to assign it a function. Didn't seem intuitive to me. I'm using the UNE version on a asus eel 1000.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHaving logged in (to Fedora 11) with a terminal session, what command do I give to spawn the Gnome GUI desktop environment? Background: I'm running two Fedora boxes: one local, and one at the other end of my building (on fast LAN). I have full control/ownership of both boxes.
On the local box, I log-in to my vanilla F11 build, and I get the Gnome GUI automatically. Then I can open a terminal window, 'ssh -X -l myself remotebox; cinelerra' to run Cinelerra nicely in local desktop windows.
But sometimes I want to see my typical user desktop for the remote box. Now, IF the remote box is ALREADY running Gnome, I can VNC to it, etc. But, once having logged-out of the remote box, VNC closes and won't show me a GUI login page. (BTW: The remote box usually has no monitor, as well as being out of reach. So schlepping over to logon to it is a real pain.) So, here's the thing: I can login (to terminal session) and can bring up programs in local windows. But WHAT program do I launch in order to bring up Gnome??
I am using:
user@unknown:~$ sudo command -option > log
to save the results of "command" to the file "log", but I'd like to also get the result on the terminal, is this possible?
I am using ubuntu 10.04 lts.
i installed Ubuntu in italian language. Now I would like to see the error commands in english.For example if i write: $ mmmm

I would like that mmmmm: command was not found is showed.
I am new both here and in Linux. As the subject says, I would like to learn how to copy a directory (not a file) from terminal with progress bar showing. The copy is local, i.e., not to another computer. My distro is CentOS 5.5. I know that if I do it with nautilus I would see the progress, but I want to learn how to do it from the terminal. I know that PV command can show a progress bar, but from what I saw, it works well for files, but not for directories (recursive).
Is it possible to use PV for directories? If yes, could you please show me the syntax? I also saw that some people mentioned that rsync can also show a progress bar, I tried to do it, but it didn't work out - perhaps I got the syntax wrong. If rsync can really be used to copy directories with progress bar, show me the syntax? Any other ideas on how to do it? I would like ideas that do not involve using any script, i.e., just something that I can do using the regular commands.
I was doing some rather lengthy procedures using a terminal. Then I wrote script using Kate, and input it into that terminal, and then realized that I was logged in as a normal user in that terminal as opposed to a superuser, which is how I was logged in at the other terminal. I've never noticed this before because I've never done anything that takes this long.
Is there any way to link all terminal sessions in such a way that they all show me logged in as the same user? I don't even know if this is even important, but I don't want to risk losing any things that I had done.
When I open a terminal or konsole window, output (either STDOUT or STDERR) sometimes contains funny characters instead of something meaningful. Can someone explain how I might correct this situation?
ANALYSIS:
One very repeatable example involves using the manual page command
Code:
man set... man page output ...upstart - event-based init daemon
In my copy of the output, there are several problems in the very first screen. In the synopsis section, there is "{ value | ?value? ..." Replace the '?' with a lower-case-a-under-a-carat character (a-hat).
I suspect the garble character might be apostrophe in real life.
In other places, I see var?/able or how?/ever or trans?/action where the '?' is again a-hat and the '/' represents end of line or newline. I suspect the garble character might be a hyphen in real life.
All of this suggests that there is a conflict between the character stream written to STDOUT by the man command and the character-display settings (is that "code page" or similar?) of the specific terminal or konsole in use.
In specific, I use konsole v1.6.6 from KDE v3.5.10. In general, I'm running Ubuntu Hardy (v8.04.3 LTS).
What command is used to install applications in openSuSE terminal?
I mean something like 'sudo apt-get install ...' in Ubuntu or 'yum install ...' in Fedora.
How do I get a serial device to simply send me the data without mucking it about. I mean, if I write a c prog in DOS or a C prog on an embedded system, I get the bytes that ar sent down the line. With linux I seem to get extra characters in it (0x1A crops up alot) and its very frustrating. I am using a virtual machine with WinXP in it, merely to monitor a 38400 baud 1 stop bit 8 data bits serial line. The linux terminall /dev/ttyUSB0, throws data at me nicely but about 10% of it is gonk. I want some magic command
like stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 38400 -totallyraw
It is possible to not only have the progress of the shredding, but the time elapsed/remained/whatever as well? It would be great to be able to see the time elapsed/time remaining along with the percentage complete.

I bought this laptop several years ago. It had Vista. Just long enough for me to download SUSe, nuke and pave the HD and install Linux. Recently I upgraded from 1 GB to 4 GB of RAM, the maximum that is allowed given the motherboard (based on from what I am able to learn the Intel 945 chipset).
After upgrading to 4 GB, the machine (according to "My Computer") only sees 2.9 GB. I understand that under an earlier version of the BIOS that the machine would not recognize the RAM correctly. Additionally the "My Computer" page lists the display as "Intel 945GM". My problem is that I can find no Linux utility to flash the BIOS on this machine-- Toshiba only provides the BIOS included in an .exe file for either XP or Vista. I am hesitant to use the BIOS for the Intel 945 series motherboards from their site.

I am running memory test on SUSE, Memory test is just writing some patterns into a memory and reading it back in all CPU threads. After a while, when memory test is running in the background , I am trying to reset the system by echo b> /proc/sysrq-trigger command, Upon SUSE warm reset , I am seeing some UNCORRECTABLE MEMORY ERROR in model specific register (MSR : 0x421),
I am seeing this behavior on one of my server which has huge amount of memory.,Have you ever seen this UCECC error when SUSE generates warm reset when memory test in the background ?
