I was reading this tutorial & it shows swap at the beginning of drive. [URL]
Although I've already installed slackware & put the swap at the back of os, I would still like to know the benefits and purpose of putting at the beginning.
I can't my system because of this error: Code: linux-firmware: /lib/firmware/radeon/R700_rlc.bin exists in filesystem Note that in the beginning, it asks:
Code: :: Replace kernel26-firmware with core/linux-firmware? [Y/n] There are so many updates by now that the list fills in a few pages in the terminal! Also, I wonder why so many Arch updates get stuck or broken compared to almost any other distro? Is it poorly designed packages? Is it a design flaw in pacman/the package format?
after install slackware with gnome using gnome slack build it is work fine Except some thing :-
the volume it is not work and get this error ((The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured. You can remove the volume control from the panel by right-clicking the speaker icon on the panel and selecting "Remove From Panel" from the menu.
No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.)) and the System Monitor give me this error when i want check the state of memory and processor ((There was an error executing 'gnome-system-monitor': Failed to execute child process "gnome-system-monitor" (No such file or directory)) and the memory flash not work and give me this error ((Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied.))
pls delete this post if I should not do this as it is included in [URL]..How do I recover from the 99 error when I start my system? I can only get to my Slackware by booting into it from the Slackware DVD.I have re-run lilo but I keep getting the 99 error on start up.

I want to add something at the end of each line, from line 4 to line 8, in vim? How can i do that? I know adding at the beginning is like: 4,8: normal: i# What i want to add contains special characters ( here it is: <br/> ) , in case that matters.

I am new to Fedora 12 and was trying to setup a FTP server using VSFTP. I have it installed, but not sure where to go from there. I ultimately would like to have all of my PC( that are on the same subnet to be able to access the ftp server) and possible be able to access the server from outside of my local network.

I just tried installing Fedora 12 and at the beggining of the install i got this message about my disk which cannot be read until it is initialized, and if i initialize it all data on the disk will be lost. Disk was formated using GUID, and had one HFS+ partition on it. I accidentaly clicked "yes" on that error message, and after realising what I just did (some 2sec later) i pulled out my computer's power cord out.
Now my entire disk is erased, it has no partitions on it, and all data is lost...
How do i retrieve my data from the erased disk, and why did Fedora want to do this to my disk?
Movie and translation are 32 seconds out of sync. There are 2 ways to resolve:
1. edit all zillion lines of translation (daunting, I couldnt find tool)
2. add 32 seconds of nothing or whatever to the beginning of a video file
No2 may be quicker, but I do not know how.. I am not good with ffmpeg... also, if I want to join some 32 seconds, lets say of my XVid recording, I need to prepare it to be the same as film, so it is also complicated. how to add 32 sec? I tried openShot (couldnt find option). Cinellera is giving me strange errors, about audio codec and something I dont understand... I am confused in using both tools
I'm using ubuntu (natty), and when I use ls -l, the files are listed, but apparently the sorting algo ignores any special characters. For ages I've used underscores to mark special folders. And it seems to me, that they were always listed first. Now, the underscore is completely ignores. Let's assume that I have the files fileA, _fileB and fileC in a folder. Currently, ls -l orders them like so:
malbert@dredg:/tmp/1$ ls -l
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 malbert domain users 0 2011-08-03 15:27 fileA
-rw-r--r-- 1 malbert domain users 0 2011-08-03 15:27 _fileB

I've dug through the ls man page and could not find anything. Is there somewhere a system-wide collation option? Or something the like?
Programs like matlab/octave and I'm sure many other ones allow you to start typing a command, and then hit Up to recall the last command that starts with the typed characters. Common linux shell bash doesnot do this. Is there a different shell that does? I'm not asking how to find out the last command, I'm asking if there's a shell that's a little friendlier.

I look around for an easy guide on how to set up the server from the begining but I can't seem to find one that's good for a complete beginner like me.What I would like to do is to had the server as a place where I keep all my movies, music etc and be able to acces it from my home network and also from outside of it.

I want to write a small script to rename a bunch of files. Their name is of the form 'long number'|'name'|'extension', for example:
52354Football_part2.flv
2353452Nice_weather_4_ducks.flv
I would like to rename these to:
Football_part2.flv
Nice_weather_4_ducks.flv
If in my script I use something like
Code:
sed s/[0-9]//g
on each file, I will get
Football_part.flv, instead of Football_part2.flv,
and
Nice_weather__ducks.flv, instead of Nice_weather_4_ducks.flv.
how to instruct sed to only remove numbers that are in the beginning of the name in a simple way?

I have a lot a folders, each named by a number, and in each of these folders I have a specific file (stddev.dat) containing a single line (of numbers) I need to have a single file with each line being one of the stddev.dat (no matter if it is sorted or not), and also I need to add at the begining of each line the number of the folder it comes from.
I 'm no bash expert, and the "add at the begining of the line" is a bit of problem to me". Here is what I've come up with so far, just to put everything in one file, (and also if you know a better/more elegant way to do the same thing I've done, I'm listening)

I burned a copy of Ubuntu 9.10 and decided to use it to build up my little server. All was well initially. The CD booted, the language selection came up (I selected English), then there was the option to Try, Install, boot from first hard-drive, etc. I chose install and figured I'd nuke the original drive since everything that I need is off there. The little Ubuntu logo came up (it was shining/pulsating) for about 5 minutes. This went on for some time (the DVD-ROM spinning the entire time furiously) and then..The screen went black and there was a message saying that there was no input to the monitor (as some monitors are prone to do if you unplug/loosen the cable.) I rebooted, burned new CDs, etc. To no avail!
I have an HP (quite reliable in the past.)
