When running certain programs (i.e. Nedit or Gourmet Recipe Manager) asking to print will give the following message: Enter print command:
Am using 13.1 32 bit with cups. Everything works properly and prints properly I just don't know what to enter for a 'print command'.
Have tried entering lpr and cups.
I am pasting sudo commands without problems as a user (ales in my case) and then immediately the ask the user password.
The keyboard seems to be dead, no keys work, not allowing me to enter the password.
Not sure when CUPS started acting up. I have the latest 13.1 current software installed.The first page to print is always OK, but all succeeding pages are overwritten. The second page shows the first page on top of it, and the third shows the preceding pages on top of it - and so on. Has anyone else seen this problem?I guess the printer buffer is not getting flushed correctly. If my configurations were trashed in some way, I don't know where to look for a fix.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI've been fiddling about with vortexbox (the one before 1.4 I think), for a while. This is a music ripping and server rpm setup using Fedora 11 as the base.
As it was on a test machine, decided to try changing the logical volume sizes of LogVol00 and LogVol02 to fit a few more cd's on 02 before getting a new pc (just to see how it works).
Logged on and opened up the graphic version of lvm (using gnome). Then selected the LogVol02 logical volume, select edit, changed name to LogVol02-Storage, saved and logged out. Rebooted vortexbox since then its been unable to start properly (is this a kernel panic?).
Read up a lot on lvm on the net, have access to Fedora 11 disk 1, so logged on. Eventually managed (I thought to) to change LogVol02-Storage to LogVol02 using lvrename.
However, still refuses to boot completely.
The message it gives is as follows (sort of): Welcome to Fedora Press '1' to enter interactive startup
Setting up Logical Volume Management: 3 logical volume(s) in volume group 'VolGroup00' now active

Loving vortexbox appart from this. Will it be easier just to reinstall everything? If so, is there a way of listing all the changes I've done so I can reproduce (I'm thinking of just looking at all the commands I ran on the CLI).
Otherwise, is there a way of listing all of the commands I ran in terminal and piping them into a file so I can see what I need to do to rebuild after reinstalling?
I need some direction on a small scripting question. I've been doing some development and storing the code on a network drive with multiple user access. My development is getting complex enough that it is time to set up a svn repo for it. I would like to set up a little script (if possible) that prints a message/reminder to whomever is accessing the code directory stating that the code is ultimately stored in svn and any changes need to be checked in, etc. Is there a way to have linux print a message to the screen based on a 'cd /specific_dir/' command? So far google is mum on the topic. Using Debian and bash shell.

I have a problem when using awk:

I'm writing a script using ksh that diffs two dirs that contain about 30 files, and writing the results on a logfile. When files differ, it writes the difference with no problem, but I also need the script to write a message if no differences are found.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm currently writing a C++ application to manage some screen functions in Debian(server).
However this issue have bothered me for 2 days now...
What I want to do is to send a command to an attached screen which is running.
Used the following command: Code: screen -S screenwindow So I send a command with the -X parameter, which works just fine... Code: screen -S screenwindow -X stuff yes The command I want to send is "yes" and it does appear in my screen window when I attach it.
But the problem is that I need it to submit it... well I need to press "enter" and I've been looking everywhere on how to do that.
Because right now it hangs on a line like this: Code: Something here, do you want bla bla: yes Obviously I could just press enter myself, but the problem is that it's running as a deamon and but it is supposed to do this all by itself .
So are there any way I can submit it?
I used btrfs, but my Slackware root is really a subvolume named system and not the root of btrfs. I do a similar setup of having the OS's root in it's own filesystem on FreeBSD+ZFS.Anyways, my problem lies in mkinitrd. There's no way to enter extra boot options, as I require subvol=system to be added to mount -o ro -t $ROOTFS $ROOTDEV /mnt.in the init script of /boot/initrd.gz. I don't reboot often and it's easy to manually remount /mnt with the correct options, however, is there another way of passing boot options to mkinitrd?
I see Patrick is the author of mkinitrd, so maybe this kind of option could, or maybe should, be added? I'm sure most people wouldn't make a subvolume for the OS's root, but I've been use to it with ZFS and prefer it for some reason.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI downloaded Debian Stable last night, and everything appear to go smoothly. Today, I booted up the new OS to try it out for the first time. As I was exploring a few of the features, I decided to pull up a web browser. No internet connection.
No big deal, I thought, as I searched around for a way to connect wirelessly. I couldn't find a way to do so. I consulted one of my more Linux savvy friends, who advised me to pull up the terminal and enter a command to start the network-manager. According to the terminal, no such file currently exists on my system.
This is a bit of a conundrum for me, since I am on my university campus with no ethernet cord to attempt a direct connection. Is there any way to get the network-manager onto my computer? Also, did I mess up somewhere in the installation, or did someone not package the file with CD1 for some unknown reason?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm working with two systems (mine and somebody else's) trying to print photographs -- trying is the right word, too. Both boxes are Slackware 13.0, both printers are H-P Photosmarts (a 3210 and a C4680), both systems have the latest and greatest HPLIP and CUPS software installed and both print everything else just fine. Photographs? Well, nuts: can't figure out how to get an image printed on standard 4x6 stock (meaning: fit or fill the image to the stock). Been fiddling with HPLIP settings, CUPS settings, fooling around with GIMP, twiddling everything I can come up with and there is no joy in Mudville to be had. About as close as I've gotten to, you know, a printed photograph that looks like a printed photograph is supposed to look is setting HPLIP options then printing with lp file.jpg but that doesn't actually work all that well.

I am trying to find a way to print PDFs from the command line. I was using "cups-pdf', but I want to be able to specify the output folder from the command line. Is there a way to do this?

View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to extract the last field? Specifying the field number is causing problems using awk or cut as the input log file has the output specified in different lines at different places/fields.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a program that monitors when an lp or basically any sort of print command is issued. If a print command is detected I want to pause that job and ask the user if he / she wants to continue.
This program would run in the background all the time so it can't sit and eat up a lot of cpu. I tried a simple while loop that continuously monitored "ps" and that obviously boosted my cpu to 100%.
Using current 32 bit I'm unable to print anything outside of KDE. If I print something from Konqueror or Koffice for instance, my printer shows up in the dialog and everything prints fine. However if I use openoffice or abiword, etc then my only option is to "print to file" It is a samba shared printer that is attached to a 13.1 server, but I don't know that that makes a difference.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a way to print the timestamp of a directory using find command. I can do that for a file, but for a directory, it is printing the contents of the directory as well. Lets say there is a directory called doc, and there are more than one occurrences of that directory.
find . -name "doc" -type d -exec ls -l {} ;
This is printing the contents of all the files under doc directory as well.
