Software :: Creating A Simple Postscript File?
Apr 4, 2011
I would like to do something that should be fairly simple but can not find a way for it.
I want to make a page in postscript or pdf format containing four lines of text and two png images.
Would you know an easy way to concatenate my text file with the two images in a ps or pdf file?
I need a solution that works via command line only as this is for a script.
I use redhat 5 for this and would prefer not having to install any extra software.

Anyone know of any programs to convert a postscript file to a gerber file? LinkCAD can do it, but, it is very expensive and I can't get the demo to run.

I am wanting to try creating a simple program through Terminal. Anything will do. A window or button, etc. I haven't found anything simple enough online yet, but I'm sure they're out there. I just want to expand my knowledge of gtk type stuff. Sorry if this is not the correct category to ask this. I was going to put this on the Community Cafe forum, but chose General Help instead. I am running Ubuntu Lucid. **Edit note: I did try the procedure described at the url (below), but I got all kinds of errors in terminal. [URL]

I want to create simple webcam effects filters. I am only interested in doing relatively simple image processing like blurring or averaging the color. I would like to create the filters in either C or Python.
So before I dive into using Gstreamer or V4L I wanted to ask the forum if they have had any experience with webcam development?

My Ubuntu Karmic install has a very useful Print-to-File Printer configured which allows me to generate Postscript and PDF files.
I have Windows XP running on Virtualbox and I want to be able to generate PDF files using this printer but there appear to be no Printers configured.

I am using an Ubuntu 64 bit desktop. I need to create a network (the way you create a workgroup in windoz). I have two other machines running Ubuntu also and all connected to a 3-Com switch through ethernet. I would prefer not to use DHCP, and just have a simple network where I can share resources like drives and printers.

I need a program that automaticly runs this command in the terminal when I use it:
sudo modprobe nvidia_g210m_acpi
Sure, I know that it's not that hard to just write it in terminal and so on, but I really want a program for it. I'm using ubuntu 11.04 if U need to know that?

I was thinking to install a very basic SSH gate, secured over SSL, like this [URL]
using PHP. However I would like to have it very basic and simple to install. (not database SQL, nor complicated things, ...) so that I get a prompt page with login and password to access the SSH-internet, and then can SSH the linux box over SSL and regular port 80 like they do. passwd would be in a txt file or whatever. You use index.htm and no one can scroll the tree of the directory. Would have someone already embedded php code for that?

I would like to a build a CD image (of CentOS 5, x86_64 that loads into memory and boots to the OS without installing anything to hard drives. Then I would like the system to execute a shell script automatically. The shell script will have commands that will control execution.
The goal of this exercise is basically to pre-configure a system (RAID config, BIOS update, etc) automatically using the shell script before installing the OS. I would like the ability to change the shell script as needed and probably repackage the ISO image. I would prefer not to deal with building a source tree to accomplish this. this is something one could do using mkisofs.

Been using gv and vi to build a postscript file. Now I would like to save the output of the program to a disk file. My problem is I can't figure out how to "print to a file".

I downloaded three iso-images, 1 dvd-image and 2 cd-images:
openSUSE-11.3-DVD-i586.iso
openSUSE-11.3-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
openSUSE-11.3-KDE4-LiveCD-i686.iso
Being paranoid, I created iso-files from the burnt DVD-R and the two burnt CD-R to verify integrity.
The iso-file of the DVD-R was identical to the downloaded image. Both iso-files created from the CD-R were different in size.
The original size of openSUSE-11.3-KDE4-LiveCD-i686.iso is 719.323.136 Bytes.
I only got 718.938.112 Bytes when recreating an ISO-file from my CD-R.
The CD-R is from Sony. When the length of my ISO-file doesn't correspond to the downloaded one, the checksum file verification doesn't work.

have a built piece of software that I wrote with a whopping 3 files included total.Iwant to package this inside an rpm. I don't need complex stuff like postinstall scripts, dependencies, subpackages, or any of that stuff. I just want a simple rpm with the 3 files, a package identifier, and a summary. I am not planning on posting this rpm on a repo such as fedora or rpmfusion.

error message when I ran my program that I couldn't open my local file. I have two files first one is called client, second one is called server I am using named pipes to sent a message from client to the other file called server in client I used mknod() to create the two named pipes,one for read,one for write and created new thread in client using fork() spawned a child process that executed the server file both named pipes are opened the client file got the message from the user and sent it through the named pipes to the server file when the server receives the message , it needs to verfify it is correct in the server file, a local file descriptor is created to read and send this verifing message when it is not correct but I am getting an OPEN() error when I tried to open this shared local array buff and attach it to a file descriptor where the message is kept why do I get this error in server file
int main()
{
/*both named pipes are open*/
rfd=open(IFIO1,0);
wfd=open(IFIO2,1);

I would like to set the firewall in Ubuntu Server 10.10 up to be very secure but perform these tasks:
1. File server to windows 7 and windows xp machines both over ethernet and wireless via a router.
2. Print server for these 2 machines.
3. Auto backup these 2 machines.
So far I have set the server up with a static ip, do the 2 windows machines need static ip's as well? I don't need remote access to the server, only over the lan. I thought this may be all I needed to do:
Code:
$ sudo ufw default deny incoming
$ sudo ufw default allow outgoing
$ sudo ufw allow ssh
$ sudo ufw allow Samba
$ sudo ufw allow rsync
$ sudo ufw enable
But would this block auto updates to the server and auto backup of my files?

I am trying to deploy a very simple file server in my company's network.The goal is just to have a file server with DAT backup, nothing more.I managed to configure Samba to show a share visible in the Windows network, with free read and write to everyone. For this I configured "Autentication Mode = user", and read/write access to all users in the specified share.
Of course, I would like to have the possibility to establish permissions based in AD-users. For that, I tried to add my CentOS machine to AD.I followed the guide in:
[URL]
I can get the kerberos "kinit" command to autenticate in Windows AD: I can access the Windows machines in the network as administrator and "klist" shows the valid ticket.But, when trying the "join", I always get the "No logon servers" error.I googled around for this, and it seems that this is a common error and there is no "magic approach" for it...
So, my questions are:
- Can this be achieved only by the Samba configuration tool (Gui)? I think not, as we need to change kerberos settins
- What would be the correct settings for krb5.conf?
- Are there any other services/files needed to adjust?

Open from the Administrator panel - Add or Remove Software than search for VLC and tick the main stuff and install.

I wrote a script which analysis apache logs. This script generates a tab separated data file. There is two columns in the data. The first column is a file name accessed from remote. The second column shows how many times a file access.
I am looking for a linux command drawing a chart corresponding data.of course, I know that I can draw the chart in OpenOffice Calc. That's not what I need. Because there is some steps to do for a simple chart drawing. If there is a command line tool, then I can write a script that drawing a chart when the data file is updated.

I have two web servers. One is active and one is in reserve. I keep the user data (web pages) in sync by running rsync every 10 minutes or so. This copies any changes from the active machine to the reserve machine. But, it's slow, only gets changes every 10 minutes, bogs down the disk, does strange things to files that are changing during the rsync process etc...
I want something that will automatically copy any changes from the active server to the reserve server as they are made. IE I hit 'save' on the active server, it copies the file to the reserve server. Simple!
I've been looking around and I see GFS which is really vastly more complicated than I need. I'm happy with read-only access on the reserve host, so I don't need distributed lock management.
I could theoretically implement this by setting inotify watchers on every file and running an SCP or rsync command when a file gets saved. So, it can't be that hard.
I do not need a true networked file system, as in something I mount over the network. I just want something to keep my disks in sync.

Quite often I need someone to transfer a file to my laptop, and it's often different OS to different OS, and setting file-sharing, sshd/ssh, ftpd/ftp, and whatever else not is often not worth it. A USB key is also not always handy or big enough.
But, it's easy to be on the same network, just hard to get service working on top of it in less than 3 minutes if you've never dealt with that person's computer before.
What I was thinking would be the simplest thing would be if I could run apache, and have a very simple web script that simply allows file uploads. Something that would serve a web page that has a "choose file" button which brings up the file dialog, pretty standard I guess. I wouldn't say no to a few more functions on top of that.
Given that, does anyone know of a simple apache modules, or a web server script (language doesn't matter) that would allow for this?

Anyone have a simple apache2 configuration file package I could get?I'm trying to serve a internal network site for files throughout my network, (music, video, etc). I remember when I did this with Redhat 5-6 and all I had to do was redirect the folder I wanted to share over apache and it worked. You could click on the file you wanted and it played, etc.For some reason I can't even get apache2 that ships with Ubuntu 10.04.02 to even have a "It worked!" internal site or anything. I haven't configured apache2 ever before. It seems to have grown from one or two configuration files to five or so!

Is there a simple web-based solution for a group looking to securely share files online? The software needs to run on our own servers due to regulatory laws. I want users to be able to go to a web site, request an account (which I should be able to accept or reject), and upload/download/manage files in a web-based (preferably ajax-y) file manager. File access controls (via users/groups) is desirable.Yes, I know that SSH/SFTP is the 'proper' solution, but many of the users will be office workers and installing an SFTP client and configuring it is too advanced for them. Same goes for Samba+VPN setups...

I am working on a script to convert a comma seperated text file into html code line by line. The text file is like so:
Code:
link url, image url, description and I want it to output this:
Code:
<td><a href=�link url�><img src="image url" alt=�description" /></a></td>
Here is what I have so far:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
var1='<td><a href=
var2='><img src="'
var3='" alt=�thumbnail image" /></a></td>'
[code].....
It puts the entire line into the html so its no good. I'll probably need to use awk (I think).

I have a folder of 2 many files that the old ls just hangs.
I am trying to write some log files such as;
I don't mind doing one at a time, but I am just playing and even getting the listing I am not getting the date stamp, I have the following;
That does create the file, but all the files look like this;
So basically it's just sticking that ls inside the log file and not actually running the ls, so how can I use the above type to get files just created per year?

I have two computers on my home lan I am trying to share files between...My desktop which is running Ubuntu Server 10.10 (x64) with a GUI, and my laptop which is running Ubuntu Desktop 10.04. I have tried a million different tutorials regarding SAMBA setup, but they never work.
In addition, most of those tutorials are geared towards hybrid Linux/Windows environment. I do not have any microsoft product in my home. I have created the share on my server, but I'm not sure how to connect to it from the laptop (once again at this point in the tutorials it explains how to access it from a Windows PC). I tried using the menu doing this:
Places-->Connect To Server-->Service Type-->Windows Share (for the server I tried my server hostname and IP) to no avail. Does anyone know of a recent step by step tutorial for setting up a complete Ubuntu environment? Is there a simpler method I can use since I do not particularly need to use SMB protocol?
All I want to do is share my music folder from my server so I can access it (from the same LAN) on my laptop...Arrrghhh frustrating.

I use Linux for my everyday work but lately I've been faced with a trouble when I send out file printouts from my browser from my Debian system to (normally) window$ systems, where they are not readable. Is there a way for me to convert the postscript files into pdf format? Most window$ users will have some sort of pdf reader installed but I am still to find one user that has Ghostscript and Ghostview installed. where can I find the TTF fonts that are shipped with every standard installation of Debian? I'm sometimes forced to print files through a windows system and because the fonts loaded in that system are not the ones I use in Debian (URW Gothic L, as an example) I end up having my official documents disfigured. If I can carry around with me a ready-to-install fonts package I can get over this obstacle.

To convert a text file to postscript format is easy with groff:groff -Tps file >file.ps But what if the input file is utf-8 (with non English characters in it)? How can you specify the encoding to groff or do you have to pipe the file through some other command?
