During playing around sources, synaptic playing I messed up the default list. I know I should have been more careful. Anyways could someone tell me what the default the default sources.list that has free and non free etc for squueze please? I have been trying to get the default list but I cannot find it anywhere. There are alot of lists out there but nothing tagged like the "default" list.
I've got a question on free disk space. I'm currently running CentOS 5.5 on in Xenserver virtual environment. We've had an issue with disk space. My question is as follows: - from a ssh connection i run df -h this gives the value of 90% used leaving me with 9GB. If I use system monitor via a VNC connection the free disk space value is 20GB free on the same volume. Which one is correct? I do use SNMP to monitor the same volume and should alert me when < 10% is free I know this works as I set the alert threshold to < 90% I get an alert.
I've just installed Fedora 14 64bit and would like to add new repositories. I read here to do the following command (which as you can see doesn't works) :
Code:
$ su -c 'yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm'
I have installed F14 yesterday but i can not install rpmfusion repository, the problem is that i can not access the url [URL] so i cant download the files:
Am I asking too much for a FREE OS? Everybody spend their precious time to help others, that's very helpful.But it seems like there is no support from UBUNTU team,how could we even get through the barrier of not using Microsoft's OSes? No free lunch of course, but it seems to me some issues have never really been solved.I read lot's of people have problem with their WIFI, not just for my OLD USB wifi adapter. I don't have problem with WIFI in XP/Server.
I posted here and there, and seems like no answer, and I do not get any reply from UBUNTU support team,forgive me if I run out of google's keywords.I just need a simple answer, is my WIFI going to work in UBUNTU with a layman effort? I like linux and UBUNTU had put great effort in providing me such a great OS, but if a basic internet connection will need to spent sooo much time to setup, and it still doesn't work. IS IT WORTH to switch to UBUNTU at all
You right click on a file and choose Compress. How do you select the compression level for algorithms that support different levels? If you can't, what compression level does it use?
Is there any compression software that supports PAQ8 and its variants with a graphical interface for Fedora (i'm using x86_64)? What's the best compression algorithm known to man? Time taken to compress is not a problem, just need to have the best compression available. Is there any program for linux?
hy I can't make a 7z archive with file roller? I have already installed p7zip, p7zip-plugins, and 7za. I don't understand what the problem is. I can make a 7z archive from the command line with no problems. I keep getting this message but it doesn't tell me what the error is. Quote:An error occurred while adding files to the archive.
how to do Lempel-Ziv-Welch compression using pen and paper for my algorithms and data structures class. Unfortunately we have only a couple of examples in our book of how it is done. I'd like to practice compressing and decompressing text using it, but I need to find a way to check if I'm right doing it right or wrong.
So I'm looking for some preferably free/open source program which can compress and decompress LZW for Windows or GNU/Linux. Programs without binary distributions are fine too.
I notice in Nautilus file manager, if I right click on a directory, I can 'compress' that file or directory. clicking this provides options for different compression formats, but how do I know which one to use?Most of my files are data files, ie text. Though I do have photo/image folders and a music folde
i have about 22 gb of music (mp3 & ogg) on my laptop harddrive.i also have an unused sony mp3 player with a 20 gb hard drive.what i want to do is back up the 22gb into a 20 gb space the music does not need to be playable on the sony player...just using it as a back up device.ok...2 issues:1. when i've tried compressing (tar.gz) mp3 files, little to no space is saved, i assume that a mp3 is pretty compressed already.is there another way to compress effectively ? i dont want to reduce bit rates of the individual music tracks.2. i formatted the sony hd using ext4, but this leaves me with only 16 gb usable space. tried fat32 and this left me with about 18gb.
I�m installing fail2ban to improve the security of a home asterisk server which from time to time becomes the target of some sip account cracker and/or ssh brute force attack.For those not familiar with fail2ban, this utility monitors log files to find matches with user specified expressions to identify the presence of a brute force attack. Then configures iptables rules to block the offending IP.Here�s an example:
Code: NOTICE[1734] chan_sip.c: Registration from '"613"<sip:613@xx.xxxx.xxx.xxx>' failed for 'yyy.yyy.yyyy.yyy' - No matching peer found
I haven't seen this addressed anywhere & quite frankly a "google" wasn't any help. So I pose the question here. If I, under M$, turn on the NTFS compression, will that drive still work under LINUX? My thought is that it won't as I haven't seen any control in LINUX for it.
I use mplayer to play my media files. Occasionally I want to take screenshots of media I am playing. I use the -vf screenshot option to take screenshots which generates shotxxxx.png. The issue is that all those png are not compressed and usually large. When dealing with Hi-Def media they are extremely large, each is 4-5 MB in size at the least. Is there a way I can set the option for compression of png images. If I use imagemagick the same files get compressed to like 1.5MB of png file.
I am working on a project where I am dialing out of a modem!! Old stuff, ya, but the modem allows my device send info from remote sites from my datibase through a phone line so that this IT departments dont have to worry my device being a security issue on their networks.
Any way, the modem I'm using isn't incredibly well designed, and when a certain ascii char is read by the modem, it reads it as an EOF indicator. It is also important that the files I send are compressed.
My question is: Does anyone know of a compression format that allows ME to dissallow IT's use of certain ascii chars?
just as an illustration:
Device --------> Modem ---------> Off-site
and the Modem stops talking to the device when a certain char is passed to it.
some reason it seems like the lowest it goes is ~64kbps (~ implying variable bitrate).So yeah, any thing that'll let me do the compression limbo better? (How low can you go? ) A different program? Unlock bonus stage? What
I have printer whhich work perfectly on ubuntu desktop I shared it into network and trying to print from Mac and I'm getting the following error: "SpliX Compression algorithm 0x0 does not exist" Printer - Samsung SCX-4200
I compressed a directory containing many image files. The directory amounted to 5.3gig. Compressed with TAR using .tgz the compression took a couple minutes at most and compressed down to 4.3 gig. Compressed using .bz2 the compression took about 90 minutes and compressed down to 4.2 gig. Hardly worth the extra time. Do these numbers look normal to you?
I want to rip all my CDs to flac at the lowest compression (space is not an issue) via Banshee. I have tried a few tracks but the seem to be ripped at a higher compression to the ones I have done via sound juicer (set at compression 0)
How do I adjust the flac settings in Banshee to do this? The option to edit the settings is not available for flac? I guess there is a config file somewhere?
I am trying to convert hundreds of BMPs into a single AVI file, without compression. Since every pixel matters in my case, I don't want any kind of compression. It's fine if the output file is extremely large.
I'd like to know if it's possible to achieve this with packages coming with Ubuntu 11.04. I have tried ffmpeg/mencoder, but they either compressed the output file, or the output file is not playable in totem. I am a new user for both tools. there is actually a way to get uncompressed avi from these tools.
"BMP to AVI Sequencer" [URL] does the job perfectly. I successfully converted 180 1080P BMPs into a 1G avi, running at 30 fps. Unfortunately I need a command line tool this time.
We have been using an Ultrium LTO-2 tape drive to perform backups of certain information from our file server. Recently, the data that we are backing up has grown too large to fit on the tapes in their 200GB uncompressed capacity. I have been looking around for a way to enable the compression in the drive, but I haven't found much. I am not using any backup software, so I'm not sure if I'll even be able to. I write the tape using a simple 'tar' command, so there aren't a whole lot of options to be set. Is there a way that I can enable the drive's compression, or would I be better off running the tar command with the gzip or bzip flags?
I have 160gb laptop. i installed vista in c primary partition which is 25gb and installed ubuntu in d primary partition which is 20gb. A remainig for my data. Now i tried to install CENT OS by formatting ubuntu. I inserted CENT OS DVD and restarted and i selected to delete my /dev/sda2 which is showing 20480mb and it shown me free space. but i tried to add partion /boot of 100mb it got added. but, when i am trying to add / of 3000mb in the remaining 20380mb free space it showing an error message that no free space is available.
