Software :: Making A Symlink From 1.2 To 1.4 Fixed VirtualBox - FVWM2 Does Not Compile

Feb 9, 2010

FVWM and VirtualBox stopped working when I upgraded from libpng 1.2 to 1.4. Making a symlink from 1.2 to 1.4 fixed VirtualBox, but FVWM does not compile (this happened before I made the symlink, too).Here are a few lines from the end of the output of make:

Code:

gcc -DFVWM_MODULEDIR="/usr/local/libexec/fvwm/2.5.28" -DFVWM_DATADIR="/usr/local/share/fvwm" -DFVWM_CONFDIR="/usr/local/etc" -DFVWM_COLORSET_PRIVATE=1 -DLOCALEDIR="/usr/local/share/locale" -Wall -Wno-implicit-int -g -O2 -o fvwm menus.o style.o borders.o events.o move_resize.o builtins.o add_window.o icons.o fvwm.o frame.o placement.o virtual.o menustyle.o conditional.o ewmh.o stack.o

Ubuntu Networking :: How I Fixed Asus USB-N13 Compile Errors In Ubuntu 10.10

Oct 21, 2010

It seems with the newer linux headers, two functions changed their names slightly and caused a crash when attempting to build the Asus-provided USB-N13 drivers.

I'm still in the middle of getting the device to work, but actually compiling the driver was a major problem for me and others I've seen that complained of the breakage in 10.10.

Here's the fix:
Within the include/os/rt_linux.h and os/linux/rt_usb_util.c files, the usb_buffer_alloc and usb_buffer_free functions are part of an internal macro. These functions do not exist anymore and are replaced by the usb_alloc_coherent and usb_free_coherent respectively. Input parameters did not change, just the names.

The macro is defined in rt_linux.h and the functions are used in a symbol export within rt_usb_util.c. Simply renaming the functions should allow it to build.

As I said, I'm still in the process of getting the wireless to work, just wanted to let everyone know of the quick fix.

This issue will probably be addressed with a macro fix somewhere eventually.


#define usb_alloc_coherent(a, b, c, d) usb_buffer_alloc(a, b, c, d)
#define usb_free_coherent(a, b, c, d) usb_buffer_free(a, b, c, d)

OpenSUSE :: Making A Bootable ISO From DVD For VirtualBox?

May 23, 2011

I started with a bootable Windows 7 Upgrade DVD. I tested the DVD by booting from DVD in a physical drive. The system put up a "press any key to install from CD/DVD" and it worked. Now, I attempted to make a bootable ISO for VirtualBox... To make the ISO, I used this:

dd if=/dev/sr0 of=windows7.iso bs=2048 conv=sync

which I've read will clone the DVD and its boot ability? Is this correct? When I start VirtualBox, version 4.0.8 r71778, I get the "FATAL: No bootable medium found! System halted." The IDE Primary Master (CD/DVD) is set to see windows7.iso, so I suspect it sees the ISO, only it doesn't appear to be bootable. SATA Port 0 is set to Windows 7.vdi. Am I missing a step somewhere? The system is running openSUSE 11.4.

Fedora :: Fvwm2 And Gnome Keyboard Not Working

Dec 24, 2010

trying to figure this out for a while.

fvwm2 2.5.30
gnome-session 2.28.0
Fedora 12 64 bit

I have this setting in my .fvwm2rc: Key q A 4 Close The above works fine in fvwm without gnome, but when I execute gnome-session, seems the modifier is ignored. If I replace the '4' with 'A' and restart fvwm2 under gnome (fvwm2 --replace) the letter q will close the window. But with '4' or 'M' with gnome-session, the modifier is ignored. Also tried : xmodmap -e "add mod4 = Super_L"

Ubuntu :: Samba Symlink Change With 10.10?

Oct 10, 2010

I have a server with my music on it. There is a network share where all my machines can access that music. In the past I have created a link inside the Music folder of each user/machine which links to the Samba share. I have been doing this by linking to /home/[username]/.gvfs/share on server.

In 8.10 I am able to drag and drop to create the necessary link from Music to share on server. With maybe 9.10 I lost the ability to drag and drop the link and had to resort to the command line ( ln -s "/home/[username]/.gvfs/share on server" /home/[username]/Music ). With 10.10 I don't seem to be able to create this link using any method. (Any link which is created is linked to / .) (After 8.10 admin rights are required to create the link from ~/.gvfs/whatever.) This method is very handy as all of the machines and users point to the exact same location for their music (~/Music/share) and if I can't create that link this system of organization fails.

how to undo this?

"Simply change the symlink so that it points to /bin/bash. To do this, open a terminal, and type the following:

sudo rm -f /bin/sh
sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh

From now on your scripts should work as their authors expected."

General :: Why Can't Make Symlink Except As Root

Mar 13, 2010

In my MIDI music collection, I have a "best" folder with duplicate copies of only my favorite files. Recently I thought, why waste memory with duplicates--can't I just put symlinks in the "best" folder? So I tried to, in Konqueror. It would only let me make the symlinks from the Konqueror superuser account.

General :: Do Symlink Or Hardlink At Start Up?

Jun 7, 2011

2.6.38-8-generic
Mint 11 64 bit

I'm trying to move a file from a directory to another one and create a symlink but seem to be doing something wrong. Have done "man ln" and looked up info in coreutils but I don't seem to be able to get it right. There are two files in ./home/jim/.config/banshee-1/ that I want to move to ./home/jim/Dropbox/banshee. I have created backups of both and created the new folder in Dropbox. see attached screen shots. I then run

Code: jim@saturn ~ $ sudo ln - ./home/jim/Dropbox/banshee/banshee.db ./home/jim/.config/banshee-1/banshee.db
ln: creating symbolic link `./home/jim/.config/banshee-1/banshee.db': No such file or directory and get the above error message. Now I know symlinks do not need to be complete at the time of creation, but I'm not sure if I have done this right or not and if I try and read and write banshee.db at the original location if it will do it properly and efficiently. Is this a case where I should do a hardlink instead and have both files. If I want to do this every time at start up, how do I automate the commands once I have them right?

Software :: KDE Paste A File As A Symlink?

Jun 16, 2010

if it is possible to copy and paste as a symlink.

It seems to me that the only way to create a shortcut or symlink is through the command line. I use KDE.

This was one of the most basic things Windows could do since Windows 95, and is one of the simplest shortcuts I dearly miss since leaving Windows.

Software :: How To Change Timestamp Of Symlink

Feb 10, 2010

I have a directory containing files and symlinks to files elswhere. I make a copy of the directory like this:
cp -rp dir/* new_dir

The files in new_dir have their original timestamps, but the symlinks have the current time. touch -t does not operate on the symblink but on the files they reference. Is there a way to set the timestamp of the symlink to a time in the past?

General :: Create Symlink For Every File Want To Include?

Jul 4, 2010

I have a CMS I have developed, which will run on several sites all hosted in sub directories on my dedicated server. I want to create symlinks for the main files of the CMS, including all config files, functions and admin sections. Then there will be a few files specific to each site.I read some tutorials on creating symlinks, although most are not very good in my opinion.

Do you have to create a symlink for every file I want to include? Or can I just create a symlink to a directory? For example:CMS is located at /www/cms/.Can I make www/domain1/ point to that directory, and if so, will all files include themselves correctly. I think I am a bit confused on how this works.

Fedora :: Change Lib Symlink Everytime Restart F14?

Feb 19, 2011

Because I am working with some 3d software, and to be able to start it I need to symlink libGL.so.1 and libGL.so.1.2 from /usr/lib64/ to libGL.so.1 and libGL.so.1.2 from /usr/lib64/catalyst/ folder. I move existing libs to new names by adding .bak at the end of file name.

But everytime I restart machine soemthing changes libGL.so.1 linking from libGL.so.1.2 (in catalyst folder) to libGL.so.1.2.bak (in usr/lib64/ folder), original file. And I can not start 3d software. Can I stop that from happening somehow? Why is that happening at all?

General :: Shell - On (CentOS 5), Remembering When We've Followed A Symlink And Being About To 'cd?

I'm trying to figure out how to tell the shell (tcsh) to remember when I've gone into a symlinked folder, and allow 'cd' to navigate back out of the symlink rather than just navigate to the parent directory of the linked-to folder...

For example:

$ ls -al /jobs
tech -> /mnt/projects1/tech
temp -> /mnt/projects2/temp
$ cd /jobs/tech
$ cd ../temp
../temp: No such file or directory.
$ pwd
/mnt/projects1/tech

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba Share With Symlink?

Jul 26, 2010

I have mounted a samba share on my desktop from a remote server (with smb4k). There I created a symlink to "/". When I open the symlink with konqueror it opens the right one (the root directory of the server), but when i open this link with the shell (cd rootfs/), then it opens my local root directory (of my host)... Is it possible to open the right link with the shell?

Ubuntu :: Command Line Symlink Reallocation?

Aug 7, 2010

I'm running a clean install of Lucid on a new HD. I've moved over all my old data and files from the previous Karmic system, and am having trouble with a directory full of symlinks. This is a collection of links into my photographs, which I use for wallpaper with Desktop Drapes, and the directory has 1300 symlinks which now point to the wrong place.

I only need to change the first part of the link target:
/oldplace/somedir/subdir/photo.jpg
into:
/newplace/somedir/sudir/photo.jpg

I believe this needs the application of _ ln _ in a terminal to re-write the symlink, and the use of a bash line including _ if . . fi _ or possibly _ IFS _ ? I might also need to use _ sed, - but I'm not sure of the syntax for this.
