somebody have recommanded me to use aria2 to manage my downloads, I like it, but i'm not yet familiar with it, i have few questions :1- how can i continue a download i have stoped it ? 2- should i be in the same directory always ? 3- if i want to download the same file from different URLs, can i write them in a file and use the -i option to download it ?
i want to install aria2 on fc12. it seems the package is not on repositories. yum shows the package but can not download it. i tried to download the package manually but could not find it.
I have a computer under Linux with several network cards, for example: eth0, eth1, eth2, eth3. Is there some way to run any downloader, like aria2 or wget only through one interface, for example eth0?
Main problem: for some reason I can't use iptables
I did recently install aria2 and everything installed smoothly. but i am not able to locate it. I know it will be in the applications->internet but its not there.
I am using UBUNTU 9.10 64 bit the other day my machine acted up, I had to restart it 5-6 times to start and now I have NO download capability I have tried YAHOO and GOOGLE to no avail
I have found EDIT-PREFERENCE-OVERALL-DOWNLOAD but NOTHING works.
For example, unable to download new software or remove software.In Terminal I get:xxx@xx-desktop:~$ users-admin(users-admin:2604): atk-bridge-WARNING **: AT_SPI_REGISTRY was not started at session startup.(users-admin:2604): atk-bridge-WARNING **: IOR not set.(users-admin:2604): atk-bridge-WARNING **: Could not locate registry(Wonder if this is relevant.Computer would not work: no signal. Friend cured it by unplugging and replugging memory boards.)
I am at a university where my bandwidth is severely capped. I can start several other computers near me and download at the limited speed simultaneously. Is there any way for me to share the download between the computers to get the cumulative speed?
I just installed 11.04, and the software center is almost unusable. I'm currently clocking about 32kb/s on my modern laptop. Does anyone know how to fix this? PS- During install, it took 20 minutes to download the language packs, and it said I would be there close to forever for the update downloads.
This is our first time choosing and installing linux. Our other servers are all windows 2008 x64. We were told to install fedora 13. I can only find a download for the desktop version and we're looking for the SERVER x64 download. Could I please get a link?

How to repartition a hard drive using Mepis 3.3, none of the listed sites will open to me. Is this the best software to repartition a new Windows 7 hard drive? I notice there are later versions of the Mepis software.
I have been using ubuntu for a good time and now i want to install opensuse.I have dwnlded the new (11.2) version 2 times but on installing it says unable to create repository. it takes a full day to dwnld here.. please suggest how to use the existing dwnld or a way toget a correct dwnld. i think the earlier one is corrupt.
Here at home I have several Ubuntu installations, mine, the kids computers and a couple of laptops. What I'm looking for is a solution or a pointer in the right direction to setup on our local Ubuntu server a sort of cache. Each day each Ubuntu on the network, checks for updates and downloads, and installs. What I'm looking for is a way for one machine to download the update and then the others to download from the local resource.
A sort of local cache to try and minimise everyone downloading straight from the net for pretty much the same updates. I did a emerge cache many years ago when I was using Gentoo, so I'm wondering what I can use/do here with Ubuntu as we are all loving this distro now.
I haved tried 3 times to download DVD-7 from http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/...md64/jigdo-dvd, and every time it has failed with just 5 files left to download.
It says: I cannot begin to describe. All those hours of downloading for nothing! What the heck is happening here? When I try to just continue on, I get error code 3 aborts and have to just start all over.
First I go to the following URL to download the latest version of VLC Player, which I greatly prefer to Totem or any other standard Linux video/audio player: http://www.fileguru.com/Movie-Player/download. After I click on the "Download" link, a new window appears which asks me if I want to 1) Open with Archive Manager (default) or 2) Save File. There is a drop down arrow next to the first choice which only gives "Other..." as the only other choice. Well, if I choose the first option, the download appears as an .exe file in the "Downloads" window.
A window with "Download Error" in its Title Bar appears with the following message in it: "/tmp/VLC_Player_Setup-3.exe could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences." I don't even know yet how to even open up an .exe file in Linux, despite repeated research.
Which download manager i can use for linux and how...kindly let me know can i use windows download manager such as DAP or internet download manager with wine in linux...
I have my SSL csr and crt, but seem to have lost my key. Am I hosed? Apache won't start without the crt and key. Can openssl generate a key with the csr and crt?
Following a smaller problem I uninstalled Nautilus (bad idea) hoping a reinstall would fix the problem. I now get to the log on screen but can't log on, not as user or root. I can boot from CD and run the anaconda repair utility but this is where I have absolutely no idea what to do. I'm running F9 and the Gnome desktop environment.
I updated my computer Wednesday (01-20-2010) and excluded three mesa... files and one xorg... file. I had recently read that people were having problems with these particular updates and I wanted to address them separately (to isolate any problems I may have). I think I may have screwed things up by accidently including the libdrm file. This file was previously missing for the mesa updates. The update I did included several plymouth... files also (don't know if it matters). Now I have a black screen with a cursor, after the fedora (charge) logo completes.
If I hit Ctrl-Alt-F2 I can get a login prompt. I logged in and tried to go back and update (as root) the four files I had excluded, hoping to fix the problem. Now I am getting the following errors during the yum update. The first two lines are repeated several times. I can't scroll back to see what's at the beginning.
Originally I installed both GNOME and KDE. Later, grew tired of KDE and its applications making space on my menu, so I decided to uninstall it, using yum groupremove. I didn't notice that yum was also removing Network Manager and other programs needed by GNOME. Then, when I restarted the computer, it freezes before it could show the "user login". I'm able to access the Linux command line if I press F1 during loading, but I don't know what to do next! I tried to fix the GRUB configuration, but it didn't have any effect.
I have a system with 10 drives running Linux software RAID using RAID 6. Today the system stopped responding and needed to be hard power cycled. The filesystem on the RAID (note, not the root filesystem, that's on its own drive) is in tact and the data is still there.
But I noticed during the boot sequence this:
The first part didn't surprise me, it just seemed that a drive dropped out. No big deal, RAID is designed to handle just that. But that last bit concerned me. I didn't like the term "capacity change" on my RAID.
As I said before, the filesystem is fine. No change from before:
But /proc/mdstat says this:
Notice the [10/9]. I've seen it say [9/10] when a drive mistakenly dropped out before. And after re-syncing it went back to [10/10] as expected. But does this mean something different? Is there something else that needs to be done besides just letting this finish? Has the RAID somehow changed its shape in some way?
So I was messing around with LVM trying to turn 3 ~300GB drives into one LVM under 1TB. I scrapped the idea after not being able to combine hdc and hdd into a VG called doctor/frankenstein while using hde as swap space to move the single ext3 primaries onto the VG. I am now battling to recover the contents of hdc back!
Ok I just got my self in a mess. I wanted to change a users password and some how changed mine instead. I am the administrator. (go figure) now I can only log on to the users account I tried old password I tried no password I tried users password
No luck all failed. I am off to work so will not be able to respond until tonight so I hope you guys have a few tricks up your sleeve.
