Software :: More Usable Interface Than Fairly Sparse Man Pages Available?
Dec 29, 2010
I am interested in setting up speech recognition on my notebook. I have installed Sphinx3 and pocket_sphinx for my distro (Fedora 14), but have googled without success looking for an entry-level guide to get me started.I am wading through the doco at CMU, but I'm finding it hard to relate their text to the installed files on my system. They assume the user has downloaded and compiled from source, whereas I just used 'yum'.
Better: is there a front-end which presents a more usable interface than the fairly sparse man pages available? The sphinx3* tools do not seem to have any man pages and pocket_sphinx has man pages that assume I know what I am doing. As far as speech recognition is concerned, I am very much a pbeu (poor blinking end user) with no training.

I have a bzip2 compressed disk image, and I would like to uncompress it again onto my disk without using up lots of space, in fact there isnt enough space on my disk if I were to uncompress it as is. However it was a sparse file with lots of space in its original form, so I know it will fit if I can uncompress it directly as sparse. Is there some combination of bzip2, cat, cp, dd or friends I can use to pipe the output from bzip2 directly to a sparse file again?

I have a matrix of dimensions 100 x 100. It is a sparse matrix. It has 460 non-zero values (9540 are zero values).
I want to find inverse of this matrix.

I'm trying to extract the sender id from a fairly large number of files and am having trouble assigning variables from a file. Here is what I have so far, (which is fairly kludgy I know, but it's been some years since I've done any scripting or programming, and I find that I have lost the knack to a large degree).

I have a bunch of disk images, made with ddrescue, on an EXT partition, and I want to reduce their size without losing data, while still being mountable. How can I fill the empty space in the image's filesystem with zeros, and then convert the file into a sparse file so this empty space is not actually stored on disk?
For example:
> du -s --si --apparent-size Jimage.image
120G Jimage.image
> du -s --si Jimage.image
121G Jimage.image
This actually only has 50G of real data on it, though, so the second measurement should be much smaller.
This supposedly will fill empty space with zeros: cat /dev/zero > zero.file rm zero.file But if sparse files are handled transparently, it might actually create a sparse file without writing anything to the virtual disk, ironically preventing me from turning the virtual disk image into a sparse file itself. :) Does it? Note: For some reason, sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=./zero.file works when cat does not on a mounted disk image.

There is a very conspicuous inaccuracy in the output of df. I should mention, that it was noticed to to a sudden change in the amount of space that was left on the backup partition. The df -h command produces the following output.

I have a Cent OS 5.4 32 bit final installed in my dedicated server.
I used to run lighttpd with php in my server until now and all was fine.But yesterday I changed my website which needs apache to run. So installed apache using yum install httpd command.
Then I added the virtual host name of my domain in webmin panel but when i try to run my php script in browser then its not opening php pages.
Instead it downloads php files like index.php when i open in browser.So I guess apache is not able to compile and run php pages. Only html pages are opening right now..

I've read most of the install instructions for installing Fedora 14 from live dvd and it seems fairly straightforward except for when I would get to the "Installation Type" screen.I have read several different ways to approach this part of the install and was wondering what to do. I do not know if I have the knowledge to create a custom layout and add a shared partition for XP and Fedora or even if such is necessary. I do not know if their is a simpler option that will work.Windows XP, pentium 4, one hard drive, dual boot windows and Fedora on the same drive.

I have inherited an ubuntu system and I'm currently having problems with my console (using putty.)
My bash console is usable but only just barely.
None of the colors are working so I can't tell what it a directory and what isn't. When I hit the up arrow I just get : ^[[A instead of my last statement.
Left arrow: ^[[D
Right arrow: ^[[C
Down arrow: ^[[B

I'm very new to Linux, and I have ran a Windows XP server before, with a Apache2 Server software for Windows. and didn't have any problems with it, but I really want to set this server up with Linux.
The server is running, but the only thing that comes up in the browser, is the html pages, the pages call all the images from a folder /images/ but for some reason I can't get it to pull the folder up. None of the graphics show on any of the pages.
I also have a VirtualHost setup, and have another website set up in the DocumentRoot with the 2nd site, but it won't come up ether, even tho it is listed as the 2nd VirtualHost, and have that folder set up as the DocumentRoot.
I'm just using IP Addresses for now till I get this all sorted out.So if I enter the IP the main page comes up, just no graphics. if I enter the IP Address/2ndSiteFolder/ I get a directory listing with the 2nd site folder listed, so now if I click on the 2ndSiteFolderName, it comes up as IP/2ndSiteFolder/2ndSiteFolder/ Now the 2nd site comes up, and so does all the Graphics for that site, even if I go to some of the other subfolders site. So its just weird. I don't know what I need to do to get this to work right.
I know it has to do with setting up the folders for VirtualHost, I just don't know what it is. I have been working on this for a week, and I'm not getting anywhere..

I am new to linux, am attempting to abandon microsoft because after 30 years I have had enough of being jerked around by them. I have used yast to install the components of Postgresql and pgAccess, including language support for Tcl/Tk. Starting the postgresql server is successful.
I would like to use pgAccess as a front end to the server/databases. However, nothing I do seems to make pgAccess available. I can't invoke it and can't find it on a menu anywhere. In searching forums on this issue they all discuss compiling postgresql and pgAccess on the local machine, no one talks about how to use pgaccess whose installation was managed by a gui. Do I need to start over, removing everything I installed with yast, and go with the command line installs and compiles, or can I use what yast installed?

I'm planning to install openSUSE on a rather old computer(1,5 GB RAM 2,2 GHz Intel Celeron) and I have only 3,6 GB disk space at my disposal. Using Xfce or LXDE desktop environment what is the minimum installation size I can get while retaining a usable system?

I'm looking for an app that will provide a large (full screen and clear) display countdown clock, basically so I can use my laptop in public to show how much time remains in a basketball quarter. I'm the official timer.If it counts up like in soccer rather than down, that's fine too. If the app can also show the score, that would be great, but it is not a requirement. We don't use a shot clock, so that is not required either.

I have F14 x86_64 installation on my laptop. I once used latex vary well. After recent update of the system, there seems to be a latex font problem. When I ran xdvi, the dvi window flashed once and disappeared immediately.
The error in the terminal is:
Code:
$ xdvi ms
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset
Error: Aborting: no fontset found
I have xorg-x11-font-utils, xorg-x11-fonts-misc, xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi, and xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi installed. I then ran:
Code:
# yum install xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859*
to install some extra fonts. But the problem remained. What shall I do?

I'm in the process of trying to install FC14 64 bit to my Window 7 64 bit system. This new system has a 6.0 Gb/s internal hard drive.When I reboot with the F14 install disk I have made it past the disk verification (is Verified) and then picking a language but then I get the message "No usable disks have been found". In Win 7, the Disk Management window shows that 184 GB of space are free. Is there some disk preparation that I should do to make this space available?

I previously used 11.1 with KDE 3.5. Since I have /home on a separate partition I decided to install 11.2 from scratch to avoid any conflicts with KDE 4 installing. No problems on first reboot and some updates were installed. Now at each boot I'm dropped into text login. If I try <startx> I get <no screens found> and /var/log/Xorg.0.log gives <screens found but none have usable configuration>. However if I add vga=952 at the boot screen (for a 1280x800 laptop) I get into graphical login and everything works well (yes even KDE 4). Below is an snip from /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
Section "Monitor"
Option "CalcAlgorithm" "XServerPool"
DisplaySize 305 230
HorizSync 30-52
Identifier "Monitor[0]"
ModelName "1280X800@60HZ"
Option "DPMS"
Option "PreferredMode" "1280x800"
VendorName "--> LCD"

Still a flawed KnetworkManager in the released 11.3.No user control for cabled 10/100 lan ports. Yast config for the eth0 says it can have usercontrol by networkmanager. Oh no it doesn't.It seems to cater for wi-fi users only who get a "enable wireless" tickbox and "manage connections". At least you can stop and start it.Meanwhile cable users who might have a taskbar display for lan traffic can see stuff pouring in, or out and if it's something they don't want they can't do anything about it unless they pull the plug.

I installed 10.04 as I heard the ipod touch support in Banshee / rhythmbox was as good as itunes for synbching music files. However with the base install I was unable to transfer to my ipod by dragging files over to it.I have now spent a week trying different things from google searches etc. This has left me with a system that now mounts the ipod but doesn't display it in banshee or rhythmbox I was mostly aiming to get this working ..

How do you calculate the number of usable bytes on a disk partition? When I do an fdisk -l I get this:
Disk /dev/md0: 192.0 GB, 192069500928 bytes
2 heads, 4 sectors/track, 46891968 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 8 * 512 = 4096 bytes

I downloaded some application for Linux (program microcontroller LPCXpresso). When I trying to install it some error appears
Code:
Can't find a usable init.tcl in the following directories:
/installkitvfs/lib/tcl /installkitvfs/lib/tcl8.6 /home/damon/src/installkit-1.3.0/out/lib/tcl8.6 /media/lib/tcl8.6 /lib/tcl8.6 /media/library /library /tcl8.6b1.2/library /tcl8.6b1.2/library
This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly.I think Tcl is installed, maybe I need to reinstall it if so, how? What I need to do?
