I'm not able to find a thread that matches my problem. It must be a software/hardware bug, because sound works normally on a 2nd computer running the same Debian version (lenny), and it also work on the 1st computer running Debian (squeeze). - In fact the sound was working on the 1st computer in one installation of Debian lenny, but not on a 2nd (same) installation on the same computer. - Given that I had fiddled with its settings (for a different reason), and couln't fix it, I decided that the software had now a bug, deleted everything on the partition and cloned the working Linux on it. It had the same problem, so old me thougth that I had a virus in the MBR and wrote zeros all over the H/D; I then checked that the MBR (512 bytes) consisted just of zeros, and reinstalled vista, Debian lenny and Debian squeeze on the totally clean drive. The problem is still there also on a 2nd lenny installation that I tried, but squeeze works well. It's possible that the lenny installation that was previously working, was doing so due to the magic of Debian-update, but I don't know. The guilty computer is a Compaq SR5760AN (mobo pegatron violet M2N78-LA) with nVidia 0774 chipset and realtek HDA integrated audio. If it's relevant, the DVD drive is HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GH15L, video is Radeon HD3450, and CPU is AMD Phenom 9650 quad core.If I use alsaconf, it comes up with 'snd-hda-intel' but there seem not to be any intel chip on the machine, and squeeze works and lenny DID also work.
I've got a setup where I need to use 'find' to find 0 or more files in a certain directory, however, 'find' always produces an error when there are no files that match a certain check. Is it possible to run 'find' while having it omit errors when no files match the pattern?
I am new to thread programming. I need to generate one thread in one process using posix thread. Which scheduling and priority do i need to use? I want to generate the thread with the lowest priority. As i know there are 3 scheduling policy available SCHED_FIFO, SCHED_RR or SCHED_OTHAR.
I know what the URL of a webpage is and how to find it, but can't figure out how to do it with the screenshot accessory in Ubuntu 9.10. It is easy to use the tool to capture the image of a desktop, but won't let me do anything with the URL to insert it into anywhere!
I am going to use "pthread_setaffinity_np" to bind a thread to a specific core. My application has two threads. I have used mutex to assign a specific id to each thread and then bind that thread to a core different from another core. but it seems that the os assigns both thread to one core.What should I do to bind each thread to a specific core?
My SSH client for remote machine will sometimes hang. I have to wait until the session is finished hanging, I guess, to login with SSH again. I would get some message about multiple users or something.
I haven't been able to login this time for over 1 day. It's started saying something about Tcl_InitNotifier: unable to start notifier thread. My host can access the machine locally to fix this, but what is going on? Why is this occurring?
The machine boots, graphics come up, login window shows up, but after login there is only the background window (and mouse). My .xsession looks like this:
I cannot install Kubuntu (or Unbuntu) 10.4 on my husband's computer. I have spent 5 hours on this and cannot get anywhere. I am deeply frustrated. The iso I burned to CD is good (works on 2 other computers). His computer will not boot from USB, no matter what I do to the drive order in BIOS. After loading the blue screen with the Kubuntu logo on it (and the blue-white dots), the screen changes to black and shows the following text:
BusyBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu11) built-in shell (ash) (initrafs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system.
He really needs to get rid of WinXP. Kubuntu is what I have on my computer (and love it!). Here is some info about his computer:
OS Name Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600 OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation
using fedora 12. I got a problem while trying to login both as root and general user.message was " password could not mathes"then I tried to change the root password by booting as runlevel 1 and it worked f9 and I could able to login,but now suddenly the same problem arises again,. the solution worked for 1 day.I am sure tha am giving the correct password, so I thik there is some other problem.
I've made a bootable USB with 10.3 live CD. I can boot successfully using a 10.3 live CD as long as the USB stick is not plugged in, but if I try to boot from the USB stick, or from the CD when the USB stick is plugged in, I get "No devices matches MBR identifier: !" where the bit after the colon is 2 spaces followed by the exclamation mark. I've seen this message reported elsewhere but never with a blank for the MBR id.I'm running on a Dell Insprion 9100 with 1.5G RAM.
My Host OS is XP and I am running Ubuntu on Virtualbox. Trred a readwrite and graphic method to mount NTFS but no matches, permission denied. It's not possible to mount NTFS using Ubuntu on Virtual box?
I'm attempting to use REGEX to isolate media (video and audio) essence that relate to alias/reference Quicktime movies. The Quicktime movie filename (excluding ".mov" can always be found in the media-essence filename.Stages of my process are:I cache the contents of a text file into an array ($file). This text file/array contains a list of Quicktime movies and media essence. Essence for each Quicktime movie is contained in this text file. An example text file is below:
I have an interesting problem, sed '/pattern/{n;p;}' file, doesn't seem to be catching all of the matches in my file. As an example of this see below.test:
I'm trying to create a program that will go through a list (one word at each line) from the file pwdlst.txt and try to log-in with the passwords entered in the file. When the program tries with a password that matches the current one, the program will stop and print out "The password is: %s" % password. This is what I created so far:
get the error and print when the log-in attempt is deniedgo through the list (pwdlst.txt) and try each password one at a timestop the program when the password matches
After having recompiled libmixmod and then recompiled SDL_Mixer to get support for certain music formats I now find myself unable to start a lot of SDL programs that were previously working perfectly fine -- even some programs that do not use any sound functionality at all will not work.I get the following error when I attempt to execute my project which was previously working fine:"XDM authorization key matches an existing client!Error: Unable to init SDL: Couldn't open X11 display"I also get the same error when I try to execute a lot of other programs, many of them not my own. It seems that the error is not caused by using SDL_Mixer either, as some pure graphics demos without any audio functionality also give me this message, and when I removed all audio features from my program to try to isolate the issue it still gave that error upon execution
When I do a yum or an initial load of vsftpd, I get binary that works. I got the source file "vsftpd-2.0.5-12.el5_3.1.src.rpm" from [URL] to make a change to add chown_upload_mode to version 2.0.5
With no changes to the source, the program works but does not respond to the service command properly. See [URL]
How do I get the source of vsftpd that matches the binary distribution?
But I want it to return just "0m1.001s", the portion is the group. I can just apply egrep to whatever the first command returns but is there an easier way to do it?
I have been using comm to compare two simple column lists, and suppress items that were contained in the second list (suppression list). This was extremely simple and basic, however now list1 has two columns, and I must compare the second column in list1 with my suppression list.
Basically I need to compare my user list and suppression list to suppress any users that exist in the suppression list, then remove the second column (md5).I wasn't sure the fastest way to make comparisons if there was a similar command like comm, or if I needed to create an array of users and see if any of them matched the suppression list one by one. This seemed like it would be pretty process intensive. Anyone have any less cumbersome ideas?
This seems like a relatively simple question, but I haven't been able to figure it out from the documentation after a couple of hours of searching. I'm running postfix on my mail server, and the vast majority of my spam has the sender address spoofed to match the recipient address. I've got spamassassin up and running, and very little gets through that, so it's not a serious problem, but if possible I would like to be able to reject the mail before it arrives to reduce the system load.
Mail is sent locally via webmail, relaying is denied, so the only way that mail should be sent from the domain is via a connection from localhost. The basic idea I'm thinking of is if the MAIL FROM sender claims to be an address at the receiving domain, but is connected from a remote IP, the mail should be rejected.
in the LQ Forums i am experiencing a few connection issues under Slackware 13.1 and came here after lots of searching, and unsuccessful fixes so here it is.
- Problem: I can't join multiplayer matches in various games (Running natively in Linux) some of these are: Open Arena, Urban Terror, Cube 2: Sauerbraten, Quake Live and Planeshift.
- What i did: I tried joining multiplayer matches in these (and a few other) games without success, i get the server list, it says it is connecting and in most of these i get the message: Awaiting Gamestate (except for Planeshift which just fails and Cube 2 that doesn't show anything). Didn't find a fix in the internet and tried some possible ones without success. I even tried forwarding ports on my router/modem, turning on and off UPnP, setting up a firewall and nothing.
- Exceptions: I tried one of these games in my Windows XP 32-bit boot and the same game (Urban Terror) worked, same version number (but the native Windows version) and i could play without lag and any other issue. Cube 2: Sauerbraten manages to connect and lets me play (under Slack) but only on some servers maybe a port or authentication problem i guess. As said the only message is Awaiting Gamestate in every game except for Cube 2 that doesn't show anything and just doesn't connects and Planeshift that says it wasn't able to reach the server. This Slackware install is pretty fresh i installed it day 1 of January 2011 with the additional packages during the installation and the only firewall which i set up today was a IPTABLES one generated here but the issues are present since the day i installed Slack (but only in it) the problem persists with and without the firewall.
As far as i remember i didn't have these issues when i installed Ubuntu so i guess it's a configuration that's lacking. I am connected to the internet through a router (with wireless enabled for my notebook) with a cable (eth0), DHCP, Dynamic IP. - Notes: I installed the PCMCIA thing during the installation and i CAN use the internet (browsing, pidgin, e-mail, .....) normally. Sorry if i wrote too much i tried to give as much information as possible and sorry for any grammar errors, English is not my first language.
I am certain that the problem is not with the CD. It can boot on my laptop. It's the RC2 of OpenSuse 11.3 Gnome. When I try to boot on my PC, I get the error "No devices matches MBR identifier: 0x502eadc3".I had some problems when installing Ubuntu, with HDD partitioning because it's SATA3. I tried several things, chandged from IDE to ACHI in Bios, then after it didn't work I simply plugged out all of the Sata cables but still the same. It should be because of Bios settings I guess.I have Gigabyte X58A-UD3R mainboard. Please help, I really love OpenSuse
This morning when I opened Evolution, It asked me for a password. It didn't like my login pass. It wanted an old password I used to use. When I click on Evolution I get Enter password to unlock your login keyring The password you use to log in to your computer no longer matches that of your login keyring.
I am trying to create a shell script, on taking a input file as parameter, which need to do 3 things
1) create a copy of existing file.
2) add a new line to the copied file.
3) strip off all the absolute paths inside the copied file
The first 2 points are straight forward. but i am finding it difficult to acheive the 3rd point. myself not very good with awk and sed. but gave it a shot in vain. For example, the input script consists of below,
I have a lenovo x200 laptop running Fedora 14, fully up to date with the Fedora repository. Seemingly out of nowhere, some websites will no longer load. First it happened to www.facebook.com, next (after a day or so) wikipedia.org, now the Fedora forum. Other Internet access seems fine, but when I try to go to these pages I just get "unable to find host" errors. Its totally bizarre. It first happened in an airport so I thought it was just a strange network there, but now it happens at home. I can't get on these sites in firefox or elinks browsers (in a terminal) BUT I can ping both sites no problem. Also, the other computers in this house have no problem visiting these sites.
I have two things going on with my computer where I'm getting (error?) messages.
One is:
"The password you use to log in to your computer no longer matches that of your log in keyring."
This is in a window that pops up on my desktop after I log in and I have to enter my old password to get in the rest of the way.
I found this: url link and followed the path given in post #2. There, in the list, I find an entry named "uname@host" which shows my new/ changed host name. When I double click it and expand the "password" section at the bottom of the window I find that the password is indeed my new password, not the old one (you can tick box to "show password").
The other is, and I think this is connected:
When I use sudo in the terminal I get: "unable to resolve host"
I went to:
Code: cd /etc; less hosts and in the second line what I see is the old host name and not the new. I think that if I can correct this second thing, both will be resolved?? Or is that file even relevant to the situation??
If that is true, I want to make sure I go about it in the right way and not end up locking myself out of my own computer or something stupid like that.
