I have a script I only want to run when a window is being dragged around. Is there an environmental variable or something that will tell me whether one is moving and which one it is? I'm using Ubuntu Lucid if it matters.

There is one that I never seen before but I admit it is very useful: the auto resize window feature. I use the 11.3 (KDE) (milestone 4) version. Just wanted to ask if this is a package for ths or is hard-coded into the system? And is it KDE-specific?

The recovery was supposed to have run sudo dpkg --configure -a. That does not appear to have happened.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have two NIC cards installed, they both go to seperate networks. Occassionally I am not able to establish a connection via eth1. When looking at tcpdump traces I see that Linux is using eth0 hardware port and putting eth1's IP address in the packet to reply to the connection request. When the connections work its when Linux uses eth1's port.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have and embedded system which apparently, due to space considerations, is missing lots of normal commands. I can get the following information by "cat /proc/version":
Linux version 2.4.19-uc0 (...) (gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)(ColdFire patches - 20010318 from http://fiddes.net/coldfire/)(-msep-data patches)) #461 Tue May 24 12:06:06 PDT 2011
At issue is the fact that, after some time, the system stops responding to the Network (e.g., you can ping it, then some time later you can't). We suspect that some sort of network monitor is accessing the device and causing the trouble, but don't know for sure.
What I would like to do is log some sort of useful network status information and/or be able to reset the network if I can figure out there is an issue from within the device.
I thought I had it all working using "/etc/init.d/network restart" but I've come to find out that the command is not recognised in this system. I also can't issue a "top" command to see what services are running. I can Telnet in, so I can try commands and see if they work.
Have any of you worked with such an abbr. system and if so, what might be around that I'm unaware of to help determine network status?
This questions pertains mainly to building a brand new GNU toolchain on one machine for deployment on fs of another machine that has no toolchain installed. I understand the machine on which GNU toolchain is going to be built as the 'build' machine. I understand the machine on which GNU toolchain is going to be deployed as the 'host' machine. I understand the machine on which the code generated by the new GNU toolchain is going to be run as the 'target' machine.
Q1.) Is there a fixed 'rule', 'matrix' or 'table' somewhere which tells me exactly which versions of 'binutils' and 'libc' are required by a particular version of GCC? I.e. something along the lines of:
- gcc ver.'k' can be built using gcc ver.'m'(or later) with binutils ver.'i' and libc ver. 'j'
- gcc ver.'k' will operate with binutils ver.'t' and libc ver.'r'(or later)
Is there some 'rule of thumb' / 'heuristics' giving me the above version requirements for the building and operating GCC, or is this information somehow implied or derived systematically. Where can I find more about the above?
Q2) I assume that the libraries have no dependencies on any underlying software other than the system calls provided by the kernel. Furthermore it appears that the libraries are not too sensitive about the kernel version they run on (I found this out from experience). Therefore I could build the libraries on some build machine and place them on the bare naked newly set up host file system without regard to any other prerequisite SW components?
Q3) During operation, do GCC and its various components place system calls directly to the kernel or via library calls (or both)? In other words I am trying to understand conceptually if GCC requires 'Glibc' for its own operation or not?
Q4) During operation, do the 'binutils' components place system calls directly to the kernel or via library calls (or both)? In other words I am trying to understand conceptually if the 'binutils' require 'Glibc' for their operation or not? ( Of course it is clear to me that when GCC is operating it will need libraries and headers to resolve object references in the target code it produces, but that would be a >different< question).
I am trying to scroll text from a text file across a wx.panel. This is the code so far:
Code:
def scrolling(self, text, rate):
def scroll(): charList = []
dc = wx.ClientDC(self.panel_1)
open_text = open(text, "rb")
my_text = open_text.read()
charList.append(my_text) open_text.close()
x,y = self.panel_1.GetClientSizeTuple()
while 1: for z in charList: for r in range(2000):
dc.DrawText(z,x-r,0) time.sleep(rate) dc.Clear()
net3 = threading.Thread(target=scroll)
net3.setDaemon(1) net3.start()
It scrolls but I am guessing where the range is (2000). I need to be able to determine the total number of pixels that the text in the file is. Is there a python way to determine this?
I have been running into network issues lately with my CentOS 5 (installed on AMD Athlon X2 - 64 bit machine about 2 years ago). It was able to connect to the network fine until yesterday when I installed more memory into the machine restarted it.
Upon restart, the boot up was paused at 'Determining IP information for eth0' step for a while and booted with out connecting to the network. I tried restarting the network (/sbin/service network restart), but this is the error message I continuously get: Determining IP information for eth0...PING xxx.1.226.1 (xxx.1.226.1) from xxx.1.226.83 eth0: 56(84) bytes of data

I've seen this pop up a few times on the forum but my setup is slightly different. I have a PC with an ASUS P5N32-SLI Premium motherboard. I've just installed CentOS 5.1. Yes, I know this is ancient, but this is what they're developing on at work. I'm trying to get connected either via ethernet or wireless and neither one works. When I boot the computer to Window XP it does connect on ethernet. Ethernet should be easy so I'm concentrating on that. But I get "Determining IP information for eth0... failed." after a 'service network start'.Here is some other information that was asked on similar threads:

View 3 Replies View Relatedubuntu 10.04 Easy Peasy eeepc 900I have messed up my home directory and can not get out of the messI wanted to move the /home to be on the 16gb partition instead of the default which was on the 4gb with the installation. I copied/saved /home to a temporary directory and then moved the contents of /home to the 16gb disk and mounted it on /home At this stage all seemed to be working correctly and applications worked as before. However when I rebooted it can not find my home directory, complains a lot, and if you bypass the messages ends up with a minimal GUI screen which does not respond to anything I tried. It seems that the 16gb disk is not being mounted.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running Ubuntu 9.10 AMD64 with KVM and several VMs running the same OS. Everything was running fine and the VMs were using the host's network via bridging. The decision was made to move the server to completely different network. I shut it down, the system was moved and hooked up, and I got it up on the new network pretty easily--just modified /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf. No networking problems at all.
Then I fired up virt-manager, powered up one of the VMs, and made the same kinds of changes. It's not talking beyond the VM server. I can ping the host, but can't ping the gateway. "tcpdump -i eth0" shows plenty of traffic.
