I've got rkhunter installed and regularly do scans immediately before & after updates & if I get warnings about 'file property updates' after the update I use 'rkhunter --propupd' to give me a clean run.I'm about to setup a ubuntu computer for my nan, I want to enable automatic security updates so she doesn't have to do anything to keep her system secure. I was planning on running rkhunter when I go to her house (about once a month) and check the dates in the resulting rkhunter.log warnings with those in the var/log/apt/history.log to see if legitimate updates caused any rkhunter warnings. I've noticed though that the 'Current file modifiation time:' in the rkhunter.log warnings are incorrect.
My system seems to be about 15 days behind the actual date, I've now run rkhunter --propupd so I have no warnings but got this one off another forum post to show what I mean:
Current file modification time: 1283341157 (01-Sep-2010 06:39:17)
I believe that the '1283341157' is the time in some strange format and the date in brackets is what rkhunter thinks it might be in human format.
1) How to interpret the 'strange date format' (1283341157 in the line above)?
2) If there's a way of configuring the date in rkhunter so that they're correct in rkhunter.log?
3) If there's a better way of keeping her system up-to-date & secure, it's her first computer & she's 86 so I think setting up automatic security updates is the way to go, it'll be one less thing to overwhelm her!
Ah, this time you've really screwed it up without covering you traces: F14 does not interpret correctly my (possibly botched up) ACPI tables and HANGS!!! With acpi=off I have to press the power button to switch my desktop off and that is really ANNOYING. Surely the Fedora engineers could have done a better job with this one.

I am using Linux as my OS and using TOP command to measure the system performance. From the readings using the TOP, I have observed the following
(1) The used memory increase significantly from 7% to 99% over sometimes? Is there a sign of memory leak? Does OS play a part in used memory? Will system performance be affected? Will system crash due to 99% used memory?
(2) What is the difference between Memory Buffers and Cached?
(3) From the readings, it was observed that Buffers readings decrease, whereas Cached readings increase over time.
(5) Should TOP be used to take readings for system performance (memory & CPU usage)? What is the recommended method to take readings?
Whereas, my applications only consume a bit of memory and CPU.
I recently bought a Lexmark Interpret S405 printer, and the box says that it's compatible with ubuntu. I downloaded the lexmark-inkjet-09-driver-1.0-1.i386.rpm.sh, which begins installation but gives the error message The installer package is not supported by your native packaging system. The installer will exit. I also downloaded the Linux_S305_E.sh, which doesn't even begin installation. PLEASE HELP, I have two brand new Lexmark printers, (the other being an X5630) and they both refuse to install or i just have no idea how to install them.

I access a linux server shell via putty, but many of the keys I use do not translate across, up, down, left and right all are seen as ^[[A, ^[[B, ^[[D and ^[[C; But so is C-up, C-down, C-left and C-right. And enter is seen as C-j (which move down to the next line), and backspace is seen as C-h, which is backwards delete.
How can I stop these keys being translated into other keys (so I can, for example, configure C-h and backspace to perform two different functions) and what's doing this translation (Putty, the kernel, the shell)?
I just ran the port scanner from the Network Tools utility a few times within a few minutes (see screenshots). How can there be different ports open each time?

I have something like this:export VAR=`command`The problem is that "command" can return this: "** NONE **". bash will then replace each of the * by the list of files in the current directory.I want the output to be uninterpreted (i.e. VAR should contain "** NONE **", not "list of files list of files NONE list of files list of files").

All 5 groups show the same. My first question is why would CPU0 be the only one with intr/s and the others do not? Info.The OS is RHEL 5.4 running as a VM on ESXi 4.1. Memory doesn't appear to be an issue, the system has 8 GB and its only using about 1.5 GB. Second question, I'm positive the process that is the problem is the tomcat process. Does anyone know a good way to see whats happening with a specific process?
GNU assembler 2.17 And without having to prefix them. I'm skimming through as info page and can't find any pseudo operator or assembler directive of this type. E.g. 74 would be a decimal number. But I want it to be hexa 74 without the need to write 0x74.
NOTE: as is the GNU assembler.
EDIT: Google led me to discover this:
Quote:
If you write numbers without an explicit indication of the base, the most recent `.RADIX S' command determines how they are interpreted. However, on the one hand, it says the most recent and, on the other one, it applies to GASP, the GNU assembler preprocessor. IDK if it is the same as as (the GNU assembler).
To reeanable CTRL-ALT-BKSP (since 11.2), you use:
setxkbmap -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp
It works. However if you map keys with xmodmap, it's gone. In whatever order you use them, setxkbmap and xmodmap are always conflicting. Running xmodmap immediately disables CTRL-ALT-BKSP, while running setxbbmap reverses key mappings to their default.

I want to install dark themes such as Cobra and Aero-ion but they conflict with Firefox, and I don't want to use Chromium. Do I have to stick with basic and default themes if I want to customize or switch to Google Chromium? Can someone point out a website that, well, has ones compatible with Firefox 4?

View 4 Replies View RelatedThis happens under slackware 13.1 32 bit and 64 bit. If scim-bridge is running, firefox will freeze the whole XWindows, especially when a pop-up window appears within firefox. Replacing scim with fcitx (Chinese only) input method solveed this problem. This annoyed me for quite a period even when I was using slackware-current because I did not know what caused firefox to behave strangely. Why no one reported this problem? I think no one uses scim and firefox at the same time here.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI created an rpm that attempts to install the file /etc/rsyslog.conf (which on my system is already installed and owned by the rsyslog package). When I install this through rpm, I get the appropriate error. However, when I install the rpm through zypper, I get no complaints, and in the end two packages end up owning the file.
Is this the expected behavior? Does zypper force install rpms despite errors? I looked through all the config files, but couldn't find any setting dealing with this case. Is this something that is controlled by a config somewhere? I'm running openSUSE 11.2-0

I ve got Eeebuntu 3.0 installed on one partition, and Fedora 12 installed on another, sharing the same /home partition, and within that, I have them sharing the same user folder. It complicates matters as Eeebuntu (with it's Ubuntu 9.04 base) still has Firefox 3.0.16, and Fedora has 3.5.6 (Adblock no longer works in Eeebuntu, I stupidly upgraded it in Fedora). I want to keep the same partition layout, but resolve these conflicts. Is there any way I can change the /home folder for Fedora, or Eeebuntu so that each one has different settings, but still be on the same /home partition?
View 3 Replies View RelatedUntil some time ago I had a dual Windows 7 and Fedora operating system, then I completely moved to Fedora. Recently I have become interested in Scientific Linux and wanted to install it besides my Fedora. I took a back up of all my data and formatted my HDD for a clean install of both of them. This is what I did:
First I installed Scientific Linux with these partitions (contents of /etc/fstab):
[Code]...
Then I went on to install Fedora 15; I kept the same primary and extended partitions but only changed the names of "/FedoraRoot" to "/" and "/" to "/SLRoot" in the above list while installing Fedora. I also chose the boot directory of Fedora to be /dev/sda1/ which I wanted to be the /boot file for both systems while I had chosen the boot file for Scientific Linux to be "/dev/sda".
Everything went well until the final step of copying the files an error came that some of files that Fedora wanted to install in /usr/share, /usr/lib64, /usr/bin, /etc/system..., /etc/issue..., /etc/redhat-release... and /etc/rpm are already present in the Scientific Linux format and so there is a conflict and it has to terminate!!! I must have made some strange mistakes in the definitions

There isn't any problems with the while statement/ the functions in while, but when I try and compile main.c I get the following errors:
