I really like that in Ubuntu when you type in a command that's not on the system you get a message saying the package that provides that command. Unfortunately it also slows down my system, so I would like a way to trigger this manually. Something like search-command command-I-dont-have
Is there any way to do this? I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 under andLinux but would also like to use this on a regular Ubuntu 9.04 install.
after i update the input method, the input method could not be trigger

When the computer is locked. I can smiply go to switch users. when the list of users logins are shown all i have to do is click on my user name and it allows me into my account without typing in a password.

I am building an android, from the source using make command. I want to achieve simple logging while this make is happening.
Aim:
I want to look/log for internal system calls that are being made after i do 'make' command in bash terminal. So that after the make is done, i can look and study the internal method/file calls made while make was happening. In this way i will come to know how the actual building process works.
I would like to keep this simple and if possible use a piped command as opposed to an all out complex method.I have a script that does many things for me, and one of them builds a basic simple system report (I know about lshw, but this is for me to learn as well as be functional)
I would like to add another pipe to remove the"model name:" portion.I do not really want to use the store in a variable first solutions if I can help it.

I installed all that I was asked to install. However, when I was installing libcss, it said that "Package libparserutils was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing 'libparserutils.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable". I have already installed libparsercutils but not in the /usr/lib dir.
What should I do to continue my installation? And anyone could tell me what are those lib stuff? I installed zlib with the apt-get install command.Can I get other lib stuff with the same command?
I'm trying to backup my old PC games so that I can finally banish their CDs to the attic once and for all. I've just been using the DD command to grab iso's of my games so far, while keeping their keys in a text file (see the DD command below). However, I just hit my C&C collection and I'm having some problems with some of the newer games like Renegade and Yuri's Revenge. I think they must be copy protected or something. 4 of my last discs have stopped copying at exactly 1.7MB (3 seperate DVD drives, 2 IDE, 1 USB enclosed). Can you guys think of anything else that will cause DD to fail at this location? Any ideas? I'd prefer it to be a command line option, as I'm trying to make things go as quickly as possible. Here's the command I've been using. code...

View 5 Replies View RelatedI want to pipe the output of a command into grep as the search TERM, rather than the text to be searched, like this for example
Code:
cat /var/log/auth.log | grep date "&b &d"
so that I only see the lines in auth.log for the current day...but obviously that line doesn't work.... is there a way to do this with grep, or even another command?
Every time I need to find a file and then open it, I have to use :
find ./ -name **.properties. , then copy the result, and then vi "paste the result here" .
If I need to use a mouse, it can be a little trouble. So is there any better way to do this?
This is a bit of a long shot and I think the answer will be no but I thought I'd ask just in case. I have a number of tutorials in html but I want to be able to search for particular information in these files and display that information in the terminal rather than having to go through a browser. Apart from using grep which gives a pretty messy display or having to write a a specially Bash or python script, is there any command line tools that can provide such a function?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI was not in touch with linux for couple of years now. So I forgot a command I used to use. I recently installed Fedora 12 and I can not remember what was that command.Here is what it used to do: I remember that I used to run a special search command on server that used to find a file very fast because it was kind a database based command. To enable it for first time after linux installation, I used to build an index of computer's files and then I could use its command [don't remember if it was "find" or "search"].
So my question if anybody know what I am talking about and what is name of these two commands. How can I build the index first.
Any solution using awk/sed/regexp or other standard linux utility (this is for a mix of RH versions)? I am dealing with some very large application log files. I want to see everything that has been written to the log since the last application restart.
For an example take a log file like this:
Code:
# cat test.log
1 msg
2 msg
3 restart 1
4 msg
5 restart 2
6 msg
The following command is close to what I want:
Code:
# awk '/restart/,G' test.log
3 restart 1
4 msg
5 restart 2
6 msg
But the awk command grabs the first restart not the last. If it was working the way I wanted I would see something like this:
Code:
# awk '/restart/,G' test.log
5 restart 2
6 msg
So, I need something in that search pattern that says look for the last occurrence. I know how to do this with a pipe line - I could reverse the file and then do a similar awk and reverse back, or I could find the number associated with the last restart and then use that in the awk search. But these just take too long because the file is too big.
I'm writing a script that edits a Maya ascii file. Inside the .MA(maya ascii file) there is a line defaultRenderGlobals. My script is supposed to find this line and according to what options they manipulate will update the lines below defaultRenderGlobals. I've got that working... but... the issue i'm having is that defaultRenderGlobals is only made when a the maya scene is made into a batch render. I want my script to manually addefaultRenderGlobals line into the .ma file if its not there and add the certain lines below it.RenderGlobals is already there I want to just manipulate whats below it. Hope this makes sense
