Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS: It appears that run-parts does not run scripts with a period in the name. I had a script upg.sh which run-parts did not recognise; when I changed it to upg it did. This is surely a bug!
View 3 RepliesI'm not sure if this belongs in the Server or Networking section of the forums. Anyway, last month I upgraded my server to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Since then, I've had a recurring problem wherein after a certain period of time, the server stops accepting network connections. Ubuntu 10 will continue to reject network connections until someone logs into the server locally, after which time network connectivity is restored and the cycle begins anew. Essentially, the server goes into a "half sleep mode". I say half because the computer is still on and the fans are running.
I've done some searching around various forms and initially figured this issue was related to problems with the Network Manager service (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lu...er/+bug/524454), so I removed the service altogether. However, this problem is still occurring.
I've poured over /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog, but have noticed no irregular behavior. Has anyone else experienced this issues? I'd rather not resort to downgrading back to Gusty Gibbon if I can help it.
I am happy to provide more information if its needed
I have a file like this code...
I would like to use sed or similar to remove everything before the period, but only for the lines 1 and 3 (or lines with a-z.a-z and not a-z = 0-9.0-9.0-9.0-9)
I found a way to do this using:
cat $file | sed 's/[.].*//'
But this 1)remove all the text AFTER the period and not before it, and 2) removes everything after the first decimal of the IP address.
I've been trying to figure out a strange DHCP problem my girlfriend's having: She can only get (or renew) a DHCP lease once; Subsequent tries timeout. I tried switching from network-manager (which uses dhclient) to wicd (dhcpcd), and noticed a key difference: With wicd, restarting helps (again, works once, then another restart is required). With network-manager, I haven't been able to get another lease, period.
Exploring the dhcpcd case further, I found that suspend/hibernate do not correct the issue; a full restart is required. Neither does `/etc/init.d/wicd restart` help. I don't remember if I tried killing dhcpcd; I'll have to test that. The current workaround is to restart the computer after each disconnect. It's pretty annoying, though, so I'd like to try to collect enough specifics to file accurate bug reports for each dhcpcd and dhclient. Is anyone familiar with these projects? Are these known issues? Any ideas how to hone in a bit? My gut tells me there's some state somewhere that needs to get flushed.
I installed ubuntu 10.0.4 TLS version and my desktop freezes after a period of inactive time: the screen doesn't change and the apps do not response. It will resume after any key-stroke or mouse action. Is it a feature of 'power-saving' or something else? I need my ubuntu keep 'alive' all the time.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a very dumb questions regarding run-parts utility. I've created few shell scripts, chmod them to be executable, placed them into one particular directory and tried to run them using run-parts utility like this
run-parts dir_name However it doesn't seem to be working or I might just be missing out something. I have even tried different options like --test or --list - NONE of them produced any output. If I run each of the script manually they all work just fine. Is this is a known bug or somethng ?? or am I really missing out something...how are the /etc/crontab entries then being executed when the run-parts doesn't seem to be working on such a simple case ? ps: I noticed one interesting thing though...when I run run-parts like this: run-parts --list --regex 'some_regexp_patern' dir_name -> the output actually produces a list of the files whose file names match the given regexp pattern .
How do I cut jpg images in two parts?

Please help me to resolve th problem stated underneath:My computer(P4, 512MB RAM) running Ubuntu 10.04 hangs unexpectedly after certain period of inactivity (4-5 minutes maybe). I checked power management settings and all power saving options are set to off.The screen says Checking battery state comes for a while... and then black screen with stripes comes. Monitor also goes off for say a sec or two.Then monitor goes 'on' on its own .This process of Black screen with stripes, monitor off and on goes on until I "Reboot"

1 abc
2 def
3 ghi

Now I want to copy(yank) only the parts:
ab from line one and hi from line three at the same time
So how can this be done with vim? I know how to copy one line and one part of a line. What I want to do is to copy two parts from 2 different lines at the same time and paste them as they are some where else in the file.
I am completely new to Ubuntu so please make your answers really simple ! I want to set up a mail server for a home network and have been suggested I use the Ubuntu solutions. I am fairly proficient with Windows programs and even construct databases but I am a complete novice when it comes to command line instructions. Yes, I know I have been spoon fed!
I have been told that it is possible to install Server programs from the Desktop version and that they provide a GUI in most cases. Is that so? I have the desktop version running and up to date but I am unsure what to do next. Starting the Server ISO CD from Desktop seemed logical but when I did I was not sure if it was correct and backed out. I have also read a thread on this forum that suggests the use of Zimbra as a Mail Server, it sounded like my kind of solution so I think I would like to try that.
One last factor. I have an existing P2P network (2 Vista, 1 Mac Book and this Ub' desktop/server) running already which uses the Router for DNS. I suspect I am going to have to do things in a certain order if I am not going to go backwards and ruin the families email and surfing!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI installed linux 2010 mandriva on a (embeded) system,and i run several server programs on it that accept connections from clients. clients are connected to server(s) and every things is ok, but when i go to home and back to my work tomorrow, i see no data can be sent to server programs and this problem exists until i restart the server programs or reconnect tcp client programs. this problem occurs even when both client and server programs executed on the same (embeded) system.why this happens? i checked by netstat and see that server ports exists in the list(and not closed by kernel) but it seems kernel or an application above it prohibit data transmission.i changed the OS and installed ubuntu but the problem exists.

I skipped over Jaunty on my main desktop because Intrepid had been working perfectly for so long. Finally took the plunge to Karmic, and have had major instability problems. I cannot trace them to any particular program I am using. At first it seemed related to power management, since it would lock up every time it had a period of extended inactivity. I have disabled ACPI in my BIOS (I think), and any power management settings I could find in gnome to try to troubleshoot. That seems to have helped, but it still happens semi-regularly, sometimes when I am in the middle of using it. I have tried checking logs and googled anything that seemed important. ie a message in kern.log reads: Clocksource tsc unstable

Without a long tale; suffice it to say I had to do a clean install when I upgraded to 10.10 version. I have messed up evolution e-mail and my document viewer settings. I have what I need as far as by ISP settings but the Evolution folders; well that is messed up. What I am looking for if it is out there would be links {read directions to} tutorials for Evolution and Gnome. Everything comes into the unmatched folder on evolution so I think I need to find where to read up on 'Folder rules and permissions'. The document view just is not working so I know I need to read up on that; I think it is part of Gnome but I'm not positive.

This make sense to me as there is no point in wasting battery life if i can hibernate, but I don't want to hibernate all the time, just suspend for a period of time, like 2 hours, in case I need my netbook again i have quick access to it.
