Where is the universal PATH variable set/exported in Karmic?It is not exported from the normal place (/etc/profile). I can't find where it is set. I tried Code:find /etc/* | xargs grep "export PATH=" and it did not reveal the magic place.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to change my PATH environment variable to no avail. I am using Jessie i386 with MATE. Using my .bashrc file works but not well because with subshells the modifications get repeated. I want the change to occur on login.
I tried modifying ~/.profile ~/.bash_profile /etc/profile and /etc/environment and one or two others but in no case did my change get picked up even after logging out and in again and even after rebooting. I searched the Internet and found each of the above places to make the change but they don't seem to work with Jessie.
Where do I make the necessary change?

I would like to know if there is a fairly easy "How To" for setting up my home network. I have 2 XP SP3 computers and 2 Linux with ver. 9.10. The XP boxes can see each other and share files and folders. I can see from an XP box one of the Ubuntu machines, but can't access any of the files or folders.
I get the following when I try: \Lstoragemusic is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The network path was not found.
I installed "jdk1.6.0.bin" and "jre1.6.0.bin" successfully. But I don't know where they are installed. I can't find anywhere. What is the default path they are installed.I want to set JAVA_HOME.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been looking around the net for executing a shell script. My basic understanding is that after setting executable permissions and providing a path (#!/bin/sh) in the first line of the script, I can type ./myscript to execute instead of sh myscript. This is not working for me. I can run "sh myscript" but not "./myscript" even though I know for sure I have across the board execute permission and my sh path is correct. I'm working on a redhat linux station.

I recently downloaded the Universal USB Installer v1.1 and put Ubuntu on the flash drive.I put it into my laptop, and had it set to boot from flash drive, and it didn't do anything. Is it supposed to just auto run from the flash drive and format my hard drive and put Ubuntu on it?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a 500 GB external hard drive that is screwed up and wont let me copy any files to it on Ubuntu, I plugged it into my dads iMac and it works perfect so clearly this is just an OS 10 thing.I bought a 320 GB external a few days ago to back up the 270GB of files on the 500 GB so I can format it to a Universal format that will work fine on Ubuntu, OSX, and Windows.
The problem I had was Ubuntu telling me I don't have permission to change anything even in terminal with the chown and chmod commands, nothing worked so I have everything backed up onto the 320 GB right now and I would just like to know what format I can put the 500 GB to that will work in all three operating systems.
can anyone help me achieve universal transparency for the panel??

Now we want to use this hard disk in more than one systems with different usernames. So we did "chmod -R 777 /media/ VolumeLabel" in all the systems.But we want the hd to pass around. So its a little bit inconvenient to do chmod all the time. So what should we do to make the access for the hd universal in all the systems that we plug it in?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI know this is not strictly a Ubuntu question, but I was unsure where to ask this question and since it is about installing Ubuntu Server, I put this question here.
I have used the Universal USB installer to create an install USB device, but I also need to be able to boot to a DOS prompt so I can update the bios if I need to. I would like to have just a single USB drive rather than having to carry two of them around.
Has anybody used the Universal USB installer and is there a way to modify the resulting USB installer so that I could say add a menu program such as grub or something else that would allow me to either access the installer or go to a DOS prompt? Kind of like the way CloneZilla does or perhaps the gparted Live CD.
I used Universal USB Installer to put Ubuntu 11.04 on my flash drive,and then ran it.Why does everything in my Ubuntu become so slow,including surfing the Internet and installing applications?

Java applet not loading image with relative path(e.g. images/1.jpg) but loads image with absolute path(i.e. from /root/user/images/1.jpg) . This is a problem when i want to host the applet on web server
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a program that takes a relative path as input appends it to a some path string to get the actual path.
Now all I can input is the relative path. So if I want to go one level above my input will be ../mypath.
If I know the depth of the path used internally, I can use .. as many times to go to the root directory and then give the absolute path. But suppose I do not know the depth of the directory, can I construct a relative path string such that it considers it as a relative path. One way could be to have enough .. in the path string so that I can force an absolute path for some maximum depth of path.
Is there some path string syntax that I am not aware of but can achieve this?
