I'm trying to setup a linux computer to connect to my works wirless. It uses a WPA2 password with a dollar sign in it. I can't input it into wpa_passphrase because it thinks dollar sign means some command.
How do I tell it that the dollar sign is part of the password?
i have a bunch of ubnt nanostations M series (wireless access points/routers)... they use airOS (a fork of openwrt). it runs a custom firmware that i made using provided sdk. and the lighttpd uses php/fi 2.0.1.... this is (of course) used to serve the web configuration.the problem: i need to use the ($) in a string but i couldn't. what i need to do is download some file from the internet using wget and have the pid of wget back to keep track of the process, then parse the output to the page.
I am trying to use Ubuntu terminal to execute unix commands. However, the dollar sign that usually appears in shell terminal is missing.

I just installed 10.04 on my Alienware. If I plug my headphones in it does not mute my laptop speakers. I have lurked the forums read a few suggestions that involve modifying the Alsa-base.conf file but when I try and modify me it doesn't give me the option to save. I'm assuming because I'm not root but shouldn't it give me the option to sign in with my password to allow modification?
I've installed alsa and tried clicking the headphones button and it just mutes everything. If I unmute the headphones click disappears there is no sliders for the headphone option. I have a HDA Intel : Realtek ALC889A.
I have a problem my ubuntu is the latest distro but the shiftkeys are not working like when i whant an @ sign i cant make that sign the keybaord layout has been changed i even have done most of the solutions found on the site and no use.
when ever i try to sign in to my messaging system it gives me this message and wont let me sign in,< Received unexpected response from [URL] useTLS=1 is not allowed for non secure requests.>
I was using windows xp, then I've installed ubuntu using the windows installer that [URL] offers. Before the installation begins, the program first asked me about the user name and the password that I want to set. but nothing about the root password. Later when i tried to sign in as the root, the password i've provided didn't work for the root, but it works with my normal user name. So now I want to sign in as a root.

I am a student taking an online course in electronics, on my class web site the Omega sign is showing up as a W instead. I have tried to change the font even tried to import new fonts that might have the sign. I have also tried to change the character encoding nothing has worked and ideas I will try anything. I am running firefox 3.5 and ubuntu 9.10
Is there any shortcut on keyboard to make this sign: � ? I know that in Office it appears automatically by typing "(c)", but what is about any other application?
Hello, everytime I log in, I get a prompt asking me to enter my password to unlock the keyring. Then when I open Empathy, I am not automatically connected. When I open my empathy accounts (F4), it says Available but I am not signed in. I have to remove and re-add my account.
I have been recently been using Ubuntu machines in my faculty labs at university that have % as the terminal sign for the line rather than the location.
For example, % kate & % echo "helloooo" > hello.txt %
I find this extremely annoying as I am used to % being replaced with a path to the current directory followed by a $. Like a default Ubuntu install.
For example,
james@james-pc:~$ cd Documents james@james-pc:~/Documents$
I would like to know if there is an easy way to change this to what I am used to? I don't necessarily need the "james-pc" bit, the username would be nice but I really want the path to the directory.
I was curious if there was a way to maybe change the orange page graphics when ubuntu 10.10 opens to the log in. That color is really hard on the eyes and I figure it might be a background graphic that I could maybe replace to something less bright.

I have Ubuntu 9.10 remix on my Dell mini 10, dual booting with windows xp. Everything worked fine, not a single hitch. Then this week I turned the computer on, and Ubuntu goes through the boot sequence and I get a blank screen before the sign on screen. Same result each time. I've worked with Ubuntu for about a year, but have never had boot problems and am really clueless on what to do here
I've just tried using my bluetooth today and Karmic cannot detect it. The dongle is blinking so I'm pretty sure there's no defect. I have the standard bluetooth packages installed. I've also tried the Bluetooth Setup with the:
how I would sign multiple files in ~/sign/unsigned and output them to ~/sign/signed with the orignal file name? The two issues I'm facing are
A.) I don't know how to sign all the files at one time in a folder using signapk or jarsigner
B.) When I do sign and individual file I don't know how to keep the same name from input using *.file (the wildcard) and keep the original name in the output.
There are 71 files i need to sign and make sure they all are signed with the same key at once. Individually signing them one by one would take too long because after I sign them individually I need to go and rename the signed file with the original name.
Here is the code I use to sign an individual apk file:
cd ~/sign/unsigned java -jar /home/andrew/sign/signapk.jar /home/andrew/sign/certificate.pem /home/andrew/sign/key.pk8 ~/sign/unsigned/*.apk ~/sign/signed/signed.apk
how I can keep the original input name to the output without having to rename them and then how could I sign multiple files at once?
I just installed 11.3 and everything works beautifully, but for some reason I can't sign in to Picasa. Everything works fine in Picasa, but when I sign in I get an invalid password message. I know the password is correct because I can switch to the browser and sign in with it, but for some reason it's not working within the program.
Has anyone else had any issues with this? I searched, but the problems with other user's Picasa programs seem to be with the program not working at all or crashing.
i need to know more about openssl.In particular i'm having problems with some basic coammand-line stuff to do with signing and base64 encoding.You'll have to excuse me but i'm a security n00b. What is the command for signing some text file with a given private key and then after that base64 encoding the same file.Can this be done with a single command? what's wrong with:
Code: openssl rsautl -sign -in textfile -inkey privatekey.pem enc -base64 -in textfile or should that be: Code: openssl rsautl -sign -in textfile -inkey privatekey.pem | openssl enc -base64 -

I installed 10.10 this morning from the live CD. Everything working perfectly whilst at home, but now I'm on the move I'm having troubles.At my parents' house trying to connect to their wifi. Wifi is on, their network is detected, I can go in and enter the WAP key and I get the strobing wifi icon in the top panel as though it's signing in, but after about 4 seconds I get a black screen and everything freezes. All that remains on the screen is the mouse pointer in its last position and a non-flashing cursor in the top left.
