When originally installing 11.04 I had problems getting my Ralink 5390 wireless card to work.
Today my computer froze completely and I had to turn it off via the power switch. When I turned it back on, wireless was no longer recognized! My iPod can connect to the network just fine, so it must be an Ubuntu problem. There are no problems with my ethernet connection either.
I researched this and found several threads about blocking and unblocking wireless devices using the rfkill command. Well, unfortunately for me the rfkill command doesn't work. When I type sudo rfkill list or sudo rfkill unblock all, nothing happens; it just returns me to my bash prompt. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling rfkill...nothing.
Using netbook asus 1005ha with lucid beta 1 with most of updates on learning to use the CLI and headaches cd command does not seem to reconise directories here is a sample

I just recently installed Ubuntu to do some light perl development. I was installing Adobe Air and after I made the bin file executable, I could not run it with the (./). It says that there is no such file or directory. Here is the output from my terminal:

I've deleted the .bin and re-downloaded it, I have renamed it, moved it and even tried executing it by removing the .bin and running it from its location. I am still getting the same errors.
Ive set a password for root after rebooting tried to su in console and authentication error. however sudo works fine but if your like me using sudo all the time starts getting annoying and at times i find myself apt-getting alot of packages so su is best for me my other 9.10 works fine which i installed from a canoical cd i went through my normal routine of changing my default user permissions.
e.g(add default to everygroup, and set a root password) so after the first time it wouldn't work i remembered that on my other 9.10 i changed the groups that root was in so i did the same thing i did with my default user. well it still doesn't work but i read somewhere that its possible to change it in the console.
why this command:
/usr/bin/freepopsd -vv > /home/shocker/Desktop/Freepopsd.log
doesn't write the log in the Desktop folder? It's written exactly like that in the Ubuntu startup program control panel and according to the ps command I understand it's correctly running:
$ ps aux | grep freepopsd
shocker 1676 0.0 0.1 227264 9128 ? S 13:22 0:00 /usr/bin/freepopsd -vv > /home/shocker/Desktop/Freepopsd.log
What am I missing?
I am trying to use the gedit command to edit my smb.conf file. It was originally working and all of a sudden it has stopped working. I have typed.. 'gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf' but it is a no go. I used the chmod command to set permissions as.. 'chmod 744 smb.conf' However I am still unable to get the file to open. If I do the 'more smb.conf' command I am able to read the contents of the file, however I am unable to edit them.

Code: jon-Tuxbox:~$ su
Password:
su: Authentication failure
jon-Tuxbox:~$ It fails, and I get kicked back to the command line. I recently fixed the permissions on the shadows file and the su file in the bin directory, and that is what caused this. Before it would give another error. I tried resetting the password for root, but it didn't fix it.

I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 to a live USB stick and created a new user with an encrypted home directory.Everything is working fine apart from a weird problem.when I create a new file or directory in the encrypted home it does not show up in directory listing.eg:cd ~/Documentstouch test.txtls -aldrwxr-xr-x 2 USER USER 4096 2011-03-02 14:12 .drwx------ 32 USER USER 8192 2011-03-02 13:03 ..if I try editing the file by entering the path, it works, even though ls does not list it!eg: nano ./testls as root makes no difference and the file is not hidden.If I create a file in nautilus, it shows there but still does not show in the terminal or any other app

I wanted to run a little media server in my house, shared with my laptop only, so I could free up space on my laptop drive. I took one of my Linux boxes out of my render farm and loaded up a minimal install, command line only of Ubuntu Lucid from the mini ISO (32 bit). I had to plug in a lan cable to install, but I wanted to move my box back out to the "farm" that doesn't have wired access to my intranet.
After much research, trial and error, this is what worked for me. My wireless card uses an Atheros AR5001X+ chip, and it works with the desktop cd out of the box. I found the "just works" desktop install uses the ath5k driver that is now included in Lucid, but I'm not using a desktop or window manager. I haven't tried this on server version, if you do, let others know what you had to install to get it to work.
The things I do tell you about, I instruct you as if you are a newbie, however I have left out some things that users should know or be able to lookup easily, like if you want a static address instead of using dhcp. You may not need all of the steps or you may have to do more research and troubleshooting.

I am trying to email some log files from my RHEL 5.3 server to my Outlook corporate account and nothing happens. Here is the command I use:[root@server1]# mailx -s "server info" my_id@my_corporate_domain < server_infoThe file server_info does exist and is a small log file. I checked for sendmail and seems to be running OK as follows:
[root@server1]# ps -ef | grep -i mail
root 13954 1 0 2009 ? 00:00:00 sendmail: accepting connections
smmsp 13962 1 0 2009 ? 00:00:00 sendmail: Queue runner@01:00:00 for /var/spool/clientmqueue
I'm not at all familiar with mail clients or mail system in Linux. Is there anything missing? I don't have to use mailx, I could use an alternative. Just please let me know how to sent a simple mail from this server to my corporate account using any tools possible (and maybe how to set it up)
I tried using the jobs command in bash in F14 but nothing happens.
Code:
[root@Fedora ~]# jobs -l
[root@Fedora ~]#
Code:
[root@Fedora ~]# which jobs
[Code].....
If jobspec is given, output is restricted to information about that job. The return status is 0 unless an invalid option is encountered or an invalid jobspec is supplied.
If the -x option is supplied, jobs replaces any jobspec found in command or args with the corresponding process group ID, and executes command passing it args, returning its exit status.
Is the jobs command dropped for the ps command instead ?

I have a website that I need to go to often and disable a monitor. To disable I need to login to the website-> click on monitor -> then uncheck a box.
I am told that I can do this through a scipt using the WGET command. I got the parameterized query and then tried to execute it through a *.sh script.
The script generates a php file in the location from where it is executed. When I go to the site and check the monitor is not disabled.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just started using gdb at my new job, and I'm having a small issue debugging C++ with it. After I execute "continue" or "run" through gdb, I'm not able to return control to gdb. Based on the documentation I read, I should be able to use Control-C to interrupt the program, and have control return to gdb.
This does not work on my setup. Not sure if it's related, but I'm debugging on a remote machine. I tried through PuTTY and xterm using Exceed XServer. In both cases, gdb does not respond to Control-C. This is quite annoying because I have to restart my program every time I want to set a breakpoint.
I have prepared a script which will login to each server and search for a keyword.
I want output on same machine from where m running script.
