View 6 RepliesI'm still pretty new to linux, and burning through a unix/linux course offered at the local JC. I'm working on an assignment for shell scripting and I need to make a script that displays a bunch of junk (pwd, date, yadda yadda) and then prompts the user to enter a directory so they can view the contents. If it's valid, then it displays the contents. If it isn't then it throws an error message and the script stops. This is done using if, then and else. The problem is, my script always shoots straight to the else, even if the subdir entered IS a valid subdirectory.Here's what I have:
Code:
clear
pwd

I seem to be getting a lot of firefox crashes. I was actually able to reproduce it every time by typing "S02" into the search bar...not sure why. Here's the backtrace. Edit: Odd, it also crashes when I enter s02 into my history search box...

What are they? Before they were not required to set up an internet connection(wired, I'm giving up on wireless for the moment) and now they are. I asked the lady at my isp and she didn't know. What should I enter in the blank for search domains?

As soon as I turn the computer on, it auto-logs in, and when I press enter (it seems it works for anything) the machine logs out. After logging back in it's fine however.

I need to search a bunch of files in a specific folder for a specific number and add all the numbers together to a total sum. I use Rsync everyday, everytime I run rsync i get a logfile (rsync output) witch contains the textstring "Total bytes sent: xxxxxx".
The "xxxxx" can vary in lenght. I need to extract the "xxxxxx" from each file and add the numbers together to a total size over a week or a month. Is this possible? And I wish to only use bash. One way of doing stuff at a time my friends .
11.4 (both new or upgraded), under gnome, when I type [Alt][Enter] I getmaximize window. If I do the same on gnome-terminal, it does nothing - soit must be a "feature" of xterm, which 11.2 did not have. Indeed, it is notlisted on the desktop shortcuts.How do I disable it?It interferes with Midnight-Commander, alt-enter is used to copy filenameto the command lineCarlos E.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIf I'm in a folder and I press a letter, a text box would pop up at the button and the letters would go in there. It's very annoying, because when I am listening to songs, I press more the one key at the same time so I can find the song I want fast. Impossible to do this in Ubuntu with the search box.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 and now if I leave my computer inactive for 5 minutes it goes black and then I have to enter my password. This is really annoying when I am streaming videos or watching movies. I have gone through all the admin and preferences and can't find how to turn this off or even how to change the time for going into stand-by. I would expect it to be in the power management but it isn't there.
View 5 Replies View Relateddose any one know the text string to enter to DISABLE ip v6 100% during the install?using the gui installer for fedora 5,6,7,8,9 i have been able to disable this ( uncheck a check box) then set the system up manually for ip4 .the reason is for some reason if ip6 is on during the install ( i have had this problem with all versions of fedora f5 through 9 and now 10)then fedora will never, never, NEVER ever connect to the net .the ip6 lookup kills my cable box, i boot into windows and it can not even connect until i unplug the box for 2 min and plug it back in and get a NEW/renewed ip address .so i do believe that i am going to need to do a text install and disable ip6. But the question is HOW ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedJust upgraded to 11.04 and this drives me nuts. When an app/window is opened, if it is "sufficiently" large, it maximizes. I use eclipse. Eclipse is a screen-space hog, however I still need to be able to see other windows and the application bar around the edge of the eclipse window. Unfortunatly Unity(?) is fighting me on this set up because every time i relaunch eclipse, it becomes maximized even if I, the user, have explicitly un-maximized it.
How can I disable this auto-maximize behavior.
I just installed kubuntu 9.10 and noticed that several partitions (fat32 and ntfs) are mounted automatically after I login. I searched /etc/fstab but found no entries for those partitions. So I guess there may be something like start-up scripts that automatically detect and mount all partitions on the hard disk at boot/login. Does anybody know the location of those scripts (if any)? I want to disable that auto mount.

/etc/rc0.d/S89casper is a link though, so I just edited the file it points to (/etc/init.d/casper) -- seems to be working. I merge a modified "casper" at every boot, next time I build a Remastersys, I'll try to make it permanent.

View 2 Replies View Relatedthis issue has been bugging me for years. I want the same capability in Fedora that exists in most recent versions of Windows -- disable the touchpad on my laptop if an external mouse is plugged in. Note that my how-to is a little hardware-specific regarding the actual disabling of the touchpad; I'll discuss that more at the end of the guide.
So, here goes: For my OS (Fedora 13 x86_64) and hardware (Dell Precision M4500) - I needed a specific utility and three scripts. This Dell's trackpad and nipple-stick are seen as an 'internal' PS/2 mouse by Fedora, so I had to install 'xinput' to disable it.

In does not prompt for log in, password, and desktop environment choose. When I want a second user, I must log out from the first created, and e log in as second. How can I now disable this option of the auto log in?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've noticed in Gnome pretty much all applications auto-rotate images when viewing, but leave the original image data intact. This may sound silly, but when I want to post pictures on, for instance, Facebook they upload as the picture was originally taken. So, if I took a picture with the camera flipped sideways it appears upright in Nautilus and the two image viewers I have installed, but when I upload the picture it appears to be flipped on its side. Does anyone know how to disable the auto-rotate when viewing feature?
