View 4 RepliesI want to record an internet radio station starting at 2:00am tomorrow morning. The specific program on the radio station lasts until 6:00am. The command I need to run to record the station is: Code:mplayer http://wjcu.jcu.edu:8001/listen.pls -ao pcm:file=indie_heat_of_the_night.wav -vc dummy -vo nullI'd use cron, but 1. I'm not sure how to and 2. it seems unnecessarily complicated for something that I only want to run once. If cron is the only/easiest solution, I guess I'll just have to resort to that, but I'd rather not.

A first stab at this would be running
Code:
ps -eo pid,cputime
at the beginning of the interval and at the end, then doing some arithmetic on the two sets of results. But this only shows whole seconds of cputime ... and what about processes that started and stopped during the interval?
not sure if this goes here, but is there a way to get the mouse to continuously click automatically after a set time interval? (eg, 2 seconds) i've googled and found plenty of auto-clicking software for windows, but no luck for linux.

I can't figure out for the life of me why the time keeps changing. How can I set it to update it's time every day or two? I don't want to hit ntp.org every day, as is recommended. What's the recommended interval for connecting to the ntp pool? The kernel is Linux 2.6.9-67.0.4 (from uname -a)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am impressed with the visuals of both Ubuntu 10.04 and Firefox 3.6, but unfortunately I've been experiencing a very annoying issue since my install of 10.04 two days ago.
When I begin a Firefox session (using profile manager, in case it might have any relevance to the issue) it moves at lightning speed for the first five or so pages. Then, if I try a website it will time out (I have tried various pages, so it is not a page-specific issue) forcing me to refresh the page, wait roughly ten seconds, and finally be back on the initial page.
I am too lazy to re-list my PC stats, but they can be found in my signature. I am running on a household network, with the average connection speed ranging from from 40-80%.
The only other Ubuntu release I have used is Jaunty, where Firefox 3.0 (was it really 3.0 back then?) worked perfectly.
I have installed Google Chrome as well, and it seems to have the same relative issue, but it manages to recover from the timeouts quickly.
My only thought is perhaps it is an internal Internet setting that is disturbing the browser(s), potentially a default setting that has been modified since 9.04?
when im trying login in my web ftp with correct pass and username its automaticly refresh the page. I have instaled easy-wi for i can make servers, but ftp dont works. Second problem is cronjobs. i dont know how to enabkle for this panel.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am running a script with nohup and this generates a lot of logs.
In order to view the log I use tail -f nohup.out
The problem is that the info supplied by this command is not always the latest//sometimes I need to use the command again order to view the latest info added to the nohup.out file.
I know that 'man gfortran' will get me the manual page for gfortran, but how do I lookup only the bit I want, which is '-Wall'? I can't find anything in the manual page for man.I could use 'man gfortran | grep -Wall' but that would return just a single line and not the whole paragraph.
View 5 Replies View RelatedSo at work I usually forget to shut down my computer at the end of the day 5:30 and they switch the breaker off at 6pm which cant be good way to shut down a computer. So i was doing some googling and this is what i come up with.
this is the example i found online Code: #crontab -e -u root Code: 0 20 * * * /sbin/shutdown -h now since the above turns it down at 8pm i need to edit it to 5 30pm
Code: 0 17:30 * * * /sbin/shutdown -h now would this be correct?
How do you find a file modified March 17, 2010, between 3:30 pm and 4:05 pm? I know that I must be missing something somewhere.How do you search for info like this? I goggled "search files time Linux" and got about 38,300,000 results. I looked through the first four pages and did not see what I was looking for.Do I need to calculate how many minutes ago that is and give that to find.I really want to do this in the GUI so that I can operate on the files found without typing in so much stuff.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running Ubuntu 10.10 in a computer with a 7200rpm HD, 8Gb Ram, and a Core i7, and the time it takes to load the desktop is insane. There are threads that mention the problem of gnome looking for nonexistent floppy drives and to solve the problem by disabling that in the BIOS (option I don't have). Anyway, besides that problem, by running at startup a gnome-terminal with the iotop command, I noticed that two processes have a huge i/o load on the system: google desktop and ubuntu one. I would like those programs to run as part of the startup process, but be launched after several seconds (to allow the rest of the programs to load). Is there any way I can achieve this? I think there should be a way modifying the commands under startup application, but I cannot find anything that works.

At the moment this is what I have and it changes the permissions of the file but not according to the time specified.
I have looked high and low for this, but to no avail. I am looking for a script to shutdown my computer when it reaches a specific time (say 10:00). I know about the shutdown command but if I use that I cannot shutdown my computer manually. I would like to be able to shutdown manually AND automatically.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've been quite puzzled by the behavior of unattended updates - it seems it runs the updates at or before 7am (on all the server installs I've got). They are only set to do security updates unattended, but what I am wondering is if there is a way to change the time that they install? I want the updates to install early in the morning, at like 3am or such, so I can reboot the machine when I get up if needs a reboot.I found a few mentions about it, but nothing specifically talking about the time.[URL]..

I'm trying to get 4 sata drives to go into standby, but hdparm seems to be ignoring the settings. If i issue hdparm -y /dev/sdx the drive duly goes into standby and stays in standby until accessed. I've put entries in rc.local along with the hdparm.conf settings, but still no joy.
Hdparm.conf:

In windows, you could do a dir | more to scroll one page a time.How does one do this in Linux?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to extract just a few files/folders from a Time Machine backup, but can't seem to find them. The drive is automatically mounted in Ubuntu, and am able to access after enabling view hidden files, the HFS+ Private Data Directory. But that is a jumbled array of thousands of numbered folders, with each taking a fair amount of time to open on this aging Dell running 10.10.
I've tried running the standard Places - Search for Documents, with 'Show hidden and backup files' enabled, but that won't pull up any of the search times I'm going for (and seemingly won't find anything at all on the drive). So, is there any way to decipher the directory tree so as to be able to access this data from Ubuntu? Or perhaps a file embedded somewhere in there that lists out the original structure, so that I can use it as an index to see what number correlates to what originally named folder?
Can anyone shed some light in this? Using Fedora 14-64, new install, 185 Opteron x 2 gig ram, sata hard drives formatted Ext4.However, in my home directory I have a folder for all my digital photos of which I have more than 20,000, and in another folder I have images and clipart of which I have almost 8,000. That is a lot of read only access to a significant number of files in my home directory.
How can I tell Fedora to not update the LAST ACCESS TIME of those files (specifically images) that will never actually be changed other than just being read. I want to leave that feature enabled for the rest of my home directory. I am trying t; improve my disk performance in Nautilus because whenever I access the folders with my images the system literally slows to a crawl and sometimes even the mouse stops working for several minutes until Nautilus has finished having its heart attack.
I am using openSUSE 11.2 and had the same issue once before in openSUSE 11.1 After some time, two domains I use very often can't be accessed any more, these are: Google and [URL]... (am doing some OO development recently). At the time where I write this post, only these two are "blocked".
When I try to access these two domains using Firefox, w3m or telnet, it tries to open the connection forever. Ping works fine. I tried opening the IP directly in the browser, but same problem, the connection never reaches. I know it's not a router issue, as the other computers can access these domains. Still, I tried to restart the router, but the issue persists. I tried restarting the network service (/etc/init.d/network stop + start), also nscd, without success. The only way I found to make it work again is to reboot. This problem reappears from time to time, after using the computer for a long time, and accessing these domains a lot of times. Note that I also use suspend to disk, so the "blocked" state is kept after resume. Only reboot "cures" it.
We have configured a script to be run at specific time using crontab.
Code:
# crontab -l
as per the crontab entry script should run every day 11.15 a.m
Every time when the script is executed i get a mail but when i run it using crontab it doesn't send any mail.
However when i execute it manually i get the mails.
Even the execution is getting logged in cron log.
Code:
When I leave my computer and later return, depending on how long I've been away, I find the screen-saver running, the screen turned off, or the computer suspended, i get the error as specified below on a black screen:
Quote:
Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode.
Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself.
The message gives several options. Despite some experimentals, The only solution which I have found is to reboot and everything becomes fine as before.
Is there a way to set Linux to automatically log in to a specific user account and at the same time lock the screen? I want to save time and trigger various software that always should start up on boot, while leaving the computer unattended during startup (extra important and practical for remote control boots), by enforcing a 'screen lock' so that no-one can see what happens behind the login screen without entering the login credentials.
