OpenSUSE :: Spaces Allowed In-between Words In A File?

Jan 12, 2011

I tried Suse five or six years ago and ran into an issue that was not comfortable to work with so I went back to windows. The problem was open spaces between words was not permitted with my music files. I have transferred all of my CDs and LPs to MP3 and have a tremendous number of them and the Suse of five years ago required I convert a title like Foggy Mountain Special.mp3 into something resembling Foggy_Mountain_Special.mp3

I don't care to convert literally a hundred thousand titles to fit the latter format. Does the current version of Suse allow the use of spaces between the words or is the 'no open space' convention still required?

Ubuntu :: Command To Remove Spaces From Filenames?

Aug 18, 2010

I have just switched to banshee as my media player and imported my films and music. Problem is, the video list is quite hard to read because all the video files have spaces in their names which are replaced by % signs, numbers and letters. I'm wondering if there is a command I can use in the directory that will automatically remove all the spaces from the filenames or better still, replace the spaces with hyphens or underscores?

General :: Remove Words In A File Using Sed Or Any Other Command?

Nov 30, 2009

i want to remove words "Max" and "constrained" in a file given below:

Max 0.003745 constrained
Max 0.004549 constrained
Max 0.001689 constrained

[code]....

and further want to replace "Max" by line number so that i can plot the resulting file. i searched in forum, but couldn't do what i wanted to do. e.g. i used

1)grep command

grep -v "Max" inputfile >outputfile

deletes whole line,and hence whole text.

2) sed command

cat inputfile |sed 's/ .{1,12} //g' >outputfile

gives output

0.003745constrained
0.004549constrained
0.001689constrained

[code]....

General :: Bash Command To Remove Spaces

Sep 14, 2010

I am reading the output of /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/ATF0/temperature in a program to read my CPU temp. I am using cat like the following:

Code:
#cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/ATF0/temperature
temperature: 49 C

I basically want to get rid of the spaces in between temperature and the actual temperature. Is there a command I can pipe the cat output to, to remove the spaces. I have seen suggestions for sed, or tr, but for some reason I cannot get them to work properly.

Programming :: Using Sed To Remove Preceding And Trailing Spaces In CSV?

Sep 16, 2010

the preceding and trailing spaces around the commas in my CSV without destroying my address field. I'm new to regex and sed so this is probably easy but I just can't do it without destroying the Address section. I'm using vanilla Linux and sed 4.1.3I'm willing to use any regex or even awk if needed.

Example:
I need this
randall , dean, 11111 , 1309 Hillside Ave., Warsaw, VA , 23591

General :: Selectively Remove Blank Spaces From String?

Oct 7, 2009

need all spaces between two letters or a letter and a number exchanged for an underscore, but all spaces between a letter and other characters need to remain. One example for clarity:

Input:

force -- lamin 90 [label]
active A -- generation [label]

needed Output:

force -- lamin_90 [label]
active_A -- generation [label]

I tried solving this with sed but obviously s/ /_/g does not work, nor does any s/[a-zA-z0-9] [a-zA-z0-9]/[a-zA-z0-9]_[a-zA-z0-9]/g , because you just can't do this...

General :: How ToI Remove A Double Bootloader

Feb 27, 2010

I am currently using Windows Vista and Linux Ubuntu (I'm not 100% sure which version).However, whenever I start up my PC, I get greeted to the HP BIOS screen, and then after that, I get the Windows Bootloader.Now, this is where things get interesting:If, on the Windows Bootloader I select Microsoft Windows Vista, it loads Vista.If I select Ubuntu on the Windows Bootloader, I get treated to a second bootloader (I assume the Ubuntu Bootloader).I'm wanting to remove one of the bootloaders (keeping Vista as my primary OS, but still having access to Ubuntu in the bootloader). As a result of this, which bootloader should I remove, and how would I go about removing such bootloader?

General :: Shell - Rename A File From Something Without Spaces To Something Containing Spaces?

Jan 26, 2010

Is it possible, in Linux, to rename a file from something without spaces to something containing spaces? I know I can create directories and files with spaces by doing:

mkdir "new dir" and:

touch "new file.txt"

I want to rename files from:

imgp0882.jpg to something like:

20091231 1243 some topic.jpg

And how would it look in a shell script that uses parameters like:

for i in *.jpg do
rename "$i" "$somepath/$mydate $mytime $mytopic$extension"
?

I'm new to Linux (using PCLinuxOS 2009.2), coming from Windows, and I've written myself a little shell script to download files from my camera and then automatically rename them according to a date-and-topic pattern. As you can guess by now, I'm stuck on the bit about renaming. If you want to see my script, here's a copy. I'm not using jhead for this renaming because that only works with JPEG files but I want a single solution for any media format including videos.

CentOS 5 :: Remove A Volume Group / Array?

Nov 16, 2010

I'm trying to do a disk upgrade on some servers. They are using LVM with DRBD on top and each LVM volume contains a Xen image. I have already created identical volumes on another volume group, copied the data and pointed DRBD to the new source (Which seems to have worked).

What I am unsure of is how to safely remove the disks. The disks are an Areca Raid 1 array and support hotswap. Can I just pull them out of the machine or is some sort of command needed to tell LVM or the kernel to disconnect from the physical array device? Is removing the raid array from the Areca management GUI first a good idea?

Hardware :: Kernel Double Fault, Laptop Froze On Distro / Getting Error Double Fault: 0000 [#1] SMP?

Jun 19, 2010

My laptop's been locking up in Linux (Ubuntu, Backtrack, Puppy) periodically for a while now. When it locked up, it was always immune to the magic of SysRq, which I thought might indicate a hardware problem. It became so bad that I had to stop using the laptop.

Today, when I turned it on and tried to boot into Fedora 12, I got the following error (just once, it just locked up at various points during the splash screen after this once):

double fault: 0000 [#1] SMP
last sysfs file:
CPU 0
odules linked in:
Pid: 1, co m: swapper Not ta nted 2.6.32.11-99.fc 2.x86_64 #VGN-T 250N
RIP: 0010:[<ff

All the seemingly missing letters were really missing, not my typos.

As you can see, kernel version is 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.x86_64 and my laptop is a Sony Vaio TZ 250N (Core 2 Duo ULV 1.2GHZ). Note that with the other remaining kernels from the updates, nothing ever happened other than the locking up. The core temperatures hover pretty high, about 55-60C peak but this is still below the critical temp. Memtest came up clean when the problem first started happening.

Software :: EXT3-fserror: Inode Bitmap For Group 4 Not In Group

May 25, 2011

I've been tasked with fixing a Red Hat system that dies with a kernel panic during the boot stage:

Code:

EXT3-fserror (dev sda1): ext3_check_descriptors: Inode bitmap for group 4 not in group (block 67239937)!
EXT3-fs: group descriptors corrupted!
mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3: Invalid argument

I can boot into a Rescue CD, but I'm a bit out of my element because I don't use EXT3 myself, and I've never had to repair a corrupted file system before.

General :: Group Member Not Able To Write To Group's File?

Feb 8, 2011

I have a group (GROUP) with a number of users. I recently added a new user (NEW). NEW is able to read but not write group files, whereas all the other users in the group can read and write to the group files. The permissions for the group files indicate that all members of group should have write permission -rwxrwxr-x

/etc/group indicates that NEW is a member of GROUP
...
GROUP:x:501:GROUP,OLD,OLD2,OLD3,OLD4,....,NEW

[code]....

Don't know if it matters, but both OLD and NEW write to the GROUP files over an internet connection. why NEW can't write to GROUP files? Is there a maximum number of members in a group that I might have exceeded?
