View 5 Replies View RelatedIs there a command which can be used to run some other command on a few lines from a file or an o/p of some file. (the kind of role that -exec option does for the find command). (I have solved the purpose using a bash loop but would like to know if there exists a command).

Everything was going great, updated my nvidia drivers, did initial updates etc... And everything was awesome from the boot screen to the shutdown screen.Recently (today) I installed a few updates that update manager thought were essential. However after doing so, when I restarted my computer and got to what should have been the boot screen, it simply sat for a few seconds with a few horizontal RGB lines and then booted to the login window... I have done nothing else to the pc besides those updates.Also when I shutdown I get the same few RGB lines, they are in the top area of my monitor @ a 135 degree angle.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis should be simple but I can't seem to find what I am looking for.I want to search a text file for the existence of certain strings and execute a command if they exist, something along the lines of:
if <string> exists

or
if <any member of this list exists>

I know how to manually search a file with grep, cat, etc., but the "if this exists" part eludes me.
I've just installed Kubuntu 11.04, switched on wobbly windows effect. It runs very smooth on my Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS with dual screen twinview turned on. However, I get these lines when I drag/move the window upwards - see screenshot:
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy system runs fine, I have an Nvidia card and when I boot up I guess it would be Plymouth displays some stuff; several lines and it goes by too quick for me to be able to read much of it.
Then it goes back to normal and the login in screen appears like normal. Everything is normal except for the black display and the stuff that is displayed before the login screen appears. Even with this, my system boots up in under 20 seconds at last check.
Is there anything I should/could do to get the errors or information lines or whatever they are to not show up?
I installed Lucid during beta (I think) and have kept up with the updates and all appears smooth to me. I have a super nice custom grub2 screen.
I recently formatted my HDD and installed Ubuntu Server 10.04 x64. This is actually the 4th install in the past week because I was testing some things. But I had this problem on at least the previous install which made me want to start fresh again. The problem I'm having is Ubuntu will not boot if I add any of my drives to fstab. If I leave it with the standard proc, /, and swap lines it works fine. As soon as I add a line for one of my RAID arrays or an NTFS formatted partition the system hangs on bootup. It doesn't matter if I have the extra drives operating or not.
The last thing I see before it hangs is:
Code:
/dev/sda1: clean, 69351/4358144 files, 583945/17401600 blocks
Here is what the fstab currently looks like:
Code:
proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
UUID=c62ac627-46a6-4fd5-87e8-4ae0d9185d53 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
UUID=c1cee1e4-f8ac-4555-a88b-f237afdedd27 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/md0 /mnt/raid5 ext4 defaults 0 0
The other two lines which also made it hang included one which was almost exactly the same as the /dev/md0 line except it was md1 with a different mount point and another which used a UUID and was ntfs-3g. I know they work because all 3 of them were mounted by "mount -a" after putting them into fstab and they're pretty much the same as what I was using with 9.04 server.
I have been experiencing a problem where the screen loads and after initial first few lines breaks up into multiple repetitions of lines. Reloading helps but has to be repeated when pageing down. Mail is no problem; it is supplied by my network provider. OS is openSUSE 11.2 which I update when advised. Below is a sample from the error console:

Upon boot up the usual little mouse splash boot is suppose to come up. Once I first installed it (10.10 via usb) the boot screen worked perfectly but after I updated via the update manager the boot splash became all static and green lines across the image. It still boots up to the login screen but it's just ugly looking at it.

Since updating my graphics driver on ubuntu 10.10, My splash screen has been inconsistant and messed up. Sometimes ill get random command lines mixed in with the usual splash, sometimes the splash wont show and it will just be black till the desktop appears, sometimes it flashes on and off. I originally tried fixing the resolution and just made the problem worse. Then I tried installing a new splash via gnome-look.org, but it just made my shut-down splash blank and didnt effect my splash at startup. I just want the original splash that ubuntu is supposed to have.

how to change (rename, delete) lines from boot list in grub 2, Ubuntu 10.04? For example, when I boot my pc, I have a boot list with options "Ubuntu 10.04", "memtest" and "Windows 7". I want to delete "memtest" line, as I don't need it, and rename "Windows 7" line to, for example, "Windows 117". How can I do that? Where I should look and edit? In old grub it was enough to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, but in Ubuntu 10.04 there is no such file and other grub2-related files (like grub.cfg) do not contain this info to rename or delete lines. So, I can't figure out what to do.
View 3 Replies View RelatedDownloaded the F10 live CD. Booted to it, got past the white, blue, and dark blue loading bar then my screen would be covered in black and white lines. No sign of the GUI except for a mouse cursor. ctrl+alt+backspace would cause the display to blink off and then come back on to the same thing. ctrl+alt+f2 would bring me to a terminal, logged in as root, but from there I couldn't do anything. startx would tell me I had x running on another screen.
hitting tab when booting the livecd and adding "xdriver=vesa" and "nomodeset" to the boot line. That works. I get to the desktop at native res with desktop effects. Killer. I tried to install; install went flawless, rebooted to my HDD and the same issue, black and white bars. When booted to my HDD, however, ctrl+alt+f2 doesn't bring me to a terminal, it causes my monitor to go into sleep mode and my computer becomes unresponsive so I can't do anything from the command line.
Here's what I'm getting at : how do I get my installed version of F10 to do the "xdriver=vesa" and "nomodeset" args that the livecd can do?
My machine is a home built machine I bought off of a friend. P4 2.4 ghz, GB RAM, 2 80GB HDDs, Radeon x1600.
When I boot up F12, after I have decrypted the hard drives and after the services have started but before I get to the login screen my display flashes a series of interlaced lines across the screen. As far as i can tell theres no other problems with my computer, everything else seems to work fine. Its been there awhile now and its still there after a yum update. On first boot up of the day it shows white/gray lines (firstboot.jpg) [URL]. On subsequent shut down, boot ups it shows a blue, almost denim like display (shutdown.jpg) [URL]. Theres no problem if i just do a restart. Maybe related as well, last week some time my computer froze (opening large file, watching dvd and had firefox open, guess I ran out of memory?) So I did a reboot using the button on my computer, at the point where I usually get the coloured lines it instead showed a snapshot of my desktop just before it crashed. Though this happened after I first noticed the coloured lines.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've come across an unusual requirement for a service in my Ubuntu system.Simply put, I need to find a way to search for all instances of a term in a file, delete lines containing containing that term, and delete four lines below each instance of that term. ither that, or copy the entirety of a file to a new file and skip over all lines containing the term plus four below it.This sounds kinda weird, I know. Without going too far into detail, I either have to change the logfile format for a server I'm running which is a huge pain in the butt, or I can just run a script to edit an HTML report generated from said logs. (Said report is really just for managers to peruse, and I like my log format, so I'm pursuing option 2.)
