Programming :: Coverage Testing With Gcov - Terminal Not Accepting Copy Paste?
Jun 1, 2010I have this treacherous program in C which uses external static libraries (extern etc), and want to do a coverage test of it. The libraries are written in fortran. I compile like this Code: gcc -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage -o main main.c library.o I run my nice program like that
Code: ./main Then I do the magic stuff
Code: gcov main.c library.f
Ok 98% of the lines were used in main.c, and I get a file with line counts and all that. Great! But, I need to know the coverage in my library too! It says 0.0% and that's impossible. So what can I do? I can't run it like an executable because it's a library.
And why is the terminal not accepting my copy paste? I copy some lines from my IDE, then I want to paste it into the terminal (with ctrl-v of course, not some crazy local application non-standard counter-intuitive key combo made just to cause agony among honest users!), and that could've been the only problem here, but it isn't. I can't even paste with that right click menu. So, if I was crazy before, I went nuts after that. My great "solution" was to paste it into the firefox URL field (not the search field ) and then copy that and paste it into the terminal. Is that common practice for you all while dealing with that unburied DOS-window?
Debian :: Gnome 3 Not Testing
Jul 6, 2011I installed debian testing (wheezy) in virtualbox as I plan on installing it on a laptop. I thought it would come with gnome 3 but that appear to not be the case. [url] Is unstable running gnome 3? Is there a way to run gnome 3 with testing or would that be a bad way to go about it?

Ubuntu :: Copy Gnome Desktop Layout To Another Computer?
May 23, 2010Ubuntu 10.04
I tried copying .gnome2 from my personal machine to another computer hoping my desktop layout would be manifested on the second computer, but it wasn't. What else do I need to copy from my home directory to the new machine to make this happen?

Jun 22, 2010I am using Fedora 13 and I have one program (wine) that I need to start grabbing for the updates-testing repo instead of the default repositories in order to get newer versions. I think I can figure out how to add that repository, but I need to know if there are any others I need to disable or any other changes I need to make to my system so that I don't confuse my set up with conflicting updates.
Also, is there anything special I need to do to be sure that only that one program is grabbed from the testing repo when I run regular updates?
Ubuntu Networking :: Copy Files From XP Infact Folders Using TERMINAL In Netbook, Not Copy And Paste Using Mouse?

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Copy A Read-Only File And Make The Copy Writable With A Single Cp Command?
Mar 1, 2011How to copy a Read-Only file in Linux and make the copy writable with a single cp command in Linux (Ubuntu 10.04)? The --no-preserve and --preserve seemed to be good candidates, except that they should "and" the mode flags, while what I am looking for is something that will "or" them (add +w mode).
More details: I have to import a repository from GIT to Perforce. I want that all Perforce depot files are Read-Only (that is how Perforce was designed), while all other files that were derived/copied from depot files are writable. Currently if a Makefile tries to copy a Read-Only file then the derived file will also be Read-only. This leads to build-errors when cp tries to overwrite Read-Only file second time. Of course the --force is a workaround here but then the derived file is also Read-Only. Also I do not want to mess with "chmod" after each "cp" command - I will do that only as the last resort.
Fedora :: Disk Copy Utility - Should Be Able To Not Only Copy Files But Boot Sector And Everything

Debian :: Debian Testing Vs Debian Stable With Testing Repositories?
Feb 28, 2009I am a ubuntu user but I want to go to the next level to use debian because what I heard of it, but I get confused to what to install on my computer do I install debian testing or debain stable with testing repositories.
- I want to use this system to the home use only.
- I want to use the newest packages because the stable packages is too old to use.
- What about using more than one repository i.e stable with testing with unstable at the same time (the same sourcelist)
- Is the testing and unstable sid packages good enough for the home use?

Ubuntu :: Windows Testing Without Virus?
Sep 12, 2010Since I am having troubles with sharing folders with win xp in virtualbox, I would like to know whether the following sort of idea is feasible: I want a windows xp system on which I can test my softwares with crack files - and crack files are mostly unlikely not to have viruses. Can it be used nearly full featured kind of virtually, so that this immunity to viruses can be achieved? But usual windows system usually are vulnerable to viruses; hence this question.

Ubuntu Installation :: Testing Live Cd On Old Computer - GUI Does Not Come Up
Jun 11, 2010I had tried a previous version of ubuntu on this same machine a couple years ago. Version 7.xx I think. That live cd would boot up into the GUI okay although it was still kind of slow. Fast forward to now, I am trying to boot my machine from an xubuntu cd version 10.04. The GUI does not come up and I am only presented with a terminal. When I try to start the GUI (startxfce4) I eventually see a message that the monitor/video does not support color depth 24. Believe it or not, I still have that older version of ubuntu so I tried it again and sure enough it still works.
So here is what I have noticed is different. On the older version of ubuntu it appears to be using the 'glint' video driver. The new version of xubuntu is using the 'vesa' driver. I tried changing this by creating an xorg.conf file and adding a driver line specifying 'glint'. After trying to start the GUI with that change I get an error saying that the glint module could not be loaded.
So finally to my question, is the glint video driver loaded by default in xubuntu? I see it's package listed under xubuntu. I even tried installing the package myself using apt-get and that seemed to work. It went through some steps and did not report any errors but I still get the same error afterwards.
What do I need to in order to use the glint video driver with xubuntu 10.04? Of course, the other issue is that the install does not recognize my wireless card either so there is no internet access on this machine. Oh yeah, the video card in the machine is a 3DLabs Permedia 2 (it looks like ubuntu recognizes it as a Texas Instruments but still permedia 2).

Feb 9, 2011I am learning exploit development and learning some stuff about shellcodes now! The shellcode is absolutely right and have tested it. I am using the following code...(created by me) to run my shellcode..
Code:
// #include<stdio.h> we will not be needing this as we are not using any functions from the C library...Just basic logic of Pointers..
char shellcode[] = "x31xc0xb0x01x31xdbxb3x07xcdx80"; // basic exit shellcode
int main()
{ int *ret; // a simple integer pointer pointing a address
ret = (int *)&ret + 2; // change the address pointed by
(*ret) = (int)shellcode; }
Compiling :-
Code:
aneesh@aneesh-laptop:~/articles/C$ gcc test.c -o test -fno-stack-protector
Compiling gives no errors as expected..
Now the problem I am facing is that As I run the program :-
Code:
aneesh@aneesh-laptop:~/articles/C$ ./test
Segmentation fault

I have some feeling that its because the program has no access to the memory containing the shellcode (May be???)..
Ubuntu :: While Testing Compiz - It Broke Desktop
May 19, 2011Today, after some testing with compiz in my PC, I ended up uninstalling it again, because the video card didn't have the right specs. So when I rebooted, my desktop started acting weird - the applications' top panels disappeared, they couldn't be moved around, no more usable workspaces, etc ... also the mouse pointer keeps on rotating indefinitely, making my OS practically unusable. So is there any hope I can restore my desktop to its previous state, or do I have to do a full reinstall, which I'd like to avoid if possible ?
