I have such kind of problem recently. I need to run a command in the remote machine. The script's first line contains "source profile.xxx"
#!/bin/sh
. ${CONF_XXX}/profile.perf
Therefore, when I run it this way: ssh root@pprh4 /scratch/pa/pa701/path/1.2/bin/plcclient.sh -s it says "profile.xxx No such file or directory" And another one is how can I use a specific file for storing my password so that I don't have to type it?
Ubuntu works pretty well on most of the desktop computer (drivers support), the basic functionality like, keyboard, sound card, network card generally works well. But when it comes to laptop computer, really need luck. Some laptop's keyboard works weird, some cannot play music. I am recently thinking of buying a new laptop. Is there any website shows you which brand of laptop recommends which version of linux? or ubuntu works better on which brand of laptop?

What kind of video card(s) should work with Ubuntu?I have a Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics) with it's original card (ATY,Rage128Pro), which apparently doesn't work well with Ubuntu. I'm considering upgrading the card but don't want to spend a fortune on it.I would also like to know what the minimum HD or partition size for a Maverick installation and running is. Is 10 GB enough?
View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen I shut down the computer, then turn it back on- everything goes fine- system loads, no errors.BUTWhen I am in a turned on system, and I ask it to restart (reboot), when the machine restarts and the system starts loading- I get a kernel panic. Every single time- but only when I ask the machine to restart. If it helps, the error didn't appear on Fedora 14.
To make it more colorful- the same situation happens with my Ubuntu 11.04 (I have triple boot- Fedora, Windows and Ubuntu- I am learning Fedora to switch from Ubuntu). When I had Ubuntu 10.10- all was ok- when put 11.04- the error is the same- I can't restart my PC properly. The only system that loads as it should every time is Windows 7.Could anyone pls help me? My guess is that it's some kind of kernel change, because the error didn't show up in the previous versions of both systems (Fedora and Ubuntu).Did memtest (after 12 passes there were still no errors), tried acpi options, modeset, nomodeset (using grub2)- all for nothing.
When I open program files in windows some of them are almost nothing but boxes and triangles. I was always curious what the hell it was.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just updated my Dell Inspiron Mini to Maverick Meerkat (10.10), and I've very quickly run into quite a few problems. First, it took an awful long time to install all of the updates. Is that normal? Perhaps it's just because I'm using a puny netbook?
When the updates were finished and I rebooted, I logged in without any problems, but then got a gray screen. I've seen that screen before, when Ubuntu loads (especially with Lucid), but it doesn't go away. I rebooted using Desktop Edition instead of Netbook Edition, and there was an improvement, but the top toolbar is blank.Additionally, and most importantly, I can't get an Internet connection of any kind, wired or wireless.
I have no experience with embedded systems hardware and am looking to build a micro-budget underwater robot for exploring the bottom of a lake on the family homestead. I don't have much money to spend on this, but I want to run Debian Linux (I have lots of Linux Admin experience and am right at home with a terminal) or something like that on a small chip which needs to be able to:
Connect to the control computer via ethernet. Get digital or analog data from a GPS module, pressure sensor, etc. Control a few thrusters. Do various other hardware IO functions. Possibly control a robotic arm (this is a long shot, I know). And costs less than about 100 dollars. I have no experience with embedded systems hardware so I really don't know what to buy or where to start, aside from the fact that I heard that this would be a good place for something ARM-related. I am a software developer with time to burn as far as writing the programs to support this goes.

View 3 Replies View RelatedThis new feature of either making me wait a full minute or yet a confirmation of what I have already prompted the machine to do, ie. reboot or shut down, is a brainless waste of code. If it were a little easier to "accidentally" reboot it would be a different story. But to manually open the shutdown menu and click "shutdown" or "reboot" and then have the machine make me wait or manually instruct it to proceed with the command I have already issued is just, ... well, it's just plain dumb.
It's probably derived from the same logic which "upgraded" the package manager to only allow one package selection at a time. Yet another brain fart. I'm going to get "upgraded" right into another linux distribution if this kind of idiocy continues!

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am very happy to announce that today I succeeded to install full Slackware ARM on the pandaboard: URL...I did the following:
* sd with 2 partitions, one (vfat) for bootloaders (MLO, u-boot.bin) and uImage and the other one (ext2) for minirootfs
* copy xloader (MLO), uboot and uImage from Angstrom distro on the first partition
* copy Slackware ARM minirootfs on the second partition with Angstrom modules in the usual path (/lib/modules/...)
* boot in ARMedslack
* install all the others packages via NFS
I had to make some changes to configuration files as indicated here:URL...The next step is to build a kernel and modules for omap4 by myself and use them instead of the Angstrom ones.One question: is there any kind of package manager, such as slap-get, sbopkg, etc. for Slackware ARM? If not, can I use the SlackBuilds from slackbuilds.org? How to modify them?
since some days I have a strange problem with KMail (1.13.5) in KDE4.5.5. When I try to copy some text from an email and past it to any other program (e.g. Openoffice), not only the marked text will be pasted, but a kind of HTML code including the text.
This bug is not OpenSuse specific. I found the same bug in a Fedora mailing list (of course, whithout an answer): Strange Copy/Paste behavior in KMail 1.13.5/Kontact 4.4.8
I have a file with two fields of numbers that I want to use as input for another program.
Code:
The above code does not work, as I think it would take the whole first and second fields as the input for one particular instance of the program 'inputbashangle'. What I want is to get the first two numbers from the first line of the file 'outfailtest', execute 'inputbashangle' with them, then move on to the first two numbers of the second line for all the lines of 'outfailtest'.
I was wondering if it was possible to execute a program from RAM, like having the file data in a bash script variable and then running it.
Something like this:
ls=`cat ls`
$ls
So is it possible to run a program without touching the hard disk and without creating tmpfs or ramfs (it would need to be standard user privileges).
