So my question: what i could try to get it up and running again? not sure if the problems began since a power outage.

Sep 1, 2010my brother's computer is pretty slow, but was working fine with ubuntu karmic, but I decided to finally upgrade him to lucid the other day, and recently his bootups take, at worst, 10 minutes,when in karmic it took way less. It just sits on a blank screen (not even a blinking cursor)
His pc's specs are:
1.4 Ghz processor (single core)
on-board graphics (no graphics card)
two hdd's one 80GB and one 150GB (the 150GB is split into 3 partitions)
465.7MB of ram 4.1GB of swap
I've attached his bootchart and it seems that Modprobe, Framebuffer, udevadm, and blkid are taking the most time to load, but I dont really know, i'm new to linux. Also how do i disable bootchart now that iv'e used it. p.s Heres he same bootchart just in case the one attached gets shrunk by ubuntuforums [URL]..

May 23, 2010I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 and now if I leave my computer inactive for 5 minutes it goes black and then I have to enter my password. This is really annoying when I am streaming videos or watching movies. I have gone through all the admin and preferences and can't find how to turn this off or even how to change the time for going into stand-by. I would expect it to be in the power management but it isn't there.

Mar 26, 2011I know my way around MS Windows much better, but I just don't feel right trying to program something for Android on a Microsoft operating system. I am interested in Android programming so I followed the instructions on [URL] to install the environment on my computer...
I just installed the JDK, SDK, Eclipse successfully (or I assume):
* When I get to Step 4 where I'm supposed to run 'android' it will not run. I get the error message "android: command not found" (I am definitely in the right directory).
** When I double-click it in nautilus, it opens up in gedit. I can set the permissions in nautilus (through the properties - Allow executing file as a program) and get it to work,

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Is Command Line Invocation Of Gnome-terminal To Run More Than One Command
Feb 17, 2010how to pass something more than a one-command startup for gnome-terminal. I will give an example of what I'm trying to do here:
Code:
#! /bin/bash
#
#TODO write this for gnome and xterm
[code]....
This same error occurs if the gnome-terminal line is changed to
Code:
gnome-terminal -e mcTerm
Is there any way to pass more than one command on to gnome-terminal? I have tried various single and double quoting senarios and in a final attempt, I abstracted to an exported function all to no avail. Perhaps even though gnome-term is better at many things than xterm, xterm trumps it in this instance.
Red Hat :: Turning Ruby On Rails Ubuntu Command Into Redhat Command
Dec 2, 2008I'm the noobiest noob you'll find on here. I'm having trouble getting ruby on rails to work with mysql on redhat. So on their forum I asked how to install the latest "sqlite" database package on linux.They told me to run.Now, I don't think I need "sudo" because I am the root user on my database, and I don't think I can use "apt-get" because I'm using redhat, not ubuntu.
1) Is there a way of running the above command on redhat? (A redhat command for installing things?)
2) How can I be sure I'm using redhat and not some other OS?

$cmd If this script is executed, an error is generated.

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Bash Command History Update Before Execution Of Command
Jun 7, 2010Bash's command history is great, especially it is useful when adding the history -a command to the COMMAND_PROMPT.However, I'm wondering if there is a way to log the commands to a file as soon as the Return key is pressed, e.g. before starting the command and not on completion of the command (using the COMMAND_PROMPT option would save the command once the prompt is there again).
I read about auditing programs like snoopy and session recorder like script but I thought they're already too complex for the simple question I have. I guess that deactivating that script logs all the output of the command would lead already in the right direction but isn't there a quicker way to solve that probelm?
General :: How Does Cp Command Determine Source And Destination Locations In Command?
Apr 14, 2011When you run the following cp command in the BASH terminal, how does Linux know which files are the source and which are the destination when copying multiple files from one location to another?How does Linux know that the services, motd, fstab, and hosts files are the source and the /home/fred/my_dir is the destination?This question came up in a Linux class and I was not sure of the answer. I was thinking it is based on the source path entered ending with a file path and the destination being a directory, but was not sure.
