I want to do some sort of emacs scripting. Means I want to write a script with several commands like searching copying etc. and then execute it inside of emacs. I'm sure this is possible, but I wasn't able to find a way to do so.
View 2 RepliesTwo nights ago I was trying to diagnose what was wrong with my internet connection. I couldn't get web pages to load, IRC and ssh weren't connecting, and email wasn't downloading (I still use POP3). I didn't know what to use to check my internet connection. I did a ping, but I didn't know how to interpret the results. So without the internet, I was totally blind.
Are there documents anywhere which install with Debian which I can search offline when my internet connection dies?
I just tried NFS for the first time after reading that it's considerably faster than SSHFS, which I currently use, but I'm experiencing slow write speeds and problems while copying files in nautilus.

I run the following command for disk duplicating from one source to 5 destination harddisk.
dc3dd progress=on conv=sync,noerror iflag=direct bs=262144 hash=md5 log=sda_log.txt if=/dev/sda | tee >(dc3dd of=/dev/sdb) >(dc3dd of=/dev/sdc) >(dc3dd of=/dev/sdd) >(dc3dd of=/dev/sde) | dc3dd of=/dev/sdf
When I run the command in shell prompt it is working fine. But I want to write a shell script for this task. When I wrote and run the shell script it gives the error message syntax error near unexpected token.
I'm a noob in Ubuntu. I need the program which will help me to learn different ubuntu commands. I often forget them and after reinstall I don't want to search them in Google. Now I write them in the standard text editor and my code looks like this:
Restore MBR:
Delete GRUB (fixmbr)
Ubuntu terminal then:
sudo apt-get install ms-sys
sudo fdisk -l

I'm writing output of top command to a file However since top does not provide time I would like to append the 'date' command and then write all this to a file.

I'm looking at an rc.sysinit:
# Remove stale backups
rm -f /etc/mtab~ /etc/mtab~~
# Enter root, /proc and (potentially) /proc/bus/usb and devfs into mtab.
mount -f /
mount -f /proc
mount -f /sys >/dev/null 2>&1
mount -f /dev/pts
I can't figure out what those "~"'s are doing. From the comments it's keeping mtab open to write the next (how many?) commands?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been using Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx for some time and I have some problems with Tracker (the searching tool):
1. It looks like it reindexes after every turning on a computer. It always starts at 0/55234 files.
2. It doesn't index e-mails in Evolution. I'm using IMAP, but all mail is marked for offline use. So it's on the harddisk. And it worked in older versions of Ubuntu.
3. GUI is totally different than the one which is shown on the website of Tracker [URL]. How is it possible? Is Ubuntu using some old version? Moreover the Czech translation is lost in Lucid. It was 100% translated in Karmic, and now it's completely English.
I've got some photos with two or more tags on and I was wondering if there was a way of only showing photos that had one tag and not another. I've found a way of doing it with AND and OR (the default) but I really want to search, for example, all my 'holiday' photos that don't have any pictures of person 'X' in.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI used to open Rhythmbox and click on the playlist. Then I typed a song's name and the chosen song would appear highlighted on the playlist.
However, since I upgraded to Maverick when I repeat that same procedure Rhythmbox will search for an artist containing whatever I typed instead of a song's title containing it.
I want the old feature back. I don't know if I'm being clear...
I have recent started using Ubuntu 11.04, It works fine in general.
Though I miss to be able to use my webcamera, I guess the reason for this is that Ubuntu has a lack of drivers.

I have a database called 'gaming' and with in that database there are several tables and data. I was asked to find a module called 'ako ldap' and disable it (setting it from 1 to 0). My question is how in MySQL do I search for a string if I don't even know what table to search in? I know how to search using the 'select' statement as long as I know where the table data is. In this case I only know which database but nothing more except what I am looking for.

View 9 Replies View RelatedThere are several package types in synaptic. -doc. Obviously, these are docs. They go into /usr/share/doc folder. Is there some sort of GUI for viewing and searching docs, something like MSDN?
-dev. Not exactly sure about these ones. Are these development files (binaries, source code etc) for coders/developers who want to work on that particular project?
-dbg. Not sure about these ones too. Debug versions of binaries? Shouldn't they be included with development files? Let's be more specific.
libstdc++6. This has runtime for applications compiled with C++.
libstdc++6-4.5-dev. Needed to develop and compile those applications.
libstdc++6-4.5-dbg. Needed to debug applications which use binaries from libstdc++6.
Is their (I assume their is) of searching for and deleting duplicate files that exist in different paths?
