  1. It's hard to believe that I have been chatting with Hitest, shannan and some of the others for over 4 years now.. This is the only site I go to now, Leoville became full of trolls, it was hard to not tell people off.

    what happen to Uberpenguin?

  2. I have an issue on a server where a samba share keeps dropping but mount shows that it is there, but df will show that it is not

    I create a script

    check=`df|grep /dev/sda5|wc -l`

    if [ $check -ne 0 ]

    then

    echo "sda2 is there"

    else

    echo "sda2 is not there"

    fi

    this is the basic outline.. is there a better way? (note I do not have the same share on this workstation so I substatuted a device I know would show up)

  3. ---EDIT--

    Sorry missread.. you are right.. I did not keep the structure and I missed that whole part

    this will keep the structure and place the files in a nice tgz for backup and restore

    find /home/huskeyw -name "*.gif" -print0 | xargs -0t tar --no-recursion -PSczf /tmp/find/gif.tgz

    you could untar it right after to get the same output, but its not one command

    find /home/huskeyw -name "*.gif" -print0 | xargs -0t tar --no-recursion -PSczf /tmp/find/gif.tgz;cd /tmp/find/;tar zxvf gif.tgz

    hope this helps someone.

    I left the original post so you can see what I was thinking.. also to point out.. that I feel like a dum A$$ after rereading you response..

    it works for me, but I put to copy to a folder not a file

    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp$ ls
    gconfd-huskeyw orbit-huskeyw seahorse-aoi2Cl Tracker-huskeyw.5990
    keyring-cYDBha pulse-huskeyw tmp.jZvSSS5741 virtual-huskeyw.uBgb8E

    note noting in tmp so we create a folder to put my gif files

    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp$ mkdir find

    now lets capture a list of all gif files I have in my home folder

    find /home/huskeyw/ -name "*.gif" -printf %f\\n
    find: /home/huskeyw/.ssh: Permission denied

    sorry I have lots of gif files, but its a mass example :)

    now lets copy the gif files to a tmp folder

    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp$ find /home/huskeyw/  -name "*.gif" -exec cp {} /tmp/find/ \;
    find: /home/huskeyw/.ssh: Permission denied

    now lets look at what we got

    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp$ cd /tmp/find/

    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp/find$

    so I don't know what does not work, to copy all files from one place to another.. it does not keep diretory structure because we are not worring about that or else we would have to keep them

    note that duplactes are not coped..

    also once you ran this command you can use the --update for the copy command to only update the backup folder

    find /home/huskeyw/ -name "*.gif" -exec cp --update {} /tmp/find/ \;

    also we could be more useful and tar up the results

    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp/find$ ls
    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp/find$
    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp/find$ find /home/huskeyw -name "*.gif" -print0 | xargs -0t tar --no-recursion -PSczf /tmp/find/gif.tgz
    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp/find$ ls
    gif.tgz

    I skipped all the output from the find/ you will find this did keep all my directroy structue so it can be restored

    afer doing a tar zxvf on gif.tgz

    I get

    huskeyw@ubuntu-laptop:/tmp/find$ ls

    gif.tgz home

    and my whole structure is there..

  4. at work we have contest to see who can make a script smaller. the ideal is to take a working multi line script or set of commands and make it as small as possible

    here is a one liner for the mp3 move

    find $SOURCEFOLDER -name "*.mp3" -exec cp {} $DESTINATION \;

    if you are at the root of your home folder put a . for the source folder to get all mp3 files no matter where in home they may be.

  5. need more information

    video card type and the what are the two monitors..

    I have seen this happen when the resolution chosen for the second monitor is incorrect.

    choose a low resolution for the second monitor then try again.. then if that works, increase it by one setting until it stops working. then you will know the max resolution that both the monitor and video card will do together.

    just because a video card can put out a resolution and the monitor can accept the resolution, it does not mean in dual monitor mode the card can put out a signal the monitor will like at that resolution.

  6. or use something like openVPN to create a tunnel and routing gateway for your VNC connection.

    as for VNC not working at all on VISTA, I have realVNC working with the video driver and using Chicken of the VNC for Mac to connect.

    try rdesktop.. it works a little better for windows.. unless you need to see someone elses login.

  7. ko, I am getting the source tree, it seams that libjingle was made part of the main brach, when I have it tested and done I will create a .deb so you can use apt to install, I will need tester to make sure I did not introduce non standard Ubuntu libs..

  8. ok, why not use the google talk gadget? http://www.google.com/talk/otherclients.html

    this seams to work with my ubuntu out of the box and no software to install, you loose voice calls to other users, but you only get that if you gave the Google talk client and Google only made that work with windows.

    I find it strange that they limited the gadget, its there choice, they could have made it do all the same things..

    Sorry jeff, after looking this up I don't not see how this is a linux issues..

    The issue with PSI is just bad packaging, that a lot of, and I mean a lot of projects are guilty of.

    just look at the universal linux install for mono, simple

    or the install for skype or even firefox, all easy, crossover office is even better.

    why others can not be bothered is beyond me, except its Free, and Free comes at a cost sometimes.. but once you get free working.. most of the time it is as good or better than payed..

    the universal installer project tried to fix this issue, but since there is not one person that linux distributions listen to as a whole, everyone gets to do it there own way, which is kind of the American Way (or Burger king but why go there) so again its Americas (United States America) fault again..

    but thanks to sites like your, people can come and get help with these issues, which I must say have been very few and far for any real questions.. no like 3 years ago when if you missed the board for a day, there were at least 5 new questions..

    thanks for the site Jeff and we will keep trying to help..

  9. X has always been a issue on the desktop, this effects not just linux, but BSD and other UNIX flavors.

    I am waiting on Red Hat/IBM/HP to fix the issues, but they want to stay away from the desktop, and the head on with microsoft, and compete with the server side where MS is not as deep.

    This is also why LDAP and Fedora directory sever is so hard to use. they have it to have something, but don't bother competing with AD.

  10. I try, I really try to use Linux but things like this just...urgh. I couldn't do anything, completely locked up.

    :) LOL, That happens to me all the time in windows.. :(

    I have seen ubuntu completely lockup, but I have yet to lock my Gentoo box once unless I do a kernel Panic..

    the thread is down for maintenance.. so I'll look at it tonight..

    what did you do for dual monitor this time?

    I should be home in the next hour, go to the gym, put kids in bead.. I'll find you an answer,

    but I don't miss the point that me looking for answers makes this any better for you.

    but I'll give you a story that may help the frustration if you think about it..

    my wife who has used nothing but windows for, well lets says since the first version as there is no need to give out age. :)

    she has used Firefox well before it was called firefox..

    last year I bought her a Mac and she has been using it , even though the differences frustrater her. but she uses it everyday, and everyday there are less complaints. until yesterday, she goes to my laptop running ubuntu and goes to show me a web site that is not working on the Mac, it says it needs a plug in but not which one, so in my firefox she goes to open a tab. after 15 min she complains that linux is too hard for her to use and walks off. I see on the screen about 50 open terminals, so I wonder what she did. turns out she was hitting ALT-T to open a tab, but in my system that opens a terminal. when asked why she was hitting alt-t instead of ctrl-t she showed me, on the Mac the apple key is in the same place as the alt on most keyboards. and on the apple you hit apple-t to open a new tab..

    so for most cases of it's too hard I see that its just different..

    your issues are diffrent in that they do not work, but for most, its not too hard, just too different.

  11. I found that dual monitors works great with DVI monitors. no editing just use the gui and set it, you have to restart X (ctrl-alt-backspace if your like me or logout if you need to do it correctly)

    VGA monitors I had lots of issues, but they turned out to be the profiles for the monitors were wrong..

    also different size monitors is an issue.. for those instead of doing xenarama I had it do a new server on each screen, you can't drag apps from one screen to the next, but you can start them on the different screens..

    what were the problems with Google talk? I have not tested it, but I am thinking it was issues with the Mic, I 'll be glad to look into it...

    also Marty has raised the issue on how to install software (where to find it)

    I am not sure what happened to his firefox, as it comes pre-installed. but under System->Administration there is Synaptic that let you search for and install packages..

    I use almost exclusivity Ubuntu on my desktop and use NX to get to it at work.

    what I need from windows is sharpdevelop. Monodevelop just sucks and I need for work to compile in Mono and .Net

    everything else I do from ubuntu.

    Audio well is done from the Mac.

    I'll play with google talk and see what it takes to set that up, this is not the mixing of audio we talked about before is it?

  12. I believe that issue has been fixed. I have been running 7.10 for a while now and with no changes, I have not seen the issue. it was with Hitachi drives, and I did not understand it much, Hitachi stated that the drives would be damaged, but powersave was using the setting in the FW of the Hitachi drive.. so it was there drives that had the issue...

    http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=381...p;postcount=489

  13. I remember doing this in solars (and sun OS), but I could not even begin to know how to do this for windows.

    I guess you can use linux...

    here is a how to

    http://martybugs.net/linux/image.cgi

    ackup the Partition Table

    To backup the partition table to a file, we can use dd as follows:

    dd if=/dev/hda of=/mnt/hdc1/my-hda.mbr count=1 bs=512

    Linux treats a filesystem or a partition as a file, and the syntax above specifies the input file to be the /dev/hda partition, and the output file is a file on our target HDD. The other parameters specify that only a single block should be copied, and we're forcing the filesize to be 512 bytes.

    The output filename is arbitrary, so give it a suitable name that indicates which HDD it relates to. A ".mbr" file extension indicates it contains details relating to the master boot record.

    Backup Extended Partition Information

    If you have any extended partitions on the HDD being imaged, the details of the extended partitions can be saved as follows:

    sfdisk -d /dev/hda > /mnt/hdc1/my-hda.sf

    This will dump the partition table contents into the file we specify, in a format suitable for easily rebuilding the partition table.

    Again, the output filename is arbitrary, so use a suitable filename.

    to restore

    # se dd to restore the partition table (dd if=/mnt/hdc1/my-hda.mbr of=/dev/hda)

    # use sfdisk to restore the extended partition information (sfdisk /dev/hda < /mnt/hdc1/my-hda.sf)

  14. sorry, unless someone else has an answer, you can also try the windows forum.. they are also smart..

    its a shame the NTFS schema is so undocumented.. it has taken years just to read and write to it.

    there are some recovery tools that should allow you to grab data off the disk, but since I normally just wipe and forget..

  15. we like noob's

    ok..

    forget the Virtual machine part, on latter look it seams that only VMware workstation lets you mount a real drive...

    so if you have another windows box, then a great tool all computer people need is a IDE or sata to usb adaptor

    since you have sata drives this is my favourite http://www.crazypc.com/products/blacx-95470.html

    plug in the adaptor into the other machine, and plug in the hardrive. windows should see the drive if not.. then you how important is the data on the drive?

    Note: you do not need to worry about virus on a second drive if you do not run any software from the drive..

    right click on the drive and run check disk for errors..

    this should fix the issues..

    now assuming all is good with the drive then you can try to run WinClam to look for viruses..

    if the harddrive is 2 or more years old, it may just be a bad harddrive and not a virus..

  16. I know how to take strait arguments into C# but I am writing a console application that I would like to add agrumnets like -f or -F and a space then the agrgument

    so it would look like a good unix command :)

    example

    command mydile.txt -p C:\user\username -l

    my thought is to treat the flag as an argument then read the next one for the value ..

    but I am not sure if there is a better way, as I can see this getting complex.. depending on how much the tool can do..

  17. it looks like you have some disk errror.

    the bad news is that you need to chkdisk from a windows (same version that formated)

    this is because NTFS is not documented from microsoft and all of the Linux drivers are created by hacking the drive..

    now you can use vmware or virtual box to host the windows and tell it that its disk is a real partition..

    you can for fun run ntfsfix on /dev/sda1 and on /dev/sda2

  18. it should run like this

    stevelinux ~ # fdisk -l /dev/hda

    Disk /dev/hda: 30.7 GB, 30750031872 bytes

    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3738 cylinders

    Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

    Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System

    /dev/hda1 * 1 10 80293+ 83 Linux

    /dev/hda2 11 141 1052257+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris

    /dev/hda3 142 3738 28892902+ 83 Linux

    stevelinux ~ #

    but yours would be sda not hda
