Is there anyway I acheive the same thing as "next" from perl in bash?

code:

#!/bin/bash

if [ $# > 0 ];then
    cwd=$(pwd)
    for dir in $@;do
        cd $dir
        echo "::${dir}::"
        if [ -z $(command ls) ] 2>/dev/null;then
            echo "empty"
            ###here I need the same thing as "next" in perl###
        fi
        du -s * | sort -n | cut -f 2- | while read a;do du -hs "$a";done
        cd "$cwd"
    done
else
    du -s * | sort -n | cut -f 2- | while read a;do du -hs "$a";done
fi

Because you're making a copy of the file. It's the same as if you were making a copy of a read-only file on the hard disk.

Seriously, what kind of question is that?

Because Windows doesn't do it that way, and it's annoying to have to reset permissions when I'm restoring something from disc backup?

Difference in philosophies, perhaps. Windows assumes that if all you wanted to do was work with a RO file you'd just leave it on RO media.

Embarrassingly obvious! Thanks.

anyone mind helping with a hibernate issue in Arch? When i start hibernation it goes through all the steps, then turns off, then back on immediately. It's rather bizarre, suspend to ram (sleep) works just fine.

Here's the relevant portions of the log:

/var/log/pm-suspend.log

code:

/usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/98smart-kernel-video hibernate hibernate: not applicable.
/usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/99video hibernate hibernate: success.
Wed Nov 12 17:36:36 PST 2008: performing hibernate

/usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/99video thaw hibernate: success.

/usr/lib/pm-utils/pm-functions: Line 266-277 275 marked with @@@

quote:

if [ -z "$HIBERNATE_MODULE" ] && \
[ -f /sys/power/disk ] && \
grep -q disk /sys/power/state; then
HIBERNATE_MODULE="kernel"
do_hibernate()
{
[ -n "${HIBERNATE_MODE}" ] && \
grep -qw "${HIBERNATE_MODE}" /sys/power/disk && \
echo -n "${HIBERNATE_MODE}" > /sys/power/disk
echo -n "disk" > /sys/power/state @@@
}
fi

The contents of /sys/power/disk:

[platform] test testproc shutdown reboot

I haven't much of a clue as to why it won't hibernate, It was worked before, just decided to stop without much warning, this is on a thinkpad t42. If anyone knows what could be causing it or what else I should check, please let me know!

kernel.log is often helpful.

I wasn't on the computer so I grabbed all that from random irc logs I had available, here's what I believe is the portion of kernel.log related to it:

I have a stupid easy Ubuntu question.

I'm running fog (Free Opensource Ghost) on an ubuntu machine. I finally ran out of space on the hard drive for images, so I attached an external USB drive and formatted it as EXT3. I then copied the images folder over from the main hard drive to the external one, and directed the fog software to the new directory.

Well, apparently the permissions didnt come over with the folders, and I get access denied everywhere. when I try to use the imaging software.

If its as simple as recopying the files with permissions attached, how do I do that?

Or, if I need to reassign permissions, how can I find out if there is a specific fog user, and how can I copy the permissions for it from the old folder to the new one?

chmod and chown both take a --reference=file but that's overkill if you're just recovering a set of homogenous files -- you should be able to eye up the owner/group and unix perms and fix them up directly.

hard to argue that world-readable isn't okay for the images seeing as how they're already on removable media.

code:

sudo chmod o+rw filename

Edit: I just realized that you may be asking how to get to "filename" on the external drive?

If so, you can check in /mount

if you don't see it there, then you can do this:

code:

sudo mkdir /mount/usb

then

code:

mount /dev/sdb1 /mount/usb

Assuming that your external drive is represented by /dev/sdb1

If it isn't, then you can use:

code:

dmesg | more

and near the end it will have info on the mount point for your USB drive

you could then chmod your files as above:

code:

sudo chmod o+rw /mount/usb/filename

GTK File chooser dialogue boxes recently started displaying thumbnails. They do this even in list view where the thumbnails are maybe 10x10 pixels. Really useful!

Anyway, I would love to turn off these thumbnails. Is there some way to do this? On directories with lots of images the thumbnail generation will sometimes stop all other activity for ten seconds or more.

I've installed Ubuntu on my laptop (MSI Wind), but apparently there aren't working wireless drivers for the original card, so I think I'm just going to wipe the ubuntu partition and go back to XP.

I'm dual-booting right now, so what's the cleanest way to just clear out the partition without messing up the boot menu or anything? I'm kind of new to the whole linux thing, so feel free to talk to me like a baby.

Probably a bad idea, but:

echo "<? include('path/to/file.php'); ?>" >> $i
done

you can enter it as a line if you squish it I guess

for completeness, something like this might also work:

find . -exec sh -c "echo '<? include('\'path/to/file.php\''); ?>' >> {}" \;

Is your executable and shared object the same architecture (/usr/bin/file)? Try setting LD_DEBUG=all and paging through the output. Invoking your app under sudo and dropping LD_LIBRARY_PATH?

Note that PATH and working directory attempts are unlikely to work so might want to triple-check your LD_LIBRARY_PATH attempt.

I think for your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to be updated, you need to logout and login again. This may involve killing the X server.

It is always the same IP, and only on this name server. A quick google revealed that the error can sometimes happen if the connection goes down and comes back up. Ntpd will still think the connection is down and error out forever. I saw a post somewhere else saying that someone fixed it by having a cron job run every hour that restarts ntpd.

Restarting NTP every hour is just masking the problem.

The first thing to check is that your connection actually is solid. Run a one sec interval ping to the server until you see the error again, see if the problem is simple connectivity.

Check that the server and client's forward and reverse DNS is also resolving each other correctly.

Not really a question but a kind of funny occurrence: I used amarok before to organize and rename some mp3s on an NTFS partition in bulk. Theres a couple of songs that had question marks in the song title and amarok of course threw the question into the filename, causing windows to be completely unable to interact with the files as ? is a special character disallowed in filenames. Pretty funny glitch to come up. I wonder who you would file the bug report with, (if anyone): the ntfs driver people for allowing invalid filenames to be written on an ntfs partition in the first place, or the amarok people for letting the organizer rename files without respecting which characters aren't allowed in filenames for that file system?

Find httpd.conf and see what your actual document root is.

It could be a permissions issue, usually Apache has it's own user so check that that user is able to read the file.
