Supersonic posted:Gonna try re-installing Arch and hope that works. Good thing that this is only a playing around machine and not production. This is why I don't like running Arch on my production machines. Not to be a jerk, but why rebuild a machine for problems with X? Unless you have significant package manager issues (trampled/broken packages causing missing libraries or something) I can't see a reason for a full reinstall. I always thought that was the beauty of it all, not having to reinstall because one single package was misbehaving. I haven't had any troubles with xorg-server-1.5, myself. I've been on it since I built this machine (G45 chipset woes). I also run without a xorg.conf, so I think I'm in a minority... Also, the instructions Zom Aur is referring to appears to be just a link to this: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg_input_hotplugging Which makes me think it's less of an xorg-server 1.5 issue and an Arch default options issue. GuyGizmo posted:I could, but I want to avoid ls if at all possible. The size in memory of a list of the full paths of every file in this folder could be over a gigabyte. I would estimate that at least 2 million of the files have a path that's longer than 130 characters. You do realize piping doesn't fully produce the output of the first program before it starts the second, right? They're run in parallel, so the actual amount of memory used is just a buffer for pumping data between the two. You shouldn't be afraid of trying "find dir | wc -l" just to see how long it will take. It does seem like piping is inefficient, but I think it may be "efficient enough" that a better tool for the job hasn't been created. If you don't believe me, consider using pipes that never stop producing output. If you do "cat /dev/urandom | od", you will see the octal dump of random data stream by. No waiting, no extreme memory usage.

GuyGizmo posted:I always wondered about that. It seems liked sometimes it would work that way and sometimes not. So what the hell, I'll give 'find /path | wc -l' a try and see how it does. Hopefully it won't take 8 hours to finish. Let me know how fast it is and what file system you are using. I'm really curious about what the best way to go about manipulating huge folders in linux is because it seems like theres no GUI software thats not prohibitively slow at dealing with huge folders. I'm curious as to whether its because I'm using JFS or if its just an inherent failing of linux compared to windows xp which doesn't seem to choke on the same folders.

What's the Mana and iLo aliases on eth0? You seem to have a pretty weird network setup here. COMPUTER isn't being resolved at all from the DNS server? What is COMPUTER's ip address suppose to be? You mentioned 192.168.1.10 before but that doesn't appear to be setup anywhere.

I wouldn't usually re-install a system because of an X problem, but what was happening to me was that GDM was loading on boot, and X would disable my mouse and keyboard, thus preventing me from being able to get to a virtual console or runlevel 3 (and ending the X session). I could've probably used a live CD and then edited /etc/rc.conf to disable GDM from loading, but I didn't think of this until it was too late. I didn't have any data on the machine since its a playing around machine, so I didnt mind taking 15 mins to re-install Arch. I also tried the Xorg hotplugging fix, but it still didn't work. I'm going to try a few more things, and I'll post what I did if I get a fix.

Puck42 posted:What's the Mana and iLo aliases on eth0? OK, before I was being vague, because I didn't want my IP addresses being braodcased on the internets for the haxzors. The above is the correct info. No asked for the details and I fubared it up. Let me start from scratch. The Linux Box IP is 172.16.1.251 [Alias IPs 172.16.0.251 and 192.168.0.251] (NAGIOS) My windows box IP is 172.16.1.250 [Alias IPs 172.16.0.250 and 192.168.0.250](nv-monitor.shroe.local) I have management networks for switches and access points (Mana - ifconfig cuts off the rest) and iLO (Integrated Lights out cards) for my backup network. My Intrnal DNS IPs are 172.16.1.11 and 172.16.1.224 (2003 and 2008 resectively) On NAGIOS I can ping by IP on all subnets but not by DNS Name, with or without the full domain suffix. On NAGIOS I can do a NSLOOKUP and resolve everything using my 2 DNS servers. On NAGIOS I can do a tracetoute and it resolves target name with the suffix. code:

But still doesn't make any sense about why your DNS would work fine for traceroute but not ping. Could you try editing your resolv.conf so that the search entry is like this: search shroe.local and if that doesn't work try removing it completely and see if you can ping nv-monitor.shroe.local

I upgraded Xorg last night by accident. did a pacman -Syud thinking it would only download and not install. But it did it anyways. I had an issue with X not starting, but that was because I used -d in pacman so it didn't install a dependency of the ati driver it upgraded. After installing the missing package, it started up just fine. touchpad didn't work properly, but that was becaused evdev was missing so I installed that. There are quirks with the keyboard I need to fix, but otherwise it's working fine.

Well I threw in the towel after a few hours of trying to get Xorg fixed, and went to Debian Lenny. I love the bleeding edge aspect of Arch, but so many times I've gotten things broken from a simple system upgrade like I did with Xorg this time. Debian hasn't failed me yet (I run etch on a production server I and its rock solid). I've got Synergy running on it, so now I just need to decide if I want to run AwesomeWM (tiling window manager) or Fluxbox.

This is a stupid question because i know ive done it before, but how do you get a listing of the file name when you do a CAT or LESS. Like right now the output on my screen is: $cat *.log | grep 13:45:17 13:45:17.994: TMRespNotif|| 13:45:17.806: MsgSendInstOrdr||| 13:45:17.806: ProcSendInstOrdr||MsgSN Each of those results are from a different log file and Id like it to display something like: Logfile1.log 13:45:17.994: TMRespNotif|| Logfile2.log 13:45:17.806: MsgSendInstOrdr||| Logfile3.log 13:45:17.806: ProcSendInstOrdr||MsgSN So I can easily find and compare. I know ive done this before I just cant remember. Thanks
