I think I found the problem. I ran the command to install Perl but it Failed. I'll google around on this issue for a while. Edit: At some point while following a tutorial, I created a Perl folder. That screwed up the Perl install. Deleted the folder, things are starting to move forward! Dr. Arbitrary fucked around with this message at 19:17 on Feb 13, 2015 |

I'm not sure if this is a *nix problem or a PuTTY problem, so I'll start here. I'm using PuTTY to remote in to a school server and do some stuff. Normally this works fine on my computers, but I'm using one in my lab at school, and I'm seeing strange behavior (and I just checked on my laptop and I'm seeing the same weird poo poo, so *shrug*). The problem is that I can't edit commands, either ones that I'm in the middle of typing or if I use the up arrow to go back. I could swear I used to be able to have a command at the prompt, move the cursor, and edit there. Now if I try that, it's almost like I'm using vim; for instance, if I press 's', that will first delete a character, then start inserting 's's at the cursor. 'a' will move the cursor right. What the hell is going on and how can I get regular command prompt behavior back?

I don't remember exactly what but I do remember having to change something when I started using byobu.

The shell is tcsh; I emailed the system manager and he said he'd look into it, since it doesn't happen on a different server.

In tcsh you enable vi-editing mode with "bindkey -v", and disable it with "bindkey -e". See if that helps.

It's simpler to maintain long-term than Archlinux, and you have more customization over more aspects of your system. It's actually able to be a desktop and server OS, unlike Arch which can only be a desktop and not a server, and it's generally a bit easier to compile from source than distros like Debian, Ubuntu, etc. Gentoo has its strengths. It's an awesome distro; you have to want to use Gentoo. If you don't like the ideas behind the distro, don't use it. nosl fucked around with this message at 17:59 on Feb 16, 2015 |

Quick stupid question: Im using Mint 15 (with KDE) in this PC where I had an ATI video card that died, so I switched to the motherboard integrated graphics (Intel). Everthing is working fine, except video: I cant play video files, on any player. I suppose its because mint is still using the ATI drivers. How can I switch to the intel ones? I know they are installed, but I cant determine if they are being used.

I've downloaded the Debian unstable mini.iso installer and I can install SID just fine when I burn it to a USB key. But I want to be able to be able to put the iso file onto a USB key with a preseed file on the same key and boot with preseed. I'm able to boot into the installer but when it goes to detect the iso it can't find it on the USB key. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but is anyone else installing Debian this way? How can I get mini.iso to be detected? This has been racking my brain, my grub config for the iso is below: iso='mini,iso' menuentry "$iso" { set iso="/$iso" set preseed='/hd-media/preseed-work.cfg' loopback loop $iso linux /boot/grub/debian/vmlinuz file=$preseed iso-scan/filename=$iso locale=en_US keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap=us languagechooser/language-name=English countrychooser/shortlist=US initrd /boot/grub/debian/initrd.gz }
