How can you start up Ion3?
I installed Ion by apt-get.
I have the exec ion in my .xinitrc.
I get
>> Unable to redirect root window events for screen 0.
>> Refusing to start due to encountered errors.
The command loadkeys dvorak '' ctrl:nocaps fires errors, apparently due to no sudo access, such as kdskbent: operation not permitted. The command dpkg-reconfigure is not permitted. How can I manually change the keyboard layout in console?
I use Gmail and Mac's Mail for emails.
It seems that you can use git am only with a terminal's Mail in OS X/Ubuntu.
I apparently need to set up my ~/.mailrc such that
# gmail account
account gmail {
set from="[email protected] (Masi Masi)"
set sendmail="/usr/bin/msmtp"
set message-sendmail-extra-arguments="-a gmail"
}
I run
mail [email protected]
I get
Unknown command: "account"
How can you use Gmail for Mail such that I get my mails' patches to git am?
I am looking for suggestions for video editing programs like iMovie, which are dead simple to use. We just need basic editing and titling features for making videos of our kids slightly more watchable. Nothing too fancy. The major requirement is that it needs to be extremely easy to use even without prior editor experience.
We're running Windows XP on some machines and Vista the rest.
Free is preferred however ease-of use trumps price.
Using Windows XP on a Thinkpad. When I type ipconfig in the run command line prompt, the windows appears briefly and then disappears without me doing anything (and before I can read anything). Does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?
Thanks,

I tested several times, running using different internet browser (IE, FF, Chrome, Safari and Opera), none of those getting 8080. Recently I got some complaints from my users, saying my website giving errors:[my website ip]:8080 error. What is that error? And how do I resolve it?
Hello,
how can one tell which resources (FS, process etc....) are part of a specific cluster configuration? IE: after logging in to the global zone, how can I identify the resources that are running under cluster monitoring?

I am using a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.5. I am new to this development environment, and previously worked on Windows.
Could anyone recommend an easy to use GUI based and free FTP client for my platform?
Thanks in advance.
I'm curious how USB device recognition works in Windows. I imagine it's something like this:
When you plug in a device, it tells Windows "here's my device ID to tell you what I am"
Windows looks to see if any drivers have been installed that match that device ID. The driver probably tells Windows what the device should be called - like "BlackBerry Curve" or "Canon Printer"
If so, it somehow associates that device with that driver
Otherwise, it looks for a matching driver online (if you let it)
Am I right? If so, that still leaves some questions.
When you install drivers, where do they go? Are they files in a folder, or do they get added to the registry?
What is Windows doing when it first recognizes the device, thinks, and finally says "your new device is installed and ready to use?"
Where does Windows look for missing drivers? Is it in their own database? Do device manufacturers submit drivers to Microsoft for inclusion there?
Can anybody explain how this process really works? Also, do other OSes do this differently?
I am using Red Hat Linux Enterprise 5. I know the theory that -- using export to set environment variable, the environment variable will apply to current and child environment, but without using export to set environment variable, the environment variable will only apply to the current environment.
My confusion is, what is the exact definition of "child environment" and "current environment"? For example,
$ var1=123
$ echo "Hello [$var1]"
the value of var1 (which is 123) is printed in shell, but I think echo is a command invoked by current shell, and it (the echo command) should be a child environment of current shell and the value of var1 should not (because not using export var1=123) impact echo. Any comments?
Thanks in advance!

I have tried when select a file (e.g. a ppt file on desktop), then I press Delete key on keyboard. The file is not deleted (seems no effect). How to delete a file from keyboard?
Thanks in advance.
I'm rather new to this, and I'd like to play with administering a linux box.
Things I need to know how to do:
Setup subdomains
Setup FTP accounts
Setup full domains / add domains
MySQL setup / install / management
LAMP setup / install / management
This is probably going on a CentOS distro. I'd like links or a break down on how I can learn to do this. I am comfortable with a command line, but I'm trying to move from shared hosting to a VPS and would like to have some idea on how deep the water is before I do.
I am using a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.5. I am new to this development environment, and previously worked on Windows.
I am wondering how to create a shortcut for applications or documents on desktop? Just like "show on desktop" feature on Windows?
Thanks in advance.
Using php, how might I redirect all pages under a folder to a different domain?
Current site:
http://www.example.org/dept
http://www.example.org/dept/stuff
http://www.example.org/dept/more
http://www.example.org/dept/more/stuff
New site:
http://www.example-too.org/pets/stuff
http://www.example-too.org/pets/more
http://www.example-too.org/pets/more/stuff
I've learned about how to redirect a single page:
<?
Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
Header( "Location: http://www.example-too.org/pets/more/stuff" );
?>
but how to apply this to dozens of pages without creating a php redirect for each one? I can't do this using apache mod_rewrite and .htaccess is disabled.
thanks.

Hi there,
Got a heads up from stackoverflow.com to ask the question here.
I'm going through the matplotlib documentation and prepared to use the iPython interactive Python shell with ipython -pylab. However I get this:
MBP:~ Me$ ipython -pylab
-bash: ipython: command not found
Did I fail to install iPython? I used easy_install as advised.
Any ideas?
Update
Thought I'd just say that I found the iPython "executable" in /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin after doing a Spotlight search.
Still a little confused as to what to do.
Hi,
This is a follow-up of this question: Rewrite URL - how to get the hostname and the path?
And a copy of this: mod_rewrite RewriteRule is not working
I got this Rewrite Rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(http://[-A-Za-z0-9+&@#/%=~_|!:,.;]*)/([-A-Za-z0-9+&@#/%=~_|!:,.;]*)\?([A-Za-z0-9+&@#/%=~_|!:,.;]*)$ http://http://www.xmldomain.com/bla/$2?$3&rtype=xslt&xsl=$1/$2.xsl
it seems to be correct, and exactly what I need. But it doesn't work on my server. I get a 404 page not found error.
mod_rewrite is enabled, as the following simple rule is working fine:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^page/([^/\.]+)/?$ index.php?page=$1 [L]
Can you help?
Thanks
Hello everyone,
I am using Windows 7 and I have a big text file (log file) which needs to be splitted into small files. Any good tool to use? I prefer to use line based split tool if available. It is better free and easy to use.
thanks in advance,
George
I have this strange problem, how exactly does control + enter decides the domain of a website??
If i type stackoverflow,then hit control+enter, it works and takes to homepage, but i type ubuntuforums,
then hit control + enter, it does not recognise its ubuntuforums.org, but goes to ubuntuforums.com??
How does this exactly work? If i need to change this behaviour, how should i do it?
What is the purpose of the following command?
sudo echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger
I run it, but I can see no difference in the magic key and its output at dmesg.
Trigger suggests me that the databases of sysrq are involved in the process.
So I was thinking about viruses recently, and wondering how exactly antiviruses keep up?
Considering anybody who'd been coding for a few weeks could hack together something do do nasty, nasty things to somebody's PC, the quantity alone would make a simple list of hashes prohibitive, so how do antiviruses do it? Do they monitor process activity and have a 3 strikes rule for doing virus-like things? And if so, what's stopping it from triggering on perfectly harmless things (like me moving files around in \system32)?
I did a bit of googling, but the regular places didn't particularly help, and I couldn't find a dupe here, so I thought it'd be good to ask :)
I'm just learning to use sftp, and I want to copy a directory from the remote computer to my local computer. If I try
get [directory]
it gives me this error:
Cannot download non-regular file: /home/mpirocch/Documents
get -R doesn't work, either.
I'd like to create a video file from 3 sources mixed: audio file, video file and slides. Could you recommend me a tool? I must say I have no experience in video edition.
Hey guys.
I've just installed Ubuntu 10.04, trying out linux for the first time. I'm wondering if it's possible to link my documents folder in Ubuntu to my documents folder in Windows, so that when I open the folder in Ubuntu, I am linked to the folder in Windows.
Any ideas?
