I've tried using xfs_check and it just returns a message saying that there are entries in the log that need relaying and that you need to run xfs_repair -L where "-L" option deletes…

I want to configure the same user account across multiple operating systems. Right now, I'm set up for general use in Mac OS 10.6.6 "Snow Leopard," and I have about 200gb of files in my home directory (/Users/justjake/). I want to use this user (and home directory) for other operating systems on other partitions. For example, I have Mac…
I was dual-booting with Windows 7 and Windows Vista each taking up half of my hard drive. In Windows 7 I used Easeus Partition Manager to shrink my Windows 7 volume 8GB. On the unallocated space, I installed Linux Mint 8 RC1. After a little bit of playing around with it, I booted in Windows 7, used EPM again and deleted the 8GB Linux…

Recently when I have turned my Macbook on it boots up fine however it is completely unresponsive after loading everything for several minutes.…
My Canon camera produces files like IMG_1234.JPG and MVI_1234.AVI. It also timestamps those files. Unfortunately during a trip to another timezone several cameras were used, one of which did not have the correct time zone set - meta data mess.. Now I would like to correct this.
Proposed algorithm:
1 read file's modify date
2 add…

Hi,
I know that the date -s <STRING> command sets the time described by the string STRING.
What i want is to log the above command whenever it is used to set the time into the file /tmp/log/user.log.
In my Linux distribution the logging is done by syslog-ng. I already have some logs going into /tmp/log/user.log.

Will booting from a Live CD (I was thinking Anonym OS) have any risk to the native OS? I wanted to try it out on my school´s computer, but I´d rather not have to explain why I accidentally reformatted the HD and deleted everything.. I know once you´ve booted the right way, it shouldn´t leave any trace on the HD, but is it…
I have got two (2) Juniper routers J4350 that are out of order :
All the interfaces are down (leds on the interfaces don't ligthen, ping dosen't respond)

I've tried to reset the router (holding the RESET CONFIG button on the front panel during 15 seconds) and nothing…
I waited until this morning to install these 5 updates. My ancient Win XP (32 bit) PC has no problems but my Win XP 64 bit will not start.
From the startup menu none of the 5 options given (e.g. safe mode, last known good configuration, etc) work.
After selecting an option, the Windows Logo screen appears. About 9…

I have a Macbook pro Quad core (2.2/8gb ram/750gb hdd). I have went through tons of forums on the Internet, but none of them seemed to be updated for the current Backtrack 5R1, or the question of getting it to correctly work on the MBP. Can anyone help?
I don’t have a USB Dongle, and I want to be…
My 12.04 system hangs at "Checking battery state". At this stage, no commands work eg: ctrl+alt+f1, alt+f5. I ran recovery mode, I ran the command
sudo mount -o remount, rw
sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
and gdm was the only one installed so I didn't get a GUI screen. I have an integrated graphics…

I have a laptop dual booting to Windows 7 and Opensuse 11.2. However, I'd like to switch to a different Linux distro (probably Ubuntu, that's what I'm used to)
Is there a way for me to do it without losing the Windows 7 setup/data?
I'm looking into getting the Seagate Momentus XT hybrid hard drive, and I'm planning on dual booting between Windows 7 and Windows XP. I know 7 and Vista have native support for taking advantage of the SSD portion of a hybrid drive, and I assume XP does not have any such support, but will XP…
I've got a laptop that has a broken harddisk controller. Replacing the motherboard is quite expensive. I thought about buying a flash drive and installing & running the system from it.
However, I'm concerned about some things.

I'm looking to install Lubuntu 10.04 onto my flash drive to test it out without the risk of altering my system which runs Windows 7. I think I need what is called a "persistant install", so that Lubuntu will run off of my flash drive and any changes made will stay there, unlike the demo…
I recently put Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on my wife's Macbook pro because of some software she bought for her business. Since then, the battery life has been abysmal.
I've identified and researched one of the problems, which is display brightness. There is no brightness control in the…
Here's the deal:
