I want to use ubuntu and preferably standard packages such as ffmpeg to rotate a 3gp video by 90 degrees in any direction. Preferably a command line or python script.
i have installed rkhunter on ubuntu 10.04 LTS
when i try to test rkhunter report it doesn't send email to my external root email recipient.
i can send email only editing /etc/default/rkhunter by replacing this row
REPORT_EMAIL="root"
with the desired recipient
REPORT_EMAIL="[email protected]"
These are my config file settings:
/root/.forward
[email protected]
and /etc/aliases
root: [email protected]
But it doesn't work with root recipient.
Any suggestion?

My Macbook Pro already dual boots MacOSX or Ubuntu with ReFit. I would like to add Windows 7 in the mix. I can make enough space in the Mac partition to accomodate that, but just want to be sure the Windows installation is not going to wipe out anything and I will still be able to access both OS.
Anything else to watch out for is welcome.
(Sorry for not posting a question about an actual problem, but I figured that when I have a problem, it will just be too late).
Related: Use Synaptics Touchpad Scroll in VMware Guest
I've read that it's not possible to enable multitouch in vmware guest.
What confuses me, is that when I use something special (like two finger scroll) in guest OS, I can see the cursor change to the scrolling one.
Is this some kind of virtualization bug or is there a possibility that I can enable multitouch in guest?
Host: Windows 7
Guest: Ubuntu 12.04
I have the following line of code that I use to update my personal date variable in my projects to today's current date. This line works in Ubuntu's terminal, but the Mac terminal seems to be far behind. Unfortunately, I copied this snippet from some site, so I'm not sure how it exactly works. Suggestions?
grep -ilr --exclude=revar.sh --exclude=README.md "[DATE]" * |
grep -v .git | xargs -i@ sed -i "s/\[DATE\]/${today}/g" @

I am currently using ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop , the model of my wireless chip is broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY . I tried to activate the driver for the chip by clicking menu bar System - Administration - Additional Drivers . and activated Broadcom STA wireless driver.
But the laptop can't detect any wireless signal still.
Do I have to do any additional work to make the chip work ? Or how can I test if there is physical damage to the chip itself
Is there a way for me to review cpu or memory usage on my ubuntu linux server? I've noticed my server (lamp set up) being slow at times, but by the time I log in as root and run a PS command, everything may have returned to normal.
It would be great to review a log of what resources different parts of the server consumed.
Okay. I installed apache2 and php on my Ubuntu 10.04 machine. I copied the phpmyadmin files to /var/www/phpmyadmin so that the hierarchy looks like this:
-var (755)
-www (144)
-phpmyadmin (644)
-index.php... etc. (644)
-index.html (644)
The numbers in brackets are the permissions. What permissions should the phpmyadmin folder have? What am I doing wrong?
I'm experimenting with creating a software RAID 0 device from 4 EBS volumes on Ubuntu 9.10 running at Amazon AWS following this guide:
http://alestic.com/2009/06/ec2-ebs-raid
The device appears (and according to SysBench is 3.5x faster than a regular attached EBS volume).
Problem is, when I reboot the instance, all files on the RAID device are gone. The device is available and mounted where expected, but contains no files. I am able to write new files to it, which survive until the next reboot.
I currently have a laptop with Windows Vista, and I'd like to upgrade to Windows 7 and also install Ubuntu Linux as dual boot. I need to make disk partitions used by Windows smaller to make room for Linux.
What is easiest way to upgrade? Should I resize Vista partition first to make room for linux installation, or should I upgrade first to Windows 7 and resize partitions after upgrade.
I've got Dropbox installed on both my Windows7 machine and my Ubuntu machine. I've got "Enable LAN sync" ticked on both. However it doesn't seem to be syncing via the LAN. Is it possible to sync across a LAN across different OSs with Dropbox?
I've just installed an Ubuntu Lucid 64bit image (from Stacklet) as a Xen DomU, running under Xen 3.2.1 on Centos 5.2 64bit.
Everything is working fine, except my logs are flooded with:
/dev/hvc0: No such file or directory
I tried creating the device with mknod /dev/hvc0 c 229 0 but the message just changes to:
/dev/hvc0: cannot open as standard input: No such device or address
Any hint on what I could try? :(
Can someone point me to clear directions for a Dual-Boot system using Windows 7 on #1 SSD and Linux Ubuntu on SSD #2? And then configuring 2 HDD's in RAID 1 for Data (NTFS)? Clean Install all around. Or what other set-up would be preferable to achieve a similar goal?
I am new to linux. I do not have any knowledge on how to do anything on linux. I just got a new machine and successfully installed ubuntu onto it. The first thing I want to do is join the domain the rest of the computers are on. How do I do that. I tried googling it but all the results assume some sort of linux knowledge and I have none.
I have LAMP running in Ubuntu.
However, my files are located on a separate NTFS hard drive (/media/shared/mysite/).
going to http://localhost gives me a 403
how can i, securely, allow apache to read/write the NTFS disk?
'shared' is currently being mounted when system boots. here's the entry in fstab:
/dev/sda1 /media/shared ntfs-3g quiet,defaults,locale=en_US.utf8,umask=000 0 0
I use PHP's virtual() directive quite a lot on one of my sites, including central elements. This worked fine for the last ~10 years -- but after upgrading (or rather moving, as it is on a new machine) to Ubuntu 12.04 it somehow got broken.
Example setup (simplified)
To make it easier to understand, I simplify some things (contents). So say I need a HTML fragment like <P>For further instructions, please look <A HREF='foobar'>here</P> in multiple pages. 10 years ago, I used SSI for that, so it is put into a file in a central place -- so if e.g. the targeted URL changes, I only need to update it in one place. To serve multiple languages, I have Apache's MultiViews enabled -- and at $DOCUMENT_ROOT/central/ there are the files:
foobar.html (English variant, and the default)
foobar.html.de (German variant).
Now in the PHP code, I simply placed:
<? virtual("/central/foobar"); ?>
and let Apache take care to deliver the correct language variant.
The problem
As said, this worked fine for about 10 years: German visitors got the German variant, all others the English (depending on their preferred language). But after upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04, it no longer worked: Either nothing was delivered from the virtual() command, or (in connection with framesets) it even ended up in binary gibberish.
Trying to figure out what happens, I played with a lot of things. I first thought MultiViews was (somehow) not available anymore -- but calling http://<server>/central/foobar showed the right variant, depending on the configured language preferences. This also proved there was nothing wrong with file permissions. The error.log gave no clues either (no error message thrown).
Finally, just as a "last ressort", I changed the PHP command to <? virtual("central/foobar.html"); ?> -- and that very same file was in fact included. So PHP's virtual() function basically worked -- but the language dependend stuff obviously did no longer work together with it as it did before.
Of course I tried to find some change (most likely in PHP's virtual() command), using Google a lot, and also searching the questions here -- unfortunately to no avail.
Finally: The question
Putting "design questions" aside (surely today I would design things differently -- but at least currently I miss the time to change that for a quite huge amount of pages): What can be done to make it work again? I surely missed something -- but I cannot figure out what...
I just installed Ubuntu. At the end, it tells me to keep away the CD and to restart.
After I restart it tells me:
searching for boot record form ide-0..not found
searching for boot record form cdrom..not found
root failure
press any key to continue
reboot or select proper boot device.
I have just one CD-ROM and one IDE hard drive.
Now we want to set up a private git repository in the ubuntu 12.10,then other developments can access it through the local network.
Now I just can create a repository use git init,for example:
cd myproject
git init
Which will create .git directory,but I do not know how to access it thougth network like:
git://192.168.1.1/myproject/.git
Any idea?
BTW,I have tried:
git init --bare
which will give me a error:
git add error : "fatal : malloc, out of memory"
