  • Getting vga_switcheroo with ATI Mobility Radeon 5650 HD to work

    - by stevejb
    Hello! I have a new HP dv7 laptop with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 graphics card, and also Intel graphics (switchable). I have done the following and want to understand what is going on with my graphics driver Resized windows 7 and did fresh install of 10.10 Booted into 10.10 and things seemed to be working okay Enabled ATI graphics, and was clearly working on the ATI rather than Intel GPU (desktop cube worked) Rebooted, got an error that modprobe could not load modules.dep, and also something about i915 symbols Rebooted into recovery mode, modified xorg.conf to remove the mention of fglrx Rebooted, and the errors show, but then x starts but clearly in intel graphics I would ideally like to be able to switch between the ATI and Intel graphics, a la vga_switcheroo. My first problem seems to be that the folder /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo does not exist, hinting at some kind of kernel issue. What can I do to get this available? Thanks!

  • What is the *right* way to use gnome-shell integrated chat?

    - by stevejb
    Please bear with me as I am still figuring out how to use gnome-shell. My question concerns how to use the integrated chat correctly. I have the following questions: 1) When people chat with me, it pops up as a notification on the hidden bar at the bottom of the screen, and then that chat stays there so I can access it later. How do I initiate a chat in this manner, without opening an empathy window? What I have been doing is Hitting super key Typing in the person's name, which brings up contacts Initiate the chat using empathy Immediately close the chat window When the person responds, it comes through as a notification. I then proceed to interact with the chat this way. 2) What is the keyboard shortcut for bringing up the notifications bar? Ideally, I would like to have the following experience Use some keyboard shortcut to bring up notifications Begin typing the name of the notification that I wish to investigate, and have the matching work in a fuzzy manner, much like Ido mode's buffer switching matching in Emacs When then right name is matched, I hit enter and then bring up the chat with that person as that popup notification. Are these behaviours supported? If not, I would be happy to work on implementing them. I am an experienced programmer, but not familiar with gnome-shell. If someone would point me in the right direction in terms of if this behaviour is supported, or where in the gnome-shell framework would I add to to get this behaviour, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

  • What is the optimal way to run a set of regressions in R.

    - by stevejb
    Assume that I have sources of data X and Y that are indexable, say matrices. And I want to run a set of independent regressions and store the result. My initial approach would be results = matrix(nrow=nrow(X), ncol=(2)) for(i in 1:ncol(X)) { matrix[i,] = coefficients(lm(Y[i,] ~ X[i,]) } But, loops are bad, so I could do it with lapply as out <- lapply(1:nrow(X), function(i) { coefficients(lm(Y[i,] ~ X[i,])) } ) Is there a better way to do this?

  • editing Rnw in Emacs, gets confused if in math mode or not

    - by stevejb
    When editing .Rnw files with emacs, sometimes it gets confused as to if I am in math mode or not. Then, the syntax highlighting gets messed up, and C-f-i inserts \textit{} and \mathit{} opposite to how it normally should. Is seems like there is some bool storing the state of math mode or not, and it gets inadvertently flipped. Is there a way I can manually flip it back?

  • using gsub to modify output of xtable command

    - by stevejb
    Hello, my.mat <- cbind(1:5, rnorm(5), 6:10, rnorm(5)) colnames(my.mat) <- c("Turn", "Draw","Turn", "Draw") print(xtable(my.mat)) yields \begin{table}[ht] \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{rrrrr} \hline & Turn & Draw & Turn & Draw \\ \hline 1 & 1.00 & -0.72 & 6.00 & 0.91 \\ 2 & 2.00 & 0.57 & 7.00 & 0.56 \\ 3 & 3.00 & 1.08 & 8.00 & 0.55 \\ 4 & 4.00 & 0.95 & 9.00 & 0.46 \\ 5 & 5.00 & 1.94 & 10.00 & 1.06 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \end{table} I want to filter out the \begin{table} and \end{table} lines. I can do this using gsub, but how to I get the results of print(xtable(... into a variable? Thanks for the help Stack Overflow R community!

  • R library for discrete Markov chain simulation

    - by stevejb
    Hello, I am looking for something like the 'msm' package, but for discrete Markov chains. For example, if I had a transition matrix defined as such Pi <- matrix(c(1/3,1/3,1/3, 0,2/3,1/6, 2/3,0,1/2)) for states A,B,C. How can I simulate a Markov chain according to that transition matrix? Thanks,

  • can lapply not modify variables in a higher scope

    - by stevejb
    I often want to do essentially the following: mat <- matrix(0,nrow=10,ncol=1) lapply(1:10, function(i) { mat[i,] <- rnorm(1,mean=i)}) But, I would expect that mat would have 10 random numbers in it, but rather it has 0. (I am not worried about the rnorm part. Clearly there is a right way to do that. I am worry about affecting mat from within an anonymous function of lapply) Can I not affect matrix mat from inside lapply? Why not? Is there a scoping rule of R that is blocking this?

  • using R to estimate finite mixture model with underlying Markov process

    - by stevejb
    Hello, My apologies if this is more of a statistics question than an R question. I am trying to estimate the following model in R. y_t = mu0 (1 - S_t) + mu1 S_t + e_t e_t ~ N(0, sigma_t^2) sigma_t^2 = sigma_0^2 (1 - S_t) + sigma_1^2 S_t where mu_t = mu0 if S_t = 0, mu_t = mu1 if S_t = 1, and S_t is a Markov process, either 0 or 1, with transition probabilities P(S_t = 1 | S_t-1 = 1 ) = p and P(S_t = 0 | S_t-1 = 0 ) = q. Would 'flexmix' be a good library to use for this? I am new to this kind of statistics so any pointer to the right library would be appreciated. Thanks,

  • how to wrap a function that only takes individual elements to make it take a list

    - by stevejb
    Hello, Say I have a function handed to me that I cannot change and must use as is. This function takes several objects in the form of oldFunction( object1, object2, object3, ...) where ... are other arguments. I want to write a wrapper to take a list of objects. My idea was this. sjb.ListWrapper <- function(myList,...) { lLen <- length(myList) myStr <- "" for( i in 1:lLen) { myStr <- paste(myStr, "myList[[", i , "]],",sep="") } myCode <- paste("oldFunction(", myStr, "...)") eval({myCode}) } However, the issue is that I want to use this from Sweave and I need the output of oldFunction to be printed. What is the right way to do this? Thanks.

  • how to aggregate this data in R

    - by stevejb
    Hello, I have a data frame in R with the following structure. > testData date exch.code comm.code oi 1 1997-12-30 CBT 1 468710 2 1997-12-23 CBT 1 457165 3 1997-12-19 CBT 1 461520 4 1997-12-16 CBT 1 444190 5 1997-12-09 CBT 1 446190 6 1997-12-02 CBT 1 443085 .... 77827 2004-10-26 NYME 967 10038 77828 2004-10-19 NYME 967 9910 77829 2004-10-12 NYME 967 10195 77830 2004-09-28 NYME 967 9970 77831 2004-08-31 NYME 967 9155 77832 2004-08-24 NYME 967 8655 What I want to do is produce a table the shows for a given date and commodity the total oi across every exchange code. So, the rows would be made up of unique(testData$date) and the columns would be unique(testData$comm.code) and each cell would be the total oi over all exch.codes on a given day. Thanks,

  • can the point have a longer history

    - by stevejb
    Hello, I often find myself in the following situation. Say I was editing a file with this contents \begin{itemize} \item \end{itemize} I really like http://stackoverflow.com ! And say the point was after the word \item. What I want to do is select http://stackoverflow.com , C-w it, and go back to \item, and yank it there. What I would do is C-s htt and that would bring the point to the 2nd t of http, and from there I would go backwards, C-SPC on h, then select the rest of the word. Now, I would like to use something like C-x C-x to bring me back to \item, but it will instead bring me back to the h of http. Is there a command like C-x C-x which brings the point back through its history of location? Thanks,
