<0> ok
<1> I think I'll do an `echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward` then be the hero after m***es of students come up to my room begging me to fix their Internet access.
<2> heh
<3> samaha-, find dir -type f -printf "%H %f\n" | while read DIR FILE; do echo mv "$DIR/$FILE" "$DIR/$(sed 's,.*,\L&,g' <<< "${FILE//*\//}")" ; done
<3> samaha-, or use 'rename'. :p
<3> (you will need bash3 for this)
<4> jeian: might actually get laid!
<4> j/k
<2> if you have krename, you can even do that in a gui
<2> heh
<1> I'm on #linux, what are the odds of that? :P
<2> Jabberwock: or, at the very least, some free beer
<2> heh
<4> true
<2> jeian: hey now! i have been known to get laid
<1> ;D
<0> im not using bash even
<1> What I meant to say: "I go to one of the most conservative Catholic schools in the country, what are the odds of that?"
<3> samaha-, use 'rename' then, if you have it
<5> is there a RSS (or more) feeds on the new kernel relases as well as the fixes done?
<0> i checked.. dont have it
<6> heh what distro doesn't have rename
<3> install it then
<3> fire-eyes, a lot
<3> and a lot have different versions of them too
<6> lame.
<7> umm
<7> samaha-, you want to lowercase the filenames in a directory?
<0> yea
<3> try this samaha-, find dir -type f -printf "%H %f\n" | while read DIR FILE; do echo mv "$DIR/$FILE" "$DIR/$(echo "$FILE" | sed 's,.*,\L&,g')" ; done
<7> if it's more than the first character, will that hurt anything?
<7> or is it simply the case that only the first character is uppercase?
<0> second option nibble
<3> the whole sentence needs to be lowercase
<7> samaha-, yes n |for i in *[A-Z]* ;do j="`echo ./$i |tr 'A-Z' 'a-z'`" ;mv -i -- "./$i" "./$j" ;done
<7> samaha-, several levels of paranoid in that commandline, to avoid trashing files in event of name conflict
<3> you should add a [ -f $i ]
<7> this will take "FooBar" and make it "foobar"
<3> it will do it to directories too though
<8> what's the different and use of the srpms and rpms
<9> rpms are binary
<9> others are source
<10> Bonsoir la nibble
<8> can i use the source to install ?
<3> and also no need to put it in $j
<9> yes, though i dont know the process
<9> but to install the binary its pretty simple, su -c 'rpm -Uvh package.rpm'
<7> Bonsoir toi!
<3> nibble, for i in *[A-Z]* ; do [ -f "$i" ] && echo mv -i -- "$i" "`echo $i | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z'`" ; done
<3> :p
<11> so I downloaded openoffice, got it unzipped into the tmp folder which now it created it own folder in the tmp. How do I go about installing? thx in advance
<12> read the readme
<2> consumed: the source ?
<7> yep, could also check that there is no directory called $j
<12> consumed: whats your distro
<7> that's not a bad idea
<7> but I did it in two secs
<11> Fedora c5
<12> your distro honestly should already have and OO package
<7> you DO realize that techdeck, do you?
<12> consumed: then you need to learn to use pup and pirut and yum
<3> nibble, aye
<7> I'd just go for: test -f "$i" || continue
<12> consumed: you will screw things up the way you are going
<3> nibble, same same :p
<11> I'm learning, if I screw it up I will just reinstall. Only way to learn
<12> consumed: or you read first
<12> then follow instructions
<12> do things right the first time every time
<11> lol, common... what guy really reads the manual?
<3> nibble, oi I wanted to ask you something, can I /msg you?
<12> linux guys
<12> consumed: hence the phrase rtfm
<7> sure
<0> nibble I mean how the **** did you come up with that ?????????????
<12> consumed: so I suggest you learn to use pirut
<12> consumed: in fact type it in
<12> find open office in it, select it
<12> enjoy
<2> samaha-: experience and logical thinking
<2> and a feeling for drama
<2> ;)
<11> ****, fedora 5 has open office already
<0> I see
<12> consumed: I said that already
<0> thank you.. it worked :>
<12> consumed: so if you dont start reading you will waste time and break things for nothing
<3> thanks :D
<7> np
<2> HAH!

<7> samaha, if you want a pure (and portable) sed to lowercase just the first char, it's quite involved
<7> samaha, sed 'h;s/.\(.*\)/\1/;x;s/\(.\).*/\1/;y/ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz/;G;s/\n//;'
<3> haha
<7> I think that'd do it, portably..
<7> Anyway, I'm out
<7> later guys, have fun
<3> later
<0> thanks again and take care
<3> nibble, sed has \L and \U
<11> good mp3 player for linux?
<3> they take care of lower/upper case for you
<3> consumed, xmms, mpg321, amarok, mplayer . . .
<7> Techdeck, gnu extensions
<7> they're not portable.
<7> can I go now?
<2> nibble: no! you need to stay here
<2> oh, shiney.
<2> brb
<7> *lix*
<7> personally I'd consider awk the best solution.
<7> ok
<7> <- out.
<2> later, good luck and see you
<2> :)
<7> awk '{ print tolower(substr($0,1,1)) substr($0,2) }'
<7> <- REALLY out
<2> tr would also work
<7> yes, but not easily
<2> :D
<2> now GO!
<2> :D
<7> you'd have to break off the first character, echo that to tr, then rejoin the result with the rest of the original string
<7> <- REALLY REALLY... out.
<2> tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]' would make everything lowercase, granted
<3> nibble?
<3> nibble, I just got back, and he's using GNU
<11> in terminal, whats the syntax to view a pic?
<13> hi
<13> any one
<2> hrm.. how big in mm is the viewable screen of a 21" monitor ?
<13> Enchanter_tim use linux?
<14> anyway to undo last rm command?
<2> lonetron: there isnt one
<6> restore from backups or forget it
<15> lonetron: if you have ext2 then look at http://www.stud.tu-ilmenau.de/~mojo/undelete.html
<16> hey some one plz find me rules for debuggin a data base like testing it with range of values and styff
<9> i wonder whats causing mplayer to execute itself
<17> Hi All.
<17> I am using Suse.
<17> When I type service network restart 'It says command not found'
<17> Howdo we restart services on Suse.
<18> I would look in /etc/init.d or similar places.
<17> What's in there?
<17> Commands?
<17> John_Dow_?
<9> /etc/init.d/apache2 start, to start apache
<18> Scripts might be there, you can run more on them.
