Comments:
<0> halorgium: user needs write access to the directory to chown files.. might need to own them too, not sure
<1> yea, i'm thinking ownership is necessary
<2> Hi there. Is there a VML viewer available for Linux?
<1> i've got a cron which maintains the uid/gid of all files in /store
<1> rsync complains when it goes to rename the file it created which has been chowned :/
<1> oh well
<3> Cerulean, you mean VRML?
<2> lenny__: No, VML. Vector Markup Language
<2> the precedor to SVG. IE supports it.
<3> don't know... never heard of it. I was about to ask you if it was something similar to SVG
<3> if you can give me a link to a VML drawing
<4> What is the quick way of creating a tar.gz from a folder ?
<3> I can try to see if opera or konqueror displays them, but I doubt it
<4> I first use to create and then append it file by file
<5> tar -czf folder.tar folder
<1> tar zxf your_dir.tar.gz your_dir
<4> Brianetta, that doesnt works in fc
<1> Brianetta: !
<1> err
<1> my bad also
<5> I forgot the .gz
<1> tar zcf your_dir.tar.gz your_dir
<1> :P
<5> (:
<3> or tar jcvf archive.tar.bz2 directory
<6> hello, sorry if this is is very simple, but i am new to linux - how can i convert a timestamp into a fromatted date? "date --date=1150208650" doesn't work :(
<3> I like bz2 moar
<4> tar -czf runs successfully but when i do tar -t, it takes forever to show an output
<1> lenny__: everyone knows that bz2 was created with large quantities of crack in the creators brain :P
<4> Any clue ?
<3> that's why I like it
<3> aelp, if you add the v option you'll se the files
<3> or elase it will be silent until the archive is ready
<7> anyone here know how to get data off of a failling raid0?
<7> gotta friend who has a lacie 1tb that it looks like one of the crapstor drives is failing
<6> nny - did the drives fail?
<7> Neptune__: if i try each one in nix, one of them gives up i/o errors and boot
<7> Neptune__: once booted, none of them have a valid part table since it is raid0
<6> yeah - you need both drives to read something
<7> Neptune__: maybe dd the failing one to a new drive?
<5> aelp: You need tar tzf file.tar.gz
<8> There really is no video editing software that is any good on linux. :-/
<5> tar -t file does nothing that you meant it to
<6> you know how raid0 works? it writes one block to one drive then the next to the other - so with one drive you only have every second block of the filesystem
<6> nny - you would need to try to copy stuff bitwise yes
<6> anyone have any ideas on converting a timestamp into a formatted date?
<0> Neptune__: i usually use perl for that
<5> date can do it
<6> Brianetta - how?
<5> Neptune__: For me, a lengthy read of th eman page every bloody time.
<6> Triffid_Hunter - hm i have no idea about perl :(
<6> Brianetta - i did read the man page
<6> debian:~# date --date=1150208650
<6> date: invalid date `1150208650'
<3> it has something to do with the %s format option
<0> Neptune__: all I know about date is that date -s "`ssh me@somewhere.else date`" is a poor man's ntpdate, and date +%s prints the time as a unix timestamp
<3> but I can't remember how to do it in bash
<9> Anyone here know how to build windows "installer" packages on a linux box? ie. MSI / .exe wizard-style installer
<0> wide_awake: cross-compile MinGW
<6> lenny__ - i think the %s was about _output_ format - not input :(
<10> infozip might be able to do it somehow
<0> wide_awake: then find some source for the installer, or run a wizard in wine or something.. lots of things use nullsoft installer, check that one out maybe?
<6> lenny__ - i see no way of specifying the _input_ format on the man page
<9> Triffid_Hunter, I'll check nullsoft
<5> date +%s
<5> That's what you have
<5> date +%s | awk '{print(strftime("%c", $1))}'
<5> That's what you want
<3> there is a way, but maybe you better use a per function or something
<3> perl* better documented and all
<5> echo 1111111111 | awk '{print(strftime("%c", $1))}'
<5> (:
<6> hm ill have to do that sometime...
<5> Ooooh
<5> 1234567890 - unlucky date for some (:
<11> where should I go for X support?
<12> Linuturk: I was not in school the day they taught telepathy - ask your question and wait - if anyone has an answer they will give it.
<11> i've got a barcode scanner that works fine in terminal, but not in any X gui (XFCE or gnome)
<13> how does it connect?
<11> PS/2 Wedge
<13> you have the programming book?
<11> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=143421&highlight=cuecat << thread on the problem
<13> oh, it's the cutecut
<13> I thought you said barcode scanner :-p
<11> yeah, it's been modified
<11> it is . . . ;p
<13> Which revision is it?
<11> it should spit out a plain barcode number
<11> ok, one sec
<8> Any edit video on linux? I'd have to have to go to windows to do this.
<11> tonsofpcs, where is the revision number?
<11> tonsofpcs, cat # is 68-1965-A
<13> ok, it's a revision A
<13> you did the mod yourself?
<11> no, ebay
<13> oh
<11> but it works fine in windows
<13> well check to make sure the mod was done right ;)
<11> and terminal
<11> but any gui, such as XFCE or gnome
<11> i get different numbers everytime
<13> on As I think you need to cut a diode and add two jumpers for it to work properly (or was that B...)
<11> tonsofpcs, it works fine in windows. that means the mod was done correctly, right?
<13> no
<13> that means the mod was at least partially done correctly
<13> find the instructions for modding, open it up, and check
<11> well, i two cuecats
<11> and they both act the same
<13> Linuturk: well check them
<11> ok, checking
<13> for the rev C, it's a trace from the blob, for either A or B, it's just a diode cut, for the other of those two it's a diode cut and two jumper wires
<13> I gotta get going
<14> yodel
<14> sw v fr mmm cheese
<6> i am trying to lock a tape drive - "mt -f /dev/st0 lock" does not work - it outputs "mt: invalid tape operation `lock'" - whats wrong? (i am using debian)
<14> dunno Neptune__ i don't use tape :-s
<14> what does that command work on?
<7> Neptune__: hmmm do you have a licky or know of a good way to use dd to get the data to a non failing drive.. i know the basics, but wondering if there are optoins for dd to help with the transfer
<6> well i searched on google on how to lock a tape drive - but the "mt" on my sys doesnt know teh operation lock :(
<6> nny - dont ask me about commands - i am new to linux - i know hardware though ;)
<2> I have a win2k installation setup. Is there a (free) application that allows me to run it in a window on my linux desktop?
<6> Iron_Chef - what do you mean "work on?" ?
<2> VMware seems to only let you install a new operating system from scratch
<6> you mean what tape drive?
<0> Cerulean: qemu
<0> Cerulean: consider wine too
<2> Triffid_Hunter: Considering but it has issues with the application I want to run
<14> Neptune__, work with
<2> no DirectX filter / VML support in IE6
<14> eg cdrom zip disk etc
<14> france has a good anthem :-)
<0> Cerulean: google "ies4linux" ;)
<6> Iron_Chef - its a DAT/DDS-2 tape
<2> Triffid_Hunter: I have them all installed
<2> but like I said, when running under linux there's no support for IE filters
<2> or VML
<0> go with qemu then.. I used it for a bit until i convinced wine to run ucc for me
<14> excellent zidane :-)
<15> Cerulean, make a vm for win2k with blank disk boot the v-machine with sysresccd and dd the iso in
<2> on1009: I already have an installation set up. I don't want to have to install again.
<16> Isn't it just userdel or deluser to delete a user on RHEL3 ?
<15> Cerulean, what do you mean by installation set up?
<0> Cerulean: well windows has a history of handling m***ive hardware change rather poorly ;)
<2> on1009: I have installed win2k already
<15> where?
<2> on1009: If I use VMware or some such I have to install it to a 'virtual machine'
<2> to my computer
<15> on hdd
<2> yep
