The original question was posted back in Februrary, before 22.04 was released.
The problem may have gone away when upgrading to 22.04, which is listed in cmcanulty's current profile.
It looks like...

You can use "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" to get the file that bash is reading the script from.
You may want to then follow symlinks with "readlink -f" and
strip off the file name with "dirname".
...

It is actually started by gnome-settings-daemon.
But you can disable that copy of syndaemon from being started.
Use the "System" menu.
Choose "Preferences" and "Mouse".
Switch to the "Touchpad"...

You can use the bash "[[ ]]" test and the "=~" operator.


#!/bin/bash
array=("c211z091009" "c212z091029" "c213z091011" "c214z091012" "c215z091013"
"c216z091014" "c217z091015" "c217z091016")...

If the hex digit multiplication tables are too big for comfort, you could easily convert from hex to binary and back. Then the multiplication and long division operations are very simple. But you...

The java double type is a 64 bit floating point number using IEEE standard types.

The representation is actually a binary number with 53 bits of precision...

Assuming that the targets that you want to change all consist of alphanumeric characters and periods followed by an optional group of spaces and a colon, use-

sed -e 's/^[[:alnum:].]\+...

You get very familiar with a system by digging around collectors' groups and assorted garages for original developer's documentation.
(Somebody had to design that system and the games for it.)
And...

It is listing many unmapped windows.
You can look at get_attributes and check for a map_state value of X.IsViewable.
You can also see more about windows that are transient for other windows, such...

It seems that the gnome dbus method reports the time since gnome decided the screen was idle.
That varies with the gnome screensaver time setting.
This reports a 2 second idle time. But it turns...

You could try vimpager.
It is a vim wrapper that uses vim to act like less, with the addition of vim's color syntax highlighting.

You can use bash alone to parse strings.
Here is an example that uses read and ${Var:Offset:Length} to parse them.


#!/bin/bash
for f in *.bmp
do
read j d t<<<"$f"
t=${t:0:8}
...

You can use sysconf() to inquire the number of processors in linux.
While sysconf() is posix standard, the feature that reports processor counts is not standard.


#include <stdio.h>
#include...

You can just put two string constants next to eachother to concatenate them.


#define CONFIG_PATH "/etc/openvpn/conf"

glob_t gl;

/* These three lines are equivalent. */...

True. librt pulls in libpthread, so linking with it works.
But libpthread actually provides the pthread functions.

The gnome-terminal documentation is very weak at covering escape sequences.
The best approach is to look at the xterm escape sequences.
gnome-terminal attempts to match xterm (unless a feature has...

You can just echo an escape sequence to set a gnome-terminal title.
These title changes will go by too quickly to see them all.
You could add a sleep command if you want to slow them down.

...

The pthread functions are in "-lrt".
The semaphore functions such as semget and semop are in libc, "-lc".
It is really odd that your linking is not getting libc functions.
I see that you link...

The error is probably caused by a missing build dependency.
It is best to use apt-get and debuild to build a package.
Add this line to /etc/apt/sources.list, (if it is not already present.)...

Have a look at http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/bash.1.html#toptoc11 under Arithmetic Expansion.

"man bash" does warn that-
"The old format $[expression] is deprecated and will be removed in upcoming versions of bash."

I would not expect the "rw,nosuid,nodev" options to be parsed from the data parameter string. They are bits in the mountflags parameter.

In bash you can use

let b=$b+1
or
let b+=1
or
b=$(($b+1))
or
((b+=1))

You could use the bash ${v%pattern} feature to remove the trailing "." and "0"s.
You need to control the locale to make sure printf does thousands grouping.

The "declare" or "typeset" builtin is seldom used except when it is needed to give a variable an attribute.
If you want to you could declare all variables as a style requirement.
