I hope this is an okay place to ask about this.
Is anyone listening to Sirius Listen Online? It's was working for me a couple of days ago and now it doesn't. I even booted up an XP machine to...
I think I found what I was looking for in libmagic. And it's already installed!
Thanks for all the help,

Is there a C library call that is the equivalent to the 'file' system command? I'm looking to process directories of files. The process is different for different file types. I'd rather not have...
Is anyone using whiptail? When I use '--separate-output' with a '--checklist' the output is suppressed.
Who or where is whiptail maintained?
Thanks,
Mark
Thanks for your help. I'm trying to use whiptail in an install script. When using the whiptail checklist, the checked items are written to stdout space separated:
"a" "c" "d" "f" "g"
so I used...

Thanks, Mark
Okay double quotes _and_ escape characters.
Thanks, Mark
I'm trying to write a script to toggle sound on and off. How do I escape the braces in the grep command so that they are part of the search pattern?

I'm a yacht mechanic now. I was a developer for 13 years. Started out with Apple II basic, and then CP/M and MS DOS. Moved to Win3.1 next. Tried BSD but couldn't afford the proper hardware. ...
Thanks for the replies. ps -C is just what I needed. I didn't know it was available. Should have read
the man page...
Thanks again,
I have a cron job that runs 'xfdesktop --reload' every 10 mins. If xfdesktop is not running
then I get errors. So I want to write a bash script that tests if xfdesktop is running before
running...
It looks like calling landlines is available. I tried it once but it didn't work. I got a
"recording" in French that I could not understand. I'm sure I have to pay some
money up front but I...
Perfect! stat -c %U is exactly what I was looking for.
Many Thanks,

Yea, ls -l will display them, but then I've got to use sed to pull out the group and
owner columns before I can test against a string. I was hoping someone knew
of a command and/or flag that...
I need to test file ownership and the group from bash. I haven't figured out a
straight forward way to do this. Can anyone suggest something before I start
working on something using ls and...
I might be able to write what you need, but I'm really busy this time of year. As a

things you may find useful:...
Hi,
I'm working on bug fixes and small features for a software package. This
program needs some details finished up. It needs things like an installer
a logrotate entry, etc. Are these the...

I'm sorry to have taken up everyone time at sure a time critical period. After
making a stack of coasters, I tried to burn an old iso I used to build a couple
of machines, I'm getting an error...
Actually, I've had this problem on every ISO I've downloaded since last fall.
Probably tried 6-7 versions. The most recent version was from two nights
ago.
I hope I can help sort this out, but...
I tried to boot the feisty-desktop-i386.iso (build 2070301). It fails on three machines with:
