Displaying CJK characters in terminal
I know that CJK characters don't display by default in the terminal, and programs like zhcon exist to display them if needed; but I'm running a headless VPS. Do I have any options to display CJK...
I've been looking at alternatives to GNOME, and have been a little confused about the difference between a desktop environment and a window manager. Is there a difference? Do you need one to use the...
I just got a new Vizio TV, and my laptop is not outputting through the VGA port. I'm using the NVIDIA card, so this may be causing the problem; however, I don't have time to mess with settings right...
Actually, ^C does not work in my most recent script:
!/bin/sh
echo here
while : ; do
sleep .5
sensors
This is my code currently:
#!/bin/sh
echo here
while : ; do
sleep .5
sensors
I was able to get it working using that code, but I'm not sure how it works. If anyone could explain it to me, I would be grateful. Thanks!
I can use ^C to end the program, but I wanted the ability to use any key. Sorry if I was confusing.
My computer gets very hot (~70 degrees C) when I run .jar files. Is there any way to "lessen the load" when running a .jar? Thanks
This only works if I type "q" and then press enter. Also, What do the X's do? Thanks for all the help!
It doesn't seem to be working (maybe I'm doing something wrong?). When I run the code, and hit a key, it runs everything again, instead of breaking out of the loop:
#!/bin/bash
key=
while [...
I don't really want to use CTRL-C, I'll probably just use Python.
I don't really know where I would put that... the condition?
I cannot figure out how to make my BASH script end when a key is pressed...
I wanted to write a script that will run the "sensors" command every three seconds until I press a key to make it stop. The only problem I am running into is that I don't know how to detect when a...
Okay, I edited the file correctly, and now I am getting ~50 degrees C and only 17.6W
Oh, looks like I was doing it wrong!
I haven't made any changes to my system besides those needed to get Thinkfan running (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1749186#9). My battery lasts about 5 hours (9 cell). I haven't really...
Maybe I'm editing the file incorrectly? This is what my /etc/default/grub looks like:
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

It didn't work well for me (using Nvidia card). My temperature stayed about the same 46 - 50 degrees C, and my power usage stayed around 20W.
I have a few (noobish) questions about this:
What does
pcie_aspm=force i915.i915_enable_rc6=1
actually do?
In the link you posted, one user said that they experienced higher power usage...
A few programs tend to heat my laptop up to unsafe levels (70 - 80 degrees C), and I don't know of any laptop cooling solutions (software based). I wanted to install Thinkfan from the Software...
I run 11.04 using the NVIDIA graphics, not the Intel graphics. I have a 9 cell battery, so it will last about 6 hours; but it does not freeze or have any graphical errors. Also, it runs at 46 degrees...
I just installed 10.10 on my machine, but I cannot download anything with apt. I tried running
sudo apt-get install vim
but it returned
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency...
It will recognize DVDs, but not blank DVDs.
I wasn't able to find it in any other distros that I have (they were not Ubuntu)
