Bash does not appear to be called directly. I tried various commands using ALT-F2, and then while they were running, opened another window and ran the "ps -fu <my_username>" command. Other than the...
Are you thinking of ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase? I have an encrypted directory within my home directory and that's what I use. It prompts you for your password.
This is how Ubuntu installs by default. If you want to still see the grub menu, you have to do two things:
1. In the file /etc/default/grub, comment out the line that reads...
For files in the .Private directory, there should be corresponding unencrypted virtual files in the Private (no leading period) directory. You can run the following command from each user's home...
When you're ready to digest more, check this out:

It looks like it's working, but chmod is telling you the permissions you want are already set, so there's no need to change.
"o+r" means give others read permission, and it appears they already...
I've never done a clean install with my entire home directory encrypted, but I've done several clean installs with encrypted folders in my home directory using "ecryptfs-utils" and related packages....
If I understand your question, it's pretty easy:
chmod 555 <folder_name>
Or from Nautilus, right-click on the folder, select Properties and then the Permissions tab.
To learn more about the...
Sending output to a file, instead of the screen is quite simple. It's called redirection, and a good discussion is at this web site:

So if...
Yes. For a discussion and work-around, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/614650.
If you want to use the "Place Windows" plugin (one of the work-arounds), install the...
I don't think there is a single, simple command like shutdown. For some guidance, you can run "man pm-hibernate" and "man pm-suspend" and review the manual pages. I didn't review them thoroughly,...
You can install the "youtube-dl" package. It's a command-line program which you can use to download a youtube video.
Thanks, that's good to know. Mystery solved!
I don't think there is anything wrong with your settings or anything you've done. Whenever I've scanned in any type of document using xsane, the estimated size is always a good bit larger than what...
I think that before you continue programming, you should decide exactly what you want your selection criteria to be. Do you want true randomness? It sounds like you have what you want. Do you want...
Cron and anacron don't work exactly the same. Although you can make entries in /etc/anacrontab, the format isn't the same as cron, and there's a way that I find is easier. So first, I suggest that...
There appears to be some differences in the way the "ls -l" command behaves when root runs it from cron. When I ran "sudo ls -l <directory>" from the command line, the date was given for files like...
Gee whiz, I'm really sorry, but I'm out of ideas. If I think of anything over the next few days, I'll post back.
Three thoughts come to mind:
1. Does running the script through cron work if you...
Could you post the output of "crontab -l" please? Also, are you sure the cron command is not working? In other words, is the mount working but then something is later unmounting the drive? You...
There are often subtle differences between running things with cron versus the command line. For instance, cron generally runs with a very limited PATH, so sometimes a command that otherwise runs...
It appears that my printer configuration files are in the /etc/cups directory.
I did a clean install of Lucid on two computers recently and when I added the printer, it was a little slow but did...
egrep will search for more than one parameter, but with the logic you want, I think you will have to use a combination of grep/egrep and UNIX shell scripting language, which contains if/then/else...
The backslash in the UNIX world means "interpret the next character literally rather than using its wildcard meaning." For instance if you type "ls *.txt", UNIX interprets your statement as "list...
There's no exact science for getting this right, and it's going to probably involve some trial and error. The "configure" script bombed out with an error message about not being able to find mozilla...
