can I set the default command for NewTab, per profile? I want an mrxvt profile that executes "su -" for each new tab opened.

For those using our Phoronix Test Suite for performance benchmarking, regression monitoring, or running other automated tests atop our open-source platform/framework, the 2.8.1 update to "Torsken" is out this morning. There's just a couple of small bug-fixes since the 2.8 release less than two weeks ago.

I'm wondering why there's a discrepancy between what the Ubuntu-installed amixer program and a self-compiled one show.

When I run, for example, 'amixer scontrols' (i.e. using the Ubuntu-installed version) I get the output:

Code: Simple mixer control 'Master',0
Simple mixer control 'Headphone',0
Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
Simple mixer control 'Front',0
Simple mixer control 'Mic Jack Mode',0
Simple mixer control 'IEC958',0
Simple mixer control 'IEC958 Default PCM',0
Simple mixer control 'IEC958',1
Simple mixer control 'Capture',0
Simple mixer control 'Mux',0
Simple mixer control 'PC Beep',0 However, when I run a self compiled one I only get:

Code: Simple mixer control 'Master',0
Simple mixer control 'Capture',0 Any idea why there would be such a difference?

I got the alsa-utils source by doing:

Code: # apt-get build-dep alsa-utils
# apt-get source alsa-utils And I didn't pass any flags to the configure script apart from passing it --prefix=`pwd`-install so it doesn't overwrite the current one.

The installer recognizes my wifi device but in order to connect to wifi I have to be able to use iwconfig to tell it that it has to connect to channel 11. If I don't do that it doesn't connect. The amd64 installer lists wireless tools in the list of extra tools to load, but for some reason the 32 bit installer doesn't. However wireless_tools...udeb is on the disk. What command would I use to load it manually from a console?

Hi,
I'm trying to get ndisgtk for Suse 11.3. I've downloaded and installed ndiswrapper. Even after adding the packman repositories, I still can't find ndisgtk. I've searched ndis-gtk and ndisgtk.
I found ndisgtk on an external site and tried to install it using a .rpm, but this failed. How can I get it installed.

Any help would be appreciated,

Tim

Hello The Linux Community,

I am sorry that my posting was not detailed enough regarding encrypted
pop3 mail client.

My problem is that for an encrypted server my client blocks after
I send the QUIT command to the server and I do not know the reason
why my client blocks.

Language C, Library openssl, IP4.
Compiler: gcc.

Output:

send: STLS
receive: +Ok ssl handshake

send: USER XXXXX
receive: +OK

send: PASS ***
receive: +OK

Send: STAT
receive: +Ok 0 0

send: QUIT
receive: blocks
At this point I need to use crtl^C to exit the program.


For the non-encrypted mail client everything works fine.

Any help would be appreciated.

Sincerely
bearkelowna.

Hello All,

I have an issue that I have been trying to figure out this week. This issue started last Friday and I've been trying to track it down ever since. Basically what I have is there is something that is kicking off a portmap process. It's been driving me insistently mad because system monitoring keeps kicking out emails for duplicate processes.

Code: Event Class:    Proc_Dups
Message:        portmap: more than 1 running Below is what you can see. It seems to be starting a new portmap process about every minute. /var/log/messages doesn't give much of any help. I can't turn off the monitoring because I need to know when/if portmap fails due to services that depend upon it.

hi i am running Ubuntu 9.10. sometimes my USB device is auto detected and shows up on my desktop other time it is not detected?? anyway i am trying to figure how to Mount it. read about the ETC/FSTAB file and i may need an entry there. following is a copy
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# / was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=5aee3da3-8b83-4f79-b185-82a1b85f750e / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
# swap was on /dev/sda6 during installation
UUID=c0162b0f-c095-419a-b961-ae56b3cc4f0a none swap sw 0 0
/dev/scd1 /media/cdrom2 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

i did try to update with an entry similar to the cdrom.
my fstab is read only so no update.
i have read other USB mount problems but not sure about any.

any ideas thanks ken

Setup will now terminate

I'm running fedora 13 and i installed wine via yum.Your assistances will be highly appreciated.
