Linux News

I just want to set the proper publication dates for archived files I collect, so they show up as a time-line when I set modification fate as the sort order. I'll need to open each file in a directory to see the publication dates before changing their modification dates.

Using touch in bash is to slow and tedious.

Thanks for any tips!

Dear Sir/Mrs.

I raised that problem to the Eclipse organization.
I installed the Eclipse using the installer on a PC 86x64 with SUSE Enterprice High Performance Linux

The points I did not understand are:
1. Why I do not have a Desktop when I am logged as a user.
2. I set all the necessary permissions. Why the list of application does not contain the Eclipse when I am logged as a regular user.
I would like to update you with new technology that may interest you. Automatic parallelization also on multiple distributed computing system/
Enclosed please find a non-confidential presentation.

Best regards,
Yehuda

So I'm intersted in a setup where I use wayland for my daily driving, but I have a bare x server in another VT that I can launch applications in (I'm aware of xwayland, this is actually so I can allow a couple applications to get past a few wayland/nvidia driver limitations).

So I'd like to know if SDDM is capable of doing this. I *could* start the X server on my own but i'd rather it be automated with SDDM when I login and so SDDM does the job of killing it when I log out.

Hi, it's me, I'm back.

genpowerd versus nut

genpowerd was last updated in 2014; nut was updated last month. (The slackbuild.org version of nut has not quite kept up.)

I'd be happy to have a number of backup power supply hooks that were called by rc.0, rc.6, and rc.M that would DTRT.

For example, on a Slackware64 14.2 system, I have modified a bit of both /etc/rc.d/rc.0 AND /etc/rc.d/rc.6 to be...

Code: # This is to ensure all processes have completed on SMP machines:
wait

if [ -x /sbin/genpowerd ]; then
  # See if this is a powerfail situation:
  if /bin/egrep -q "FAIL|SCRAM" /etc/upsstatus 2> /dev/null ; then
    # Signal UPS to shut off the inverter:
    /sbin/genpowerd -k
    if [ ! $? = 0 ]; then
      echo
      echo "There was an error signaling the UPS."
      echo "Perhaps you need to edit /etc/genpowerd.conf to configure"
      echo "the serial line and UPS type."
      # Wasting 15 seconds of precious power:
      /bin/sleep 15
    fi
  fi
fi

if [ -e /etc/killpower ]; then
    /etc/rc.d/rc.ups shutdown
    sleep 120
    echo "Well, that didn't work as expected"
fi I think it would be a good idea to replace the if [ -x /sbin/genpowerd ]; then block to a call to a hook script if said script exists and is executable that does the right thing depending upon your UPS handler. The default being the genpowerd block being already there.
