Re: dual boot - Windows 10 upgrade.
On 07/13/2016 07:47 PM, Robin Laing wrote: I need to do the windows 10 upgrade on a dual boot laptop. Any serious worries I need to watch out for? Thank you in advance. Robin -- I did this twice. In both cases I had a dual-boot Windows plus Linux / and /home and swap. In one case it worked perfectly. In the other case, it turned the two Linux partitions (but not swap) into one big "unallocated" partition. I never knew why. I did not try to rescue the "unallocated" partition--it might have had the files and data buried in it, but I don't know. So my best advice to you is to backup anything you want to keep onto a USB drive or something before you do it. And of course, Windows will almost certainly wipe out your dual-boot, so you will have to set that back up. (Windows can't seem to install anything big without rebooting a time or two, so it sets up its own boot manager.) Oh, I tried to do it one other time, with some poorly documented program that was supposed to let Windows operate the dual-boot function. This time I wound up losing Windows 7, so I had nothing to upgrade from. Altho I really hardly ever use Windows, there are one or two things that I need it for, and I usually need it on _that_ machine, so I bought a new Win 10-Pro disk and installed it, and then reinstalled Linux.

Re: OT: grep and regex patterns
Once upon a time, Mike Wrightsaid: > PATTERN="^.*http:\/\/.*\.in.*$" > grep $PATTERN < file.of.links >links.in Several issues I see: - it appears you are using a shell variable to pass the pattern; since you are using double quotes, shell interpolation occurs, so all the escaping \ characters are just escaping from the shell - grep just sees "^.*http://.*.in.*$; - you'll match any URL with "in" in it anywhere, not just in the hostname portion - "^.*" and ".*$" are essentially useless, because they match anything at the start and end of the line respectively (which, since by default a pattern isn't anchored to the start/end, is not needed) - you don't need to escape the / (so // is fine instead of the "leaning toothpicks" of "\/\/") - if you are going to use a variable to set the pattern, you need to use double quotes around it when it is used - may not be a problem for your case, but you won't match HTTPS URLs - minor nit: grep reads from a file, so shell redirection is superfluous Putting all that together, I'd recommend: PATTERN='https?://[^/]*\.in/' grep "$PATTERN" file.of.links > links.in or just: grep 'https?://[^/]*\.in/' file.of.links > links.in Only potential oddity would be if you have URLs with non-standard ports specified (like "https://foo.in:8080/;); to match that, you could use egrep instead (extended regex): egrep 'https://[^/]*\.in(:[0-9]+)?/' file.of.links > links.in -- Chris Adams -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

OT: grep and regex patterns
Hi all, There is a file with a collection of links from global sites. While trying to sort the links into categories I'm catching the wrong things. e.g. find links from India: PATTERN="^.*http:\/\/.*\.in.*$" grep $PATTERN < file.of.links >links.in Even though the "." in front of "in" is escaped with "\" PATTERN is catching any text containing "in". This is obviously not what is intended. Any one out there point me to the error of my ways?

This can sometimes happen when system time is set to a UTC offset while users have their zones set to a local zone which has "standard" time as well as "summer" time. But, your email address would suggest you're located in Australia and now on "standard" time so they should match up. So, it isn't clear why this is happening in your case.

(just closing this "properly". my apologies for the earlier mistake in the subject line.) Neither VLC nor Amarok seem to come with Fedora. But late last night, I found VLC with "apper" and downloaded it. I got it to work for the two radio stations. It did not help with "Pipedreams". (By the way, Pipedreams is *not* a radio station.) Now this morning, the buttons on the second link (http://www.yourclassical.org/programs/pipedreams/episodes) for Pipedreams does work! The buttons on the first link (http://pipedreams.publicradio.org/listings/2016/1628/) still don't work. I'll open a new thread on that later, mainly focused on adobe applications.

radiotray and gstreamer plugins
The current thread on "listening to online broadcasts" stimulated me to ask about problems with the one I like, "radiotray". A number of stations I try to listen to, including some preconfigured ones, fail with a list of procedures from gstreamer that suggest a plugin is missing. But it does not say which. As far as I can tell I have just about every gstreamer plugin installed and see no way to determine what may be missing. Scouring the net comes up with lots of reports of similar error listings, but no "solution" has worked in my environment. Here is a sample listing: gstdecodebin2.c (3576) gst_decode_bin_expose(): GstPlayBin2:player GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin9 GstDecodeBin2:decodebin29: I have the same problem on Fedora 22 and 24.

The other page opens a popup window and uses flash to play the audio, so if you have the flash plugin installed it should work. Oh, check the system logs.

What I don't know is how that works exactly. With ISC's dhcpd, you make "architecture-type" a condition: option architecture-type code 93 = unsigned integer 16; if option architecture-type = 00:07 { filename "shim.efi"; } else { filename "pxelinux.0"; } At least, I think that's what you mean. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Just so that we're clear, if you boot this computer using an older version of GRUB2 from tftp, your custom application works, but if you then use the newer version, it doesn't work? You can reproduce both the working and not-working conditions? If so, what version was previously working?

Look into your favorite app for listening and either open the saved *.pls file or open link option and copy from clipboard. Either way works in most cases.

You will have trouble getting a mail client to accept mail as being not-junk when the mail comes with headers that say it is junk. If you were to circumvent that, all externally-determined junk mail is likely to get passed through as not-junk. You'd need to use a better mail client, that lets you set priorities of what un-junks the spamminess rating. So that certain list headers get a very high rating. Or, receive your list mail from a different address not served by yahoo or gmail, while realising that choosing a different service that works now, may inherit the same problem at some future time. Really, a better way to handle mailing lists is a newsgroup server. But I'm less than impressed with the news clients I've tried on Linux, so I've never bothered using the gmane news gateway. -- tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.19.8-100.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Tue May 12 17:42:35 UTC 2015 i686 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
