set -- $(/sbin/ifconfig eth0 2/dev/null); echo ${7//[^0-9.]/}
set cuts stdout from ifconfig into positional parameters, according to $IFS. the

Moreover, could someone confirm my guess about loadavg values? (1 minute, 5

A simple link to a page explainig those three values is enough (man top

echo ${array[0]}
this displays the 1rst integer from your list.
echo ${#array[*]} displays the number of integers

How does one go about forcing mozilla to actually use the real jre that is properly installed and usable on one's system? I never want to see that stupid you need the java2 plugin window ever again and I want mozilla to use the full-real-existent jre I have installed. I cannot find a way to do it in the crippled configuration/settings windows provided for mozilla. As a matter of fact, I can't find any mention of anything java or javascript, for that matter. Anyone? All you should need to do is link or copy the plugin from you jre1.3.1 installation to the mozilla plugin directory in a similar fashion to: cd /usr/local/mozilla/plugins ln -s /usr/local/jre1.3.1_01/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so or cp /usr/local/jre1.3.1_01/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/local/mozilla/plugins and then restart mozilla for the new plugin to be recognized.

The others just entirely killed sound that had previously worked. The Linux sound HOWTO just says (basically) to copy /dev/audio or /dev/dsp, but neither of those do anything useful at all :-( I guess that my embarrassingly simple question isn't really embarrassingly simple at all. Everything else to do with sound seems to work fine (I can play CDs, listen to WAV or MP3 files or grab RealAudio off the Web). So I'm sure it isn't anything silly like a fundamental configuration problem. It may, of course, be a fundamental lack of understanding problem :-) I remember way back in LM 7.0 getting sound to work using sox without any trouble.

You can mv the files anywhere in your home dir you have write permissions, but you can't seem to move to say /tmp It would seem that if an admin put a specific file in your home dir that they didn't want you to modify, you could either move it or even replace it with this setup. I'll admit this would be a little odd, but still a bug. Since I'm not sure who to report this too, someone please let me know. Julia not a bug! if you use umask 022 on /home, /home/user is 755 user user so, user can modify/erase all files in its $HOME. directory's permissions have prior on the files permissions if root wants to put a file in /home/user that he doesn't want user to modify, he has to put it in a specific dir which he is the owner. try this as root: cd /home/user mkdir test # test must be 755 root root cd test touch test1 touch test2 now try as user to mv or rm test1 and test2 in /home/user/test. bye jipe -- Le syndicalisme est à la société moderne ce que le mercure-au-chrome est à la jambe de bois.

If so, it is pretty normal. So is the eventual data corruption you will get

Also, what directory are they in? Thanks very much! Mike :) just type alias to see the list. you can set an alias by typing something like that: alias ME='my command line' this allowes you to use ME in your current session. to set permanently an alias, add the line in $HOME/.bashrc or $HOME/.bash_profile you can do lot of things with aliases. that's what i use to burn my cds... bye jipe Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [expert] locale and Mandrake Freq 3

And it´s not only this message, but all menus are in English instead of German. With Mandrake 8.0 Freq 2 there were no problems. Is there any bug in glibc-2.2.3-2mdk? I have read some similar reports in the mail lists, but there was no satisfying answer. And another question: How can I set locale? Is it really by editing /etc/sysconfig/i18n? Thank you for any hints! Uli the solution i used: update glibc - glibc-2.2.4-2mdk glibc-devel - glibc-devel-2.2.4-2mdk locales - locales-2.3.1.2-4mdk locales-en - locales-en-2.3.1.2-4mdk locales-fr - locales-fr-2.3.1.2-4mdk #maybe you'll prefer locales-de ;-) bye jipe Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Nope. "cancel" is the same as "lprm", and that's the first thing I always try, in the forlorn hope that perhaps this time it will work. Yes, the queue status says that it's empty but the printer keeps spewing out the screwed-up binary.It works fine (here) for removing yet-to-be-printed jobs from the queue, but not for ones that have started printing.
