[gentoo-user] OT: sed on the commandline
Hi, I am trying to instruct sed to insert a line of text before a matched line. The whole command should fit into one physical (command) line. Is it possible? And how is it possible? Thank you very much for any hint in advance! Best regards, mcc

Best regards, mcc There's nothing special about a line, it's just a bunch of characters that end with a newline (itself just a character). But you can't insert stuff at arbitrary points, you can only replace stuff with other stuff. You can replace the start of line marker (^), so do this: $ cat sed.txt 1 2 $ cat sed.txt | sed -e 's/^/a\n/g' a 1 a 2 I replaced start of line with a and a newline.

Make a file of phone numbers. $ cat phone.txt 555-1212 555-1234 555- Then run the following command to prefix the number with 212 and a dash. $ sed 's/555/212-/' phone.txt 212-555-1212 212-555-1234 212-555- Try moving the ampersand around the replacement string. If moved to the beginning it transposes the numbers. Note: The dash was moved to make the result look better, it has nothing to do with the command. $ sed 's/555/-212/' phone.txt 555-212-1212 555-212-1234 555-212-

Currently the Blender folks did a change in the registration code for Blender scripts. The MakeHuman folks provide a script, which is needed to load the putput of MakeHuman into Blender. This script isn't new registration ready. I have to do the following the changes to the Makehuman script (a handfull): change this: === def registration() script specific stuff def unregistration() script specific stuff into this: = def registration() bpy.utils.register_module(__name__) script specific stuff def unregistration() bpy.utils.unregister_module(__name__) script specific stuff until the MakeHuman folks have time to integrate my patch into their code. Since I do update often I would have to edit all these files by hand every time. It would be much more time saveing, if a sed-oneliner from the commandline, saved into the shell history, could do this for me I googled a little in beforehand and found the a command, but I didn't managed to get it working for me...so...

Afterwards run hp-setup without options to add them again. But you are right the message should be more verbose. -- Daniel Pielmeier signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

[gentoo-user] Anyone get Acer laptop internal microphone working in Gentoo?
I got an Acer Aspire 4551-2728 earlier this year, and now I have some spare time on my hands, and I've got it almost 100% functional under 64 bit Gentoo linux. The networking was dead easy, as was the video (once I was pointed to the instructions). The webcam took some digging, but I figured it out, with Mr. Google's help. The last item that doesn't work yet is the internal microphone. Has anybody gotten an internal microphone on any Acer laptop working? My Google searches have found a couple of references to it works out of the box under some versions of Ubuntu, but no technical details, which doesn't really help.
