Thanks a lot for the help. It gave me lot of thought.
Anyway, I have a little bit complex system here to apply these scripts. :)
Situation is:

1. I have a file named 11001_mtv_2200.3gp
2. I need to rename this file as  bv_001.3gp ... bv_002.3gp till
bv_020.3gp
3. And, also this renaming will be reverse from bv_020.3gp. When another
file after bv_020.3gp will come that new file will be named
bv_001.3gp ... bv_002.3gp and so on...

So, here I am facing jammed with:

1. How will I remove that big 1101_mtv_2200 ... and replace it with
bv_xx.3gp??

[Ilugc] OAOD (git)

2010-11-01 Thread Dhastha
Application: git

What it is:

Git is popular version control system designed to handle very large
projects with speed and efficiency; it is used for many high profile
open source projects, most notably the Linux kernel.

Git falls in the category of distributed source code management tools.
Every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with full
revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a
central server.

Features:

This package provides the git main components with minimal
dependencies. Additional functionality, e.g. a graphical user
interface and revision tree visualizer, tools for interoperating with
other VCS's, or a web interface, is provided as separate git*
packages.

To know more about:

http://git-scm.com/

To install in Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install git

[Ilugc] ARM board with 3.5 LCD / Linux

2010-11-01 Thread Arun Venkataswamy
Hi,

I recently bought an arm based single board computer with Linux.
http://www.rhydolabz.com/index.php?main_page=product_infocPath=99products_id=419

The bundled version came with a Chinese language version Qtopia. I want to
completely replace the firmware with a new port. The kernel source is
available with other drivers too. I am currently too busy to take up this
project. If any student is interested to do this, please message me off
list. I am based in Chennai. The project will involve building the root file
system with some tool and compiling and installing a kernel. There is one
version of the kernel which does boot and show messages on the 3.5 display,
so it is not important that the kernel be recompiled form scratch.

Regards,
Arun

Could not save the file /var/www/html/rite.php.

 @ Jayakumar,
The default file permission and the ownership of /var/www/html file system
is 755 and root respectively.  The location /var/www/html is called as the
document root, *Its the location w*here we deploy the web files for Apache
Httpd  server.  When you login as a root, yes you would have the permission
to have the save the files in the document root. The others doesn't have a
write permission , you can fix this my assigning the 'rwx' 777 [1]
permission for every body. This could by the command [1] mentioned below.
Reference for the chmod available at [2] [3]

[1] chmod -R 777 /var/www/html

[2] man chmod

My example was only for the filename he had given. He can then further
apply it as per his needs.
echo steps were to show what is happening though I could have done it
in step 1 itself.
