llamawithamullet | Hi, does anyone know how to sort files in a folder by name but ignoring "the"? For example I want "The Avengers" to be listed next to "Avatar" instead of being near the bottom of the list | 05:58 |
JoseeAntonioR | llamawithamullet: what I've seen is people listing files as "Avengers, The" | 06:00 |
JoseeAntonioR | for example | 06:00 |
histo | llamawithamullet: i'm trying to think of the easiest way to do this | 06:01 |
llamawithamullet | Ah, that's a good idea | 06:01 |
JoseeAntonioR | or "Flintstones, The" | 06:01 |
llamawithamullet | It would be nice for the name to stay the same. I think windows might ignore "the"? Its a shame ubuntu doesnt give you the option | 06:02 |
histo | llamawithamullet: sure you can there are many ways to do it i'm just trying to think of the easiest | 06:02 |
llamawithamullet | Ohk cheers | 06:03 |
JoseeAntonioR | exactly, I haven't really used it as I needn't it | 06:03 |
histo | llamawithamullet: there is the sort command but not sure if you could ignore the in the beginning | 06:04 |
llamawithamullet | Thats a shame. Guess I'll just change the file names. Thanks for the help | 06:06 |
histo | well he could have used ls -I for ignore | 06:12 |
anas | Can anyone help me with Changing 802.11bgn to 802.11bg in Ubuntu 12.04 as I am facing frequent disconnects of my Wifi connection | 10:01 |
bioterror | connect with browser to your wlan ap | 10:01 |
bioterror | and configure | 10:01 |
anas | Can you explain it ? I am a new linux user | 10:02 |
bioterror | it has nothing to do with Linux | 10:02 |
anas | What is wlan ap ? | 10:03 |
bioterror | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_access_point | 10:03 |
ButterflyOfFire | anas, do you want to change your WiFi card and install 802.11bg rather than b/g/n on your machine, or do you want to change your Access Point WLAN config ? | 10:05 |
anas | Actually I recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and was constantly getting Wifi disconnects unlike in my Windows 7. I Googled and found this | 10:09 |
anas | Code: | 10:09 |
anas | gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8192ce.conf | 10:09 |
anas | and inserting this into the file : options rtl8192ce swenc=1 | 10:09 |
anas | It was also written change router settings to the one i mentioned | 10:12 |
anas | That meant when I type "iwconfig" in terminal, in front of wlan0, it should display "bg" instead of "bgn" | 10:13 |
anas | how to do that ? | 10:13 |
bioterror | http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man8/iwconfig.8.html and "modulation" | 10:18 |
anas | In the modulation part some commands are mentioned, but not sure which one to make it 802.11gb | 10:21 |
anas | sorry 802.11 bg | 10:21 |
bioterror | my wife's laptop | 10:23 |
bioterror | titia@salamanteri:~% iwlist modulation .:13:20:16 on 12-08-20:. | 10:24 |
bioterror | wlan0 unknown modulation information. | 10:24 |
bioterror | D: | 10:24 |
bioterror | how about yours? | 10:24 |
anas | same | 10:24 |
anas | but when i type "iwconfig" then this: wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"ION@14th-Block" | 10:25 |
anas | I have to change that bgn to bg somehow | 10:25 |
bioterror | hard to say, never really had the need to do it | 10:33 |

ButterflyOfFire | if you Wifi card (reciever) is a b/g/n, it will display bgn, if it is a native b/g it will diplay bgn. This is normal | 10:51 |
ButterflyOfFire | your* | 10:53 |
ButterflyOfFire | if it is b/g it will display bg sorry | 10:53 |
ButterflyOfFire | The problem of wifi getting connected and disconnected has a link with the driver of your wifi controller | 10:55 |
ButterflyOfFire | Try to install the right driver (even proprietary or may use ndiswrapper) | 10:56 |
