| DarthFrog | OK, I need some help from a bigger brain than mine. :-) The command "find ?.*" does what I want: finds those files that start with a single character (digit)followed by a . then the rest of the file name. | 00:47 |
|---|---|---|
| OerHeks | Darkwing, nice to know | 00:48 |
| DarthFrog | But if I use it to develop a shell script, viz. "for i in `find ?.*`; do echo $i; done" it prints out the individual words of each file name on a separate line instead of the entire file name on one line as I need. | 00:48 |
| OerHeks | err DarthFrog | 00:48 |
| DarthFrog | OerHeks: I figured you meant me but fumbled the tab completion. :-) | 00:49 |
| DarthFrog | My goal is to develop a shell script that will rename files from 1.*, 2.* to 01.*, 02.*, and so on. | 00:49 |
| DarthFrog | but not to touch files already properly named 10.*, 11.*, etc. | 00:50 |
| DarthFrog | Any suggestions? | 00:50 |
| OerHeks | DarthFrog, simular like this cd numer issue ?? > https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=124712 | 01:02 |
| OerHeks | c/numer/number | 01:02 |
| DarthFrog | OerHeks: have I ever let you know that you are the wind beneath my wings? :-) Thank you, that's exactly what I want to do. | 01:04 |
| OerHeks | I want to find a better playlist editor for cd's with a "Ft artist bla bla" or compilation cd's that messes up the database | 01:08 |
| OerHeks | Clementine is nice, btw | 01:09 |

| mrafcho001 | I upgraded to kernel 3.10 and I'm having a strange problem where my laptop's display is Black (not off), but external displays work just fine. As far as I can tell KDE thinks that the laptop display is working fine. Any ideas why only my laptop display is black? | 01:21 |
| akoma1s | mrafcho001: try this: for i in `xrandr | awk '($1 ~ "-") {print $1}'`; do xrandr --output "$i" --auto; done | 01:24 |
| akoma1s | or is it the brightness that is too low? | 01:25 |
| mrafcho001 | akoma1s: nothig is coming up | 01:28 |
| mrafcho001 | akoma1s: The dispaly is definitely on, i can see the backlight dimming and brightening up when I use my Fn key shortcut, but its just displaying black color. | 01:29 |
| akoma1s | mrafcho001: | 01:29 |
| akoma1s | does the mouse cursor appear in that screen? | 01:29 |
| mrafcho001 | akoma1s: It does not display, but there "space" since i can drag it around in what would be that screen's real estate | 01:30 |
| akoma1s | right | 01:31 |
| akoma1s | could you do a { xrandr; cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log; } | pastebinit | 01:31 |
| akoma1s | and paste the address here? | 01:31 |
| mrafcho001 | sure | 01:31 |
| mrafcho001 | akoma1s: http://pastebin.com/QFk1mBNU | 01:35 |
| akoma1s | thanks | 01:35 |
| akoma1s | heh, my initial command wouldn't have worked for you anyway :) | 01:36 |
| mrafcho001 | akoma1s: if it helps, with the 3.9 series kernels, everything works well, I'm not sure why only 3.10 is being uncooperative | 01:37 |
| akoma1s | ok, a few more questions then: | 01:40 |
| akoma1s | 1. which ubuntu version you're using? | 01:40 |
| mrafcho001 | Kubuntu 13.04 with mainline kernel 3.10 | 01:40 |
| akoma1s | and 2. have you enabled the xorg-edgers PPA? | 01:41 |
| mrafcho001 | I don't believe I have | 01:41 |
| akoma1s | you could try that as a next step | 01:42 |
| akoma1s | if it doesn't solve the problem, | 01:42 |
| akoma1s | try Saucy next | 01:42 |
| akoma1s | btw, is there some specific reason you're trying the 3.10 kernel? | 01:42 |
| mrafcho001 | not a very solid reason, but with every iteration my laptop has been working better and better, so I've kept upgrading | 01:43 |
| mrafcho001 | things like sleep, Fn keys, brightness, started out as not working | 01:43 |
| mrafcho001 | to working quite well | 01:43 |
| mrafcho001 | figured 3.10 would have more improvements | 01:43 |
| akoma1s | same as for all of us then :) | 01:44 |
| akoma1s | well, Intel's drivers are a bit fragile, so the best I could suggest is try, and if it doesn't work, just revert to the previous version | 01:45 |
| mrafcho001 | i've tried that already actually | 01:45 |
| akoma1s | is there anything on your laptop that doesn't work on 3.8/3.9? | 01:45 |
| mrafcho001 | its fragile, 1/5 boots none of the Fn keys will work, i only reboot my laptop when i upgrade kernel, so its never been much of an issue | 01:46 |
| mrafcho001 | but i'd like for that to go away | 01:46 |
| akoma1s | I see :/ | 01:47 |
| akoma1s | If you're feeling brave, you could try following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting , reporting bugs along the way. | 01:48 |
| mrafcho001 | so whats xorg-edgers ppa? I've heard it mentioned before | 01:48 |
| akoma1s | I usually just remap the non-functioning keys to their Win+Alt equivalents, eg. Win+Alt+F8 instead of Fn+F8 | 01:48 |
| akoma1s | it has the latest graphics stack, for testing purposes | 01:49 |
| akoma1s | if you're using the latest kernel, you most definitely want to use it | 01:49 |
| mrafcho001 | it doesnt seem to be helping | 01:49 |
| mrafcho001 | this is just the weirdest issue | 01:49 |
| akoma1s | https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=raring | 01:49 |
| mrafcho001 | i guess ill stick with the 3.9 series for now, maybe things will be better in 3.10.1 hah | 01:51 |
| mrafcho001 | akoma1s: thanks for your help | 01:51 |
| akoma1s | so, if I understand correctly, the Fn keys work for you in 3.10? | 01:51 |
| mrafcho001 | seem to work fine, though most of the time they work in 3.9, its on the occasion boot up that they dont work. Its probably a kernel module failing to load for some odd reason. Never had the insentive to look into it | 01:52 |
| akoma1s | I see, | 01:52 |
| akoma1s | that's definitely a kernel problem problem then, probably some race issue between drivers | 01:53 |
| akoma1s | sorry I couldn't be of much help, I'm usually more capable with the laptop in front of me :/ | 01:53 |
| mrafcho001 | yeah, i know how it is | 01:54 |
| mrafcho001 | thanks for trying though | 01:54 |
| mrafcho001 | its appreciated | 01:54 |
| akoma1s | np | 01:54 |
| akoma1s | have you filed a bug report for your laptop? | 01:55 |

| valorie | yes, works for me perfectly | 23:54 |
| valorie | the key once you turn on syncing on each device, is to open a blank tab | 23:55 |
| valorie | that's where you'll find the little "link" at the right-hand bottom which says Other devices | 23:55 |
| valorie | right next to Web Store | 23:55 |
