I have a Java application whose UI relies heavily on audio. On Windows and OS X, everything works fine; on Linux, however, the application requires exclusive access to the sound device, a LineUnavailableException is thrown and no sound is heard. I'm using Kubuntu 9.10.
This means that no other application can play audio while the progra...

Hi,
I have a machine at work from wich I'd like to run a script that gathers some information about other machines. I want to do it in Ruby, since it's what I know best, but I've ran into some problems, all apparently due to the same reason: I don't have root access in this machine.
So what I did was: Download ruby source, configure (w...
Hi all:
I would like some help... I'm having trouble coming up with the syntax to generate coverage data from multiple files using lcov in Windows.
I have gcov, lcov and genhtml installed on cygwin (I'm running this under Windows). All of those files are inside cygwin/bin directory. The coverage data I flush through I believe are per...
I'm playing with an XBEE radio, I'm using Linux (Ubuntu 9.10) and the XBEE doesn't appear to send NULL values through the serial port when using MY code. When I use the XCTU program(stock term emulator that comes with the XBEE on a seperate windows box), I see this output through the serial port when a new XBEE joins the network:

The problem is that when I run the code below, on a single core, sometimes it runs correctly,and sometimes I get segmentation fault.

Hi all,
I have an embedded board . Can someone suggest an Ideal Linux distro for such a configuration, keeping in mind that it also needs to capture images in realtime. I plan to use Qt_Embedded for application development on such a system.
Thanks

I need to parse the output of "proc/pid/smaps" on a linux system. Running a perl/python script on this system is not an option.
I was looking to see if there's a bash script to do the same.
Alternately, it would also be OK is there's a script (any script) which takes in output from /proc/pid/smaps in text format, and parses the informa...

For windows there is win32api but I'm using mainly linux
For linux there is Xlib but does it works for keyboard as...
Greetings,
I was wondering if there is a way to use a timer in combination with linux poll/epoll API.
I already use epoll and it would integrate very nice with the existing code if i could make the timer to be just another epoll event in my queue.
A possible way is maybe, a file-based Timer, like
echo 400;now > /dev/timer ; cat /dev/t...
Hi, I'm going through the process of setting up SVN on my remote web server (Linux Centos), and I'm needing a bit of help to make sure I do it correctly. So far I've installed SVN and used svnadmin create to set up a repo at /home/repos. The plan would be to set up projects within /home/repos e.g /home/repos/project1 etc. I've also edite...
I understand that on Linux there is a kernel functionality referred to as "OOM Killer". When the OOM (Out-Of-Memory) condition subsides, is there such a thing as a "Process Resurrector" ?
I understand this functionality would be difficult to implement for all sorts of reason, but is there something that gets close to it?
Edit: Example:...

We develop Linux-based networking application which will run on multiple servers. We need to develop some solution for remote application update.
All I can think of now is using rpm/deb packages but we prefer not to lock this to some distro-specific solution. Besides copying files via SSH by some Bash script what would you recommend?
Th...
I am developing for a system that has an interactive telnet management console. Requirements dictate that we disable telnet access and add SSH instead. Changing the management console into a stand-alone program that we can use for SSH login would require a vendor to get involved. I was thinking of a less expensive solution that would ...
I have written a cgi-bin application in C that runs in a browser and allows the user to open an interactive shell and view & edit files on a Linux machine. It runs as the standard apache "www-data" user. I just added a login screen to it where the user types in their name and password (in a form) but I cannot authenticate the user using ...
