Using Ubuntu 10.10 I have compiled and installed the latest Ogre and CEGUI libraries. I can #include for example but when I try to add the CEGUI headers I have issues. #include <CEGUI/RendererModules/Ogre/CEGUIOgreRenderer.h> This in turn includes OgreBlendMode.h and OgreTextureUnitState.h but doesn't have the OGRE/ in front of it. ...
We're running Ruby workers across a large number of machines using Resque. Every once in a while, we see segmentation faults in our Resque worker processes. It's hard to debug these, because they're fairly rare, and we must run tens of thousands of distributed jobs to trigger a crash. Ideally, we'd like to capture backtraces and core fi...

Does this command exist for Linux? runonce --dampen 300 echo "hello" The command would take a command to run and optional criteria to limit of frequently it is executed. The option dampen says wait 300 milliseconds and then run the command. Any other executions of this command get coalesced into a single run. This allows you to colla...

I have mapped *.xyz extension to my own custom handler in asp.net and can run it on Windows asp.net. How can I do the same thing on mono (Linux/Apache - ubuntu)? I have this in my web.config: <httpHandlers><add path=".xyz" verb="" type="MyCustomHandler,..."/>... I also added similar things to mod_mono.conf and several other files but...
Out of curiosity. I've been thinking about the different access models often seen in *nix and the one seen in windows nt based systems. Is there any command or api to check if a file is readable, executable etc for a user different than the logged in user. For instance something like: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.is-executable...

I feel as if my server (ubuntu 10.4) has been attacked. I'm a bit of a linux noob. I run a website and a few rows of mysql data have been deleted. This has happened three times now. The auth log is empty prior to 2:00pm ET today. All that shows prior to my logins were a few cronjobs running. The data disappeared between 7pm and 10p...
What's the easiest/quickest way to interleave the lines of two (or more) text files? Example: File 1: line1.1 line1.2 line1.3 File 2: line2.1 line2.2 line2.3 Interleaved: line1.1 line2.1 line1.2 line2.2 line1.3 line2.3 Sure it's easy to write a little Perl script that opens them both and does the task. But I was wondering if it...

Im using header() for redirection but surprisingly the remaining code below header() which required database con...

I have recently gotten a faulty RAM and despite already finding out this I would like to try a much easier concept - write a program that would allocate faulty regions of RAM and never release them. It might not work well if they get allocated before the program runs, but it'd be much easier to reboot on failure than to build a kernel wi...
