I want to write a generic (C/C++) library that I will use to develop daemons in the Linux environment.

Ever since I upgraded my Ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04 I can't start Netbeans any more, because apparently they are dropping support for Java's JDK in favor of OpenJDK. Well, problem is, my IDEs won't work with OpenJDK. apt-get install sun-java6-jdk is not working. I downloaded the Linux installation file from Sun (jdk-6u21-linux-i586.bin) ...
I've set up Eclipse in Ubuntu 10.04. I currently have the OpenJDK JRE installed but don't have the JDK needed to compile. However, the code written Eclipse still compiles.

How would you lock the screen of an active X session, through an SSH connection? My test platform is Ubuntu 10.04. The command "gnome-screensaver-command --lock" works when run from inside the X session, but fails from the SSH session, presumably because SSH doesn't have immediate access to X. Is there a workaround? ...
Hi all. I have an ubuntu server running nginx. I just tried to enable a vhost config and discovered that i don't have the a2ensite command. I searched with find and whereis and it looks like i just don't have it. I realise i could hand-roll my own symbolic link from sites-enabled to sites-available but i'd rather use a2ensite/a2dissi...
Hi, I am using Matlab to create a new file by calling fid = fopen(filename,'w') since filename doesn't exist, it should create a new file and give me a valid file descriptor. Instead it returns -1. If I run the code again however, I get fid = 3. This is being run on ubuntu but it apparently works fine on windows and I can't figure ...
I recently wrote a maze game in opengl (using freeglut) that works fine when built in Ubuntu or Cygwin, but when built on Fedora Core 12 with freeglut, the game falls apart, and my professor can't see a thing when he builds it on his machine (the OS of which he has failed to disclose). Also, on previous assignments, I got flickering eve...

I have a dedicated server that I use to crunch lots of data. The way I have it now, I can open a script with a process ID like example.php?ex_pid=123 and just let it go. It downloads a small portion of data, processes it, then uploads it into a database then starts again. Ideally, I would like to call example.php?ex_pid=123 directly and...

My bash fu is not what it should be. I want to create a little batch script which will copy a list of directories into a new zip file. There are (at least) two ways I can think of proving the list of files: read from a file (say config.txt). The file will contain the list of directories to zip up OR hard code the list directly into ...
