Sorry about that, I mean using shell (bash) preferably; however, if that is NOT possible, i would consider Perl.

I want to sort a bunch of lines by the last word in the line, however they don't all have the same amount of words.

Here is a sample output:

ONE: TWO: Tuesday
ONE TWO THREE: Monday
ONE TWO THREE FOUR: Friday

I am thinking about using : as a delimiter, however that brings me to 2 problems:
1 ...

works great -- THANKS!!!

Greetings,

I am working on a script and am having problems changing the delimeter that bash is using for arrays. Here is my sample/experiment script:

#!/bin/bash
IFS='|'
array=(one two|three four)
echo ${array[0]}
echo ${array[1]}

Here is the output:
./test: line 3: syntax error near ...

dmix has been enabled for a long time now; it's no longer necessary to enable it in ~/.asoundrc (you can delete that file btw, it won't make a difference).

What are your USE flags? Are the programs you're having trouble with configured to use OSS, or ALSA?

How did you get it enabled by default ...

you put it in your home directory

What i am saying is that there is nothing wrong with the normal xeffects, just remove the xeffects trunk because that stuff is typically extremely unstable.

I had to get an updated version of the widgets plugin. Here were the final directions that i followed to make everything work:

I had many many problems with the xeffects trunk tree (which is where it is pulling your compiz stuff from) try removing that overlay and going at it again.

Per your output you already have an IP address on there of 192.168.1.3, however, i had a similar problem, and the module you need to get your networking going is: FORCEDETH (in the kernel it is under the 10/100 section, however it still works with gigabit)

What is the output when you run dhcpcd ...

Thanks for the bump -- i missed this one when it first came through...

I currently use all of the above, and in RE to screenlets, you have to go to the widget plugin and manually tell it that screenletsd is supposed to be a widget (and then when you right-click the screenlet it will automatically ...

Is your boot partition on your in your vg?? if so, then you have some serious problems (IMHO) however if it is not, then you need to change your initial root= line from /dev/mapper/aardbei-root to be root=/dev/[boot device]

OK, so i turned off my computer and when i turned it back on, i checked my BIOS - M/B temp is 31 C

I run sensors after boot, it is -65 -- so apparently it was just a lucky fluke that once my box heats up it is the absolute value of what is being reported...

I did notice the following:

alarms ...

what is the exact entry that you put into your kernel, and what is the exact video= that you are using?

Looking through the log, i found this near the top (line 494)

Build GTK+ 2.x UI............. : no


You need to have the gtk or ncurses use flag enabled for a UI to be compiled per the changelog:

do you have dmix setup?

try using this for you .asoundrc:

pcm.dmixer {
type dmix
ipc_key 1024
ipc_key_add_uid false
ipc_perm 0666 # mixing for all users
slave {
pcm "hw:0,0"
period_time 0
period_size 1024
buffer_size 8192

}

}

in RE: to your kernel framebuffer settings, are you using vesafb or vesafb-tng? I had a similar problem and when i switched over to vesafb-tng and set the higher resolution in the kernel settings for it, everything started working.

does /usr/share/applications/pidgin.desktop exist?

also, can you emerge pidgin again and post the last couple hundred lines somewhere so I can see if there are any errors?

I also use compiz fusion, avant window navigator, and screenlets...

you will not get the most current ones from the main portage tree, you will have to emerge layman and then execute layman -a xeffects and then emerge compiz-fusion from there after you unmask it and its dependencies.

however for ...

i got it working now -- i mistyped when i was looking in the man page before...

thanks again!

Greetings,

Are there any benefits to having drivers built as modules as opposed to being built directly into the kernel?? Which is faster, more reliable, easier to handle, recommended?

thanks!

Great! I was hoping it was only a conversion factor problem :) and yes, the bios is reporting the temperature correctly.

I have taken a brief look at the sensors.conf (which is still pretty vanilla) however, i was unsure what to do to setup a conversion factor. I did see the compute temp lines, but ...

Greetings,

I got all of my lm_sensors configuration setup and now sensors is reporting fairly accurately for everything EXCEPT my Motherboard (which is reporting as sys temp)

Here is what it looks like:

Sys Temp: -65 C (high = +0 C, hyst = +127 C)

How is it possible for the temperature to be ...

Did you ever get this fixed?? (i am noticing the same issue with 2.6.21-gentoo-r4) Also, what did you put in your .asoundrc to fix this??

thanks!

Greetings,
