Multiple applications with the same name can be used with alternatives.
For example, if you want to install several versions of gcc, alternatives support
switching between multiple versions with one command.
ls /usr/bin/gcc*
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.4 40
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.1 30
If you have no hibernate option next to the shutdown button on Windows7, here are the
steps you need to enable it:
Run a command prompt as Administrator:
Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt -> left click -> Run As Administrator
Type the following command:
powercfg /hibernate on
If required, apply the following configuration:
Control Panel -> Power Options -> Change when the computer sleeps -> Change advanced power settings -> Sleep -> Allow hybrid sleep -> Setting: OFF
Now the button for hibernate should be available.
The command ulimit -a shows all limits that are imposed on the current user.
Debian default is 1024 open files per user. This can be increased (only by the super user) by editing the following files:
Uncomment the line
session required pam_limits.so
in the file '/etc/pam.d/su'.
In /etc/security/limits.conf, add the following lines:
username soft nofile 2048
username hard nofile 2048
Change username and 2048 to appropriate values.
The changes will be accepted after a re-login (check ulimit).
If the commands like Ctrl+Q, Ctrl+S or similar do not work in rtorrent, it is possible that flow control is enabled in your terminal/screen-session and you have to disable it!
Press Ctrl+A f in your screen session to disable.
Check the wikipedia article about flow control:

Rtorrent does not accept (self signed) server certificates, where the certificate hostname does not match the site hostname.
The following error will probably be shown:
[SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK]
rtorrent currently has no option to disable the host checking of certificates, so a small line of code has to be added to the curl_get.cc file (which can be found in /rtorrent/src/core folder)...
After the line
curl_easy_setopt(m_handle, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, (long)5);
add the following code
curl_easy_setopt(m_handle, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, (long)0);
Whenever you use boost xml_oarchive, be careful that the closing archive xml tag is written whenever the archive gets destructed!
Therefore, the following won't work:
std::string dumpXML()
{
std::stringstream stringstr_1;
boost::archive::xml_oarchive xml_output_arch(stringstr);
AnyClass& custom_data = m_custom;
xml_output_arch BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(custom_data);
return stringstr_1.str();
}
During testing of the Davical Calender Server i sometimes got a modification
failed error when trying to change Events that have been imported to Davical
via .ics files which originated from Google calender.
I analysed the access logs of the webserver which resulted from the Mozilla Lightning requests and found out that the PUT request
PUT /davical/caldav.php/someting/home/967096cd-c1a6-40e2-930c-04f328cfcc45/test@gmail.com.ics
contained a slash, that was originating from the UID in those specific events.
When using fail2ban with iptables, it is possible that errors occur when fail2ban tries to load the iptable chains...
Error messages are similar to the following:
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -m multiport --dports smtp -j fail2ban-rulename returned 400
The error codes can have different values like 200, 100, 400.
It seems to be a timing error with iptables.
A fix can be added to the /usr/bin/fail2ban-client python application:
Add the line
time.sleep(0.1)
to the function
def __processCmd(self, cmd, showRet = True):
beautifier = Beautifier() for c in cmd:
By default, in an inline equation, the indices of a sum are placed besides the sum.
This can be changed by using the \limit command!
$\sum\limits_N$
Babel packet:

SumatraPDF supports forward and inverse search when using WinEdt6 or TexnicCenter Latex Editors...
Please note that all paths have to be changed to suit your needs!
Get a modified Sumatra Version here:

It allows to specify the inverse search command!
This was the only way, to make inverse search working for me with WinEdt.
Following inverse search commands are used:
WinEdt:
"C:\Software\Office-Bildbearbeitung\Latex\WinEdt6\winedt.exe" "[Open(|%f|);SelPar(%l,8)]"
TexnicCenter
