You cannot 'escape' the parens since '$' and '$' are defined 'codes' like ^ & and $. $ marks the start of an internal variable to be recorded, and $ marks the end, substitution in the output side uses \1 (or \2,\3, or as many as needed) So sed -i -e "s#('txt')#'(\/dir\/txt)'#g" foo should work. NOTE: 1) sed inplace replacement 2) using extended grep 3) for clarity, the usual use of '/' for the 's' replacement is changed to '#' 4) the global replacement marker, usually ', is changed to " sed gets confused when dealing with mixed ' and " markers, I suspect that this is your problem. So use the opposite marker outside the sed replacement, when you have one inside. -- R. Geoffrey Newbury

sed question
by bruce 21 Jul '16

21 Jul '16

Hey guys.. Sed question.. should be simple, but after stack/net searches, lots or trials.. can't seem to get it.. I've got a case foo('txt') foo("txt") I'd like to have foo('/dir1/txt') foo("/dir1/txt") Now. I do a simple sed search/replace if it just focuses on the txt, but crafting a sed that uses the entire input as a search due to the parens '()' is a bit painful! Doing the sed using the \( for the ( wasn't quite successful! for just the txt.. sed -i 's/'txt'/'dir1/txt'/' *files.dat sed -i 's/"txt"/"dir1/txt"/' *files.dat these work... any thoughts on how to handle the parens would be cool! just irks me that I couldn't see what I missed. thanks!

BIOS Boot partition
by Oliver Paukstadt 20 Jul '16

20 Jul '16

Hi I did a f24 installation using swraid on 4TB disks (predefined swraid because I am still unhappy with complex tasks and the level disk abstraction in anaconda, but thats not the point). I was not able to write bios boot twice (sda and sdb), it was only written on sda (there is plenty of space on sdb as well). Anaconda partitioner did not allow to define two biosboot partitions. Now I want to make the setup fully redundant (booting even without sda) and so I need to setup biosboot on sdb as well. With gparted I can create the 1 MB partition on sdb but it does not support type bios boot. blivet does not support creating a 1MB partion on sdb as far as I can see. Any other tools to write biosboot partions? Workaround might be: create an unformatted partition in gparted and copy biosboot to it (dd from sda-partition or is there a source file anywhere in the filesystem?) Are there any grub2 actions required afterwards? Any other ideas? Greetings Oliver -- Oliver Paukstadt <fedora(a)sourcentral.org>

application to listen to on-line broadcasts? [SOLVED]
by William Mattison 19 Jul '16

19 Jul '16

Neither VLC nor Amarok seem to come with Fedora. But late last night, I found VLC with "apper" and downloaded it. I got it to work for the two radio stations. It did not help with "Pipedreams". (By the way, Pipedreams is *not* a radio station.) Now this morning, the buttons on the second link (http://www.yourclassical.org/programs/pipedreams/episodes) for Pipedreams does work! The buttons on the first link (http://pipedreams.publicradio.org/listings/2016/1628/) still don't work. I'll open a new thread on that later, mainly focused on adobe applications. Since VLC worked, I did not try the others. I thank Rick, Andras, and Fred for their help. Bill.

by Angelo Moreschini 19 Jul '16

19 Jul '16

Hi, Audacity not respond anymore on my computer... That in not a problem for me now.. I only would kill his process. Using the command ps ax I get the list of the processes and also their state (S, S<, SN, SNsl, Ssl, etc...). I would ask what is the state of a process whose program program non respond anymore??? And also what (generally) the value of states of processes (S, S<, SN, SNsl, Ssl, etc...) means ?? Thank you Angelo

[OT] Usage of VirualBox from UnitedRpms for installing VB VM's in F24
by Joachim Backes 19 Jul '16

19 Jul '16

Hi all F24 users, Having problems to use a simple CD/DVD drive for the usage in VirtualBox from UnitedRpms: The correspondent storage dialog only accepts iso files for a virtual CD/DVD. Devices as /dev/sr0 are not accepted. No such problems with VB from oracle. Anybody sees this too? Kind regards Joachim Backes -- Fedora release 24 (Twenty Four) Kernel-4.6.4-301.fc24.x86_64 Joachim Backes <joachim.backes(a)rhrk.uni-kl.de> http://www-user.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~backes/

RedHat popup advert
by Howard Howell 18 Jul '16

18 Jul '16

Hi, guys, I was just looking at some links as I do everyday, and came across this one: http://venturebeat.com/2016/07/17/forget-learning-to-code-every-employe e-should-know-data-analysis/ Where a popup advert for RedHat popped up and covered more than one third of the page. Moreover, the close X was on the right top margin and quite small. I have vision issues, and it took me some time to find and close that ad so I could read the article. It's shameful for a high technology company like RedHat to resort to such tactics. Because we Fedora folks are supporting RedHat, it is also a bit of a reflection on us as well. Please guys, let them know that this is not good. At least put the X where it belongs, but better still, no popup ads!!! Regards, Les H

by ranshalit＠gmail.com 18 Jul '16

18 Jul '16

Hello, I am trying to install tftp on 6.8 version. But I can't pull any file from tftp. 1. /etc/xinet.d/conf: service tftp { disable = no socket_type = dgram protocol = udp wait = yes user = nobody server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd server_args = -c -p -s /var/lib/tftpboot per_source = 11 cps = 100 2 flags = IPv4 } 2. I've start the service: service xinetd start 3. I've chmod of /var/lib/tftpboot and its files. 4. I've also tried to disable firewall: # /etc/init.d/iptables save # /etc/init.d/iptables stop # chkconfig iptables off But I still can't pull any file from tftp. Is there any idea what's wrong ? Regards, Ran

version 2 liberation fonts install?
by Neal Becker 18 Jul '16

18 Jul '16

I'm looking here: https://fedorahosted.org/liberation-fonts/ I'm interested in trying these new fonts, but don't see how to install. I thought maybe leave existing rpm packages for liberation v1 fonts (dnf would want to remove a crapload of packages to uninstall them) and just put them in personal, but if I try the font manager (kde version I think), it refuses to install them saying that liberation fonts are already installed (which is true). Any ideas?
