| ==Miscellaneous==
| |
| | |
| Writing down things I've learned. Some miscellaneous stuff are:
| |
| | |
| * AJAX example: Checks if the username you entered is taken.
| |
| * Javascript example: Drag choices up and down.
| |
| * The tool to take a screen-videoshot (screencast) is to install recordmydesktop.
| |
| * i686 (or i386) are 32 bit. Intel 64 bit processor is usually marked by _64 (really?)
| |
| * Add a keyword (i.e. g) to a bookmark (i.e. http://www.google.com/search?q=%s) to make a shortcut in the address bar in Firfox.
| |
| * [http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-intro.html#Top R tutorial]
| |
| * Vector graphics vs Raster graphics
| |
| * To rid the high pitch noise on my X61s, add options processor max_cstate=2 to your /etc/modprobe.d/options file.
| |
| * In order to have certain things started every time I start my laptop, I can add things to the .Xsession file and start the session with Xsession when I log in. I've added things like gnome-power-management and awesome (awesome should be at the end).
| |
| * I installed chromium by following [http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-chromium-google-chrome-in-ubuntu-using-deb-package.html this instruction].
| |
| * Change network manager keyring by Applications > Accessories > Passwords and Encryption Keys.
| |
| * Firefox forgets history after 7 days even though it's set to remember for up to 90 days. I went about:config and changed browser.history_expire_days to 90 days.
| |
| * Converting 3gp to avi: I had to do sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra-52 to get extra libraries. Then, a variation of ffmpeg -i input.3gp -f avi -vcodec xvid -acodec mp3 -ar 22050 output.avi
| |
| because it gave errors for xvid (change to libxvid) and mp3 (change to libmp3lame). Still not working but it at least makes the output file.
| |
| * Things to check out: gcommons, bak, [http://acabed.muc.ccc.de/acab/ acabed]
| |
| * In order to hide oversized background on a website, use in CSS: overflow:hidden;
| |
| * sh files --> sh file.sh
| |
| * imap folder can be merged by tagging all msgs in one folder and ;s (save) in the folder of my choice.
| |
| * tgz files: gzip -d filename
| |
| * baobao: graphical tool for space analysis
| |
| * ibus-daemon wasn't working. I couldn't start it by ctrl-space: 1) ps ax |grep ibus (this showed "defunct for ibus) 2) ps ax |grep X 3) restart X by killing
| |
| the process (That didn't fix it. See the next point.)
| |
| * upon Ubuntu Upgrade, the Japanese input stopped working ("no input window" in ibus). I uninstalled scim and it's all fixed now.
| |
| | |
| ==Inkscape==
| |
| | |
| * I wanted to use a landscape canvas: Go to File -> Document Property - Choose Landscape.
| |
| | |
| * I wanted to use text: Press F8.
| |
| | |
| ==Bug Report==
| |
| | |
| * I have trouble using Inkscape because it crashes when I try to use text. Here's how to get a backtrace:
| |
| | |
| gdb <path to inkscape executable>
| |
| | |
| (gdb) run [parameters (optional)]
| |
| | |
| # Carry out the actions to make the program crash

| '''Problem:'''
| |
| | |
| Again, I was doing [http://php5.seesaa.net/category/4118446-1.html this tutorial]. I got the update/delete working but not insert. Even when I typed in the values, it returned Missing Values.
| |
| | |
| '''Solution'''
| |
| | |
| I said name="id" in select3.php in the form part for insert3.php but I said _POST[ID] in insert3.php. I changed it to id and it works fine now.
| |
| | |
| ----
| |
| | |
| '''Problem:'''
| |
| | |
| I was doing [http://php5.seesaa.net/category/4118446-1.html this tutorial]. First of all, I didn't quite write down the codes right:
| |
| | |
| * incorrect update/delete versions linked from select.php
| |
| * <?= is good <? = is not good
| |
| * _GET['X'] is good but _GET["X"] is not good.
| |
| * Don't free memory in the php that is required_once
| |
| | |
| After fixing all these, I got:
| |
| | |
| "failed query"
| |
| SQL:SELECT Name WHERE ID =
| |
| | |
| '''Solution'''
| |
| | |
| Since I got the same message for both update and delete, I figured that the problem was elsewhere. I looked at select3 and after update3.php? I said id= instead ID= . I capitalized the id for bother update3 and delete3 and it works fine now.

| '''Problem:'''
| |
| | |
| I tried to write a php and connect to mysql in it but I got an error:
| |
| | |
| Fatal Error: undefined function mysql_connect()
| |
| | |
| '''Solution:'''
| |
| | |
| [http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum88/5216.htm This page] suggested that mysql isn't enabled by dafault in php5. I installed php5-mysql and restarted apache2 (don't know if that was necessary) and now it works.

| |
| '''Problem:'''
| |
| | |
| I restarted my computer because I couldn't start gimp unless I was root. Clint told me that I should sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart , which basically restarted my whole computer. Since then, I couldn't use mysql because I kept getting this error:
| |
| | |
| ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
| |
| | |
| '''Solution:'''
| |
| | |
| I followed [http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?11,42525,46765#msg-46765 this] and restarted mysql by:
| |
| | |
| /etc/init.d/mysql restart
| |
| | |
| But it fails. It seems like I touched my.cnf and didn't restart mysql, so when my computer restarted, it incorporated the changes I made in my.cnf and mysql stopped working. I reinstalled mysql-server through apt-get, restarted mysql and now it's fine.

| [http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/creating-database.html mysql]
| |
| | |
| 1. Check grants for 'user'@'localhost' in mysql:
| |
| | |
| mysql> show grants for 'user'@'localhost';
| |
| | |
| 2. Log into mysql as root (has all privileges) and change grants for a specific user:
| |
| | |
| mysql> grant all privileges on *.* to 'user'@'localhost';
| |
| | |
| Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
| |
| | |
| 3. Log back into mysql as user (now has all privileges) and try creating a new database again.

| '''Problem:'''
| |
| | |
| I wanted to create a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_markup wiki table] from CIA's Infant Mortality Rate [https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2091rank.html ranking] data. I didn't want to change to the wiki table format, so I decided to write a python code.
| |
| | |
| '''Solutions:'''
| |
| | |
| I had to read a text file, make a list for each line, take out the words I need, and print in the wiki table format. I did the following first to change tabs to commas but that was probably not necessary:
| |
|
| |
| sed 's/\\t/,/g' Desktop/rawIMRdata.text > rawIMRdata2.text
| |
| | |
| | |
| When I forgot /g, it only outputted the last line.
| |
| | |
| Here's the python code:
| |
| | |
| imr_data = open("rawIMRdata6.text")
| |
| #f = file("imr_data","r")
| |
| print '''{| class="wikitable" border="1" \n|- \n! Ranking 1 \n! Country 2 \n! IMR \n'''
| |
| for line in imr_data.readlines():
| |
| # To make a list for each line from text file:
| |
| a = line.split(',')
| |
| #print a and strip the space after each word
| |
| one = a[0].strip()
| |
| two = a[1].strip()
| |
| three = a[3].strip()
| |
| combined = '|-\n|' + one + '\n|' + two + '\n|' + three
| |
| print combined
| |
| print r'''|}'''

| '''Problem:'''
| |
| | |
| It worked mostly ok but I couldn't go further than the second to the last coding box on page 4. I kept getting long error messages.
| |
| | |
| '''Solution:'''
| |
| | |
| [http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial02/ Django tutorial about django.contrib.admin]
| |
| | |
| 1. Check if I typed in the correct codes.
| |
| | |
| 2. Check if the output are the same everwhere:
| |
| | |
| Although the codes were correct, they didn't create all the necessary things, so it couldn't find the index.html.
| |
| | |
| * I went to setting.py to specify:
| |
| ** the absolute path for Template_Dir. Don't forget the , after '/path/' .
| |
| ** two additional Installed_Apps: myprj_myapp (where I save my project) and django.contrib.admin . Run python manage.py syncdb afterwards.
| |
| | |
| This created myapp_post and django_admin_log in mysql database.
