Gnome Nanny

Today the Internet is a dangerous place for children! Leave a child alone in navigating the Internet is as dangerous as leaving a child alone in a very busy road traffic!Agree?!


Gnome Nanny is a project that lets you adjust when, where and how children can browse. This does not mean it is a check on the kids, like to think it is more a protection.


When - lets you adjust where you can surf heights;Where - to set / filter web pages that can refer;How - to adjust the duration that can surf the Internet;

Saving energy on Linux

If you have a PC or a server passing of the time with no activity on the disk, can save a little on the electricity bill if the halt. It's true that can make configuring power management on your desktop environments (KDE, Gnome, etc.) but what I present here is a simple and rapid method for manually configuring this mechanism, ie the operating system Bash.
The tool to use hdparm is used to but to suspend the operation of hard disks can also adjust parameters of cache, DMA, or even acoustic noise, among others.

- Installation: aptitude install hdparm  
- Suspend for 2 minutes: hdparm-S 24 /dev/ sda
- Check the condition of the disk: hdparm -C /dev/sda
- Configure the permanent suspension: vim /etc/hdparm.conf - And add at end of file the following code:  
/dev/sda {
       
spindown_time = 24  

}  
- Then you just have to restart your PC, or the service - /etc/init.d/hdparm reload 

Note: the sda is the disk ID in Linux, in your case is hard to see that they have, they can do it as fdisk-l and then with the tool Partition Editor (GParted). If you have only one SATA disk to start is sda if hda is an IDE. If they are not much inside it, then I suggest you to search or ask here on the blog:)

How to embed subtitles in Divx movies with Linux

It is unfortunate that the Playstation 3 does have the ability to read DivX with external subtitles, or captions to a text file. It's a clear choice from Sony, but fortunately there is no alternative.
I come therefore have a short tutorial that despite being targeted at Linux operating systems, it also serves for those using Windows or MAC. The tool I'm talking about is native to Windows, so to run on Linux, you must have Wine installed.

Requirements for Linux OS:
- Subtitles of the film format. Srt;
- Wine installed.

Tutorial:
1 - Download AVIddXSubs.zip;
2 - Unzip the downloaded file;
3 - In the uncompressed folder, run the AVIAddXSubs.exe;
4 - Place the folder containing the movie in the box - c: \ pasta_do_filme (see figure). Or you may specify that they intend to embed the movie subtitles - c: \ pasta_do_filme \ filmecaseiro.avi | c: \ pasta_do_filme \ filmecaseiro.srt. The pipe symbol (| <- this one) makes the division between the way the movie and the file path of legends.

5 - This small tool consists of two tabs of settings. Then I leave you a picture of the tab "Settings 1" already with some modifications. It is up to each experiment to obtain the desired result.

6 - Probably the PS3 will have to select the subtitles when they start playing the movie, for these are inserted through the codec, and is not always visible.
7 - Finally, if you have questions whistle: P, I mean comment, I try to respond.

Concatenate split files of type 001, 002

Today I leave you here a very simple way to concatenate files split, where normally the extension is 001, 002, 003, etc..
 

These files are very common in RapidShare or services of that kind.
 

My preferred way:  
cat ficheiros_divididos.avi.??? > Ficheiro_concatenado.avi

In this second way that I present have to be careful not to have divided other files in the directory where:  
cat *. [0-9] [0-9] [0-9]> ficheiro_concatenado.avi

find files by user identifier (user id - uid)

If you have a file server to Linux, certainly have needed to find files of a particular user, or its UID or GID, or even by your username. Here is this article, some examples of how futilizar the find command for this and other effects more basic.


Find files by user identifier (UID)?
find. /-uid 502

For user name:
find. / user-joselito

For identifier then the group (GID):
find. /-gid 1000

Locate all files with extension. Doc:
find. /-iname "*. doc"
find. /-name "*. doc"

Find files that have changed in the last 24 hours:
find. /-name "*. doc"-mtime 0

Find files that have changed to 48:
find. /-name "*. doc"-mtime 1

Locate all files with permissions 777:
find. /-perm / 777

Find files that have changed to exactly 5 days:
find. /-mtime -7

Find files that have changed less than 5 days:
find. /-mtime 5

Find files that have changed to more than 5 days:
find. /-mtime +5


Note: The difference between the parameter name and iname is that the latter is case sensitive - distinguishes the case matching. The parameter. / Indicates that the search is performed from the directory where you are.
