How Are Linux Logs Created?

Hi Linux Guru's

I made a logging on my restart script for jboss but I keep on getting these characters Quote:
ESC[60G[ESC[0;32mESC[0;39m]
like the logging shows below:

Quote:
Apr 30 11:32:20 pogiako JBOSS IS RUNNING (JBOSS7_PID: 1234)
Stopping poging-jboss-as: ..............ESC[60G[ESC[0;32m OK ESC[0;39m]
The above result should only shows "[OK]" I remember I made some colorization on the logging but later on I reverted it back. I already looked at my script and found no more traces of colorization tags.please help

Hello

I am trying to log the Kernel level PPPd raw PPP messages (version 2.4.2) using Linux kernel 2.6.x to the /etc/syslog or /var/log/messages but the logging is not enabled for some reason.

I pass the kdebug 7 or kdebug 31 to the PPPd using /etc/ppp/options but the Kernel level debug logs are not shown in /proc/kmsg or using klogd or syslogd.

Can anyone please help me to fix this. What might be the problem?

Please reply..

Thanks,
Rakesh

Since this morning i have a problem with logging in on my user account in Linux Mint 17.1 Mate. After entering the password I get a black screen. Logging in as guest (without password) works fine.
How can I get back to my user account.

Hi I am taking a Linux class at my local community college, I have a laptop that I would like to use but don't want to delete the entire window OS. I have a usb harddrive that I can use at least 200GB off the hard drive. For class we are using "a practical guide to Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux,which gives you a copy of Fedora 19. I have tried to load the disk onto the usb hard drive I which is no problem until I reboot. I get a "can not find tocblock. database may be corrupt" then feodra loads with no problem. I can login but after logging in the GNOME welcome page shows up and after that the video screen goes haywire and you cant see anything. any thougts?

Hello all.
I have been using Linux OS's of and on since 1996. I completely gave up on MS in 2006. I change out a hard drive in my PC and MS thought I should purchase a new site license, I did not agree with that train of thought.
I found that popping in a disk and getting Linux up and running was easy to the belief that "Nothing could be this easy". It really was. The learning curve was encountered when trying to make Linux Fly. I recommend that everyone new to Linux or anyone with a desire to do a bit more than e-mail, catalog some photos or music get your hands on a Linux command reference guide and learn the terminal. There is so much to understand and do With Free Open Source Software and there are so many ways to access, install and configure the available software. There are so many resources for help and trouble shooting all things Linux however, here's the caveat; I really had to learn how to ask the question to get an answer that worked for me. General question will get you general answers and rarely ever was the answer I sought found the hodgepodge of generalities found in forums or Google searches and the like. I learn to be very specific in my question and the answers were discerned with less difficulty. There are really answers or fixes for the questions I have had concerning Linux.

I need to get into a laptop I got for my daughter at a yard sale. The people it belonged to did not have a clue what the password is. Can someone tell me how I can get into the system so I can load a linux OS into it? Any advise, instruction or lead me in the right direction would more than be appreciated.

I am an older, competent, windows user who would love to migrate to Linux. Unfortunately there is no easy path. Linux seems to be a program written by geeks who want it to be different, forcing a windows user wanting to move over to completely learn a new way to use the internet. Even moving to Apple is easier. To learn Linux is like forcing us to learn Chinese from scratch. That will not happen.

Unless a pathway, or a bridge, which is "somewhat" like windows is provided so we can assimilate into this new OS called Linux, I, we, will never really accept Linux to replace Windows. Even though we want to get away from Windows, there is no way to do it, because Linux is just too different to easily learn. I can play with Linux, but that is all I can do - play with it, not use it on a daily basis.
SAD.

And here we are, going to be forced to accept Windows 10 as the next OS, and I have nothing to say about it, for MS will soon kill Win7 like they killed XP, and force me to go to Win10, when I don't want to. I would love to use Linux, but the learning curve is just toooooo steep.
SAD

It would be nice to have a version which would make moving from Windows to Linux easy. The reality is, though, Linux is an OS for the younger geeks, or experienced programmer, not an OS for the avg user. Why can't that change? I realize this is an age old question, which has been around for years, but I'm realizing it is now becoming a reality I need to face.

Hello. I am an absolute beginner with Linux and would appreciate a bit of hand holding. I am building a small computer for use with Ham radio applications and have never used Linux before.

I have downloaded a Ubuntu build onto a wintel machine and created a cd. The drive in the PC is a CCD an I have only ever used one on a windows machine and then I didn't install it.

Can someone guide me as to :

1) how I should format or in some other way prepare the SSd for the installation of Linux
2) tell me anything I should be aware of in installing Linux to the SSD
3) anything I should watch out for in using the SSd with Linux.

That last one may seem silly but I have been warned never to defrag on the Wintel machine as it will damage the SSD.

I look forward to any help / advice that you may have.

Best regards

Hi,

Could anyone please explain as understandable as possible how could I on my Windows 8 open either single file or install (and use) entire software which is supposted to work on Linux and/or Ubuntu? I have absolutelly NO experience with Linux and have never used it. Honestly, I don't know if there is any difference between Linux and Ubuntu. I want to be inside my Windows 8 while using Linux files/sofware. The only solution I could think of are actually two but neither of them is useful for me:

1. Vmware (i don't know how to use it)
2. Rent remote computer (vps/rdp) with linux OS installed (this would let me be in Windows 8 while being able to use Linux file/software [on remote computer] but sooner or later I would want to have Windows installed there too)

Tried program Linux Reader but didn't work on my Windows 8. Although I would need solution for installation/usage of software (that can be used only on linux/ubuntu), regardless of details***, the current problem is basically related to single files only: I have two files, both in IMG extension. Don't know how to open them because Deamon Tools doesn't handle IMG. The problem is that filesystem in one of them is "Linux" and filesystem in another is "142". The error I am getting when I try to open them is:

"File with harddrive/disc snapshot is corrupted."

But this is most likely because they are supposted to be used in linux environment, hence such question.

*** when i said "details" I was referring to basically anything: type of software, size, purpose, whether or not it needs network connection, whether or not it contains logging in (username password, etc) requirement, etc.

The following solution for current situation (quoted error above) works only partially:

http://www.sysprobs.com/simple-tip-h...thout-software

I am able to open/run/mount IMG if I do what is described on this link (im basically opening iso in this case - see the website) but when opening the virtual drive, the following error message proves that the file can be used in linux/ubuntu only:

"Windows cannot access that drive. Drive could be corrupted. Make sure the drive is in condition that can be recognized by Windows. If drive isn't formatted then format it before usage."

Would need detailed instructions, for total beginner, who has never used linux/ubuntu, what to do in such case: how to use in win8 files/software that are supposted to be used in linux/ubuntu. Also answer on how to open IMG would be highly appreciated.

Kindest regards and thank you a million in advance.
