Please help parsing file [sed, awk, fortran, bash]

Hello all, I need some help fixing the format of some pretty strangely compressed data files. An example would be like this: 2883 452 0 7 1 6 2 4 6 10 7 Parsing rules: The first two lines should be ignored. The first column is the 'index', the second column being the 'counter'. If there is no se

Re: Please help parsing file [sed, awk, fortran, bash]

Hello guys, @richard, 1 this is not homework, a friend asked me to do some statistics on an experimental dataset he got for his masters thesis and the file was already that way. 2 i'm well versed in fortran, this problem however is not what i'm used to. I thought about reading the line bare in c

Re: Please help parsing file [sed, awk, fortran, bash]

I didnt mean to say this was oo programming, only that my background is in strictly scientific computing using structured programming in c and fortran. this rarely requires doing any formating work on lines such as this... as before, the file is from an experimenter who chose the format arbitraril

Some Questions with an All Text System

framebuffer resolution problem

Hello everyone, I've got a problem with my framebuffer (tty) resolution. Currently running debian testing (through linux mint debian edition). Grub2 works with my native resolution, which is 1280x800. The rest of the boot sequence runs at 800x600 or so. After starting X, my desktop runs hardware

pgfortran help

Hello everyone, I'm currently in the middle of some cuda fortran coding and I really need a bit of help. First of all, a brief description: compiling cuda fortran code (usually *.cuf) requires the use of the proprietary compiler from the portland group (pgfortran). I've got access to such a compi

Hello everyone, I'm trying to get an rt kernel working in debian testing on an amd64 laptop with nvidia graphics. Ideally I'd have nouveau set up to start when I select (in grub) the rt kernel and the nvidia drivers when choosing the regular kernel. Problem is, I don't know how to do that... Any

Re: skype?

It is shameful that, so many years after the digital revolution, proprietary formats such as those championed by microsoft are *mandated* by the industry, educational institutions and (in mexico at least) government departments. In fact, I recently had problems with my yearly tax declaration due to

Re: Trouble with Nvidia driver

I recently had a similar problem with a 9300 gs (which I understand to be pretty much the same + dx9 support or smth). Gdm3 would never start after installing a modded kernel. As a workaround, try changing 'nvidia' for 'vesa' in the grub config file and see where that leads. Maybe you can boot lik

Re: Is 1600x1200 screen better than 1440x900?

The extra vertical resolution could come in handy, although because of the aspect ratio (its much more of a square than the one you've got now) some of it wouldn't be useful when watching widescreen movies. Think about the aspect ratio as one of the most important factors when choosing a screen.
