Yeah, unfortunately i have zero experience in Perl (and only basic programming skills). I have found a few scripts (modules) that can transform wiki´s, but more code needs to be written. And unfortunately i cant do this.

I was hoping there would be something already written.....but its not looking too good.

Yeah, looking to do a large batch. I think it is more complicated than it seemed at first to me.

But, hopefully someone has/or stumbled upon a script to do this???

I have searched around, but everything i find seems to run text files to wiki. I am looking for something to convert the other way: wiki to a plain text document. I want to be able to view the text files on my mp3 player.

Any ideas???

OK, got around that one....now there is this one....

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no swt-pi-gtk-3139 in java.library.path

I thought it couldnt find the swt directory, so i added it to the path - (thought it might work, but didnt)

#!/bin/sh
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_10
export MANPATH="$MANPATH:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_10/man"
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_10/bin:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_10/jre/bin:/usr/java/
j2sdk1.4.2_10/swt"

I even put the file it was looking for (libswt-pi-gtk-3139.so) in the program directory hoping it would find it there....cuz i noticed on the previous release of this program it was included there.

Anyone have any suggestions????

Thanks again everyone for all your help....

OK, so when running ./configure i got it to get past the error about not being able to find ´javac´ by putting its location in the command (./configure javac=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_10/bin --with-swt=/home/jungmin/SWT).

Then i did the MAKE and the MAKE INSTALL and i didnt see any errors.....

But when i try to run it, i get this....

[jungmin@localhost ~]$ iriverter

No idea what it means.....can anyone help please????

Thanks,

Great...thanks. I download the SWT file.

Now.....

Do I have to specify a link somewhere to the actual file ´javac´?? Even though when i type ´javac´ at the commandpromt it works, does there need to be an actual link in a file somewhere to /usr/java..../javac????

what do i have to do the get the ./configure to recognize that ´javac´ is indeed installed and in the path???

I have installed the J2RE-SDK from Sun. At first if i typed ¨java¨ or ¨javac¨ it said that it wasnt in my path. So i searched on here and found a topic that solved that - I added a line to my ¨.bashrc¨. I logged in and out, now when i type ´java´ or ´javac´ at the command line they both work.

BUT, i am trying to compile a program.....but when i run ´./configure´ I get an error saying

¨configure: error: Can't find "javac" in your PATH¨

This is how it says to install it....

$ tar -xvjf iriverter-VER.tar.bz2

$ cd iriverter-VER

$ ./configure --with-swt=/path/to/swt.jar

$ make

# make install

I have searched everywhere on the net, but dont know what ´swt.jar´ is!!??!?!?!? The only one i can find is in my ´Azureus´ directory on my computer.

Any ideas??? This is what i am installing.....http://iriverter.sourceforge.net/index.shtml

Thanks

There is no RPM for Mandriva 2006, but given the updates to URPMI and SMART is it possible to use SuSe or Slackware binary files??

Nobody???? Is this not possible????

I am running MDK 2006 and KDE. I want to make Krusader my default file manager and do away with Konqueror. There are places in the Desktop manager to change other program defaults like email, messenger, but not for the file manager!?!?

Any ideas????? The is a thread about Gnome, but apparently its not the same.

Rob

yeah, definitely want a graphical interface. For myself of students....so it must be fairly easy to use - graphical is definitely the way to go.

Not exactly sure what I am looking for....sorry for being a bit vague. I have searched on the net a bit, but have found nuthing that is really what I am looking for.

I want to be able to connect to my computer remotely (over the internet) to access/play movies, mp3´s.....basically, be able to access and stream (video/mp3) files. It wont hurt if I am able to access all of the other files too. I am a teacher, so if I were able to basically get at anything on my computer, or in shared folders that´d be perfect. I dunno if what i want is a media server, or a remote connection.....not sure.

Thanks,

I am wondering the same thing about KDE. I want to make Krusader my default file manager and do away with Konqueror.

Any ideas????? Read the above, but not super familiar with the internal workings of Linux so not quite sure.

Rob

Right click the directory and choose delete.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Hahahaha....yeah, i know. I am wondering WHY I CANT hit the delete BUTTON??????

No.....the problem with konqueror is NOT that i want to delete files directly, but that the delete button WONT delete directories in the left panel AT ALL.

The only way to delete a top level directory in the left panel is to rightclick and delete it that way.

great.....using Krusader now - much better!!! So many tools and actions - make life much easier. As far as i can tell i cant link everything to it in KDE?? To make it the default file browser. I looked around, but it looks like konqueror is the only one and only.

Actually....it doesnt answer my question now that i try it again. If i select a folder in the left half of the browser (the directory tree) and hit delete, nuthin happens!!!! I have to right click on the directory and click on ´move to wastebin´. I CAN delete files and sub-directories in the right half of the browser (the contents of a selected directory) by just hitting the delete button - this is no problem.

What i want to be able to do is hit the delete button and delete the directory - in the directory tree (left half of the browers).

Is this more clear???

I think the existing method is still the best.      I would imagine you would be screaming loudly if you deleted some important directory as the result of accidently hitting delete or trying to delete a Directory that is important to the functioning of Linux.

Also it is most likely that a directory you want to delete is protected under root.

Please learn first how Linux works before you start wanting and expecting to use shortcuts that you are used to in Windows.

The OSs may appear similar but it is in appearence only.

 

Cheers.                                      John.

I understand what you are saying, but its very annoying. I am aware enough to know what not to delete.

Thanks for the suggestion tho.

Thanks Floyd.....answers my question perfectly!!

I am running Mandriva 2006....everything works well for the most part, just one small and REALLY annoying thing....

When using the filemanager - konqueror, it wont delete directories in the left panel (tree) when I hit the delete (or shift-delete) button. I have to right-click and select ´move to wastebin´ or whatever.

Any Ideas???? just really really annoying. cuz then i have to go and empty the wastebin too!!! I like being able to shift-delete things.

I'll repeat that writing to the system partition when the OS isn't running is definitely not a good idea!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I understand now....

The other partition is full.....The system partition has 7gigs free. I tried to resize it, but I cant seem to - i think its to do with the bootable limit thing??

I think what I will do is just split that system partition, creating a new FAT32 partition with the free space.

Thanks.

After all of that....I still cant write to that partition. It would mount, but it wouldnt let me write to it.

Any ideas??? NTFS??? FAT32?? How can I write to it??

By the way converting NTFS to FAT32 was not a wise choice at all.

Regards.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Why not???

Dont really know the difference, except that I can't write to NTFS in Linux. I want to be able to write to that partition from linux. The partition that is/has been FAT32, I use all the time at a 'storage' partition that both windows and linux can write to.

I have 2 harddrive in my PC. One drive has linux, the other drive has windows on a ntfs partition, and a second FAT32 partition which works fine and isnt an issue in this topic.

I just converted the Windows partition from NTFS to FAT32 in Windows - No problems. Windows continued to work fine after a reboot.

But when i boot up linux, it cannot mount that partition - The one i just converted. I am not super familiar with linux yet (getting there though) - I looked around and I think that Mandrake (Mandriva 10.2) still sees it as a NTFS partition and when it trys to mount it, it obviously can't.

It still mounts the other FAT32 partition fine - it always has.

Does this make sense??? What do I have to do to mount the 'new' FAT32 partition i just converted from NTFS??

Thanks..
