Solved! For some reason it adds a space at the beginning of $TEST, so the comparison has to say: if [[ " $TEST" == "$OLDLINK/$file" ]] Everything seems to have worked. [edit/addendum] On closer examination I see the reason for the space is that, when defining $OLDLINK, I put it there.

I ran that script, and I think it's close, but no links get fixed. I added a couple of echo statements for debugging purposes: #!/bin/sh OLDLINK=" /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a" NEWLINK=" /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/batch2" DIR=$(ls) for file in $DIR do TEST=$(readlink $file) echo $OLDLINK/$file echo $TEST if [[ $TEST == "$OLDLINK/$file" ]] then echo "FOUND ONE: $file" if [[ $file != "script" ]] then rm -f $file ln -s "$NEWLINK/$file" "$file" fi fi done Here's part of the output I get: /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010103.jpg /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010103.jpg /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010106.jpg /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010106.jpg /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010113.jpg /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010113.jpg /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010121.jpg /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010121.jpg /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010122.jpg /home/javaguy/Documents/Photos/2003/2003 December/dcim/xmas2003a/p1010122.jpg Is there something about the comparison operator I don't understand? I'm very new to *nix shell scripting, but I do recall from other languages that comparison operators are one of the real "gotchas" for newbies.

I have a "gallery" directory containing links to a bunch of my favorite jpgs. I want to change the name of the directory that contains some of the actual files, but this will mean my links no longer point anywhere valid. Is there an efficient way I can update them at the command line, or do I just have to recreate them one at a time?

Here's my .htaccess file: Order deny,allow Allow from all That's all. By the main http.conf I don't know what you mean. The /etc/httpd/conf directory contains a commonhttp.conf file and an httpd2.conf. Thanks!

You don't have permission to access / on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. Does this look familiar? I've Googled it and found a bazillion clear explanations (at least they seem clear enough to me) of it, but I can't seem to fix it. Okay so my virtual host is pointing to something it doesn't have permission to. Except it looks to me like it's pointing to something to which it does have permission. Here's the entry in my /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/Vhosts.conf file: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin javaguy@sammckee.com DocumentRoot /home/javaguy/www/prod/benjaminalexandermckee ServerName www.benjaminalexandermckee.com ServerAlias benjaminalexandermckee.com *.benjaminalexandermckee.com DirectoryIndex index.html </VirtualHost> Here's my directory listing: [javaguy@dhcp024-209-107-057 benjaminalexandermckee]$ pwd /home/javaguy/www/prod/benjaminalexandermckee [javaguy@dhcp024-209-107-057 benjaminalexandermckee]$ ls -l total 16 -rw-rw-r-- 1 javaguy javaguy 447 Jan 26 15:50 index.html -rw-rw-r-- 1 javaguy javaguy 9561 Oct 24 22:24 yawn.jpg Suggestions?

Just a general comment...If you're having trouble installing the Invidia drivers, you're in very good company. It certainly doesn't mean you're "dumb."

Follow-up: This is wierd. I decided to play some Enemy Territory (in erie silence), and when I got on an emplaced MG and started firing, I could hear it, whisper-soft in one speaker, the first sound I've heard out of my speakers since I upgraded my motherboard. I double-checked all my connections and made sure that the speakers themselves were turned up (they're actually set at a level that would have been uncomfortably loud before). Then I did an aumix-q, and this is what it said: vol 65, 65, P pcm 65, 65 speaker 60, 60 line 65, 65, P mic 65, 65, R cd 65, 65, P igain 67, 67 line1 65, 65, P phin 65, 65, P video 65, 65, P Does this look normal? Then I went to play a regular sound file...nothing, even with sound turned all the way up. Not a whisper. Obviously something works. I don't get error messages, and Enemy Territory makes at least a whisper of a sound (my settings in ET have the sound cranked all the way up, too). So it can't be a driver problem, can it?

:D I have an Asus A7NX8-VM motherboard with an AMD 1.6 GHz processor. I get no error messages for sound. I've double- and triple-checked that everything is plugged in and turned up, but my speakers remain silent. I'm using the snd-intel8x0 driver, which the control center (I'm running Mandrake) tells me is the default for my card. Any advice? Thanks!

SUCCESS!!! A couple of things: To get 5336 to install, you have to make absolutely sure you have the latest kernel and its proper source. But also some kernel source packages seem to be missing a header file. I don't know why. Make sure you have the latest of both kernel and its source. Someone told me also make sure to uninstall all other kernel source packages and manually make sure they are gone from /usr/src. I seriously doubt that this was actually necessary, but I did it anyway. :D In the final analysis, though, my problem turned out to be hardware. I should have listened to my error message. The power was plugged in on the card, to be sure, but said power cable had a loose connection at the other end. When I fixed that, my "software problems" vanished. On the plus side, I learned a lot about rpm, how the system boots and LILO. Getting the 5336 driver was unnecessary and frustrating, but at least now I do have the latest driver. Thanks to all for your help and patience.

Yeah, I started a thread over on nvnews. I'll let you know if I ever get a solution.

Okay, I uninstalled the existing one successfully and ran the installer for 5336. I still get the error Unable to determine the NVIDIA kernel module filename.

Thanks! I'll try this as soon as I get home.

How do I uninstall the 4996 drivers?

I thought I made this clear enough the first time, but the power cord is not unplugged. And even if it were I should be able to install the 5336 drivers.

Doh! No. I rebooted with the new kernel before, but when I tried to install 5336 I got sloppy and let it boot to the default, which was the wrong one. :woops: No, I have not tried to compile anything else on this machine. I do code, but I'm a newcomer to Linux and for the moment will be happy enough just to get my stuff working. So I rebooted to the new kernel, installed 4496 like you said, then ran the installer for 5336. I'll just give you the tail end of the log file (I'll post the whole thing if you need, but here's the highlight): -> No matching precompiled kernel interface was found on the NVIDIA ftp site; this means that the installer will need to compile a kernel interface for your kernel. -> Kernel source path: '/usr/src/linux' -> Performing cc_version_check with CC="cc".

Okay, I did that.

Ran XFdrake again...no help there. I still get the same error message. Now I'm hearing about a new NVidia driver release...but if the problem is in my config file, the new driver won't help, will it? I'll hold off on that one.

No dice. Well, some dice. I got the kernel packages you said to use and installed them. I rebooted with that kernel, and as you predicted I was able to run the NVidia driver install without any switches. That's a huge step in the right direction. I ran XFdrake, then tried to startx. I get the same error messages, though: Graphics card is unplugged (yet mysteriously works anyway!), and no usable screens found.

Thanks man! I'm at work right now...can't wait to get home and try this. I'll let you know how it goes.

I'm already running at 800x600, so I don't know how it could. Okay, turns out I'm running 2.4.21-0.13mdksecure. (At what point did I make this decision?) So how do I get the kernel source for this? It really should have been installed when I installed Mandrake, shouldn't it?

That's it! Thanks!

kernel-source-2.4.22-10mdk.i586.rpm is the source package I have. Is there a way for me to verify that this is the right one?

Or maybe it was qwickview or kwikview or something like that. Anyway, I upgrade from 9.1, and it's gone! This was my favorite fast-and-easy app for browsing a directory of images. When I did the 9.2 upgrade it disappeared (along with kmail and a couple of other things that it never asked my permission to remove, but those I was able to find again in rpmdrake and install). Any idea where I can find quickview? I went into rpmdrake to look for it but can't find it. Anybody know what the rpm was called? I searched the CDs from an rpm with a similar name, but no luck. Also, I want the option for quickview to appear on the right-click menu in the Konqueror browser like it did in 9.1...will simply installing it make this happen, or do I have to configure it in Konqueror somehow? Thanks!

Okay, I moved the line about the driver in the config file from the screen to the device section, and still got the same result--no usable screens found. On the plus side, I waited to do a reinstall until I got some advice here, and as a result I avoided wasting a lot of time on something that would not have helped. :D Here's my XF86Config-4 right now (since runnig XFdrake and trying again): # File generated by XFdrake. # ********************************************************************** # Refer to the XF86Config man page for details about the format of # this file. # ********************************************************************** Section "Files" # Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together) # By default, Mandrake 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of # the X server to render fonts.

I'm a little confused here, but I did run XFDrake, and it still didn't work. When you say "In the above XF86Config there's no driver in the Device Section....it's in the Screen Section which is wrong," do you mean XF86Config-4 or just XF86Config? If just XF86Config, I should move the line Driver "svga" to the "Device" section? I'll try that and post again.
