@terdon Can I tell it to skip the 2nd occurrence of a file size like in "Need to get 182 MB/182 MB of archives." That gives me the output "182 MB/182"?
(Sorry for bothering and bothering again. I just wanted to test the reaction on huge metapackages and on non-existing ones. Unknown package errors are processed well.)
@FaheemMitha My problem was solved by terdon already. I did not want to ask a question because I thought it is a very specific topic and will not be very useful for future visitors... And now the solution looks completely different than with what I started anyway...
@ByteCommander Oh. Well, fair enough, I guess. It's true, asking lots of questions with very specialised interest (as in some random bit of scripting) does tend to increase clutter on the site.
View on my livingroom table this morning (the shadow is from the binoculars I used, the angle of the table vs the sunrays makes the crescent larger than real).
@avidProgrammer Well, depends. If you already have a .deb file, it is.
It's just usually much easier to answer questions than deal with things in chat because posting a question will help you clarify what you need exactly.
@avidProgrammer OK, this is becoming an interesting question. Please edit your post and inlcude i) the specific file you have. I edited to clarify that it's a tar.gz but tell us where from etc. ii) Your system's architecture (64 or 32 bit) iii) Whether you can have access to the internet. If from a different OS on the same machine or from a different machine. It might be better to fix your internet issues instead.
if somebody asks why and how, your answer should have both why and how, not just why or just how (now the question should be edited to focus on one aspect instead of both)
it says: To get the effect you wanted, use the pattern only for the part of the path you want it (not) to match, just like you would for *, {a,b,c}, or any other pattern.
@cuonglm You always take downvotes personally. The question is in the Hot list so many people are looking at it. Of course you'll get downvotes. Why are you worrying about it?
It's more work, but when you vote it would be nice if it popped up a short optional comments field. You can't force anybody to leave a comment (you can't force them to leave a legitimate answer, either). But it would be nice to see for each question/answer a list like this:
+1 worked for me
+1
+...
@cuonglm There doesn't need to be one. Somebody disliked your name. Hates Fridays. Whatever. Also, what Braiam said, you're not actually answering the question.
@Braiam Huh? Almost none of them. There's a meta post on that wasn't it yours?

A major design update is now live!
Most of the changes are not visible; these tweaks go along with recent updates that were made to Stack Overflow:
We are moving the site's CSS to a newly refactored LESS system, so that it's easier for us to fix SE network CSS bugs globally and launch new feat...
but as it is an optimus, every command goes through IGP. And then IGP can send the OpenGL commands to actual Nvidia GPU if necessary. Yes, it's a bit strange but it's supposed to preserve battery.
Because of optimus thing, my graphic card is not recognized as the primary graphic hardware. Then I found something called Bumblebee. It allows Linuxes to use Optimus in order to switch temporaly (if i understand well) to the GPU with a software called optirun.
By default, linux programs can't know there is a GPU behind the IGP.
@Spiralwise Ok, so let's go with that. I actually have an nvidia card as well as an onboard (I think). Do you need to disable the Intel card to get the Nvidia one to work? Anyone?
@Spiralwise what is the output of uname -a on your computer?
no, i just discovered right now I can use Bumblebee and optirun i can run software through the GPU and not Intel. uname -a --> Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt7-1 (2015-03-01) x86_64 GNU/Linux
I already tried this. var/log/Xorg.0.log indicates that module nvidia is not found and can't be loaded. Actually, only intel module can be loaded even if I apt-get all driver i can find.
The facelifted page is 1030px wide (1000 px plus 2x 15px horizontal padding).
The old page was 980px wide (no padding).
This means: For a negligible net width increase of 20px it needlessly forces a horizontal scrollbar on 1024px wide screens.
I think that's a step back. Mainly because SO ...
Yes, it seems to work with optirun or primusrun. I found several article and tuto about them. Currently, it's the only way to run software with GPU in an optimus configuration.
Thank you very much, I make a big progress to resolve my issue and to understand how the hardware works in Linux
Approximatively, Primusrun it's a program that force IGP to call the GPU instead to do the work alone. That way, OpenGL 4.4 is recognized and used. I have to make more test (with Steam games by examples) but it seems ok now ! Thank you ! And yes, I consider my problem solved
@Spiralwise Ok, answer posted, or rather edited, since I already had an answer there. Do you have to run primusrun manually to get the display to work?
yes, i've read some forum and it doesn't seem there is a way to run X directly with GPU. The system has always to call the Intel IGP. I'm not sure of the mechanism but for now it's not possible according to websites.
Now I understand why Linus Torvalds hates nVidia so hard !

@jimmij No you cannot find that out. Voting is anonymous and stays that way, hopefully even durring the deletion process. Usualy such deletions are at the request of the account owners, but sometime spam or sock puppet accounts get forcefully evicted. Don't sweat it. Just let it go.
@terdon Even if you did know the mod agreement to not release private information would still be binding.
@Caleb personally identifiable information, it doesn't say private. I don't think giving away such information is a good idea, but I'm not sure I see how the act of saying who was deleted would violate the moderator agreement. Please enlighten me if I missed something.
Please understand, I do not think it should be done, but I fail to see how doing it would be a violation of the agreement.
I feel like I'm missing something, but I can't tell what.
