    Solved Changing font size in XTerm after defining a list in ~/.Xresources

    I have solved this problem by creating a bash script called qterm. It spins out four XTerms using the correct faceSize, geometry, and initial positions on the display. Now I can just call this using krunner with Alt+Space. The Termius font is the font specified in my ~/.Xresources file. This...

    Solved Changing font size in XTerm after defining a list in ~/.Xresources

    /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm appears to be defining these font sizes starting on line 109. I wonder if I should be defining them that way, or the way I did in ~/.Xresources. Signed, Matthew Campbell

    Are you using the Ubuntu one on Debian? I've had trouble with other Debian packages designed for Ubuntu when trying to use them on Debian. Does this one work with Debian? Signed, Matthew Campbell

    How do I extract files from a self extracting exe file in Linux?

    I don't have flatpak. I already have vlc for Linux and use it a lot. My neighbor uses windows 10 and I'm trying to set up vlc for windows on my NFS server on my Linux computer so he can access it. Signed, Matthew Campbell

    Text file differences

    I was too lazy to download the unix2dos package so I wrote my own little program. This is a C program. This platform wouldn't let me attach it unless it was renamed to .txt instead. Signed, Matthew Campbell

    Solved Two or more permission groups for a file?

    I started using Linux back in the mid 90s. I've been using Debian since mid 2020. I had a Unix and C class in college using an Ultrix. Many files on a Linux system use root:root. I use root:web for my web server. This way root owns the files and directories and the web group has read/search...

    Solved Two or more permission groups for a file?

    Just use the -o acl option, along with any other mount options in a comma separated list when mounting the drive. You could try adding it to /etc/fstab. Use /usr/bin/chgrp to change the group ownership to a different group. Signed, Matthew Campbell

    How do I extract files from a self extracting exe file in Linux?

    Solved Two or more permission groups for a file?

    You can only use one group in the primary permissions, but you can add group access to a file or directory using ACLs. See setfacl(1). Make sure you mount your file system with ACLs enabled. Signed, Matthew Campbell
