If you are running the Python script in a terminal, this should be no problem. I made following script: [CODE] import os username = 'testuser' password = 'testps2010' os.system("useradd -d /home/%s -m -p %s %s" % (username, password, username)) os.system("passwd %s" % username)[/CODE] Running it, gave the next results. The …

Is this what you are looking for? [CODE] >>> a= raw_input() 10 >>> print a 10 >>> [/CODE]

You can also view the contents of the fstab file. cat /etc/fstab This file lists your disk partitions and how they are configured.

From anywhere on your system: [CODE]find / -iname "matrixcal"[/CODE] If needed you can use jokers, e.g. "matrixcal*". If you want to search case sensitive, use -name option instead. By using the path "/", you can search from anywhere, find will always start from the root.

You can kill the process if you want... [QUOTE]ps -e | grep firefox[/QUOTE] will give you the processnumber of the Firefox process. [QUOTE]kill processnumber[/QUOTE] will kill the process.

Did she use a mail client (e.g. Thunderbird) or webmail? If she used webmail, I doubt there will be a local file containing the contacts. I'm not a hotmail user myself, so I can be wrong...

Wrong forum.

The 'self' keyword refers to the object (your class). In your first example, you define a TextCtrl object and assign it to 'FilePathTextBox'. So in the constructor '__init__', 'FilePathTextBox' is a TextCtrl object. In the OnClick method 'FilePathTextBox' is not recognised as a TextCtrl object, but as a local variable …

First of all, I would use a Python string function 'translate'... then a 'split' with a space as argument... an example in the Python interpreter... [CODE] >>> mystr = "Hello, test" >>> newstr = mystr.translate(None, 'les') >>> print newstr Ho, tt >>> splitstr = newstr.split(' ') >>> print splitstr ['Ho,', …

What do you want to do with the server? Mail server, file sharing, print server, DHCP, routing, ...? That defines the packages you will need to install / configure.

Why not using the repository? yum install gd

Have you tried to put your asg directory in the folder: /var/www/html This is where you have to place your website/application on a default Fedora webserver. I'm not an Ubuntu user, so it's just a guess.

Just an idea... The first 9 positive integers are: 1, 2, ..., 9 Their cubes are: 1, 4, ..., 81 The sum of these cubes is: 285 285 has to excluded from the list And so on...

I don't get the NameError error when running your code. I just get following warning, but the code in running fine. [CODE]/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/pygame/sysfont.py:139: DeprecationWarning: os.popen3 is deprecated.

If you are programming games in Python it might be interesting to have a look at PyGame: [url]http://www.pygame.org/[/url] What you are looking for is the concept of 'Path finding'. More technically, you might have a look into 'vector' usage (either 2D or 3D). LocationCurrentSprite = Vector(...) LocationNPCSprite = Vector(...) distance …

First of all: indentation would help. What is your exact error message? I'm getting the following error: [CODE]/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/_core.py:14450: UserWarning: wxPython/wxWidgets release number mismatch warnings.warn("wxPython/wxWidgets release number mismatch")[/CODE] Are you getting the same error when you try 'import wx' in the Python interpreter? Then you might have a look at: [url]https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=502608[/url]

First of all, don't you have to pass the complete device name? For a serial port, this is '/dev/ttyS0'. Edit: I tried to figure out your code via the error messages. It's a problem with integer - string conversion. Your 'port' variable get a string value. You have to convert …

Just a small addition about the disk layout. As pogson already mentioned, you can put all the directories into one partition, so no separate partition for /home, /var, /root, ... The installers of Ubuntu & Fedora (I don't know about Slackware) do however the partitioning for you. You can select …

A rewrite with a class. I used the 'raw_input' function instead of the 'input' function. [CODE] import random class Game(): def __init__(self): self.player_total = 0 def gameIntro(self): print('''This is a dice roll game. Dice are rolled, and you recieve money if you are equal to the total. Are you ready?''') …

The raw_input function returns a string. You have to convert the result to an integer. In the get_digits function, change this: [CODE]make_pass(int(le), int(d))[/CODE] This solves the problem.
