Please help! 

I've got this script that seems to work fine --the first time...  It is set to run as an hourly cron.

The first time it runs, it creates all the directories it's been asked to.  Upon the next hour, it should create another directory based on the time that I'm grabbing from 1 hour in the future...

It doesn't.  It will not create any directories the second time around.  here is the script.  Any thoughts on where this fails??

#!bin/bash

export TZ=GMT+1

year=`date +%Y`
month=`date +%m`
day=`date +%d`
hour=`date +%k`

#Data Partition 1

if [ -d /mnt/edvr/0/.audit ] ; then
exit 0
else
mkdir -p /mnt/edvr/0/.audit
fi

if [ -d /mnt/edvr/0/.audit/$year/$month/$day/$hour/ ] ; then
exit 0
else
mkdir -p/mnt/... more »

BOUNTY

Will pay via Paypal once it's working.

Here is what I am looking to do.

I need to walk down a directory and collect files names into text files.

Here is the directory structure:

/mnt/edvr/1/2013/05/14/05

That last part is /year/month/day/hour

I need to collect the file names for each day in one file, and then place the file inside the day directory and call it .list-%d%.

I'm gonna set it up as a cronjob that will run every hour.  The most important aspect of this script is writing the file.  If the script finds files 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 & 10, and file 8 is removed from disk, it cannot be removed from the file the next time the script runs.  It needs to only write new filenames to the list, on the hour.

I will clarify as needed.  Or, you can shoot me anema... more »

OK, this seems like a pretty sweet device, but after reading we can't help but wonder how much cash +HP dropped on +Pete Cashmore 's doorstep to print this bogus fluff...

The whole article talks about the device as is a tablet docking into a keyboard is a new thing.  Not once in the article is there a mention of the +ASUS Transformer.

I have a very unique need (I think) that I don't know how to accomplish...

We use a program that writes a file every five minutes to a disc.  Those files are collected into an hour folder.  Those are collected in a day folder.  Then collected in a month folder, and at the top of the hierarchy is a year folder.

I am looking for a way to scan the year folder recursively, and collect just the file names to one or several files.  I need to run it once a day, and have the new files found appended.

Thoughts?

Looking for people with #Linux skills at my company in central #Indiana .

We work almost exclusively with #Ubuntu #LTS releases, but #Redhat /#RPM experience doesn't hurt either.

You would be supporting surveillance appliances from HQ.

We need two individuals.  This is mostly to take the load off of me...  I am the only #Linux guy in my department.  I am overloaded.

Hi guys.  I'm in a bit of a pickle here.  Nobody's dying, but I'm still frustrated because I don't entirely understand how this works...

I used #ReKonq in #KDE 4.10 to transform Google Keep into an 'app', which works wonderfully, except for one thing...

Rekonq tries to use the favicon for the website, which didn't give me what I wanted, so I created a 256x256 icon for Google Keep, moved it somewhere into ~/.local/share and pointed to the file in the .desktop generated by ReKonq.

Here is the end result...  As the 'app' is loading, it shows the Google Keep icon, until fully loaded at which point it shows the ReKonq icon.

Thoughts?  I'm thinking this is a bug or limitation in ReKonq, because what I did was fairly straight-forward with no room for error.

Just had a co-worker prove to me that he doesn't know the function of a #hostname.  He holds the same position as me, so I hope he is paid less than half of what I am.

I don't know how many of you guys have #Kindle 's, but we just made things easier for you at +The Powerbase .  You can now send articles directly to your kindle using #Amazon 's fancy new "send to Kindle" button from the top of every article.

Though, none of of have a Kindle.  Who's gonna be the first guinea pig?

There was a rumor last year that there would at least be a couple of #netbooks  released this year, powered by the latest #intel   #atom  and have #ivybridge  graphics.

I can't find any, and I still want one.  Any clues?  Last time I expressed my interest in this, I was pointed to comparable 11"ers.  I'm really looking for a 10" device.  

Anything released in the #EU  or somewhere in the east that I should know about but can't find?

+Dick Thomas ?  You're across the sea from me, any ideas?

Due to a major power outage at the data center where +The Powerbase lives, we were done for several hours, on two occasions last night and this morning

Right before we went down, +Tom Nardi published this excellent interview with #Nvidia  employee and #opensource    #FLIRC  developer +Jason Kotzin .  Since being published, it was shared on popular aggregators such as #LXer  & #Linux  Today.  But since we were down, most people missed it.

Now is your chance to read it again.  Please share.  FLIRC is simply awesome.

Just had a little mini-fantasy about #plasmaactive  ...

I'm assuming that there should not be an issue with building #synergy  from source for #ARM  .  I would love to have a Plasma Active device stationary at my desk to compliment my regular activities, especially in the arena of email and #RSS  (or even reading a book between activities...)

Anyone have experience sharing a mouse & keyboard with a Plasma Active device?  If so, which one are you using?  What's currently the top dog in the unofficial Plasma Active tablet world?
