| 07:30.42 | cityLights2 | what is the right way to run a command and retry it as long as it exits with value != zero ? |
| 07:34.43 | Leeds | false ; while [ $? -ne 0 ] ; do SOMECOMMAND ; done |
| 07:41.18 | cityLights2 | thanks |
| 07:42.20 | Leeds | or, I suppose, just run SOMECOMMAND instead of false :) |
| 07:45.36 | cityLights2 | well , |
| 07:46.14 | cityLights2 | actulally I want to sleep 1 when SOMECOMMAND exits with non zero |
| 07:46.21 | cityLights2 | then try SOMECOMMAND again |
| 07:47.35 | Leeds | SOMECOMMAND ; while [ $? -ne 0 ] ; do sleep 1 ; SOMECOMMAND ; done |
| 07:48.00 | cityLights2 | just had to make sure |
| 07:48.02 | cityLights2 | thanks |
| 08:06.06 | cityLights2 | ok , here is my problem: |
| 08:07.19 | cityLights2 | I run openvpn to establish a tap0 device , I use the --up to run a script as soon as the connection is established |
| 08:09.29 | cityLights2 | this is the script http://pastebin.com/uZ3mrqmP |
| 08:09.53 | cityLights2 | and this is the output: http://pastebin.com/jBE8LDBd |
| 08:11.03 | cityLights2 | as you can see the whie loop is not obaied |
| 08:14.39 | ChoHag | while ! SOMECOMMAND; do :; done |
| 08:14.56 | ChoHag | or while ! SOMECOMMAND; do sleep 1; done |
| 08:15.12 | cityLights2 | hmm |
| 08:15.14 | ChoHag | [ is a command like any other and can be substituted. |

| 14:56.29 | mumperoni | I'm amazed - I found gllug again. Hi ... |
| 14:57.48 | Leeds | hi! |
| 14:57.57 | mumperoni | Last time I found myself here I was being assisted in installing Suze 10 by Mozrat - long time ago. Hi Leeds! |
| 14:58.27 | Leeds | we don't see mozrat around here too often nowadays |
| 14:58.52 | mumperoni | That's sad - a good guy. |
| 14:59.45 | dick_turpin | He can be found on facebook, his Grandfather died the other day |
| 15:01.30 | mumperoni | Thanks dick_turpin, but facebook? Nah. He'll show again - I should hope quite soon, really, 'cos my seventy-sixth was on Monday last ... |
| 15:01.49 | Leeds | ooh, many happy returns |
| 15:02.45 | dick_turpin | mumperoni: \o/ yay! I'm no longer the old fart ;-) |
| 15:03.32 | Leeds | dick_turpin: now you're just *an* old fart |
| 15:04.11 | mumperoni | I'm now running Ubuntu (9.10 I think) and it's OK dick_turpin, once an old fart, always ... - but I wish I could type as fast as you young bucks! |
| 15:05.19 | dick_turpin | I'm on Lucid now |
| 15:06.55 | mumperoni | Sooner or later I'm going to ask - where do I find those aerial-type thingies like wot are bunged in the back of PCs so i can use my new-fangled radieo modem/router? |
| 15:07.35 | mumperoni | Or. Or, I say, the same thing that supports Linux and is usb? |
| 15:09.29 | mumperoni | I DID buy the N-type usb Belkin aerials (one for each bit of kit I had switched on then), discovered a vociferous "We don;t support Linux" chapie but got a refund from Argos! |
| 15:09.47 | Leeds | well done |
| 15:11.59 | mumperoni | Now what I DO think was well done is the HPLIP setup, which allowed me to take control of a printer COMPLETELY (whilst unexpectedly). |
| 15:14.35 | mumperoni | I would now recommend HP printers for whatever distro as long as you keep within the HPLIP/Linux drivers - don't even mount the supplied CD! |
| 15:15.53 | mumperoni | Oh yeah - the printer was the HP Deskjet D2660. |
| 15:16.48 | Leeds | I've got D4160 (or something like that) which works well, except that I only use it about 3 times a year and the ink tends to dry up |

| 15:18.30 | Leeds | quite the opposite, sir - I'm almost paperless |
| 15:20.04 | mumperoni | Is the old prophesy becoming truth? The paperless office? I've got reams bought more than five years ago ... |
| 15:21.10 | Leeds | me too |
| 15:21.27 | Leeds | in fact, I have two reams sitting underneath my wii fit board to give it a little extra lift |
| 15:23.42 | mumperoni | Oooh - I've just found the "users" code and I've seen a load of names I recall from years gone - a very friendly Hi to you all! |
| 15:32.06 | mumperoni | I must away again soon - mainly to test out my having recorded how I got here - but after a fit of the giggles at the thought of a wii fit board in my environs I'd better calm down a tad or nine. Cheers for now, people! |
