I read about the new fancy progress bar which was added to apt 1.0 in Softpedia and how to enable it here. However on running sudo apt-get update, I did not see the fancy progress bars. On reading the second link again, the solution explicitly requires you to use sudo apt update.
Hence my question is the difference between apt and apt-get. I thought they were one and the same.
I have tried to increment a numeric variable using both var=$var+1 and var=($var+1) without success. The variable is a number, though bash appears to be reading it as a string.
Bash version 4.2.45(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) on Ubuntu 13.10.
How do I delete the following directory?
I typed:
rmdir lampp
This error comes up:
rmdir: failed to remove `lampp': Directory not empty
Is there a command to delete all the files in the directory and delete the directory folder?
If I check with google, I can see my public IP. Is there something on the Ubuntu command-line which will yield me the same answer?
I'm working on a Ubuntu system, and my client has completely forgotten his administrative password. He doesn't even remember entering one; however it is there.
I've tried the suggestions on the website, and I have been unsuccessful in deleting the password so that I can download applets required for running some files. Is there a solution?
