Creating audio from mkv:

First we need to create a WAV with mplayer.

mplayer -vc dummy -vo null -ao pcm:file=output.wav video.mkv

If you find that mplayer is taking its sweet time in outputting the WAV you may have to append the fast option like so:

mplayer -vc dummy -vo null -ao pcm:file=output.wav,fast video.mkv

Then we create an MP3 from the WAV.

lame -h -b128 output.wav output.mp3

To install linux guest additions on Ubuntu, you need to add:

sudo apt-get install dkms

to manually build the vb module:

/etc/init.d/vboxadd setup
  • Joining multiple avis together
sudo apt-get install mencoder mplayer
cat b1.avi b2.avi b3.avi b4.avi b5.avi b6.avi b7.avi > bloodspell.avi
mencoder -forceidx -oac copy -ovc copy bloodspell.avi.avi -o bloodspell_final.avi

Mplayer doesn't like the default video out mode (I suspect due to my Nvidia card) but seems to work ok for -vo gl2. I've therefore added the following to my .mplayer/config:

hippy@monkey:~$ more .mplayer/config 
# Write your default config options here!
vo=gl2

imapsyncing

hippy@ubuntu:~$ imapsync --host1 mail-emea.sun.com --user1 andharr --authmech1 LOGIN --passfile1 sun_pass --ssl1 --host2 stbeehive.oracle.com --user2 [email protected] --authmech2  
LOGIN --passfile2 oracle_pass --ssl2 --folder ZFS --sep2 / --prefix2 "" --useheader 'Message-ID' --skipsize --regexflag 's/NonJunk//g'

Solaris Tips

To create and send snapshots via zfs use:

zfs snapshot -r rpool@today
zfs send -R rpool@today | zfs receive -F -d rpool2

Adding a zone

root@monkey:~# zonecfg -z dev
Use 'create' to begin configuring a new zone.
zonecfg:dev> create
create: Using system default template 'SYSdefault'
zonecfg:dev> set zonepath=/zones/dev
zonecfg:dev> set autoboot=true
zonecfg:dev> verify
zonecfg:dev> commit


For fixing zones issues

chmod 666 /dev/ptmx

For Solaris zone webserver

pkg install amp
pkg install webalizer

Adding a ZFS filesystem to a zone (no deligation)

# zonecfg -z zion
zonecfg:zion> add dataset
zonecfg:zion:dataset> set name=tank/volumes/vol1
zonecfg:zion:dataset> end

For deligation add

zonecfg:zion:dataset> set alias=tank

For hot plugging a drive

/usr/sbin/cfgadm -cunconfigure sata2/0
/usr/sbin/cfgadm -cconfigure sata2/0

Setting noexec on the fly

echo "noexec_user_stack/W 0x0" | mdb -kw

Correcting quarantined zfs files

hippy@monkey:~$ /usr/bin/ls -/ v  .bashrc
-rw-r--r--   1 hippy    staff       1064 May 10 09:25 .bashrc
               {archive,nohidden,noreadonly,nosystem,noappendonly,nonodump,noimmutable,av_modified,av_quarantined,nonounlink,nooffline,nosparse}
hippy@monkey:~$ pfexec /usr/bin/chmod S-a .bashrc
hippy@monkey:~$ /usr/bin/ls -/ v .bashrc
-rw-r--r--   1 hippy    staff       1064 May 10 09:25 .bashrc
               {noarchive,nohidden,noreadonly,nosystem,noappendonly,nonodump,noimmutable,noav_modified,noav_quarantined,nonounlink,nooffline,nosparse}
