SysAdmin on large Unix machines (HP-UX, AIX, Linux, and lately solaris). I mainly work on Performance analisys and Tuning for problems related to Infor ERP LN and database (manily oracle). I also design applications and program them, currently in Java. I am absolutely unhappy with Java and I will start my next work probably in Python or Django.

@JoelDavis, I was not aware of those options before. I will use them. Thanks.

comment How do I configure my tty session such that a form feed `\f` character will clear the terminal?
@StaceyAnne and does minicom works as expected? I mean, clearing the display when receiving a formfeed?

Sadly, I have no other suggestions beside checking all serial settings.

These settings are the same as shown from your first stty command, so, yes, they seems right. Does minicom show the serial line status (connected or disconnected)? Does this status change when you disconnect the serial cable from the USB converter?

@StaceyAnne, my fault, since I tried it on a Mac, using a different sed (bsd instead of gnu). It seems that really gnu sed matches control characters. I think that this answer is the right one, then, since you may use it and filter what you read from ttyACM0 in order to translate formfeed in ansi escape sequences. Did you tried it? Does it really works as it should?

@jofel it seems that sed does not interpret control character. The following command show it: echo "\f" | sed 's/\f/formfeed received/g'. In your example it should not match the line while it matches the line.

At least, the xterm manual page at xfree86.org/current/ctlseqs.html seems to clarify the while in VT100 emulation a formfeed is translated in a linefeed.

I believe the FPGA is not sending the two characters backslash and f, but the correct control byte 0x0C.

the command echo -e "\f" instruct the echo command to send to its stdout the control character formfeed, while the command echo "\f" instruct the echo command to send a backslash followed by an f.

right. I already corrected my answer. Please use number instead of $number in the assignment.

comment How to get past “Loading Initial Ramdisk” hang after going from x86_64 to i686 cpu
I think there should be no problem in running this VM on the new processor. Could you please boot again the guest without the "quiet" kernel option in order to have more details on what the problem is? (I might be wrong, but I assume that a linux kernel is loaded, while the problem may be earlier.)

@Jmoney38 you may probably simply check /etc/fstab.

Do you have any non standard option for the target file system? I am referring to journaling options specially.

comment chroot fails with --userspec when chroot is i686
You are right.I did not correctly understood that sentence. Maybe you could also try a workaround like preceding your commands with a su --command 'sg $group -c "$command"' $user or write a wrapper script that runs inside the chroot.

I think the order does not matter.

comment Ksh Script to ftp multiple directories simultaneously
I believe the problem is due to the fact that print -p is meant to write the a process via pipe. It may be (I am not sure about this) that you running this via different pipes, since you run a different process that gets its input from ls command.

comment Local, regular file causes `stat` or `ls -l` to hang
Usually, you only have compat or files. If you also have db, than you may investigate further in order to find what is wrong there.

Right, but he might have long timeouts. So this is still a possibility.
