I recently discovered “grandr” and its capabilities.  It worked more often than Ubuntu’s Screen Resolution program…but I had to use my mouse and see the screen to do so.  This meant that I had to the lcd before I did a stand by or took the laptop off the dock.

I then discovered the command line “xrandr” program.  It let me set up some scripts to switch the screen resolution.

• Use open source ATI driver (not fglrx)
• Set up your terminal to launch with a keyboard shortcut (System–>Preferences–>Keyboard Shortcuts)
• Figure out what randr calls the lcd and vga video card outputs with just xrandr
• Create ./lcd.sh and ./vga.sh and set them to be executable with chmod +x

lcd.sh:

/usr/bin/xrandr –screen LVDS –auto

vga.sh:

/usr/bin/xrandr –screen “VGA-0″ –auto
/bin/sleep 4
/usr/bin/xrandr –screen LVDS –output LVDS –off

Now after undocking I don’t need to be able to see the screen to turn on the lcd.  I just type Alt-t to bring up the terminal, then ./lcd.sh and the lcd turns on.   Jaunty is supposed to have improved monitor support, so I’m looking forward to its release.

Chase Yarbrough attempted to fix this by adding the svn:eol-style to all of the files in the OpenMRS repository recursively. The problem is that all files that were already committed from both operating systems failed with:

svn: File ’somefilename.ext’ has inconsistent newlines
svn: Inconsistent line ending style

However, merging continued to be a pain with those files that were skipped over.

Solution

I created a short script to recursively loop over all files in the root directory, run dos2unix, and then set the svn:eol-style to CRLF:

Download this script

#!/bin/sh

# This script normalizes the newlines in all files in
# a directory and adds the svn:eol-style property

# http://blog.eflow.org

path=`pwd`

# get a flat list of all files under the current directory
f=`ls -RlQ | awk -v PATH=$path '{ \
if ($1 ~ /.*:$/) \
path = substr($1,3,length($1)-4); \
else \
if ($0 ~ /^-/) \
printf("%s%s/%s\n", PATH, path, \
substr($0, match($0,"\".*\"")+1, RLENGTH-2) \
) \
}'`

for i in $f
do
#ignore the build folder contents
if ! echo $i | grep build > /dev/null;
then
        #check subversion for this property
        x=`svn propget svn:eol-style $i`
        if [ ! -n "$x" ]
        then
                # get the file's extension
                ext=`echo "$i" | awk -F . '{print $NF}'`

                # This is an "if list contains" method for shell scripts
                # check if ext is one of the text based extensions
                case $ext in
                        java|jsp|css|js|xml|sql|txt|properties|tld|tag|html|htm|sh)
                                #echo No svn:eol-style prop: $i . Adding now.
                                dos2unix -a $i
                                svn propset svn:eol-style "CRLF" $i
                                ;;
                        *)
                                echo invalid extension: $ext
                                ;;
                esac
        fi
fi

I committed all changes from running this script in changeset 5893.

#!/bin/sh

# input validation
if [ ! -n "$1" ]
then
echo “You must enter a url as the first parameter”
echo “Usage: $0 <url> <emailaddress>[,<emailaddress>]”
exit
fi

# input validation
if [ ! -n "$2" ]
then
echo “You must enter an email address to notify as the second parameter”
echo “Usage: $0 <url> <emailaddress>[,<emailaddress>]”
exit
fi

# the default mail message
y=”The following services are broken! Oh noes! ”
z=0

# fetch the page and look for the “200″ header
x=`wget -O – -q –save-headers $1 | grep “HTTP/1.1 200 OK”`
if [ ! -n "$x" ]
then
y=$y”\n\n$1 ”
z=1
fi

# if one or more site above triggered an error, send the email
if test $z -eq 1
then
echo -e $y | mail $2 -s”Server status”

You call this script like so:

./serverstatus demo.openmrs.org/openmrs someuser@eflow.org

Now call this command as a cron job hourly/daily/minutely and you’re all set!
