After upgrading from Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 to 10.9.3, my machine (HP Probook 4530s) ran into AppleIntelCPUPowerManangement Kernel panic, and to my surprise none of the boot flags helped me to boot into the system. I decided to do a fresh install, but even booting from USB resulted the same. Then I decided to remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManangement.kext, but I can't even access terminal. Here's the solution: My machine dual boots Windows and Mac. I logged into Windows Installed MacDrive , trial version Rebooted into windows and opened the drive on which Mac is installed Did two things, don't know which one helped: Opened /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist with a text editor and added the following code: <key>GenerateCStates</key> <string>No</string> <key>GeneratePStates</key> <string>No</string> And deleted  AppleIntelCPUPowerManangement  related kexts from this directory: /System/Library/Extensions/

Recently I found a very easy and useful tool to access devices (USB, HDD, in-fact drive on which Mac OSX is installed), from windows. MacDrive : Once you install MacDrive, it will reboot and all the drives which are Mac-formatted will be mounted alongside the Windows partitions. Having said that, there is a BIG problem. ITS NOT FREE. But, you can use the trial version, when in need.

In this post we gonna see how to find size of a directory from Terminal. To summarise disk usage of each file, recursively for directories, we can use the following command du [option]... [FILE/Directory]... To get the report in human readable format, along with the overall summary, use du -hs /path/to/directory To find sizes of directories recursively unto a certain depth (e.g.: depth = 2): du -h --max-depth=2 /path/to/directory

Recently I faced problem using maven under a proxy network and by little research, found this solution. Temporary solution : Add the following options along with your maven command -DproxySet=true -DproxyHost=myproxy.com -DproxyPort=3128 For example, to run "mvn package": mvn -DproxySet=true -DproxyHost= my.proxy.host -DproxyPort= 3128 package Permanent solution : To add the proxy settings permanently, goto {M2_HOME}/conf/settings.xml and find the <proxies> section. Un-comment the required sections and configure accordingly. To set proxy without password protection, change it as follows: <proxies>    <proxy>       <id>optional</id>       <active>true</active>       <protocol>http</protocol>       <host> proxy.host.net </host>       <port> 80 </port>       <nonProxyHosts> local.net|some.host.com </nonProxyHosts>     </proxy>   </proxies> Change the words in

Hello guys, In this post I'm gonna show you "How to display and play with a list of recent commands in Ubuntu?". To check history of command or to get info about command executed by user, we can use the following command: history It will display the list of all the command executed, along with a serial number indiacating the oerder in which they are executed. Now you may feel it dificult to find a specific command among them. In order to do so, we can combine the history with grep. history | grep version This will display a list of command in which the word "version" has appeared. We can also execute a specific command by knowing its serial number from this list. After getting the result from history command, just type the number preceeded by ! to execute the command. To execute command which is at number 115 in the list, just type !115 It will run the 115th command in the history list. To re-run a recent command that starts with xyz, just ty
