[SOLVED] Where are all of the Man pages?

On my system, man-pages do not exist for many things e.g. bash commands like ls, rm, cp & cd are missing?
The directory /usr/man/ has the following folders: man1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8
It would seem that at least numbers 2 & 6 are missing.
I have reinstalled the man utility (though it already worked) & man-pages, though it doesn't give me access to the bash commands that I know man pages exist for.
Any ideas?

/etc/profile is read by the login shells only. So you could have got the desired effect w/o a reboot by doing either:
su -
OR...
konsole --ls #starting it as a login shell
What I needed to know was not just the line to add & where, which first answer told me, but also the line to delete, which second useful answer told me. I had logged out after adding the line, & decided after the removing the offending line that I will reboot for good measure!
Thanks for your confirmation that a logout would have done the job.

Where are all of the packages at

hello;
according to
adobe
livedocs, there are 2 major packages inherent to flash ( as
opposed to the packages that individual flash developers might
create and distribute via internet, etc. )
1 - the
flash package, such as import flash.filters;
2 - the
mx package , such as import mx.rpc;
I would think that with my download/install of flash cs3, I
would have gotten these packages, in whole, located at the flash
cs3 default classpath location, namely: $(AppConfig)/ActionScript
3.0/Classes ;
but that is not the case;
any thoughts;
thanks
dsdsdsdsd

dzedward, thanks for responding;
but where are they?? - shouldn't they have been downloaded
along with my flashcs3 download - and shouldn't they be located in
the directory identified by the default location:
$(AppConfig)/ActionScript 3.0/Classes
thanks

[Solved] Where are all the different modes in gcalctool 6.6.2?

This is what I see. I don't know how to turn on the scientific mode there.
Thank you, guys. You and many other people make me love Arch forums I have to say that gnome 3.6 is very non-intuitive. Who can imagine that the menu for a small window at the corner of the 2nd monitor is on the panel of the 1st monitor?

If you are currently running gnome 3.6, it sits in the application menu (the one you get when you click on the application icon in your top panel in gnome-shell). Else, it should be where foutrelis has shown you.
Yeah in fact they still have design issues with two-monitor configurations, there should something to prevent single monitor behaviours when you are running a dual-desktop configuration. Perhaps is there an extension for this ?
Here it is :

Maybe this can help !

Where are all of the predefined bundle reports?

Hi All,
We have ZCM 10.1.3 installed on Server 2003.
I am reading the "System Reporting Reference" documentation and I found a bunch of references to pre-defined reports for things like Bundle deployment. (pages 14 & 15).
I can't find these reports anywhere under the REPORTING Menu. Has anyone seen these reports anywhere?
Thanks,
Andrew

Where are all the print settings for my HP Officejet 5510 in Mac OS X 10.8.2?? I only have Fast, Fast B & W, and Best. I want Normal so that it looks good but doesn't print so slowly. Help.

Hi,
Change the print settings manually by clicking the lowest drop-down within the print dialog (e.g. the application name, Copies & Pages within MSOffice.
Select Type/Quality and set the print quality as Normal.
You may seve the settings as a Preset from the Presets drop-down menu.

Very many thanks Niel. My problem solved in less than five minutes. I've never had to use that command before. I found the folder and copied it - but I'm still no clearer as to where it was!
Thanks again

How to export all the man page in mac to PDF?

How to export all the man page in mac to PDF?
I have tried "man -t cat | pstopdf -i -o ~/Desktop/cat.pdf" but this only output one page.
How could I dump all the man pages to pdf with one or few command as possible?
The other question is, I copy all the man pages form /usr/share/man, they are .gz.
After I unzip them and open with less, texteidtor, ultraeditor, all the formate are weird.
Is there any tool could open them with the right formate as man does?
I know the man in linux uses the tool "less" to read man pages. How about mac???

I use Bwana. Copy all and paste into TextEdit. Then, save it. This is the beginning for diskutil:
diskutil(8)               BSD System Manager's Manual              diskutil(8)
NAME
     diskutil -- Modify, verify and repair local disks.
SYNOPSIS
     diskutil [quiet] verb [options]
DESCRIPTION
     diskutil manipulates the volume-level structure of local disks. It pro-
     vides information about, and allows the administration of, the partition-
     ing scheme of disks, optical discs, and AppleRAID sets.
VERBS
     Each verb is listed with its description and individual arguments.
     list [-plist | device]
                List disks. If no argument is given, then all disks and all
                of their partitions are listed.
                If -plist is specified, then a property list will be emitted
                instead of the normal user-readable output. If a device is
                specified, then instead of listing all families of whole disks
                and their partitions, only one such family is listed. In that
                case, specifying either the whole disk or any of its slices
                will work. The -plist and device arguments may not both be
                specified at the same time.

I opened iPhoto and it opened as if i just bought the computer. Where are all my photos and how do I get them back?

I opened iPhoto and it opened as if I just bought the computer. Where are all my photos and how do I get them back? Luckily for the most part, I backed up photos on my flash drive, but I had just imported dozens of pictures from my phone. I reopen iPhoto soon after and the prompt asking how I would like to start iPhoto and all came up. I selected what brought me to the iPhoto I open up to every day only without any pictures.

Are you in the correct account that contains the iPhoto Library?
Did you ever move your iPhoto Library to an external drive? If so, and you disconnect this drive, iPhoto will create a new blank one in the pictures folder.
Check your computer to see if the "iPhoto Library" was accidently moved to the trash.
If you still can't locate your images, launch finder, and select "all images" in the source column. This will display all images on your computer. Be carefull not to delete, move or modify the images you see in this manner, as it will cause issues with good iPhoto Libraries, however it may help us locate where the images are.
Once you locate an image, click it once, then in the top menu bar, select "view / show path". This will display it's location along the bottom of the finder window.
Once you know where the image is, this should help you launch iPhoto to the correct library.

HT4623 I have just updated to ios7 on my iphone and don't like the look and feel of this update. Where are all the colors and texture of all the older isos, all those white background colors,yuk. Is a way to go back to the ios6

"Unlike". iOS 7 doesnt display well on my 4S. iOS 6.1.3 should still be supported for older hardware. I think I shall me moving to Samsung Galaxy now. Was really hoping hte new iphone would get a bit larger.

HT201317 I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos

I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos???

When photos are added to the photo stream album on a device (either due to a new photo having been taken or having been synced from another device using the stream) they remain in the album. However, the syncing process involves copying the photos to the photo stream server where they are kept for a maximum of 30 days, up to 1000 photos. If a device is reset or the stream is turned off or turned back on again (or in your case, the device was repaired), the photos that were on the device's photo stream album are gone and the only ones to appear are those that are currently on the servers (recall the 30 day limit).
If some of your photos are older than 30 days, then they are no longer stored on the cloud and hence are not synced down to the iphone.
Recall, photo stream is just a syncing service, it is not designed as a storage service for photos. Always sync photos to a computer for archiving.
