I wanted to try using TOR on my new Linux Mint 18.1 installation. So I apt-get installed torbrowser-launcher and tor, then ran torbrowser-launcher. It opened a dialog box and showed me it was downloading the TOR browser; but when it was done, it said it had failed the signature check and that I may be “under attack” (oh my!).
I just noticed that it seems like the flag -e does not exist for the echo command in my shell on Linux.
Is this just a messed up setting or is it “normal”?
I am trying to find files that have a newline in the filename. But I can’t figure out what pattern to use.
In a program which I am writing I want to offer the functionality to open the directory where the file which I am currently processing is located and automatically select that file (so that the user does not need to search for it).

I am trying to set JAVA_HOME so that I can install Apache Solr with the help of this tutorial. I am connected to my server using ssh with root user
I’ve got a strange issue with my Conky setup:
I want to test different variants of TCP in Linux Ubuntu. I have Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with Kernel version 3.14. When I check the available congestion control algorithm using the following command sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control I get only: cubic and reno. However, I want to test other variants like Hybla, HighSpeed. If I run the menuconfig I can select the variants which I want and compile the Kernel. But in my case, I already have the kernel compiled so is it possible to have some Linux package which contains TCP variants as loadable kernel modules?
Is it enough to see getfacl giving no error, or do I have to check some other place to see whether or not ACLs are supported by the file systems?
