I largely believe the name of the program is irrelevant, but if you must know, it is Qjoypad. Anyway, I follow the instructions, but an error is returned "libXtst is required to continue with the installation". Well, I have libXtst6.
View 5 RepliesI have noticed there are a lot of programs that you can download for linux, but need compiling. How do you do this? I assume you need a compiler, which one do I download? Do I need different compilers for different applications?

As an excercise I am trying to build a Nas system which I can install into our Windows Active Directory at work and have user access controlled via an Active Directory user group. I have no need therefore for so many of the applications available. I have tried uninstalling some applications and have managed to remove some features that I infact needed to keep.just a minor thing like the Gnome interface (gee!). Is there a list available of core applications required to function etc. that would help me to streamline my build?

I'm not sure why but I've reboot the computer properly. Anyone know why is this happening?
One thing, please don't say "Do a real Ubuntu installation" as I need my brother's permission first before making a partition and install it, in case of anything happen.

RE-CHECKING DEPENDENCIES
------------------------
error: A required dependency 'cups-image (CUPS image - CUPS image development files)' is still missing.
error: Installation cannot continue without this dependency.
error: Please manually install this dependency and re-run this installer.
So I ran apt-get install cups-image and got the following:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble installing Ubuntu Netbook edition (v10.10) on my (brand new, No other OS installed) Asus Eee PC 1215T. I've successfully booted from the flash drive and can "Try Ubuntu," and everything works when doing so, however when I try to install it, the installer freezes on the second screen, right after language selection. To be a little more specific, that's the screen with the checkmarks next to "has at least 2.5 GB available drive space," "is plugged in to a power source," and "is connected to the Internet."
After I hit the "Forward" button on this screen, I just get an infinite wait cursor. I can still freely check and uncheck the boxes, and click the "Quit" button, so it's not entirely frozen, but it just won't progress any further.
I had this *exact* same problem just over a week ago when I tried to install Ubuntu on my desktop, also using the flash drive method. I ended up using the Windows installer to get it installed on my desktop, but as the netbook doesn't have any OS installed, that's not an option this time.
I was upgrading from lenny to squeeze. At the apt-get dist-upgrade step, at some point (after upgrading and configuring) it tried to create a new certificate for my mail server but creation of the certificate failed, dpkg reported an error and the whole process exited with error. So I rebooted the machine and issued again apt-get dist-upgrade but now the certificate was created successfully . After that it upgraded mysql-client and the process finished.
But I don't know if configuring of the upgraded packages has stopped at the point where dpkg stopped. I suppose so, because very few packages were configured at that point. Is the solution to run dpkg-reconfingure -a (or -u ?) or dpkg --confingure -a or something else ? (dpkg has the PACKAGE STATES)
dpkg --configure --pending gives me no package for configuration.PS: At least I hope that all packages were upgraded and a few were not configured. Is there a way to confirm that all packages were upgraded ?
Install d4x for fedora10,with rpm package,the tip is missing libssl.so.6.This file exist in openssl package.But the system has already installed newer libssl.so.7 in lib directory.For d4x is latest version,no version using libssl.so.7.(Perhaps it's this reason fedora 10 dose not provide d4x). Download a early version of openssl which include libssl.so.6,and release this file to lib directory.But the installation fail yet. If the lib is newer,the installation can not continue?(for can not degrade lib)
View 1 Replies View RelatedJust curious if there is any sort of issues with Ubuntu and JBOD assignments. I had my 2 500GB hdd's as JBOD through my mobo BIOS/RAID Config and it didn't like it. It installed just fine and showed the hard drives separately. I really didn't think anything of it so I continued on.After the install completed successfully, and I rebooted the system, it came to a blank screen with a blinking cursor and wouldn't continue on. So I tried restarting a few times, no luck. Finally I was like "okay screw this, going to install with no RAID setup or JBOD setup." (had RAID issues last night. rabble rabble) Removed RAID configurations and BAM started right up..S. Semi-new to Linux/Ubuntu. Know the basics and what not, just not some of the more advanced stuff.Edit: Okay, so I restarted my computer and removed my USB drive (which I had installed Ubuntu from) and it didn't boot. So it was NOT an issue with JBOD. Guess I'll look for a resolution for that, though.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed Debian 5.0.8 alongside Windows XP 64bit, and the installation went fine. However, when I choose to boot into Windows, the menu still shows the option to continue with the Debian installation. Debian was installed by burning the iso in Windows and then launching the CD rather than booting into the CD. My searches turned up with results to actually continue with the installation process, which like I said, went just fine. I want to boot right into Windows from Grub (if Windows is selected) instead of having the installation menu pop up again.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a sony vaio vgn-AR71s with dual boot Vista and Ubuntu, no problems there.Since, over time, I messed up my previous Ubuntu setup while trying to get my wifi working, I decided to reinstall the whole thing and give it a fresh start. (as after two Kernel updates my wifi card drivers should be supported)I Reinstalled Vista and drivers after which I downloaded the latest Ubuntu 9.10 LiveCD, burned to a disc and rebooted.When the Ubuntu installation was almost finished I got an error, the disc I was using got overheated (bad quality CD) and there was a problem copying certain files. However my hard disk was successfully partitioned and divided in half (1st partition Vista -NTFS and second Ubuntu -Ext4). But my laptop still boots directly into Vista ignoring the partly failed Ubuntu install, no boot option at startup.When I reboot using the LiveCD I can only install Ubuntu on a newly created third partition.
Is there any way I can continue or repair the previous ubuntu install? I searched this forum and the internet for options and hints yet don't seem to find an answer.The good thing is my wifi card is finally working (when I booted from the LiveCD it immediately detected wireless networks yeay)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI made the MOST basic of errors. I had ubuntu 9 installed on a partition of my netbook HD that was primarily running w7. I was running out of disk space and decided to remove the ubuntu partition as a short term measure - however I didn't change any of my GRUB settings so now I can boot into anything...
In only get a GRUB RESCUE> prompt on trying to boot. From searching the internet I've come to the conclusion that my MBR is F%^ked and need to restore it. I've downloaded ubuntu 10 and can run it from a mem stick, but I cannot get the ms-sys package to install - I keep getting the following error.
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install ms-sys

E: Couldn't find package ms-sys

Is there another way of removing GRUB completely? Or is there something else that I can try to successfully install ms-sys?
Completely new to Linux. I have two PC (both with Windows XP SP3) and an HP printer that are networked together with Ethernet cables and a 2Wire gateway. I now would like to install Debian GNU/Linux 5.0.6 on one of the computers and make it a dual-boot machine. The other PC will remain with Windows XP only. During the installation of Debian (5.0.6, 64-bit), I am asked to supply the domain name of the network.
It tells me that I can make up a name but to make sure to use the same domain name on all the computers. I have set up what Windows calls a Workgroup so that the two PCs can have access to each other's files. Would the name that I had assigned to the workgroup in Windows be what Debian is asking me about? The end result is that I want to be able to access Windows files and folders using Debian and vice-versa.
I'm new to linux and that forum, so a (possibly) silly question: I installed couchdb 1.0.1 w/ ymp (one-click) from http://software.opensuse.org/search?...3A11.2&lang=de and when I try to start it like /etc/init.d/couchdb start or sudo -i -u couchdb couchdb I am asked for a pwd, which I never put in. tried several standards or my own already. Didn't find anything in any documentation. Am I doing something wrong here?

I am trying a test net installation in VirtualBox, so far so good.
However, I would rather have a more complete installation on hand and I'm looking at the full install cd's --there are 6 of them.

Are all 6 required for a minimal install, or could I get by with one (or two, etc)? For example, with debian installation cds you can use just the first one -- the rest are just a complete set of packages for everything +kitchen sink.
While doing some basic tweaks, nautilus, panel, display etc I got a pop-up: Additional Firmware Required "to make hardware in this computer function correctly". No more detail than that. Like signing a blank check so I said "go for it". When I rebooted the display was hosed. Like the refresh rate was wrong. So off to xorg.conf to fix it. There is no xorg.conf. After four hours of searching forums and google I gave up and reinstalled (only an hour). This time I made a backup (cp -a) before letting F12 fix the non-existent problem. Tried again very carefully to be sure that what killed the display was the additional firmware. True. That kills my display. Only problem is the backup cp -a when copied back in would boot but would not let me log in!? I could boot "single" change the password, but it said that was already the password.
for me F12 is a "one-day-distro". I have multiple partitions with Ubuntu, Mandriva, SuSE, Slitaz ... My first Linux was Fedora Core 4 and I will try the next Fedora release. For now back to Ubuntu 9.04. I'm still testing 9.10. My graphics is on-board Intel. I think it's 965G chipset. This is a Dell E520N. How would I tell what not to do that firmware addition?
I am trying to install openoffice and I get. Note this installation will be done without root privileges. Therefore you will have reduced functionality. Change privileges to root privileges if you want full functionality. I have opened a terminal and su to root with no avail.
