I installed ubuntu on my laptop as virtualbox application. I have tried to install build-essential like that command:
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
If i do, i got the following message:
Code:
Media change: insert the disc labeled 'Ubuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ - Release i386 (20090420.1)' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter.If i insert the disc with the ubuntu-image and press enter, i see this message every time i press enter.I looked in my Places folder, i saw my disc with the Label "Ubuntu 9.04 i386".
I have a problem when I was installing the build-essential package.
I have a machine which is an embedded system with only 512M Flash and 128M RAM, the CPU is Atom N455. These hard wares have been designed in a very compact style and assembled in a very tiny case without CD/DVD ROM driver and internet access(it has a 100M Ethernet port, but due to security rules, it can not be connected to internet).
Here is the question: I have already installed the minimum system on it with the "network install" ISO image. It took me about 280M out of the 512M Flash.now I want to install the build-essential package on this machine. There are a lot of limitations:
1, I can not use the CD/DVD ROM
2, I can not use the Internet access
3, there are only about 200M storage space left for me, so I can not copy the whole "debian-6.0.2.1-i386-CD-1.iso" image file into it (this image is about 640M).
4, I also do not have any external CD/DVD Driver, Mobile HDD Driver, USB Ethernet etc. (I am in a remote area in Western China, I connect my laptop to internet via 56k Modem, there is no computer market, the express courier is also not available in this place.)
What I have now at my hand is a 512M USB disk, my laptop and the phone line.
I have searched a lot of solutions on internet, but none of them seems feasible for me. I have tried to install a similar system by using the "network install" ISO on VMware virtual machine. I have done the "apt-get install build-essential" on the VMware Machine and get all the .deb packages in /var/cached/apt/archives, they are as following:
Volume in drive Z has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 8C85-5ECD

i need build-essential on a netbook that can't connect to the Internet (fail.. .) ). But i can't just type in apt-get build-essential because...you get the point. So, do I have a chance to find build-essential on some website, in .rpm form or something like that?

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6-i386: Breaks: ia32-libs (< 20090804) but 2.2ubuntu11 is to be installed
Breaks: lib32asound2 (< 1.0.20-3) but 1.0.15-3ubuntu4 is to be installed
E: Broken packages
I thought apt would automatically install the package dependencies. I don't really want to update the entire installation as I have a lot of network services installed and running which I don't want to risk breaking. They aren't exposed to the internet and don't pose a security risk. So is there any way to get apt to install the dependencies for build-essential?
I'm having headaches about not being able to install build-essential on my 9.10. I don't have an internet connection and no CDrom. [URL]. So that solves it if you have a CD drive... What to do if a poor fella (like me) was to have a system with no CD drive? I installed from USB PENDRIVE and I suppose there have to be some command corresponding to apt-cdrom but for the USB drive but I can't find one.

I have been trying to install build-essential package on Ubuntu-11.x in the production environment, which is not connected through Internet. When I run apt-get install command, it gives me errors such as:
Depends: libc6-dev but it is not installable
Depends: gcc but it is not installable and so on
I have checked these packages through "dpkg get-selections" command and i believe that they are already installed (probably virtual packages) in the system. Please let me know the quick way to complete this installation.
Been using since summer 2009 the xserver no backfill from PPA: [URL] and it was working fine with my ATI video card. No heavy CPU usage when restoring from minimized and a general performance boost were the results of that use.But recently made an upgrade and realized that xserver-xorg-core package (check it from synaptic manager) has been upgraded to a jaunty-proposed version and the problems started to appear again!So using Synaptic I selected this package and hit CTRL-E key in order to choose the nobackfill version. This way things got back to normal!

Trying to install SW 13.1 (on DVD) on the following system: M/B Intel: DX38BT Processor Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700 - 2.66GHz, 8MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB, Socket 775 Memory Corsair Dual Channel 8192MB PC10600 DDR3 1333MHz Memory (4x2048MB) Graphics Diamond Radeon HD 3850 Video Card - Viper, 512MB GDDR3, PCI Express 2.0 P/S Ultra 1000W
My goal is to install the i386 build on one partition and the 64-bit build on another. I have been away from Linux for a while and am sick to death of Win7, want to come home. :-}
Booted on i386 side of DVD, system freezes after a couple of lines that start with ATA2. Does not respond to 3 finger salute, ctrl-c, nothing. Have to press reset. I have tried both huge.s and hugesmp.s kernels
Booted on 64-bit side, comes up fine. I performed the install, selected for automatic lilo install. Lilo install hung but I was able to reboot. I booted off the 64-bit side again, entered the following: huge.s root=/dev/sde3 rdinit= ro It booted fully to the login prompt but the keyboard does not work, no input.
I just wonder how to best partition a harddrive with essential folders.
My current installation has a layout like this.
The rest is in '/' integrated.
Does it make sense to give more folders a own partition? And if so, how much should you apply to each folder?
There are 2 users on the computer and there is nothing special or big installed.
I have currently 2 more harddrives which host music/picture & movie data's.
The reason for my question is just that i want to save my data in case of one folder failing.
My computer that I am trying to use Linux on is a Gateway G6-400 with a 10 GB hard drive and the original floppy and DVD drive. I want to use additional parts that are useable from an old Gateway Essential which consists of: the hard drive, some RAM, and another 10 GB hard drive. I want to use a OS that looks like a Mac (I am thinking about either Ubuntu or Xubutu). It doesn't have a 4 pin MB connector. Does this mean I can't change the power supply on the machine, or is the computer able to use the PSU without the 4 pin connector? How much wattage would I need?!!! And what Graphics card should I upgrade to for this computer? I want to do basic tasks and play these three games: Wizard101, FreeRealms, and Fusion Fall. All of the internet I want to connect over a network wirelessly.

Since yestarday, wireless net stop working with my laptop hp compaq 6720S, dual boot vista/karmic.
In jaunty i had the gnome network manager fully working.
When i upgraded to karmic (last october), gnome network manager connected and disconnected the wireless all the time, doing internet unusable.
I fixed the problem installing wicd. I had wireless fully working.
But since yesterday, wicd cannot obtain ip address from wireless and when it can, connects and disconnects net all the time (behaving like gnome network manager). I have reported the problem in this network and wireless forum but yet i cannot obtain answer.
Well, my question is, as gnome network manager from jaunty worked, could i install this gnome network manager release in karmic to fix wireless?.
I used to dual boot Windows XP and Ubuntu for quite some time now. Yesterday after seeing OpenSUSE installed on my friends lappy, I decided it IS the time to bid goodbye to Windows. I don't play games, just internet browsing, listening to music, some letter writing and movies of course!
So today I removed Windows XP by formatting C: drive and installed OpenSUSE.
I am happy with OpenSUSE, but I still want to dual boot OpenSUSE with Ubuntu. But in the GRUB,only OpenSUSE entry is shown, Ubuntu is nowhere. It seems OpenSUSE has overwritten the Ubuntu GRUB during install and doesn't include Ubuntu in the boot list as Ubuntu does for other OS when we install Ubuntu.
How to create an entry in the GRUB so that I am able to boot into Ubuntu also.
I had installed Lucid on a clean install on my laptop - three partitions - ext4 home, ext4 lucid and swap.I've been using it for around a week, and find it a bit buggy in places, so I thought I would install jaunty (which proved very reliable in the past). I used the usual installer, and made my /home partition smaller, and created a new ext3 partition for jaunty, assigning the smaller partition to /home.The install proceded without any problems, but on rebooting I just get this:GRUB Loading stage1.5GRUB loading, please wait...Error 18I was hoping that Jaunty would not install grub, but I didn't see any option to prevent this during the installation. I suspect Grub 1.5 has been installed and now it's all messed up

I just upgraded from jaunty to intrepid. The upgrade tool went through everything without a hitch and when it finished it told me to restart my computer. When I did, ubuntu began to boot, got past the initial loading splash screen, but immediately after, before the login splash, the screen freezes with some strange graphics glitch and refuses to work from there. How can I fix this to any workable state, upgraded or not?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am a newbie to Jaunty, so please forgive my descrip. terminology. I am experiencing a great amount of grief with my Jaunty install. I can no longer get a login screen in Jaunty. When I try to boot normally for this install I get an unclean shutdown screen & it goes into the "checking drive" mode. I uninstalled some applications such as has to do with touchpad, remote desktop, xorg-driver-fglrx etc. I reinstalled xorg-driver-fglrx, which I later found out that I do not need. I have an AMD64 HP system with ATI graphics onboard.
I need to find out how to load graphic user interface in Jaunty. Some of the necessary files have been completely removed by me & I need to reload the repositories and update my current install.The partition is encrypted but I have been able to login with the username & password for THIS encrypted install using the "repair broken system" part of the GRUB screen.
How do I go into the terminal and load repositories, and maybe the kernel so I can do an update/upgrade? I do not know if upgrade is part of what I need to do I wanna keep my Jaunty install so I can access 50G of data that is on this install. I have made no backup of this data!!!
I am able to login to my install using my username & password after I get to the "#" prompt, (option "fix broken system" in GRUB) so I know login can be done under username of install. I just need to know what to TYPE into the terminal to restore the necessary files in the right place to make it run. (Is it called terminal at that point?)
what are some essential programs/packages that you would suggest?
