I just want a simple email notifier. I have started to use Ubuntu 10.10 and seem to have downloaded Gmailwatcher - it shows in Applications/Internet/Gmailwatcher. But it doesn't show as installed software in the Installed Software Centre. So, I cant uninstall it. I can't configure it? If I try to open Gmailwatcher I receive a popup asking me to open it from an icon above - but there's no icon there, I just want a simple email notifier - preferably one which I can add an audio alert.

View 3 Replies View RelatedInstalling spice is my first attempt at compiling anything from source and it has been an incredible headache so far. After going round and round for 3 hours chasing missing dependencies I'm finally stuck at a place where I don't know how to proceed. According to the instructions I'm following: "In case of an older kernel (version < 2.6.30)Get kernel sources using the following git repository:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.30.y.git
cd <spice_root>/vdesktop/kernel
./configure
ln -s <linux-2.6.30 source dir> linux-2.6
make sync
make "
Unfortunately my CentOS box (the one I'm working on) doesn't have internet capability, so I have to download everything on my windows box and burn it to cd. So I downloaded the 2.6.30 source from kernel.org, copied it to my CentOS box and unpacked it. I got as far as "make sync" in those instructions before I hit the next snag. When I tried to "make" it gave me an error "/lib/modules/2.6.18-194.el5/build no such file or directory"When I look for the referenced "build" file, it says link broken and when I follow the link to "/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-194.el5-x86_64" which does in fact not exist.
So a quick google search reveals I need the source for my current kernel in addition to the 2.6.30 kernel source. The instructions here:
[URL] for the full kernel source look hugely complicated and involve rpms which is something I know nothing about. I tried to yum install kernel-devel hoping that would appease the unhappy make build, but I'm limited to installing things on the CentOS install DVD and yum tells me "error downloading packages" from the DVD repo, so I guess the source files are not the DVD? To top it all off, I only have 30 Mb of free space left on this drive anyhow, so I don't think there is room download the whole source anyway unless I put it on cd and mount it or link to it somehow in ways that make my tired brain hurt.

I am trying to compile an android project, which requires GCC-4.3(mandatory, GCC-4.4 doesn't work). So I downgraded the gcc-4.4 on my ubuntu 10.04 to gcc-4.3.
But then the compiling process doesn't work. It says:
cc: command not found
make: *** [...] error 127
It's weird that the shell can't find 'cc' while I do have gcc-4.3 installed.
I've tried type the following command:
export CC="/usr/bin/gcc-4.3"
but I don't know what's it for.

View 1 Replies View RelatedPackages installed with synaptic are usually well installed on your system (i.e. bin in /usr/bin/, etc.). However, when a software is not in the repo, I always wonder where I should install it, when everything comes together (i.e. /bin, /var, /man are all subfolders of the main folder of the software). For now, I've opted for /var/opt/ or /usr/share, but I'm not really sure this is a best practice... is there any guidelines on that?

View 4 Replies View RelatedIn the beginning there is MBR. MBR looks for the active partition and tranfers control to the VBR of the active partition. MBR is where grub may be installed. which allows the user to choose an OS(a VBR) I am not sure what the program in the VBR does,but it manages to loads the OS. What am I trying to do: Backup. I ma tired of losign my partitions my bootloaders. I want to backup them all! partitions/MBR /VBR everything short of creating an disk image.
My questions:
1. say the ubuntu partition is formatted, will grub still load? if not is there a bootloader that would?am I making sense? i hope so...
2. what exactly does the VBR contain ?
2. How do I go about backing up? The mbr and the partiton table are backed up with a simple dd command. Then what else needs to be backed ? VBR's of every partition?
I just installed CentOS 5.4 Final on a 64 bit system. After install, I found a lot of 32 bit packages are also installed. Is it necessary for a pure 64 bit system to run (let's say, I will never want to run any 32 bit app on this system), or is it something I could have avoided during install?
