View 1 Replies View RelatedOK I do have a file called firefox-3.6.3-tar.bz2 which I downloaded from the mozilla web site. This file sits now in "Downloads". /home/usr/downloads now I want to rename the old firefox 2.0 version just in case I am going to mess up something. I believe the "old" version sits in /usr/lib - so I just can rename this with mv firefox to firefox.old right? if I have done that how can I unpack and install the firefox-3.6.3-tar.bz2 file?
View 1 Replies View Relatedmy old firefox is obsolete. I've downloaded 3.6, successfully as far as I can see, but it's just sitting there on the hard drive as a file, it doesn't start up, I just get the same old version 2 which came with the machine and it's dead in the water really.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been using my Acer Aspire One Netbook, with Linux Lite v1.0.13.E as loaded on purchase, happily for a year or so. Yesterday, when I clicked on the Browser picture to open up Firefox, nothing happened. I can't find how to access anything which will let me check if the icon has lost a link. I have looked on the File Manager and can see the .mozilla folder but don't know what to look for, nor what to do from here.
I have now managed to add the sub-menu which was linked to here: [URL] as a way to Install apps. I can now use this directory to try and open Firefox Web Browser - I then get the message "Failed to execute default web browser Input/output error.
I'm trying to use iTunes and poker sites on my acer aspire one with linux linpus lite. I've followed previous threads and learned how to add/remove programs and I've downloaded wine. My wine programs show up under 'other' and I have: wine configuration; wine file; wine boot; wine software ininstaller and winhelp (not sure if the last is wine or not) Just can't navigate my way through any of these to find how to actually RUN wine. Also, if you think this is not the best way to fully use poker websites (I'm not happy with the iphone style no download play) or iTunes.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just downloaded Firefox 3.6.13 onto an acer aspire one which has limpus lite. On completion it told me to upgrade my flash player. Went to Adobe and I clicked on the drop down menu and selected .tar.gz (I have no idea what this means at all but it was the same ending as the stuff for firefox). So I've now got the flash player 10 thing in my 'downloads' but I don't know what to do next through the 'run programme window'.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI had to reinstall everything on my ACER aspire one, and now I can't unrar rar files with xarchiver. I tried installing ARK but that didn't work, and instead of troubleshooting why Ark isn't working I'd really just like to get Xarchiver to work. I uninstalled and reinstalled using yum but that didn't change anything.I also tried installing the source code of xarchiver 5.0 from a tar.gz, but the ./configure needs to be able to find gtk+-2 and for some reason it can't.

I know the command unzip is available, but I want to know if this copying from WIndows to Linux could lead to file corruption.
I'm running both Apache on my site and Etherpad Lite, both on different domains. However, running them both on port 80 causes a conflict. I tried to use a reverse proxy in Apache (this is the configuration -- I'm not sure if I did it right), but it doesn't seem to do anything.

I have a problem with certain web sites, mainly BBC when the page just disappears and it just reverts to my desktop.I tried installing more up to date version of Firefox but it keeps on happening- mainly it seems when BBC site has fancy graphics.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThere are few hundred tar.gz files each having several sub dirs in them (ex: ftp_server1_logs, mail_server2_logs). However the main tar.gz files (ex: 20101001.tar.gz) does not contain all sub dirs every time (ex: 20101001.tar.gz may only contain some ftp server log dirs etc..)
what i have to do is find the tar.gz files that contain a specific type of log type (ex: ftp logs) and extract all logs to a single folder (ex: ftp logs)
Will unzipping always append files if the directories already exist? What about tar?
I unzipped an archive the archive had 3 folders and dozens of subfolders within those. app, skin, js
The folder I unzipped it to also already had those 3 folders as well as many child folders etc.
My website is still working so I'm just wondering. Is this safe or is there anything I should worry about. The other option was to manually upload each file manually that is in those 3 folders and the dozens of sub folders.
difference between using "jar xvf" and "unzip" to unzip the zip-file?

Just for openers, I don't understand how you "open" (?) "load" (?).EXE files or make them happen.I have been using Windows all my life & to remember you just CLICK on a .exe file and it just 'happens'
Specifically, I am in Turkey and had to purchase a dongle from a Turkish phone company to access the Internet. When I insert the dongle, it shows the relevant .EXE file but when I click on it, nothing happens. No-one here knows LINUX.
I just one to talk to someone who has the same ACER as me and who can guide me through with GREATED simplicity (really idiot instructions would be fine).
I bought a used Acer Aspire one with Linux on it and it works great. I want to restore it to factory settings but I do not have a restore disk. (not to mention that the unit doesn't have a CD drive anyways.)
I have read on other sites that Alt-F10 works but I think that is only for WIN because I can not get that to work. Is there an equivalent function with Linux.
I wanted to assign ownership of my choice to my zip file while unzipping so I am using the command:
unzip yourfile.zip|awk -F": " '{print $2}' | xargs chown user.group
I also want to give 705 permissions to all directories and 777 to all files on unzipping?
i wanna transfer files from my windows pc to linux server.
suppose i have a file structure like this:
img /
logo.gif
css /
style.css
index.php
i tar.gz the directory, then upload, and then tar-xvzf the uploaded file. but the result is 3 file in root like this:
imglogo.gif
cssstyle.css
index.php
when i use zip instead of tar.gz it breaks the structure. i.e. it unzip some directories as empty files. fr examples it makes an empty file named img.
what's the reliable solution to transfer files between windows and linux?
trying to unzip only 1 directory in my .zip file, the reason is that i don't have enough space to unzip all the contents of .zip file. and i am trying to do it with unzip command.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a problem where I have certain foo.tgz files that are to big to gunzip in a directory, the box that it is on has limited space in /var/tmp for all intents and purposes. I did the standard gunzip -l to see how big the file was.
How can I look in the .tgz to see what files are there and pull out only the ones that I need. tar -t foo.tgz doesn't seem to work or am I doing something wrong?
Once I do find the file how do I only extract the one file from the .tgz, remember I can't uncompress the entire foo.tgz
I have recently installed ubuntu but the fan on my laptop isnt working,
the file to update the bios is an exe, so I installed wine, but when i used it, it gave me a erroe message about not being able to run a driver and so the exe doesnt run.
I have searched for the forums for how to run exe files but the responses seem a little confusing and very varied! probably because it is such a frustratingly frequent question that gets raised
also my laptop cant be on for very long without it shutting down from the heat so I am against the clock !
I have successfully created a dual boot system on my Aspire One net book computer with Windows XP and Ubuntu for net books. When I use the software installer the program icon shows up but when I click on the icon nothing happens. All of the software that was installed when I installed Ubuntu works fine.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I have a script that simply unzips a file with a line:
unzip /path/to/file.zip
which unzips and puts the unzipped directory in the same directory as my script. The issue is, I want the unzipped directory to be in the same directory as the original zipped file.
I googled and found the -d flag which would let me specify what directory to put it in but the script asks the user to define the directory so I don't see how I could use that (because the user specifies the path all the way to the zipped file, not just the directory where the zipped file is)
Used ubuntu a little, few days ago tried booting with puppy linux on usb drive.
I was amazed by its speed, since everything runs in ram, its not comparable with w7. That is the key feature im looking for.
I know, that the most common recommendation here, is to "try out different *nix based OS-es and find the one that suits".
I hope i can rely on other people experience, who have comparable system and silmilar hopes.
What i expect?
-working infrared
-speedstep
-hibernation?!
-support for canon camera
-ACPI (crucial, since t41 has "fan always on" issue)
-quick boot
-constant saving (puppy saves data to memory, which is a problem is power-cut happens)
Im sure puppy can fill out most of these requirements, but still im looking word from you guys.
Ive heard a lot good about algo zenwalk, vector, MijnPup, igelle...
Oh, maybe even tinycore will work...
There are simply so many of them, but i would like to sort out one which has periodical updates and has fulfilled my requirements. Also, Gnome interface would be nice.
I state that, i wont be needing bundled software, because i can get what i want later on and i don't want excess trouble uninstalling software.
have Acer Aspire One netbook with Linux Linpus Lite. I have downloaded Java in order to be able to play Yahoo games, to no avail, each time I try I get the reply "Java is not enabled in your browser" and I cannot get it to work. Is it possible that Yahoo games only work in Windows?
