View 4 RepliesI'm using 'Adobe Flash plug-in 10.3.183.4ubuntu0.11.04.1', installed from the package repos on kubuntu, and since the last update, it has broken all flash functionality in both rekonq and firefox.I have tried removing and reinstalling the package multiple times, both with and without the browsers open. Can anyone suggest a way to restoring functionality?
View 7 Replies View Relatedi installed the adobe flash plugin (for linux) following adobe's instructions (download, decompress, and copy the correct ".so" to the plugins directory).
however, the plugin is not detected by either videos or firefox (checked using "aboutlugins"). something must be wrong with adobe's plugin version 10.x!
i want to try a firefox extension called "download videos videos as mp4 and flv," which rewrites the videos pages to include a download button which allows you to directly download the video in mp4. however, it requires vlc media player on linux.

I'm very new to Debian (and Linux in general), and am currently taking a Linux course at college... I'm trying to get Debian running on my MacBook Pro (late 2009 model) and it's been complicated but I've got the operating system installed on it... I'm just having a few problems, the biggest right now of which is my wireless card, which doesn't work. So, I found instructions on the Debian Wiki for getting the driver for it, but it's not compiled already and I have little knowledge of manually installing stuff through Linux...

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have this old kUbuntu box here, which used to be 8.04. For some reason after a bunch of upgrades and other unrelated changes sound doesn't work any more.
Sound works on this machine when rebooting to Windows, so it's not hardware problem. It used to work on Linux on this machine before, so it's not weird hardware. (lspci says 00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2)) This problem persists across resets. alsamixer etc. claims sound is not muted, and volume is high. it's the same no matter which program I try to play some sounds (or which -ao for mplayer, default seems to be pulse) nothing obvious shows up in system settings
Do I really need to reinstall the system to fix that, or is there something simple I'm missing?

I have ubuntu server 8.x which works Ok but the other day I changed the owner of some files "the directory /etc" from root me. Now a lot commands do not work like reboot and such. So I tried to put ownership back to root and I can't. I say I dont have proper privilege. Sudo also doesn't work. I conect to the server using ssh with putty. What could I do to fix the problem? Update to the new version? This server has been working really well for a few years. The reason I changed the owner of the directory to myself is so I could edit some config files from my windows machine using a FTP client like WinSCP.

yesterday I was trying to install Puppy Lucid 5.2 on a old PC (PII 533mhz 265mb RAM). First of all I have launched the live cd, then set up language, time zone and keyboard... at this point pc stopped working and stay blocked on the desktop screen with no possibility to move pointer or use keyboard. Is it possible that hardware is too old to work with Puppy Lucid 5.2? May I have to try with a lighter OS (which one?)?

If I do the following, if the URL is a redirect, it doesn't work
rpm -ivh http://path/to/rpm
I have to use wget http://path/to/rpm which resolves the redirect and downloads the file, then run rpm on that file.
More for my knowledge of bash than anything else, would there be a way to redirect the file downloaded from wget into the rpm (something like redirection or pipes or something), so that they could be combined into one command and you wouldn't explicitly save the file first.
Something like... rpm -ivh << wget http://path/to/rpm
I have one more question, and that is whether there is a command in linux, such as wget, that would let me pass it a URL and output the redirected-to URL if the argument.
e.g. ('wget --someflag http://orig/url' would output 'http://url-after-redirects-followed')
I just installed Fedora 12 and after downloading and running the Java Sound Demo I get exceptions. If I run just a vanilla Java program that plays a .wav file it runs silently with no sound and no exceptions.
Every other app seems to play sound. I also took some advice from this thread in the Ubuntu forums which almost seemed to work. (Installing aoss got rid of the initial exceptions in the sound demo but I still hear nothing when I play.) I'm getting frustrated by the individual hoops I have to go through to eek sound out of my speakers when running Java apps on Linux platforms!
I tried using a command likecp `ls ~/temp/*.xyz | head -1` ./But that does not work. If I echo the value of command inside back ticks and put it manually in cp command it works.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI used unetbootin to make a bootable USB key (a BT4 persistant live cd)
But it wors only on a few machines. (only 1 out of 6 i tried) Most of the time boot sequence get stuck on a blinking prompt cursor.
Ex:
Attempting Boot From Floppy Drive (A:)
Attempting Boot From USB Device
_ <-- stuck...
Then boot on HDD
Is it do to the usb key or machines that do not load mbr the same way?
Edit: the stick is formated with MBR have 2 partitions. The first is FAT32 and active, second is ext3
PCs i have tested can boot on USB (at leat you can select a USB device for Boot)
I've got a Compaq MX 11800 keyboard that has a ball (used as a mouse). The ball works fine in Ubuntu and Windows, but does not work in Debian or Fedora.
I don't know where to start troubleshooting this issue. Any help is appreciated.
Here's a picture of the thing: [url]
you have an onboard soundcard that you have or may not have disabled in the BIOS, and you intend to use headphones with a USB sound card with headphone and microphone jacks (or no mic jack, it doesn't matter), but you notice that the headphones are detected. Alsamixer provides an interface to control the volume, etc etc, but still the headphones do not work..In my case, the module snd_hda_intel was being loaded for my onboard soundcard that I had disabled in the BIOS before booting the computer for the first time, and even though I tried to "activate" the USB headset in alsamixer, I still couldn't get the headset to work.
Solution as a trial: Open a terminal, and look to the code section for what you need to type.A big missing key to my puzzle is how to simply restart and/or reload a module so that it isn't necessary to unplug and plug back in the USB device. Can't I just re-discover the USB devices? (or other such hardware, such as a PCI card, or otherwise inaccessible component?)
I'm getting some trouble with Wake on Lan. The main question is: when I shutdown a PC through Windows, the WOL works well, but it doesn't happen when I shutdwon the same PC through Linux. It happens in all of my PCs here in the company.
