View 4 Repliesjust did a dual boot or whatever you call it last night)and I can't figure out how to connect to my home wireless internet. I checked in one of the menus, and it says "firmware missing". Does anybody have an idea of what I need to do to fix this? If I haven't been specific enough, please ask for more information. I'm not really sure what to include.

I have inserted my handy drive. However, when I right click and select unmount I get the following message:
An application is preventing the volume "New Volume" from being unmounted
So I try from the command line:
umount /dev/sdb1
And I get the following message:
umount: /media/New Volume: device is busy.
All I have done is copied some files to my handy drive. So I am not sure what process is keeping my handy drive busy.Is there any command that I can use to see what process of anything else is using the handy drive?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm in the process of installing the usual Python/Numpy/Scipy/Matplotlib combination. I'm using the installed version of Python (2.7) on Ubuntu 11.04 but I've compiled Numpy and Scipy (and ATLAS/LAPACK etc.) from source. I now want to install matplotlib from the repositories but every time I do python-numpy is installed as a dependency of python-matplotlib. I've tried "apt-get hold python-numpy" etc. and also locking the version of each package in synaptic but both synaptic and apt-get will happily install the packages when requested, I assume because hold/lock version don't work on packages that aren't yet installed.
How can I prevent these packages being installed? Or is there a way to tell Ubuntu that I already have versions?
I like less and use it as my default pager in Linux. However, there are times that I am scrolling down through a large document quickly and less exits when I reach the end of the document before I have time to stop scrolling. I'd like less to exit only I type q, and not because I ask it to scroll beyond the end of the document. Is that possible?

The problem is that Kopete doesn't want to display the video if these files are present.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am currently using the windows version of gVim to edit source files on a networked drive mapped to a linux system, as well as local files created in cygwin.
The problem is that the windows version of gVim destroys the original file permissions on the respective systems. IE: Files on cygwin are defaulted to 077. When edited by the windows version of vim they are saved as 777.This problem doesn't even occur when using ms-notepad (as well as all other editors I've tried), so I am not quite sure why gVim does it.
A possible solution would be to use cygwin's gVim for everything, but that's rather cumbersome as it requires running an x11 environment to support it, and it causes some problems when running some commands from within gVim (or vim for that matter) when working on the networked drive.
Any ideas how I might be able to maintain the existing file permissions?
This morning while on a different machine the problem with cygwin did not occur. Cygwin & gVim were the same version, however the other machine is running WinXP while the machine the problem is occurring on runs Win7.

I need to get the libstdc++.so.5 library ( on a computer with Fedora 8 and don't wonder why it's so ancient,-there is a good reason for it) but I don't have Internet access from that computer, so I can't get to the online repo's.
However, I do still have the installation disk, and I'm typing this from a computer (SuSE 10) that is half a meter from the Fedora box.
I tried the "ADD/REMOVE Software" option on the menu, but it keeps on looking for the online repo and then if it doesn't get it, it fails.
Is it possible to get this library from the installation disk. How? Could I download the single package from the online repo onto the SuSE machine and then move it to the Fedora machine? How do I then tell the Fedora machine to "incorporate" it.

I have a Pentium 4 HP laptop with Linux only OS, Xubuntu 10.04 LTS
I hadn't powered this one up in a long time and when I did, of course, the Update Manager informed me there were a LOT of updates (around 400 files) and of course I said OK.
It never quite completes, giving me an error message. Apparently two different packages are trying to over write each other's data.
The two packages that fail to update are
kdelib5-data and gnome-settings-daemon
and I really don't know what to do about it.
although isn't kde one desktop environment and gnome another? And Xfce yet a third?
