General :: Get Xforwarding Working In Ubuntu?
Apr 15, 2010
I'm trying to get Xforwarding working in Ubuntu... On the server I have uncommented the following lines of /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
X11Forwarding yes
AllowTcpForwarding yes
Now I try to ssh in, but I get the following error messages (and Xforwarding isn't working).
$ssh -Y example.com
/usr/bin/xauth: /home/dan/.Xauthority not writable, changes will be ignored
$ssh -X example.com
/usr/bin/xauth: error in locking authority file /home/dan/.Xauthority

I can't get any features of compiz desktop effects working on a fresh install of Karmic Koala. I've uninstalled and reinstalled with sudo apt-get remove compiz and uninstalled advanced desktop settings through the software center. I am completely up to date.

Ive set a password for root after rebooting tried to su in console and authentication error. however sudo works fine but if your like me using sudo all the time starts getting annoying and at times i find myself apt-getting alot of packages so su is best for me my other 9.10 works fine which i installed from a canoical cd i went through my normal routine of changing my default user permissions.
e.g(add default to everygroup, and set a root password) so after the first time it wouldn't work i remembered that on my other 9.10 i changed the groups that root was in so i did the same thing i did with my default user. well it still doesn't work but i read somewhere that its possible to change it in the console.

I'm new at working with Linux based systems.Currently I'm working with a Dell notebook that I installed Ubuntu10.10 on and am having real trouble grasping the method needed to install software and media codecs on it off line.I'm sure it can't be as diffucult as I'm making it and I'm going back to the Ubuntu support center to seek help there.I Love the fact of Linux being open and available for everyone and really want to learn it inside and out.I'm good with MS and like how the system takes over installations of apps,dosen't Linux work in a simular fashion?Or do I need to use a command line interface to acomplish installing the software that I need to build the system I want.I feel really stupid asking,I know I'm missing something obvious that's right in front of me,I'm also going to look into a DOS tutorial.

So I am using Komodo edit, and it thinks that my current directory is /home/username1/ Yet my files are in /home/username1/workspaces/ruby/project1
Why won't Komodo recognize that my working directy is that of the current file? Same with situation when I use Komodo Edit to launch a command ("ruby [complete path+file name]"), ruby can't find its require dependencies unless I give a complete path because it too seems to think it is working out of /home/username1/

I have recently upgraded from karmic to lucid (plain ubuntu using gnome).
Everything worked fine, but the characters now aren't anti-aliased any more
This is what I tried to fix the situation, unluckily without succeeding:
Used the regular option pane from System->Preference->Appearance->Font (smoothing, hinting...) Edited the .fonts.conf file Disinstalling (and then re-installing) the mstcorefont package Changing the default Sans font to a font of my liking (e.g. Tahoma) from the abovementioned Appearance options
My ubuntu installation is quite standard, with the typical add-ons one might wish for usability. I used the ubuntu start script to make a few tweaks.

I've recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 and found the following problem: power management doesn't appear to be working. If I'm away from my computer for only a few moments, the screen is on dim when I return and I have to log on again. I've set the following states in Power Management: NEVER SWITCH OFF SCREEN and haven't ticked the DIM WHEN IDLE BOX. Can anyone help with this problem - it's infuriating. Meanwhile, I've gone back to Ubuntu 9.10 ...

I've been using linux for about a year but I'm not a programmer or anything. I recently got a Toshiba Satellite L550 that has a Realtek 802.11b/g wireless LAN. I am using ubuntu 8.10 and everything I've read on this forum and others states that this version of ubuntu can use this device. However, it seems that my system doesn't even know the device is there. When I run "sudo lshw -C network", I get this:
[sudo] password for house:
*-network
description: Ethernet interface
product: RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller
vendor: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
[Code]....
None of the descriptions show a wireless device? I'm not sure what this means or what the next step is. My wired connection works fine.

I'm trying to get a touch screen working with Ubuntu 10.04LTS (32bit) //changed to 32 bit -it is a serial touchsceen, connected at /dev/ttyS0 ,i know that works because I get garbage in the terminal when I enable it. -before the screen used a 3m driver (I believe) in XP.
My knowledge of Linux is passive so I generally pick up something when I need it. To get this working I came accross a lot of tutorials (a lot outdated a bit), I'm still at a loss to get this work.
I'm not sure where to put linux drivers (/usr/ or /dev/?) most tutorials kind of skip over that part. I have tried editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf unsuccessfully. I'm not sure what the syntax for that is supposed to be.

I'm trying to get ubuntu working w/ 3 monitors. I have been given 2 video cards
lspci | grep VGA
20:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV620 LE [Radeon HD 3450]
25:05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV44A [GeForce 6200] (rev a1)
I have had it working w/ two monitors plugged into the ATI correctly. and the nVidia monitor blank. Now I have the nVidia monitor working and one monitor from the ATI working, but I can't seem to get the last monitor to show anything. It does show the boot screen and works up until the point you are presented w/ the login screen for ubuntu, then it disappears and the nVidia monitor turns on. Might I have something wrong w/ my xorg.conf or do I need to do something more to get this to work? Currently I'm seeing this error in my Xorg.0.log file, but I'm not sure where to go from here:
[ 24.746] (EE) RADEON(2): reusing fd for second head
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
# nvidia-xconfig: version 270.29 (buildmeister@swio-display-x86-rhel47-02.nvid

I have ALSA on Ubuntu 11.04 version.
When I play aplay through my normal user, I am able to get the output.
When I do this with the root user, the command hangs: below stuff happens
root@myuser:~# aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
(hangs)
Also if I export the $HOME to /home/myuser/ then it works. So whats wrong for running the aplay command with a root.

Last night I jumped into the linux world and finally installed Ubuntu in a dual boot system with XP on board as well (eventually I want to get rid of this). How can I get my wireless Belkin F5D8233-4 router working. I put the install disk in and it shows on the desktop but unable to execute - keep getting an error message. Getting frustrated...
