Software :: Use Apt-get' To Install Plugins / Programs Getting Error With Pcmcia
Feb 21, 2010
I am very new to Linux and I have been dealling with my problem for the past 9 days. I have installed Debian to my hard drive from a DSL disk. It seems like it is an old distripution (kernal is Linux 2.4.26 on i686). I saw that there was an old version of Firefox that desparately needs to be upgradeed. I tried to install the latest version with out any luck. It was the same situation when I tried to the install Flash Player plugin. I then tried to upgrade the distribution by doing the following:
[code]...
This scared me a bit so I searched the internet for a solution where I found people had the same problem I have, but the solutions given, which worked for them, did not work for me. I also tried using the dpkg and aptitude methods of installation.
i need to install nagios-plugins 64 bit, when i tried to install via yum i got this error yum install nagios-plugins.x86_64 yum error Unsatisfied dependency i hv installed openssl 32 bit but it needs openssl 64 bit, even php and perl. i tried to to install via yum yum install openssl.x84_64 but its not getting installed i tried to uninstall openssl but its shows so many packages to remove
I've recently got this error coming up when I try to install things via yum through the terminal. It happens when I try to install *anything* at all. I'm running 32bit Fedora 14, although my laptop is 64 bit.
I think the error may have occurred a while back when trying to upgrade to fedora 15 running 64 bit, although I'm not sure exactly what I did then

I have tried running "rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest" and I just get this error again.
I am installing Ubuntu Server 10.10 on and old Dell Laptop. The network connection is an Xircom PCMCIA card.During install, the computer sees and interacts via the network just fine. For example, I can ping the gateway. Also, the command "lspcmcia" works and show the Xircom card.When I reboot, however, there is no network access, and the "lspcmcia" command is not there. When I try "lspcmcia" the OS helpfully tells me that I can "apt-get" pcmciautils, but, without network access, that fails.I tried adding the install cdrom to apt using "apt-cdrom" and then tried to "apt-get" pcmciautils and it got further, installing some dependencies, but acted like it still was unable to locate the pcmciautils package.

I was trying to get a card to work well with linux. I searched compatibility lists and found the NetGear WG511T to appear good. I got one and when I insert the device, Linux never sees it. In Windows, it appears like normal and drivers install. In OpenSUSE 11.3, the device is never recognized; no lights turn on, not listed under iwconfig, or networkmanager. I've installed the madwifi drivers, but they dont help since the computer never sees the device itself (to install drivers). Is there anything special I need to do to get the device recognized by the system?
I can't get either of these installed on an old Dell Inspiron 8500. I'm really an absolute beginner with this...I've installed the newest Ubuntu on this machine and am trying to get it to connect to the internet, but am clueless. Sorry if this should be posted in absolute beginner. Don't want to double-post.
I run plop bootmanager - [url] to load live linux distros from the usb drive on the PCMCIA card. This is because grub2 doesn't yet support the pcmcia drivers and I wanted to make use of my old laptop.
I run the instruction on how one should install ubuntu on a usb stick from [url].
The process goes through when I see the live CD screen where it lets me try Ubuntu without installing. The splash screen comes up and all and remains there for sometime but after that it stops and then I get this error:
Its trying to search for my cdrom drive when it shouldn't as I have it on usb drive!
Recently I bought a Toshiba NB100 from a family friend. All was going well until I installed some updates and now when I try to unmute my speakers I get this error message pop up.....
"No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found"
I am running fedora 13 and am having problems installing Java and Adobe Flash player to work on firefox. Whenever I try Java, it says plugin not avalible, and whenever I try Adobe, it says that it failed. Im sorry if this was posted before, I did look for it.
I want to install more plugins for gedit, but when I run: Code: sudo apt-get install gedit-plugins I get: Code: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 213 not upgraded. I keep reading about all of these awesome plugins I have to have and I want to use them. I tried to just download them and add the plugin to the plugin folder, but I got a permission denied error.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 x64. And some Wine games (e.g. Morrowind) require 32 bit gstreamer plugins to enable sound. How can I install 32 gstreamer plugins on my 64 bit Ubuntu?
On Fedora this is easy, you just need to explicitly provide the architecture:
My ubuntu does not want to install apps such as google chrome or etc, everytime i go to a ..... website it ask for a plugin and i click the box and it says no plug in, now im on firefox with no plugins. I cant install adobe flash Everytime i try to upgrade to 10.04 it get stucks on these 2 items and just say error
I posted this as a comment and got no responses so I thought I'd add a new thread. Ubuntu (11.04 loving it so far new Ubuntu user)won't let me copy my plugin folder to /usr/lib/rhythmbox/plugins. I get an error window that says "Error while moving 'albumartsearch'.
There was an error moving the file into /usr/lib/rhythbox/plugins." and then there's a 'Show more details' tab that says "Error moving file: Permission denied". Pleaseeee help I'd really like to add album art to my music library as well as some other plugins for Rhythmbox!
Follow the directions on line : "put the files in either the system-wide plugins directory /usr/lib/gedit-2/plugins/, or in the user plugins directory, which may need to be created, ~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins/" eg, I copied the file for codecomment(from the gedit-plugins package) to both(either) of the two directories above, but none of them works. I also tried other plugins and chmod the file & directories to 755, still can't load new plugins after restart gedit. [URL]...
whenever i opened some site that require some flash player plugin to play some video etc.It shows download plug-in when i click on it , firefox can't find respective plugin and there is option for manual install.
In that case i have downloaded flash plug-in from adobe website and install it with package installer.But again showing same problem...means download plug-in .
I am very happy with fedora 15 and wanted work with new and exciting software in fedora15. How to work with eclipse in fedora15 i.e. how to install plugins to eclipse and other IDEs.
Recently installed Ubuntu 10.04. Is there a definitive list somewhere of all the repositories and codecs I need to install to bring this distro up to speed with WinXP or Win7?
i'm having trouble installing the jre in firefox3.6. I'm using slackware 12.1 which comes with the default firefox 2. Downloaded 3.6 into my systems this is where i install:
Code:
root@linux:/usr/lib/firefox3.6
I download the jre 6 from the java website and this is where i install:
Code:
chongming@linux:/usr/local/jre1.6.0_21
I create a symbolic link into the firefox3.6 plugin folder using this command:
Restart the firefox and type aboutlugins, the java plugin does not exists. I went to the java website and test to see if jre is install in firefox, but could not detect. This is the permission for the firefox 3.6 dir in the /usr/lib path:
I want to install "gst-plugin-base" but i get this error: "this version of gst-plugin-base needs glib 2.20 but installed version of glib is 2.18". I installed glib 2.20 and now I'm trying to install gst-plugin-base but i get that error again.
I installed Cairo Dock for ubuntu 9.10 and I downloaded the plugins and extracted them to a folder. How do you install the plugins? I downloaded cairo-dock-plugins-2.1.3-2.tar.gz. When the download finished, I opened the folder and it requested I extract them, which I did. But I don't know how to use them.
I had just downloaded and installed Ubuntu. I had to manually install the Software Center. So I did that and installed a bunch of things including OpenJDK and its browser plugins. OpenJDK caused trouble in a game I play, so I installed Sun instead. However, that's the old version. I followed the above instructions, removed the old verisons and attempted to install the plugins. But unless I use the Software Center, it doesn't work. I'm cutting and pasting exactly and nothing shows up in my aboutlugin screen.
