Ubuntu / Apple :: Accessing Documents From Old Mac?
May 3, 2010So I just realized that I am not allowed to access my documents folder which I backed up but I get an error saying I do not have permission or something along those lines. I remember a while back that there was something I could do along the lines of changing my ubuntu user and group and that would make the mac folder think that I am the owner of it. How do i do this and will this work?

Ubuntu / Apple :: Gettting Apple Keyboard Function Keys To Work
May 7, 2011Neither Ubuntu's Unity or KDE respond to the function keys on a regular Apple USB keyboard. I can plug in a non-Apple keyboard and they work just fine. What needs to be changed or configure so that F1 and company on the Apple keyboard work as on other keyboards?

Apr 22, 2010This morning I bought an Apple wireless keyboard and I got it connected through Blueman. It works like a charm, but I have on problem;
When I log out I can log back in by typing in my password. However, when I restart the computer it seems that bluetooth is not loaded yet and I cannot enter my password. So I have to log in using my wired keyboard, and then disconnect & re-connect to my wireless keyboard using blueman before I am able to use the wireless keyboard.
Is there any way that I can already auto-load bluetooth and connect to my keyboard before I log in?

Feb 1, 2010I had a thread about installing on a Mac and decided to go the VirtualBox route and everything is running splendidly EXCEPT for the fnmode setting in /sys/module/hid_apple.
The problem is that the directory hid_apple does not exist for me to modify the settings for the apple keyboard. I'm assuming that when installing in VB, Ubu assumed it was a PC. Anyone know of a way to get the keyboard config directories in there so I don't have to hit Fn to do Alt-F2? Also, I tried to create the directory (sudo mkdir) and it returned "Cannot create directory...no such file or directory", but not in so many words.
Ubuntu / Apple :: Installing OS Apple Powerbook G4 Ubuntu?
Mar 14, 2011I've had a Apple Powerbook G4 for a while now, but being mostly a Windows user I've never used it. I remember when it ran it's native OSX (Which I can't for the life remember) Probably Tiger? Anyways... I tried installing Ubuntu on it about a year and a half ago, the installation was botched and I left it sitting there with no purpose in life. :O
So I've decided to dust the laptop and give it another go. I've progressed a little further with my Linux experience, having installed and tested a few distros and even switching over to Ubuntu 9.10 for about 4 months. Enough of my life story and more to the point.Has anyone installed Ubuntu, or any distro for that matter on the Apple Powerbook G4? I know there are different versions of the G4 and I'm not entirely sure what my version is, It's the 1.6Ghz version with The Nvidia card (Err I think) and extra Wireless card installed. I am not very capable with Mac - After checking Apples website I believe it's the 15inch.
I've read the FAQ thread and will begin trying to install Ubuntu tonight at home, I just wanted some suggestion and some pointers in the right direction. What distro would be most suitable for my hardware? and What is easiest to set up?

Ubuntu :: 9.10 -- Accessing The GRUB Menu?
Jan 18, 2010It took me 3 shots at installing 9.10 (some people are just a little slow) in dual mode with Vista, but I finally got it right. As a by-product of stumbling around like that I now have multiple entries in the GRUB menu and would like to remove the ones I no longer need. How do I do that? I assume each menu entry represents a chunk of code that is, likewise, no longer needed. I would like to free up that space. How can I make sure I'm deleting the correct version?I also wonder how I can copy/paste the menu here to make it easier for all to see.Finally, I assume the latest entry in the menu is shown first. Is there any way to get at time and date when entries are made

May 13, 2010I dual boot Ubuntu 10.4 and Windows 7 (actually, just installed the Win7 a few hours ago.
I like that I can access the Windows 7 partition from Ubuntu, but not the other way around. I found links for several file explorers, but is there any way to install an extension for the standard Windows Explorer that can open EXT3 partitions (and the files therein) as if they were NTFS?
Most of the links I found refer to custom file explorers. I only want to use one file explorer, not switch between two different ones depending on which partition I want to open. Also, if I use a custom file explorer, how will dialogs like "Save as..." be able to handle saving directly to EXT3?
Ubuntu :: Accessing The Files From Imac (OS X10.6.3)?

Where is the fun in it? My old PC has a built in TV tuner card, so eventually I want to use that as PVR and play them on using ps3mediaserver.

May 22, 2010I have a folder shared over NFS that contains three sub folders:
(Machine A)
/usr/nfsshare/a
/usr/nfsshare/b
/usr/nfsshare/c
I can see these three folders just fine on machine B via nfs.
sudo mount machineA:/usr/nfsshare /mnt/ShareMountOnB
Now I want to mount a second drive in machine A, and mount it as a fourth shared folder:
mkdir /usr/nfsshare/d
sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /usr/nfsshare/d
I can see and access all four folders on machine A just fine. I can see all four folders on machine B in /mnt/ShareMountOnB, but when I descend into folder d, it is empty! Bizarrely I can create files in this empty folder d on machine B, but I have no idea where they are being held. They are certainly not in machine A. What I have to do to access the real contents of folder d. I have already changed all permissions and owners to be identical to the other folders.Sharing it over samba to a Windows PC works fine.

Ubuntu Servers :: Accessing Websever WAN IP From In The Same LAN?
Jul 21, 2010So i run a ubuntu 8.10 server setup for webhosting. I have my router portforwarding to my servers LAN IP, and i have DNS setup and pointing to my WAN IP.
My host entries are all setup on ubuntu also.
The problem : I can access my server from typing WAN IP address or any of the URLS with webpages hosted on the server, all seems to be working. BUT, i can only access these from OUTSIDE my network. If i try access them within my LAN, i get sent to my routers login page.
I really cant find anything that could be causing this..
Ubuntu :: Accessing Server From Any Computer?
Aug 1, 2010I would like to have a server set up at home and be able to access it using a front end that I would boot from a USB drive. The reason I would do this is because at my university all of the computers are horribly slow, I have a server at home that is fast, I would sit down at one of the computers use a USB drive to boot up the computer and use it as a front end, the computer at home would be the backend. Is this doable? if so how?

Ubuntu :: Accessing BIOS To Set Up Boot From USB
Oct 16, 2010I understand this is not directly an ubuntu issue, but this arose as I was trying to install ubuntu, so I'm hoping some kind souls on here would be good enough to help anyway.
I've in the past installed ubuntu on to my PC using a CD, but this time I thought I'd try creating a USB startup disk.
I was required to set up the BIOS to change the boot order so I can boot from the USB flash drive.
The problems arose when I pushed the 'DEL' key (the correct key for my motherboard) to access the BIOS setup. When doing this the computer completely froze and would not progress any further to boot. It would still boot normally from the HDD provided I didn't try to enter the BIOS.
Looking on the internet for a solution I tried using the motherboard jumper to reset the CMOS. Now I can't boot up the computer at all. I get a message saying 'CMOS checksum error - Defaults loaded' then it asks me to press F1 to continue. I try this, but nothing happens. Clearing the CMOS has made things worse as now I can't get the computer to boot at all.
Have I killed my motherboard somehow? I've tried using a different keyboard (one USB and the other a USB keyboard but with an adaptor to connect it to the P/S2 port).
On further investigation any key press from the keyboard is enough to freeze the computer at whatever point.
My motherboard is an WinFast NF4SK8AA with AMD Athlon processor and 4Gb of mem.
Ubuntu Servers :: Accessing Webserver From Outside LAN?
Oct 20, 2010I posted this question a while ago but haven't had any luck getting it answered so I reworded everything to make it more clear. I started an Ubuntu web server on an old work laptop. The purpose of this server is to host a small file-sharing site, a forum, and a wiki. I have no prior experience with command line Ubuntu but am trying to figure this all out.
So far Ive setup the LAMP server, so apache, mysql, and php are installed. Ive also installed phpBB3 and Mediawiki. Both phpBB3 and Mediawiki are able to open from inside my LAN. I also have SSH setup and am able to use putty to manage the server from inside my LAN. Mediawiki runs slow internally but this is a secondary concern.
Externally to the LAN I can access the webserver using SSH(but sometimes it is too slow for anything that opens up such as nano or the SQL password prompt to display and the connection drops). I can also browse to the site and see the default apache welcome message. But I cannot open the mediawiki or phpbb site. Both will sit indefinitely and not open. The access log on the server shows that the request is being passed through though.

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Accessing MP4 Player - USB Indicator Goes Away
Jul 31, 2011I have bought a Logik MP4 touch screen player. Upon inserting the USB cable in the MP4 player, the screen lights up, and the usb icon is displayed, then after a few seconds the usb indicator goes away and the charge icon is displayed. No where does ubuntu mount the file system.
While the USB icon is displayed, the output of "lsusb" is:
Code:
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 001 Device 007: ID 1e74:4631 Coby Electronics Corporation
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
After the charging indicator appears, lsusb hangs.. No output appears in the terminal. Disk Utility also doesn't show any removable drives attached to my computer. There is music on the player, I was forced to connect the player to a windows machine to copy music on it. It first detected is as a "Logik Device" and then AFTER those drivers were installed it detected it as "A Removable storage device".... I wonder if this is a modeswitch issue? Such as are being experienced by 3G modem users? How can this be fixed so I can transfer music to and from the player under ubuntu?
I have tried it on:
Ubuntu 10.04 32bit
Ubuntu studio 10.04 64bit
Ubuntu 11.04 64bit
All give the exact same outcome as above (including the hang on the second lsusb command). I left the lsusb command in the background and after about 13minutes it gave me an output of:
Code:
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Ubuntu :: Skipping The Authentication When Accessing And HDD?
Aug 7, 2011On a laptop I have Windows 7 installed, and ubuntu 11.04. Now. A while ago the HDD died and I replaced it. with some data loss but nothing much to worry. Now I thought that it would be useful if I somehow could manage to direct the Documents, Music etc. etc. folders located /home/[user] to somewhere on a different partition HDD. I managed to make new folders on the partition and link them with the documents and music folders etc.. the problem now is is that you have to unlock it every time by either opening the partition and insert your password. I know that the password problem can be evaded by simply changing some settings, but. I want to evade the whole process of clicking on the partition. It is for security reasons that that have to sort of activate the partition, but I find it becoming a bit annoying.
So, has anyone a clue of how to activate the driver right at the start? something automatic stuff. Or does someone know how to disable this ?
