Ubuntu / Apple :: Internet Is Not Redirecting Properly
Feb 22, 2011
I have an Intel iMac 8,1
I Triple boot it with OS X, Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.10
I use REFIT and everything was working find until yesterday :/
I was playing around with Ubuntu and I installed VirtualBox by Oracle just for the heck of it, after that my internet stopped working. Skype works fine, i can make calls and people appear as online or offline, every other web protocol does not work though. I have searched and other people have the problem, I changed my DNS servers, I flushed DNS etc. etc. I disabled IPv6 and changed my DNS to another one. I am stumped now.. The internet worked fine day before last, the only thing that I can think of that may have messed it up is Virtual Box, but I already deleted it. I really dont want to re-install because I have had bad experiences with uninstalling Ubuntu.
Also my sound does not work, currently I use an Altec Lansing system that is plugged into my Audio Jack behind my computer.

I have been trying to get access to my company server using opensuse. For that I need to have citrix access gateway working. My company has a webpage and within it a link for employee access. After putting my username and password it will start open an Citrix Access Gateway window but it won't load the applications I need. I just show in that area the message: "the page isn't redirecting properly". Note that it opens and works well in windows 7.
What I have done:
-downloaded the citrix plugin for linux RPM
-I downloaded and installed openmotif 32 bits (the citrix plugin is 32 bits)
-I changed gnashplayer to 32 bits (after unsuccesfully trying with the default 64 bits)
-I copied the certificates of my company webpage to to usr/lic/ICAclient/keystore/Cacerts with the native crt extension.I installed the citrix plugin after the previous steps.
I am not sure if I skipped something or I have to further configurate the citrix receiver. I tried doing so:going to View (in citrix receiver), click in Citrix XenApp view. I will ask me to put the url. I entered the url (the web address of my company server) but I got the message: "Citrix Xen App can not update the configuration information.

So I installed Lucid on my G4 Cube and now am trying to figure out how to make the video work properly.Right now it is in low graphics mode, which is not pleasing whatsoever.I have the 17" Studio Display (LCD, rev b) connected to it and it has the ATI Rage 128 Pro graphics card.I went into the xorg.conf file and there was nothing there. I tried the suggestions for the 15" display but that results in the x server crashing, so i undid that.

I have a 400mHz clear blue iMac here that I recieved from a friend. It was being used by an art center to display one letter as part of a sign. For some stupid reason, they put Debian on there for that. Whatever.I wanted to put some type of linux on it (not sure yet what kind) but since the Ubuntu Forums are awesome, I figured I'd use this resource instead of signing up for something new.
When I plug in the iMac and press the power button, it lights up with a green LED. Next, I hear the CRT screen power up. (with that nice satisfying crackle) followed by a loud, "Boop!" I do not see the screen light up, nor does it react to a keyboard, mouse, or monitor hooked up with the VGA on the back. It takes CDs in (which I found out) but does not give them back. (so rude.)

I have an Apple iBook (ancient I know) and whenever I boot from the Live CD (Kubuntu 10.10) it boots up in 800x600 (as far as I can tell that's what it is). This would be a problem however it simplely leaves a huge black column on the right side and has a partially duplicated desktop below it.
When I go to display settings it won't let me change to a higher resolution (1024x768 is what the iBook natively runs at).
This is an iBook G3.

My keboard was working perfectly (backlight, inverse FN) until upgrade from karmic to lucid. Now neither backlight neither inverting FN (in pommed.conf) works- backlight is always off, FN is default OSX-like.
Trackpad worked "almost superb" (missing click with one finger and drag with another!!) but after upgrade (=no mode udev) event number changes with every reboot so I cannot put configuration based on /dev/input/eventX to Xorg.conf. How can I make it have the same number after reboot now?

I was curious if anyone has dual booted Ubuntu on this model iMac, (Mid 2011 with 4gb ram, 2.5GHz Intel Core i5 processor, the current model in the apple store).
When I dual booted on my MacBook I came across a plethora of problems, such as the sound not working properly or the wireless card not being supported.
Does anyone know if these same problems exist for the iMac or is everything business as usual?

Anyway, I've a decent understanding of the various Linux console commands and know how to work my way around a text editor or file system. But I can't seem to fix what's wrong with my computer. I'll list my info here and then discuss the most pressing issues that I need help with.
It's a 17" PowerBook G4, with Airport Extreme (which I understand is a headache all on its own: I'll likely get to that later)
Results of ~$ lspci:
I downloaded the most recent .iso for the PowerPC from [url], specifically the 4.4 GB DVD copy.
During installation, I told it to install only the Desktop Environment and Base System. Installation went through without a hitch, though it failed to connect properly to my Wireless card.
The first issue I encounter after booting is during the login. When logging in as a non-root user, I'm told to change my password immediately (root enforced). I've done this every time I've logged in. Immediately after when I log in I'm told that the system clock is wrong: It's currently set to Jan. 1, 1970. If I try to change it, I get a message saying that I can't, and my desktop won't load properly. If I ignore the system clock issue and try to change it in System > Administration > Time and Date later, after entering my admin password I get a message that says
Failed to run time-admin as user root.
Failed to communicate with gksu-helper.
Received:
Changing password for root.
While expecting:
Apparently the password issue is related to the Time and Date settings (according to Google), but I can't fix those because it wants me to change my password.

I have linux firefox installed on my notebook, and after having a bit of a problem with it, I did a full factory reset back to all the original settings. Now when I connect to the internet, some of the pages now are not displayed properly. For instance, when visiting E-bay, the listings look fine, but my E-bay page is all listed down the page, (if that makes sense) and I cannot look at any of the photos. MSN is also, how can I put this, spread out across the page. I have done a live update to see if that makes a difference, but no joy.

I recently installed ubuntu studio 9.10 amd64 on my MBP 5,3 I need an internet connection for updates and to customise my system etc I tried to connect with a wired connection but for some reason I could not configure the ethernet interface. I tried to install the broadcom bcmwl-kernel-source driver by downloading it on another computer and then using a usb stick to transfer it. I had to go through installing several dependencies including dkms and linux-headers-generic. When I finally succeeded the driver showed up in Hardware privers as proprietry but was inactive. Whenever I try to active it I hit 'Activat' I authenticate and the nothing happens. It remains inactive. The wired connection is not readily available to me so it would be great if it was possible to solve this either via a usb or cd.

So I just installed ubuntu from a net install, and updated from the internet and posted on this site through firefox while installing vlc wich just froze at 90%.....
but when I try to add community repos it comes up with errors. And while running a system check it says I have no internet connection...
I'm connected through ethernet on a router wich works with the g5 in the other room running osx, and the pc upstairs running ubuntu meerkat. Now I had this same problem with SUSE 11.1 and worked around it by adding through terminal but I was never able to add from the GUI.

I currently have an old powermac 7220/200 with all ehe origanl stuff except for the hard drive which is now a slightly larger one. I was wondering if it was possible to set up a ubuntu installation on it using a 20g hard drive (I have got one of these going on a 486 running win98, just) and be able to run mac os as a dual boot system, possibly with 9.1 and the origanal mac os that come with it? Unfortunantly I cannot connect this computer to any internet even if I had a card that was compatible with mac os.

I finally ditched PulseAudio and set up my system with a realtime kernel. I'm redirecting ALSA over JACK. The good: - Awesome, I can get <5ms latency without any xruns! (although 23.2 msec as described below is just fine for me) The bad: - I'm a long-time linux audio user, but have got some minor issues which spoil the fun.
1. Without pulseaudio, the indicator applet refuses to show a volume control applet. The old gnome-volume-control-applet (the one with tooltip!) loads but doesn't show in the gnome-panel. Although I can set the volume with envy24control, it's not quite as practical as using the scrollwheel! Any way to fix this?
2. When I launching any application (such as a terminal) from the gnome-panel, a new JACK connection is created, but not cleaned up after closing the application. As a result, the QJackCtl connection list is flooded with alsa-jack.jackP.8528.xx connections (where 8528 is the process ID of gnome-panel). The jack_lsp command line program shows the same (added spaces after every : to get around the smiley filter):

Neither 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?

I got it set up in the NetworkManager applet (imported the client.ovpn), but when I connect it sends ALL my traffic through the VPN. I would prefer all accesses to the internet go over my normal default gateway, rather then all the way through to the VPN's default gateway.When I connect through the command line:
Code:
openvpn --config client.ovpn
I don't have this problem, and accesses to the internet still go over my default gateway on

Today I tried to use padevchooser on Natty to send my laptop audio to my home media machine (which has the good speakers) using the "default server" option. Turns out padevchooser doesn't work on Unity and the threads I have seen say it is deprecated for other gui tools,
So what is the easy gui way to switch from my local pulse server to another one on my LAN, without using padevchooser, or switching off Unity? Or is this a regression?

I've got a C program that I've added some 'printf' statements to monitor a couple of variables. When I run this program manually or from a script, the output is displayed on screen. However, I need to change various variables in the 'test.c' file, run 'make clean' and 'make' a few hundred thousand times. I'm using a script to read the variables in and then using sed to do in-place edits of the file. Unfortunately, with this amount of iteration, it is getting rather tired!
Anyway, I've created a script that is working as long I respond to prompts. I've tried the following to no avail: Code: /path/to/script > /tmp/output /path/to/script > /tmp/output 2>&1 /path/to/script | tee (no output even after adding the -a option) In my C program, I have the following 'printf' statement: Code: printf ("variable1: $s variable2: $s",var1,var2); What am I missing? I've worked with redirection before and it's always worked out fine, but this one plain stumps!

This 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?

Ever since I first installed OpenSuSE 11.2 on my pc firefox has been randomly redirecting me to weird web pages. It doesn't matter what website I try to visit whether it be this one or ..... or even my clan website, often times I will somehow randomly get redirected, sometimes before the page even fully loads. If I try to click the back button it just redirects me again and the only way I found to make it stop is to either X off the tab and then bring up a new one or go to another website and then go back to the one i wanted.
The majority of times it redirects me to what is likely either the worst advertisement for an antivirus program I have ever seen in my life, or the worst attempt at trying to convince people to download a virus I have ever seen in my life. In the tab it will come up with what is supposed to be the my computer folder and starts scanning various directories and detecting viruses (I wouldn't fall for this even If i was using windows). I don't know what happens after that I usually X it off.If anyone has any ideas about what could possibly causing this, or needs more information I would be grateful and happy to oblige.One last thing, firefox seems to be crashing ALL the time, not sure if this might be linked but it is really annoying.

So I have a DAC/Headphone Amplifier which plugs in through USB. Through the system settings I'm able to set it as the preferred audio output option. This makes all the windows manager sounds come through the headphones, but all the applications still come through the laptop speakers; i guess they are completely independent of the system settings. I have to set each application's output preferences separately, and some software (like Firefox) doesn't have any output preferences. So is there a way toirect the audio output of all applications to all come through the USB DAC
