I have a usb bluetooth dongle I've connected to my machine. The device appears just fine and using hcitool scan I can scan for device with no trouble. However blueman doesn't seem to register the device even when I force the applet to display and try add a new device it won't scan/see any of the bluetooth devices. Has anyone come across something similar or would know how I should proceed?
View 2 RepliesI have my home server set up as an ftp server, LAMP server, ssh server, all that fun stuff. I usually access it externally using my IP address, but I would like to get a domain name for convenience reasons. I wonder If you could recommend a site that will register a domain name for your IP, preferably for free. Or would I be able to do it myself by installing a DNS server on my server? I'm not really sure how that works. I'm pretty sure that you can only do that with local servers, right?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe motherboard is an L7VMM2 Rev 1.1Initially everything was running smoothly, then I brought it upstairs and everything just failed. The computer would hang right before the POST memory check, and after a few reboots it would do the memory check and reboot. So, I opened it up and switched the RAM around thinking it may have been a BIOS bug or a loos connection and it seemed to work. Now it boots into 10.04 perfectly and is blazing fast for an old computer. THe only problem now is that according to ubuntu, my ethernet controller is non-existent. It doesn't show up in lspci, dmesg and the only thing in ifconfig is the lo interface. It will however recognize the USB interfaces. I upgraded to linux 2.6.2.32-22-generic #33 but that didn't help the issue any. Now I'm stuck, and running out of ideas
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Fedora 13 desktop I have at work that I want to use to back up data off my laptop, also running Fedora 13. I can ping the hostname of the laptop from the desktop, but not the other way round. I don't think I did anything to have the laptop register its hostname with the DNS server. Since my company uses DHCP, I can't just edit the hosts file on the laptop. I want to be able to use the hostname when I mount the NFS shares for the backup. I also want to run the desktop headless so Remote Desktop needs to be able to find it. Is there a way to force the registration? If I ping the laptop's fully qualified hostname from itself, I get back the correct IP address. If I do the same thing on the desktop, it tells me it can't find its own hostname. I do have the domain name configured in the dns search path under System->Administration-Network
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if it's possible to operate a Web Server 'without' registering a domain name, using an IP address alone.I currently have Apache & Tomcat running on one of my workstations. I am currently using these servers as development sandboxes; and I have P2P Search Engine 'YaCy' running under Apache, which is accessible from the outside to the entire P2P network.
Since my Apache server is accessible from the outside, I was thinking that I might setup one of my other workstations as a server with just my 'external' IP address & port number as a way of reaching my site, i.e. http:// 255.183.47.201:8090/. I can't see any reason why this wouldn't be possible. I seem to remember several of my former companies doing this on their corporate Intranets. Also, I wouldn't be locked into registering a domain name every year; and I wouldn't have to worry about any content restrictions. If my intended audience knows where to find me; I can't see any reason why this wouldn't work. And, I don't see why my site couldn't be indexed by search-engines. The only caveat I can think of is making sure I have enough bandwidth from my ISP to support the anticipated traffic.If this will work, I assume I can setup a regular website, an online store, podcast, or provide any other type of tradional web-service this way.
I just installed Debian 6.01a and when I click with my RAT5 mouse the clicks aren't being registered. This happens about maybe 40% of the time. There is nothing wrong with my machine physically and this is a clean install that is not virtualized. I've had similar issues with Kubunutu though blamed it on the virtual machine...now I know it's a Linux specific issue.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am running rooming accommodation for 5 students and am trying to use TCaR addon with IPCOP to split my 400GB Iinet internet quota 5 ways. As a total beginner to LINUX I am using the threads here to help me through the install/setup process. After following the steps in another thread http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-linux-752598/ I have IPCOP 1.4.20 installed and running (Advproxy,PUTTY, SSH enabled ect)and the TCaR addon operating fine on the GREEN. Everyones connection is working, however when I tried to send out usage reports after an hour of use it registers all persons usage as 0mb.
I am using a Billion BiPAC 5200 modem set to full bridge and a 5 port switch running without any modification. I had set the IP addresses in TCaR(not using MAC addresses)of the students and set their profiles to give 81920MB of usage per month. Usage is set to 1 cent per MB although I will not be charging for usage. Am I not waiting long enough for usage to register? Should I be changing settings on my 5 port switch? I noticed that the addon section of IPCOP is over 900 days old, is TCaR no longer compatible/supported? I can supply any further data with regards to my IPCOP and TCaR settings
it was working but after i installed updates and rebooted it could not get a ip address seems like strange timing it still registers under ifconfig it is not even working on the live usb anyway i can test to be sure it is the chip?

The blueman applet is killing my processor from time to time. The crazy part is that I do not have blue tooth installed in this system. It appears to be a bug upstream and looks like it has been reported but in the mean time is there a way to disable blueman?

I'm running slackware current. Blueman works perfectly, except for DUN. I can connect to DUN service, but I don't know to open the connection. I've tried to find help on the blueman website, and I've I've found this page [URL].
Where says to install plugins to use DUN. Before I screw up my blueman configuration .. those plugin are already included in the blueman package? I can't find where to download them. If they are already included, what I've to do to use DUN?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm a recent convert from Linux Mint to Debian for use with an HTPC media center.
I've been using Kodi + Playstation BD Remote for some time successfully with Mint.
I'm having issues getting the remote to work under Debian.
Typically I've been able to pair with Blueman and connect to the Input Service, however, under Debian, There are no "Input Serivce" options in the menus of Blueman..?
I don't know if this is because I'm missing some package that enables this or because my remote is not recognized as an input device. I suspect it is the former, because a bluetooth keyboard I have doesn't expose the "Input Service" menu option either.
I recently Installed debian 8.2 on my toshiba satellite l505-es5034. Using cinnamon desktop.
Did googling regarding how to get my insignia usb bluetooth dongle functioning and ended up installing blueman.
It can search for devices but when i try to connect to my logitech bluetooth adapter for my stereo it reads "Connection Failed: No such file or directory"
saw on arch linux wiki that this may happen if the user isnt in the lp group so I added the user to the group and still the same result.
I tried connecting to my phone with same result. No issue pairing, connection failed.

About a week ago I installed some updates. What they were I don't remember. After I did that my mouse started acting up. Now about half the time when I single click it registers as a double click. Also when I click and drag to select text anywhere it'll randomly do another click screwing up that process.
So far I think the problem is when I press the left mouse button it registers the left click and then when I release, it randomly registers another left click.
The mouse itself works fine if I take it to another PC that's using windows.
OS: Ubuntu 9.10 64bit
Mouse: Microsoft Intellimouse 3.0
I have the Faenza Icon Theme installed, but it seems blueman-applet could care less. The applet's icon does change to use the Bluetooth application icon, but when it is active or disabled, it uses the icons in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/24/status/.
Part of the problem may be that Faenza has the status icon named bluetooth-active/bluetooth-disabled instead of blueman-active/blueman disabled. However, even if I rename these in /usr/share/icons/Faenza/24/status/, nothing changes. If I copy the icons into the first location mentioned and rename them, it does work. I don't have a problem doing this, but if I ever change themes, I'll have to do it again. Anyway I can make it use the icon theme?
For anyone using Blueman with Testing (Squeeze), todays Python upgrade to version 2.6 stops it from working due to a Blueman bug. This has been fixed in blueman version 1.21-4, which you can install from SID if you don't want to wait the 10 days for the normal migration.
