View 3 RepliesI have Ubuntu 10.04 installed on a Virtual Machine. Would like to install drivers for Lexmark X6650. I download filelexmark-08z-series-driver-1.0-1.i386.deb.shWhen I double-click, there is an option to run in terminal. I run in terminal. Then it asks for administrator password. I enter administrator passwordIt says "Wrong Password"How can this be a wrong password.A) I created the passwordB) used this password for other administrative tasksThis must be a problem with Lexmark!Please tell me how to manually install the lexmark drivers from my terminal, i.e. once I navigate to the directory, what command should I type in?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI can get the command program to work, but not the desktop program to work. Windows Wireless Driver was working, but now every time I try to start it, it won't load, and will just be an empty window. This happened after I tried to installed a driver (which was the wrong one), and I restarted the computer. After this happened, I tried to reinstall the program, but to no avail.
The command program works, but I can't use the command lsusb, because it just pauses and doesn't do anything. Do I have to wait for it to kick in. I'm pretty sure that this is not it, because when I try the lspci, this works fine (but it's not the one I need). Please help, and don't make any stupid replies.
How do I install Drivers for logitech c100 webcam in kiwi 10.08?

I'm running Fedora 10 [KDE] on an Acer laptop and am having problems configuring "hot keys" for it. First thing that needs to be mentioned is that the hotkeys used to work when I was running it on Gnome without me having to do anything. I assumed that this will be the case with KDE too. In any case, I think driver installation is supposed to be quite straight forward. There are two packages: acer_acpi and acerhk and different installation instructions for each one of them. The problem I am having is when I run the makefile script for either one of these, I get the following output in the terminal:
Quote:
Makefile: line 5: KERNELSRC?=/lib/modules/2.6.27.9-159.fc10.x86_64/build: No such file or directory
Makefile: line 6: KERNELSRC: command not found
Makefile: line 6: KERNELSRC: command not found
Makefile: line 6: shell: command not found
Makefile: line 6: shell: command not found
Makefile: line 8: KERNELVERSION: command not found

I think build-essential and some other packages are normally needed, but since you can't get them for Fedora (?), I groupinstalled "Development Tools" and some other group.
I have been using ubuntu for quite a long time, and for the first time, I am now unable to set nvidia drivers to work. I have just install ubuntu 9.10 amd64 on an AMD 64 athlong X2 with a GEForce 6500 nvidia card.
The only reason I need the proprietary drivers is to use two monitors.
I am going crazy, I have tested everything I have found on the web. I have tried all the nvidia drivers version, I have tried envyng, ... but nvidia do not work!!
I am trying Xinerama with nv, but it does not work either!!!
Here is my xorg.conf file in which I have tried to use nv driver to set dual monitor. X fails to load and it says that screen 0 is deleted, that devices are found but there are no matches in the config file. Any clue?

I know i know, some will say "eww Proprietary Drivers" but hey, ubunt is all about having more control of the OS. Is there an easy way to install Proprietary Drivers thats not through the hardware drivers option on system?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed Xubuntu the other night (completely wiped machine) and started doing all the updates on it. After a couple of reboots, I changed from the proprietary drivers, to the regular nVidia drivers. After doing this, the startup logo is displayed at a really low resolution. Is there a simple fix to change this and use the nVidia drivers as well?

But my internet doesn't work yet obviously, so I need to download the drivers to my thumb drive on my desktop and install them on my non-networked laptop.My issue is that I don't know:a) Where to get the driversb) How to install them from a local drive
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just installed Karmic beta and I'm having issues with getting my wireless driver to work. When I was using 9.04 and when I booted 9.10 from a CD, I could just go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers and activate a wireless driver and everything would be just peachy. The problem is that, in the install of 9.10 beta, no drivers appear when I load the Hardware Drivers GUI, so I can't get wireless internet.
Is there anything I can do besides wait a few days for the full release of 9.10 and hope that solves the issue?

I've been trying to get online for the better part of a week now with no luck. I can't get my network up to download drivers for my hardware - without the drivers I have no GUI so I'm stuck trying to do this in text mode.

Code:
#! /bin/bash

This same error occurs if the gnome-terminal line is changed to
Code:

Is there any way to pass more than one command on to gnome-terminal? I have tried various single and double quoting senarios and in a final attempt, I abstracted to an exported function all to no avail. Perhaps even though gnome-term is better at many things than xterm, xterm trumps it in this instance.
I'm the noobiest noob you'll find on here. I'm having trouble getting ruby on rails to work with mysql on redhat. So on their forum I asked how to install the latest "sqlite" database package on linux.They told me to run.Now, I don't think I need "sudo" because I am the root user on my database, and I don't think I can use "apt-get" because I'm using redhat, not ubuntu.
1) Is there a way of running the above command on redhat? (A redhat command for installing things?)
2) How can I be sure I'm using redhat and not some other OS?

But I often get into a problem: if this script is executed in cron,it often does not completely download the movie.I often find the movies it downloaded are several KB while the movie is actually 20MB.So I think it is because it did not wait for finishing one task ,and jump to download another.So I want to know ,is there a way to force the bash script to wait until one movie downloaded completely and then start to download another movie ?

$cmd If this script is executed, an error is generated.
