I'm new to Ubuntu as of yesterday, and know very little of Linux in general. I tried RedHat for a while about 10 years ago and remember almost nothing from the experience. I'm up and running with everything working great with one exception -- my wireless. The error: Contents of jockey.log as suggested: -Sorry, it's long. Not sure what (if anything) is relevant.
I have written a script that must be run as root, but at one point in the script there is some library configuration which should not be run as root. So my question, is there a command that runs another command as not root when root? (If that makes any sense..)
I'm trying to install the latest debug flashplayer available here:
[URL]
linked from this page
[URL]
I follow the embedded instructions and this is the error:
root@vostro-ubuntu:~# /home/berrie/work/download/install_flash_player_10_linux/flashplayer-installer [: 258: closing paren expected ERROR: Your glibc library is older than 2.3.
[code]....
I'm running Ubuntu Karmic Koala and it is up to date.
Could it be that the flash installer parses the version number wrong as previously it was glibc-2.9-1, a '9' after the dot, now there is a '1'.
I tried to compile one software. After I typed "./configure", there is an error:error: GSL CBLAS library not foundI installed GSL 1.9 library --- When I was installing, it was like this:
make install Making install in gsl make[1]: Entering directory `myDir/gsl-1.9/gsl'
I am new to linux and trying to install one software and it is constantly throwing me an error eventhough I downloaded and latest version of boost and tryed to add it to its path: The error is: "We could not detect the boost library(version1.38 or higher). If you have a stages boost library(still not installed) please specify $boost_root in your envireonment and do not give a PATH to --with-bost option. IF you are sure you have boost installed, then check 7youe version number looking in<boost/version.hpp>"
./configure script fails to configure libsf. Please check the following last few lines of configure script error.
But find command shows the following;
It seems the file libdb does exist. man dbopen displays man page for dbopen. I also tried to ln -s /usr/lib/libdb.a and libdb.so /lib dir but all were in vain.
I have a .swf file that I was going to play, but when I try to open it, totem (which apparently is my .swf program) says "GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error." Now since I know a little bit about linux, I opened up a terminal and redirected the stderr and stdout to a file called "error". Then I read the file and it said:
** Message: Error: GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error. gstffmpegdemux.c(1243): gst_ffmpegdemux_open (): /GstPlayBin2lay/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin0/GstDecodeBin2:decodebin20/ffdemux_swf:ffdemux_swf0: Input/output error
So then I interpreted that as meaning that there was a library called "gstffmpegdemux.c" that needed replacing. So I tried using synaptic to replace. Then Synaptic wouldn't let me get the package, Though I could see it existed (I would put up a screenshot, but for some reason it won't let me upload) then I tried aptitude, which claims it doesn't exist, and then apt-get which also claims that it doesn't exist.
configure: error: readline library not found If you have readline already installed, see config.log for details on the failure. It is possible the compiler isn't looking in the proper directory. Use --without-readline to disable readline support. Now I tried to yum install readline-devel and the result was failure as below:
So I am thinking that maybe I have to tell configure where my readline libraries are. From the above, it looks like readline-6.0 is not on my computer, even though I went through the configure/build/install process for it.
This is the error I receive when I try to install a library. I really do not know If I could do something to skip this error message.As you might see below. I receive the following error message Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...):unable to load shared library '/home/apa/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library2.11/RandomFields/libs/RandomFields.so': /usr/lib64/R/lib/libRlapack.so: undefined symbol: _gfortran_concat_string
I am trying desperatly to install boxee onto my pc Boxee - Watch Movies, TV Shows and clips from the Internet on your TV.without success.I have downloaded the source code from the site and have ran
./bootstrap ./configure
The ./configure last few lines = checking for boost/shared_ptr.hpp... yes checking for main in -lGL... no configure: error: Could not find a required library. Please see the README for your platform.
I'm not sure what this lGL is referring to. The readme states that I need the below to run the configure, though that doesn't say lGL either?
Just installed OpenSUSE 11.3 64-bit. I have a program that uses libjpeg, so I installed libjpeg and the dev modules. It has both version 6 and 8 installed. When I run my prog and try to access the lib I get this error: Wrong JPEG library version: library is 80, caller expects 62 This seems a common problem elsewhere. Anyone know how to fix it in 11.3 ?
I am trying to run i386 in gcc_test-suite using dejagnu runtest and it fails with error given below. I can see that gcc-dg.exp is in folder gcc-4.6-20100911/gcc/testsuite/lib, but runtest is not searching in this folder.
how to resolve this issue and run only i386 tests.
$ cd /gcc-4.6-20100911/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target $ runtest -a -tool i386 -verbose .... .... Looking for library file /usr/local/share/dejagnu/lib/gcc-dg.exp
I'm using Fedora9. I cannot start wireshark or tcpdump because of the lib dependency error:
Code: [root@localhost ~]# wireshark wireshark: error while loading shared libraries: libpcap.so.0.9: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I updated libpcap before and the latest version is libpcap.so.1.1. I changed the version because of another application but I cannot remember when I did it, perhaps on Sep.11?
I am not all that experienced with Linux configure scripts for building source. I downloaded a vmime library source package. One of the dependencies it has is on another open source lib - gsasl. I had no trouble building the gsasl lib.
But I cannot figure out how to let the vmime configure script know that I have built the gsasl package. Here is the end of the output of the vmime configure script:
checking for char... yes checking size of char... 1 checking for short... yes checking size of short... 2 checking for int... yes checking size of int... 4
I am installed cUrl from http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/amd64/curl/download for my ubuntu 9.0 with php 5.2 ,Apache 2.0.It was installed by gkebi package installer. but when i display phpinfo() curl not found since i was attempt to use phptwitter class. what is the proble i have? When i am trying to install again package installer shows same version of curl already found, but phptwitterclass shows following error 'Method "curlQuery" of class "Twitter" reported an error: CURL library not installed.'
I have downloaded CDemu from http://sourceforge.net/projects/cdemu/ and installed it without errors. However when I go to /usr/local/bin and run ./cdemud it returns the following error,
Quote:
ben@Scottie /usr/local/bin $ ./cdemud ./cdemud: error while loading shared libraries: libmirage.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I find this confusing as I have installed libmirage - http://sourceforge.net/projects/cdem...r.bz2/download - and I have found libmirage.so.2 in /usr/local/lib.

I'm running Slack 13.1 64 bit. I'd like to try running multi for 32 bit support so I can run a 32 bit version of firefox using the 32 bit flash plugin. Here's what I did: - followed Alien Bob's Wiki and download and installed all the *txz files. - installed a bunch of required libraries following the instructions on the Wiki - installed the 32 bit 10.1 version of the flash player plugin in $HOME/.mozilla/plugins/ - started the 32 bit 3.6.3 version of firefox; it seems to work fine. - go to about plugins and verify that Shockwave Flash (libflashplayer.so) is version 10.1 r53 and it is enabled. - run "ldd libflashplayer.so" and verified that all libraries are found. - run "ldd /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.3/firefox-bin" and verified all libraries are found. - go to [URL]... and click on "test your adobe flash player installation" I will get this error: Adobe Flash Player error: could not load cURL library - I verified (repeatedly) that I do have what I think is the correct package. How can I fix (or start debugging) this error?
I'm reading about shared, static, and dynamic libraries. What is SDL? Is it static, shared, or dynamic?
I always thought a library would be a lot of .h and .cpp files compiled separately into .o files and then if you compiled your own program you could use the -l parameter to link the library and it was all compiled together. Now I'm not so sure.
I don't even see any SDL .cpp files in my system anywhere. All I have are lots of SDL .h files in /usr/include/SDL and I don't really understand the code in them.
I'm making a wild guess here: SDL is a shared library. SDL itself is NOT compiled into my program, therefore SDL must be on any system my program tries to run on. When I compile and link SDL all it needs is the header files to know what SDL function and objects it can use. And then on every system it uses an already compiled SDL shared library thingy somewhere.
So... where is that part of SDL? All I can find are header files.
I'm thinking the advantage of shared libraries is that someone could say update SDL on their own system and take advantage of the new features without having to download new executables with the new version of SDL compiled into them for every program that uses SDL.
So if I'm making an editor and a game engine and they both use a lot of the same .cpp and .h files that I wrote and I'm tired of updating one and then the other and I need to turn them into a library, then a shared library might be kind of a silly solution. I could just make a static library. Right? Because it's not SDL. Nobody else is ever going to use this library.
I'm tring to run AMDOverdriveCtrl, since they don't have an RPM file for Fedora i tried to compile from source i followed the instruction in the readme files run the make command
and tried to run the application, and i get this error message
Code:

I am using Centos 5. I got one error unexpectedly after some configuration for rsync and folder settings. The error i am getting is "Serve Authorization directory (daemon/ServAuthDir) is set to /var/gdm but does not exist. Please correct the configuration and restart GDM." after rebooting.
I tried to resolve the issue by setting permission for folder /var/gdm to 755. but the problem is still not resolved.
I have a problem with the configuration of the NS zone. Looked through the logs, and there:
