ive been scratching my head at this one for days, i turned on the ubuntu virtual machine and checked what apt wanted to pull, and im suspecting that i need to find the source versions of several packages in regard to qt4 and libqt4 and various libqt4 extensions.
Although I use the system's default version of Firefox (v3.6), I wanted to give the Firefox4 beta a test drive, so I downloaded it from Mozilla and extracted it into my ~/bin directory. However it seems that Firefox4 is not able to pick-up the plugins installed for the system version. All the plugins currently installed for Firefox3.6 are in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/, with a couple of symlinks to other places, so I can't figure out why the beta is not able to find them. I thought /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ was a standard directory for Firefox plugins on Linux.
I also tried copying one plugin (Flash) file from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ to ~/.mozilla/plugins/ and to ~/bin/firefox/plugins/, but still Firefox4 is not finding it. Aboutlugins is blank, as is the plugins tab of the Add-on manager.I'm using the same profile for both Firefox3.6 and Firefox4. Is this fine, or should I create a separate profile for use with the beta version?
P.S. For what it's worth, my system is a 64-bit one, running 64-bit Ubuntu 10.10.

For compatibility reasons, a developer do not always need the newest software version that just poped up on the market.
In my case, right now, the WebDriver Test our Selenium Test framework doesn't work on Firefox5 that i automatically got thanks the Ubuntu Update manager. I had to search few hours on Internet and finally ask a more experimented college which told me about this solution:
first of all, uninstall firefox5:
Code:
sudo aptitude purge firefox
then, you can list the available software versions : sudo apt-cache policy <software_name>
Code:
msauvette@msauvette:~$ sudo apt-cache policy firefox
firefox:
Installed: (none)

I have some problem, the gparted 'searches' for ever on one disk only, even after 20-30 mins it is not finished and it has to be stopped manually.
Tried the same with debian, which has gparted 0.38, and the all works fine.
whenever Ubuntu boots, it searches for an external hard drive that I no longer have plugged in. It hangs on the Ubuntu load screen for a while, then says that it cannot find the drive and I have to press (S) to skip the attempt.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use Debian Stable with some newer upstream packages. I've got the upstream Firefox tarball unbacked in /home/firefox/. The problem is that it can't find any plugins, flash or anything else. It's the 64 bit binary but still needed some 32 bit libraries to run. Does it need 32 bit plugins?
Iceweasel is uninstalled and and I deleted it's ./mozilla/ directory. I tried creating a /home/.mozilla/plugins/ directory and symlinking plugins into that and pretty much any other conceivable path where it could be looking for them.
I run upstream firefox from /home/ in the past and had no problems.

I am looking for the quickest way to do multiple searches for different files.Here is the scenario: I want to search for various icons one by one in a script. Preference is for the gnome icon theme.
The echo piped into grep part seems to take a long time. Is there a quicker way of doing this?I do not want to use slocate, sqlite or the like since that will require admin privileges to update the database and/or extra dependencies.
I deleted the search engines in chromium and made scroogle my default search engine. (im a huge privacy nut) But with this random daily build of chromium, whenever I close it, it deletes scroogle from my default searches.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have several directories of subtitles for some videos, but all the text for the subtitles in each file is in uppercase, and I would like to convert the files' content to lowercase, all in one go. I found on a website a bash command that would do each file separately:tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]' <input.txt> output.txt but of course involves specifying the input name and output name for each file.I have been trying to do it in a script that would work for all files in the current directory, without having to rename them each time, if that's possible. So far I've got the following, which doesn't work:
#!/bin/bash
for file in $@; do
tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'
done
However, my web searches cannot locate a way of specifying "each file in current directory" in conjunction with the "tr" command, but also without having to rename the file once converted to lowercase. Is it possible, or would the tr command have to create a new file for each converted file?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to write a script that can search up to 3 parameters and find all files containing those words. then display them and the amount of hits it got.if the first parameter exists, then we can assume we are looking for the word supplied.if the second parameter exists, then we are looking for files with both keywords.if third parameter exists test the second parameter for the values ('and', 'or', '-v') and search accordingly. These are the only values accepted as the the second one when 3 parameters are present.
lastly, if there are zero or more than three parameters echo as an error and when 3 parameters have been entered we echo an error when the second parameter is not one of the following: 'and', 'or', '-v'.

I'm having problems installing Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook onto my Asus 900. I downloaded the .iso then used the "make startup disc" feature in my Mint 9 desktop machine to make a usb install disk. All appears well at that point. When I try to boot from the usb stick, I get an error message as follows:
