gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.4.3
Yet javac -version gives the following:

How do I configure the default jre to the correct version? I cannot even find linux version of jre, only jdk, which I installed already.
I need a driver for a USB2.0 card with a Via chipset on Xubuntu 9.10. I have just visited the Via website and tried Linux Portal, and I found the following available for download: Unified GFX driver Ver 86a-50937 for Ubuntu 9.04(26Oct09) (3.4M). Two questions. One, does this cover USB? Two, it is listed for 9.04, would this cover 9.10 as well?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently set up Kubuntu for my parents, and its working fine, other than the screen resolution. When I log in, it uses 800x600 when it should be using 1280x1024. I've tried to generate/ edit xorg.conf, but Kubuntu doesn't seem to pay attention to it. Also, I don't know if it matters, but it seems to be detecting a second screen that doesn't exist (see picture). That "monitor" can only go up to 800x600, but when I disabled it, it stayed off. When it was on and I pressed identify monitors, however, it put both labels on the main monitor. Here's the picture of the two monitors:

I have a Dell Inspiron 1545 with Ubuntu Karmic that was working like a charm until last week.When I'm using my college's wireless I can browse just fine, but when I'm in my home's network the web addresses cannot be resolved.I was suspecting of DNS error, but it's the same DNS address in all the other computers, and the whole network is working just fine.The thing is that if I use the IPs, for instance 64.233.163.104 for Google, it works fine, both pinging and browsing. So the problem is in resolving the addresses...

After doing the proposed security updates (re)booting stalls with a message like:One or more mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot be mounted yet /home: waiting for UUID.In the escape shell I can see from /etc/fstab that /home was mounted to /dev/sda6. But when calling blkid this device is missing.Trying to mount /home I get the error:mount: special device UUID=... does not exist.In other threads I have read that the UUID-entry for /home in /etc/fstab has to be corrected. But how do I get the correct UUID? Will making a live-CD, booting from it and then calling blkid give me the UUID for /dev/sda6?

I am running a laptop with a windows partition and a ubuntu partition. I partitioned from windows, then setup the linux partition from the ubuntu cd and formatted it to ext4. I am running the Ubuntu 11.0.4 and Windows 7. PROBLEM: All reports indicate that the Ubuntu /home directory is eating 66 GB when there is no indication that is using even a fraction of that space. What can I do to reclaim the space?

View 7 Replies View RelatedRight now I'm running Jaunty with Firefox 3.0. That's what it comes with. I tried adding FF3.6 using some instructions, adding the repository etc.. But, that was aimed at Karmic users and it triggured all sorts of dependency errors in Synaptic. So things got a bit screwed up. God knows what version I have installed now but it sure isn't 3.6! So tomorrow I plan to do a clean install of of Jaunty. Then I'd like to upgrade to Firefox 3.6. What is the correct and clean way of doing that, adding the correct repository this time? I want to replace 3.0 with 3.6 not have both versions on my system.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe problem: when kpackagekit would prompt me to update packages, it would ask for my password. I would enter it, and the dialog would reject it with the message "incorrect password, please try again". Over and over. The password WAS correct -- it worked in Synaptic and on the command line using sudo, and obviously it also worked for logging in.
I suddenly had a hunch that kpackagekit might not be the culprit, and that authentication was being done by a different program -- and lo and behold, the dialog actually said policykit up there...
So, searching for policykit problems out there, I ended up seeing someone reinstalling theirs for their problem (which happened to be different from mine). The code to do that, in the command line:
Code:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall policykit
After that, entering the password after kpackagekit prompts me to has worked fine and the updates happen as nature intended.

I was trying to get my brand new xubuntu install on a Dell Latitutude get going with a kvm switch. I shut down the machine -> connected the kvm cable -> powered it back on and the keyboard/mouse work fine in the login screen, HOWEVER, I just can't get past the login screen, it keeps refreshing the screen even if my authentication is correct.
I unplugged the usb kvm cable, restarted but the problem does not go away.
I can't login to recovery mode (press esc during GRUB load), it doesn't offer any recovery options, goes straight to the login screen.
I'm slowly figuring out Mythbuntu. How cool it is! I continue to have this problem...Some channels have trouble locking initially. Some even hang while viewing. Using exactly the same antenna and cabling, my Samsung DTB-H260F has no such issue. All channels are rock solid. Is there some setting not correct in MythTV? Do I need to invest in a better tuner?

I'm trying to install Ubuntu Netbook 10.10 to an Asus EeePC 1000H (160GB HDD). (I know it will be slow because of Mutter/i945). The usb stick boots just fine but when it comes to the partition part it goes wrong.
I have 3 partitions:Windows 7 (50GB)
This will be Ubuntu Netbook (50GB)
DATA (60GB)
But the partition manager just shows 160GB of unallocated space. I have tried to reboot and create the partitions with other software (even with GParted LiveCD) but the result is the same.

I have tried removing this and reinstalling both from the website link and from Ubuntu repository, but still cannot convince Firefox that I do indeed have the necessary Flash plug-in.

I: Checking component main on http://bg.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu. Problem is that this is the old repo I've used. After installing pbuilder and the other dpkg essential packages I've run "sudo pbuilder create", noticed the message of the repo and since I am no longer in Bulgaria, interrupted the script, went to synaptic and changed the repo from there (now is http://archive.linux.duke.edu/ubuntu/).
