Dec 16, 2009I've been trying to install Compiz 0.8.4 from the source code provided by the Compiz people.
However, when I run make on the first set of code (compiz-0.8.4 tar package), it halts with the following error:
Code:
As well as --disable-gconf and --disable-gnome since gnome isn't install on Slackware (I've also tried it without those, but it picks up on it anyway and throws them out). The folder I'm running this from is /root/Desktop/Compiz Fusion/compiz-0.8.4.
Ubuntu :: Compiz - No Workspaces Or Wobbly Windows After A Botched Source Install?
Sep 15, 2010In order to correct bug #459647 in compiz (as I have done on 2 other PCs) I downloaded, modified, and compiled the source with apt-src and make. Then I installed the produced .deb files with dpkg -i. For whatever reason the new compiz didn't have wobbly windows nor could I switch workspaces. Compiz is running and I do know however that compositing is working as Docky is still functional (and doesn't really work without compositing).
So I uninstalled all of the compiz packages and reinstalled the versions from the official repository. The same issue remained. During this time I have restarted my computer several times with different configurations. I tried to install compiz packages from the [URL]...ubuntu PPA and still the same problems exist. I'm not sure if there are any other problems that I haven't noticed yet. Finally, in an attempt to fully purge my computer of all things compiz and start over, I got the following error:
Code:
masen@dv6000m:~$ sudo apt-get autoremove --purge compiz*
[sudo] password for masen:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package compiz-code
masen@dv6000m:~$
I'm not sure what "compiz-code" is, but that's the name of the folder that I downloaded the source into. After this command, no packages are removed. I'm currently running Lucid 10.4.1 with all the latest updates. My graphics card is an Intel 945M mobile chipset. I run a similar configuration on 2 other computers with no issues. Has anyone ever seen this? Or have any idea how I can get compiz-code out of my package database. I know the problems I'm encountering aren't high priority, but not having workspaces gets annoying and I have no clue what else is broken with my 'half-broken' compiz.
Ubuntu :: Icons Changing On Their Own After Installing Compiz?
Jan 3, 2011I'm using an Acer Aspire One with ubuntu 10.10 Desktop/Netbook and Kubuntu 10.10 installed.I'm using Compiz for the window manager and Emerald for the decorator. I know my problem has something to do with compiz because after uninstalling it, the problem went away, so I'm hoping I'm just missing a setting somewhere.After installing compiz, my icons/system theme (not my window decorations) will change on their own,(Please see attached screenshots) and even when I choose, let's say, 'ambiance' in the appearance menu, the panels for gnome will change, but the icons will not. the only way i can get the ubuntu mono-dark icons to reappear is to logout/restart, etc. However, it will still switch to unity icons on a seemingly random basis. It is a little thing, but it is driving me crazy

Ubuntu :: Installing The Thunderbird From Source?
Feb 25, 2011Since I cannot find a deb of thunderbird 3.3, I would like to find another way to install 3.3 on maverick. I have no experience installing from source, so I may need to be coached through it step by step, but I am eager to learn and VERY motivated Why? I am trying to switch from gmail webmail to thunderbird, because of enigmail and privacy. However, I have been spoiled by gmail's elegance, and in order to get the conversation view add-on, so thunderbird still looks like gmail, the add-on requires the 3.3 version of thunderbird. The latest stable version which is in the repos (maverick) is older (3.1). I have already have done the following:
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
then i downloaded the files and extracted to my home directory.now, according to the ubuntugeek, I should execute the following commands:
Code:
./configure make
sudo make install
clean install
but I have a few doubts:
1) Should I first uninstall thunderbird 3.1? and enigmail?
2) Where do I install it, so it can still find my mails and work as now?
3) If it doesn't work out, can I go back, and if so, how? Once installed, will it be uninstallable from apt or synaptic?
4) Will Ubuntu continue to upgrade my thunderbird once a newer version is available at some time in the future?
Ubuntu :: After Installing Fglrx, Kde4-window-decorator Crashes When Run Compiz?
Sep 24, 2010I was using the open source ATI drivers and KDE's compositing worked, so I hadn't installed compiz. I wanted to try fglrx because I thought a) I might be able to get temperature readings, and b) it might stop Kubuntu from making my computer incredibly hot (in Windows 7 it stays cool). So I installed fglrx by enabling it in the restricted hardware drivers thing, and things worked, but compositing was disabled and no matter what I did I couldn't enable it. So I installed compiz. When I run compiz, I get the following output:
Code:
toby@tensile:~$ compiz --replace

Ubuntu Installation :: Installing Latest Mediawiki From Source
May 28, 2011I downloaded latest mediawiki, moved the tarball to /usr/share/ exploded the tarball via
Code:
then
Code:
Then in your web browser point to local host 127.0.0.1/wiki
It will then bring you to the wiki configuration setup pages, and you may install databases for this package via phpmyadmin. im going to remove the alias to php my admin after i am done using it again to cut off outside world from seeing the php my admin login page for security reasons.
Im going to do this by adding a # infront of the alias in /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf and making it look like this.
Code:
My next to default ubuntu install says we should install caching, and pecl.
Pecl search in synaptic shows dh-make-php as first result. install that, then install [url] extension for mediawiki. i already have apache mysql and php installed, but if you dont have those installed they are requried.
download latest [url], tar -xf intl* to explode package.
## im clearly going to have to refine this.... php-apc shows up in synaptic, installing it does not stop the wiki installer page from throwing errors. going to try [url] to see if that resolves one
download the latest source of eaccelerator.
[url]
tar -xf eaccelerator source package to explode it,
phpize command tells me i need php-dev package, i pull the package from synaptic. i also grab libicu-dev while i am at it.
Code:
goes through, then
Code:
Code:
add to the top of the file the e accelerator info.
Code:
Code:
Code:
Then purge eaccelerator source directory and pure the tarball out of your system.
At this point we are going to make a database for the mediawiki by uncommenting the alias that keeps phpmyadmin shut off from attacks.
Code:
Then
Code:
Then point the browser @ 127.0.0.1/phpmyadmin
Then setup your database for wikipedia, i named mine wiki
Make a user, i named mine wiki.
Password your database, and follow prompts in the media wiki package
Comment the alias of phpmyadmin to disable the phpmyadmin pannel/address
Restart apache and your good to go on linking the wiki.

Code:
checking for OPENSSL... configure: error: Package requirements (openssl) were not met:
No package 'openssl' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables OPENSSL_CFLAGS and OPENSSL_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. i ve come to "PKG_CONFIG_PATH" a lot of times while trying to install something manually on fedora.
Red Hat / Fedora :: Installing GCC From Source - RHEL 4u7
Sep 17, 2010I am trying to install gcc from source, but wish to install to an alternative location, ie /opt/gcc/4.4.4.
I have done so but ran into the problem that the system libs in /usr/lib64 were being located before my libs in /opt/gcc/4.4.4/lib64.
So, I set --libdir=/usr/lib and reinstalled. The libs link in correctly, but now g++ cant find includes, for instance <complex>. I think I could set CPATH to point to the locations of these includes but that doesn't seem like it should be necessary.
So my question is, what is the correct way to install gcc alongside the system versions while allowing linkage to the right libs and location of the includes? I don't want to use prefixes or suffixes because the intel compiler looks at gcc -v to get clues as to how to compile stuff.
It should be noted that I have no internet connectivity on this machine, so building from source is my only option.
