I recently attempted to install the ubuntu restricted extras package, and it eventually led me to a certain screen (screenshot attached.) It seems I need to agree to the terms of use, but I can't seem to actually agree to it. I can't click <Ok>, I've tried pressing enter, pressing y then enter, pressing ok then enter, and a few other things.
View 9 RepliesDoes anyone know how to automatic accept the EULA for ttf-mscorefonts-installer?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed today's boat load of updates. During the installation a Microsoft agree to the EULA screen came up from the referenced package. Screw that I said and did not agree. The update installations seemed to run with no problems. This evening I found that the fonts used by an application which I run under wine (Forte Agent news reader) had gone to crap. All very light and hard to read.
I manually installed the offending package and agreed to the EULA. It downloaded and installed a bunch of fonts. The wine environment seems to be OK.So then I restored my OS from a recent g4l snap shot. I installed all updates except for 4 related to ttf fonts. Again the wine environment seems OK.Why is Canonical providing something which requires a Microsoft EULA I wonder?
just installed ubuntu on my laptop (msi gt640) and, whilst attempting to install something from the software center, get an error. in full, it is: There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks.

I am having trouble with the advanced partitioning, I dont know what any of the mount points are for. I have a 64GB SSD which I want to use only for the boot files, and I have a 640GB which I want to place everything else on, as to preserve the life of the SSD. How should I configure my mount points/partitions in the ubuntu 11.04 installer?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just downloaded and burned Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit to install as a dual boot on my Dell Optiplex GX270 with WinXP and 256mb RAM. I boot into the CD and I select install now, and then an error message pops up saying it failed to start the installation, and that it is going to start a graphical interface so you can investigate the problem and try again. I really would like to install Ubuntu on my desktop because its much faster than Windows XP and I can't use wubi because of the 256mb ram.

I just switched from Ubuntu to Fedora 13 because I was unable to get Ubuntu to connect to wireless networks. I tried everything suggested in help and forums, and kept getting "Bad Password" with WICD and Network Manager. Now, with Fedora...I still can't connect.
Problem #1: The guide says to "...make sure that the relevant wireless interface (usually eth0 or eth1) is controlled by NetworkManager," and that I do this via: System>Administration>Network
However, there is no Network option under System>Administration.
Problem #2: I open Network Manager, which displays a list of networks. I click on mine, configure it with WPA and the right password, and it fails to connect: "The network connection has been disconnected."

I'm new to Ubuntu and I'm remote from the server. I'm setting up an Ubuntu server 10.04 x64.

What do I need to load to get X working enough to export the display back to myself. I need to provide additional information. Since I'm new I may not have adequately covered what's needed.

I have just installed Lubuntu (from Ubuntu). I would like to add a few items to the right-click menu. I tried doing it using ObMenu as well as directly by editing the configuration files in /home/{user}/.config/openbox, but the default remains unchanged (even after reloading the configurations from the right-click menu or rebooting). Could someone give detailed instructions (e.g. where should I add some apps so as to see on the right click applications list?). The default on my right-click are a file manager, a browser and a terminal.
Also, I dont see a way to edit the main menu (the one at the lower left corner of my screen) anymore, although I remember to have accessed it from the main menu somewhere.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have tried various rules, like opening port 53 for the DNS with little success. I finally figured that you need to set the source port to 53 and NOT the destination port.However, I have been unable to figure out what ports apt-get requires. The only way I get it to work is to accept everything in iptables.

I can't configure the monitor. and the display.
I've tried with both the built in display configure and the Nvidia one. Can't choose 1600x900 on either one.
I either can't see all the display on the monitor, or it takes on some weird panning mode and looks like the display is about 2500x1500 or something.
Here's the xorg.conf file. Clearly it does not see the new monitor and the modes are wrong. These settings are for the previous monitor. How Can I fix this so that my display works properly? Thanks.

I was using LDAP authentication for my http shares access. But I screwed but the LDAP server and now I wanted to configure my http shares against NIS authentication.
I followed the procedure to setup NIS client, added:
Though I am able to ssh to my machine using NIS user, the http is still not authenticating the users
It fails with the following message in /var/log/secure
httpd: pam_unix(httpd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=48 euid=48 tty= ruser= rhost= user=nisuser
48 is the default apache user in my /etc/passwd
I don't have any pam_ldap.so in my httpd pam file since I had to remove LDAP configurations and I can't switch back to LDAP.
I've installed glib-2.2.1 on ubuntu 8.04 with the typical ./configure --prefix=/usr/; make ; make install process ,everything appeared to go fine. When running the configure script in the pygobject-2.21.0 , it stops on an error looking for glib.
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.22.4... no
-Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
-The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
-exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed.
configure: error: maybe you want the pygobject-2-4 branch?
How should glib be installed. I have already installed older version of glib. Will it be overwrited with new version ?
