Ubuntu :: Unable To Get Ncomputing To Work For A Short While With Intrepid?
Feb 24, 2010
I wanted to know anyone's experience with the new deb package ncomputing released for Intrepid. I've used their products and fought my way through to make them work. I was able to get ncomputing to work for a short while with intrepid, but upon installing the video drivers (and rebooting) the l230 hasn't been able to connect to any other host. (With Intrepid running). I've updated the firmware but the box still refuses to connect, for awhile it would say TS error (....). The system log only showed,
Date SystemName ncltsd [6198]: ERROR: NULL == video
[18043]: ERROR: SrvCli.CreateSession () failed! (3211426, 1869984)
Any help I can get would be much appreciated. If I forgot anything of I apologize, as you probably noticed it's my first time using the forum and I have only been using Ubuntu for a little less than a year.

I updated Fedora 9 yesterday. I rebooted earlier and now the desktop starts for a very short time then disappears followed by a window opening and closing for a few goes. After this nothing! YUM does not work, neither does Firefox! A bug report informed me there was a Python problem but I can find no reference to this anywhere.

i'm trying to write a bash script to upload an image to [URL], but i can't get i working properly. Everytime i try, the html returns me a error saying "Upload is disabled during short maintenance work (ETA 10 minutes). Brb!", while from the browser everything works fine. This is my current command line:
Code: curl -L -b cookie-pix.txt -c newcookie.txt www.pixhost.org/cover-upload -A "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)" -F 0=@/home/admin/Desktop/karm.jpg -F content_type=0 -F press=Upload And this is the html of the form:

i'm still on Intrepid (i know, i'm behind the times) and i've been poking around for simple-straightforward info on how to upgrade my VLC 0.9.4 to 1.x.....but everything i've found seems to assume one is already on Jaunty at least. even videolan.org has simple-straightforward info for upgrading VLC for all distros as far back as Hardy....except for Intrepid. and i'm half-tempted to just try following the steps given for those who are on Jaunty and just seeing what happens.....though i also can't help but think that it may be dangerous to do that. does it even matter at all which ubuntu version i'm on, and i'm worrying about it for nothing? xD

I'm having trouble with some qt-based apps that did work previously but now do not. So far I've seen this with Skype, VLC and umbrello. Applications appear to execute but GUI never seems to initialise. CPU remains around 90%. I'm using an eeepc 1000H running ubuntu intrepid 8.10 with adam's kernel 2.6.27-8-eeepc. Any ideas on how I can debug this? As I mentioned these applications worked fine in the past, I'm guessing an update broke them.

I still use Intrepid 8.10 on one of my older machines and have tried, but in vain, to install some rar compression software from the repos. It seems as if the specified repo for 8.10 is now end of life Would anyone know of where I could download a .deb file containing an older version of rar which would install correctly on by box ?

I know it's kind of my fault but I have this problem. I have two machines running Intrepid. I should have upgraded them in due time but what's done is done. Now I need to install some packages there but the Intrepid is no longer supported - Intrepid repositories are no longer available.

I decided to report what happened me lately so that someone more clever could find the hole in the latest ubuntu. So: I have a machine connected 24/7 on high speed network. i had karmic on it. i ran openssh and apache2 (without any mod, plain apache2) on it. In addition i ran firefox, ktorrent, and amule on it. Nothing else. The system didnt have any rule in iptables.
Recently chkrootkit signaled a SuckIT rootkit in the system. I was scared, i googled for it and i saw that on ubuntu this actually happened and it was a false positive. Ok, i kept going. Yesterday i nmapped myself and i found an open port around 64000 that i couldnt see with netstat -atpnl so i concluded i was actually infected and erased the drive and tried to install lucid alpha2 so, one day of lucid,
- with a firewall this time that let open only the port 22 and 80 from internet
- with only openssh as service (no apache2)
- ran firefox3.6 , ktorrent and amule , nothing else
chkrootkit didnt find anything
debsums reported
debsums: changed file /sbin/initctl (from upstart package)
i did an apt-get install --reinstall upstart and that file didnt warn anymore. So i concluded there must be some kind of vulnerability either in
a) firefox
b) ktorrent
c) amule

I would like to add Ubuntu 8.10 as a dual boot option to my Ubuntu 10.04 installation. It is not immediately obvious to me how to do so, because running the CD installation will presumably overwrite Grub2 with Grub (and might not successfully boot 10.04).
How do I install 8.10 without overwriting my Grub2, and then add 8.10 to the Grub2 menu?

I had Orca installed for absolutely no reason, and I decided to start it and try playing with the text to speech. It wasn't interesting and I closed it. Now that I've restarted the computer, in GNOME sound doesn't work for certain things (VLC, Firefox). I uninstalled Orca because it auto-started on log-in and the preferences would freeze when I tried to change them. I read about a problem in 9.10 where there is some file taht disabled pulseaudio, I don't see it and I am using 8.10 anyways. :/
EDIT: I've re-installed Orca and edited the preferences fine this time, but the sound still doesn't work for VLC and Firefox. Now I've completely uninstalled Orca from synaptic and it still doesn't work. The sound test works fine, though. I'm sure there is some configuration file Orca added something to, but I don't know how to find it.

Just installed latest Ubuntu (intrepid Ibex) on my DFI Ultra Infinity II system. It has onboard audio via a Realtek ACL650 chipset. Unfortunately, no sound. Have searched various forums, etc. and found recommendations to download the ALSA driver from realtek, but those posts are from ~2007 and the drivers are dated from back then as well. Nobody present-day seems to be suffering audio problems with this motherboard or chipset. I did install the 2007 realtek driver, but no change. What logs can I check?

I just upgraded from jaunty to intrepid. The upgrade tool went through everything without a hitch and when it finished it told me to restart my computer. When I did, ubuntu began to boot, got past the initial loading splash screen, but immediately after, before the login splash, the screen freezes with some strange graphics glitch and refuses to work from there. How can I fix this to any workable state, upgraded or not?

I had an old machine running Feisty.I followed the EOL guides and upgraded from 7.04 => 7.10 => 8.04 => 8.10 (intrepid).Now that I'm at intrepid, I want to use the update manager to upgrade to 9.04 (Jaunty). Whenever I launch update manager (System->Administration->Update Manager) everything looks fine until I choose "New distribution release '9.04' is available" and click the Upgrade button.
At this point, Update Manager complains and says "Could not find the release notes" "The server may be overloaded". I'm assuming this could be a faulty URL somewhere, but I wouldn't know where. My sources.list seems to work fine for regular intrepid updates, so not sure there would be anything there that could be the fault. Once I get this error, I can only click "close".
Extracting the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server. Obviously, my general networking is fine (or I wouldn't be able to post this message)..and again, standard updates work fine.Any insight into what is causing this (or maybe how Update Manager works so that I might try a bit of debugging myself?

Found something at [url], oh no false alarm! This thread does not explain how to change the /etc/apt/source.list either. I know what to change but do not know how.

I'm using Wicd network manager, on Ubuntu Intrepid, on a Toshiba Satellite laptop.
I installed Wicd, and incorrectly tried to set Static IP information on my Linksys network.
I unchecked both the Static IP and Manual DNS entry boxes, but whenever I try to connect it still tries to use the incorrect Static IP settings.
I have removed and re-installed Wicd, and for some reason it maintains the incorrect settings! What can I do?

I installed Ubuntu 10.04 choosing, as administrator, a User Name and a User Short Name. Now, I would like to change those names and I manage to do it with the first, but not with the second, the Short Name. At the same time, I would like to give the same new name to my personal folder in /home. Is it possible to do all that?

I have been trying to change my password on this install to a simple 2 character alpha.
I tried using the "users and groups" menu and got the error "password is too short" that also tells me that I need more that 5 characters.
After searching for a bit I found the passwd <username> command to be used in the recovery mode. I got a similar massage there too.
upon doing a fresh install I am able to initially set a simple password to do what I want, but after changing to a more secure password I have not yet found a way to get back to where I want to be. I really don't want to burn this down do yet another install.
yes, I know the system is trying to protect me from myself but that is off the point.

We are a small company producing short movies in Arabic and we stick to adobe premiere pro cs4. Lately we need to reduce our cost by moving to ubuntu to save Microsoft fees especially regular support. The main problem we have now is the tool to use for producing our short movies, so the main question is:- Does there is any tool we can use as equivalent to adobe premiere pro cs4? I am looking for a really series tool.

I have a quick question: how can I make the path short on the console? My problem is that if I descend 10 levels in a directory tree, the path becomes so long that it takes more, than one line of the console window. Is there a way to shorten it, and show only the name of the current directory, without the whole path, i.e., instead of

I've tried setting short cut keys to switch workspaces with no luck. I've tried a couple of different combination of keys and none have worked. The workspace switcher works but it's sometimes a bit anoying to reach for the mouse and a lot easier to just kit a couple of keys.
