Ubuntu :: Use Kchmviewer To Look At A Few EBooks But Its Rendering The Pages Incorrectly
Aug 9, 2011
I'm trying to use kchmviewer to look at a few eBooks but its rendering the pages incorrectly. Black text on black background. I heard that kchmviewer is the only chmviewer with a decent GUI. Does anyone have any alternatives?
I have gotten my project ubuntu server 10.04 up and running and logged in remotely with a terminal emulator program called AccuTerm that I use from work. It has multiple control files and want to know which file works best with ubuntu server. My reason for asking is some of the manual pages do not display correctly and keyboard functions seem to function incorrectly via VT100 and I have eighteen to choose from?
I guess this is a part deux, since I already posted one rendering issue which was eventually resolved ... having to do with the themes of this Debian Forum. Well, I don't know if this is related to that, but yesterday I noticed on another site that my Iceweasel 4.01 is not displaying portions of pages properly. See attached images. Both Chrome & Opera display that page correctly, I've included a screenshot of the same page with Chrome. I have JAVA installed and everything works perfectly fine accross the board on all browsers, except for this "once in a while" issue with Iceweasel. I've noticed this "missing content oddity" on three sites so far (out of 50 or more). No problem with eBay, craigslist, paypal, and other major players.
Open the images with a new tab, then compare both images side by side for best results. Iceweasel: [url] Chrome: [url]
I downloaded an FLV video and placed an extra MP3 file over it. Two files. Total: 30 MBI experimented with about seven rendering containers, and QuickTime renderer was the only rendering container that didn't result in sped-up/compressed video or correct rendering for just fifteen seconds.How in the name of all that is holy did this rendering end up with 570 extra MB?
I recently downloaded Frets On Fire and the HRP Polymer pack for Duke3D...Duke3D runs fine with just EDuke32 and no mods, just Duke3D and EDuke32. But when I try the HRP Polymer pack, it says in Terminal "NVIDIA: Direct Rendering failed, attempting indirect rendering." This is fine...if I want the game to lag like hell, I'm sure my video card and the driver for it support DR, the video card is a NVIDIA Geforce FX 5200, the same message appears in terminal when I run Frets On Fire, I think it does with other games too, if someone could explain how to enable Direct Rendering.
My uncle is a spiritual person and has a lot of ebooks, documents, web pages saved and put into a lot of folders. The collection has grown very huge and it has become impossible and cumbersome to keep track of the collection and manage the files and folders. ?

tried install kchmviewer (5.1) from slackBuilds, but it seems like it's not compatible with slackware13.0 64bit. Also tried to install firefox chm reader add on, but its also 32bit available only! Has anyone installed any kinda of chm reader on slackware 13.0 64bit.
This is the first time I'm trying out chmsee on 11.4 (I've tried on previous version - never had any issues with it).The problem is chmsee fails to start. It gives error as shown below:
Code: ** (chmsee:11798): WARNING **: GECKO_UTILS >>> Couldn't find a compatible GRE! ** ERROR **: Initialize html render engine failed!
I have a Cent OS 5.4 32 bit final installed in my dedicated server.
I used to run lighttpd with php in my server until now and all was fine.But yesterday I changed my website which needs apache to run. So installed apache using yum install httpd command.
Then I added the virtual host name of my domain in webmin panel but when i try to run my php script in browser then its not opening php pages.
Instead it downloads php files like index.php when i open in browser.So I guess apache is not able to compile and run php pages. Only html pages are opening right now..
Total noob here and I am trying to figure out a way to "Check out" eBooks from the online Marmot library.
- Laptop with Ubuntu solely. - Calibre installed
This post [URl].. by No Bugs! is what has me hoping. Can I install Android: [URL].. Then install the Android version of Overdrive: [URL]..
To get books from: [URL].. with my library card. And install those books on to an eReader (probably Sony505) via Calibre? Not trying to steal the books or illegal download I just want the same "check out" capabilities as the rest of the computing public.
230Gb HD, I recently partitioned a 90Gb slice, and ran 10.10 on it for a while, but due to not using it, I fired up gparted off a live disc last night and got rid of the partition. I got Gparted to make a 5gb swap, and the rest for 10.04, all is fine, rebooted to 10.04, updated grub, it removed the entry for 10.10, but reports that my hd is only 140gb, and sda2 is a 5gb swap. What gives? Where's my disc space?
I'm very new to Linux, and I have ran a Windows XP server before, with a Apache2 Server software for Windows. and didn't have any problems with it, but I really want to set this server up with Linux.
The server is running, but the only thing that comes up in the browser, is the html pages, the pages call all the images from a folder /images/ but for some reason I can't get it to pull the folder up. None of the graphics show on any of the pages.
I also have a VirtualHost setup, and have another website set up in the DocumentRoot with the 2nd site, but it won't come up ether, even tho it is listed as the 2nd VirtualHost, and have that folder set up as the DocumentRoot.
I'm just using IP Addresses for now till I get this all sorted out.So if I enter the IP the main page comes up, just no graphics. if I enter the IP Address/2ndSiteFolder/ I get a directory listing with the 2nd site folder listed, so now if I click on the 2ndSiteFolderName, it comes up as IP/2ndSiteFolder/2ndSiteFolder/ Now the 2nd site comes up, and so does all the Graphics for that site, even if I go to some of the other subfolders site. So its just weird. I don't know what I need to do to get this to work right.
I know it has to do with setting up the folders for VirtualHost, I just don't know what it is. I have been working on this for a week, and I'm not getting anywhere..
I was playing around with my keyboard shortcuts and accidentally mapped a command to the Ctrl+C shortcut. Now I can't stop programs running in the terminal with Ctrl+C and I have no idea of how to restore this functionality.
I've been seeing things like this in Firefox since installing:
Franais Espaol
where the is a special/accented character. I've also been seeing the in places that seem likely to have some kind of quote mark, probably curved quotes. I can see straight single and double quotes. To correct this, I've tried changing the display font and the character encoding. I've also looked at the Mozilla Add-On site to see if I could find a plug-in to fix it, to no avail.
What should I try now? Currently I'm using Liberation Sans with UTF-8. I'm a native English speaker so I need a western encoding (I think), but I'd still like other characters to display properly.
No problems with CD-RW, but DVD+RW are being blanked in an incorrect way. Ubuntu cannot recognize them at all after the blanking. I have to take the disks to another computer having Windows installed to blank them via Nero, and after that I they become OK for burning in Ubuntu via Brasero. I've got an old LG CD/DVD drive which was working fine in Windows. Who can recommend another program for CD/DVD burning for Ubuntu 10.04? (correctly blanking, certainly) I have installed the suggested updates for Brasero but of no avail.
I am installing lucid, have installed nautilus-actions, and am trying to install a "Search for file in the active folder" function into nautilus-actions.. I brought up Nautilus Actions Configuration under System>Preferences and did the following:
Under Action tab Checked Display item in selection context menu Unchecked Display item in location context menu Label: Search For File In Active Folder
[Code]....
when I right click a folder and select "Search For File in Active Folder, it brings up the search tool, but the folder setting is always my home folder--not the active folder. Of course I can change the folder to be searched, but the point was to search in the active folder. I got this Search For File in Active Folder function from an Internet site that I don't remember. However, I thought --path=%M would get me the active folder.
I was just trying to add new ssh users for tonight session and really messed up badly. I first installed package ibsh (iron-bars shell). I didn't know how to use it so I just went to a new user account and added ibsh at the end of his .profile. (I wrote
Code: sudo gedit /home/username/.profile which I suspect is the problem, I should have written Code: gksu gedit /home/username/.profile ??)
Well graphical logging became impossible in my own account until I did the following in my own account:
Code: chmod 777 .profile chmod 777 .ICEauthority
But desktop is still empty. I have restarted the system. I cannot use Firefox (it works without output for 10 sec and then dies). Chromium says something like "Problems due to not being able to update profile" but works. (I cannot see any files on desktop. But if I do places > desktop I can see them.) All the mentioned files had -------- for permissions so I did:
Code: chmod 777 ~/Desktop/*
How to get my system back to normal. I think I got botched up permissions. If I create new user accounts, I get several error messages in these accounts.
I have got four webservers and one fileserver, all running Karmic and kernel 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:05:01 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux.A folder on the fileserver has been exported using NFSv3 with these options: rw,async,no_subtree_check and mounted on all four webservers with these options: efaults,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,noatimeThe webservers run Apache+PHP+APC. Some php-files include other php-files from the nfs mount, and are requested by users very frequently (~ 100 times per second). Sometimes but not always if I alter an included php-file using FTP (the FTP server is ProFTPD and runs on the fileserver), the file seems missing:user@webserver1: ~ $ ls --full-time -al /path/to/included/file.phpls: cannot access /path/to/included/file.php: No such file or directoryI can repeat this command for hours, but the file keeps missing. Until I query the directory:user@webserver1: ~ $ ls --full-time -al /path/to/included/ | grep file-rwxr-xr-x 1 1002 1002 14294 2010-07-04 21:11:30.000000000 +0200 file.php
I have a very strange issue. I have a desktop Ubuntu 10.04 system that has worked just fine for months. Now suddenly grub won't find the root partition which is an ext3 partition (/dev/sda2).The strange thing about this -- I can boot with the install CD and can mount it just fine when using mount -t ext3. If I don't supply the "ext3" type however it identifies the type as "silicon_medley_raid_member" and can't mount it. If I go into the Ubuntu 10.04 Admin>Disk Utilty -- it too identifies the type of the partition as "silicon_medley_raid_member" not ext3. Same with blkid -p. With that I get:
/dev/sda2: VERSION="42758.8269" TYPE="silicon_medley_raid_member" USAGE="raid"I have other ext3 partitions that are recognized OK. When I mount the strange partition forcing ext3 -- it too seems ok. I ran fsck.ext3 on it -- with -f - and no errors were found. I backed up the partition with tar -- again -- no errors archiving. I've even tried zeroing the first 1024 bytes of the partition -- that had no effect on this issue.So what is going on with this. Any ideas? Any ideas how to fix this issue? What am I missing?
Whenever I insert a dvd or a cd, it automatically mounts to /media/[name], Like for example, the DVD I have in now mounts to /media/TBC3.2.0 (TBC3.2.0 is the name of the disc itself).
I'm needing this to mount to a regular point like /media/cdrom0 or whatever. How can I fix this?

I think I found a bug with the maverick installer. [URL]. The installer is incorrectly reading my partition table I'm afraid it might overwrite data. /dev/sda3 is the target for the install.
/dev/sda1 = 200M = Windows system partition /dev/sda2 = 239G = Windows install /dev/sda3 = 50G = Where I want to install Linux /dev/sda4 = 45G = NTFS storage
At first I had /dev/sda3 as a RAW type. In fact the only way I could create ext4 is via mkfs. I did unmount them before proceeding - mounted just as a reference in the screenshot. fdisk reads the same thing. Fresh install from LiveCD. I only have Wipe entire disk or Advanced in the installer. I don't have the "Install along side another OS" option.
Some of my rather useful applications have stopped being useful after a fresh installation of lucid. In particular, the fonts rendered on emacs, openoffice and others look awful to unreadable. Attached is an example screenshot for emacs but it doesn't appear to be application specific. Also, I have a hunch it has to do with my graphics driver (Linux-x86, Nvidia Driver v195.36.24 ona GeForce 6200 TurboCache).
I've got a couple of new hard disks that I have partitioned (3 partitions per disk) and set up in a mirrored software raid array using mdadm. They've synced, I've put file systems on them (1 x ext4, 2 x luks + ext4) and I can mount them. I've checked the partitions using fdisk. I've checked the filesystems using fsck. So far so good. Next step is that I'd like mdadm to automatically assemble them on boot. (Not bothered about mounting and crypttabing yet.)
I've used sudo /usr/share/mdadm/mkconf to generate a new mdadm.conf with the appropriate UUIDs for the new partitions. I've checked that this matches the output of sudo mdadm --detail --scan
I have been doing some research on problems I have been having and I have narrows Compiz down to being the problem. I am running the prop Nvidea driver. I can use Unity 2d fine however I cannot use Unity at all I just get a blank screen with the mouse cursor no desktop ever loads. I have tried switching between gdm and kdm. I have now worked out that compiz looks like the problem. If I issue a compiz --replace at the terminal I get the same sort of problem I get when I log into the Unity 3d. I loose my left hand monitor (it goes black but I can move my mouse around) and on my right hand monitor I can operate things using the keyboard but when you click with the mouse it does not work although you can move it around fine. Never used Compiz and I dont know if anyone knows any troubleshooting I can try I have exhausted what I could find on the Internet (A few exports of global variables but none fixed anything).
I am having what I think is a slightly weird problem with the way some of my keys on my keyboard are mapped. When I try entering the "backslash" keys i get < and for the pipe key i get >. I have tried going through the keyboard layouts and trying other combinations but to no avail
