Ubuntu :: Where To Download Old WxWidgets 2.4.2 From
Jan 24, 2011
I need to download wxWidgets 2.4.2 but can't find it anywhere on the net. Yes I know it is extremely old, but sometimes old packages are better than new ones. Or 2.4.5. Its a real pain because I know there are security risks associated with old widgets but the programs I want to run only run on widgets 2.4.
I did fine with Ubuntu 9.04 for a month and then things went wrong and I could no longer compile programs though others on the same distro could so I reinstalled Ubuntu 9.04.First step is to compile wxWidgets. Before this was automatic sudo make install libgtk2.0-dev, download wxGTK from wxWidgets then compile and make wxWidgets.Now I can't even do that, I get make errors every time and as soon as I resolve one. another shows. Widgets version 2-8-10 is the same as before. Does anyone know a current address for a tutorial getting widgets to compile with Ubuntu, I don't know whether to ask you, Ubuntu or Widgets (or understand what went wrong with Ubuntu in the first place.
I have tried using cairo-dock but not much impressed as its more flashy(installation was very easy ), Today i tried installing simdock which is showing me some error like. checking for wx-config... no configure: error:wxWidgets must be installed on your system. check that wx-config is in path, the directory where wxWidgets libraries are installed (returned by 'wx-config --libs' or 'wx-config --static --libs' command) is in LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent variable and wxWidgets version is 2.8.0 or above "How to get thru this problem.
XMMS2, with the crossfade plugin will play gapless...assuming it will play at all. Sometimes I can get it to work when I end pulseaudio, and sometimes not. And now it's just not working at all. Audacious has a crossfade plugin that I'm informed works with gapless...but as soon as I install the plugin, audacious just stops working. MOC claims to have gapless support, but now that I've (supposedly) successfully installed it, I am buggered if I can find it on my computer.
Guayadeque, which I found out about in the last ten minutes, is said to work with gapless, but having followed the detailed instructions on how to install it, I cannot get it to install. I keep getting some crap about "wxWidgets not found" Rhythmbox is claimed to have gapless support. It doesn't. Exaile is supposed to have some kind of gapless/crossfade thing, but it doesn't seem to do anything at all.
Aqualung will do gapless, and at a pinch I'll use it, but if I want to skip to the next track or adjust the volume, at least fifteen seconds will elapse between me telling it to do something, and it doing what it's bloody well told!
I am at a university where my bandwidth is severely capped. I can start several other computers near me and download at the limited speed simultaneously. Is there any way for me to share the download between the computers to get the cumulative speed?
I just installed 11.04, and the software center is almost unusable. I'm currently clocking about 32kb/s on my modern laptop. Does anyone know how to fix this? PS- During install, it took 20 minutes to download the language packs, and it said I would be there close to forever for the update downloads.
I want to download open suse but it takes up to an hour to download the 600mb .iso, my internet speed aren't that slow though. Im downloading the Live KDE, Direct Link 32-bit, all the other types of download have strange torrent or metalink fileformat. Is this just me
Alternative to Internet Download Manager (IDM) to download movies from any website.Ok, so one of the cool things about IDM was that i was able to download movies from ..... and other sites that have video clips on their site, but now that i have switch all my computers over to ubuntu linux, i now need an alternative to this problem because IDM will not work with the firefox on ubuntu linux.So my question is, do you guys know of an alternative software for downloading movies from any site such as ..... and other sites?
Here at home I have several Ubuntu installations, mine, the kids computers and a couple of laptops. What I'm looking for is a solution or a pointer in the right direction to setup on our local Ubuntu server a sort of cache. Each day each Ubuntu on the network, checks for updates and downloads, and installs. What I'm looking for is a way for one machine to download the update and then the others to download from the local resource.
A sort of local cache to try and minimise everyone downloading straight from the net for pretty much the same updates. I did a emerge cache many years ago when I was using Gentoo, so I'm wondering what I can use/do here with Ubuntu as we are all loving this distro now.
This is our first time choosing and installing linux. Our other servers are all windows 2008 x64. We were told to install fedora 13. I can only find a download for the desktop version and we're looking for the SERVER x64 download. Could I please get a link?
How to repartition a hard drive using Mepis 3.3, none of the listed sites will open to me. Is this the best software to repartition a new Windows 7 hard drive? I notice there are later versions of the Mepis software.
I have been using ubuntu for a good time and now i want to install opensuse.I have dwnlded the new (11.2) version 2 times but on installing it says unable to create repository. it takes a full day to dwnld here.. please suggest how to use the existing dwnld or a way toget a correct dwnld. i think the earlier one is corrupt.
I haved tried 3 times to download DVD-7 from http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/...md64/jigdo-dvd, and every time it has failed with just 5 files left to download.
It says: I cannot begin to describe. All those hours of downloading for nothing! What the heck is happening here? When I try to just continue on, I get error code 3 aborts and have to just start all over.
First I go to the following URL to download the latest version of VLC Player, which I greatly prefer to Totem or any other standard Linux video/audio player: http://www.fileguru.com/Movie-Player/download. After I click on the "Download" link, a new window appears which asks me if I want to 1) Open with Archive Manager (default) or 2) Save File. There is a drop down arrow next to the first choice which only gives "Other..." as the only other choice. Well, if I choose the first option, the download appears as an .exe file in the "Downloads" window.
A window with "Download Error" in its Title Bar appears with the following message in it: "/tmp/VLC_Player_Setup-3.exe could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences." I don't even know yet how to even open up an .exe file in Linux, despite repeated research.
Which download manager i can use for linux and how...kindly let me know can i use windows download manager such as DAP or internet download manager with wine in linux...
i just installed ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop and i went on a website and was required to download the newest flash player, i started the download. in the middle of the download i lost my connection to the internet and the download froze, i reconnected it and it didn't continue (not that i expected it to) so i tried to close it but it wouldn't, i tried everything i could, it just wouldn't close, it was frozen like that, so i decided all i can do is restart my comp. after i restarted my computer no downloads work anymore. i tried redownload flash and this is the error i got:E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the probelmE:_cache->open() failed, please report.
i tried running Sudo dpkg --configure -a but it only read sudo, so after that i tried it without the sudo, so just dpkg --configure -a and this is the response i got:requested operation requires superuser privilegeso i don't know what to do now. i get the exact same error when i try to download ubuntu updates as when i try to download flash.another downloading problem that i have is when i try to download something from Ubuntu software center the download progress bar shows up and under the downlaod name it says "waiting for other software managers to quit" and the progress stays at 0%, no matter how long you wait it stays that way, it's like that with anything i try to download from Ubuntu software Center andrestarting my comp dosen't help at all.
It seems every so often I freeze up, mouse still moves, can still navigate the browser by mouse, but not by keyboard, cant click on anything on top like applications, places, system
