Re: [Ubuntu-BD] Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope Feedback
Monitor resolution problem was present for me upto Intrepid. If I used nVidia driver, the monitor resolution changed to 800x600. There was no option to increase it other than editing the "xorg.conf". But in Jaunty, everything worked perfectly for me. Network manager is the same as was in Intrepid because I use GP internet through my mobile. Boot up time reduced to 70sec for me, don't know why. My HDD partition (in which Jaunty is installed) is still ext3 JFS. Firefox freezed for 3-4 seconds in several times. But thats not a big deal for me. In Intrepid, Synaptic freezed occassionally, Jaunty's Synaptic seemed more stable to me so far. -- Hafiz Imtiaz Lecturer, Department of EEE Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh.

[Ubuntu-BD] Open source alternative to Dreamweaver
Hello all Could anyone please suggest me an open source alternative to Adobe Dreamweaver? I use it regularly to update my personal website. I know about Quanta Plus and Bluefish. Quanta Plus is basically for KDE and I personally don't like running KDE apps in Gnome. Moreover, I doubt that the ease of use of Dreamweaver is present in Quanta Plus, as appears from the screenshots of Quanta Plus. I don't know HTML programming, so Bluefish is not an option, I guess. Can anyone suggest me anything else for my Ubuntu 9.04?

[Ubuntu-BD] [OT] How file systems affect computer performance
Hello I just want to share some experiences of you guys about the startup and shutdown time of your PC and thus decide how a file system affects these. My PC takes almost similar startup and shutdown time for both XP and Ubuntu 8.04.1 [85-90 sec for startup; 10-12 sec for shutdown]. I read and article on the internet that Ubuntu would start faster if the filesystem is XFS. So, I tried that. But the boot time was as it were. Now, I have mac os x 10.4.9 on my PC with HFS+ file system and it boots within 30sec and shuts down within 8sec. How could this happen? The other software start times like Firefox, VLC are the same as windows xp and ubuntu 8.04.1. How could boot time is reduced but the program start time remain the same? Where is the secret? -- Hafiz Imtiaz 0306005 EEE,BUET PH: 01915698207 www.hafizimtiaz.co.nr -- Ubuntu Bangladesh mailing list ubuntu-bd@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bd

Re: [Ubuntu-BD] [OT] openSuSE 11.1 internet connection problem
Hardware is detected properly. The notification which appears after connecting the phone is exactly the same as in Ubuntu intrepid. And I double checked it with "dmesg". I tried with "kppp" as well by installing openSuSE 11.0 KDE. But failed on that occasion too. "wvdial" and "resolv.conf" editing in KDE did the job as in gnome. Anyway, I just wanted to try the new OS, thats all. Ubuntu is really great for novice people like me. I agree ubuntu does not have the visibly soothing look, the customized openoffice suit or some other aspects, but for ease of use, there is nothing comparable to ubuntu or mint. I am sticking to hardy 8.04.1.

Re: [Ubuntu-BD] [OT] openSuSE 11.1 internet connection problem
It works. The final way of action was:
1. run "wvdialconf"
2. edit "/etc/wvdial.conf" to include phone number and "Init3" string
3. edit "/etc/resolv.conf" to include name server address
4. copy the resolv.conf file to "/etc/ppp/"
5. In terminal,type wvdial {dialer name} and hit Enter
I still wonder why a mainstream linux distro like openSuSE don't have
a easy way to configure mobile internet. Or there might be one, I may
have missed.
Thanks for the help.

[Ubuntu-BD] [OT] openSuSE 11.1 internet connection problem
Hello all Could anyone please give me a tutorial about setting up internet connection using GPRS/EDGE enabled mobile on openSuSE 11.1 (gnome) ? I have downloaded openSuSE 11.1 gnome live CD and tried many ways to connect to the internet using my SonyEricsson k550i. The network manager applet on Ubuntu 8.10 or Linux Mint 6 was very handy and could let me connect to the internet using the mobile right away from the live CD, just had to specify GrameenPhone as the operator. But in openSuSE 11.1, the network manager could not find any network operator when I command it to 'SCAN' for networks. Moreover, it somehow deletes all the data accounts from my mobile itself and set my mobile in 'FLIGHT MODE'. Anyway, then [after rebooting] I tried to use YaST modem setup to configure the mobile modem manually. But still no luck. No internet connection. But the data accounts were intact and my phone was not set to flight mode. Then I tried "wvdialconf" and edited "wvdial.conf" thereafter. This time the computer connects to the mobile phone. But if I ping any site, it says "cannot resolve hostname". After getting this message, I edited the "ip-up.local" file as following a tutorial like this: cat > /etc/ppp/ip-up.local #!/bin/sh mv /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.bak cp /etc/ppp/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf chmod 644 /etc/resolv.conf chmod +x /etc/ppp/ip-up.local But still no luck. Could anyone please help connect to the internet from openSuSE 11.1? I'll prefer GUI solution [like "gnome-ppp" on Hardy]. But command line solutions are welcome as well. Sorry for my long mail.

I know very little about the command line linux like editing xorg.conf or something like that. I opened the xorg.conf file, but everything seems obscure to me...

[Ubuntu-BD] Help needed about display resolution
Hello I have recently installed Linux Mint 6 on my Pentium 4, GeForce FX 5200 128MB, 1536MB RAM, Samsung 551s monitor PC. The problem I am facing is, initially the display resolution [both on liveCD and first boot] was OK, 1024x768. But after installing the proprietory driver for nVidia graphics card, my resolution switched to 800x600. And I can't change it from Administration-> Display Resolution. The highest value there is 800x600. I have read on this mailing list someone talking about modifying "xorg.conf" to solve this mess, but I can't find the mail. Can anyone help me to simultaneously use proprietory driver and run on 1024x768 screen resolution??

Re: [Ubuntu-BD] Mount .iso
If the filename is 'matlab.iso' [assuming it is in your home

Make mount directory for the ISO image and mount
$mkdir /media/iso
$modprobe loop
$mount /home/{yourname}/matlab.iso /media/iso/ -t iso9660 -o loop

Re: [Ubuntu-BD] Help needed about hosting a web page
Firstly, Thank you for your quick reply. @shiplu vai, I want to host a webpage which would be accessible for all. I know I don't have a static IP, but that might be covered by DynDNS or NO-IP.com type services. All I want is to host my tiny personal web page [of about 50MB total size] on my own PC. I fear to host it on my PC directly due to virus and firewall problems. Thus I have decided to create a virtual web server using VirtualBox and host the web page there. @Lenin vai, I have downloaded XAMPP for both windows and linux. I will install it manually. My main problem is the internet connectivity from Guest and Host. My host runs windows xp pro sp3 and my net connection is SonyEricsson k550i GP-EDGE. Thank you in advance. -- Hafiz Imtiaz 0306005 EEE,BUET PH: 01915698207 www.hafizimtiaz.co.nr -- Ubuntu Bangladesh mailing list ubuntu-bd@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bd

Re: [Ubuntu-BD] remove unneeded file
I faced the same problem. My graphics card is nVidia GeForce FX 5200. But I think the problem is with the monitor. When I use my old Samsung 551s monitor and download the nVidia driver, the resolution reduces to 800x600, and I couldn't change it. But if I use a newer monitor [LG 501], nVidia driver works just fine. The problem was in Hardy and in Intrepid as well. 2008/11/20 DarkLord (:= <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > আমি চাচ্ছি উবুন্টুতে তৈরী হওয়া অপ্রয়োজনীয় ফাইল যেমন টেম্প জাতীয় ফাইল বা > এমন > ফাইল যেগুলো কোন কাজের না কিন্তু অযথা ডিস্কের যায়গা দখল করে থাকে। কোন > এপ্লিকেশন দ্বারা কি করা যায়। > > আর /var/cache/apt/archives এই ফোল্ডারের ডাউনলোডকৃত প্যাকেজ গুলো ডিলিট করলে > কি কোন অসুবিধা হবে? প্রয়োজন হলে নতুন করে ডাউনলোড করতে অসুবিধা নাই। > > আর avant-window-navigator ইনস্টল করছিলাম কিনতু কাজ করে না । ডকই আসেনা। > Accssories > avant window navigator থেকে রান করতে গেলে একটা ছোট বক্স এসে > সাথেসাথে মিলিয়ে যায় কোন ডক আসেইনা। > > এবং আমি Hardware Drivers থেকে NVDIA ড্রাইভার ডাউনলোড করলে এফেক্ট আসে > ইন্টারফেসে কিন্তু ডেক্সটপ ১০২৪ - ৭৬৮ হয়ে যায় এবং সেটাই সর্বোচ্চ দেখায় > স্ক্রিন > রেজুলেশনে। অথচ তা ইনস্টল এবং একটিভ এর পূর্বে আমি 1280 - 960 60 Hz ব্যবহার > করতাম। ঝামেলা টা কি আমার কার্ড এনভিডিয়া জিফোর্স এমএক্স > > > -- > ubuntu-bd mailing list > ubuntu-bd@lists.ubuntu.com > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bd > -- Hafiz Imtiaz 0306005 EEE,BUET PH: 01915698207 -- ubuntu-bd mailing list ubuntu-bd@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bd

Very good article Shahriar. Thank you for writing it. I am curious about one thing, in older ubuntu cd versions, the gnome ppp was absent. I mean, it needed to be downloaded from the repo. As per your images of the network manager, i am guessing that it is pre installed in intrepid ibex for the mobile networking purposes. Am i right? Or did you had to install gnome ppp separately?

Re: [ Ubuntu-BD ] Thanks to All
The file system in linux is not like windows. Thus in linux you won't have separate drives like C:, D: etc. Windows recognises the file system and hard disk partitions by these drive letters. But linux access separate partitions of the hard disk by "mounting" them into several directories. There is no drive letters in linux. The complete hard disk is mounted under the root '/' and other directories. For instance, I have '/' partition of 6GB. '/home' partition of 7GB and '/usr' partition of 20GB In the '/usr' partition linux usually [by default] stores the installed programs [not sure, may be I am wrong]. That's why I gave it much more room than the others. I have created a separate partition for '/home' to backup my necessary files and system files. So that, I can use the Back Up programs to get my system folders [/ , /usr , /etc , /root] backed up in a separate partition. That's all I know. Hope I am not wrong..

[ Ubuntu-BD ] Suggestion about Linux learning guide/book
Hello all Could you please suggest me a book [that is available in Nilkhet or on the Internet] that will teach me Ubuntu/Linux starting from the basics to some advanced level? The problem is, I am using Ubuntu, doing many things using the GUI and terminal without actually knowing them in depth. For example, I have installed Matlab using command line, following a tutorial. From that I came to know that "sh" is needed for running "shell scripts". But I do not actually know what a shell script is. Similarly, I have installed java and created symbolic links for java plug-ins for Matlab and Firefox, but all i did was just to follow some tutorial on the net. I know I must write "sudo -i" to be the root, but i don't know what the "-i" stands for. But I want to Learn linux thoroughly, starting from basic file operations in both CLI and GUI to advanced and system integrated tasks. Can you please help me?

Yes vaia, I am sure that i have the linux version of miktex. I have collected it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/miktex/. It comes as a "tar.bz2" file, around 14MB.

Re: [ Ubuntu-BD ] Some questions
Thank you Nasim Vai. But TexLive is huge i guess. Because the CD that i have is around 650MB. I have downloaded MikTeX for linux. How can i use it with kile? That is, I want to install MikTeX first, then i want to install kile from Synaptic. Is that possible?

Re: [ Ubuntu-BD ] Some questions
Vaia My computer is more than 5 years old. It is in fact a Pentium 4 2.40 GHz with HT,1.5GB RAM and GeForce Fx5200 128 MB graphics card. I assumed that Ubuntu 8.04 would not have the driver for my graphics card. So i have downloaded it from nVidia web site before and installed on Ubuntu. There is no problem with Compiz Fusion enabling except the MATLAB problem. Even GoogleEarth works great on my Ubuntu. You told me to switch to Metacity/Emerald while running MATLAB. I guess these are desktop environments like GDM or something. As I am actually a newbie to linux, I don't know how to enable/install these. Could you please help me?

Re: [ Ubuntu-BD ] Some questions
Vaia I have tried to connect to the net using the "gnome-pppfixedforgutsy_0.3.24-1_i386.deb". but i have failed to do. Somehow it does not find my mobile. But if i type 'lsusb' in the terminal, it detects my mobile and shows 'Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0fce:d069 Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB' I don't know what is the problem. Anyway, this is not a big problem. I had a big problem today. When i enabled "Compiz Fusion", all the menus from my MATLAB window disappeared. After disabling "Compiz Fusion", they came back. I don't know why this happened. Does anyone have any idea about this?

[ Ubuntu-BD ] Some questions
Hello everybody, I am a new linux user. I have recently switched to Ubuntu 8.04 from Windows XP. I am facing some problems. Here they are: 1. I connect to the internet via SonyEricsson k550i using "wvdial". Every time i have to open the terminal and write "wvdial gpinternet&" to get connected to the internet and have to keep terminal open. Is there any way to connect to the internet bypassing terminal. Or, how can i keep my net connection intact after closing the terminal? 2. I have downloaded glest_3.1.2.tar.gz from www.sourceforge.net, but i cannot install it on my PC. I have seen "glest" available through Synaptic. But for that i have to download ~65MB [given the electricity condition and speed of internet in Bangladesh]. Could you please tell me the procedure of compiling/installing "glest" ? 3. I used MikTeX and WinEdt in Windows XP for preparing my reports,etc. I have found MikTeX for linux in Sourceforge but could not find anything replacing WinEdt. I have heard about "Kile" but i really don't know how to integrate it with MikTeX to compile TeX files and make/convert those to PDF. I also have a TexLive2007 CD. But still the problem is integrating it with a LaTeX IDE like WinEdt. Please help. 4. I have installed MATLAB R2007a UNIX on my Ubuntu 8.04. But i could not find Image Acquisition Toolbox. I have done a "Full Install" so i think the toolbox was not in the DVD image. Can i have it installed manually now? Please do not get bothered by my long mail. I am a novice linux user with a lot of questions in my mind about doing all the things i need to do in linux just like in windows.
