I check the sound menu, and there are all in "autodetect" mode. I tried to change to other driver bu fail.

Go to photobucket.com, make an account, take a screenshot (you know how to do that atleast right?), upload it on that website, take the URL of the pic the site gives you and paste that here.

As per your method it shows only the url in the thread. On clicking the url it opens the pic on that url, But I want to know how to paste the screenshot in the thread as some other member do. Like as praka123 in my thread
page 13.

1. I have applied your below method yestarday

other method I have to try. later I will post you the result.

2. Another problem arises in my ubuntu os as under:

From yesterday there is no sound in My Ubuntu OS. There is no Startup sound as well as no sound in songs/movies etc. while playing. But the sound system is fine in Win Xp OS.
Yesterday I tried to install 1."ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz" 2."Bluetoot device" 3."gutenprint-5.0.1-1lsb3.11486.rpm". The pakages were installed with some error msg. I think the sound problem arises after those installation.
But the question is now how I rectify the sound problem.
I have tried the second method, but Ubuntu Distro is not there.

u can choose debain distro in second method.

did u try the " apt-get method " ??

As per your method it shows only the url in the thread. On clicking the url it opens the pic on that url, But I want to know how to paste the screenshot in the thread as some other member do. Like as praka123 in my thread

.

I have also tried this link
*www.avasys.jp/english/linux_e/dl_ink.html
As per the above link documantation again I install the printer. Now in my system shows two epson printer. Now when I wish to print document the printer status show "printing", but the printer not printing.

But the printer prints fine in Windows OS. Therefore there should not be any problem with the printer.

 

[vish786]

first thing, why did u install the second driver when the first driver is properly detecting ur printer model....

second, u should hav uninstalled the earlier driver and then install the second one. According to me the printer driver is properly installed but u need to configure ur printer properly so try each setting and do trial and error method.

I think there is some problem in configuration. As per the installation manual of
*www.avasys.jp/english/linux_e/dl_ink.html. while i was installing the printer driver it shows some error in the terminal,

subha@ghosh:~$ ekpstm
PIPS Error: /etc/ekpdrc : The resource file is not exist.
PIPS Error: Default printer not found. Find the next printer...
PIPS Error: /etc/ekpdrc : The resource file is not exist.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Now how to solve this problem
I pasted here to screen shot after installing avyas printer driver. But I cannot print.

Today when I started Ubuntu, it starts fine. When I tried to open any application in ubuntu, its open and hangs up. No any respose come out. If try to close the application, after a few mnts. It displays msg "Aplication not resposding". If I click "force quit", the application quits alongwith other icons/top pannel/bottom pannel also vanishes from the desktop. Then I have no alternative to pressing "Ctrl+alt+backspace" to restart.
I could not understand what's the problem is. I seek help from the forum member.

I think these are not installed. If it is by default installed I dont know.
However I have installed Simdock and some desktop settings I changed to look like Windows. But after doimg that my system was fine. But from 22/08/2007 it is creating problem. Some times during booting where I have select user and PW, that screen do not appear instead a black screen appear with out any msg. Than I have no alternative except "Ctrl+Alt+del".
If I start session as "X client script" sometimes it works some times not.
Is there any way to repair the installation ?

 

[vish786]

do u have problem with simdock appearin black or whole monitor is blank. ?

 

[skghosh44]

No there is no such problem.
During login into ubuntu there is two user option available one is say "ABC" for accessing windows "My documents " , "my music" , Outlook express configuration etc ( I think so, what is actual I dont know) which was created by ubuntu during installation taking the administrator name of Windows and the other is say "XYZ" usual user. The problem with the usual user(XYZ) login desktop. When I login as "ABC", then there is no problem. It runs fine. Recently I created another user as "Digboi" as its run fine. Now tell me can I remove the user "XYZ" where I can perform all administrative task where required Password.

Deleting a user, In terminal

userdel <username>

for deleting user along with home directory.

userdel -r <username>

for making a User with Admin Priviledge, follow this.

In terminal/Console,

sudo visudo (if ur a normal sudo user)

or

Login an root, then
visudo

Now a file is opened, add this line below " root ALL=(ALL) ALL"

<username> ALL=(ALL) ALL

after adding should look something like this,if user name is Vish

............................
....................
# Defaults

Defaults !lecture,tty_tickets,!fqdn

# User privilege specification
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
Vish ALL=(ALL) ALL

after doing changes, CTRL+X, press y... now u hav admin priviledges.


for finding any help with commands,

man <command>

<command> --help

<command> --info

[skghosh44]

Thanks vish.
Now I am login in windows. Tomorrow I will try the same in Ubuntu and if any unwanted things happen I will report it here.
thanks again.

What is the diff between root user and admin user. I wish to create a admin user in terminal window, please tell me how to do it. because my gui System>administrator>user & group>add user did not work. whenever I click to add user the application hangs up and I have to froce quit the application.

 

[vish786]

follow what i said above.

 

[skghosh44]

follow what i said above.

As per your guide I add user sskk in visudo

root ALL=(ALL) ALL
sskk ALL=(ALL) ALL

Now when I login into ubuntu this user name dose not appear, hence I cannot login as admin previlige. If I create user as add user in trminal then it appears in login screen and I can login with this user with a minimal capability.

Date 03/09/2007
My problem got solved with the help of this.
But till I have to know about
System>Administrator>user & group>properties>advance> user id = 1000. Please tell me user ID = 1001 or 1000 which is most powerfull ?

u have to use sudo along with the command after doing entry in visudo.

sudo <any command>

as normal user/created user.

I have a problem with my Ubuntu installation. Whenever I try to install any software, i.e. when I run the config.sh script, I am told that gcc cannot make executables. What shall I do?
