Installing Debian GNU/Linux on an iBook

This post is both a query for information and written to introduce people to the information served on the 'Internet Archive', a web server originally at the Presidio in San Francisco, which offers wonderful objects for download. One of its lesser-known features is the 'WaybackMachine': archives of 'every' webpage on the internet after 1995! The following hyperlink illustrates its use.
http://web.archive.org/web/*sa_/http://people.debian.org/~branden/ibook/
Here it is used to receive instructions on how to install, on my 1993 iBook, combinations of MacOS9, MacOSX 10.2, and Debian GNU/Linux. GNU/Linux offers what MacOSX 10.2 doesn't, except for the easy conversion of DV tape camcorders to DVD (not suitable for a G3 Mac anyway).
'Mactracker' claims my iBook 800 MHz 32 VRAM laptop was made between April and October of 2003. (It also describes the hardware upgrades possible.) Because I use a different computer for burning DVDs, I hope to install Debian GNU/Linux only, which should offer a very fast and flexible OOUI computer.
I've also been given a 15" Aluminum G4 PowerBook (1.67 GHz) and use the appropriate web page for assistance. Here I need to install MacOS9 for my granddaughter's games, MacOSX 10.2 for my wife, and GNU/Linux for me.
Are there other sources people have used to help install GNU/Linux on an iBook? The GNOME desktop is very similar to Mac's Aqua: have people found Debian GNU/Linux a good choice for an iBook operating system? (The system should probably be installed in an ext3 partition, but Debian GNU/Linux reads & writes Apple's HFS+ natively.
Thanks in advance!

Debian GNU/Linux on T1700 Mini Tower

Hello.
I realize that Dell offers Windows 7 preloaded on the Dell T1700 Mini Tower, my question is if can I install Debian GNU/Linux on it? or if I can get the T1700 without operating System.
Thank you for your attention.

Only canonical paid the $$Microsoft fee so Ubuntu 12.04.4 64 bit and later will boot.

Debian Gnu/Linux install error

One of our customer does have AIR installed, but gets the following when she double-clicks on our .air file:
----------------------------8<-----------------------------
Failed to open file "YNAB3_Live_3.5.1.1.air".
Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/Adobe" (No such file or directory).
----------------------------8<-----------------------------
Can you offer any insight as to why the association with .air files might be messed up? Any way around it? Does this look familiar? Any advice would be greatly appreciated by me and of course her!
Many thanks,

Can I install Java Card Development Kit on Debian GNU\linux?

if that can be posible, how can do it?
Thanks. ;)

Please help,
I am new to Java.
I want to develop java programs.
I have Linux, (mandarake flavour) installed on my
computer.
I know that there are diffent linux flavors.
I have to the development kit download at:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/download.html
the page has downloads for
Windows (U.S. English only) N/A
Windows (all languages, including English)
Linux Red Hat shell script
Linux GNUZIP Tar shell script
SolarisTM SPARCTM 32-bit binary
Solaris Intel tar.Z N/A
Installation Instructions
Does this mean that I cannot use java development kit
for my Linux version?????
If I can I guess with the download it will tell me how
to do installation for Linux? (I know sometimes only
provide installation for Linux)The JDK has been rename J2SE (ie J2SE is the development kit).

Debian Gnu/Linux sarge + jmf + Linguistic tool for multimodal analysis

Hello at all,
I have got the following Problem (I am not a java-coder!):
I have got to run a tool which works with the jmf under a windows system without the problem I have got with it under the Linux system:
I will try to explain:
I have got a window - in the top-left corner there is a window with the video.
In the middle of the common window there is a timeline.
In the bottom half of the common window I can make some tieres. Than I can make sequences over the timeline frome the video (I am so sorry: my english is horrible an I hope you understand :( - maybe a link can help to understand:
http://www.und.nodak.edu/dept/linguistics/textbooks/UsingELAN.pdf
My very big problem:
When I try to make a seqence the video does not run synchron -- it stays static in the stopping modus, so I could not verify to make the right choice.
Could anybody help me?
Which kind of information about my OS do you need to help my?
chripe
null

Sorry for not checking this thread for a couple of days.
Thank you for your answer. Can you please give me some more information?
What exactly do you mean by "set LD_LIBRARY_PATH"?
(1) The message appears when the software is installed as root. before this step OS User oracle is not yet existing. Where / how am I supposed to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH before installation?
(2) After installation there is an $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle_env.sh which includes LD_LIBRARY_PATH and sets it (and other enivoment variables) for a shell session of OS user oracle. Will there be any influence to the background processes, esp. the one that crashed? Am I supposed to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH via
$HOME/.profile
using the line
. $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle_env.sh
What exactly do you mean by "try again"? Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH and hope the error does not occur again?
Since the error looks non-reproduceable, I can't see any method to check if the problem is solved or not.
Hope these questions make sense to you.
Thank you in advance.

Display of new messages in inbox list gets trimmed on GNU/Linux

Thanks to everyone who works on Mozilla Thunderbird. I am running TB 31.1.0 from the Mozilla Build on Debian GNU/Linux 7. I find that when new mail arrives, my inbox list does not scroll to show the messages. I have it sorted by increasing date, so the newest messages arrive at the bottom. The scrollbar changes and I can scroll it manually. I'd really like to see that new mail subject at a quick glance, however. I know I have a message because I get a few pixels of the first new one showing. I used to use TB on Windows all the time and I thought it featured a behavior that would autoscroll to show at least a few of the newest messages. My window is sized so about 14 rows are showing at one time and I have about 175 messages in my inbox. When I have read all mail, I usually leave the list scrolled so the last message is at the bottom. I'll attach a screenshot (I think I can do that in a reply). So my questions are: am I missing some way to enable the behavior I desire? If not, should I get involved as a developer and try to fix the code to behave the way I would like? Does TB behave on Windows the way I describe?

summer14, In case you haven't resolved this yet.
polzbert's solustion is excellent, assuming you have a backup drive using Time Machine. However, did you try rebuilding the inbox? If not, here's how:
Select the mail box that's giving you trouble in the left pane of Apple Mail. Then choose "rebuild" iunder the Mailbox Menu Item. This has resolved countless mailbox glitches for me in the past.

Installed Debian Linux over my entire hdd. how to reinstall os x?

I installed Debian linux for ppc over my entire system using a usb drive. OS x is gone. How do I get it back? My internal optical drive doesn't work. I put the Tiger install cd that came with the computer into my second computer macbook in target mode. The linux system could read the disc, but I can't figure out how to boot from it. Any ideas? This will likely take some Linux know-how. The linux guys at the forum weren't any help. I think they were a little bitter that I wanted to switch back.

Fixed it. I just removed the internal hard drive disk and restored my Superduper disk image back onto my drive.

Solaris 10 - impressions from a GNU/Linux user

Firstly, this isnt flame bait, honest!
Until 10, I hadnt seen Solaris since rev6, then, I was worn (then) down by trying to configure a dial up model hacking chap scripts. Anyhow, I thought I'd look at Solaris 10, seeing as it was 'free' to play with. What follows summarises my feelings after looking at it again.
Download and install went smoothly, even the accompanying freeware DVD was installed in its entiretly to add all that utility/application-candy that makes a platform usable, or more than usable.
OK, so the java desktop is actually pretty good but now what? There is a dearth of anything useful in the distribution, all but the cut down linux distros come with a wide range of applications and supporting tools, they 'just work', and cusomizing program access paths to include all the freeware bin folders etc etc is not necessary, unlike Solaris with its truly painful packaging structure.
Solaris seems to have changed a great deal since I last used it, but as I spend most days running Linux development and deployment systems I had some expectations of what I should (by now) be able to do with Solaris. After observing the lack of configuration files I stumbled accross the web 'tool' to do the configuration (there were no default desktop shortcuts, no menu links, nothing - even under CDE), I was beginning to get that '6' feeling again.
What do people do after an install, they configure the network and set the hostname up.
I personally found the network configuration a royal pain. Using any other linux distro (suse and its yast configurator, gnome or kde configuration tools etc) all make the experience painless.
For the gigabytes of downloads I kind of expected something that would be useful out of the box. Yes, I can go and download xyz from sun freeware one package at a time but COME ON! After using Debian based UBUNTU perhaps Im spoiled by the Synaptic package manager. I was honestly shocked, thinking there must be something I'm missing but once again I could not find a single reason to switch to Solaris for my use (development, or deployment).
Im sure there are those who would tout Solaris as rugged, scalable, secure etc but all of that is irrelavent to me and my usage. From my perspective the targetted user base for Solaris appears to be narrow.
I can appreciate the licencing issues involved and that may indeed be the reason why many additional tools arent provided. In any event, I cant think of any reason to keep Solaris 10 installed, I can do everything I need with Linux with less effort thanks to the range of GNU/open source apps readily available.
If it works for you thats great, Im sure there will be plenty of points and my lack of time spent (a) reading (b) configuring (c) dowloading and compiling, but to be honest, I havent got the time!

compiing packages one at a time is possible but is
prone to non-trivial issues over symbols etc etc.
Never mind it takes time to find the source package
from website x, install the package, compile the
package, fixup your paths ready for running, try and
figure out if the app needs an icon in the menus -
and figure out how to do that too.Or, as you mentioned you could use Sunfreeware or the Companion CD with the caveat that you've already mentioned.
Contrast this method with the APT/Synaptic package
manager a) search by keyword for app (eg firewall)
from multiple repositories with thousands of
applications etc, select and hit go, it resolves its
own dependencies, it downloads, it installs, it just
runs, its integrated immediately with no further
effort. Blinding!Must be nice!
There are some apps that actually do this on Solaris. If they use the Midnight Commander shell on the download page I've had things like version 2 of Nessus configure, compile and install itself automatically.
These are few and far between though.
What I expected to do with Solaris is to be able to
configure it quickly and painlessly (nope), to be
able to install categories of apps I know I want but
dont immediately know where they are stored, maybe
sunfreeware.com maybe not (nope, no package manager
or anything similar), to be able to not care about 'I
need this library or that library' to resolve
dependencies and just install it! (nope). As I said,
I guess Im spoilled by APT/Synaptic, its a killer app
for the platform, making it more than useful.For Solaris I'm not aware of anything close to what you're describing.
compilers, apache, tomcat, evolution for M$Exchange
email intergration, eclipse even, never mind media
players & codecs. All without so much as a website
trawl/comipile/fixup cycle.I've heard that the Companion CD along with the Java Desktop Environment should get you most of what is listed above, but that uses the Companion CD and the caveat.
GNU/Linux experience. I asked myself the question,
how much effort would I have to put in to get running
at least a good portion of what I currently have? The
answer that led to my post was too much.From what you're describing it isn't that it couldn't be done, the issue is that it could be done, but going forward with Solaris would be more work than what you're currently doing, not a bad assumption.

Putting Linux on PowerPC iBook G4

Hi
I was wondering how you could put a flavour of Linux on my iBook G4. What would be the best type to use and how could I put it on? I want to use it for network work and some programming.
Thanks

There are a few different Linux versions which may work on some
architectures of Macintosh computer. Before you do anything, be
sure you can make and have a bootable full system clone on an
externally supported (FireWire 400) hard disk drive. A self-powered
one with AC power supply is best, then it is independent of the Mac.
Not all externally enclosed FW HDD units are capable of booting
an OS X system or full clone. You can get clone utilities by the names
of Carbon Copy Cloner, or another favorite, SuperDuper. Downloads.
Some people have reported issues and damages to their Mac OSX
installation when they've tried installing a Linux version on there, too;
so be ready ahead of time and also know when to try some other
Linux version if you find one that does not work with your computer.
Names like YellowDog, Debian, Mandrake, Gentoo, Ubuntu, & others.
Some of the names and versions I've found in a casual search may
have changed somewhat. If you find information from some internet
older discussions at non-Apple forums about these non-Apple OSs,
be aware they may not be able to run adequately in your iBook G4.
A most general search will find a cross-section of some stuff; here's
one where I keyed some words into the google search engine...
' Linux ubuntu gentoo for Mac G4 ' - a google search:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Linuxubuntu+gentoo+for+Mac+G4&btnG=GoogleSearch&aq=f&oq=
If the computer has a large enough hard disk drive in it, a partition
scheme may be employed to facilitate keeping OS X on one part
and some other experimental system on another. This may allow
you to dual-boot between a known stable Mac OSX system and
some questionable & experimental beta-like effort you find online.
There are probably few if any outright advantages in a Linux OS
based system not already superseded by the great and powerful
Mac OS X. If you like tweaking and keyboarding around, there is
Terminal and other accesses into the underpinnings of BSD/Unix
within the Mac. You can learn quite a bit about many similar OSs
by getting into Mac OS X at a non-graphical level more often.
Some of the Linux versions available are download disk images
you'd burn to a CD for later installation; other ones will ship a
DVD or CDs, these sometimes have a fee for the discs, etc.
If you look into some of the Linux for Mac (be sure they work
on PPC architecture) sites, some of them have forums, too.
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

MacBook Pro 8,1 – Intel Core i5 – 2.23 GHz (early 2011) New with OSX 10.6 – current on all updates.
I successfully installed rEFit. I used Boot Camp to install Win 7. All was great.
Then installed debian 6. Somehow after the debian install and restart (I know this sounds crazy) but I am now reduced to Win 7 only. rEFit is not present when rebooting nor is OSX or debian. Further, I am unable to force the install DVD to launch when rebooting, by holding C, D or F8. The Option key brings me to the grey screen with a padlock. I have attempted the root and local pw- no go. Restart holding D takes me to the windows boot manager. I have attempted several options within the Advanced Options; including – Repair Your computer, safe mode and “last known good config,” All of which did nothing.
I can see all my OSX files within win7. I tried to install the OSX within windows. Ya right, that did nothing..
I only desire to get back to OSX...
What are my options??

Yes, you royally hosed up your machine.
You should first try to get your files off, any way you can to a external drive.
Your going to need to hold c and boot from the disk that came with your computer and a couple of screens in under the menu is a option for Disk Utility.
Select your drive and Erase with Security Option Zero, format the drive HFS+ Journaled and when that's finished (about a hour or so) then quit and install OS X from the installer.
I hope this works, but I suspect it won't. Others have hosed their machines trying to use a Linux disk without proper partition formatting too.
Another option might be to use another Mac to c boot off the Snow Leopard disk and install OS X onto a external drive, take that to the problem Mac and try holding option and booting off of it to erase your internal drive.
You could replace the drive.

Is this holding option while booting?
There was someone else around here who hosed their Mac with a Linux disk too. Try to find it.

as you see all checks passed OK, but the whole install failed. What could be wrong? And what is XML parser init: error 54?

Finding the multiple JRE installed path in Linux OS

for my requirement on finding the JRE installaiton folder on windows and Linux machines , I can able to get it in windows but I am facing problem in getting the jre installed path from Linux machine. I am using Debian etch OS. Can anyone help me to find the installed path of JRE in Linux machine using a Java program. I need to find the multuiple JRE installed paths, i.e. my java program should find all the JRE installed paths and versions of the same.
Thanks in advance.

As per the terminal prompt its ok...but i need the java concept to retrieve the versions and installed paths of the all JRE.
e.g;For current JRE we can get by,
System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.version"));
System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.home"));
Output:
1.5.0_10
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.10/jre
If i installed 1.3 and 1.4 also.,
How can i get installed paths and versions for all three 1.3,1.4 and 1.5 JRE's
