[Solved] How to install/configure GDM?

I'm trying to install and configure GDM without gnome according to these directions:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GDM
Unfortunately, those directions do not resemble my system.  Anyway, configuring the user to access X fails as follows:
[root@varch arch]# xhost +SI:localuser:gdm
localuser:gdm being added to access control list
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 109(X_ChangeHosts)
Value in failed requet: 0xd
Serial number of failed request: 7
Current serial number in output stream: 9
and the paths in the following command do not exists:
# cp -t /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/ /usr/share/applications/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop /usr/share/applications/gconf-editor.desktop
My system does not have ../gdm/autostart.  It has a ../gdm/auto-login.....
Can someone point me the right direction that I need to go?   I have X installed and it works.  I've tried installing xdm, but was unable to get it to work so now I'm trying gdm.

May I ask why you want to install GDM, instead of a much lighter DM like lightdm or SLiM (or even why you want a DM at all) ?
I just installed GDM using the instructions in the wiki (to test the instructions), and it all worked as written for me. I installed the DM, then changed /etc/inittab as directed, and rebooted. GDM started and let me log in. /usr/share/gdm/autostart is right where it should be.
Please post the output of these commands:
ls /usr/share/gdm
gdm --version
And I have to ask, when was the last time you did a full system upgrade (pacman -Syu)?

This should be your first clue that something is very wrong... How did you install GDM?

    How to install & configure Oracle9i

    Hi,
    The Oracle installation mainly depends on which OS are u using.
    1.If u are using as a windows platform.... it is easy ..just follow the GUI mode of installation from the 3 disks ..u can download the database from www.otn.oracle.com site.
    2.If u are installing on the Unix platform ..then it is little bit tricky and also depends on the which flavour of unix u are using.
    For unix installtion ..
    1.u have to set the kernel parameters first and then reboot the system.
    2.creating the groups dba and oracle .. granting the group privs
    3.create the profile file for setting the environ variable...
    4.Then follow the GUI mode of installtion for the rest..
    about the patches ... u need to be specific about the type of unix flavour ur using and the version.

  • [SOLVED] How to install and run (on debian) a separate, downlevel version of firefox for the F5/firepass VPN?

    (Note: my problem is similar to [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/931534?e=es&as=aaq another current problem] except that
    * OP is running windows (I'm running a debian linux)
    * OP is asking a more general question (how to fix?) while I'm asking for details on a proposed fix)
    I'm currently running
    $ lsb_release -ds
    Linux Mint Debian Edition
    $ cat /etc/debian_version
    wheezy/sid
    $ uname -rv
    3.2.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Sun Mar 4 22:48:17 UTC 2012
    $ iceweasel --version
    Mozilla Iceweasel 13.0.1
    I'd like to continue running an uplevel iceweasel ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Corporation_software_rebranded_by_the_Debian_project which is firefox]) but apparently need to run a downlevel version in order to run a particular vendor-supplied plugin. How best to do that (i.e., with minimal performance degradation, and without affecting my package management)? Or is there another way to solve the general problem (running the F5 Network Access Plugin)? Why I ask:
    My employer is giving me remote access via a SecurID token and the F5 Network Access Plugin (F5NAP). The latter is in fact a browser plugin, which seems to me an odd way to implement a VPN, but it's the only offered option. Unfortunately,
    * the only browsers supported for linux are Firefox 3 and Firefox 8 (per [http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_apm/manuals/product/apm_compatibility_matrix_10_2_1.html this]--scroll to "Linux Operating Systems")
    * my primary laptop runs LMDE (see above) with Iceweasel 13 (from the mozilla.debian.net repository), which I want to keep. (It's the uplevel browser, dammit !-)
    So I first tried to install the F5NAP on my iceweasel, hoping it was sufficiently like the listed versions. I browsed to my employer's site, logged in using the token, and followed the link to install the plugin. Unfortunately, that failed: the xpi began running, but then quit with the message
    > F5 Network Access Plugin could not be installed because it is not compatible with Iceweasel 13.0.1
    Hoping for a simple workaround, I told the often-useful User Agent Switcher plugin to emulate Firefox 8, but no fix. Hence it seems like I will hafta
    * install Firefox 3 or Firefox 8
    * run that downlevel browser whenever I want remote access
    * run the uplevel browser for everything else
    This definitely seems like a kludge, so I am open to alternatives. Meanwhile I'm wondering:
    # Which of the F5-supported downlevel browsers (Firefox 3 or Firefox 8) has the smaller memory footprint?
    # How to install the downlevel browser so that it does not interfere with my uplevel browser's configuration, operation, and updating via debian package management?
    # How to run the downlevel browser so that its operation does not interfere with my uplevel browser? I know firefox typically wants to run singleton.

    @[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/user/160087 verdi]: thanks for your helpful suggestions. The "fix" (actually a kludge, but I gotta work with what F5 and my employer give me) was:
    # Install/run latest Firefox 3 (despite there being [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/932269 no 64-bit version for linux]) using [https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BzDAFHgIxRzKbmJDUGZqTzhfbDg this bash scriptlet].
    # Create a [https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BzDAFHgIxRzKQjRyQndqUTJpRXM run script] to start firefox so that one can
    #* choose the appropriate profile (I was unable to set it from the script without startup error)
    #* run multiple instances (I don't want 3.x firefox touching my uplevel profile)
    # Run Firefox 3.x with the runner, then point it to my employer's site to install the [http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_apm/manuals/product/apm_compatibility_matrix_10_2_1.html F5 Network Access Plugin] (restarting firefox as required).
    The gnome-terminal tab from which I invoke the runner spews a bazillion "wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64" errors, but the plugin runs, and I can SSH normally (though more slowly) to servers on the VLAN from another terminal tab.

    Hi. My screen res is very small, and most menus for me are larger than the screen, so most things I have to configure manually. It gets irritating. How do you install a GDM theme manually?

  • How to Install & Configure Web Dispatcher

    Hi techies,
    How to install and configure SAP Webdisptacher in an existing BI System.
    What are the parameters need to be set after installation like ports, memory , profile parameters etc., for webdispatcher.
    I am new to this concept
    Thx in advance.
    Haroon Khavi.

    Hi,
    The webdisp does not need the SID of the system it is connecting to. The only parameter it needs is a "Unique Instance Number for SAP Web Dispatcher (SAPSYSTEM)".
    You can check this with the following command:-
    sapwebdisp -bootstrap
    If you are installing the webdisp on a server that already has a SAP instance then you have to enter a unique number (not the SAP instance number). You can used any value from 0-99.
    This parameter is used for shared memory allocation so should not be the same as the SAP instance or any other webdisp installed on the same server. Of course if there is only the webdisp on the server than any value from 0-99 can be used.
    Hope this helps

    to my home/rich/Downloads folder. But how do I install it?
    Last edited by dameunmate (2010-07-16 08:41:28)

    Sorry about that, I had read a lot of the wiki but I had no idea how to install a package from the AUR. The console was very upset when I tried to install mingetty as the root user, so to install it as another user changing the permissions on each and every installation file took a long time. However I got there in the end. Thanks for your help.
    For anyone who like myself is running Arch Linux and Openbox, in the end I didn't need mingetty to boot straight into X Openbox, so I've now uninstalled it. I only needed to folow the instructions in the Arch Wiki at http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Start_X_at_boot (second section using etc/inittab).
    Here's my etc/inittab:
    # /etc/inittab
    # Runlevels:
    # 0 Halt
    # 1(S) Single-user
    # 2 Not used
    # 3 Multi-user
    # 4 Not used
    # 5 X11
    # 6 Reboot
    ## Only one of the following two lines can be uncommented!
    # Boot to console
    #id:3:initdefault:
    # Boot to X11
    id:5:initdefault:
    rc::sysinit:/etc/rc.sysinit

    # End of file
    ...the key is in the x:5:once:/bin/su YOUR_USERNAME_HERE -l -c "/bin/bash --login -c /usr/bin/startx >/dev/null 2>&1"
    So now I just press the power button and end up in Openbox in about 50 seconds (for some reason my motherboard takes 30 seconds to get to the Grub menu, then as Arch boots it takes a good 10 seconds to get a wireless connection up). Press the power button again and it automatically shuts down! (see http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Shu … wer_Button - I don't know if this closes X properly but anyway it works)

  • [SOLVED] How to install nvidia 285.05.09-3 drivers

    Hi All,
    Currently I have installed xf86-video-nouveau 0.0.16_git20110829-1 drivers in my Arch Linux but I would like to install nvidia 285.05.09-3 in kernel 3.1.1-1-ARCH.
    Each time I have tried to install nvidia drivers I have had a lot of problems: the worst is that once installed I reboot system and X does not start, screen goes black, etc so I am afraid to install it because then I have a lot of problems to goes back nouveau and to get X starts again.
    So could anyone say me step by step how to install it with success and that once I reboot my system you ensure me X starts?
    And a step by step guide in case X does not starts and I need to come back nouveau again and start X normaly without problems.

    Can you post some logs when the nvidia drivers are failing? What card do you have?
    Hi Karol,
    I have just installed nvidia 285 from repos taking into account the link you provided. I follow the steps mentioned in the script to change from nouveau to nvidia and it went Ok. Now I have installed nvidia drivers from repos and at boot-up, X starts correctly (SOLVED).
    I think when I installed nvidia in the past one thing was missed: (I did not do this)
    /usr/bin/sudo /sbin/mkinitcpio -p linux
    ....Maybe that was the problem.
    My graphic card is Nvidia Go7600.

    Need help ASAP.
    thanks,
    Ram

    Hi,
    First of all have you installed Shared Services as you will need that as that foundation of the installation.
    You will also need to install other components such as essbase if you intend to use it with web analysis.
    If you have done that, then you will first need a repository to hold Reporting and Analysis information.
    Afte start up the configuration utility and select the Reporting & analysis elements and go through the steps entering
    details such as shared services connection, repository information.
    It should install the components as a service.
    You should really read the installation document :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/hs_windows_install.pdf

  • Mupen64Plus 2.0 hg in AUR; HOW TO install & configure controllers

    With version 2.0 Mupen64Plus has undergone large changes "under the hood". Mupen64Plus is now modular, and as such the standard plugins has been split into several different packages/repositories. At the moment there exists the following modules:
    * mupen64plus-core
          Core module of the Mupen64Plus project
    * mupen64plus-ui-console
          Console (command-line) front-end user interface for Mupen64Plus v2.0 project
    * mupen64plus-audio-sdl
          Audio plugin for the Mupen64Plus v2.0 project, using SDL. This plugin is based on the original jttl_audio plugin in Mupen64.
    * mupen64plus-input-sdl
          Input plugin for Mupen64Plus v2.0 project using SDL. This is derived from the original Mupen64 blight_input plugin.
    * mupen64plus-rsp-hle
          RSP processor plugin for the Mupen64Plus v2.0 project. This plugin is based on the Mupen64 HLE RSP plugin v0.2 with Azimers code by Hacktarux
    * mupen64plus-video-rice
          Video plugin for the Mupen64Plus v2.0 project, using OpenGL. This plugin is based on the RiceVideoLinux plugin from earlier versions of Mupen64Plus.
    Note however, that mupen64plus-core (or mupen64plus-core-hg on AUR) is just the core, and does not include a frontend. The Qt and GTK frontends have been scrapped, though, and the only existing frontend so far is mupen64plus-ui-console, which is a CLI frontend. You launch a game with mupen64plus-cli, see mupen64plus-cli --help for more information. As a sidenote, I believe that the Mupen64Plus team would appreciate if someone helped with creating a GTK frontend, since I believe the head developer(s) will probably be focusing on the Qt frontend if any.
    The Rice Video plugin in Mupen64Plus 2.0 fixes a problem that at least I and another person had with xf86-video-ati and the old Rice, which made us unable to play in fullscreen.
    Installing
    To get Mupen64Plus 2.0 working, you will need to install all six modules. They are all part of the mupen64plus-hg group, but unfortunately neither yaourt nor the AUR web interface supports groups as far as I know, so you will have to install each module separately. With yaourt:
    yaourt -S mupen64plus-core-hg mupen64plus-ui-console-hg mupen64plus-audio-sdl-hg mupen64plus-input-sdl-hg mupen64plus-rsp-hle-hg mupen64plus-video-rice-hg
    The only way I can think of to make it easier to install, would be if I created an empty PKGBUILD that simply depended on all the modules, but I find this to not be a technically elegant solution.
    Configuring controllers
    With Mupen64Plus 2.0, a feature has been added to auto-detect and auto-configure USB controllers, but at the time of writing only a handful of controllers are supported:
    * Logitech Dual Action gamepad
    * Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2
    * Microsoft X-Box 360 pad
    * N64 controller
    * SAITEK P880
    * Mega World USB Game Controllers
    You know your controller isn't supported if you get the following messages when running mupen64plus-cli:
    Input: N64 Controller #1: Disabled, no configuration data for 'YOUR CONTROLLER NAME HERE'
    Input Warning: No SDL joysticks found
    Input: Mupen64Plus SDL Input Plugin version 2.0.0 initialized.
    If it is supported, you will get something like:
    Input: N64 Controller #1: Enabled, using auto-configuration for joystick 'YOUR CONTROLLER NAME HERE'
    Input: 1 SDL joysticks found, 1 plugged in and usable in the emulator
    Input: Mupen64Plus SDL Input Plugin version 2.0.0 initialized.
    Now, if your controller isn't supported, there are two things you can do, and I strongly recommend that you do the first, but you will probably want to do both unless you're patient (if your controller works, but you want to configure it, skip to step two):
    Step 1:
    Follow the intructions on http://www.emutalk.net/showthread.php?t=49731. If you have the old config file, but no longer have Mupen64Plus 1.5 installed and therefore cannot follow step 8 in the post, the controller name shown in
    Input: N64 Controller #1: Disabled, no configuration data for 'YOUR CONTROLLER NAME HERE'
    will work too. This will allow the Mupen64Plus team to include your controller for auto-detection.
    Step 2:
    Now you will probably want to configure the controller, especially if it wasn't supported already. You will need to edit the config file ~/.config/mupen64plus/mupen64plus.cfg, since no GUI frontend exists yet. Since revision 55 of mupen64plus-core, Mupen64Plus will create the config file if none exists when launching a game (previously you had to run mupen64plus-cli with the flag --saveoptions to create the config file). Mupen64Plus does not need a config file to run, but if you wish to tweak the settings you will need it.
    Now, the section you will be interested in is [Input-SDL-Control1] (and possibly the other controller sections). If your controller is supported already, you will see some default settings and it will be quite easy to edit them. Otherwise the sections will be completely empty. Here follows my [Input-SDL-Control1], which you can copy and change to fit your needs. If you have your blight_input.conf you can use it as a reference to make it easier. For a list of options, see http://www.emuwiki.com/index.php?title= … #Input-SDL.
    [Input-SDL-Control1]
    # Specifies whether this controller is 'plugged in' to the simulated N64
    plugged = True
    # Specifies which type of expansion pak is in the controller: 1=None, 2=Mem pak, 5=Rumble pak
    plugin = 1
    # If True, then mouse buttons may be used with this controller
    mouse = False
    # Specifies which joystick is bound to this controller: -1=None, 0 or more= SDL Joystick number
    device = 0
    # The minimum absolute value of the SDL analog joystick axis to move the N64 controller axis value from 0. For X, Y axes.
    AnalogDeadzone = "4096,4096"
    # An absolute value of the SDL joystick axis >= AnalogPeak will saturate the N64 controller axis value (at 80). For X, Y axes. For each axis, this must be greater than the corresponding AnalogDeadzone value
    AnalogPeak = "32768,32768"
    # Digital button configuration mappings
    DPad R = "hat(0 Right ) "
    DPad L = "hat(0 Left ) "
    DPad D = "hat(0 Down ) "
    DPad U = "hat(0 Up ) "
    Start = "button(9) "
    Z Trig = "button(7) "
    B Button = "button(0) "
    A Button = "button(2) "
    C Button R = "axis(3+) "
    C Button L = "axis(3-) "
    C Button D = "axis(2+) "
    C Button U = "axis(2-) "
    R Trig = "button(6) "
    L Trig = "button(4) "
    Mempak switch = ""
    Rumblepak switch = ""
    # Analog axis configuration mappings
    X Axis = "axis(0-,0+) "
    Y Axis = "axis(1-,1+) "
    Note:
    At the time of writing there is a bug in the parser which requires the extra space after the direction in the hat event, for example "hat(0 Up )". Otherwise it will read the direction as (in this case) "Up)" which is invalid and will be ignored. The trailing space after the ending parantheses is not required, and is merely a side effect of how the program that generates the config file works.
    Note that you can combine options:
    A Button = "button(2) key(38) mouse(1)"
    This will map both button 2 on the controller, key 38 on the keyboard and the left mouse button to the A button in Mupen64Plus.
    If anyone encounters any other problems, feel free to ask.

    This is not Ubuntu forum. You shouldn't EVER post such howto on the forum, we have a wiki for that reason. That thing you've written should go the wiki and then post a topic at wiki discussions and ask for opinion.
    Please, don't do that again, just contribute to the wiki.
    Yes, I'm quite aware that the wiki exists. The reason I'm writing it here is that the GUI frontends will probably come quite soon, and overall this is an early version. I don't see a reason to contribute this to the wiki when it will probably be unneeded and out-of-date relatively soon.
