Tethering on Ubuntu 8.04

I'm trying to tether my iPhone with Ubuntu 8.04 via Bluetooth. How do I resolve this error -- "Couldn't display "obex://[XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX]/". Error host is down. Please select another browser and try again. ??

Success!
I used this guide here - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/iphone-tethering-on-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html.
I enabled the "Network" service in Blueman, selected my iPhone PAN Network Access Profile, enabled DHCP, disconnected from my WiFi access point and VOILA!!! I'm online!!
The Linux forums are great!! Glad to be part of the revolution!!!

    Lenovo Yoga 2 13, Kali Linux 1.0.7, Ubuntu 14.04, Windows 8.1 install, config, and wifi fix.
    I wanted to share an experience with everyone I hope will help others avoid what I have gone through the past 3 days. I bought a Yoga 11s that I loved but had some issues with the wireless, Lenovo being awesome replaced it with a Yoga 2 13. I love this laptop but ran into some issues with Linux install/wireless, which I wanted to show how to resolve in one place. Hopefully this will help someone else get through this quicker
    I am going to try and write this for someone with little Linux experience, if I miss the mark please let me know and I will clarify the best I can.
    For work I need Windows 8.1 and Kali Linux, while for home I prefer Ubuntu.
    My Yoga 2 13:
    I5 1.6 ghz
    8 GB ram
    256 GB SSD
    ORANGE!
    My requirements: 
    I need Windows
    I need Kali Linux (livecd, even with persistent mode was not an option as it would not save the wireless fix or system updates) – I would also like this on a USB drive and not the internal SSD
    I would like Ubuntu
    Needed to do this:
    1. 2 USB thumb drives (at least 8gb in size each) I used 2 Leef Supra 32GB drives. They are my favorite right now and are only about $27 at amazon.
    2. Phone that can USB Tether or a USB Ethernet card (External USB wireless will show as "Hardware Locked"). Again you can pick one up for sub $10 if you need the USB Ethernet route. I used my Galaxy S5, you will need to download 200-300 mb of items through this so make sure you have the data if you go that route.
    3. You may be able to get a USB wifi card to work if you do the following after boot. This only worked once for me.
                    a.Type ‘sudo rmmod iwlmvm’
    b.Type ‘sudo rmmod iwlwifi’
    4. ISOs of Ubuntu and Kali Linux (I used Ubuntu 14.04 and Kali Linux 1.0.7)
    5. Software to unzip the ISOs. I recommend 7-ZIP and will be referencing this in this guide.
    6. I will include the EFI boot files and the WiFi fix files if I can attach. Otherwise I will provide a link to them.
       Link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/puxnnoft3gn2b6l/WiFiFix.zip
    Recommended (these are just in case you corrupt something making your system not see any OS
    1.  I would call Lenovo beforehand and get a set of recover disks (this will take 2-3 days)
    2. In the meantime a USB Windows 8.1 or 8 ISO (the repair feature may save you)
    *Note: At many points in this guide I detail steps and commands. Please double check that you understand the step before proceeding. There are multiple points where a mistyped command or clicking the wrong option will cause your entire system to fail and you will need to reformat the entire drive and start over. This also will make One Touch recovery not work. Proceed with caution.*
    I did not need to disable ‘secure boot’ to do this, but keep in mind that you may need to.
    Steps:
    First let’s go through the installs, and then we will go through grub config and wireless fix
    1. In Windows scroll to computer and right click, select manage.
    2. Go to “Disk Management”
    3. Select the main HDD (notice Lenovo puts a stupid number of partitions on here)
    a. I deleted the D: drive on here, if you do this make sure to copy the drives over to your main C: drive. You will want to run each of the installers and repair the drivers after.
    4. I used the space from the D: drive and pulled a little more creating a 50 GB partition for Ubuntu and my swap file
    a. You can also add more space by right clicking your C drive and selecting shrink
    b. Do not format the partitioned data as this will make identifying it later much easier.
    5. Open a command line
                    a. Swipe from the right of the screen and select search
                    b. Type ‘cmd’
                    c. right click and select ‘run as admin’
    6. For Ubuntu: Type ‘diskpart’ into the command line
                    a. type ‘list disk’
    i. You should see 2-3 disks depending on if you have one or both usb drives in the laptop at the time. I would suggest only doing 1 at a time so you don’t lose track.
                    b. type ‘select disk $’ (Replace the $ with the number of the drive)
    c. ***** Before proceeding make sure you have the correct drive selected or you can ruin your Windows install and Lenovo one touch recovery will not fix it since we have changed the partitions *****
    d. type ‘clean’
    e. type ‘create partition primary’
    f. type ‘active’
    g. type ‘format  fs=fat32 quick’
    h. type ‘assign’
    i. type ‘exit’
    6. For Kali Linux: Type ‘diskpart’ into the command line
                    a. type ‘list disk’
    i. You should see 2-3 disks depending on if you have one or both usb drives in the laptop at the time. I would suggest only doing 1 at a time so you don’t lose track.
                    b. type ‘select disk $’ (Replace the $ with the number of the drive)
    c. ***** Before proceeding make sure you have the correct drive selected or you can ruin your Windows install and Lenovo one touch recovery will not fix it since we have changed the partitions *****
    d. type ‘clean’
    e. type ‘create partition primary size= 3272
    f. type ‘active’
    g. type ‘format  fs=fat32 quick’
    h. type ‘assign’
    i. type ‘exit’
    j. By doing this we can maintain a portion of this drive as the install CD and still have linux install/ liveCD if we need to run it on another machine.
    7. At this point the drive is ready to have the contents of the ISO copied over.
    8. Right click the ISO and select 7-zip then ‘zip to /’ This should unzip the ISO to the location of the ISO into a folder named exactly the same as the ISO.
    9. Once this is done for Ubuntu ISO it is done
    10. Kali requires a little bit more to be ready
                    a. Kali will need some files added for EFI boot. --$--
                                   i. Thanks to: https://forums.kali.org/showthread.php?271-How-to-EFI-install-Kali-Linux
                                   ii. EFI files are located within the wifi fix folder https://www.dropbox.com/s/puxnnoft3gn2b6l/WiFiFix.zip
    11. Now let’s start with Ubuntu
    Ubuntu install
    1.     Place USB drive into the laptop and press the “Lenovo boot” button next to the power button
    2.     Select ‘Boot Menu’
    3.     Select ‘EFI USB Device (Name of drive)’ Mine stated Leef Supra
    4.     Select ‘install Ubuntu’
    5.     Go through the Ubuntu install until you get to select the install drive
    6.     Once you get to the install portion it will ask you to select from one of 4 options. Select ‘Manually select partition’
    7.     Select the “Free Space” where we opened up some of the drive
    8.     You will need to create 2 partitions, I usually create the swap partition at the end of the drive
    a.     First I create the swap
                                              i.    Set at the end of the drive
                                             ii.    Set size to 1024 mb
                                            iii.    Set type to ‘swap’
    b.     Second create the ext 4 partition
                                              i.    Set to beginning of drive
                                             ii.    Set to remainder of the space
                                            iii.    Set type to ext4
                                            iv.    Set mount point to /
    9.     Finish the install and boot into Ubuntu
    10.   You will notice that your wireless is ‘disabled by hardware’ This is fine for the time being and we will worry about this after the kali install. If we fix it now for some reason after installing kali we get the error again and would just need to fix it again.
    Kali Linux install
    1.     Place USB drive into the laptop and press the “Lenovo boot” button next to the power button
    2.     Select ‘Boot Menu’
    3.     Select ‘EFI USB Device (Name of drive)’ Mine stated Leef Supra
    4.     From the grub menu select ‘install kali linux’ both graphical and text work. I much prefer text install
    5.     You will get a few errors through the install but that is fine
    6.     The first we see is about network hardware and ‘load missing firmware from removable media?’ – Select ‘no’
    7.     Then select no ethernet card
    8.     It will have you name your machine then it will ask you for the root password
    a.     If you want to just use root *not recommended* place the password here
    b.     If you wish to use a non-root account then leave these blank and it will ask you for a name, username, and password of the new machine *Very Recommended* - this will also add this user to the sudoers file
    9.     It will then ask you to ‘partition disks’
    10.   Select manual
    11.   Now here is where it can get a little confusing so read twice click once
    12.   Select the USB drive from this list
    13.   Mine shows up under (sdb) – Leef Supra
    a.     It could be sdc, sdd, sde, etc… depending on how many drives you have plugged in.
    14.   You should see one primary drive that is 3gb or so that is formatted as FAT32. – DO NOT TOUCH THIS PARTITION!
    15.   You should see the remainder of this drive as ‘FREE SPACE’ select that
    16.   Create a partition at the end at size 1024mb and swap
    17.   Then create another one for the remainder of the drive and set it to ext4 with mountpoint of /
    18.   Continue through the install after you should see an error warning you that ‘you may not be able to boot’ that is fine, select continue
    19.   Then select from the menu of all the options ‘continue without bootloader’
    20.   It should finish up then reboot on its own.

    First setup/boot/fix grub
    1.     You should  be able to boot up into GRUB2 menu now.
    2.     You may not see kali linux in this menu (make sure you have your towel and don’t panic!)
    3.     Boot into Ubuntu
    4.     Once you log in you should see that you still cannot use wireless due to being locked by hardware
    5.     This is expected
    6.     Let’s fix grub then we will come back to fixing wireless
    7.     Plug in your device to connect to the internet (USB Tethering or USB Ethernet)
    8.     Once you verify that you now have an internet connection run the following from terminal
    a.     ‘sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer’
    b.     ‘sudo apt-get update’
    c.     ‘sudo apt-get install grub-customizer’
    9.     You can also edit the grub.cfg manually if you know what you are doing… I did not
    10.   Open grub  customizer
    11.   It should auto populate and you should see ‘debian (kali linux)’ somewhere in the list
    12.   It should be mounted to /dev/sdb2 or /dev/sdc2 depending on how many devices you have
    13.   At this point go ahead and save
    14.   Reboot and test that you can get into each OS
    15.   This is where my inexperience got me. I spent 2 of my days so I am including this error: If when you boot into Kali you get an error somewhere that says ‘/bin/sh: can’t access tty: job control turned off’ look above it for an error that looks similar to ‘ALERT! /dev/sdc2 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!!’
    a.     That error is due to the mount point being incorrect in grub, reboot and from within grub highlight the kali boot. Press ‘e’ then towards the bottom you should see ‘root=/dev/sdc2’ change this to ‘root=/dev/sdb2’ again the number doesn’t matter just make sure it stays the same.
    b.     Press F10
    c.     If this boots fine then you will need to go back and fix the grub.cfg or load into Ubuntu and open grub customizer again, it should fix this
    16.   Now you have 3 working OS on the machine with one being on a USB! Congrats!
    17.   You can remove the USB with no worry of screwing up your install, but you will not be able to boot into Kali Linux until you replace it. I would suggest only removing it and replacing it while the machine is powered off, but that’s just me.
    Fix Wireless
    Now is the time to do what probably ¾ of you came here for. FIX THE DANG WIRELESS. This is a huge problem from Lenovo’s side that I hope they realize how important Linux is and will fix. I won’t hold my breath though.
    Log into Ubuntu : This is well documented in the following forum post on page 3 by user Haohe:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2215044&page=3
    His has you download quite a large file, mine should be much smaller.
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/puxnnoft3gn2b6l/WiFiFix.zip
    1.     Download the attached package with the fix.
    2.     Connect your USB internet device (tether or ethernet)
    3.     Place the packages somewhere easy to access, in this example I will place them under ~/Desktop/WiFiFix
    4.     Type ‘cd ~/Desktop/WiFiFix/’
    5.     Now we need to prep the tools we need.
    6.     Type ‘sudo apt-get update’ – we did this before, but you know, just in case
    7.     Type ‘sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname –r`’   Note around uname-r they are the ` symbol not the ‘ this is located just above the tab on the same key as ~.
    8.     Type ‘make’
    9.     Type ‘sudo cp /lib/modules/3.13.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/ideapad-laptop.ko ~/ideapad-laptop.ko.backup’
    10.   Type ‘sudo cp ~/Desktop/WiFiFix/ideapad-laptop.ko /lib/modules/3.13.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/’
    11.   Type ‘sudo modprobe -r ideapad-laptop’
    12.   Type ‘sudo modprobe ideapad-laptop’
    13.   Type ‘sudo rfkill unblock all’
    14.   Type ‘sudo modprobe -r ideapad-laptop’
    15.   Type ‘sudo mv ~/ideapad-laptop.ko.backup /lib/modules/3.13.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/ideapad-laptop.ko’
    16.   Next we need to blacklist the ideapad module
    17.   Type ‘sudo echo 'blacklist ideapad-laptop' > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf’
    a.     The first time I tried this it wouldn’t work. So I did the following
    b.     ‘sudo touch /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf’
    c.     ‘sudo vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf’
    d.     Enter     blacklist ideapad-laptop
    e.     Exit and save
    18.   Reboot your Yoga 2 13
    19.   Boot into kali and see if you have wireless, if you do then you are done. If not we will need to repeat this process with one small little change.
    Kali Wifi Fix
    1.     Copy the sources.list from the package provided
    2.     Replace /etc/apt/sources.list with the included
    3.     Some of the file path changes but the process remains the same from here.
    Congratulations you now have 3 OSes one portable to other machines and working wifi!
    Thank you

  • Data network locked down when usb tethering with a lot of request (i.e. 3 to 4 tab pages and IRC)

    Hi, i am currently using the usb tethering on my ubuntu desktop(this also happened in win8 desktop) which the data network will be locked down when open 3 to 4 tab pages in 3-4 seconds or requesting large amount of data traffic (i.e. downloading movie)
    This locked down will be recovered only  after a few minutes (4 minutes at least) when there is no more request maked.
    OR reboot the phone again. 
    This doesn't affect receiving calls, only the data network is locked down
    I do see this is a software problem as i have asked for a exchange for phone, the same thing happened again.
    Does anyone get the same problem as i experienced?
    The firmware is v.114 
    Thanks for help

    Hi z1CUser
      based on your information, i believe there is not problem with the phone, since even second phone is doing same thing as first, what I can suggest is
    >check with different phone if possible and see whether it does same, incase 'Yes" then its might be with the internet connection i believe, you can give a call to Internet Service Provider, stating the issue faced in 2 different phones
    >if possible Refresh the Router and try to connect it again
    >Last you can try to restore the phone once

  • Tethering the myRIO for use in a UAV Submarine

    I am currently working on a project where we are building a UAV submarine using the myRIO as the controller. Initially the submarine is planned to be tethered as so to give it commands (not completely autonomous yet) and for it to send image data back to the surface. The tether was decided due to the added safety that if the submarine fails we can still retrieve it by pulling it up. 
    My initial thought was to interface over Ethernet as this allows for a long length of cable to be used without a dropout in communication. The myRIO doesn't have an Ethernet port so my first question would be does anyone know of a way that I could add this functionality easily.
    If not does anyone know of a different method. I am looking for a reliable connection using about 20-30m of cable. Whatever type of cable that may be.

    Ok just to update you on where I have got to. I have had a look in MAX found the myRIO (diddnt think to look in remote devices) and no new NIC same as the web interface.
    Installed all VISA software to the RIO in the hope that the USB and ENET passports were what i needed. 
    Now i see and unknown USB device listed on the RIO but am unable to configure it in any way
    I SSHed into the RIO and had a look how the device was showing up in the /dev/ folder and only appears as 1-1
    This seems to me that a driver is need at some level. I have had a bit of a search for how to go about doing this and come accross this tutorial.
    http://plugable.com/2010/10/18/howto-asix-88178-usb-ethernet-adapter-on-ubuntu-10-10-linux
    This requires me to connect the myRIO to the web to download compile and install the ASIX drivers. I know that these have been included into the Linux kernel recently so not sure how relevant this is and also my linux knowledge runs out here so connecting the RIO to the web is a bit beyond me through terminal. 
    Thanks for all your help so far. It feels like im close.

  • IPhone tethering - ipheth not working

    Please help, I have:
    - an iphone 4 (frimware 4.1)
    - libimobiledevice (1.03)
    - usbmuxd (last one)
    - ipheth (I also tried ipheth-git)
    - ideviceinstaller
    ifconfig -a shows: cipsec0, l0, eth0, vboxnet0, wlan0 ... nothing for the iphone
    My phone is connected and recognized, I can browse it with pcmanfm, I can look at the installed applications using ideviceinstaller, but I CANNOT tether...
    ipheth is registered (I put it in rc.conf) but it does not say anything when I plug the phone with tethering activated!
    the only line in dmesg is:
    usb 2-6: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
    nothing about ipheth
    It used to work like a charm on ubuntu...
    Any idea?

    MyWi works fine over Wifi LOL. But in USB it doesn't work. I really think this is a Networkmanager problem, but as I said before downgrading did nothing for me. I'm posting the list of files that were updated when it stoped working, hopefully someone upgraded the same thing (besides networkmanager, nm-applet) and we can get somewhere from there

  • Linux tethering requires Ovi Suite (Windows) conne...

    I started a thread here a few weeks ago about tethering my E73 to a wired/wireless router, to give broadband Internet to computer OS's that lack the right USB modem driver.  I'm still working on that, and only recently got the E73 to work with Ubuntu Linux at all.  Linux would see the phone and create a ttyACM0 device, but the phone always refused to respond to modem commands.  I fought with it for over a week...until I installed Windows XP and tried connecting with Ovi Suite.  This worked on the first try.  The next day I returned to Ubuntu, which now was suddenly able to connect effortlessly  as well.  The only explanation I have is that the E73 needed Ovi Suite to install a driver on the phone or flip a hidden switch to enable tethering.  Is anyone else familiar with this phenomenon?  I suppose I could hard reset my phone to know for sure...but it's new and I really don't want to do that.
    Any thoughts?

    I never had any such problem with other Nokia devices (6280, N73, N95, N96, 5800XP, E72). I suspect you were missing an init command of sorts somewhere that is issued by OVI Suite.
    I had reasonable success with this secomdary init string (issued after ATZ and the ensuing OK response):
    AT+CGDCONT =1,"IP","xxxxxxx"
    where xxxxxxx is the APN of the access point you want to connect to.

  • Blackberry pearl 8100 as a tethered modem - once worked fine but not anymore

    For about a year upto late Sept 2008 I had been using my bb pearl 8100 as a tethered modem.  Although it was slow I was able to access the internet from my desktop pc.  But for some unknown reason in late Sept 2008 that all changed - i.e. I can longer access the internet from my desktop pc via the pearl - and neither I nor my ISP can work out what why. 
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled bb desktop manager (three different versions, the latest being 4.2.2.6), I have updated my device software, I have updated the modem drivers, I have installed the desktop software on 2 other computers and connected the pearl but I continue to experience the same problem, that being that although I am able to establish a phone connection little or no data is being transmitted.  The best I have been able to acheive is sending about 35k of data and receiving about 2.5k over a 3 hour period.  On most other occassions no data is exchanged at all although a connection is established.  Has anyone else ever experienced anything like this?  If so, how (if you did) did you  resolve it?  I'd also welcome any suggestions from others who think they have a solution.  Thanks. J.

    in windows XP you can try:
    1. Select Start> Settings> Network Connections.
    2. Double-click the New Connection Wizard. New Connection Wizard will open.
    3. Click Next.
    4. Select the option Connect to the Internet. Click Next.
    5. Select Setup my connection manually. Click Next.
    6. Select Connect using a dial-up modem. Click Next.
    7. If the Select a Device screen appears, select the Modem - Standard Modem check box. Click Next.
    8. In the ISP Name field, type a name for your connection. Click Next.
    9. In the Phone number field, type * 99 #. Click Next.
    10. Indicate which users will have access to the connection. Click Next.
    11. Enter your user name and password provided by your service provider. Click Next.
    12. Click Finish.
    13. In the Connect window, click Properties.
    14. In the Properties window, verify that Modem - Standard Modem appears beneath the Connect using heading, then click Configure.
    15. In the Modem Configuration window, clear the Enable hardware flow control check box and make sure all of the other boxes are not checked above. Click OK.
    16. In the Properties window, click OK
    in Ubuntu, I can not try it but I've tried in XP and succeeded.... good luck

  • Installation problem on Ubuntu 8.04

    When I tried to install SJSWS7 on Ubuntu 8.04 (Chinese Simplified), words on the installation windows are all unreadable words (except for the English characters). Please tell me what I can do!
    Thanks.
    Owen

    to sandycn: You are really a treasure Sandy!!!! Thanks a lot. Last night I used your way and it really worked! ^o^
    to joe.mccabe: Your solution, I believe, will work too! I'll write down both you and Sandy's suggestion and for further reference!! But I really want to know what is the default font used in WS7? I have several Chinese fonts installed in my Ubuntu 8.04, but you see none is right for WS7! Not every people is an expert for WS7, someone might be just learning how to use WS, so I believe we can make it easier for beginners!!! Or maybe all these have been written in the distribution document and I didn't find them! :-(((((((
    By the way, where can I find a handbook on how to use Netbeans6.5? My feeling is that the Java language is difficult to learn, and the IDE is also something we should learn thoroughly if we want learn Java really well! There are a lot of things written for Java, but nowhere can I find a document about how to use the IDE! The online help is not really so helpful, and the infomation provided in the Netbeans6.5 HELP is not very complete!
    The problem I encountered now is: I'm trying to write a small application for looking up phone numbers. The phone numbers are listed in a CSV file. The problem is where I should put the CSV file and how to access it! (I'm using the Netbeans IDE, and the application I'm doing on is a desktop application)
    I guess the solution must be quite easy, but I just cann't find any document to tell me the way!

  • Possible Internet Tethering/Battery Life Issue

    When either Cellular Data is turned Off, or Airplane Mode is turned On, Internet Tethering (Settings>General>Network) appears to have some process that runs continually in the background (evident by continuously spinning wheel next to the option). The running process has a demonstratively negative impact on battery life (1/3 reduction in ~ 30 mins). The Apple Genius at my local Apple Store and I verified the issue on numerous iPhone 4s that were on display. Turning Cellular Data On and ensuring the phone is not in Airplane Mode stops the activity. But obviously that defeats the purpose of having those options.
    So if you are experiencing poor battery life, this might be your issue.

    Could this be causing the unexplained usage and data transfer? I have been trying to find what is causing this. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2603718&tstart=0

  • Ubuntu, Windows, and iTunes can't see my iPod. What can I do?

    I have an iPod 5g and i have been messing around with it and i discovered the problem of iTunesLock preventing me from accessing the iPod and putting itself back on. Well in a stroke of genius I deleted the Play Counts and iTunesLock files also trying to see if that would stop iTunesLock from reappearing every time i plug in my iPod.
    Now my computer (running Ubuntu 7.10) does not see it at all. Also windows does not see it, until i remove it then it says my iPod is corrupted, but when i connect it, iTunes denies any knowledge of seeing it.
    I tried to use this website to help and it did nothing for me.
    http://www.macworld.com/article/38851/2004/09/trubipod.html
    Right now when i turn it on it shows the "Connect to computer. Use iTunes to restore iPod."
    then it goes into disk mode. Strangely, even in disk mode neither windows nor Linux can see it.
    I went into the diagnostics menu and everything seems to check out fine.
    i know there is a .Trash-matthew file on the iPod and i have a great suspicion that if i can get on the iPod and see the hidden files then i could just put the file back.
    Also BIOS does see it so I don't think its completely bricked yet.
    I am using linux but I have access to Windows Vista. So I can work in either format.
    for those versed in Linux here are some commands and their outputs for you to use:

When i restart my laptop i get the menu with lenovo recovery, windows 8, and Ubuntu(not Ubuntu 13.04 like i labeled) when clicking Ubuntu it says windows failed to load, insert media for recovery. I can't do anything to access Ubuntu at this point. I don't know what it is i'm doing wrong but could use some help. Below are some pictures of the process. I'll post any needed info that i may have forgotten. When choosing OS it's in uefi mode.

  • How to Install the Forms and Reports 6i in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS

    Dear All,
    I need to install Forms and Reports 6i in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.
    I had downloaded the d2k6irelease2.tar also and extracted the tar file.
    I don't know how to start up with the installation further., Is there any document available for the installation process inubuntu.. or what are the steps that i need to follow to make it work..?
    Many thanks in advance...

    Hi,
    Here's the Forms and Reports Services Deployment Guide for OAS 10g 10.1.2:
    http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_11/web.1012/b14032/toc.htm
    You will need to modify your default.env to point to the directory where your .fmx is located and formsweb.cfg to run the specific form, e.g. foo.fmx (default is test.fmx).
    HTH,
    Jim

  • Unable to shoot tethered with a Canon 70D

    I am trying to practice shooting tethered for an upcoming shoot. I am unable to get Lightroom and my Canon 70D to connect. I receive the dialog box shown below several seconds after attempting to connect. I went through all the steps on the "Troubleshooting tethered capture in Lightroom" and can shoot tethered using Canon's software. I am using Lightroom 5.3 on a MacBookPro 13 inch with 16 gb ram running system 10.9.1

    Lightroom does not currently support tethering on the 70D.

  • Will Ubuntu work?

    I'm having a hard time gauging whether Ubuntu will install on particular HP laptops, since there are so many models out there.
    Specifically, I was looking to get the HP PAVILION 15-P241ND for use at my job, because it has 16GB RAM, and I don't care much about the other specs.
    My question is whether Ubuntu 14.04 or later will install without major problems. So, no overheating, no fans going wild, no random lock-ups, no wifi troubles, no disk thrashing, etc.. I basically just want to use the machine to its full potential under Ubuntu.
    As I understand, HP and Dell have quite a few Ubuntu-certified laptops, so the outlook is good, but it's still difficult to figure out what to expect for a particular machine.
    I hope you can help me, or give me some pointers to further my investigations.

    That's is also misleading as well...
    What you should consider is driver support first before going to a Linux based O/S system. And should consider Windows O/S has more driver and software support as opposed to Linux O/S there  is so many distro out there there isn't one main O/S to go with. If you want to know more you should really go and ask on the Ubuntu forum for your questions.
    Beyond hardware requirements. Things to consider.
    1. Custom software supported for the O/S
    2. Driver updated supported
    3. How well after the laptop is bought is the laptop still being supported by the hardware manufacture for the O/S not the company selling the laptop.

  • Firefox running under Linux Mint (based on Ubuntu) 12 (KDE) won't install extensions for Firefox

    Linux Mint (based on Ubuntu) 12, KDE desktop
    Firefox 10.0
    Started up Firefox right after Mint was installed. On the add-ons page video download helper was shown as a featured extension and I installed it, then rebooted when prompted. After that, Firefox would never install another extension again. Just gives download error.
    I google searched and in a forum I found a post about uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. I tried it. First time I started it up, it installed video download helper again, but then would not install any other extension after that. I tried numerous extensions I '''KNOW''' are working in Firefox 10.0 because they are working in Firefox over on my Win 7. Everytime I get a download error, either from the addons site or from the Add-ons Manager in Firefox.
    Someone told me on the Mint forums that I needed to add a subdirectory on a certain directory, so I did that. Didn't work.
    It seems Ubuntu disables the root, or cripples it, and I guess Mint does too. You can still use sudo when doing things in Ubuntu (and Mint I would assume, since it's based on Ubuntu) but you can't get true 'superuser' access as I understand it. But, I don't think this would have any bearing on the problem, or my search of the Mint forums would have come up with all kinds of threads screaming about this.

    Problem solved - it was caused by an add-on called "PDF Download 3.0.0.2)
    To fix - in Firefox :
    Click on '''Tools''' command (top of screen)
    Select '''Extensions'''
    click on "'''disable''' button beside '''PDF Download'''
    Close Firefox and restart it.
    Clicking on any pdf file should open a new tab now and the document will appear there.
