[Yoga: Partitionen] Linux (Ubuntu) parallel zu Windows 8.1

Hallo gemeinsam,
ich würde gerne auf dem Yoga Ubuntu parallel zu Windows 8.1 Installieren.
Nun habe ich aber schon vor der Installation Probleme, eine richtige Partition zu wählen.
Yoga hat schon im vorhinen die 500 GB große HDD in 4 verschiedene Partitionen unterteilt, wobei ich aber keinen Überblick habe, Auf welcher Partition denn nun wirklich die Recovery Dateien drauf sind?
Zu dem besitzt mein Yoga (20CD000MGE) auch noch eine 16 GB SSD... Diese hat jedoch kein bestimmtes Dateisystem laut der Datenträgerverwaltung und zeigt an dass diese komplett unbelegt sei. Das lässt mich jedoch auch etwas zweifeln ob das stimmt, da dass gleiche für die Recovery Partionen gilt... Wenn diese wirklich unbelegt wären, wo ist dann das Backup gespeichert und für was wurden diese dann überhaupt erstellt?
Bei dem Versuch die Windows8_OS Partition zu unterteilen, bekomme ich einen Fehler, dass das ausgewählte Volume evtl. beschädigt sei... (siehe Screenshot)
Link zum Bild
Beim Ubuntu Installer erkennt Ubuntu auch Windows8 nicht als Betriebssystem....
Wäre super wenn ihr mir helfen könntet.
--> Für was sind die verschiedenen Partitionen und sind diese wirklich unbenutzt und wieso haben diese kein bekanntes Dateisystem?
--> Gleiche Fragen gelten für die 16 GB SSD...
--> Wie kann ich die Windows8_OS Partition nochmals für Ubuntu partitionieren?
--> Hat jemand von euch Erfahrung damit?
Vielen Dank im voraus!

Firefox can't open hotmail from Linux ubuntu, but from windows it can

Today nov 9, trying to access hotmail using firefox from linux ubuntu is not working, it opens the login.live.com, but after entering credentials it just hangs and later it says: Connection reset by remote server.
3 days ago i just could logged in perfectly, i've spent the whole day trying and testing.
I've tried to login from a windows machine and it works perfectly, so whats the problem with firefox for linux???. PLZ HELP !!!!!!!!

When you load a video on YouTube, Firefox starts the Flash plugin with YouTube's SWF player. The SWF player imports and plays the actual MP4 or FLV media. Firefox doesn't associate Flash with these formats directly.
Can you use a stand-alone player, such as QuickTime or VLC to play the downloaded file outside of the browser?
If you need to play it in the browser, perhaps someone has posted instructions on how to do it. Because of security restrictions, you probably would need to save a web page file (.html) and a SWF player into the same folder as the media in order to get everything to work together.

How to use Linux OS parallel with Windows

I've been using my laptop(P500) for a year and half now, It has been Windows 8 since then. I need to use Linux OS (CentOS) for my studies. How can I use Linux and Windows 8 on the same device?
There are 2 drives; C: 650GB and D: 24GB

It sounds like a problem of advanced network parameter settings.
You can start "Interface Configuration Utility", choose the port and select "Edit", then choose "Advanced..." button to have "Advanced Stack Configuration" dialog.
Change values to:
T1 0x40000,
T2 0x40000,
T3 0x30000,
Slot Time 5
Click OK to close "Interface Configuration Utility", and run NI-FBUS CM or Configurator to check whether it helps.
If you have 3.0 or 3.1 version, you just choose the "Old Default" button to set the values automatically.

Lenovo Yoga 2 13, Kali Linux 1.0.7, Ubuntu 14.04, Windows 8.1 install, config, and wifi fix.

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

Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition on Linux Ubuntu 11.10 howto
h2. Purpose
This document outlines instructions how to install Oracle XE under Ubuntu 11.10.
Ubuntu or Debian based Linux is not on the list of supported operation systems according to the Oracle documentation at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18802/toc.htm. You may want to consider virtualization software like Oracle Virtualbox and install Oracle Enterprise Linux as a free and professional alternative to installing XE under Ubuntu. You can also download pre-build virtual machines that include Oracle XE. You can browse http://otn.oracle.com/community/developer-vm for more information.

h4. 11) History
h4. 12) References
h2. 1) Install Linux Ubuntu
The following assumes you have installed Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop Edition for AMD 64-bit, or upgraded from a previous version. Keep in mind that Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition is only available for 64-bit architecture. It is not necessarily a requirement, but I would not bother to install Oracle 11gR2 XE on a system with less than 2 GB of RAM installed. You can download Ubuntu for free at: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu and install it using the default settings provided.
You can apply the latest OS patch-sets by clicking the power button icon in the upper right hand corner of the screen and selecting "Updates available..."
h2. 2) Remote Terminal
You will need command line access to perform the installation tasks. Select the top "Dash Home" button of the Unity toolbar and enter the word "terminal", or use CTRL-ALT-t. If you prefer to open a remote terminal session use SSH. Ubuntu does not come with a secure shell login by default. To install it, use the following command:
sudo apt-get install openssh-serverYou cannot login as root unless you set a root password using the "sudo passwd root" command. However, you can get root user access using the "sudo" command, which requires only to re-enter the password of your personal account. Access to "sudo" is controlled by the /etc/sudoers file.
The best way to establish a remote command line session as root is to login with your personal account, e.g.: ssh [email protected], and then type "sudo su -" to become root, or use "sudo <command>" to execute individual commands. If your account does not have "sudo" access you can login as root using "su - root", but will need to know the root password.
h2. 3) Install Additional Software
Oracle 11g Express Edition requires additional software that is not installed by default:
sudo apt-get install alien libaio1 unixodbch2. 4) Managing Swap Space
Oracle demands that the minimum swap space for Oracle Database XE is 2 GB (2095100 KB) or twice the size of RAM, whichever is lesser. Enter the following shell command to verify your swap space:
cat /proc/meminfo | grep -i swap
SwapCached:            0 kB
SwapTotal:       2095100 kB
SwapFree:        2095100 kBYou can increase available swap space by using a swap file as long as disk space permits. The advantage of a swap file versus a swap partition is flexible space management because you can add or delete swap space on demand as necessary. The following will create and enable an additional 1 GB swap file at system startup, located in the /home directory:
Login as root:
sudo su -Enter the following commands:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/swapfile bs=1024 count=1048576
mkswap /home/swapfile
swapon /home/swapfile
swapon -aCreate a backup of the original "fstab" file and add the new swap file:
cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup_`date +%N`
echo '/home/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0' >> /etc/fstabExit from root and verify the new swap space:
exit
swapon -s
Filename                    Type          Size     Used     Priority
/dev/sda5                               partition     2095100     0     -1
/home/swapfile                          file          1048572     0     -2Swap space is not a substitute for installed RAM. Swap space is a safeguard that allows the system to move idle processes to disk before the OOM killer will begin to terminate processes in order to free up enough real memory to keep the system operational. The general rule for sizing the swap space depends on the size of installed RAM. If your system has less then 4 GB of RAM the swap space should usually be at least twice this size. If you have more than 8 GB of RAM installed you may consider to use an equal size as swap space. The more RAM you have installed, the less likely you are going to run into memory starvation, and the less likely you are going to need swap space, unless you have a bad process.
h2. 5) Modify Kernel Parameters
Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition requires the following Kernel parameters. Enter the commands exactly as shown:
Login as root:
sudo su -Cut & paste the following directly into a command shell (not a text editor):
cat > /etc/sysctl.d/60-oracle.conf <<-EOF
# Oracle 11g XE kernel parameters
fs.file-max=6815744
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range=9000 65500
kernel.sem=250 32000 100 128
# kernel.shmmax=429496729
kernel.shmmax=107374183
EOFLoad and verify the new kernel parameters:
service procps start
sudo sysctl -q fs.file-max
sudo sysctl -q kernel.shmmax
sudo sysctl -q net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range
sudo sysctl -q kernel.sem The SHMMAX kernel parameter defines the upper memory limit of a process. It is a safeguard to stop a bad process from using all memory and causing RAM starvation. The Linux default is 32 MB. The official Oracle XE installation documentation suggests a value of 4 GB -1 bytes (429496729). Since Oracle 11g XE has a 1 GB memory limit, a smaller footprint will be a better safeguard for the complete system. Setting the SHMMAX parameter to 107374183 will be sufficient.
h2. 6) Oracle Home Directory
At the time of this writing, Enterprise Linux 6 is not supported for Oracle database yet. It is therefore not possible to confirm Oracle ext4 filesystem compatibility, which is default in Ubuntu 11. According to various information, ext4 may cause a performance problem for Oracle 11g database. The following will show you how to add a ext3 partition to your existing setup.
h3. 6.a) Resize the Root Partition
Provided you have sufficient free disk space, you should be able to resize the root partition to create an extra ext3 filesystem. Considering the 11 GB user datafile limit of the Express Edition, 18 GB should be more than enough.
You can use the free Gparted Live CD to shrink your startup volume. Gparted downloads are available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/gparted-live-stable. When burning the CD, pay attention to burn the raw .iso image and not the possibly "mounted" image. If you are using a virtual machine like Oracle Virtualbox, you can mount the .iso image directly. There are going to be a few prompts when the system starts from the CD, but you can press Return to accept the defaults.
When the Gparted window appears:
- Select your ext4 root partition, usually /dev/sda1
- Select the "Resize/Move" button from the toolbar.
- Enter 18000 into the "Free space following" field and press the Return key.
Be careful not not change the start of the partition!
- Click the "Resize/Move" of the dialog and then then the "Apply" toolbar button.
The process may take several minutes - do not abandon it!
- Select the new unallocated free space of ~ 18 GB and push the "New" button.
- Set the file system to "ext3" and label it "oraclexe" and click the "Add" button.
Be sure to label it oraclexe, otherwise the follow-up instructions will fail.
- Finally select "Apply from the toolbar to apply the changes.
- Quit "Gparted", select "Exit" from the desktop and choose "Reboot" to restart the system.
{code}
After the system has restarted, open a terminal command shell.
Login as root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Backup "fstab" and add the UUID of the partition. The "tr" command remove the quotes:
{code}
cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab_`date +%N`
uuid=`blkid | grep oraclexe | awk '{print $3}'`
uuid=`echo $uuid | tr -d '\042'`
echo $uuid
echo "$uuid /u01 ext3 errors=remount-ro 0 1" >> /etc/fstab
{code}
The UUID is a unique number and should look similar to:
{code}
UUID=d1db753e-b5dd-4a4c-a61e-259c69867b58
{code}
Restart the system:
{code}
reboot
{code}
Verify the success:
{code}
df -h /u01
{code}
h3. 6.b) Setup External Storage
If you prefer to setup an external drive to install Oracle XE, beware that it can be a fatal mistake to make an entry in /etc/fstab to automount your external storage device. An unavailable device in /etc/fstab will prevent a system startup and prompt for appropriate actions at the console.
The following is an example of how to prepare an external storage device to be used for Oracle 11g, including a script to automatically mount an external drive at system startup without the disadvantages of /etc/fstab. The script will also take into consideration that a device name might shift if you attach additional devices.
To find out which USB devices are connected:
{code}
sudo parted -l
{code}
Look for the device that matches your USB storage. For example: /dev/sdb1
{code}
Model: USB 2.0 Flash Disk (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdb: 2064MB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Number Start   End     Size    File system Name     Flags
1      20.5kB 1929MB 1929MB hfs+         mystick
{code}
Initialize the device using ext3 filesystem - this will erase all data. The "-c" option will check for bad blocks (read-only), "-L" is the volume label:
{code}
sudo umount /dev/sdb1
sudo mkfs.ext3 -c -L oraclexe /dev/sdb1
{code}
Install the pmount distribution package:
{code}
sudo apt-get install pmount
{code}
Login as root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Cut & paste the following into the command prompt (not a text editor):
{code}
cat > /etc/init.d/oracle-mount <<-EOF
#! /bin/sh

h2. 7) ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET
Oracle 11gR2 XE under Ubuntu 11.10 will result in "ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not support on this system" either at Oracle database startup or during the initial installation. Ubuntu 11.10 uses a new version of the "systemd" system and session manager and has migrated away from /dev/shm and other common directories in favor of /run.
There are several ways how to address the problem. You can either enable /dev/shm shared memory, or change the default memory management of Oracle 11g from AMM (Automatic Memory Management) to ASMM (Automatic Shared Memory Management) as it was in used the previous 10g version. Since AMM is one of the new features of 11g, the following will show you how to make to make AMM work.

The upper limit of shared memory under Linux is set to 50 % of the installed RAM by default. If your system has less than 2 GB of RAM installed, there is still a chance to run into ORA-00845 error if your shared memory is used by other software.
The verify available shared memory, type the following commands:
{code}
sudo df -h /run/shm
{code}
h2. 8) Installing Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition
The final release version of Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition can be downloaded for free at http://otn.oracle.com/database/express-edition/downloads. The software should automatically downloaded into the "Downloads" folder of your home directory.
Enter the following commands to unpack the installer:
{code}
cd ~/Downloads
unzip oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm.zip
rm oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm.zip
{code}
The Debian Linux based package management of Ubuntu is not compatible with the Red Hat package manager. The Oracle installer needs to be converted using the following commands:
{code}
cd ~/Downloads/Disk1
sudo alien --to-deb --scripts oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm
(This may take a few minutes)
rm oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm
{code}
The following needs to be set for compatibility:
{code}
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/awk /bin/awk
sudo mkdir /var/lock/subsys
{code}
Ubuntu uses different tools to manage services and system startup scripts. The "chkconfig" tool required by the Oracle installer is not available in Ubuntu. The following will create a file to simulate the "chkconfig" tool.
Login as root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Copy & paste the following *directly* into the command prompt to create a file:
{code}
cat > /sbin/chkconfig <<-EOF
#!/bin/bash
# Oracle 11gR2 XE installer chkconfig hack for Debian based Linux (by dude)
# Only run once.
echo "Simulating /sbin/chkconfig..."

{code}
h2. 9) Post-Installation
In order to use sqlplus and other tools, the Oracle account requires specific environment variables. The following will set these variables automatically at every Oracle login:
Login as the Oracle user:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Copy the default account skeleton files and add the Oracle env script to .profile:
{code}
cp /etc/skel/.bash_logout ./
cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ./
cp /etc/skel/.profile ./
echo "" >>./.profile
echo '. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh' >>./.profile
{code}
By default, the Oracle Database XE graphical user interface is only available at the local server, but not remotely. The following will enable remote logins:
Login as the Oracle user:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Login as SYSDBA and execute the following:
{code}
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> EXEC DBMS_XDB.SETLISTENERLOCALACCESS(FALSE);
exit
{code}
See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17781_01/admin.112/e18585/toc.htm for more information.
h3. a) Unity desktop configurations
The Oracle XE menu under the previous Gnome Classic desktop shows several useful scripts to backup the database, start and stop the database, etc. Under the Unity based desktop this menu is not available. You can either switch to the Gnome Classic desktop as outlined in chapter 2, or perform the following steps to modify and copy the scripts as outlined below. The start and stop database scripts will also be modified to perform a progress feedback.
Login as user root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Convert desktop files:
{code}
cd /usr/share/applications
sed -i 's/Categories.*/Categories=Database;Office;Development;/g' oraclexe*
sed -i 's/MultipleArgs/X-MultipleArgs/g' oraclexe*
sed -i 's/MimeType.*/MimeType=application\/x-database/g' oraclexe*
sed -i 's/.png//g' oraclexe*
sed -i 's/Terminal=false/Terminal=true/g' oraclexe-startdb.desktop
sed -i 's/Terminal=false/Terminal=true/g' oraclexe-stopdb.desktop
{code}
Exit root:
{code}
exit
{code}
Login as user Oracle:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Modify database start and stop scripts:
{code}
cd /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/config/scripts
cp startdb.sh start.sh_orig
cp stopdb.sh stopdb.sh_orig
sed -i 's/>.*//g' startdb.sh
sed -i 's/>.*//g' stopdb.sh
{code}
You will need SYSDBA privileges and set Oracle environment variables in order to use your regular user account.
Login to your regular user account:
{code}
su - dude
{code}
Enter the folowing command:
{code}
sudo usermod -a -G dba dude
{code}
Then update your profile to automatically set the necessary Oracle environment variables:
{code}
echo "" >>./.profile
echo '. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh' >>./.profile
{code}
Update your Desktop folder to contain useful Oracle XE scripts:
{code}
cp /usr/share/applications/oraclexe* ~/Desktop
chmod 750 ~/Desktop/oraclexe*
{code}
To verify success re-login and try "sqlplus":
{code}
su - oracle
sqlplus / as sysdba
{code}
h2. 10) Tips and Troubleshooting
h3. 10. a) Port 1521 appears to be in use by another application
Error: Port 1521 appears to be in use by another application. Specify a different port.This error happens after a previously unsuccessful configuration attempt using /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure script. The script was able to start the Listener process, but most likely failed to continue to clone the database, e.g. ORA-00845. The following should correct the problem:
Determine the oracle listener process that is already running:
{code}
$ ps -ef | grep oracle
{code}
Your output should be similar to:
{code}
oracle   19789     1 0 19:46 ?        00:00:00 /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/tnslsnr
{code}
Then kill the process, using the appropriate process id, for instance:
{code}
$ sudo kill -9 19789
{code}
h3. 10.b) cannot touch `/var/lock/subsys/listener': No such file or directory
Starting Oracle Net Listener...touch: cannot touch `/var/lock/subsys/listener': No such file or directoryThis error occurs when you run /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure, but failed the preinstallation step to create the /var//lock/subsys directory as outlined in chapter 8.
h3. 10.c) ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET
ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system See chapter 7 to enable /dev/shm and verify free space available in /run/shm
h3. 10.d) Apex ADMIN password
According to the Oracle documentation, the password for the INTERNAL and ADMIN Oracle Application Express user accounts is initially the same as the SYS and SYSTEM administrative user accounts. Well, I tried several times without success. To reset the Apex Admin password:
Login as user oracle:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Login as SYSDBA and type the following:
{code}
sqlplus / as sysdba
{code}
At the SQL prompt, type the following to be prompted to change the password:
{code}
SQL> @?/apex/apxxepwd.sql
exit
{code}
When done, open your browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
Workspace: Internal
Username: ADMIN
Password: password you set with apxxepwd.sql
I will prompt you to reset the password:
old password: password you set with apxxepwd.sql
new password: final_password
You can also login as the Apex Admin using http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/apex_admin
h3. 10.e) SYS and SYSTEM password
Use the following commands to reset the SYS and SYSTEM passwords if necessary:
Login as the Oracle user:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Login as SYSDBA and type the following at the SQL prompt:
{code}
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> alter user sys identified by "password" account unlock;
SQL> alter user system identified by "password" account unlock;
SQL> exit
{code}
h3. 10.f) Uninstall Oracle 11g XE
The following will completely uninstall and remove Oracle 11g XE:
Open a terminal seesion and login as user root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Enter the following:
{code}
/etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
dpkg --purge oracle-xe
rm -r /u01/app
rm /etc/default/oracle-xe
update-rc.d -f oracle-xe remove
update-rc.d -f oracle-mount remove
update-rc.d -f oracle-shm remove
{code}
h3. 10.g) Reconfigure Oracle 11g XE
Type the following commands in a terminal window:
{code}
sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
sudo rm /etc/default/oracle-xe
sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure
{code}
h3. 10.h) Gnome Classic desktop
Ubuntu 11 moved from the Gnome Classic desktop to Unity and removed the "Ubuntu Classic" login option. Unity was designed to make more efficient use of space given a limited screen size and touch screens. If you prefer to use the Gnome Classic desktop, enter the following into a terminal window:
{code}
sudo apt-get install gnome-panel
{code}
To log into the Gnome Classic desktop, select the "Gearwheel" at the login screen and select "Gnome Classic".
h3. 10.i) Unix vi cursor keys
The instructions in this tutorial do not require the use of any text editor. However, if you would like use the backspace and cursor keys in the "vi-editor", the following needs to be installed:
{code}
sudo apt-get install vim
{code}
h3. 10.j) Backup Database
In order to perform an online database backup using the supplied "Backup Database" script, the database needs to run in Archive-Log mode. This can be setup using the following commands:
Login as the Oracle user:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Login as SYSDBA and type the following:
{code}
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> shutdown immediate
SQL> startup mount
SQL> alter database archivelog;
SQL> alter database open;
SQL> exit
{code}

Excellent Blog. Thank You
Small clarification on Step **6) Oracle Home Directory, ...a) Resize the Root Partition**
Ubuntu 11.10 has Gparted available as a Ubuntu software download, DONT use that while trying the above step, instead download the ISO file from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/gparted-live-stable/ gparted-live-0.12.0-5.iso (124.6 MB)
Burn that ISO file on a Blank DVD, reboot the Ubuntu , during startup select Boot from DVD Option if not already selected. this will take to Boot Menu Options of Gparted Live then select the first menu option, and this allows to do further action such as Re-sizing .
and once you have chosen and executed step a) . do NOT run step b) also that is "Setup External Storage"
I hope this minor clarification can avoid some confusion

Can't Boot Ubuntu LiveCd or Windows XP SP2 CD

I just got a replcament MacPro. My first defective Macpro had a defective Graphics Card but it did come with the Sony DVD Drives. My replacement MacPro came with the Pioneer DVD drives (but the Graphics card works).
My original Mac Pro could boot a Ubuntu LiveCd or Windows XP SP 2 CD (when I hold the C key at boot up time).
This replacment mac Pro will not. It tries to boot off the CD but after 30 seconds or so, it just spits out the Ubuntu LiveCD or Windows XP SP 2 CD. Then mac OS X boots up.
Any ideas? Why can't I boot off a Linux LiveCD or Windows XP SP 2 DVD?
Rob

I've just escaped Boot Camp ****. Went to Boot Camp and it didn't start up as it has for a year.
It jumped to checking the XP hard drive and would not recognize the keyboard. No input possible. Finally got to XP and it restarted all over again before I could select starting up with OS X. Went through this a dozen times or so before I was lucky enough to get out of it and start in OS X using an OS X install disk.
What keystrokes are used to bail out of Boot Camp when it fails and start up in OS X?
I'm afraid to try to fix XP in Boot Camp unless I know for sure, as I'm visiting my folks and haven't brought all my software disks with me.
If all else fails, can I wipe the Boot Camp partition and reload XP?
Or must I wipe the whole drive and reload everything?
Thanks be I have a new fireWire 1 TB coming, but am also waiting on an ordered FireWire cable to arrive.
Thanks

How to run Adobe Reader on Linux Ubuntu? [was:Which progam ?]

Opening a file succeeds in Linux but fails in Windows

Hi,
I have written an addon to OO Writer. It works properly with GNU-Linux (Ubuntu 9.04, JAVA 6)
I tried it under Windows 7 RC (I have no other Windows OS available)
I have a problem opening a file.
Here is the code I use
class Dictionary {
   ArrayList brutEntry = new ArrayList();
   ArrayList entryList = new ArrayList();
   DicEntry temp = null;
   public boolean enamdictEnabled;
   public boolean edictEnabled;
    * @param dicFileName A String representing the name of the edict file which contains the dictionary entries
    * Each entry correspond to a line of the file
    * The dictionary must be EUC-JP coded.
    * @exception exceptions No exceptions thrown
   Dictionary(String dicFileName, String signature) {
      File f=new File(dicFileName);
         WarningHandler.displayMessage("I did; File f=new File(dicFileName); with "+dicFileName+" as a file name"+
                 "\nthe reselt is: "+f.toString()+" with f.toString()");
      BufferedReader i = null;
      try {
      i = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(f), "EUC-JP"));//dicFileName
         String str1 = null;
         while ((str1 = i.readLine()) != null) {
            // System.out.println(signature+"making a new entry"+Integer.toHexString(index));
            temp = new DicEntry(str1);
            temp.entrySignature = signature;
            entryList.add(temp);
      } catch (IOException ex) {
         System.out.println("Error message: "+ex.getMessage());
         Logger.getLogger(Dictionary.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
         WarningHandler.displayMessage("There was a problem opening or reading the " + dicFileName +
                 " dictionary file. Please check that your file and filepath are correct and" +
                 "that your dictionary file is EUC-JP encoded");
      } finally {
         try {
            i.close();
         } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(Dictionary.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
At first I used
     i = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(dicFileName), "EUC-JP"));//dicFileNamewithout the intermediate File creation but the result is the same, under Linux it works and under Windows it fails opening the file.
From my WarningHandler.displaymessage method I can see taht the file name is correctly (at least I guess) as it is:
/home/jaaf/jilt/theFileName with Linux
c:\Users\jaaf\jilt\thefileName with Windows
For information the file theFileName is EUC-JP encoded and contains Japanese Characters
Thank you for help

I split the line
i = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(f), "EUC-JP"));//dicFileName
in 3.
It seems that FileInputStream and InputStreamReader pass without problem.
But the line
i=new BufferedReader(isr); where isr is the InputStreamReader makes the program crash (Even the catch is not treated).
The message I get is:
Run Time Error
prog C:\ProgramFiles\OPenOffice.org3\program\soffice.bin
The application has requested the RunTime to terminate it in an unusual way.
please contact application support....

Hi,
Thank You for help;
I used stack trace
It seems that the error comes from the encoding.
Here is the trace:

I don't understand why on Linux it works but not on Windows

Solaris Express on Linux Ubuntu (Gutsy)

I am trying to install SDXE on my VAIO laptop. It passed the compatibility tests, so there should be no problem.
But, despite I have a 12 GB primary partition available, the installer tells that there is a problem with Linux FDisk partitions, which can not coexist with Solaris FDisk partitions.
I have read that it is possible to have a multiboot computer with Solaris/Linux(Ubuntu 7.10 in my case) and Windows.
But the installer does not go further.
Or should I get rid of my Ubuntu Linux?
thanks in advance for any advice on this.

Finally, after three shots, I got Solaris in my notebook.
Now, I am struggling with WPA for my wireless network. Where does Solaris store WPA keys?
After a couple of hours, I decided to move to my router and wire my notebook :(
But it is ok. May be somebody could help me with this.
Also, is there a stand-by / hibernate option?
best regards from Lima, Peru

Silverlight dosen't work at Firefox 18.0.2 on linux ubuntu 12.10

Silverlight (Moonlight, in fact) dosen't work at Firefox 18.0.2 on linux ubuntu 12.10.

Moonlight claims to be substitue for Silverlight. Microsoft owns Silverlight who also invests in developing Moonlight using Mono for Linux is a way to hide their monopoly state, If not Moonlight should be definitely be working on Linux based OS.
It is clear that Microsoft shows we provide alternative and then if it does not work users need to switch to Windows and yes Moonlight does not work.

Problem with a Flex into Linux (Ubuntu)

Good morning to all
I have a problem with a project done in flash builder 4.
My   project works well in a WAMP Server in Windows 7 is a project that   connects to a MySQL database, but I would like to migrate the entire   project done in a WAMP server on Linux (Ubuntu Web Server). The problem I have is that my Ubuntu server I have everything properly installed:
Apache
Php
MySQL - phpMyAdmin
Zend Framework
but when I upload all my project from WAMP to my Linux server - I get an error:
... Class "CategoryService" does not exist: Plugin by name 'CategoryService' was not found in the registry; Used paths:
: C: / wamp / www / Servers-debug / services /
#   0 / opt/ZendFramework/release-1.9.7/library/Zend/Amf/Server.php (550):   Zend_Amf_Server-> _dispatch ('getAllCategory', Array,   'CategoryService')

# 2 / var / www / Servers-debug / gateway.php (69): Zend_Amf_Server-> handle ()
# 3 (main) ...
obviously -> "... C: / wamp / www / Servers-debug / services / ..." it is a mistake because it is the path of my wamp server (Windows), but do not know
where to modify the code of my project to understand the
following path: / var / www / Servers-debug / services / <- that is my address in ubuntu?
anyone can help me, please!!

How to install JDK on LINUX Ubuntu on system with no net/wireless?

Hello!
I need to install JDK on LINUX Ubuntu on system with no net/wireless connection.
What are the commands?
Thank you!

- Download your release of choice from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
- Put the file on a USB thumb drive
- Mount that drive on the target machine
- Follow the installation instructions.
The Linux/Ubuntu downloads of the JDK are offline installers (i.e. the downloaded file contains everything that's required). Only Windows currently has an online installer (smaller initial download, but requires a net connection for the actual installation)
Alternatively: install the OpenJDK from the official Ubuntu packages using apt-zip (http://wiki.debian.org/AptZip).

Linux ubuntu firefox 3.6 fonts

I have mentioned last time the firefox fonts problem in linux ubuntu.
Now i have the proof !
I already follow many fonts setting instructions via forums but it still the same.
This is the only reason i switch to chromium, google chrome.

== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US) AppleWebKit/533.2 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.342.9 Safari/533.2

I just upgraded to Kubuntu 10.04 and I immediately noticed how cruddy the text looked in Firefox. Here's something I found that seems to help.
Go to System Settings > Fonts
Enable "Use anti-aliasing", then click on the "Configure" button. A
pop-up window comes up titled "Configure anti-aliasing settings," and click in the box for "Use sub-pixel renderings"; next to that, in the drop-down window, I chose RGB. I left "Hinting Style" at "Medium."
I don't know all the details, but these settings use the color sub-pixels to smooth out the font appearance. Good enough for me, at any rate.
