On Ubuntu 8 I installed openoffice3 manually (download openoffice3..deb
and install it).
Upgrade to Ubuntu 9 I discovered the "computer Janitor" and I tried to
start it.
After removing everything recommended I discovered it removed the
openoffice installation. I tried to installing openoffice3 once again
(using synaptic I installed openoffice.org, openoffice.org3,
ooobasic3.0-writer, ooobasic3.0-draw...) and now I get: "The application
cannot be started. iso resource could not be loaded by SfxApplication"
error message.

Any idea?

Hello there,

Can anyone recommend a good way to stream a presentation over
the internet
so that someone is able to view a presentation I am giving
preferably within
their browser? I usually make presentations using LaTeX so I
just go full

but I wasn't
able to find anything overly promising.

open office can do a save-as in flash format. they work really well. you
would have to create the presentation in open office (or import it in)
and then save it. i've used that method.

Did you check the version already installed by ubuntu 9.04? I show it
to be 3.0.1 already. Perhaps trying to install it has confused your
system?

I am wanting to install win32codecs, files for MP3 etc. et al., with an
initial view to being able to chose MP3 as my filetype in Gnome Sound
Recorder. So I found instructions on the net and tried to add the
Medibuntu
repositories to my sources list.

I now have a Medibuntu entry in sources.list.d, but nothing in sources.list
and Synaptic does not seem to be using it.

I am new to Ubuntu and Gnome, tho' not to Linux, and a recording and mixing
n00b and ignoramus.

All advice in sorting this out gratefully received, and by all means ask me
if
I have plugged it in!! Or tell me to RTFM. ;-( But if you say the second,
could you tell me where to find the FM??

TIA
Lisi

Did you do $sudo aptitude update to get the repository headers first?

What's the source for recording? Microphone, or something else?
Personally I like audacity.

What does

> sudo apt-get update

give ? Do you see anything from medibuntu listed ?

If it does try running

> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

to make sure you are up to date.

Then see if

> sudo apt-get install w32codecs

does anything.

If anything above fails. Post the output you get.

I can't get my (wife's!) Macbook Pro (old model 17") to boot from its
internal hard disk.

I was playing with Ubuntu on an external USB hard disk...

I installed both Mac OS X and Ubuntu 9.04 on the external disk. The Mac
OS installation boots fine, the Ubuntu installation does not (I am
guessing I needed to use Bootcamp and I didn't).

Now I can boot from the external disk and I can boot from a CD but I
CANNOT boot from the internal disk.

- When I am booted from the external disk all the internal disk files
seem to be there, the Disk Utility was happy with a disk check.

- I tried to set the internal disk as the boot disk using the Disk
Utility (it thinks that is a reasonable option), but that doesn't work.

- I tried to boot with the option key down (to get list of boot
options), all I get is a mouse pointer (or external disk if external is
plugged in).

- I tried to boot with the D-key held down to force booting from the
internal disk, but that doesn't work.

- I reset the parameter RAM (cmd-option-P-R when booting).

- I reset the power manager unit (pull battery and power, hold down
power button for 5-seconds).

My guess is that the either Ubuntu or Mac OS installer flipped some
obscure but crucial bit in the partitioning, something the Disk Utility
doesn't notice but the EFI bootrom does care about. Suggestions??


Thanks,

-kb, the Kent who is currently doing a complete "rsync -ax" from the
internal to the external disk, in case he needs to reinstall everything
just to get the partitioning correct again.

Hola!

At initiating ubuntu (9.04) i get the message, in a message window:

"No system tray detected on this system. Unable to start. Exiting. "

--- What does this mean (what is the system tray?), and what can I do?
