Enabling/disabling boot services

[Luca Manganelli]

Hi,

I tried to disable that famous "HP printing services" (I have an epson
printer...) by using the application at "System -> Administration ->
Services" but i cannot find it (only the cups service...)

Where is it?

Is there a setting in /etc/default ?

Yes - /etc/default/hplip contains the following:


# Set RUN_HPLIP to no (anything starting with an n or N),
# if hplip should not be started (i.e.: RUN_HPLIP=no)

RUN_HPLIP=yes

It _is_ drastic.  Just remove /etc/rc2.d/...  Both Gnome & KDE have apps to
do it for you (ksysv on KDE, I don't know what it's called in Gnome).

In breezy, with the Gnome default desktop, you can enable or disable
services with System->Administration->Services, which runs the GUI
(services-admin) using gksudo

Im installing Cabextract and I ran into a little problem:
wadesmart@wadesmart:~/Downloads/Applications$ cd cabextract-1.1
wadesmart@wadesmart:~/Downloads/Applications/cabextract-1.1$ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... no

configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details.
wadesmart@wadesmart:~/Downloads/Applications/cabextract-1.1$

Am I reading this to mean I need to install a C compiler.

I was going to install gcc but I see that I already have gcc-4.0-base
installed. Dont I have the compiler?

I'm guessing here, but you could perhaps modify configure to look for
gcc-4.0. Otherwise install the gcc compiler. If you have a look in
synaptic you will see there is gcc, gcc-4.0 and a couple of others,
install gcc and you problem should be solved.

Wade, Lionel,

gcc-base is  NOT the compiler. It is just a precursor package. There are
two versions of gcc that are standard for breezy:
gcc-4.0 (version = 4.0.1) is the default compiler
gcc-3.4 (version = 3.4.4) is needed to build kernel modules


I would just install gcc-4.0 to build Cab Extract. You may also need to
add the g++ compiler, g++-4.0, if the code is C++ rather than just C.
Installation of the compiler will also install packages that it depends
on, if those packages aren't already installed.




Hope this helps



Tim

Hello, again Wade.

You should not ever need to compile anything from source!

*Always* try the repo apps first and then, if that fails, try the install from
source. You can always back out of the Debian package, but not always the
"make install".

As it is, if this is for the wine problem dan and I responded to before, then
you don;t need this version. The one in the repos is fine.

Cheers,

The resp apps - that is talking about: sudo apt-get install ie4linux right?

The script "ies4linux" is a shell script that configures an already installed
application.

The repo apps I am talking about are wine and cabextract.

(I use "repo" as short for "repository".)

If you enable whichever repos that contain wine and cabextract and then just
"apt-get install wine", you should have everything that you need to run the
ies4linux script that you download from the Brazilian host.

If cabextract is missing, then you should be able to "apt-get install
cabextract" and then run the ies4linux script.

I'm sorry if I caused confusion with my previous post and trust that this is
clearer - but knowing my English, it probably is not.....

Regards,

Nope, its a small script that you need to download and run from within
a terminal.

You need to get it from http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/

You need to extract the downloaded file; right click on it and
"Extract here" should work.

Then all you should need to do is click on "ies4linux" file and it
should walk you though the install. Make sure you have cabextract
installed first though.

Depending on how many / which versions of IE you choose to install, it
may take a while to download them all, but be patient.

And at the end of it you should have a folder in your home directory
called "bin", in which should be some scripts called ie4, ie5 etc. or
similar. Just click on one of those and Internet Explorer should come
up in all its glory.

[If anything goes wrong, try running from within a terminal, that way
you'll get to see any error messages.

Open up a terminal (Apps | Accessories | Terminal) and type in
/path/to/extracted/files/ie4slinux]
