Verbindung zum Scanner konnte nicht hergestellt werden Lösung Linux Scannen fehlgeschlagen? Diese Meldung erscheint, obwohl der Drucker bzw. Scanner angezeigt wird? 1. Wir pr�fen, ob vom System �berhaupt ein Scanner aufgelistet wird. Dazu bitte das Terminal aufrufen und den Befehl  sudo scanimage -L ausf�hren (was bedeutet Terminal/wie geht das?). Die Ausgabe sollte so wie im Bild aussehen. 2. Wir f�hren den Befehl groups aus Hier sollte lp oder lpadmin aufgelistet werden. Sollte das nicht der Fall sein, dann geht Ihr so vor: sudo adduser BENUTZERNAME lpadmin Den Benutzernamen findet Ihr im Terminal, wie oben im Bild zu sehen (das was vor @ steht - in meinem Fall muhamed ) 3. Oft hilft es den Drucker zu entfernen. Das kann nur helfen, wenn es von Beginn an nicht funktioniert hat. Ist das der Fall und hilft Punkt 3 nicht weiter, dann habt Ihr eure L�sung in Punkt 4. 4 .

Vector Linux 7 Standar Gold Review a Slackware Based Distro

Vector Linux 7 Standar Gold Review a Slackware Based Distro [Click to enlarge] For so long time, Ive used Ubuntu as my main Linux desktop and almost never took another distros a try. Several years ago, I ever used a Slackware based distro called KateOS. Also, Id tried another popular distros such as Fedora, openSUSE, Mandriva, and PCLinuxOS. Strangely, I was so impressed by KateOS, a Slackware based distro. It is solid, and ultimately stable. And now, after has been tired by �a consolidation� with Unity and Gnome 3 issues, I want to take a rest with another distro and my mind suddenly reminds me about Slackware based distros. I then google to find the right distro and finally I found Vector Linux, a Slackware based distro. Go to the homepage, and I got its newest release : Vector Linux 7 Standar GOLD, based on newest Slackware release (13.37). This distro offers two edition : Standard and SOHO. Standard version is a single free full-featured installation CD, and SOHO is a non-f...

Using Archives on Linux USING ARCHIVES ON LINUX Archives like tar,gzip,bzip2,rar,zip pack in a number of files in a single archive and further compresses them using various algorithms thus making the files occupy much less space as compared to original files. Linux provides a number of options for compressing the file , in the article we look at various options available under Linux and using them describing the command line tools and graphical front-ends like Ark and File-roller. gzip (GNU Zip) gzip can be used for compressing a single file , it is not meant for compressing entire directories as other file formats do . The default extension used bu gzip archives is ( .gz ) . gzip filename.ext This would create a file name filename.gz and replace the existing filename.ext file with filename.ext.gz file which is compressed gzip archive , the gzip command retains the files attributes the modification,time stamp, access etc. The compression level of the file can be varied by using opti...

Valves OpenGL debugger for Linux game devs created on Ubuntu It seems like Valve is not done yet when it comes to Linux and gaming. According to this recent blog post by Valves own Rich Geldreich, they are actively working on an OpenGL debugger aimed at Linux game developers which will also be open source.  VOGL: Valves OpenGL debugger for Linux OpenGL debugging has always lagged behind DirectX, mainly because of the excellent graphics debugging tools shipped with Visual Studio. But all that might change very soon with Valves active interest in the development of an alternative OpenGL debugger called VOGL.  The entire code for VOGL is written and tested on Linux, on Kubuntu 13.10, Ubuntu 12.04 and Linux Mint to be exact. Valves VOGL debugger was shown off at the Steam Dev Days conference held on 15th of this month at Seattle.  And the debugger will be open source. According to Rich Geldreich, "Were going completely open source - GL is just too large of an API (and changin...

Vanillux An Ubuntu Based GNU Linux Distribution that Comes With Gnome3!

Vanillux An Ubuntu Based GNU Linux Distribution that Comes With Gnome3! Since were gonna be, somewhat missing the "Gnome support" in the future versions of Ubuntu (starting with the 11.10, although itll still be officially supported through online repositoreis but not in the CD/DVD) its about time that someone comes up with GNU/Linux distribution thats based on Ubuntu as the "core" yet uses the Gnome 3 or the Shell as the default desktop rather than the Unity interface. Its called Vanillux and its so new at the moment that its not stable thus not recommended for everyday usage. Now to be honest I havent tried it (yet) but the thing that got me excited, as said, it uses Ubuntu as the core + supports Gnome desktop only (both the classic and the new Shell). So basically if you (like me) happened to both hate and love Ubuntu at the same time then Im pretty sure that could be the sort of a community that is building the Vanillux Linux at the moment. According to their ho...

Using Lego Mindstorms NXT with Ubuntu Linux

Image
Using Lego Mindstorms NXT with Ubuntu Linux The Lego Mindstorms NXT brick is an incredibly versatile programmable brick consisting of a microcontroller inside a plastic casing with an LCD display, four buttons, a speaker and eight external connections. Unfortunately, though, it only ships with compilers for Legos "NXT-G" graphical language that run on Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh platforms. There is, however, a multitude of text-based languages available for the main platforms (Linux/Unix included). The variety of languages available is beyond the scope of this article, but there is an excellent page here that should provide enough information to get started. In this article I will be setting up the NBC/NXC compiler for use on Ubuntu Maverick (it should work on most current *nix releases, too - if not, please comment and well look into it). The first thing to do is make sure the NXT brick is recognised by the system. To do this we run: david@pinatubo:~$ lsusb|grep Le...
