I am working on LAR protocol, ns2 version = 2.32
OS = ubuntu 12.04

i successfully installed LAR NS on my system . but nam does not qork with ns-2.32 . so i tried to install with the following command

sudo make install nam ===> it successfully installed namv1.15 . but when i run box.tcl it is giving me the following error

SORTING LISTS ...DONE!
channel.cc:sendUp - Calc highestAntennaZ_ and distCST_
highestAntennaZ_ = 1.5, distCST_ = 220.0
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

then i tried to remove the nam with this command sudo apt-get remove nam ==> removed
then i installed this nam from (nam_1.14_amd64.deb) . when i write nam it shows me network animator window v1.14 but segmentataion fault error remains the same .

I also tried to install nam-1.14.i586.tar.gz , first untar it and then the following command sudo cp nam /usr/local/bin but still the error .
i also tried with nam-1.14-x86_64.tar.gz but still no success.

if i dont use nam , then my box file runs successfully.
plz suggest me how to rectify this error.

Good day everyone,

I'm currently a student and as far as I'm aware I still need windows for some program I need, but I am going over to Linux.
(Thus I'm running Windows 8 at this moment)

Today I was going to install Ubuntu 14.04.01 alongside Windows 8, everything went well till I hit the 4th step (Installation type page) of the installation:

A message like follows showed:
"This computer currently has Debian GNU/Linux (Kali Linux 1.0.7) on it. What would you like to do?"

There are then 3 options available:
1) Install Ubuntu alongside Debian GNU/Linux (Kali Linux 1.0.7)
2) Replace Debian GNU/Linux (Kali Linux 1.0.7) with Ubuntu
3 and 4 is greyed out.
5) Something else (You can create resize partitions yourself, or choose multiple partitions for Ubuntu.

I just want to make sure what option to choose, I cant afford to lose all my data and windows.

Problem: Showing Kali Linux as current OS and not Windows 8.

Possible reason for showing Kali Linux as current OS:
I have a live CD of Kali Linux and ran it a few times in the past, but according to my knowledge it shouldn't have changed anything.

Maybe the 1st option is still the right one even though the current OS isn't listed right? Or the 3rd option is like a manual setting I guess.

Thanks for the time reading and helping!

Hi folks,

I have a very basic question for you if you don't mind. Whenever I open a terminal, I get this

Code:

 bash: /etc/profile.d/touchpad.sh: No such file or directory

followed by the usual prompt.

A few weeks ago I made a script called touchpad.sh, which would run whenever I opened a terminal. In the end, I deleted it because it wasn't doing what I wanted it to do. But some file is clearly still pointing to it. I've searched high and low for the source of this error, i.e. some reference to touchpad.sh, but I cannot find it. I've looked in ~/.bashrc ~/.profile and a few other places I can't remember offhand that I found on the Internet. Can anyone tell me where this reference is most likely to be? While it doesn't cause any problems and I can still use the terminal without a problem, it's a bit annoying and considering the amount of time I've spent trying to solve this problem, I'd be most grateful if someone point me in the right direction.

I'm running Sparky Linux (Debian Jessie) 64-bit (XFCE install) with Enlightenment Desktop on Lenovo T420.

Thank you in advance.

I'm learning about Linux, started yesterday. I have a question which didn't clear from the book and Google. The question is what is the difference between ./ and / in terminal? I'm asking this because when i give command for example - ./home/yogesh/Desktop/Books it is showing bash: ./home/yogesh/Desktop : No such file or directory but on removing the dot it's showing /home/yogesh/Desktop/Books: Is a directory.
Again on giving command like /Desktop it showing /Desktop :No such file or directory but on adding dot before / it is giving ./Desktop: is a directory.
What is the difference between ./ and / ?
I'm sorry if i asked something foolish but I have to know it anyway. Thankyou in advance and sorry for my bad English.

Hi,
I am very new to linux, and frankly I do not know a whole lot about computers in general, as I'm entirely self taught, and that was all on windows. I really like the idea and concept of linux and ubuntu, and am in the process of learning. I have recently installed Ubuntu 8.04 LTS on an ex Vista computer at work (upon the urging by the boss). I can give more information on the system if needed. However, I think the problem may not be with the system. This is what I got. I installed the o/s and started downloading the updates from the list. As I tried to install Samba and Wine, all of a sudden things started to become complicated. As I'm doing this at work, and everyone is excited to 'play' with this new o/s, someone tried to download limewire as well, when I was away. I didn't see the error messages at that point, but they apparently had some message about java, and tried to shut everything down. Now when I came back, I get this message:

E: dpkg was interrupted you must manually run 'dpkg -- configure - a' to correct.
Problem E: _cache->open()failed

So, not knowing much about linux and even less about using the terminal, I did open the terminal, and typed in: dpkg--configure-a and hit enter. Then it tells me that that command is not found.

I have followed some other posts that deal with this problem, however, all the remedies that worked for them did not work for me. I could use some help, please. My other option is to just reinstall the o/s all over and start new. Thank you.

I just recently installed a server version of the Ubuntu distribution of linux and i can't seem to get the web and file services running any thoughts

i m running file following tcl script but terminal shows nothing no error no nam file nothing

Hi!

I am running into a problem as stated in the title. I currently run Windows 8.1 on a Asus S300CA notebook. Not too long ago I installed and shortly after uninstalled Ubuntu 14.04 by simply deleting the partitions via Windows and recovering the original Windows Boot by running command prompt: "bootrec.exe /fixmbr" ... which consequently seemed to get rid of the grub loader.

Now I like to install Elementary Luna, but while installing the boot loader an error message pops up saying that the 'grub-efi' package fails to install into /target/.

After some research and not being able to find too much on the subject, I created an extra '/boot/grub/efi' partition of 100MB. Thereby selecting 'sda5' to mount/install the boot loader in that particular directory/partition. This has not worked and produced the same error message.

* Quick start disabled in Windows 8.1
* Running 'Try Elementary Lunar', the wifi hardware is detected but no signals are picked up, nor can I seem to connect to my landlord's router using their SSID (Just in case someone suggests doing something in the terminal requiring an internet connection.)

What to do? Your help is much appreciated.

* Edit: I just realized there is an entire forum dedicated to making Linux run on notebooks, laptops and netbooks. Mods, feel free to move this message.
