Fixing Xsane under Ubuntu

Ok – If it doesn’t work,

Run

sane-find-scanner

then add the usb address to the end of:

/etc/sane.d/epson2.conf

Then to make the USB scanner available to normal users, give them rights to the USB port as found in the scan or just lsusb:

go to /dev/bus/

usb/002/002
(Might want to try /dev/bus/usb/003/002 as well if this bus no. confusion exists)
Right mouse click > properties > permissions
Allow Run for Group and Other Users.

Karmic!

At 2.37pm we started upgrdaing to Karmic Koala!

Impressions:

The download took around 7 hours (probably because the whole planet was upgrading at the same time)

Once installed and I had finished getting the wireless card to see my Hub (As I always have trouble with), the first thing I notice is that the graphics performance is drastically improved, the screen looks more crisp and multiple windows seem to slow the system down less!

I have high hopes for this Koala!

Popcorn Hour (PCH) and YAMJ, gotchas!

Ok I have just set up PCH with a YAMJ frontend and there are a few simple gotcha’s!

1) PCH doesnt like spaces in file names!
2) Map the PCH to itself as a network share (?)
3) Index Yamj to that share
4) run YAMJ on the PCH from the network share!
5) Put the index.htm into the root of your share.

…BLISS…

Kubuntu Fixing Blocked Updates

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I think I’ve been geeked!

I now know what a Green Sata Terabyte drive is and HDMI to VGA cable for our Popcorn Media Server!!!
