Error with Speedtouch install - Ubuntu


Recommended Posts

I know that there are loads of topics on here and I HAVE searched the forums for help, but nothing seems to. I have a script which i'm using to install my Speedtouch 330 Silver USB modem. The script run perfectly, I entered my VPI/VCI number and my username and password to connect to my ISP. However, when it goes to configure the driver, it gives me an error on line 271 i believe. Any ideas as to what this error is pointing too? Oh and i'm using Ubuntu 5.04.

The files that I'm using can be found at http://speedtouchconf.sourceforge.net/

Thanks, KitCh

Fixed the problem. When I was checking through the error file I noticed that the error was with the file 'configure'. So investigating this I realised that I hadn't made the file executable. Once I did this, the file run perfectly and I'm now online with linux! w00 w00

I have never used Ubuntu, but I think that when you do an update, it should be included. The only exception would be if it hasn't been updated in the Ubuntu repositories yet. Not sure if there are extra repos that might contain Firefox 1.5

If desperate, you can download and install from the Mozilla site, but this would be outside of your package manager, and therefore not available to be updated automatically.

Have you tried updating your entire system yet?

Yeh, I've updated and i'm now currently @ 28% of upgrading the distro and I managed to work that out with a little help from the intraweb. Linux is alot easier when you have the net, everything you want to know/need to know you can find on the net! Oh and for the record, I might be in this section alot in the next few days/weeks so be prepared :p

Well I only installed Hoary yesterday so i'm not too sure what you mean by "Maybe we should change the WM to PWM or something like that..."

Well i'm not 'fixing' anything at the moment i'm just upgrading to Ubuntu Breezy and once this is complete i'll start with the tweaking and that. :yes:

Well, in Linux, the GUI is independent of the OS. You can run all the same apps in Gnome (Ubuntu's default) that you can in KDE, IceWM, PWM, e17, Fluxbox, etc.

So, if you aren't quite happy with the performance or features of oen WM, you can just change.

It is a continuation of the PrivateWin10 project. By leveraging advanced kernel-level protections, MajorPrivacy creates a secure environment where user data and system integrity are fully safeguarded. Unlike traditional tools, MajorPrivacy introduces innovative protection methods that ensure mounted encrypted volumes are only accessible by authorized applications, making it the first and only encryption solution of its kind. MajorPrivacy – Ultimate Privacy & Security for Windows key features Process Protection – Isolate processes to block interference from unauthorized apps, even with admin privileges. Software Restriction – Block unwanted apps and DLLs to ensure only trusted software runs. Revolutionary Encrypted Volumes Secure Storage – Create encrypted disk images for sensitive data. Exclusive Access – Unlike traditional tools, only authorized apps can access mounted volumes—blocking all unauthorized processes. File & Folder Protection – Lock down sensitive files and prevent unauthorized access or modifications. Advanced Network Firewall – Control which apps can send or receive data online. DNS Monitoring & Filtering – Track domain access and block unwanted sites (Pi-hole compatible filtering coming soon).

Enhanced Privacy – Stops Windows & apps from collecting unnecessary data. Perfect for privacy-conscious users, IT pros, and anyone who wants total system control. Major Privacy 0.98.3 Beta changelog: This release of MajorPrivacy introduces several important improvements, bug fixes, and optimizations. The resource access rules engine has been enhanced to include the user as an additional parameter, enabling finer-grained access control. CPU usage has been reduced in both the user interface and background service, improving overall performance. The ImBox feature has been updated to avoid modifying container file timestamps when accessing secure encrypted volumes. Firewall rule handling has been improved for Store Apps on Windows 23H2 and later versions, increasing compatibility and reliability. A critical issue has been resolved in ImBox.exe that affects the mounting of older encrypted volumes; users should use a previous build to recover data and then recreate the volumes using this or a later version. Additionally, several interface and functionality bugs have been addressed: translations now load correctly, the Data Editor’s tree view now functions properly across multiple .dat files, and the Execution Monitor displays entries as expected when a time filter is applied. The “Add to Group” menu now correctly lists all available groups, and folder creation is no longer incorrectly permitted under Directory Listing and Read-only actions.

    • Hi there! Great question and yes, the Twenty Twenty-Four theme (TT4) + Gutenberg does have a few quirks when it comes to spacing and columns. To reduce the spacing between the image and the text in a two-column layout, here are a few things to try:  1. Adjust Block Spacing (Direct Method) Click on the Column Block (the outer wrapper that holds both your image and text). In the right sidebar, under "Block" > "Dimensions", look for the "Block spacing" setting (sometimes called “Gap”). Reduce the value (in px, em, or %) to tighten the space between elements inside that column. 2. Use Padding & Margin Controls Click on the Image block, and then the Text block individually. Under “Dimensions”, adjust the Margin of the Image or Text block (especially bottom or top margin) to reduce extra white space. Try setting margins to 0 or a small number like 8px. 3. Use Group Block (Optional) If the spacing controls aren’t behaving: Wrap the image + text inside a Group block. Then apply padding/margin settings to the inner blocks for better control.
