| Canon Pixma MP495 |

Looking to "convert" a family member to LL. However they are concerned as to whether they can get their Pixma MP495 to work ( scan & print) Also the original "non linux" software has utilities that instructs the Pixma to clean and maintain the jets on the ink cartridges and then carry out print test routines. - Does anyone know whether the linux package for these Canon "all in ones" has the same maintenance options for keeping the cartridges clean etc? Thanks.

| Serial ports to IP |

I have a need to be able to map a serial port to an IP address. The situation is a Linux lite machine connected via USB to a GPS, this machine is connected to a router via Ethernet, a laptop is connected to this router via WiFi. The laptop needs to get the GPS data via an IP port. In windows this can be done using virtual serial port emulator. The laptop is not a problem, the Linux lite machine on the Ethernet is where I need a solution. Have tried without success to use serial port to network proxy.. Any ideas please?

i, im trying to install last driver omega form amd and the log show this error .
"NOTE: If your system has logged the missing packages required for installation, install them in the order as per the log file to resolve package-dependency issues.
fglrx installation requires that the system has kernel headers. /lib/modules/4.0.0-linuxlite/build/include/linux/version.h cannot be found on this system.
Install kernel headers using the command apt-get install linux-headers-4.0.0-linuxlite."
the headers are already installed , this the question ?

A script for the thunar custom action that displays the file permissions and can change them.
Technicaly, it will work with directories but will not change them recursively. The files and directories inside will remain unchanged.
Also it works only for a single file.
This is not something I would recommend to someone who doen't understand file permissions.
Be carefull about symbolic links! Never use this on them! chmod changes the permissions of the pointed-to file.

| Installing Adobe Reader in Linux Lite - When Nothing Else Will Do! |
|

Hello, All!
I recently had to fill out some online fillable PDF forms, totalling almost twenty pages worth. (Back in the day, I didn't fill out NEARLY that many pages to get one of the highest US security clearances available, so go figure!)
I tried Evince, but it doesn't seem to handle fillable forms at this time. The folks at Evince are working on it, but until they figure it all out, it seems as if there are instances (usually government forms) when nothing else but Adobe Reader will do.
Fortunately, as of this date, Adobe Reader is still in the Ubuntu repositories. In a terminal window [CTRL-ALT-T],
Code: sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ precise partner"
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install acroread
If it's removed from the repositories at some later date, for now, it can also be found here. Again, in a terminal window:
Code: cd ~/Downloads && wget http://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/unix/9.x/9.5./en/AdbeRdr9.5.5-1_i386linux_enu.deb
sudo gdebi AdbeRdr9.5.5-1_i386linux_enu.deb
This will download the .deb into the '~/Downloads' folder. From there, the terminal will ask for confirmation, and will then install it if you answer 'y'.
Hope this helps...

Did an install today dual boot. Its a generic desktop, I believe its an AMD dual core, 3gb ram and 500gb HD. Everything installed very smoothly, no glitches at all. After a few reboots/shut-downs now it wants to hang on restart into Linux. It will be blackscreen and you see the cursor and it does nothing. It doesn’t do it every time but it does it enough its an issue. You see the feather and do the log in and then it hangs. Any suggestions welcomed.
