Thread: System messed up after enabling DVD playback.

-

a friend running ubuntu 9.10 asked me how enable dvd playback. directed him to link, , told him use these commands:
code:
sudo apt-get install libdvdread4  sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
he tried this, , ran problems:
i ran problem... entered "apt-get" command above , got nfs-common error. can add/remove programs, update out seeing errors occuring. looked bug on ubuntuforums.org, don't quite see how "fix" installed. there way go date when error didn't occur? or there way have errors evaluated (system check) fixes recommended?
i asked him copy of error, , sent me these:

code:
here copy of listing details of error message while attempting openoffice's data management (like ms access)  --------------------------    adding system user `statd' (uid 116) ...  adding new user `statd' (uid 116) group `nogroup' ...  useradd: cannot lock /etc/passwd; try again later.  adduser: `/usr/sbin/useradd -d /var/lib/nfs -g nogroup -s /bin/false -u 116 statd' returned error code 1. exiting.  dpkg: error processing nfs-common (--configure):  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1  dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of nfs-kernel-server:  nfs-kernel-server depends on nfs-common (>= 1:1.0.8-1); however:  package nfs-common not configured yet.  dpkg: error processing nfs-kernel-server (--configure):  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured  setting libservlet2.4-java (5.0.30-8ubuntu3) ...  no apport report written because error message indicates followup error previous failure.  setting libhsqldb-java (1.8.0.10-2ubuntu1) ...    setting openoffice.org-java-common (1:3.1.1-5ubuntu1) ...    setting openoffice.org-base (1:3.1.1-5ubuntu1) ...    errors encountered while processing:  nfs-common  nfs-kernel-server

Valutazione Template - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

salve, prima di installare joomla, vorrei porvi tre semplici domande: 1) l'ultima versione in italiano di joomla, supporta questo template prodotto da gavik? loro scrivono che non è un semplice template, ma una vera e propria suite, ma vorrei una vostra opinione. qui sono descritte le funzioni della suite. 2) per sfruttare gli elementi che si vedono nella pagina, ad esempio quello in alto sinistra dove scorrono le notizie, occorre installare qualche componente aggiuntivo? 3) futuri upgrade alla piattaforma joomla, potranno inficiare il funzionamento o la compatibilità del template? vi ringrazio anticipatamente della disponibilità. 1) non vedo nulla di particolare se non una miriade di posizioni per blocchi 2) è un modulo se non sbaglio pagamento, ma adesso non ricordo bene 3) no. ti ricordo che devi installare joomla  1.0.12 Board index Joomla!
