i'm trying to install the adobe air sdk in linux. i unzip the package downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/products/air/tools/sdk/ into a folder "AdobeAIRSDK", and add the /bin folder into the PATH environment variable. but when i tried to run the adl, it gives me the following error:
Error loading the runtime (/home/monuser/AdobeAIRSDK/bin/../runtimes/air/linux/Adobe AIR/Versions/1.0/Resources/nss3/None/libnss3.so: file too short)
what's the problem here and how do i get it fixed?
Are you trying to install on a 64-bit OS? Either way, Adobe has a KB on installation that might help.
Installing Adobe Air on Ubuntu 13.10
Install i386 libraries, that are required for successful installation and running of Adobe Air and air applications:
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libnss3-1d:i386 lib32nss-mdns libxml2:i386 libxslt1.1:i386 libcanberra-gtk-module:i386 gtk2-engines-murrine:i386
Install gnome-keyring:i386.
It can't be installed using apt-get as other i386 (at least at the moment of writing this), because of it's dependencies. So we'll need to download it and install manually. In fact, this is easy:
download deb-package using apt-get to /tmp:
cd /tmp
sudo apt-get download libgnome-keyring0:i386
extract deb-package into gnome-keyring subfolder (note version in the file name, it may be different):
sudo dpkg-deb -R libgnome-keyring0_3.8.0-2_i386.deb gnome-keyring
install library in the system by copying:
sudo cp gnome-keyring/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/
create symlinks so Adobe Air could see it:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0
Download Adobe Air installer from Adobe official site: http://helpx.adobe.com/air/kb/archived-air-sdk-version.html
Install Adobe Air using downloaded installer (don't forget to allow execution of the installer file):
chmod a+x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
Adobe Air should be installed successfully now! Now you may remove excess symlinks:
sudo rm /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0
sudo rm /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0

I'm learning how to compile the Linux kernel on Ubuntu. Following step by step, I encountered errors like this. There is no problem until
$ sudo make menuconfig
but sudo make doesn't work. I installed these libs.
sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libelf-dev
sudo apt-get install flex
sudo apt-get install bison
How can I include this header file?
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c/base.c:25:10: fatal error: aux.h: No such file or directory
25 | #include "aux.h"
The aux.h file should be in the directory drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c, you can go to the path to check whether there is the file and if not, you can redownload it.
You said you are using a Virtual Machine, so I assume Windows is your host. Windows doesn't allow files name aux*, but there are ways around it, e.g rename in WSL or cygwin... and perhaps a virtual machine will work too. See here for more information:

Nodejs version 4 has been released and installed on my windows machine.
I'm trying to install the package trough yum on redhat but i'm not getting the latest version.
i tried: sudo yum install -y nodejs but the lastest 4.0 version is not installed.
How do i install nodejs 4.0 on a redhat machine?
NodeJS 4.X for EL7 repos located at https://rpm.nodesource.com/pub_4.x/el/7/
To install with yum change baseurl in nodesource-el.repo file to:
baseurl=https://rpm.nodesource.com/pub_4.x/el/7/$basearch
/etc/yum.repos.d/nodesource-el.repo content:
[nodesource]

You can compile and install from its source.
ver=4.0.0
wget -c https://nodejs.org/dist/v$ver/node-v$ver.tar.gz #This is to download the source code.
tar -xzf node-v$ver.tar.gz
cd node-v$ver
./configure && make && sudo make install
https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/wiki/Installation
Try npm install n -g and then n latest for downloading it with this version manager.
Edit:
The official distributions are managed by Nodesource. For RHEL the setup is supposed to be (take from the repo):
Current instructions for installing, as listed on the Node.js Wiki:
Note that the Node.js packages for EL 5 (RHEL5 and CentOS 5) depend on the EPEL repository being available. The setup script will check and provide instructions if it is not installed.
Run as root on RHEL, CentOS, CloudLinux or Fedora:
curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup | bash -
Then install, as root:
yum install -y nodejs
But be aware that 4.0 is currently not in their rpm distribution
This was my solution and it worked:
Distrubution url: Distr: https://nodejs.org/dist/v4.2.1/node-v4.2.1.tar.gz (v4.2.1 for now)
Unpack the package (tar Jxf node-v4.2.1.tar.xz).
Some package could be too old and will cause problems during installation.
cd to the unpacked file and run ”./configure”. if the warming “C++ compiler too old, need g++ 4.8 or clang++ 3.4” is displayed you need to execute the following commands:
curl http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/cern/scl/slc6-scl.repo > /etc/yum.repos.d/slc6-scl.repo
rpm --import http://ftp.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/51/i386/RPM-GPG-KEYs/RPM-GPG-KEY-cern
yum install -y devtoolset-3
And to utilize it without having to set environment variables execute this command:
scl enable devtoolset-3 bash
Now restart the process:
./configure
make
make install
You can try this solution.
First, update software repository to the latest versions:
yum -y update
Intall "Development Tools". It's a group of tools for compiling software from sources.
yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools"
Move to /usr/src directory - the usual place to hold software sources.
cd /usr/src
Now, we pick the latest compressed source archive from Node.js website at http://nodejs.org/download/.
wget http://nodejs.org/dist/v4.2.4/node-v4.2.4.tar.gz
tar zxf node-v4.2.4.tar.gz
cd node-v4.2.4
./configure
make
make install
My Flash plugin just won't work for Firefox on Linux Mint.
I am running Linux Mint 14 Nadia 64bit.
Downloaded firefox-27.0.1.tar.bz2
Extracted it
Ran ./firefox it works fine
Downloaded install_flash_player_11_linux.x86_64.tar.gz
Extracted it
Copied the plugin: cp libflashplayer.so
/home/gary/.mozilla/plugins/
Copied the Flash Player Local Settings configurations: sudo cp -r
usr/* /usr
Generated dependency lists for Flash Player: ldd
/home/gary/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
Plugin still doesn't work.
Any help would be appreciated.
start with a command in terminal
sudo apt-get alien - it is a converter worth using .
For rpm to deb use code sudo alien <file-name>.rpm
for tar.gz use code sudo alien -k <file-name>.tar.gz
for tar.bz2 use code sudo alien -d <file-name>.tar.bz2
for tgz use code sudo alien --to-deb ~/<file-name>.tgz
good luck .
~ $sudo alien -d firefox-27.0.1.tar.bz2
wait
double click new deb file
Silverlight
And download chrome this plugin rocks it will enable flash 15 ...
Pepperflash
sudo apt-get install mint-flashplugin
This works from terminal.
I want to install a mysql workbench binary locally on my linux machine because I don't have sudo rights. I did this when I installed python using --prefix. Can this also be done with mysql workbench?
Yes, you can, provided that you are willing to compile Workbench from sources. You are advised however that you'll need sudo rights to install its compilation dependencies. Here are the steps:
Download Workbench's sources from the official download site. You should download the version tagged "Generic Linux (Architecture Independent), Compressed TAR Archive".
Uncompress the downloaded source file. From the linux terminal:
$ tar -zxvf mysql-workbench-whatever.tar.gz
Move to the directory with Workbench's source code:
cd mysql-workbench-whatever
Read the INSTALL file located in this directory to find out the required packages that you would need to install in order to compile Workbench. For Ubuntu here's the command to install them:
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool libzip-dev libxml2-dev libsigc++-2.0-dev libglade2-dev libgtkmm-2.4-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libgl1-mesa-glx mesa-common-dev libmysqlclient15-dev uuid-dev liblua5.1-dev libpixman-1-dev libpcre3-dev libgnome2-dev libgtk2.0-dev libpango1.0-dev libcairo2-dev python-dev libboost-dev
Run autogen.sh with the path to where you want Workbench installed:
$ ./autogen.sh --prefix=~/bin/wb52
(The above command will get your Workbench's binaries in the directory bin/wb52 within your home directory once compiled). Just change the destination dir to whatever you like.
Compile and install MySQL Workbench:
$ make install
This will take some time (maybe half an hour depending on your system). If you have more than one CPU core available you should use, for instance:
$ make -j3 install
and this will use three cores for compilation (adjust the number of cores to whatever you find reasonable for your system).
Once compiled you can run Workbench's executable that will be located inside a bin directory within the path you set in step 5.
Have a lot of fun!
I created native installers for my air application successfully under MacOS and Windows.
With Ubuntu 10 I am able to create a .deb package, but when I launch it opens the Ubuntu software center showing error:
Dependency is not satisfiable: adobeair (>= 2.5.0.0)
I thought native installer should be able to download the proper adobe air version if available (2.5.1 seems available as deb package). If I install air for linux 2.5.1 from adobe website my application launches fine.
Did anyone experience the same issue?
Thanks in advance for any help

Unfortunately, many years late "Adobe AIR for Linux is no longer supported." following what adobe page says. Using the "AIR archive" is possible to get unsupported versions, the 2.6.0 version is the most recent available. If you need to install a program that require a newer version of it, you might go to Virtual box with a Windows guest.
For version 2.6.0 the recommend steps for Ubuntu 16.10 are:
for 32bit machine
wget -O adobe-air_i386.deb http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/AdobeAir/adobeair_2.6.0.2_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i adobe-air_i386.deb
sudo apt-get install -f && rm adobe-air_i386.deb
for 64bit machine
wget -O adobe-air_amd64.deb http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/AdobeAir/adobeair_2.6.0.2_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i adobe-air_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -f && rm adobe-air_amd64.deb
The recommend steps for Ubuntu 16.04/14.04/12.04/Linux Mint 18/17/13 (both extracted from here):
wget -O adobe-air.sh http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/AdobeAir/adobe-air.sh
chmod +x adobe-air.sh;sudo ./adobe-air.sh
What version of the adobeair package is available from the Ubuntu repositories?
A .deb is just an archive and the dependencies have to be available from the repositories the system is configured to use. It can't resolve the dependency by downloading it from some specific location you know of but the system is not configured to use.
If the needed version of the package is not available from the Ubuntu repositories then your only options are to reconfigure the system to use an additional repository that does have the needed dependency before you try to install your package, or download and manually install the dependency before you try to to install your package.
Try to install itdpkg -i --force-architecture adobeair.deb
