Hey, friend. I also experienced this. It appears that an update in January 2012 broke the necessary symlink. It does not appear to be a Mac specific issue.

From the command line:

Hey friends, great script! I have been utilizing them in conjunction with an Ubuntu Remix I maintain. The remix is Ubuntu Lucid with updated Firefox among other things and three addons...

I am also quite interested in if it will do Skype video calls? The specs indicate webcam, microphone, and speakers, and Skype capability can be a make or break feature in a netbook. Please include...

If Ubuntu did not exist, my choice would be either Linux Mint Debian Edition or straight Debian. For either one you would need to be well versed in Linux (as you indicated you are.) One might say...

Thanks for the comment, friend. However, Hardy/8.04 is what I had before I installed Lucid/10.04 as a reinstall / upgrade. In preparation, using gparted I shrunk my old ext3 /home partition and...

Friend, you are absolutely right in that to lose full functionality when upgrading you OS is a REGRESSION and should be unacceptable.

Hey friend. Thanks so much for your efforts on this. I really appreciate you making the time.

However, are you aware of your build failures on linux-ck - 2.6.32-25ck.43~ppa3 for lucid...

Hey friend, thanks so much for packaging these. All seems to work well for me running 64-bit lucid on my ASUS/AMD Quad-core 3.0 Ghz machine. Again, many thanks as you have made the CK/BFS...

I agree, friend. It would at least be nice if a dkms module would be available for this so it would automate the process. My plan is to lock my kernel version (frankly I am not even sure how many...

Hey friend (and fellow stlouisian), I also got the same error you mentioned when I tried to extract from nautilus but it worked fine when I entered the following from the command line:

Yes, friend. I have also experienced this bug. Please log into launchpad into the following bug report and indicate that "this bug affects me too" and add your own comments if you wish.

I am having the same problem, friend, as I have not yet been able to successfully activate internet connection sharing on my new karmic 64 bit install. Numerous how-tos include using ipmasq.

I would like to revise and extend my remarks on that last paragraph. By what I have read, I see no way to add the kernel ppa as a repository for updates, but it does look like those who have...

I installed this kernel on a 64-bit Jaunty install and had the same update manager. What I am doing and what I would advise is to do updates manually from now on (i.e. use Update Manager but look at...

Here are some helpful links for installing 2.6.30 on Jaunty. Reports that I have read indicate that this is workable in Jaunty, but frankly I would not recommend it on Hardy (or anything pre-Jaunty...

As a bug report on 4.5, the newest version of Parted Magic

If you please, how does one pass on "arguments" to the script at execution?

I tried sudo ./multicd-4.5.sh -bmv

and the -bmv appear to have been ignored.

Hello, friend. (directed to OP Alucard-sama)

Would you please do me a favor and post exactly

Thanks.

What worked was deleting the symbolic links by

sudo rm /etc/skel/.wine/dosdevices/z:

going to attempt to recreate them at this time....

Bump!! Same problem.

To: OP: Were you ever able to solve or workaround this? If
so, please advise what you did.

I am unable not only to install updates but also am unable to
install...

Solution:

Open a terminal and enter:

gconf-editor

You will then see some folders. Open the system folder.

Open the storage sub-folder.

Bump. Same problem. Anyone? Anyone?
