			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Unfortunately, there is no 64 Bit package for the Citrix client 11. So, it is a smaller challange to install the client using 32 bit libraries. There are a couple of nice tutorials on the net. The one which helped me most was the <a href="http://icanhaslinux.com/2009/02/02/howto-install-citrix-ica-client-on-ubuntu-810-64-bit/" target="_self">how to by I can has linux</a>. Basically it describes, that one should download the current 32 Bit Linux client from the <a href="http://www.citrix.com/English/ss/downloads/details.asp?downloadId=3323&amp;productId=186&amp;c1=sot2755&amp;c2=ost1349860" target="_self">Citrix Download Page</a>. After running the basic installation you&#8217;ll need to download the <a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/i386/libmotif3/download" target="_self">Motif 32Bit Libraries,</a> extract its files using <em>ar</em> and copy its libs to /usr/lib32 on your Ubuntu system.</p>
<p>But I still had a few issues installing the client: A symbolic link called <em>libXm.so.4</em> was missing in the first place. To fix that, I did the following:</p>
<pre>cd /usr/lib32
sudo ln -s libXm.so.3.0.2 libXm.so.4</pre>
<p>Now, I was able to start the client: <em>/usr/lib/ICAClient/wfcmgr</em></p>
<p><strong>Trouble connecting via SSL</strong></p>
<p>But when I tried to connect to a SSL Host, the connection broke telling me that To fix this, 2 steps are required. <a href="http://www2.slac.stanford.edu/computing/windows/services/citrix/linux_client.htm" target="_self">Download the certification files</a>. Now, move the files to /usr/lib/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts or whatever the installation directory of your client installation is.</p>
<p>After that, Citrix client and connecting SSL hosts worked like a charm.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>During the past few weeks I extended <a href="http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/">gedit</a> by several little plug-ins that I needed to have for my daily developer work. Now, I merged all those to one single configurable plug-in called gedittools.</p>
<p>It comes along with the following features:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>XML highlighting:</strong> After a double click on a XML-tag, the complete tree inside the selected tag will be highlighted. Depending on depth different colors will be used.</li>
<li><strong>Selection highlighting: </strong>After a double click on any word, all occurrances of the selected word will be highlighted throughout the whole current document.</li>
<li><strong>Search selection count: </strong>After a double click on any word, all occurrances of the selected word will be counted and the sum will be displayed in the status bar of the document.</li>
<li><strong>Launch meld to compare files: </strong>A button is added to the toolbar of gedit to allow launching meld. Therefore a screen will be displayed: It allows selection of a file which will be compared to the current active file in gedit.</li>
</ul>
<p>The plug-in is configurable: You can choose which plug-in you want to use. To make use of the meld launcher feature, an installation of meld is required. Refer to the README file for details.</p>
<p>If you want to use the plug-in, feel free to download it at github: <a href="http://github.com/mmuell23/mmuell23" target="_blank">http://github.com/mmuell23/mmuell23</a></p>
<p><strong>To install from git:</strong></p>
<pre>git clone http://github.com/mmuell23/mmuell23.git
cp -r mmuell23/gedittools/* ~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins</pre>
<p>Activate plug-in in gedit preferences and configure it as you wish.</p>
<p><strong>Install from zip File:</strong></p>
<p>There is also a ZIP file, which will not (always) include latest bug fixes: <a href="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/gedittools.zip" target="_blank">Download as ZIP</a></p>
<p>Extract all files and copy to <em>~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins</em></p>
<p>Activate plug-in in gedit preferences and configure it as you wish.</p>
<p><strong>Update May 15:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Bug fix in search result counter: All words and characters are now being count correctly</li>
<li>Bug fix in XML highlighter: Closing Tags at line ends are now being treated correctly</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, after I could <a href="/blog/count-search-results-in-gedit/">count words in a gedit document</a> based on a selection I made, I decided to add another missing feature:</p>
<p>I needed a diff tool to compare two files that are currently opened in gedit. Unfortunately, gedit doesn&#8217;t come along with these kind of features. So, another plug-in was needed.</p>
<p><strong>Meldlauncher</strong></p>
<p>What it does? It simply starts the open source diff &amp; merge tool <a href="http://meld.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">Meld</a> using two documents opened in gedit. That&#8217;s why I called it meldlauncher. Therefore, if you want to use meldlauncher, you will need to have Meld installed. On Ubuntu do something like this:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install meld</pre>
<p>If there are only two documents opened in gedit, meldlauncher will launch Meld and pass those two files to it. If there are more than two documents opened, meldlauncher will open a selection dialog from which you can easily choose the document to compare the current document with.</p>
<p>I moved both the counter plug-in and the meldlauncher plug-in to Github. Feel free to grab it from there:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Update May 5:</strong><br />
Count results are now being displayed in the Status Bar instead of an alert window. Also, there were a couple of bug fixes. Feel free to download the new version at the provided download link below or at <a href="http://github.com/mmuell23/mmuell23">github</a>!</p>
<p>Lately I was looking for a small but missing feature in <a href="http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/" target="_blank">gedit</a>: I needed to be able to count all occurrances of a selected word. This is a standard feature in many other editors such as Notepad++ in the Windows world, for example. However, I didn&#8217;t come across a solution on the net, so I decided to write a little plug-in myself.</p>
<p><strong>What it does:</strong> After marking a word the plug-in counts all occurrances of the selection in the current document. It adds a new button to the toolbar and an entry to the menu right in the &#8220;Search&#8221; section. On top of that you may trigger counting the selection by hitting &#8220;CTRL+SHIFT+F&#8221;.<span style="text-decoration: line-through;"> A small pop-up window will appear and show the results of the search.</span> The results will be displayed in the status bar of the window.</p>
<p><strong>How to use it:</strong> Simply mark a word, and have a look at the statusbar: The number of search results will be displayed there.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/counted_elements.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-375" title="Plug-in to count occurrances of selection in current document" src="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/counted_elements.png" alt="" width="322" height="106" /></a></p>
<p>If you find it useful, feel free to download the plug-in here:<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Heute Morgen installierte ich das neue Ubuntu 10.04 Beta in einer Virtuellen Maschine.</p>
<p>Funktionierte wunderbar, bis auf die Tatsache, dass sich die Maschine bei der Installation der MySQL Gui Tools wohl ein wenig verschluckte. Jedenfalls installierte sich das Paket mit seinen &#8220;Kindern&#8221; mysql-query-browser und mysql-admin nicht korrekt.</p>
<p>Deinstallieren und neu installieren ließ es sich auch nicht. Es brach mit folgendem Fehler ab:</p>
<pre>Entferne mysql-admin ...
dpkg (Unterprozess): kann installiertes post-removal-Skript nicht ausführen: Exec format error
dkpg: Fehler beim Bearbeiten von mysql-admin (--remove):
Unterprozess installiertes post-removal-Skript gab den Fehlerwert 2 zurück
</pre>
<p>Was tun? Viele Forenbeiträge liefen ins Leere und ich fand keinen Weg, die korrupten Pakte manuell zu löschen.</p>
<p>Die Lösung für dieses Problem war aber sehr leicht:</p>
<p>Es existieren im Verzeichnis /var/lib/dpkg/info Dateien mit Informationen zu allen installierten Pakten. Hier habe ich einfach alle Dateien rausgesucht, die für meine gesuchten MySQL Pakete relevant waren und sie aus dem Verzeichnis verschoben. Mit</p>
<pre>apt-get remove mysql-admin mysql-query-browser</pre>
<p>verschwanden dann auch alle Fehlermeldungen und Abhängigkeiten und ich konnte über</p>
<pre>apt-get install mysql-query-browser mysql-admin</pre>
<p>die Pakte sauber neu installieren.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Da nun endlich meine Entwicklermaschine eine Linux-Maschine wird (einen Mac gabs leider nicht&#8230;), musste ich Evolution dazu bringen, mit dem Firmeneigenen Exchange Server zu kommunizieren. Nach ein wenig Frickelei und Überraschungsmomenten, klappt es nun.</p>
<p>Und so gehts:</p>
<p><strong>1. Ein Exchange Konto erstellen in Evolution</strong></p>
<p>Zu allererst muss ein Exchange Account in Evolution (in meinem Fall in Version 2.2.8) erstellt werden. Für diesen sind folgende Einstellungen wichtig:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/screen1.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-363 alignnone" title="Setting 1" src="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/screen1-300x253.png" alt="" width="300" height="253" /></a></p>
<p>Domain und Username müssen, genau wie Server, durch die jeweiligen persönlichen Daten ersetzt werden und schon klappt der Zugriff auf die Emails. Wenn man den Server- oder Username nicht kennt, wird man in den Kontoeinstellungen von Outlook schnell fündig und kann die Einstellungen übernehmen.</p>
<p><strong>2. Zugriff auf das Adressbuch im Active Directory</strong></p>
<p>Für den Zugriff auf das globale Adressbuch im Active Directory muss eine weitere Einstellung getätigt werden. Dazu trägt man den Server, an welchem man sich angemeldet hat, im folgenden Screen als Setting ein. Herausfinden kann man diesen unter Windows in einer Eingabeaufforderung mit</p>
<pre>echo %LOGONSERVER%</pre>
<p><a href="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/screen2.png"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-364" title="Setting 2" src="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/screen2-300x252.png" alt="" width="300" height="252" /></a></p>
<p><strong>3. Zugriff auf Kalender anderer Nutzer</strong></p>
<p>Um auf freigegebene Kalender anderer Nutzer zugreifen zu können, wechselt man in die Kalenderansicht und wählt Datei -&gt; Kalender eines anderen Nutzers abonnieren</p>
<p>Es öffnet sich ein Screen, in welchem man aus dem globalen Adressbuch einen User suchen kann. Als default Ordnername steht &#8220;Calendar&#8221; in der Auswahlbox des zu abonnierenden Ordners. Das hat mir etwas Kopfzerbrechen bereitet, weil es schlicht nicht funktionieren wollte: Immer brach der Vorgang mit einer &#8220;Zugriff ist nicht erlaubt&#8221; Meldung ab. Je nach lokaler Installation des Exchange Servers scheint dieses Setting also nicht immer zu stimmen. In meinem Fall hat das Ersetzen durch das deutsche Wort &#8220;Kalender&#8221; den Effekt gebracht, dass ich auf freigegebene Kalender zugreifen konnte. Das englische &#8220;Calendar&#8221; blieb leider erfolglos.</p>
<p><strong>4. Zugriff auf öffentliche Ordner</strong></p>
<p>Einfacher verhält es sich mit den öffentlichen Ordnern. Diese können sehr einfach in der Email-Ansicht unter Ordner -&gt; Abonnements verwaltet werden und erscheinen dann in der Liste der verfügbaren Email-Ordner. Hier können auch öffentliche Kalender abonniert werden, welche dann automatisch im Kalender erscheinen.</p>
<p>Nach diesen vier einfachen Schritten steht mir Evolution nun als nahezu vollwertiger Outlookersatz zur Verfügung.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Skype und Linux ist so eine Sache: Nachdem seit einigen Releases nun auch Video verfügbar ist, gibt es immer wieder Probleme mit dem Pulseaudio Sound Server. Zumindest auf meinem Dell Studio 1537 Notebook. Bald gibts nen Mac. Baaald&#8230;.</p>
<p>Bis dahin: Mein Kampf mit Pulse ging heute in eine zweite Runde. Ubuntu 9.10 wollte nach einem Upgrade von 9.04 mein Mikrophon nicht mehr. Dass mein internes Mikrophon nicht geht mit Pulse, hab ich fast schon geschluckt. Aber mein externes hätte ich schon gerne. Diesmal habe ich mit (technischem) K.O. gewonnen. Technisch deshalb, weil immerhin mein externes Mikrophon nun wieder funktioniert, das interne aber immernoch nicht. Nun ja, sei es drum. Vielleicht hat einer von Euch ja die Lösung.</p>
<p>Hier nun die minimale Einstellung, die man treffen muss, um das Mikrophone zum Laufen zu bringen.</p>
<p>In einer Konsole den alsamixer starten.</p>
<pre>alsamixer</pre>
<p>Kurz noch &#8220;F4&#8243; gedrückt, um in die Capture Einstellungen zu gelangen. Was bei mir gefehlt hat, war die Einstellung &#8220;Capture&#8221; im Mic Mixer. Diese lässt sich mit Space toggeln. Selbiges muss für eine (oder beide) der Capture Items gemacht werden und schon klappts auch mit Skype.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/alsamixer.png"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-283" title="alsamixer" src="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/alsamixer-300x197.png" alt="alsamixer" width="300" height="197" /></a></p>
<p>Skype selbst muss sowohl für die Einstellungen des Microphone als auch Speakers auf PulseAudio gestellt sein. Schnell noch ein Testanruf zur netten Dame von Skype und, juhu, es geht.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/screenshot-options.png"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-284" title="screenshot-options" src="http://www.any-where.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/screenshot-options-300x189.png" alt="screenshot-options" width="300" height="189" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This morning I tried to use may very old and almost antique scanner <em>Agfa Snapscan e20</em> with my brand new Ubuntu 9.10 and xsane.</p>
<p>Surprise, surprise, it did not work. So, I started searching for a solution on Google, read myself through many boards and finally constructed this solution from all I read (and thought myself, of course *g*):</p>
<p>1. First of all you need the proprietary Windows driver of your Snapscan device. This can be found <a title="Download Windows driver" href="http://de.nodevice.com/driver/SnapScan_e20/get35652.html" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>2. The downloaded ZIP archive will contain a file called 2.0.0.9-e20.exe. You will need to extract all files from that exe to get a file called snap20.bin. But how do you do that? The file is not a self extracting ZIP archive. So, unzip does not work. In this case wine is your friend:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install wine</pre>
<p>Open the exe file with wine. Leave the initial screen open but do not follow the installation routine further on. Instead, copy the needed file from the temp directory of wine:</p>
<pre>sudo cp ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/temp/Drivers/snap20.bin /etc/sane.d/</pre>
<p>Now, close the installer.</p>
<p>3. Now edit the configuration file /etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf and add (or modify if present) that line:</p>
<pre>firmware /etc/sane.d/snape20.bin</pre>
<p>4. Start xsane and start scanning</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, I actually didn&#8217;t think about my WIFI-chipset when I bought my Dell Studio notebook: If Dell offers Ubuntu as an operating system along their products anyway, there should not be a driver problem when manually installing Ubuntu. After installing 8.04 and later 8.10 and 9.04 (32bit by accident), it worked out of the box: The Broadcom driver for the BCM4312 chipset was proprietary and I didn&#8217;t have a single problem.</p>
<p>Yesterday I decided to get rid of the 32 bit 9.04 version and install the Ubuntu 9.10 beta version. Installation worked fine, but after rebooting the system I saw that there was no wireless network connection at all. Running lsmod told me that the b43 module is running. However, it didn&#8217;t work: no network connection was shown, not even that it recognized my WIFI card.</p>
<p>After reading through several blogs and forums I finally got it running. This installation guideline might help you, too. Maybe the driver will be included / fixed in the final 9.10 version, but just in case it&#8217;s not, this might be a solution for you:</p>
<p><strong>1. Compile Broadcom driver<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Download the driver from the <a href="http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php" target="_blank">official Broadcom website</a> and follow the installation instructions in the README.txt.</p>
<p>After compiling the module and adding it via &#8220;modprobe&#8221; as described in the README.txt file, it already worked fine for me: The system connected to my local WIFI access point.</p>
<p><strong>2. Load driver on startup</strong></p>
<p>What didn&#8217;t work was the automatic disabling of the ssb module by adding it to the blacklist. The command lsmod still showed that the module was loaded even though it was added to the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf. Therefore, after a reboot of the system I still had no connection at all and had to manually modprobe wl again. Adding &#8220;wl&#8221; to the list in /etc/modules showed no effect.</p>
<p>Here is the solution I found on another forum (don&#8217;t find the URL anymore):</p>
<p>Add these 3 lines to /etc/rc.local:</p>
<pre>rmmod ssb
modprobe -r ssb
modprobe wl</pre>
<p>After a reboot, the network service now automatically took the newly installed driver.</p>
