F.A.Q

How to test this distribution ?

 * You have three methods :
 * Burn a DVD (see page "installation")
 * Install a minimum of 4GB USB Flash Drive (see page "installation")
 * Test in a "Virtual Machine"

This method does not achieve the nominal performance of the system but can be seen in operation without installing anything on your computer. This is also true if you launch the DVD or USB key in session "live" only.

Use of a virtual machine
We recommend that you use the VirtualBox software as it runs on all hardware platforms, and more is Free Software.
 * For beginners working environments :
 * Windows, start by reading Installing Ubuntu inside Windows,
 * Mac : start by reading Running Windows 7 on MacOSX or seeing this Tutorial video
 * Linux and Co : start by reading installation/appliances virtualbox


 * Features of the virtual machine to test Emmabuntüs :
 * Set 640 MB RAM (1 GB minimum for Emmabuntüs 2)
 * Allocate ( 3 + 1 ) * ISO size for the virtual disk, because the installation of distribution holds 3 * ISO size
 * Take a fixed-size disk, it avoids surprises of lack of space during testing
 * Book quarter of the memory on your graphics card


 * To enable this "hosting" the physical machine (computer) must have at least 2GB of RAM and of course more than ( 3 + 1 ) * ISO size GB free hard disk.

Use in live mode
Distributions Emmabuntüs require at least 1 GB of RAM to run in live mode, otherwise you will get a login screen at launch, and you can not log in due to lack of RAM space to create user data. In order to operate a Emmabuntüs in live mode with less than 1 GB of RAM on your machine, it is necessary to use persistent mode with a virtual disk on USB 1 GB. To use this mode, you must create your USB key for example with Multisystem or USB Creator.

For what type of computers ?
We have already installed our distribution on very different types of machines, including low power to our tests, for example :


 * Netbooks: Asus eeePC 701 (an early model with disk SSD) and 1001PX (one of the latest models but with classic 160 GB HDD)
 * A mini PC with an Intel Atom 410 + 1GB of RAM (in dual boot with Ubuntu)
 * A classic IBM Thinkpad T60 laptop (in dual boot with XP)
 * Different Desktop NEC and HP for years 2005 - 2007

These workstations are used daily in production.

What is the password default distributions ?
The default password is : avenir only applies for installation by the Emmaus communities.

In Live mode or virtual machine under no password password is required. If it is asked is that the machine has less than 1 GB of RAM (eg 512MB). Because of this limitation, Emmabuntüs 2 can not finish its startup RAM. If with 1GB of RAM, the password is requested please report this problem: contact

How to change the default password distributions ?
This is necessary to control the use of computers within the family. By default we create the administrator account with the name "emmabuntus" and the password "avenir", to change the password, please follow the steps below.

We recommend you visit the site Internet without fear (in french), to familiarize yourself with the new information technologies, or to read backgrounder on the desktop of your machine to understand the issues and risks that your children are exposed to a computer. And remember that even if you feel overwhelmed before the computer skills of your children, it is always your parents, and it is you who set the rules of use, and useful lives of the computer within the family circle.

Ubuntu, like all other operating systems family GNU/Linux is an inherently multi-user system. This means that you are not limited to a single user account in the operation of your computer. You can create multiple user accounts for each user of your computer, as well as for various uses.

What is a user account ? this is a collection of parameters relating to a particular profile. These parameters include the details of identity of a user (name, profile photo, etc..), Or the list of user groups which its account is part and many personal data (mailboxes, passwords, preferences of the software used, choice of theme desktop environment, etc..)

Multiply user accounts in a multi-user is a guarantee of safety. Take for example a typical family, two parents and two children. By creating a user account for each individual, it will be possible to set that parents can install new software, but not children, each person can configure their working environment, according to their tastes, needs and moods, each will have its own address book and its mailbox, unmixed with emails from other family members, some sensitive areas of the computer can be put out of reach of children.

To manage the various user accounts, Ubuntu includes the tool users-admin.

Find the tool for managing user accounts :
The tool users-admin is in the menu System → Administration and runs by selecting the menu item Users and Groups.



Manage your user account :


Once the program is executed, the interface opens with a list of user accounts. By default, all user accounts can not be changed, except the current account, since its current session, a user can change settings related to their account only.

Select your own user account in the list and press the Properties to access advanced information. The tasks of modifications you can apply to your own account are limited: you can only change your password. Other administrative tasks on your behalf can be made by administrators.

Change their password :
The utility users-admin allows a user to change his password session. It is this that is used for the opening of the session user.

To change this password:

For more details on the management accounts and user groups, see the full article on the site Ubuntu (in french).
 * 1) Press  [Edit]  which lies to the right of the title Password;
 * 2) In the new window that opens, enter your current password in the field Current Password;
 * 3) Then:
 * 4) * Check the Enter a password manually and manually enter a password of your choice in the box New Password. Repeat the same password in the box Confirmation or
 * 5) * Check the Generate a random password. A password is randomly generated. Memorize it;
 * 6)  (Optional - Administrator only) Check 'Do not ask for password to login' to allow this account to log on without entering a password. Only an administrator can enable or disable this feature on any account;
 * 7) Press  [Validate]  to save your changes.

Start default Windows when starting Grub
Open the file /etc/default/grub to it using one of the following lines depending on the file editor included in your distribution:

gksudo geany /etc/default/grub

gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub

Change the line GRUB_DEFAUT putting the symbolic name

GRUB_DEFAUT="Microsoft Windows XP (on /dev/sda1)"

Uncomment the next line to disable the graphical GRUB mode which can cause some problems with older generations of flat screens

No, you can record it but the registration is not done by clicking on the network name, and completing your WiFi key. If you made ​​as the system asks you at startup.

Here is the procedure to permanently store:







I can not change the background screen, the default wallpaper is reset after every reboot
In Emmabuntüs 10.04 management offices wallpaper is made by the software Wallpapoz, and make a substantive change to screen following the conventional method of Ubuntu does not work, because on the next reboot, Wallpapoz will overwrite your settings. To change the wallpaper of a desktop should start Wallpapoz -> Utilities submenu and replace the wallpaper with those desired. Wallpapers classic Ubuntu is in /usr/share/backgrounds.

This operation is not valid for all screens configuration because the startup script test the screen resolution, and depending on it changes the configuration file of Wallpapoz. To apply your new config for all screens resolutions you must copy your file 4 times here: ~/.Wallpapoz be the last change for example wallpapoz_ecran_16_9.xml file must be copied in wallpapoz_ecran_4_3.xml, wallpapoz_ecran_5_4.xml, wallpapoz_ecran_16_10.xml to apply your changes to the four screen sizes.

How to automatically log on Lemmabuntüs ?

Pysycache from the dock of the Lemmabuntüs don't start
This comes from a poor default configuration of the launcher and patch is available here.

Download the package, then try its execution, then you must restart the machine for the fix effective.

Tips for using Emmabuntüs 2 (12.04 LTS)
On some machines, Emmabuntüs 2 might freeze when started in Live mode. In such case, you should check if you are in one of the following situations :


 * DVD was not burned correctly
 * Not enough RAM space
 * Hardware compatibility issue

To clearly identify the root cause of the problem you need to press the Escape key when the loader screen is displayed, which will allow you to follow the various steps executed by the loader and to identify the reason of the freeze.

Bad DVD reading: If you see a message containing the word “initramfs“, the problem is certainly due to either a defective DVD reader, or a bad burning of the DVD irself. To check this kind of issue, please press the space bar when the Vitruvian Man pictogram is showing up, choose your language and validate. Then select the line “Check disk for defects” [Vérifier si le disque a des défauts] and wait for the end of the DVD analysis.



Memory shortage:

during the loading phase, if you see the message « user Emmabuntus does not exist » or if a login window does open in Life mode, then the machine may not have enough memory space. Remember that you need a minimum of 1GB of RAM in order to run correctly in Live mode. An alternative is to use an USB key with the activation of the persistent mode in order to use only 512 MB of RAM.

Hardware compatibility issues:

Some machines do not integrate correctly the following standards:


 * APIC
 * APM

The Linux kernel provides you with options to disable the functions which are not supported correctly. See the Common Kernel Options. It exits two methods to identify which option you need to deal with,


 * Display the loader messages, and decypher the latest messages before the freeze to understand wich option to chose.
 * Launch a search request on Internet with « Brand and Model of the machine + Ubuntu » keywords.

If you don't see an error message but get a black screen instead, you problem most probably comes from the graphic card. In this case you need to use the option « nomodeset ». This options as well as these disable the new display handler modes for the graphic cards.

Once you have identified the option to add during the DVD loading sequence, press on the space bar, select your language, press the F6 key and validate with the Entry key in order to select your option, then on Escape to exit from this menu, and then validate the Live mode start.



If the Live mode executes correctly, then you can install your system directly from this mode by clicking on the “Install Emmabuntus 12.04 LTS” disk icon on the desktop.

When the system reboot, you will face the same problem, and you need to modify directly the Emmabuntus loader. In order to do so, and if you have only one system installed on your machine, you need to press the Right Shift key (not the left one please) to display the GRUB menu at load time.



Press the “e” key to switch to editing mode, and manually add your option after the « quiet splash » one. In our example we have added the option “noapic”. Then press the F10 key to reload the system.



At this point, if everything goes well during the system launch, you can finalize the Ezmmabuntus post-installation, and then, before restarting the machine again, it is necessary to make the loader options persistent; Two methods to achieve this:

sudo leafpad /etc/default/grub
 * The classical method consists in editing the grub file. Open a terminal window and type the command :

then edit the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to add in there your option(s). For example : GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash noapic" Save the file and to make the change effective enter the commande sudo update-grub


 * The graphical method uses Boot-Repair. You can start it either by typing boot-repair in a terminal window, or by clicking on the « Mouse » in the top left of the screen to open the application menu. Type boot in the search area and then click on the Boot-Repair line.

Within the Boot-Repair window select the Advanced options (bottom left of the window) then the tab Grub options, click in the box Add a kernel option then select the proper option within the pop-up menu, and then Apply the change.



After the system installation the keyboard map is in QWERTY mode
To solve the problem of switching the keyboard map between QWERTY and AZETY, open a terminal window (press the Windows + T keys) : ibus-setup (if ibus-setup is not already installed enter : sudo apt-get install ibus) In the new window which opens, you go in the "Avancé" [“Advanced”] tab and click in the box "Utiliser la disposition clavier système" [“Use the system default keyboard”] Restart the computer to make the change effective.

Solution found on the Forum Ubuntu-Fr, and adapted for Xubuntu 14.0

How to avoid the QWERTY keyboard issue when installing Emmabuntüs 3
In order to avoid the keyboard QWERTY bug during the Emmabuntüs 3 installation, as well as the Xubuntu 14.04 and probably also Ubuntu 14.04, we suggest that you follow this method during the installation process : during the startup from the DVD, when the Vitruvian Man pictogram is showing up (see below) press the space bar, and then follow the procedure explained here : Emmabuntüs 3 Installation Instructions - Starting Up



If you don't press the Space bar when the Vitruvian Man pictogram is displayed, you are going to see a window similar to the one below, and starting from this point, we noticed that the installation engine has the tendency to map to a QWERTY keyboard instead of a AZERTY one, even if the French language and keyboard are chosen during the installation.



Computer with Nvidia graphic card freezes during installation or utilization of Emmabuntüs 3
Some Nvidia graphic cards – for example the C61 GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 – produce a system freeze when the screen saver is triggered either during the installation phase or during the regular use of the system.

To solve this problem during the install phase you need to start in LIVE mode, and then, before launching the install, disable the screen saver by opening a terminal window (press Windows + T keys) and executing the command pkill xscreensaver.

When the system reboot, you can also execute this command to disable the wallpaper during the post-installation phase, but it would be better to uninstall completely the screen saver. In fact, even when using the Nvidia proprietary drivers, the screen saver freeze problem is still there. To do so open a terminal window and execute the command sudo apt-get remove xscreensaver

Please note also that concerning these Nvidia graphic cards, it is highly recommended to use the proprietary drivers, otherwise some random freezes may occur with the Open source drivers.

After installation under VirtualBox, the display is no longer full screen size
After having installed Emmabuntüs 3 under VirtualBox, the virtual machine cannot manage the full screen size window.



In order to let VirtualBox handle correctly the full screen display, you must reinstall the optional extension of the virtual machine.

Within the VirtualBox application, click on the « Devices » button, then select « Install CD image for guest additions ».



This action mounts within the virtual machine a virtual disk containing additional extensions.

Open the file explorer (Press Windows+E keys) or  right click on mounting, then a right click in the folder and select « Open a terminal here ».





In this terminal window, type the command :

sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

Then enter the password and validate the installation with "Y".



When the install is complete, restart your vikrtual machine which should now use the full screen.



The Emmabuntüs contains too many software !!!
This us a very good point is made by many people, this is why we have incorporated in this version 3 profiles dock (Experienced, Beginners, Children) by language. This does not delete any program, but allows for each user profile to have its environment, and may if it wishes to change its Dock without altering the profiles of two other docks.

To change the profile of the Dock :





Here is an example for the sub menu Office :







Note : We made this choice to install too much software, because if we had proposed the installation of software to the card, we would have had enormous difficulties to dynamically update the docks, because that would require understanding how it, to sort of reverse engineering on the dock management, and any changes by the team of Cairo-Dock, we would have to redo everything. Given the size of current disks that represents an installation of 10 GB? But you are always free not to use all software in the distribution, and we will keep you no grudge, for that matter, for my part I never use Mr. Potato Head ;-)

See the incomplete list of software Emmabuntüs 2 or Emmabuntüs 3.

The management of docks in different languages
The Emmabuntüs 2 contains a set of basic dock for the following languages :


 * French
 * English
 * Spanish
 * Portuguese
 * German
 * Italian
 * Arabic

The dock fits the language of your system, and if you use your system for a language not supported by the Emmabuntüs 2, it will be in English.

How to change language in Emmabuntüs ?
If your language is not supported, you should be in English by default, or if your language is supported partially do the following:









Note: If your language is not in the list, do Maintenance -> Update Manager and update, or in a terminal window: sudo apt-get update



Note: If the language can not install, update your system, do Maintenance -> Update Manager, and update.







On tab "Regional Formats":





Now you just need to restart for the changes to take effect.



Note : All programs are not managed by the System, and for some of them it is necessary to go to the preferences of the software to change the language. All do not support as many languages ​​as the operating system, but if you think that the software has not your native language should have, then contact the developers and help for translation.

How to configure the parental control in Emmabuntüs ?
See the article for the How-To section of Kioskea

How to Emmabuntüs under LXDE ?

 * For 1.04 and later, follow the procedure below:

Launch from the dock in Expert mode: Utilities → Installation LXDE, or run this command in a terminal:

/opt/Lxde/install_lxde.sh

Disconnect and reconnect by selecting the LXDE or OpenBox environment in the selector at the bottom left of the login window


 * For versions prior to version 1.04 follow the procedure below:

To change the desktop manager, you must :

sudo apt-get install-y-qq lxde
 * Install LXDE package by clicking on this link apt://lxde to this address Tutoriel Ubuntu-LXDE (in French), which run the following command in a terminal :


 * Disconnect and reconnect by selecting the LXDE environment in the selector at the bottom left of the login window


 * When you restart the Dock Cairo-Dock is the bar management LXDE menus, but just go to the bar and do a right-click of the mouse, then "Preferences panel" and select Position, Edge, Top.

That now you know all about manipulation to ;-)



PS: for perfectionists: if you want the stop button on the bottom right at the dock, you must install : sudo apt-get install-y-qq lubuntu-default-settings

then put lubuntu-logout instead of xfce4-session-logout in control of the stop button (right-click and Edit), but it is only applied to the current profile at the Dock, so if you profile must change it again !

After installing Emmabuntüs a package is broken, and it blocks the updates or installations
Sometimes a packet is broken at the end of the installation : it is often a codec pack Adobe Flash.

This is due to the activation of packages third (fluendo mp3) during installation it is preferable to do not check, as they will be installed at the discretion of the users in the first restart the computer.

To resolve this deadlock, you must:
 * Go to Synaptic (the mouse icon on the top left -> System -> Synaptic Package Manager or in a terminal window type synaptic)
 * Make fix broken packages (Edit -> Fix broken packages)
 * Reload deposits (circular arrow left under File)
 * Select two packages to complete removal Flash (Search: magnifying glass to "flash", then select the package and click Remove right complete)
 * Reinstall (Select the packages and click Install right)



After these manipulations few warmup, everything should return to normal, but if your browser due to this does not always visualize videos in Flash format, use the following solution: "I can not view videos in Flash format".

Blocking when updating the distribution because issue.net and lsb-release files
In the last updates of August 2012, a deadlock occurs when replacing a file where issue.net or lsb-release, despite the authorization by the user to override where to keep those files.

To fix that make a computer restart and retry the update, then when applying the system to replace these files, accept the replacement thereof, and everything should get sorted.

Note : These two files serve only to inform the version of the distribution, and does not affect system operation.

The drag/drop into the Multisystem window does not work
This anomaly comes from GTK who is unable to support drag/drop Xubuntu. To get to use Multisystem, here are two ways to add an ISO file on the USB :


 * Right-click -> Copy your ISO file, and in the area of drag/drop Multisystem, use CTRL+V, then press "ENTER".


 * Use multi-selection interface, and double click on your ISO file, then click the Create button (big green button at the bottom right)

The Dock of the distribution is double
This may arise from the use of backup mode session, we do not recommend using. To find a healthy situation, please turn it off, but this does not solve the problem because cache backup session is not emptied. To clean the following command :

rm -r ~/.cache/sessions/*

Dock Emmabuntüs distribution was replaced by Cairo-Dock
If you have a dock like this :



instead of the usual dock below :



To retrieve the version Emmabuntüs dock, it's pretty simple : go to the home directory and then display hidden files (press Ctrl + H for non-specialists) and go to the directory .Config. In this directory you should find link the name of "cairo-dock". If instead you have a directory "cairo-dock" must rename it (right click of the mouse on the folder "Cairo-dock" and rename eg "cairo-dock-old" (do not delete it as you can return to the previous situation, besides our launcher does not remove and do not point the dock Emmabuntüs because of it) and reboot, and everything should return to normal.



AutoPlay CD/DVD does not work
If the Audio CD and DVD are not automounted, it comes from a misconfiguration on the launch of the media.

To correct this problem, click on Utilities in the dock, then Settings -> Disk and removable media, and the Multimedia tab.

In this panel you must place the following commands:




 * Audio CD: /usr/bin/audacious -E cdda://

If you prefer smplayer or VLC commands here:
 * /usr/bin/smplayer cdda://
 * /usr/bin/vlc --playlist-autostart cdda://


 * DVD-Video: /usr/bin/smplayer dvd://

If you prefer VLC the command is: /usr/bin/vlc --playlist-autostart dvd://

My WIFI card no longer works in Emmabuntüs
Notebooks with Broadcom cards (mainly HP and Dell) using the free driver "Broadcom 802.11 Linux STA wireless driver" does not work on Emmabuntus 2, although it is proposed automatically.

Relevant cards: Broadcom's BCM4311-, BCM4312-, BCM4313-, BCM4321-, BCM4322-, BCM43224-, and BCM43225-, BCM43227-and BCM43228-basedhardware.

It is therefore not to download and install a new one, we have successfully tested the extractor b43 firmware.

Must first identify the card as there are at least 3 sets corresponding to 3 different installers:


 * Firmware-b43-installer: BCM4306/3 BCM4311, BCM4312, BCM4318
 * Firmware-b43-installer-lpphy: BCM4312 (with Low Power aka LP-PHY)
 * Firmware-b43legacy-installer: BCM4301, BCM4303, BCM4306/2

These three packages are used to download a firmware supplied by Broadcom owner.

These packages depend on all 3 of b43-fwcutter, which is used to extract the firmware from the downloaded archive and install on the system.

ID: type the command in a terminal: lspci | grep Network

02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11a/b/g (rev 02)
 * If the return is for example:

Install (only the installation command line worked in our case) sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer

Answer yes (Enter) during extraction and restart the PC at the end.

01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b / g LP-PHY (rev 01)
 * If the return is:

Install: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer-lpphy


 * If the WIFI does not work try the following commands in a terminal window:

sudo apt-get remove bcmwl-kernel-source (remove competitor wl driver)

sudo rmmod b43 sudo rfkill unblock all sudo modprobe b43 (b43 reinstalls)

sudo rmmod b43 (b43 temporarily remove) sudo rmmod wl sudo rmmod BCMA (removes the drivers and competitors wl BCMA) sudo modprobe b43 (b43 reinstalls)

gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

Add at the end of the file that has just opened in "root": blacklist BCMA (BCMA competitor blacklist the driver)

Example:
 * For a permanent solution, edit the file "/etc/modules" by adding the line "b43"

sudo nano /etc/modules (opening nano in"root" also works with gedit)

I can not see the video in Flash format
This may be due to an incompatibility between the new version of Adobe Flash Player, and your hardware. We recommend that you install Flash player version provided by the Linux-Mint, and available in Emmabuntüs 2, under Maintenance -> Software Not Free -> Linux-Mint Flash

I can view Flash videos, but they are choppy
This behavior may indicate a power problem on your machine, you should use the application Minitube to view the videos of Youtube. To install this application please run the following commands in an xterm, under Maintenance -> Terminal Emulator :

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/minitube && sudo apt-get update -qq && sudo apt-get install -y -qq minitube
