Ubuntu – Install MySQL 5.1 on Ubuntu 12.04

installationMySQLUbuntuubuntu 12.04

Only version 5.5 is available through apt-get, but I want to install 5.1.

Is there a way to install it through apt-get? Perhaps by adding a certain repository.
How can I install it manually without apt-get? There were instructions in the compressed file provided by MySQL that worked reasonably well, but I had issues connecting through it and I think there were some things missing that is provided through a .deb package.

I wasn't able to find any good resources on installing it manually apart from the INSTALL-BINARY that came with it.

Best Answer

The solution I ended up using was MySQL Sandbox. With MySQL Sandbox, I was able to install MySQL 5.1 self-contained in one folder which is better in my opinion than having MySQL using many different folders which is harder to uninstall which may have been the reason for issues with installing 5.1 manually after having installed 5.5. With MySQL Sandbox, I'm able to have multiple instances of MySQL installed without them conflicting with one another.

Ubuntu – NVIDIA graphics driver in Ubuntu 12.04

Is there any specific reason you want version 295.59 installed?

Solution I (Preferred)

I would recommend looking at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYYnTdX6EwI.

I quote from the link Description (Credit: Youtube User: LastAxis)

"#CUDA:
http://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads
#Normal:
http://www.geforce.co.uk/drivers

First install the following libraries & Tools:
sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev build-essential libx11-dev libxmu-dev libxi-dev libgl1-mesa-glx libglu1-mesa libglu1-mesa-dev

Next we will blacklist some modules(drivers), in terminal enter:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

Add the following to the end of the file(one per line like so):
blacklist amd76x_edac
blacklist vga16fb
blacklist nouveau
blacklist rivafb
blacklist nvidiafb
blacklist rivatv

Save the file and close the editor.
Now we want to get rid of any nvidia risiduals, in terminal:
sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia*

Next you need to restart your machine (sudo reboot).

# Please DON'T do the next step until you have watched the video! #

0) Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 at login screen(you don't have to login, we'll have to restart later anyway), then log in.
1) sudo service lightdm stop
2) cd Downloads
3) chmod +x devdriver*.run (your driver filename)
4) sudo ./devdriver*.run

You might have to run the driver-installer once, reboot(it will remove nouveau drivers) and repeat the steps again. Follow the installer instructions and it will be fine, when it asks you;
yes, you do want the 32-bit libraries and you DO want it to change the xorg.conf file.

Once the installer completes, restart (sudo reboot). You're done :]"

Solution II

If the solution in the link did not work for you then first uninstall nvidia drivers (if any) then use the following procedure (before reinstalling again).

sudo apt-get autoremove nvidia-*
sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.orig1
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Go to "Dash Home" (top left) and type "system settings"> "Hardware" > "Additional Drivers". Ensure nothing is active (may have to restart PC if the message instructs accordingly.).

Installing NVIDIA drivers (295.49 is Stable as of now although a new 295.53 is available)

- Ubuntu 32-bit (i386):

cd ~/; mkdir nvidia295.49; cd nvidia295.49/
wget -O NVIDIA-Linux-x86-295.49.run http://goo.gl/1f9kc
chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86-295.49.run

Ctrl+Alt+F1

login with user/password

then

sudo service lightdm stop
sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-295.49.run (follow instructions)
sudo reboot

- Ubuntu 64-bit (amd64):

cd ~/; mkdir nvidia295.49; cd nvidia295.49/
wget -O NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.49.run http://goo.gl/hg4Kz
chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.49.run

Ctrl+Alt+F1

login with user/password

then

sudo service lightdm stop
sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-295.49.run (follow instructions)
sudo reboot

If you screw anything simply restore the original sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.orig /etc/X11/xorg.conf (or remove this if using Onchip Intel Card)

Alternative

WORST CASE ALTERNATIVE: FOR OPENGL ONLY (WITHOUT CUDA)

Try the following on Ubuntu 12.04 [Worst case if nothing works with NVIDIA GPU, with this you can use OpenGL with Intel onchip display card if not for NVIDIA's CUDA Kit]

glxinfo

If it says something like

name of display: :0.0
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig

Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

Then proceed

sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.orig
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf

For 32 bit Reinstall xorg completely

sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386

For 64 bit Reinstall xorg completely

sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx:amd64 libgl1-mesa-dri:amd64

The OS info (32 bit/64 bit) can be verified using uname -a

Then Reconfigure Xorg

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
sudo reboot

On reboot run glxinfo again and verify that those values
