For Instaling Lamp this distro worked out perfect: (Ihave the same problem as you have php download or open...) I tried for a month to fix it then I found this:
#This worked Out PERFECT!! and simple : XAMPP
Go to the page:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html
#After downloading simply type in the following commands:
#Go to a Linux shell and login as the system administrator root:
su
#Extract the downloaded archive file to /opt:
sudo tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.6.4.tar.gz -C /opt
#Warning: Please use only this command to install XAMPP. DON'T use any Microsoft Windows tools to extract the archive, it won't work.
#Warning 2: already installed XAMPP versions get overwritten by this command.
#That's all. XAMPP is now installed below the /opt/lampp directory.
#Step 3: Start
#To start XAMPP simply call this command:
sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start
#You should now see something like this on your screen:
#Starting XAMPP 1.6.4...
#LAMPP: Starting Apache...
#LAMPP: Starting MySQL...
#LAMPP started.
#Ready. Apache and MySQL are running.

Check in /var/log/cups/error.log
However, I suspect that the problem is simply that the ppd file never
makes it to the /etc/cups/ppd directory. When you installed the lexmark
drivers it should have untarred a ppd file:
Lexmark-Z35-lxz35cj-cups.ppd. See if you can find that on your system
and copy it to /etc/cups/ppd. That ppd file is really all that you
should need to use the printer.

Even then he should not switch off EVERY module that has SCSI in the
name, as some of them are need by usb-storage IIRC.

Could you check if libapache2-mod-php5 is installed? If you install
the php5 meta package this should be done automatically.

OK, usually I try to find a document someplace before I bother the list with
specific details so I'm not wasting folks time.
Both the Postfix and Dovecot servers are up and running based on all the
tests I have read about and done. Installed themselves when I loaded the
LAMP server software.
But how do you send mail to either one?
I don't have an Internet domain name for the server as it is strictly for
use on the LAN. I have called the machine "Ubuntu", yes I know terribly
creative, but it seemed like a good idea at the time. I am trying to replace
an old version of Microsoft Mail that came with the Windows '95 disk. Using
MS Outlook as the client software on my Win XP machine I can go into
Tools -> Services and click on "Add" and select "Microsoft Mail" from the
choices. All I have to do then on the window that pops up is browse to the
folder on the LAN that holds the mailboxes and I'm done the setup. This
setup automatically reads what mailboxes have been created and adds them to
my Address Book, so I just have to click on a name and click send to have it
go.
Using Webmin I can see under Servers -> Postfix Configuration an Icon for
User Mailboxes which shows me 41 mailboxes, 5 of these are the family users
that I have created through the Gnome System -> Administration -> Users and
Groups, which only shows me the 5 family members and the root user.
[This brings up another question: how do I get rid of users "openexchange",
"open-xchange and "oxadmin", which are left over from my attempt to get Open
Exchange working on the server, spent months on that one, but in the end had
to give up as the documentation just didn't work for Ubuntu and no one on
the Open Exchange forum could help, so now have managed to get eGroupware
working]
Up until I started to play around with the settings for Postfix and Dovecot
there were no messages in anybodies mail box, however I now have 123
messages in my "jan" mailbox. Webmin tells me they are in /var/mail/jan and
when I look at them they are all from Cron Daemon. when I open one of them
it is addressed from root at ubuntu.localdomain (Cron Daemon) addressed to
root at ubuntu.localdomain. With a subject of "Cron cd / &&
run-parts -- report /etc/cron.hourly" and the following message "run-parts:
run-parts: component /etc/cron.hourly/spamrunner is a broken symbolic link"
Of course if I try to address any mail from my Win XP machine to either
jan at ubuntu.localdomain or root at ubuntu.localdomain it fails because of course
my default email account attempts to use my ISP's SMTP server to send the
mail and it is looking for an Internet domain name called ubuntu.localdomain
and DNS can't find that one on the public servers ... :O)
So, How does one actually use the server once it is up and running? and now,
How can I fix the Cron problem?
Any help, emails, documentation or links to web sites would be greatly
appreciated.
Jan

Asunto: Mouse doesn't open anything in the toolbar any more!
Hi,
I was putting some applets on my toolbar when an error report showed
up and froze the system. As I didn't know what to do or which
application to kill I rebooted the computer. Now I have trouble with
my mouse. I can see the arrow of the mouse and move it, if I right
click on the screen or click on something that is on the desktop that
works but if I try the toolbar nothing happen. Does anybody have any
idea of what I should do? Right now I am stuck out of my home and
everything that is on the toolbar.
I am using ubuntu 6.10
Thank you
Meg

Strange things happen:
I am now searching for information about getting windows vista to double boot
together with ubuntu 7.10 (my problem is, that vista will not boot when
double installed together with ubuntu 7.10 - have tried two times).
I searced using firefox, in google on the following phrase:
"how to make vista double boot with ubuntu" (46.100 results)
then I gradually reduced the number of results by adding single words:
"how to make vista double boot with ubuntu -virtual" (10.900 results)
"how to make vista double boot with ubuntu -virtual -xp" (23.900 results)
"how to make vista double boot with ubuntu -virtual -xp +7.10" (398 results)
"how to make vista double boot with ubuntu -virtual -xp +7.10 -triple" (393
results)
Then I used the "search within results" option, and inserted "+vista"
and got 935 results (that's a lot more than 393)?
When I searched using konqueror, searching on the same phrase, I ended up
with 427 search results?
When I then tried "search within results" and inserted "+vista" I got 2890
results.
I did never use any double quotes in my search.

Try searching for "vista ubuntu dual boot"
http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=vista+ubuntu+dual+boot&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
Third of 1,690,000,000 results:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=207870
For me at least, relying on Google's relevancy (i.e., ranking) usually satisfies and I don't need to go beyond the 4th or 5th result returned.
