Debian Multimedia :: Make A Dialog With Zenity Which Would Show An Updating List?

Jan 4, 2011

Is there a way to make a dialog with zenity which would show an updating list? Zenity does it with progress, but I didn't figure out if it's possible to do it with the list. I.e. for example, I want to monitor something, and update the dialog with new list periodically. Is it even possible? zenity can wait for data from stdin, but it just adds stuff to the list. May be there are some control sequences which clear the list in the dialog?

For example:

{ echo "Foo"; sleep 2; echo "Bar"; } | zenity --list --title='Dynamic list?' --text='Some data' --column='values'

How can I instead of adding Bar, replace the Foo with it?

Ubuntu :: Get User List Dialog At Startup

Jul 17, 2010

My girlfriend has a Toshiba Satellite Athlon64 laptop, and she can't get it to go past the user list dialog before it logs all the way in. We've tried her username and password, but every time we enter it, the screen blanks for a moment and then returns to the user list dialog. I've reset the password by booting to terminal, but it still won't let us past the dialog. I'd hate to have to reinstall her system. Is there any way we can get past this? And, why is it not accepting the password? I couldn't find an open bug on this issue.

Also, we had just installed OpenShot Video Editor during the same session. She said she got it from the Synaptic Package Manager. I'm not sure if this messed with her video settings. We can see X trying to start after we put the password in, but it keeps going back to the user list dialog. Actually, I uninstalled OpenShot and gnome-screensaver from the root prompt, just in case they were causing the issue. I had noticed that the laptop was buggy coming in and out of hibernation. I wonder if that's causing X not to start properly? I did check the startup logs and I didn't see any errors there either.

Ubuntu :: Unlock Screen Dialog Does Not Show Up Immediately

Sep 28, 2010

I run into a new kind of problem with Ubuntu 10.4 LTS. The unlock screen dialog that asks for your password when resuming from the screensaver does not show up immediately. Moving the mouse, typing stuff. It does not seem to be a pure display problem, since typing the password does not seem to do the trick. After a while (about 15 seconds), it shows up, though.

Debian :: Make Dpkg-l Show More Info/descriptions?

Jun 18, 2011

Most of the time whenever I run dpkg -l I get cryptic output. For instance

[Code]...

Because I normally use it to see only one file (while multiple files are possible as well), was wondering if there was a way to tell dpkg to show couple of lines as output. I do see that there is a /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg file as well as /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d directory as well. Looking forward to info. on the same.

Debian Multimedia :: Lightdm Login Screen Does Not Bring Up Lightdm-gtk-greeter Dialog Box

May 4, 2015

In Jessie the lightdm login screen does not bring up a lightdm-gtk-greeter dialog box but what seems to be some other one. I can increase the font size by modifying the /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf file, but the login dialog box will not grow to accommodate the larger font (old eyes). The lightdm-gtk-greeter dialog box in Wheezy was a rectangle with a glyph of a console centered in its upper portion, and all the files I have examined indicate that this should be the same in Jessie, but instead the login screen in Jessie displays a narrower rectangle with a head-and-shoulder stylization off to the left.

Debian Multimedia :: Updating Icedove And Iceowl Extension

Sep 18, 2015

I'm using icedove with the calendar extension. Since quite some time there is a pending update from 31.7 to 31.8 which is held back by apt:

Code: Select all> apt --installed list icedove iceowl-extension
Listing... Done
icedove/testing,now 31.7.0-1 amd64 [installed,upgradable to: 31.8.0-1~deb8u1]
iceowl-extension/testing,now 31.7.0-1 amd64 [installed,upgradable to: 31.8.0-1~deb8u1]

> sudo apt upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       

[code]....

Seems like the problem lies with the package libvpx1. The correct version (>= 1.3) seems to be installed but under the name libvpx2.

Code: Select all> sudo apt install icedove

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

 icedove : Depends: libvpx1 (>= 1.3.0) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

> apt list --installed | grep libvpx
libvpx2/testing,now 1.4.0-4 amd64 [installed,automatic]
>

What can be done, or should the dependency in the icedove package be updated?
