Debian :: Some Apps Have Strange Spacing In Options Menus

Oct 14, 2015

URl...how wide are the spaces between these entries. A quick research shows that this affects only certain apps such as gnome-terminal or Anjuta, but doesn't affect for example Synaptic - my first thought was that it's related to these using GTK3, but now I can see it's not that. This is not theme-related as it appears no matter what theme I choose. No results by googling.

Ubuntu :: 10.10 Randomly Freezes \ Get Context Menus But The Options Within Dont Do Anything?

Nov 4, 2010

i could be doing anything and suddenly the entire gui will lock up. i can right click to get context menus but the options within dont do anything. i tried xkill with alt-f2: it activated the crosshair but when i clicked on something nothing happened.this started happening after i played minecraft (downloaded version) for an extended period of time (slow as dogcrap i might add). now it happens after a random time has passed no matter what im doing.

the only way to rectify the problem is to kill the Xorg server and restart it. the computer was still usable for a short period, but it'd crash eventually. after a reboot it's good for a longer amount of time before it crashes again.recent things i've done that might have an effect is i installed kde and then removed it again

Debian :: Strange Link Gets Me To Different Sites?

Apr 19, 2010

Trying again here.. no-one on reddit seems to respond..It initially happened here (it was deleted, you can try the lower links.) Sometimes one, sometimes both of these links gets me to 'attack sites', it starts with both, then to one, and then neither does it. I am on Debian Lenny, Both Iceweasel 3.0.6-3(firefox), epiphany2.22.3-9, elinks0.11.4-3 and firefox 3.6.3 sometimes do this for me. It doesn't seem to happen if you enter it into the adress bar, but it does when you follow it by clicking.[URL]..Someone else reported it too, from XP w/ Firefox. The adress bar tells me it is subreddits.org the but the screen doesn't. (Worry my computer is compromised..)

Links it send me too, something on 89.248.174.24, orcug.com, thindx46td.xorg.pl and a whole range of varying other sites. http://i.imgur.com/d7ZGv.png So can you reproduce/any idea what this could be? I do worry about having some malware on firefox and such, also besides this, but as i said, it happens with other browsers. I have add-on flashblock, noscript, redditreveal, socialite, trackmenot, had tree style tab until i found it wasn't usefull enough. I also noticed that control+k gets me to bol.com (wtf is up with that??), and there was the random site you get to when you misclick.(Which i was able to disable.) I am gradually getting more and more pissed off and suspicious about firefox. (as on my computer.)

Firefox also seems start reading/writing from disk suddenly. (I use iotop when i think it shouldn't be writing sometimes.) Perhaps i should try set something up to record what writes to disk.

Debian :: Meaning Of Strange 'ls' Colours?

Mar 16, 2010

Anyone know what the 'ls' command means when it outputs the file name in red on black, with the permissions, owner, etc. all missing? The 'man' page was of no help. In the example below, from a DVD ROM, the third file was OK and I could read it. The first two could not be read, even as root.

?--------- ? ? ? ? /media/dvdrom/DVD_RTAV/VR_MANGR.BUP

Debian :: Nvidia All Video Has Strange Hue Around Certain Elements

Nov 28, 2015

First impressions I really like Debian, been running a server with it for a while and just last week switched to it on my main workstation.

I have only had one problem with video. I have a Geforce 210 with 1gb (1024x768 resolution) of ram and the proprietary Nvidia drivers installed from a repo. Thing is, in all video whether flash in my browser or movies in vlc, mpv, and mplayer, I have these weird overlays that scan over the video, especially in scenes where the camera zooms in, long distance shots seem unaffected.

Also, almost every video I start whether flash or movie file, I get a flash of a green bar at the bottom of the screen very quickly and barley noticeable.

Now I know thats a rough description so I attached two screen shots (link at bottom of post), the affected area is circled in red on one, also I have attached a png of a similar image that may be more enlightening.

Notice the quality of the second screen shot, especially around Will Ferrell's head, and the greenish yellow line leading down his shoulder and arm. The general quality seems terrible. The film is in 720p and looks great in Mac.

I had the proprietary drivers installed in Slackware 14.1 and Mac OS 10.10.5(Nvidia Web Drivers) on this system, with this card and did not have this problem.

I'm in gnome latest version.

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT218 [GeForce 210] (rev a2)
Subsystem: Device 196e:082e
Kernel driver in use: nvidia
01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1)
Subsystem: Device 196e:082e
Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel

Switched Nouveau same result....

Debian Multimedia :: K3b Makes Strange Cracking Noise

Jul 1, 2011

I have just installed squeeze 6.0.2 amd64 and noticed when I use k3b to burn/verify a disc, when it has finished burning the media it plays a sound, and rather sound is played which sounds very crackly/muffled.I do not remember this on ubuntu, and I cannot say for sure but I dont recall this happening on squeeze 6.0.1.

Sound plays perfectly in all other applications, no problems whatsoever.This is not a big deal, I just dont remember this happening. I know this isnt the most detailed posting but does anyone have any idea what this could be? I even tried to reinstall k3b through synaptics and the problem still persists.

Debian :: Sudo Results In Strange File Owner

Mar 16, 2010

I like the "Ubuntu" sudo philosophy and wanted to setup this sudo the same way on my Debian system. I was happy when I found that I just have to do the following:
-create a group 'admin'
-adduser christian admin
-visudo
-add the line: %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL

Then I tried sudo rm -rf / to check if sudo works. All worked fine. No, seriously, I can move around files that belong to the root and such, so sudo somehow works. But when creating new files with sudo, like e.g.
tar xzf myZippedTarball
these files belong to user 41034 and to the group users instead of root root:
drwxr-xr-x 7 41034 users 4096 2009-11-01 01:07 libsvm-2.9
Certainly, this is not the way I want to have. The user 41034 doesn't even show up in /etc/passwd...

Debian :: Use Lenny On Desktop - Strange Message At Boot Up

Oct 18, 2010

I use Debian Lenny on desktop. On bootup I get this strange message

Code:

Question one: what is hub 2-0:1.0? A utility? A library? A module?

Queston two: what does "enumerate" mean in this context?

Question three: I can't figure out what "port" is meant: a networking port something on the motherboard one of several I/O port/connector/sockets on the back of the computer? (Hope you know what I mean--- you stick USB connectors into them to connect your computer to a USB device, such as a USB mouse.) the one and only networking port/connector/socket on the back of the computer.

Possibly relevant: I sometimes but not always have a USB cable connecting my printer to one of the USB ports/connectors on the back of the computer at boot time. But the message always refers to "port 1", never 2,3,4. due to lack of options for getting on the Net, I use an Actiontek router which demands to be given 192.168.0.1 which would otherwise be taken by my computer, which instead gets 192.168.0.2. (Grasping at straws...)

Debian Installation :: Getting Two Grub Menus

Sep 27, 2014

I have just upgraded my Xen system from squeeze to wheezy. Things seem to have worked except for one very important problem: I'm getting two grub menus. I get one white-on-blue that comes up first. It says GNU GRUB version 1.99-27+deb7u2 at the top. (It defaults to the wrong image... but that is an issue to address later.) I choose "Xen 4.1-amd64".Then I get a second grub menu that is white on black: GNU GRUB version 1.99-27+deb7u2 at the top. I have two options "Debian GNU Linux with Xen 4.4-amd64 and Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64" and the other "Debian GNU/Linux, with Xen 4.1-amd64 and Linux 3.2.04-amd64 (recovery m->"

This is reminiscent of the cascade option from upgrading from legacy grub to grub2... but both menus say 1.99-27... so I don't know what the heck is going on here. I have tried running upgrade-from-grub-legacy and grub-install and grub-updater etc. etc... but it always comes up the same. I cannot have that. This is a server, I need it to boot to the appropriate kernel image -- and preferably with only one grub menu!Here are the grub-related packages I have installed:

Code: Select all# aptitude search grub
i   grub                                     - GRand Unified Bootloader (dummy package)           
p   grub-choose-default                      - Control Grub Default through a GUI                 
i A grub-common                              - GRand Unified Bootloader (common files)           
p   grub-coreboot                            - GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot versi
p   grub-coreboot-bin                        - GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot binar

Debian Multimedia :: Creating Sub-menus In GNOME?

Jul 22, 2011

I recently changed from Ubuntu 11.04 to Debian 6.0 and I'm having some trouble editing the applications menu. If I use alacarte to add sub-menus to the Games menu they appear in Applications>Debian>Games rather than Applications>Games. So I tried to do it the manual way. I created .desktop files for all my games and put them in ~/.local/share/applications here is an example:

bone1.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0

[code]....

But none of my new sub-menus or menu entries in sub-menus appear in my menus or alacarte. I also tried using just categories in gnome-applications.menu but that didn't work either.So what I have at the moment is all my games in one long list, what am I doing wrong?

Debian Configuration :: Remove Item From Desktop Menus

Feb 7, 2016

I am using Wheezy 7.9, Gnome Classic, gdm3 . I have two menu instances of Master PDF Editor, one instance in the Graphics menu and the other in the Office category. I have tried using Alacarte to remove one of the instances. Alacarte shows that the item has been removed but in fact it still shows up in the menu. The procedure I used was to open Alacarte as root user, delete the item, close Alacarte and re-start the computer.
