View 4 Replies View RelatedI am wondering if anyone has figured out how to turn off the file locking in openoffice 3.2. I have been searching the net for solutions, trying out the fixes, and as of right now I have not been able to find a way to stop the creation of lock files.
I have tried editing both /usr/bin/soffice and /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice as described in the links (below), but this has not helped.
Here are the relevant links I have found

According to this thread, the method I tried (setting SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=0) was based on earlier versions of openoffice.org It no longer works because as of openoffice.org 3 the file locking is built into the program.

The setup is a central PC with XDMCP getting connections from two peripheral PCs. All PCs have normal Slackware installations (12.0 the central one, 13.1 the others). XDMCP works fine and the users login to KDE. The users have a common directory with appropriate permissions for group work.The problem is file locking. More than one users can open and work on the same file in the common directory, eg. foto editing the same jpg with GIMP.
Googling around I found that file locking is advisory in Linux, meaning its up to the applications to honour it. Also that there is a mand (mandatory locking) mount option which seems like the solution, but there are warnings [1], [2]. Other finds point to the use of versioning systems (svn, git) to take care of file locking, or network file systems (cifs, nfs): I'd prefer not to burden casual users with having to come to terms with a versioning system, and the network file systems seem wrong since the users work locally.
Considering Linux is a multiuser OS I am taken aback from this apparent lack of file locking support and tend to think missing something obvious.Has anyoneexperienced/solved a similar setup?A couple of last points. The common directory is on a normal mount (ext3, RAID1), fstab entry:
Code:
/dev/md0 /data ext3 defaults 1 2
And I'm aware of options like TSLP, but I'd rather resolve the issue generically.

I am a noob to slackware always have wanted to try it. But how in simple terms can i install a program like devede with slackbuilds from slackbuilds.org?

We have the same problem but tried his solution to no avail.
Doing a shh would give me an error..

When I change SElinux to permissive from enforcing I can login but turning back to enforcing, the problem comes back. I did the following...
Quote:
[felipe@nimitz ~]$ ls -Z .Xauthority

[felipe@nimitz ~]$ ls -lZd

[code]....
I tried to create a new user with the default directory in /home and it work fine.
I agree deleting .Xauthority files work, but thats not a good solution. I mean, everytime I have to run any X forwarding application I have to delete the .Xauthority file. Here is my scenarioThe applications that I want to run are on Linux Server [NFS] and the client machines [CIFS] that are having problem in locking theXauthority files are Macs which share the same domain as that of client solaris machine. i.e. The home directory of particular user on Solaris & the home directory of that user on Mac have same contents.When I ssh -X from Solaris to the server, everything works fine, no error messages.When I ssh -X from MACs to the server, I get the following warning messages.
Code:
/usr/X/bin/xauth: error in locking authority file /home/user/.Xauthority
/usr/X/bin/xauth is the path on the server. If I try to break the lock by sudo

I'm working on a kickstart install to automate a lot of monotony doing installs. When i use the kickstart install i get an error on boot saying "File based locking initialization failed" "no volume groups found". Then it proceeds to boot up with no issues and appears to work just fine. Below is the section of my ks.cfg for creating the partitions: %include /tmp/partition.cfg is included where the partition info usually occurs. The user is prompted in the pre script for how large they would like the partitions to be and then the script below creates the included file with partition info

I've recently installed F15 on my old thinkpad X41 to give it a go after sticking to ubuntu for quite a bunch of years now.
Somehow there seems to be a problem with the installation tho: the screen freezes up (as does the keyboard) after a while using it - not many programs open, a couple of workspaces enabled, no memory or CPU stress whatsoever - and all i'm left with is a moving mouse cursor. Ctrl + alt + F2 doesn't work and the only solution is to restart the laptop again.
Tried the fallback mode and same thing still happens, so maybe its not a graphic card issue.
My computer keep locking up when I try to open a new tab in Google Chrome. It locks up when I do other stuff too but it does not stay locked up. When it gets locked up from Chrome I have to fix it by doing Ctrl + Alt + Backspace. It only happens sometimes though. I can open new tabs sometimes without it locking up. I know it has something to do with my graphics driver (I have an ati). When it locks up I can't do anything and then like 10 seconds later I can move my mouse but that's it, everything else is still frozen. That's when I do Ctrl + Alt + Backspace. Here is what the messages log file says:

I changed the real host name of my computer to hostname.
I'm happily running Fedora 13 as a guest OS in VMWare 3.0.1, except that it has one little issue.Sometimes the mouse would get terribly confused. It generally happens when I hit the mouse scroll wheel or when I move a window around very quickly. After that the left mouse button would stop working...
Anyway I found an easy workaround which I thought I'd share.Just hit 'enter unity' on the VMWare player menu. Then you can immediately exit unity again. This somehow resets the mouse into its normal state...
I added the rpmfusion repos so that I could install the nvidia drivers and downloaded whatever updates appeared. Initially after rebooting, I kept getting "No root device found" which I've managed to solve but now it keeps locking up after "Starting atd". That actually manages to load and then it locks so I'm guessing that it's "S99livesys" that is causing the problem.From googling, this appear to be a problem with certain kernels and can be resolved by either using an older kernel image or turning the process off in the command line. My problem is that this was a fresh install so there's only one kernel image so it's impossible for me to use a different one. For the same reason, I can't get into the command line.
Is there anyway to get around this without re-installing?I don't want to have the same issue if I re-install?Can I download the kernel images and just place them in /boot?
I upgraded from F12 i686 to F13 (I should say clean install). And now ever so often my computer locks up...... I will wait for an update or something this week but if it continues after I may have to go back to F12 (on another HDD)

What is the best way to begin troubleshooting startup problems after kernel update to 2.6.31.12-174.22.fc12.x86-64? Since updating, I am experiencing frequent system hangs at startup.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm still having problems with firefox 3.5 on Fedora 11. My computer freezes; and it takes a power-off reset to unlock it. Keyboard and display are unresponsive (x-server crash). It crashes even with Firefox 3.5 running in safe mode.

Koji was used to update kernel and firefox. Thanks to wangmaster and other members, I was able to install Firefox 3.0.12, which is run using a different profile. Do I need a debug version of Firefox for a dump? Do I need to send this AMD machine to the landfill or North Carolina?
I have installed vnc-server on my CentOS 5.6 virtual machine. I can connect to it with a java web browser so it seems to be working.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI just did a fresh install of Kubuntu 9.10. The GUI regularly locks up. I can SSH to it from another machine everytime it locks up. Top shows Xorg consuming 99% cpu. I think downgrading the nvidia driver to 173 from 185 helped reduce the lockups. Before they seemed very random and very often. Now it seems to happen when copying a large amount of files over the network but I'm not entirely sure. It ran the electricsheep screensaver all day today with no problems and the RSS euphoria GL screensaver all day yesterday. If I copy 2GB of files from one local directory to another no problem, if I do it through cifs mounted samba shares it will lock up for sure. Small amounts seem ok. Apt-get install has had some lock ups too.
I don't really know how to trace what's going on beyond installing ssh and finding out that it's totally alive inside. I don't know what to look for in log files nor which ones to look at. I didn't recognize anything wrong in Xorg log. In the system log I look for the time gap between when it locked up and I shut down and when I rebooted but I didn't notice anything.
I first started experiencing it when I would leave my computer logged in overnight.I would come in and find the screen frozen and flickering. When I ssh'd into the machine, I could see that Xorg was using 100% of the CPU and a ton of memory. I could kill kdm, but not Xorg. Only a full reboot would cure it.When it would reboot, my second monitor sometimes would not work and it would take several reboots to get it up and running. Recently, I was working in matlab and had Xorg freeze on my numerous times...always when I had my second monitor up and running.
The card in question is an Nvidia 9800 GX 2.It almost seems like GPU0 (the one running the second monitor) is dead or dieing and is causing instability when it is up and running..but I've also heard that X running away and locking up the system is a known bug.
I know that Ubuntu doesn't need antivirus, and a firewall isn't imperative.
I would, however, like to know what I could do to make my Lucid box a bit more secure, as I'm using it as my work system.
I installed with no problem. I have 2 hd's one with winxp3-32bit the other with debain-amd64. When i move a window on the desktop or try to scroll in a window the text gets out of whack and computer locks up.

Ok, one more question on nameserver security. So I was reading this post and it recommended not setting a defined outgoing port for your nameserver due to the Kaminsky vulnerability.What is the proper way to lock down a nameserver, but avoid the vulnerability of only allowing incoming and outgoing requests on port 53

When Gnome starts, I would like to auto-login a user account, but I and the screensaver to lock at boot. I am using the gnome-screensaver.
So is this what I get for not upgrading because the support for 8.10 ends on 4/30? I have 8.10 but it is locking up immediately after logging in. It's a 64 bit system and has worked flawlessly up to this point. Ctrl-alt-BS does not work. Alt-Sys-K does not work. Alt-Sys-R, E, I, S, U, E does not work. Only turning off the power resets the computer. Memtest turned up nothing.
