Fedora :: Xinit Playing Sound In Wrong Terminal
Mar 18, 2011I'm using Fedora 14 and wanna place xbmc on another terminal using " xinit xbmc -- :2". The xbmc lunched fine in another terminal. But when playing sound, I can only hear it in terminal 1. That is, I open a gnome-terminal in terminal 1, run "xinit xbmc -- :2" inside -> xbmc lunched in terminal 2 -> play a video with xbmc -> graph is ok, but sound come out from terminal 1 rather than terminal 2. This shouldn't be a problem with xbmc, for when I use mplayer instead, sound come out from wrong terminal too.

Apr 7, 2010it's been a LONG time since I've used Fedora (I think 6 was the last I used) and I decided to check things out. Installed the LiveCD KDE respin x86_64 version. Once the installation was done, I installed the yum fastest mirror plugin, then did a yum update. I then yum installed firefox, and used the autoten script to install Flash-plugin, Mp3-codecs, Dvd-codecs, and All-codecs. I then installed amarok and tried playing a song.There was no sound, and the slider moved at least twice as fast as it should have. I then attempted to play a video file with VLC. The video played fine, but there was still no sound. Firefox seems to be the only program that plays sound properly, as both ..... and pandora play fine. Konqueror however does not play sound on ......This seems to me like a 64-bit related issue since I think firefox has all the 32 bit libraries for flash to work, but like I said, I've been out of this scene for a while now.

General :: Starting Xinit Through Ssh?
Mar 30, 2011How do I execute xinit on a remote computer through ssh (preferrably)? ssh -X is NOT an option. I'm not looking for running a remote program on localhost. I want to run a program on the server displaying on the server's display. I can do that if X is running. But if for some reason I need to stop X, I can't restart it from the localhost and the program won't run. If I run xinit as root (through sudo) through ssh I get:
X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting. giving up.
The user can do this if I run it directly on the server.

Debian :: SOund Working In Some Programs But Not Others
Nov 19, 2010After the latest update in testing, I found sound not to be working. I checked system config in KDE and found the wrong sound card set there. I changed it to the correct sound card, sound now works in some programs and not others (IE, Dragon Player and Amarok have sound, Kaffeine and Iceweasel do not).Sound does not work through the on board sound card.System beep sounds (through the onboard speaker) also fail to work.I've had similar problems in the past due to the inability to turn off the onboard sound, alsaconf has always fixed them, however debian has removed alsaconf from alsa-utils.
View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Skype Configuration - No Sound For Other Programs
Jan 4, 2010I'm on Ubuntu Karmic, and running Skype 2.0.0.72 -- since I couldn't get the latest version to work with my USB microphone. If I have Skype running, no other programs will produce sound (i.e. Amarok, VLC, flash in the browser, etc.). If any of those programs are active when I start Skype, Skype will fail to produce sound & won't work properly. Is there a way I can allow side-by-side usage of Skype and my other audio-producing programs, since all my other programs seem to get along just fine when it comes to sharing audio?
Audio Devices in Skype in case it will help:
Sound In: USB Device 0x471:0x311 (hw:U0x4710x311,0)
Sound Out: C-Media CMI8770 (plughw:CMI8770,0)
Ringing: C-Media CMI8770 (plughw:CMI8770,0)
Again, both my current Skype configuration & sound in general programs works on my system -- they're just not playing well with each other.

Ubuntu :: Terrible Sound Latency With Some Programs
May 15, 2010It's an eMachines T2899 desktop, FIC AU31 motherboard, nForce2 chipset, AC97 sound (integrated), running Xubuntu 10.04 (wubi install), 2.6.32-22.I've got terrible sound latency (about one second between actions and sound) in some programs.Flash in both firefox and chrome (including ..... videos) and ZSNES (SNES emulator) are two offenders, as is Audacity.Videos played in the default "movie player" and VLC play with no delay, though.I've been told it could be an issue with the ALSA buffer size, or pulseaudio introducing latency... but I've no clue how to go about fixing it.Upon using the SNES9X emulator (which allows for choice of sound system)... Portaudio causes laggy emulation and bad sound latency. Open Sound System plays fine. SDL causes laggy emulation and bad sound latency. ALSA plays fine. Pulse Audio plays fine."sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio" did nothing, so I reinstalled it just in case.

View 1 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Iceweasel Hangs When Launched Sometimes?
Jan 11, 2011I am running Squeeze (Gnome desktop) and I'm experiencing some problems with Iceweasel. My problem is that sometimes Iceweasel just hangs when I launch it. I can see the cursor blinking 2-3 times in the adress bar and then it just locks up. I have tried a few different versions of iceweasel, both from stable (squeeze though), experimental and now a package from http://mozilla.debian.net/packages/ with iceweasel 4 beta.
All of them behaves the same way. They work for a while and then suddenly locks up when launched. The only way to get going again is to kill the process and delete the .mozilla directory. It is possible to launch the --safe-mode though but nothing with this mode lets me change anything to get a normal session going.' Also, it doesn't matter if I have extensions installed or not, it still behaves the same way with zero of them installed. How would I go about to debug this? If I launch iceweasel from the command line I get no output but I'm sure there is a way to get some more info to work with.

Ubuntu :: Limiting # Of Threads Launched By A Script
Mar 6, 2011I have a script that basically takes a list of IP addresses, and pings them to tell me if each device (Access Point) is online or not. The problem with that is, the list contains about a hundred addresses. Making the problem worse is the fact that using a single ICMP packet per device is not an option since, at certain times of the day, the network is too congested to guarantee that a single ICMP packet won't be dropped, despite the device being up and running. That means I need to send multiple pings per device for about a hundred devices. As you can imagine, doing this sequentially takes a while.
What I want to do is make my script open other threads in the background to ping multiple devices in parallel. The problem with that is - if I simply make each ping command run in parallel, soon there are a hundred background tasks, one for each address, and that consumes a lot of CPU (CPU hits 100% and stays there till the script is done). Is there a way I can make about 10 threads run at a time, and any other threads will queue until a spot opens up for them? Kind of like the token bucket, except when there aren't enough tokens, the main script waits until it can launch more background threads that ping the next addresses on the list.

View 7 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Creating Terminal Launched Applications (Shortcuts)
Jun 16, 2011Just got a problem that I've spent a few days trying to get around. Basically, what I am trying to do is create launchers/shortcuts on my desktop that will
a) Launch a terminal with root or sudo access
b) Launch an application.
For example, an application I might ordinarily use as a super user or root user is 'hping3.'
Basically, I want to be able to click on the launcher, and have it open up a terminal with sudo access and launch the hping3 application. I've tried messing around with the 'create launcher' function, and entering in a command to be launched in a terminal window, but to no avail (e.g. something like "sudo hping3" or "su && hping3"). How to write up a simple script to launch a terminal with su access and launch a given application?

Debian Multimedia :: Password Rejected When App Launched Via Gnome Menu
Jul 26, 2015I use Debian Jessie with Gnome.
I have installed Timeshift. Administrative password is requested when I click Timeshift icon in Gnome menu. I enter the password (or paste it to be sure) but it always returns with "incorrect password, please try agian" message. I am sure that I type my password correctly.
I looked at the icon's properties. It runs "timeshift-launcher". I changed it as "gksudo timeshift" or "sudo timeshift" or "gksu timeshift", enabled "Launch in terminal", disabled, but nothing changed. Always same password request window appears and it rejects my password.
However when I run "sudo timeshift" or "gksudo timeshift" command in Terminal it accepts my password and runs.
When I run for example Synaptics via Gnome Menu, password request window is with black background and it accepts my password. However when I run Timeshift, password request window is with gray background and it rejects.
Root password was not defined in my system during installation and I am the only user. I run administrative commands via sudo without any problem.
General :: Location Of A Program Running In Terminal - Launched From Panel?
Dec 17, 2010I am using DreamLinux. I have pinned a program, that runs in terminal, to the launcher in the panel on desktop. The program's executable file (name: feap) is located in /home/User/feap2.2 After I added the launcher to the panel that runs the file in terminal, the program asks for the input file (text file with alot of commands) when run. By default the program accepts the files that are located in the same directory i.e. /feap2.2 , so I placed the input file in the same directory.
However when I run the program from the panel, and give the input file name, it says no such file exists. Then I gave the file name with full path, but problem was not solved. I have tried alot e.g. placed the input file at other locations, but all in vain. I have set all input file permissions to be accessible by User as well. I will be much relieved if someone suggests where to place the input file for the such program running in the terminal launched from panels?
P.S: If I open terminal, go to the directory (/home/User/feap2.2), run the program's exe file, and then give the file name, it accepts the input file and it give results.
Programming :: Perl Behavior When Process Launched In `backticks` Crashes
May 11, 2011I have a friend (really), who is the author of a Perl application that uses backticks to launch an external application. The process reads a largish set of data files, and printing largish amounts of data which is consumed by Perl. Very rarely, the external application crashes. When it does, the Perl script has been seen to hang, and the host CPU usage goes to 100%. The Perl script can be killed and the host recovers.
The question is whether this is predictable/expected behavior, and if it is, is there anything within Perl which can be used to defend against this behavior. I have already recommended the use of the open() form of reading from a child process, but I'm not sure whether that really accomplishes anything. My theory on the matter is that Perl ends up busy-waiting on the child's output, never receiving any EOF, and consuming all CPU. I cannot see how using open() changes that behavior. I am now interested in this problem so I can avoid causing similar behaviors in the future, and just because 'inquiring minds wish to know'.
EDIT: I suppose I should have added that this is on generic 32-bit Linux hosts; Perl 5.8.X
