Starting File Manager opens up a million and one times in FC12
Is there a way to stop it?
I don't know what I did differently before this happens. Now I cannot access files or see icons on the desktop. The "starting file manager" continuously loops in the bottom panel, continuing to load forever. in the system monitor, if I kill the process "gnome panel", it resets itself, then continues the process. Only thing different I did was install that one thing that gives you System->Preferences->Windows by hitting "yum install control-center-extra".

Anyone have idiot proof simple instructions to accomplish this in the command line?
the system currently have a directory with all the invalid files. how bad is it to move a single file to a directory containing 3 million files already?

Everything went smoothly until I booted-up today when I got a message in the top right corner of the desktop saying "WARNING, A CRASH PACKAGE NAUTILUS - 2.28.1 - 2 FC12 HAS BEEN DETECTED."All my icons have disappeared from the desktop.In the tool bar I have a continuous row of moving identical icons for "Starting File Manager".

I was able to go to command line, and do an "ifup ifcfg-eth0" and DHCP got an address. Go into GNOME - System-Administration - Network , or system-config-network the "Activate/Deactivate" is greyed out. Also, GNOME - System-Administration - Network Device Control show NO device..
View 1 Replies View Relatedsince yesterday when I open up an explorer style window, say I browsed folders in Gnome for each folder it opens a new window. However; when I go to change it so it does it in the same window either through edit properties or system/preferences/file management it does not open and instead a bugzilla window opens as it crashes (taking my desktop with it until it refreshes)
View 2 Replies View RelatedNot sure where to post this, I am runing 10.04 LTS, 64 bit and things have been great, until..... I activated a Ubuntu One account and once I did, my Ubuntu One folder would immediately close upon opening and my downloads folder would immediately close upon opening. I delt with it, no big deal. So I decided that I need to get my crap off the Ubuntu One account so I downloaded them all from the website onto my desktop. Now none of my folders immediately close upon opening and ever couple seconds my desktop flashes and a windows quickly opens and closes stating "starting file manager".
I found a couple of posts the looked like fixes, but nothing has worked. clicked off show_desktop in gconf-editor which stops the "starting file manager", but does not stop the folder from immediately closing. I also found this, [URL]... but I don't know hoe to apply the patch nor if I should. I have tried some other things, but I cant find the threads again to provide. I believe one was the killall Nautilus then apply Linux Essentials, which I don't think even ran at all.
I have a generic PC (VIA chipset, AMD 1.8 GHz, old NVIDIA card, etc) running Ubuntu 10.04 side-by-side with a Windows XP box. The Ubuntu box can see and mount some of the Windows disks via SAMBA. Recently, I had a little hardware problems with the Ubuntu box but cleaned the fans and reseated cards and things seemed better. Today the Ubuntu box rebooted and when it came back up I could log in OK but then the X11 GUI locked up in a continuous "Starting File Manager" loop. If I click anything the taskbars go away showing only a blank wallpaper screen then the taskbars return but but will recycle if I click on anything. I can reboot in recovery mode and have applied all updates from that screen. The underlying Linux seems to be fine. I can CTRL+ALT+F1 and get a terminal screen that works fine.

I was running 10.04 and somehow out of the blue it wouldnt boot up so I get unetbootin usb with 10.10 and do a fresh install and right off the bat 2 things are wrong 1.) the gnome icons are corrupt so i reinstall them 2.) I get infinite "Starting File Manager" windows opening. Everytime I restart or startup the same thing. I have to killall nautilus in terminal on start up. I also can not right click on the desktop and trying to open nautilus after the fact is useless.

Quote:
Xfce power manager. Unable to read AC adapter status, the power manager will not work properly. Possible reasons: The AC adapter driver is not loaded, broken connection with the hardware abstract layer or the message bus daemon is not running.
dbus-daemon is running, so according to the error message the problem must be the AC adapter driver is not loaded, or broken connection with the hardware abstract layer.
Non-root user cannot launch "shortcuts" (sorry I grew up on windows, don't know the right term) from the file manager or plasma desktop manager.They have full permissions to the shortcuts, even ones they create do not work.If I log in with root permissions they work fine

Running 10.10. After installing Screenlets from the software center, I opened the screenlets manager to start the GCal widget that I wanted to run. However, when I click start/stop nothing happened. I was hoping that it was something simple so I moved my dock around to see if the widget was starting behind the taskbar or dock, but no such luck. I have the widget layer enabled in compiz, but the screenlet is not showing up there either.. Just a blank screen when I hit F9.
I've installed compiz, conky, compiz-fusion, compiz-plugins-extra and I can see all the options that seem to be necessary for the screenlets to function. I just don't see anything for any of the screenlets when I try to enable them via start/stop....
recently i did a reinstall of debian lenny with gnome. My laptop has the broadcom wireless chip, and went and got the squeeze broadcom-sta deb packages and installed them, following the debian wiki. Everything seems to be running. iwconfig shows lo, eth0 both with no wireless connections and eth2 that seems to be running.My issue seems to be with the wireless configuration with network-manager. I have used this in the past and like it well enough and didn't have any issues with it. But for some reason, it is not working with this installation. It doesn't show up as a panel addition and when i try to command line call it up (nm-applet), the terminal just sits there doing nothing. I try to call it up as root, no dice - gives me the gtk-warning cannot open display issue that a xhost +localhost doesn't fix. Reinstalling network-manager and associated packages didn't work. So, fine, i tried the network monitor applet. I cannot select eth2, but by typing that into the connection name, i get a signal strength % - another indicator to me that the wireless chip is working - and then i'll click on the configure button, i get the root password prompt and nothing at all. I am currently seeing about setting the network up command line style, but the 'ol command line is not a strong point for me and everything i read sets things up differently. Other gui applications that require root privileges like synaptic work fine.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm using Sendmail 8.13.8 on a CentOS 5.5 vServer (Virtuozzo). I'm using a loop in PHP to send a lot of HTML-mails via sendmail. Each mail is a mail with individual statistics for our users, so its not mass mailing, bcc is not an option. It all works fine, but when I take a closer look there is a problem heading our way with a high number of mails: For each mail sendmail opens up 43 files. Sometimes these open files get closed again very fast, sometimes not.
Here is an example using the PHP-script below, it sends 20 mails in a loop:
[root]# php test-mail.php
START: number of open files: 2113
END: number of open files: 2973
This is the worst case. The number of open files (lsof | wc -l) used to send the 20 mails is 860 => 43 open files per mail. Sometimes the files are closed very fast, so I get results like this, too:
[root]# php test-mail.php
START: number of open files: 2113
END: number of open files: 2242
This shows 129 (3 * 43) open files, so the open files for 17 send mails are already closed, for 3 mails the 129 files are still open. In the worst case and with lots of mails our server crashes, the numfile limit of 8192 in user_beancounters is reached (our ISP won't give us more than 8192). Sendmail DeliveryMode is background. Could it be that sendmail tries to send lots ob mails asynchronously and uses 43 open files for each?
I'm only depending on sendmail to deliver the mails, normally I wouldn't dare to touch the sendmail config (like 'if you don't know what you're doing, don't!'). It is not a problem of PHP. I verified this by sending mails via SMTP localhost to sendmail (opened 43 files per mail) and sending mails via SMTP to an ISP-relay (did not open any files per mail). This is the code for test-mail.php:
PHP Code:
<?php
$output = shell_exec('lsof | wc -l');
echo "START: number of open files: $output";
// HTML message
$msg = '<html><head><title>Test mail</title></head><body><p>Mailbody</p></body></html>';
// Set 'Content-type'-header
$header = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . " ";
$header .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . " ";
for($i=0; $i<20; $i++) {
// send mail, this opens up 43 files for each
mail('you@yourdomain.com', 'Testmail '.$i, $msg, $header, '-f
[email]bounce@yourdomain.com[/email]'); }
$output = shell_exec('lsof | wc -l');
echo "END: number of open files: $output"; ?>
I have upgraded to KDE 4.3.4. Network manager now works but whenever I reboot or tun the computer on I have to start it manually. I have added it in "system settings > autostart", but it has made no difference.
