Fedora :: (thunderbird-bin:17467): GLib-WARNING **: G_set_prgname() Called Multiple Times
Dec 21, 2009
Read an article on Lifehacker about the new Thunderbird 3; decided to install it. I installed just Thunderbird itself first,
Code:
sudo yum -y install thunderbird
but when I try to run it I get this error:
Code:
(thunderbird-bin:17467): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times I've since updated completely (which changed nothing, since I updated right before I installed Thunderbird) and installed thunderbird-lightning and thunderbird-enigmail, as they are both extensions I used in the past, to see if they would pull in any odd dependencies to solve the problem.
My recent issue is that when i start firefox 3.6.7 OS 9.10 is that the terminal will pop up and have this error: (firefox-bin:2690): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times. I can only have firefox running when the terminal is running.If I close the terminal firefox will close as well
(gimp:4216): GLib-WARNING **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/goption.c:2132: ignoring no-arg, optional-arg or filename flags ( on option of type 0 segmentation fault
gimp stopped working on kubuntu after installing updates, any fix?
i just tried to install Ubuntu Netbook 10.04 on my old Amilo Lifebook P Series. But after the boot screen and the choice to install Ubuntu i get stuck at the Ubuntu screen with the little dots on the bottom If I hit esc i can see the warning (process 257): GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_(r) failed due to unknown user id (0)
Currently running 10.04. Just did some updates and when it finished rebooting it just doesn't work right. Whenever I click on my user name to enter my password it freezes for 3-5 seconds then the screen reloads. If I do Ctrl+Alt+F7 I get this error(the title of the thread). I have no earthly idea what this means but everything was working great until I did my updates just a couple hours ago. on??
"(process:325): GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (0)"
It comes after choosing language, when the Ubuntu start-up logo shows with the 5 dut under it. I am trying to install Ubuntu Netbook on a little Compaq Mini.
When i try to install Ubuntu 11.04 or try without installing i get graphics like this:[URL] same with older versions, and on older versions i used to get this error: (process:257):GLib-Warning**:getpwuid_r():failed due to unknown user id(0) but on new version it dosent appear. My graphics card is: GeForce 7600GT MSI.
I've upgraded(?) to TB3.1 from the Mozilla repo and instead of a single panel for the password, I get at least 3. The record so far is 6! Going back to 3.0.5 returns to a single panel. I need to stick with 3.1 as a parallel upgrade to Lightning 1.0b2 means 1.0b1 will not work. How to get back to a single password entry?
I am using Debian linux. I have 100 timers running. If a timer expired which will generate a signal and it was mapped to a same function handler. All the timers are mapped to one function handler. The problem is if the timer expires one at a time, the function handler called at a time. But if the 2 timers expires at a time, the function handler is called one time only instead 2 times. Is it possible to invoke the function handler as many times based on timer expirary happens simultaneoulsy?
I have tried multiple times to report a bug, but can't. All I can find is this USELESS guide: [URL]Is this seriously the ONLY way to report a bug? I can't just fill out a form somewhere without running software to do it? When I try to do it the way explained in the guide, it tells me that I'm using a stable version of Xubuntu, and that only people running dev versions (like 11.10) can report bugs.Are they saying that all stable releases are perfect in every way? Surely one must be able to report a bug for them...?
I have a strange effect here, where konqueror is started multiple times. It is no problem to start it from the K-Menu. But konqueror seems to be associated with different actions in applications, e.g. many "help" entries; among others e.g. Inkscape: "Hilfe/Inkscape Handbuch" (~ Help/Inkscape handbook") If I'm unfortunate enough to hit such an item, the konqueror items start flooding my task bar, while the mouse cursor - changed to the konqueror icon - is flickering like wild, while konqueror is starting again and again. None of the windows really open and all icons disappear after some time. (due to some resource overflow, but unfortunately I can't find the relevant log entry this time) How can I prevent this ? (Or debug this, if the cause is unclear)
[Staff Note: This thread was spun off from here: HOWTO: Purge and Reinstall Grub 2 from the Live CD This solved the Grub problem but the crashes continue.]
Just as I get up and running again my 10.04 (64 bit) either freezes up totally, closes all windows that are open, fails to restart or shut down forcing a restart.
There's no pattern to it, i might be using the gimp or checking thunderbird emails, possibly just surfing or running bluefish. Nothing major and I'm not one to go delving under the bonnet so to speak and start tweaking things. I have the AWN dock installed and run a dual monitor setup.
Everytime it's crashed, the damn thing doesn't reboot, I get the init =bootarg message I've been reading a lot about and once again I have to run the liveCD and spend several minutes farting about purging and reinstalling grub.
I despise Windows, overall I am enjoying my ubuntu experience but things like this stop me getting any work done.
My PC ran fine for the last 2 days then suddenly it's playing up again. It's not an old machine, quad core processor, plenty of RAM.
I am having to back stuff up as soon as I do it due to so many crashes per day. I have reinstalled the OS and started again from scratch 4 times now in the last month.
The last thing I want to do is go back to Windoze but I am seriously running out of patience with ubuntu.

I have Ubuntu 11.04 on a disk, and installed it on an empty hard drive. When I start my desktop my screen is black with a flashing "_" in the top left corner... Nothing happens. I usually have to restart the computer multiple times before it will actually work. I tried running Ubuntu in recovery mode and fixing any broken packages, but no luck.
how can I rotate logfiles multiple times a day? I notice that the configuration for the logrotate-command is hourly, daily, weekly,.I notice that I can create a cron job where I specify the different times the log rotation need to be done:15 0,8,12,17 * * *But how do I combine these two ?
My 5.5 server has crashed on my multiple times over the past few weeks. I have 2 terabyte drives mirrored.It automatically reboots and seems to run fine after rebooting.I've attached a copy of the /var/log/message to this post.I was unable to paste file.I'm not if a bad disk is causing the problem or not.
I have experienced amarok crash after which i am not able to bring it back to working state. I tried to reinstall it multiple times from standart playground and kde KDE:UpdatedApps repositories. Every time. i start amarok it hangs on splash screen consuming 49% of CPU with no signs to load completely. I guess i need to clean reinstall with deleting all tracing info form previous install?

On Ubuntu 10.04 I would like to setup udev to execute a backup script when a specific USB drive is inserted. Udev detects the USB drive, but my script is executed 7 times instead of just once. Can't figure out what's wrong.
My udev rules file:
Code: /etc/udev/rules.d# cat 20-stick.rules ACTION=="add", ATTRS{vendor}=="Kingston", ATTRS{model}=="DataTraveler G2 ", RUN="/usr/local/bin/sync.sh" Dummy backup script: connecting USB drive results in 7 times date written to /tmp/test code....
I am running 11.04 with the Unity environment from a USB stick. With "Ubuntu Classic", I can open up my Home folder multiple times and thus copy files from one location to another with drag and drop. In Unity, it seems I can only open up one occurrence of the Home folder. Does anyone know if multiple Home folders can be opened up?
I'm porting C++ application from ARM to MIPS platform. It works now, but I see some strange timing problems. I've seen now that My app process is called multiply time. Here is "top" output:
I used wait4 to time a child process. but the results differ each other dramatically. why?my core source code lists as below.to the point: in linux 2.6 kernel, how to time a process with a high precision. and, only its user-time rather than the elapsed time???

Nothing to do. Used zypper dup to upgrade from 11.3. Still have boot problems (will open another thread), but had major problems upgrading timezone. File downloads would reach some percentage of completion, then B/s would slowly reduce, to zero. Upgrade would halt until manually aborted. Solution was to manually download 5 timezone files and install them in a directory repository. File download did not specify just the timezone file, but also a part of the directory. Could this be part of the problem? example: ./rpm/i586/timezone-2011d-0.2.1.i586.rpm instead of just the file name.System is a Dell 3000 (Pentium 4, 512MB memory).
I just don't get it? I've attempted multiple times to get the knetworkmanager to connect to an unencrypted network, yet it keeps asking for a wep key. However the networkmanager in the Gnome version connects to unencrypted networks just fine. Why won't knetwork manager do the same?
It's been awhile since I've been on here. I suppose that can be considered a good thing, since I made the completely transfer to Ubuntu three months ago and everything's been running completely smoothly. Anyway, security is a pretty big thing to me. I usually change the root password, take sudo off (and default gksu, not gksudo), encrypt my hard drives, etc... One thing I also do is create a separate password for my login keyring. I don't mind having to enter one extra password at login, but it started prompting two times, and now three. It's the same password every time, so my question is..
When my laptop boots it successfully mounts the NFS NAS and I get an icon "My NAS" on my dekstop that points to the NAS. If I double click on the icon it opens my file browser and I can browse thru my NAS fodlers.
What I see on the left hand side of the file browser is that I have to entries for My NAS. One of it has a button to shows that it is mounted and the other does not.
If I go to Places I also see 2 entries for "My NAS". One of it takes me to browsing the NAS and if I click on the other it says "Unable to mount ... busy or already mounted". Which makes sense.
