I'm trying for the first time to use gpg to encrypt a file with a symmetric key, but gpg doesn't seem to respond when I use the -c switch.gpg -v -c filename.. just doesn't seem to do anything, nor to report any error, and just hangs until I hit ctrl-c.

In my interface , I have created two buttons : start and stop .Tofocus on my actual problem , I have created a simpler UI and code. start button runs a while(1) loop and stop should stop the loop .
The problem is , when I press start , the gui freezes and I cannot press any other button. I cant even close my app.After some thorough experimentation, I found out that when I press start, it never comes out of the while loop. I need the loop to keep running until I press stop .

i m experiencing some problems connecting via ssh two ubuntu workstation: a ssh client and a ssh server The goal of that is to run from local client computer some X applications on the remote server machine
i have configured both client and server for X11forwarding (i think) properly Infact when i launch xeyes on the client i see the X app running
the problem is for all other X apps. For example when i run xclock, nothing happens on the local PC the prompt continues blinking without any reponse, no windows opens and the strangest thing, the shell is stucked. No possible to interrupt with [CTRL]+c the onyl thing to do is close the shell window
Starting in verbose mode (debug), X11 seems works correct , it says x11 confirm as last message .

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have deployed proxy server in my office about a month ago. I have about 7-8 client accessing it through port 3128. After some days of deployment, my server started creating problems. Some clients were not able to access proxy while other clients were accessing it. The error message which I found in cache.log was:
Code:
WARNING: Closing client 192.168.2.99 connection due to lifetime timeout
In this way it was disconnecting clients randomly. The problem resolves when I restart proxy server

I got to the prompt in the subject line. Then I typed grep /sounds/ and return.Then the program stopped responding to commands. I could type things, but nothing happened. Not even when I typed kill -9 and return.Why did the thing freeze up? I don't think there is folder /sounds/.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running archlinux & just recently started having a problem where ALL USB devices will stop responding for a second when a new USB device is plugged in. dmesg doesn't provide any hints.For example, I've got my music on an external HD & it will stop playing for like ~30 seconds if plug in my camera or gamepad...This issue only seemed to start after my home partition was erased & re-created, though I don't see how these two issues could be related.I've been running a custom kernel (2.6.35-rc6) for the past few months, and that hadn't changed to spur this issue. Thinking it may have been something weird with the kernel, I even switched over 2.6.36-rc6-mainline, yet this did not remediate the issue.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been using my Acer Aspire One Netbook, with Linux Lite v1.0.13.E as loaded on purchase, happily for a year or so. Yesterday, when I clicked on the Browser picture to open up Firefox, nothing happened. I can't find how to access anything which will let me check if the icon has lost a link. I have looked on the File Manager and can see the .mozilla folder but don't know what to look for, nor what to do from here.
I have now managed to add the sub-menu which was linked to here: [URL] as a way to Install apps. I can now use this directory to try and open Firefox Web Browser - I then get the message "Failed to execute default web browser Input/output error.

NOW, it would appear my icons formerly occupying my desktop are gone, and i can no longer left or right click on the desktop or group select anything. All the panels function as they should, but now the desktop itself is not responding and as stated my desktop icons disappeared.

After plugging in both USB cords to the system, the drive is powered, will respond to the eject button on the drive itself, but I cannot do anything with it from the computer, namely watching DVDs. I have been using Ubuntu for about a year now, but I still don't know much about the inner workings. I would assume this is a driver or compatibility issue, but I thought I'd double check before returning it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been using 10.04 since just before the release candidate, currently I've installed a clean full install of 10.04 and I've been experiencing random nonresponse times with my system. I could just be sitting here reading some email or visiting a web page and suddenly the system will just stop responding.
When this happens nothing responds. No mouse, no keyboard, nothing. It's a total lockup. This problem wasn't happening with any of the Ubuntu releases before 10.04 but something with 10.04 doesn't seem to like my system. My system is an AMD X4 Phenom processor with 7GB of ram, ATI video, etc. It's a fairly nice system and this nonresponse issue is really starting to annoy me.
Is anyone else having a similar issue? I'm going to download the 32bit version and install it to see if the problem happens there too. Not sure on how to track down what could be happening as it really look like its random at this point. Pretty strange and very frustrating. I suppose if I can't figure it out, I can just reinstall 9.10 for now.
I have Ubuntu with a Gnome GUI. When I tried to add a third panel to the left side, it didn't respond for a moment then two panels appeared on that side and all the panels froze. Whenever I log out, shut down or restart, it tells me that Panel is not responding and does not give me the option of closing it. The whole left side of the top and bottom panels are blank now. I can't use the menus or my quick launch icons. When I right click on any of the panels nothing comes up. My other user account and my root profile work fine, (but use different themes), and I can use my account with KDE or XFCE.

I'm trying to install Thunderbird on my mom's desktop. She has been using Outlook Express for years, and I want her to get away from that as well as Windows in general (her computer has a true 1.8 GHZ single-core processor and only 512MB of ram). The first thing I did was install Thunderbird on her XP partition, then I copied the .default file to a flash drive and copied it into the folder where I saw that Thunderbird had another .default folder in (although I never created a user for it). I deleted that folder and replaced it with the .default folder from her XP system. I then went to load Thunderbird, and it gave me the error message that is in the title.
I restarted Ubuntu, and it still gave me the same error message. I then deleted Thunderbird from the Synaptic, Software Center, and Terminal. Every time I went to re-install it I got the same message when I tried to open the program. I did find a couple of threads here that had problems with the same error, but it was after they upgraded the software.I found a lot of threads on Google on how to convert from Outlook to Thunderbird, but most of them were 2-3 years old, and the instructions were useless.
Every time I click on the button to close Firefox I get a warning message saying the window is busy and not responding and asking if I want to shut the application.It disappears after about three seconds.
This happens even in safe-mode with one tab open.It's version 3.0.19 on Jaunty.
I know this is the kind of vague post that people hate. But I'm having a problem. Every now and then (several times a day), my computer stops responding for several seconds.
I notice it most in Firefox. If I'm typing information in a form (like this one) on a web page, everything just stops. If I keep typing, the text eventually appears, apparently having been stored in a keyboard buffer.
But it's not just in Firefox. I have had the same problem in OpenOffice applications. Things just stop. The computer apears to "think" for several seconds, and then things continue.
After several seconds, everything is okay. So some people may say that this is normal. And while I'm no guru, I have been around computers for a long time, so I remember back in the day when this happened all the time. But I haven't seen it (at least to this extent) in previous versions of Ubuntu (or in Windows).
It's a serious problem.
what I should look at? I have a feeling that there is some setting somewhere (cache, etc.) that is set wrong.
I have been using 10.4 as a Linux NFS server to share it's storage with a number of Mac computers we use in the office. All the Macs are configured to connect to the Linux server using the mount_nfs command in terminal.I have been using this method to transfer files to and from the Linux server for a while. Today, I installed a number of standard Ubuntu updates / security patches per the standard GUI update tool.
Now, I'm getting "nfs server 192.x.x.x:/media/video: lockd not responding" error messages. I have not seen this error before, and I haven't changed anything else about the configuration of the Linux server or the Macs with the exception of the installation of the security patches.
All of a sudden, none of the menus respond to mouse-clicks, no right-click menu either...Seemed to be ok all day, now all of a sudden?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am experiencing problems with keyboard shortcuts. It started to happen after I installed gnome shell and switched back to gdk. the most annoying part is that every single keyboard shortcut works except the most used one AKA "run a terminal"
first I thought it had something to do with shortcuts in compiz but no. I changed the keyboard shortcut for "run a terminal" to something wild like CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+N and it still doesn't work. That command is not doing anything... Can i add my custom commands to keyboard shortcuts and how?
I'm using Ubuntu Lucid 10.4 on a Dell Studio 1537 Laptop with a Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000 USB Keyboard. Currently, my keyboard is not responding at all. It's been like this for half a day now. With the exception that it was working fine for quite some time, it used to periodically, and randomly do this out of the blue. Meaning I can come up with nothing logical to tell me why it stops working. The only hint is that the problem first occurred after my upgrade from Ubuntu 9.10.

All of the sudden my keyboard and mouse are not working any more. At login window keyboard is working OK so I can login (mouse is not working), but after login, keyboard is not responding unless I press the key for few moments (perhaps a second) until a keyrepeat begins. Only then key is accepted and echoed on screen.
Funny thing is, if I login as some other user, everything works as expected.
I have already ran Xorg -configure as su, but it didn't resolve the problem.
