General :: Incorrect Colours In PNG Graphics Using Firefox And DVI Output
May 2, 2011
I have an issue where under certain circumstances images containing yellow or close hues appear bright pink instead.For this to happen ALL 3 of the following must be true:
1. The image must be a PNG with a yellow, orange or a colour close to that.
2. View the image using a gecko based program (Firefox, Thunderbird)
3. Connect the monitor (Samsung Syncmaster P2250) to the graphics card (GeForce 8400GS) using the DVI cable.
JPGs always display correctly, the VGA port on the same card is fine. I can even have Firefox and Epiphany side by side on the screen showing the same url and Epiphany is fine. I normally use Fedora, however with an Ubuntu live cd the images are still pink if all the three criteria are true.
I don't have any other monitors or graphics cards to try unfortunately. If it were hardware, then why is Epiphany ok, if it were software then why does changing the connection to VGA make a difference?

Normally, I use Opera and never have these problems, but in FireFox and Epiphany, I cannot see most of the text unless I select it.
Here is an example:

[url]
I tried plying around with Preferences/Appearances but everything seems to be ok there. Also, if in FireFox I choose 'Use System colours' everything looks ghastly.

The display under vlc is strangely colored in blue, or red missing. Anyway the balance isn't correct. I tried every output module but no one is correct. I am running 11.2/kde.

I am running the Aurora browser (Firefox 7.0a2) and the theme looks very wrong. It looks kinda like the Windows classic theme. Using the Firefox in the Fedora repos has the proper appearance. For that reason, I figured it was just the Aurora builds with a bug. I just downloaded Firefox 5.0.1 from the website, and that has the exact same issue as Aurora. On my main PC which runs Ubuntu + Firefox nightlies, there's no such issue. Selecting the "Default" theme does nothing because it is apparently already in use.

My script.
Code:
I cannot get it to give me the "Unknown?" output. How do I fix my script so that it will give me "Unknown?" when I type in an incorrect prefix?

Green on black = general shell
red on black = shelling in as root to a server
gold on black = media, irc
what colours do you use?

I use putty to ssh to linux box. By default I get black screen background with white foreground.
To change colours, I go to change settings -> Window/colours and then I set background colours as white and foreground colours as black. This is more easy on my eyes. But I can't seem to be able to set this colour setting as default and each time I login, I have to set colours.
Could someone please suggest a solution?

Just fitted an Inno3D (I-7300LE-G4E3) graphics card and I get a distorted boot up screen, a virtually unreadble boot menu (lots of extra white bits all over the screen) and when the system is booting the black screen with "booting from .." and the underscore at the end, is covered with white commas (?!), then the login screen pops up for a fraction of a second, then get a blank screen and no signal-cant get anything after this (or from the vga port on the pc)-I ve tried logging in even though I cant see anything, but no music , nothing.
Thought I might have to download drievers AFTER I d installed it, but as I had this problem, I removed it and tried to download driers before installation. Not sure which of the 4 to try, but tried 2 and neither works-GDebi is offered as an app to open them but nothing happens, nothing happens if I just click on them and when I try and install them from a terminal with the script from the nVidia site, it says unable to open them.

I have a Gigabyte GA-MA74GM-S2 motherboard with integrated graphics that shows up on lspci as an ATI Radeon 2100. I also bought a PCI-Express Nvidia graphics card so I could use the VDPAU feature on Linux (plays H.264 in hardware). The BIOS has three settings about which display to initialize first:
Integrated graphics
PCI graphics
PCI-Express graphics (PEG)
I set the BIOS on PEG, but
I cannot get anything, not even a splash screen or POST messages, to emerge from the PCI-Express graphics card. (I'm using a DVI connector; the card also has an HDMI output.)I cannot get the kernel lspci to see the graphics card; the only VGA controller it acknowledges is the integrated one.Running dmidecode acknowledges the existence of an x16 PCI Express slot, and it says
Current usage: Unknown
There is an additional BIOS setting called "Internal Graphics Mode" which is normally set to "Auto" which means it is supposed to prefer a PCI Express VGA card. I set it to "Disabled" which now means I'm getting no output at all. I will soon be learning how to do a BIOS reset!
Other information: The PCI-E card is a MSI N210-MD512H GeForce 210. This is a fanless card. Although there are no fans to see turning, the heat sink on the PCI-E card is definitely getting hot, so the card is getting some sort of power.It gets all its power from the PCI-E slot; there is no external power connector.The BIOS is an AMI Award BIOS.how can I make the PCI Express graphics card visible to Ubuntu?

My laptop has developed an unusual issue. After I play a flash video in Firefox the last frame rendered in the video will be 'stuck' on the display even after Firefox is terminated. By stuck I mean that it is left as an artifact on the screen, where some, but not all other graphics overlap it.E.g. text in the terminal will get printed on top of the 'stuck' last video frame. This is not just a trivial problem as the stuck frame will not deteriorate as other graphics get printed on top of it, it gets repainted as if there were some process in the background that keeps refreshing it -- i.e. it does never go away, even though some other graphics are always displayed on top of it (such as text).
I have not recently made any modifications to the system such as graphics driver updates.I have tried to reinstall flash, I have tried to reinstall Firefox, I have tried to downgrade my graphics driver.I believe this issue might have something to do with hardware overlay, but I'm not sure.Some process has to tell X to repaint this graphic,I believe that perhaps it is the driver that is responsible for this as video is played by hardware overlay which is associated with the driver? This system is a standard x86 running Slackware 13.1.0 with Linux 2.6.38. It has an Nvidia 8600GT graphics card, I use the proprietary drivers from Nvidia and I have tried several versions, the problem persists.

On certain sites like this one and Sears, after about 30 seconds the screen goes mostly white with a few black spots and the cursor turns into a big white square... for a few seconds. Afterwards, the site mostly returns, but all text on the screen is unreadable.It's not fuzzy, just weird, non-discernible symbols. 4/5 it goes back to normal if I log out and back in, though it does over and over if I revisit the same sites. It's been going on since about Monday.

trying to get Firefox working properly. I have the tarball installed from Firefox�s site and am using Fedora 12 with KDE as the desktop environment. The problem is if I start Firefox normally, say, by just clicking on the firefox script, then the graphics will be rather crude; but when Firefox starts as soon as I log in (because I�ve configured it to auto-start) then the graphics will be nice and smooth. I�m having a hard time trying to find answers for this because I�m not exactly sure what�s happening? I think when it auto-starts as I log in, it�ll use... well, this is the bit I haven�t got a clue how to explain? I�d guess one time it uses QT, and the other time it�ll use GTK.
I don�t know why it�s doing this, and when it�s started normally and I go to shutdown most of the time it�ll come up with a crash report. There isn�t any difference in the way Firefox is being opened, the auto-start calls upon the same script that my shortcut uses, which is the same as clicking on the firefox script in the firefox folder. I have a few images attached to elucidate the problem. I understand I may not have made myself very clear, but I�m having a great deal of trouble understanding what precisely is going on.
Firefox can seem a bit glitchy when the crude graphics are in use. Like the mouse-overs which leave traces of the box behind when you move the mouse away. So I�m having to logout then back in if I�ve happened to close Firefox and want to reopen it...

Sometimes, in Firefox, after looking a video and closing the corresponding tab, a still picture of the video appears in other tabs, even in some other applications than Firefox (e.g. Terminal). I've installed the nvidia drivers on Fedora 14. They seem to work properly.

I've had problems with my sound that i mentioned in this topic: t=1386194 but noone answered so i started trying things.I've updated ALSA and managed to partially achieve what i wanted to, but other things gets messed even worse. I've get rid of choppy sounds problems and i can get sound from few applications UNLESS firefox isn't one of them.The problem is. If i start firefox first, and open a page that is using sound for example ..... and start a vid. Sound from all other applications is somehow blocked untill i'll turn off firefox. Or, when i start a music player, open firefox, pause player, start vid on ..... i have no sound from firefox.
What's weird is that i started quakelive (a web browser based game), started a movie in vlc, and went to system > preferences > Sound / Programs using output atm tab. And there was no apps at all, and both, firefox and vlc were playing sound. (screenshot attached to show this) How can i make firefox not to 'take' whole sound output?btw.
Code:
sudo fuser -v /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/* /dev/seq*

I have recently switched from suse 9.2 32-bit to 11.3 64-bit (luckily I'm still mantaining the old machien for a while).I'm noticing that the graphics quality of the applets displayed by the new firefox (3.6.12 bundled with the opensuse distro) is significantly worse (mainly concerning fonts which look very poor) then the one I used to have on the old system.I see that the new firefox uses IcedTea 1.9.2. The old system was using, I guess, something called libjavaplugin_oji.Is this a known problem with IcedTea and is there a recommended replacenent ?

I've noticed in the past week or so that any time I print something from Firefox I wind up with a pile of paper that has either nothing on it, is a mess of graphics characters, or a combination of the two. No other applications seem to have problems printing. I can successfully print from gedit, OOWriter, OOCalc, as well as other browsers (well, I'm not 100% certain of Opera yet). Output from LaTeX/dvips and even an old handcrafted PostScript file can be printed correctly with "lpr". I've tried printing to a file from all the browsers on my system and they all produce output viewable with "gv" except Firefox. So... I suspect that something's gotten horribly misconfigured in my FF settings.
Q: What does one do to go back to FF defaults without blowing away the entire browser configuration? I'm not keen on losing all the browser settings if I can possibly avoid it. Especially bookmarks and stored passwords (though those could be written down, I guess, and re-saved). This problem started with FF 3.5.4 (if memory serves) that I had gotten from OpenSUSE's download site. Today I uninstalled that and grabbed a copy of the 3.6.3 tar archive and installed that. It didn't help so I suspect it's a configuration problem that 3.6.3 has inherited from the old settings.
One thing I will try as soon as I can is to login into the system as a different user and see if that account is able to print correctly from FF. I will post the results as soon as I attempt that. I was looking around in the "about:config" page and noticed that there are definitions for ancient print queues that no longer exist on our network. I can see no way to remove these. Is there a way to remove these unneeded configuration settings?

Firefox does not open under any circumstances, it's allocated in the memory and has it's process ids, but the browser is not opened at all. There's not terminal output when ran in terminal, no dmesg, debug..., nothing.
The only info I could give:
Terminal try:
Code:
Code:
So, I really don't know what's happening, if someone have some light to shed, I'd be glad.
Slackware 13.1 32-bit x86, package is mozilla-firefox-3.6.6-i686-1.

A few hours ago, I ran "pacman -Syu" to update, and soon after it was finished the power went out for a few seconds, turning off my computer without properly shutting down. When I started it, the time was wrong (or maybe the time zone, since the minute is correct). It looks like it's exactly 4 hours behind (right now it's 18:53 here, but the date command says 14:53). Also, I have ntpd running, in case that matters.

I try to setup a small Debian system running on command line. Remote access shall be possible via ssh (for now also telnet) and a serial connected minicom via getty. I need the serial access as fallback in case the network is down.
As long as the package adduser is not installed, I can login as root via telnet and getty without problem. But from the moment "adduser" is installed with apt-get, the serial root login always fails after entering the right password with the message "Login incorrect". Even de-installing "adduser", or using a brand new "adduser test" user. When installing and using SSH it allows to login successfully, like telnet.
BTW: A dangerous behavior I observed with telnet: When I opening the connection via telnet, I'm immediately logged in as root - without asking for a password! I set a password with passwd which also is requested by SSH and getty (before the adduser installation) but not by telnet?!?!?
The /var/log/messages adds a line if login with su, but nothing when fails with getty
Here is my inittab:
Code:
# /etc/inittab: init(8) configuration.
# inittab,v 1.1 2006-07-27 08:58:03 lothar Exp
# The default runlevel.

I have set up a new account, with a user name of Benjamin.However, when running a sudo command, while logged in with the user name 'Benjamin', I receive an incorrect password error.Yes, I am entering the password for user name 'Benjamin' and not that of the root account.

I just got a new laptop for work that dual boots with Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.10.Normally, I can use an sslvpn connection to log onto my office servers to transfer data back and forth through Windows. However, I do my actual work on Linux, which the computing services department at the university where I work has not set up a sslvpn connection method for.I got the JRE set up on Linux and loaded up the sslvpn connection when I was asked for my sudo password. After following some other instructions, I created a different password to act as root.I entered that password over and over again and now I'm not able to attempt to connect again by trying another password.

I've never observed this problem neither did any of my colleagues trying to SSH into the same system. If I try logging into my server using a wrong username and then press ^C to terminate or exhaust my password attempts, I am locked out for at least an hour. Is there something I can do on my end to fix this problem?

I have a server running ArchLinux; I recently installed openntpd on it. Since I started paying closer attention to the clock, I started noticing other things; specifically when I run the "date" command, it's returned in PST when it should be "EST":
[spice@sandbox ~]$ date
Sat Mar 6 00:17:42 PST 2010
I have set the hwclock to localtime, configured "HARDWARECLOCK" to "localtime" in rc.conf, and chosen two different (but accurate) values for TIMEZONE in rc.conf:
[spice@sandbox ~]$ hwclock
Sat 06 Mar 2010 03:17:38 AM PST -0.922220 seconds
[spice@sandbox ~]$ cat /etc/rc.conf | grep TIMEZONE
TIMEZONE="US/Eastern"
[spice@sandbox ~]$ cat /etc/rc.conf | grep HARDWARE
HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"
However, as you can see, "hwclock" and "date" both say they're showing PST, although hwclock is showing the time in EST. I am not sure whether this was the case before installing openntpd. Is there another place where I should be setting the time zone?

In other Fedora machines I've had I get some default colours at the terminal for showing thinks like links/directories/broken links etc.On this machine, FC12 64bit, I don't seem to have anything set. I've seen a number of articles explaining how to customise the terminal but I'm quite happy to accept a default set.Any idea how to reset the terminal so it uses a default theme of some sort?
