General :: Get Program Listed In KDE Multimedia - Slackware 13 - 37
Jun 4, 2011
I've got a program in /usr/local/bin/envy24control I just installed it using .configure,make install because there was no Slackware package for it. envy24control does not show up under KDE Multimedia where it should be, so I have to start a terminal program, and start in on the command line. How do I get /usr/local/bin/envy24control listed in KDE Multimedia so I can use the mouse to start it ?
My Proteus which i installed through wine does not appear in uninstall wine software and it also does not work because you have to execute some license file which i did not figure out how to work it out.
i just upgraded to ubuntu 10.04 the netbook distro. at the desktop view there is a list of about 10 buttons/menus listed on the left hand side, is there anyway to control what buttons/menus are listed and which icons are listed under each of them? having a netbook i would like to remove and unclutter the desktop view as much as possible but i dont want to remove those apps i still want to be able to open those apps if i want to even if by removing those icons and menus/buttons makes it a pain.
How do I kill the KDE program KSnapshot. I'm running Slackware 13 - 37, which is the latest version of Slackware. I don't see any way to kill this thing. There's no Remove Program or Delete anywhere on KDE and this stupid program keeps poping up all the time. I want to kill this thing.
I know the subject title makes it seem like this should be something on the Slackware forums but I think it can be generalized to other 64-bit Linux operating systems which is why I ask here. I'm running Slackware 13.37 64-bit and was wondering if I use Wine to run a Windows program (with multilib files), would it still run as if it had been used on a 64-bit computer?
After cheering the Ubuntu Developers team on the great work they did with hardware recognition, I was suddenly stunned by the silence from my USB speakers this afternoon. Although previously correctly recognized and fully functional, after installing several non- audio updates, the sound from my USB speakers ceased.Moreover, this pair of Logitech Z-5 USB speakers aren't even listed on the Sound menu (System > Preferences > Sound) although lsusb lists them correctly. I have an embedded sound adapter to which no speakers are connected. My PC runs on Ubuntu 10.04. What should I do to get the sound through my USB speakers?
I seem to have lost Rhythmbox on my system. Ubuntu software centre tells me that it is installed, but it is not listed under "sound and video" under "Applications. Is there a way to get it back?
I've just bought a new rig. The graphics card (as listed in the title) is a ATI Radeon HD 5830. With the normal out of the box drivers I can get a resolution of 1366x768 (The native resolution of my 32inch panel) but the 3D performance isn't good.With the ATI proprietary drivers installed 1366x768 isn't in the options (The ATI menu and the normal one)So I need to generate an xorg.conf and add the resolution?[edit] OK so I checked to see if the 3D performance was any better with the proprietary drivers (despite the funky resolution) and it caused Minecraft (The only game I really play under Linux) to freeze on startup. I think what I'll do is stick with the Radeon Open Source driver (which runs all the visual effects nicely anyway) and just do all my gaming in Windows
MPlayer was working just fine last night, but today I'm having problems which may be due to me performing a system update. I noticed that MPlayer was no longer listed in my Applications menu and I no longer had the option of opening videos with it. However, I now had Gnome MPlayer which must have been installed with the update because I never installed it. Whilst going through Synaptic, I found that the MPlayer GUI had been removed, so I re-installed it. However nothing happened when I attempted to open videos with it.
When I tried to use it through the terminal I got the error message: mplayer: relocation error: mplayer: symbol codec_wav_tags, version LIBAVFORMAT_52 not defined in file libavformat.so.52 with link time reference
I found a bug report on this very problem here [URL]. The conclusion was that the person filing the bug report was using a version of ffmpeg not found in Debian and that he'd need a version of MPlayer built with his version of ffmpeg libs. I'm assuming that this is also the case with me, however I'm not sure how to go about finding a build or simply building a version of MPlayer with whatever version of ffmpeg that I'm using. For reference, I'm using Squeeze.
I have a suspicion that this is easily fixed, however a good google (and this forum) hammering having turned up the fix. So I probably have the wrong search criteria, My Gnome Applet for switching CPU Frequency Scaling has 'disappeared' and is not listed in the the Add to Panel.. list of applets.
In red Hat linux i want to implement NIS server. For that purpose i check the current running services under (Server settings,Services) but NIS was not listed in it.please let me know is there different name of NIS service or i have to install it separately
Can anyone explain to me why there are sometimes 10 or 15 processes with the same title and "stats" listed in htop? I'm guessing there are multiple threads running - but that many of them obviously couldn't be running concurrently.
Is there any sort of performance hit taken if a process uses say, 15 non-concurrent threads vs. 10 non-concurrent threads?
I am not an advanced Linux user. I have a VPS with 768MB of RAM running CentOS.I executed the lsof command as root and I see that there is a list of 3000 files. Usually, how many files should be there? My system is getting very slow, so is this list too long?How do I know which files to keep and which to close?I have seen that there are multiple copies of the same files with different PIDs. There are many log files in the list that I have not opened. Is this normal?total used free shared buffers cachedMem: 104287 492 103794 0 0 0
I am about to try Fedora 12. I noticed that most of the mirrors listed for this in lq have 2 isos. The first download listed has 4 - Live, Live 2, Live KDE, Live KDE 2. If I choose to use gnome instead of KDE, can I just burn and install the first two?
I'm working in CentOS 5.4 with the default 2.6.18-164 kernel (which I will be editing but have reverted back to in order to solve this problem.)
Near the end of the init script I have thrown a /bin/sh to get into a busybox bash shell in order to test some scripts. Ive attached the init below.
While in this shell I can see my usb drive in /proc/bus/usb/devices and my hard drive in /proc/scsi/device_info however I cannot mount them as they are not in /dev.
I have scsi emulation set in the kernel. When I plug in a USB stick it finds the address but still no sign of it in /dev. There are other modules listed in /sys/module such as usbcore that dont show up in lsmod, is that possibly the problem?

I recently updated my computer Using 9.10 and I updated on the 14th. Before the update my sound was working great. No problems, but afterwards my sound is completely gone and under hardware when I click the sound option on the speaker icon I get nothing listed under hardware.
I am using the HP DV2810 US notebook PC. With this being listed as the audio device.
I will also list the updates from my synaptic history. I'm having to use Win7 . And i only wanted that for the few games that one run well in wine.
I have a file that is a list of other files, lets say FilesIWantToTar.dat. I want to say something along the lines of tar -c input-file=FilesIWantToTar.dat archive.tar or similar. Does the tar utility provide this functionality, or do I need to write a simple script?
Since I see on my Centos 5 system, when using the Gnome Terminal, there is no 'Find' feature, do I use grep to search the output on Gnome Terminal?
I see grep syntax is:grep search-term file
But what do I use as the 'file' when what I want to search is the contents of the gnome terminal screen?If there is a good terminal program that does have a 'find' feature, let me know.
when a script in /etc/cron.d directory will be executed?. I know that scripts in cron.daily will be executed daily [ set in /etc/crontab file]? Cant able to find this directory listed in /etc/crontab file?
I installed Fedora13. But my Windows is Gone. I followed Next-->Next and completed installation after 1 hour. When i restarted the system, isaw blue screen something called grub and windows is not listed. I had important data in it where did it go?
My question here is that before installing the multilib libraries, how does a 32 bit program differ from a 64 bit. For instance, and here I am showing my ignorance, but surely if I download a program source, shouldn't the resultant binary following compiling and building be a result of the platform it is built on, or does the source code include references to whether it is a 32 or 64 bit program.
Only asking as I have just gone to Slack13_x64, and was hoping that wine might build as a 64bit program. Or, am I stuck with having to install the multilib libs?
I want to set up a special user, when this user login in locally or remotely, a special program will get run for him. ter this program exist normally or not, the telnet connection should close
