OpenSUSE :: 11.3 KDE 4.4 Image Previews Are Garbled?
Aug 14, 2010I am trying to get this new install configured.
I searched for a previous thread but didn't really see one.
My image previews are trashed.
How is this repaired?

OpenSUSE :: 11.2 - VMware And VBox (Webcam Video Garbled)
Mar 25, 2010I am running OpenSuse 11.2 64 - I have vmware Player and Vbox loaded and working fine - I have XP running in each VM - I have a Creative Live cam and was accessing it in each of the VM's, because I can't access it in Suse. This worked very well until recently. I received updates for Suse, one of which was a kernel update - I installed and rebooted. All of a sudden my time to boot took for ever - however - once up and running every thing seemed fine. After a few boots the system started booting normally and the video from my live cam in both VM's is garbled and and essentially not working right.
Video seems to work correctly in all other areas - I removed the creative software and reinstalled in each of my VM's No change. One last thing - I recently (a week or so before my problems) installed an Nvidia video card. I previously used on board video (also Nvidia) I had no problems either in the VM's or Suse until the kernel update. I have removed Vbox and reloaded and set it up (/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup) problem still there.
My OS is:Linux 2.6.31.12-0.2-desktop x86_64
New Video is: G96[GeForce 9500 GT] Driver - nvidia
Ubuntu :: No Previews In The Nautilus?
Mar 14, 2010In Nautilus->Edit->Preferences->Preview everything is set to Always and the size for previews is set to any files under 100Mb of size.
Still I can't see any previews. I am trying to look at the icons inside usrshareicons but all I get is a little icon that looks like piece of paper with an analog clock on it.I gotta see the images without having to open image viewer every time.

General :: App That Previews Video Files?
Jul 6, 2010Is anyone aware of an app that previews video files, i.e. by showing thumbnails, with or without an embedded player?
Running KDE4, the preview setting in Dolphin is very, very slow to render usable icons (even on my reasonably fast / beefy system) and I'm wondering if there isn't something better than the preview modes of file managers in general.
I STFW already and couldn't find anything - there are plenty of picture viewers and plenty of video players, but I couldn't find any video previewers. The closest thing seems to be mplayerthumbs, but if I'm not mistaken, that's just the preview mode built in to Dolphin.
Ubuntu :: Thumbnail Previews Stopped Previewing?
Oct 14, 2010when I freshly installed 10.10 on release date my AVI files were showing thumbnail previews fine as I had pretty much every AVI with a thumbnail to it.
Got some more AVI files today and now they are all just a blank icon (the standard film strip one). Anyone know a way I can fix this?
Ubuntu :: Enable Kde Compatibility In Compiz For Dockbarx Previews?
Jul 3, 2010Quote:
NOTE! To use previews you need to activate KDE Compability in compiz settings manager and under KDE Compability check "Support Plasma Thumbnails". (Alternatively you can use kwin as window manager instead of compiz. That will give you previews for minimized windows as well.)
How is this done? I have CompizConfig Settings Manager and I can't find kde anywhere.
I am running Ubuntu 10.04 (gnome)
Ubuntu :: Dolphin Not Showing 'Previews' Of Movie Files?
Oct 18, 2010Just wondering why Kubuntu 10.10 has a file manager that by default doesn't show the previews of video files? Or did I do something wrong during the install? Does extra software need to be installed to view video files as thumbnails in Dolphin? Or, am I doing something wrong and everyone else who uses Dolphin after installing Kubuntu gets thumbnail previews of their video files? See the attached picture showing a preview of a graphics file. Maybe I'm expecting too much because Nautilus (in Ubuntu), Thunar (in Xubuntu) and Windows Explorer (Win XP/Vista/7) all show thumbnail previews of video files by default.

Feb 24, 2011I few weeks ago DockbarX upgraded tyo 0.43, and since then it hasn't worked at all; not just no window previews, but no icons for open applications - absolutely nothing. This also applies when there's an applet in a panel, not just AWN. I've been through the forums, tried going into Compiz Settings and unchecking, then rechecking KDE Compatibility etc, but it does nothing. Edot - installed awn-applet-dockbarx and gnome-dockbarx-applet from Synaptic but it doesn't help.
View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Mp3 Files - Garbled Sound In 10.04
Jul 20, 2010I'm having with playing some mp3 files. When using Totem or Rhythmbox, after some time (it may be 10 seconds or a couple of minutes), the sound gets garbled, sped up by approximately 5% and in higher pitch. If I exit the player and play the file again, the problem is gone (until it comes again, not much time from that). That affects audio from some video files. Also, there is a quick scratchy noise at the very beginning of playback, as well as with sound preview on mouseover in Nautilus.
Other players don't have that issue (SMPlayer, mpg123...) My PCM volume is not 100% and setting it to lower values doesn't work. The problems are more noticeable if I do something that uses hard disk (installing software, for example.) They weren't present in 9.04 nor 9.10.
Slackware :: Garbled Screen When Exiting X?
Oct 5, 2010I also have had the garbled screen problem when I exit X. I have fresh Slackware 13.1 64 bit install. I have no xorg.config file. The install process installed an xorg.config.vesa instead. Within X, everything is fine. I have the correct screen resolution and all software works great. Within the xorg.config.vesa file my monitor and graphics card have been identified correctly. When the problem first occurred, I experimented by renaming xorg.config.vesa to bad.xorg.config.vesa and using my backed up xorg.config from my previous installation of 13.1, 32 bit version.
When X started, it complained the xorg.config was not found. So, I deleted the xorg.conf, renamed bad.xorg.config.vesa back to it original name and rebooted. Then, everything worked fine except when I exit X I now am put into a huge font - I'd guess somewhere abouts 768x640, or less. It is no longer garbled. If I reboot, text mode comes up as it should with 1048 resolution and the penguin graphic sits on top. Then, X is still fine to work with, and kconsole works fine within X, but when I exit x I am always put back into this graphics free humongous font.
Slackware :: SD Card Mount Name Garbled?
Mar 9, 2011I'm on slackware 13.1 using XFCE for my desktop manager. Out of the box, verything is configured to just mount any device by some name the system determine. If the device has no labels, it may just say "160GB" or "SD/MMC".
It was working fine but all of a sudden, my SD card started appearing with "1(LA" in place of something like "SD/MMC". I've tried rebooting, remounting but haven't figured out how to fix this.

As I load edubuntu on HH, hence this ubuntu loading is important for me.

Mar 9, 2011The clock applet and indicator applet in Gnome garble up from time to time. I have 2 Ubuntu installations at home and several others at work, some 32-bit and some 64-bit, all exhibiting the same issue occasionally. I think it's a bug in the Gnome panel. In the attached screenshot you can see an example of how the time in the clock applet is garbled up.
It's not always the clock that is affected, some other times it's the login name, the weather, or the shutdown button... Worst case, the shutdown button becomes totally invisible preventing me to log off (workaround: use the three-fingered salute).

Jun 3, 2010After applying the latest round of updates last night, I turned on my laptop this AM (ATI X1300 Mobility graphics running the default drivers), selected the latest kernel in GRUB, and waited to log in....only problem is that instead of seeing a normal loading screen (Blue with Fedora icon filling in), I instead get a black screen mostly covered in multicolored rectangles. I don't believe there was a graphics driver update, so I'm rather confused as to what went wrong/how to procede. I can still boot using a previous kernel.

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Garbled Display After Upgrade To 2.6.32-* Kernel?
Feb 4, 2011I used Ubuntu 9 (Karmic Koala) for some time with no problems. When I upgraded to Ubuntu 10 (Lucid Lynx) I ran into graphics issues.After I log in, the screen scrambles (a purple/green mess)--impossible to decipher anything, although I can get out by marking the spot on the screen to click for a restart, so Linux is working behind the scenes.If I start in recovery mode with basic graphics, I have no problems at all (other than limited functionality). If I start the old 2.6.31-22 kernel, I see a bunch of "unmountable" errors in the startup script, but I can use Linux normally with no apparent problems. I'm running an IBM ThinkPad A30 with ATI Mobility graphics. Just to reiterate, the screen looks fine until I log in, at which point it goes bonkers. I've tried lowering the resolution, to no avail. I'm not running any proprietary drivers. What do I need to change in order to fix this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Garbled Screen On SPARC Console Install
Feb 5, 2011So this also happened to me when trying to install an old version of Ubuntu (hardy I believe). I have a Sun Netra X1 that I am trying to install the latest stable Debian Sparc64 port on. I'm doing a TFTP boot, and am able to get the kernel to load. However, once the kernel loads the installer, the screen gets garbled (attached is a screenshot from my console session) This server has no graphics card, so I have to install using the serial console. I don't recall having this issue when I installed the last stable version. Any ideas what's going on or how to fix it? I even passed the option "DEBIAN_FRONTEND=text" to the kernel, but it didn't seem to do anything.
View 2 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Firefox Printing Produces Garbled Output?
May 7, 2010I'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?
Debian :: Cups-pdf Creates PDFs With Garbled Text Information
Mar 14, 2012I print something with cups-pdf. The pdf appears, it LOOKS as it should, BUT if i actually select text from the pdf viewer and try to paste it somewhere, i get messed up characters (sometimes no characters). So this means that searching too is out of the question i guess.
Why is this happening? I dont know if its a ghostscript issue because on Windows there are several gs based pdf printers and those create perfectly searchable pdfs. Is this a cups/cups-pdf specific issue?
PS Printing through the "Print to file" dialog creates good pdfs but i dont know how to replicate that via command line.
Ubuntu :: Gforce 6150le And Garbled Screen With Nvida Drivers?
Jan 11, 2010I just switched from xp on a HP s7613w (gforce 6150 le) to ubuntu 9-10. I can not see anything over 800x600 to select unless i enable the nvida drivers. There are three choices and i have tried them all, After i activate them it will let me select the 1024x768 that i need but the screen is garbled. There will be garbled text till i run the curser over the text then it will stratin up. The buttons on a page will move down and to the right a little bit when i put the cursor over them. When i uninstall the nvida drivers everything goes back to 800x600 and the screen is fine. My monitor is a Sceptre X20 is that helps. I am new to linux so please use easy to follow instructions if you can help me. I tried pc linux and it did the same thing. I like this version better so i am going to try to get it to work.
