OpenSUSE :: 11.3 KDE - Adobe Air Not Able To Invoke Password Dialog
Jul 16, 2010
Adobe Air are not able to invoke the password dialog for installing apps in opensuse11.3 (i686) .. it waits for root password confirmation however there is no dialog window to input the password to. I've tried installing adobe air apps as both su and normal user, no mather what I do it's not envoking the password dialog..
I've also tried to install the gnome su library to see if it helps any but it don't...
I have also tried to reinstall Adobe Air using both the rpm installer and the binary installer from [URL], the binary installer won't even install.
I can get the use of the AIR apps I need ?

Edit: By the way, I've also tried the normal troubleshooting such as removing the crypt cataloge, removing cache and etc..
Adobe Reader 9.3.3 on Slackware 13.1 (32 bit). This is the stand-alone reader, not the browser plugin. The Reader crashes the second time I open the print dialog. Even if I cancel, and do not actually print. For example: Open a PDF, File=>Print, Cancel, File=>Print. Then the Reader window is gone, with no message anywhere I can find.
to use this command, i have to be in su or sudo. Is there a way I could allow all users to invoke these commands without the root password?? I try to make a file (wireless.sh), which consists the commands above, in /usr/local/bin/. Change the mode to 755 (chmod 755 wireless.sh) however, it does not allow me to use this also.
I have a Ubuntu 10.10 installed on my HP Mini 210, and is having a problemth authentication dialogs when applications requests for elevated permissions. As far as I concern, there are two types of them, one is the kind when you run anything with gksu where the background dims and a dialog pops up. Another type is when you try toinstall software through Synaptic and a dialog box requests for your password. I am having problems with the later one.
Whenever the authentication dialog box pops up, after typing my password and presses enter, or the Authenticate button, the password field disappears while leaving the authentication dialog on the screen. The Authenticate and Cancel buttons are still clickable, but they are not bringing any actions by clicking them. I would have to let the application to continue with elevated permissions by manually closing the dialog. There are very very rareoccasions where the dialog disappears after I click on authenticate, which I can say is 1 in every 100 times
I downloaded Adobe Air, both the rpm and the .bin versions. First I tried the rpm, it went through the motions of installing but just disappeared. then I tied the .bin, got tot the installer, accepted the license, entered my root password, but it stopped installing with "an error occurred. Adobe AIR could not be installed. Install either Gnome Keyring or KDE KWallet before installing Adobe AIR". I opened Kwallet and tried again, but to no avail. I am running OS11.4 64 bit. What can I do to get this thing working?
ive installed adobe AIR on my ubuntu karmic x64 distro as per the instructions on adobe's website, but whenever an adobe air app launches it prompts me for a password. I remember (before gnome-keyring-manager was replaced with seahorse) I found a way around it, but i gather that gnome-keyring-manager has been replaced now
It seems xdg-su is unable to accept my admin/root password whenever I try to install a new AIR application or make an upgrade.Upon every attempt to add my admin/root password I get an error: "su: Authentication failure". In the end: "Error# 5100"!I have recently upgraded to Lucid, but the problem has arisen back in Karmic.
hello i am trying to change my password, but when i type in the new password i get this:"The password is longer than 8 characters. On some systems, this can cause problems. You can truncate the password to 8 characters, or leave it as it is."my question is what kind of problem could i get and how can i change so i have to log in every time i start the computer?
I recently installed OpenSUSE 11.2 on computer.This is a clean installation with no customization or manual config,also I didn't install compiz. When I press ALT+F2 run dialog appears,but I can't type into it.how I can fix this problem??
Whenever, I successfully save a new document, the document's icon does not display in the KDE File Dialog until OpenOffice restarts. The document exists, because trying to do a "Save As" on it produces a dialog that states if one wants to overwrite the document. Also, trying to export a PDF twice has the same outcome.

I have installed SUSE 11.2 and have performed update software manually, using YaST > Online Update. This all appears to be successful. I am getting an error dialog that says Problem connecting to a software source There was a (possibly temporary) problem connecting to a software source. Pleas check the detailed error for further updates. the details are as follows:
I'm using OpenSUSE 11.4 and the GNOME 3 packages in the GNOME:STABLE repository. I maintain an application and have a remote Mercurial repo hosted at BitBucket, which requires SSH to do any push/pull operation.
My passphrase is just that -- a phrase, not a word -- and it's too long to type accurately without seeing it. I cut and paste it from a web page. When I'm asked by a console app for the passphrase, I can do that. The GNOME SSH passphrase dialog does not allow pasting or dropping, so I can either try to type it or hit cancel. Normally, ssh-add provided a way around this; it would ask you for the phrase on the console, and I could paste it.
This doesn't work in GNOME 3. ssh-add still asks me for the passphrase, but when I try any operation that requires the key, the dialog pops up again. How is it possible to get ssh-add to work, or (preferably) get rid of the dialog?
when i try to mount the ISO (it's a Live CD) onto my emulated DVD Drive it doesn't seem to work. The only thing that happens is that the auto play dialog box comes up saying view files and folders and i tried everything and nothing seems to work. I am currently on Windows 7 Home Premium and have an External Hard Drive
Upgraded my 11.2 system to 11.3 today. Can't login anymore using gdm or xdm login window. The password prompt is displayed but no chars are echoed in the password field. when you click Login, it displays "Authentication failure" in the window. The logged messages in the /var/log/messages for the gdm-greeter are:
gdm-simple-greeter: GLib-GObject-WARNING: gsignal.c:2273: signal 'dialog-hidden' is invalid for instance '0x81299b8' gdm-simple-greeter: Gtk-WARNING: gtkwidget.c:5628: widget not within a GtkWindow gdm-session-worker: gkr-pam: couldn't get the password from user: Conversation error gdm-session-worker: pam_unix2(gdm:auth): conversation failed
Note that I can login at init level 3 as root of the user I"m attempting to login with in the gdm window.
On a Debian system, I installed Adobe Acrobat Reader using the Linux binary (AdbeRdr9.4.2-1_i486linux_enu.bin) downloaded from Adobe's website. I realized there's a way to install it from a Debian package as opposed to Adobe's binary (and be able to keep up better with security updates), so I want to remove Adobe's version and install the Debian package. What's the right way to uninstall Reader when it was installed this way?

I work on a product that have to start automatically an application. Running Opensuse 11.2 So in the inittab I have : 1:2345:once:/root/Velox/VeloxBoot.sh 2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2
In the VeloxBoot.sh, if I don't press any key, my application starts after a timeout. If the user presses a key I want to have a login prompt. Unfortunately, if I start /bin/login, I have a prompt with login, but once I enter my login, it does not ask for a password and it says wrong password
I have to execute certain commands (like shutdown Tomcat) on several servers so I'm using a loop and ssh. I put the server's IP on a CSV file which I parse, execute the commands for each line and send the output to a file. The problem is that after processing one line the program stops execution. I wonder if someone could lend me a hand with this, I'm new in bash scripting and I ran out of ideas.
The CSV (servers.csv) file looks like this:
Code:
192.168.254.5:Server 1 192.168.254.6:Server 2 ...
And the script looks like this:
Code:
#!/bin/bash while IFS=: read ip name do sshpass -p "pass" ssh -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" root@"$ip" 'sh <CATALINA_BASE>/bin/shutdown.sh' >> output.log done < servers.csv
I have setup a nis server and client. At first I didn't have a local user defined on the client. The client then used the user and passwords from NIS, so that was ok.
The problem then is, that when the server is down, I couldn't login to my client anymore. So I created a local user with the same name on the client but with a different password (after I shut the nis server down, if nis server was on, I couldn't create a local user with the same name). I then edited etc/nssswitch.conf as follows:
Code: # (like no NIS server responding) then the search continues with the # next entry. # # Legal entries are: # # compat Use compatibility setup
[Code].....
If NIS server is on: client has to login with the nis password If NIS server is down: client has to login with the local password (as fallback)
However the actual behaviour is that I can only login with the local password now. The NIS pasword doesn't seem to be used anymore.
I'm in the unfortunate position that I have to run an app that is written in Adobe Air. Worked fine on opensuse11.1, but not on 11.4. It complains about kwallet or gnome-keyring, which I've installed.
Running 32-bit AIR on 64-bit systems has not been fully tested. However, 32-bit AIR is expected to run on 64-bit systems if they have the required 32-bit libraries and packages installed. The following links describe how to install or update AIR 2.6 on 64-bit versions of Ubuntu 9.10, Fedora Core 12 and OpenSuse 11.2. Installing Adobe AIR 2.6 on 64-bit Linux visit Install Adobe AIR 2 on 64-bit Linux distributions. Updating to Adobe AIR 2.6 on 64-bit Linux visit Install Adobe AIR 2 on 64-bit Linux distributions Adobe AIR could not be installed. Either gnome-keyring or Kwallet must be installed prior to installing Adobe AIR.
My main problem right now is doing floating point arithmetic within a bash script, with variables.Right now I have a folder called "myExamples" with a script called "run_example" that runs with no issues.I plan to(1) create many folders inside [myExamples], that are named [example10] [example11]...each containing an identical copy of (run_example),(2) modify Line 172 of each copy of (run_example)...in one copy, it would be 3.00, the next copy would have 3.05, etc. (This part doesn't work!)How can I use the available calculator bc code to do floating point operationsMy code is below -
#!/bin/sh # run from directory where this script is cd `echo $0 | sed 's/(.*)/.*/1/'` # extract pathname
I'm working on an application which generates random shapes when clicking on a window. I designed the window using Motif. I want to invoke the ButtonPress Event .
I have created a glade file which so far have two regions in it:
1) On the right division is a toggle button which calls a C script when enabled.
2) I have a drawing area, in which I would like to plot a point (X-Y scatter plot). The plot should be generated dynamically using a C script. I am not sure how the integration between the two is possible for a drawing area.
In glade what properties of drawing area should I set? eg.expose event, realize etc. I was thinking of using cairo for generating the plot.
I am running usb version of lucid 10.04.2, with many apt-get installs. Shortly after running awhile, programs will not run, I get either an "input/output error" or "Bus error (core dumped)". (Examples of programs rendered inoperable are top, df, file)
I've read something about a memory leak in Lucid, but in my case, the computer doesnt slow down, things just stop working. Is this a known problem with Lucid? I'm thinking maybe one of my apt-get installs corrupted something. Is this a known problem that has a software update available?
Here is the output of "top" which fortunately currently DOES work, while other progs don't. (the memory usage stays constantly in that 1.5 GB range)
I'm trying to do a little bit of setup on our new server and could use a hand.I'm working on creating a simple display script that our users can SSH in and invoke, here is what I'm attempting to do.
Requirements.
1. Must run X over ssh on Mac OS X 10.5 or greater
2. Must work in the office, or on the road
Implementation: 1. Set up the system to auth against LDAP (Open Directory)
2. Create a script on the PATH that checks which displays are available, and launches Xephyr for the first available one.
3. Create a client script that performs the SSH and Xephyr command so that users can simply click the script to start an X session.
I have 1 set up, but I'm having issues with 2 and hence 3. For instance, I can start XNest with the following commands.Start my SSH session
Status as at 15 April 2010: this fix is no longer required. The repaired RPMs are now distributed through Yast Online Updates, so you can use the normal online update processes to fix the bug In late March 2010 some update packages for Samba were released through the Online Update repositories. They result in calls to Samba in Network Browsers failing to return icons displaying the machines on the local LAN. The problem occurs in bot Gnome and KDE desktop environments. Instead a window requiring a username and password appears, like this screenshot:
I've written this based on my 64 bit laptop; 32 bit users can make a few mental adjustments.You can tell if you have updated to the faulty Samba RPMs by checking your files with this command:
Code: rpm -qa | grep samba The RPMs you will see if you haven't installed the updates will be like these: Code: samba-client-3.4.2-1.1.3.1.x86_64 samba-3.4.2-1.1.3.1.x86_64 samba-client-32bit-3.4.2-1.1.3.1.x86_64
