OpenSUSE :: Dolphin Suddenly Sees Xls Files As OLE2 Application/x-ole-storage
Apr 18, 2011
All of a sudden, Dolphin is identifying .xls files as "OLE2 compound document storage (application/x-ole-storage)." I searched for xls in Configure desktop, file associations and it still appears as application-vnd.ms-excel. It does not appear as x-ole-storage.
Other spreadsheets (ods, xlsx) are still identified correctly and open automatically in the proper program. This is a new behavior, and I'm assuming it has to do with something I updated in Yast. I'm using KDE 4.6.2 under 11.4.
As a workaround, I added the .xls extension to the file association for x-ole-storage, which allows Dolphin to open the file automatically, but it still asks me to install software to handle the file type. I answer no and then the file opens in Libre Office.
Before adding .xls to the file association, I tried to get this to happen automatically by going through the open with other application menu and checking always use this application. This had no effect.

After an update a few days ago, my X install believes I only have a Vesa card. I can't get it believe the nvidia drivers are installed. Not sure what info is relevant, so here's a start:-
[root@undertaker ~]# rpm -qa | grep nvidia
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-195.36.15-1.fc12.x86_64
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-195.36.15-1.fc12.x86_64

I get the follwing error, since I added a new S-ATA HDD to my server, if trying to open the Yast2 Partitioner:
Fehler
Das Speichersubsystem wird durch eine unbekannte Anwendung gesperrt.
Sie m�ssen diese Anwendung beenden, bevor Sie fortfahren k�nnen.
In Englist this means: Error The storagesubsystem is locked by an unknown application. You have to exit this application before you proceed. Here is the output of /var/log/Yast2/y2log:

I'm looking forward to using OpenSuse shortly, and hopefully the install is still being performed. I downloaded the GNOME iso and burnt to disc. It was partitioning my win7 drive and creating new partitions. I went to move the YAST screen and that led me to shaking the window (not knowing the screen would disappear).
Now I'm afraid something bad happened. Please tell me I didn't fry my hard drive! At the moment it appears I am running off the cd. I tried to run the Live installer again and got:
The storage subsystem is locked by the application "y2base" (3620).
You must quit that application before you can continue. I cannot tell if the partitioning/installation is still happening.

I've discovered that Dolphin seems to lose random files when copying many large folders.
I first noticed this a few months ago when I tried to copy my music library from one folder to another on the same HDD. It consisted of around 600 folders and 6500 files. During the copy there were no errors but after the copy I found that some of the newly copied folders were missing files. I put it down to human error or a glitch.
Yesterday I tried to copy 13 folders containing rips of some of my DVDs. Each folder basically had one film of either 700MB or 1.4GB. Again no errors showed up during the copy but I found 3 of the newly copied folders were empty.
It's not so critical with music or films but I can't afford to lose work data like this.
Has anyone experienced or seen a similar problem with Dolphin? I'm going to have to do some more extensive testing but this is not good.
The first time I noticed the problem I was running KDE4.3.4 (I think) and now the latest was with KDE4.4.0.

How do I edit a file (config file, etc.) in KWrite (instead of VI) from the bash shell?I can't seem to "see" certain files using Dolphin and the only way I can locate/see them is using the shell but I'm a complete VI newb and would rather use KWrite for the moment.

I can't open files with anything using Dolphin as superuser. For example with Kate:
Code:

Also, I can't launch kwrite or kate as root per below:
Code:
john@vostro:~> su
Password:

Is there any way to stop Dolphin from creating .directory files in all my directories when I am viewing hidden files?
I am pressing Alt+. to view hidden files in a directory.
Other file managers seem to do it fine.

Whenever I go into the folders they're stored in and try to open them. They close so fast, in fact, that it's only after switching over to Konqueror that I found the files simply will not open. VLC/Kaffeine appears to load for a few seconds and then closes again without any indication of a bug or problem - it just doesn't work.
Been trying to sort this out for the last two days now, but I'm a complete simpleton with computers/linux and don't know anything about using the terminal, etc. (I can't even install stuff without using webpins) but now I'm stuck and searching around for people with similar problems really hasn't turned up anything that is familiar or understandable.

I hope this post is in the right area of the forum.I am searching for the right operating system and application(s) to build a cloud data storage server business like Backblaze.Backblaze uses Debian but uses their own custom application to manage the data, uploads, accounts, encryption, etc... So my real question here is: does anyone have any recommendations for existing application(s) I could use on top of Debian to handle this stuff?

I use a small application called bendometer.jnlp. On my desktop running 10.04 it runs fine after opening with "OpenJDK Java 6 Web Start".
I have installed the same application on my brand new laptop running Ubuntu 11.04 and it was running perfectly until yesterday. Yesterday it hung during the startup and since I killed the hung process it has refused to start again. If I now run it in a terminal using the command
Code:
javaws "/home/steve/Music/Bendo/bendometer.jnlp"
I get the following errors

I have these "out of memory" issues with fedora 13 64bit. previously we had centos5, the same environment in terms of programs used, nevr experienced these problems. the issues are for instance a java application already started stops suddenly, or won't even start.
example from tomcat stop:
[code]...
The one thing i don't understand about these numbers is where it goes all that used memory. i only listed the top 40 tasks out of 200 in order of physical ram used, can it be that even if it "sees" 5gb it cannot use it all, just like say windows7 and usable memory? (I recently troubleshooted that one, where out of 12gb w7 reported 8gb usable, I solved that by reverting the cpu overclocking.)

I just set up Suse 11.1 64bit and installed Virtual Box 3.1.6. I had it running previously with no problems, however, this time I can't get it to recognize any USB ports. In fstab I entered the line
None /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=1000,devmode=664 0 0
and ran mount -a (no go)
I loaded Vmware Player and it uses the USB ports perfectly fine (go figure) I added to the "none" line auto,
busgid=1000,busmode=0775,devgid= etc.
Still a no go - vmware uses them no matter what I have in "fstab" what am I missing with Vbox?

Trying to use Yast2, and it gives errors: " can't access installation media [url] " and this is with all the repositories that used to work fine. Not sure what it could be? I tried to use a mirror, and I got the same results.
Does Yast2 use a port other than port 80 to connect to the repositories? I have not updated the firewall since using Yast last. Have the repository servers been updated since the release of 11.3, to make some editing of the repositories in Yast necessary?

I have Ubuntu 10.l0 installed on my laptop. I recently install the KDE desktop from the Software Center. Today, I noticed something strange. I tried to move a file to the trash when I got this error message: "The trash has reached its maximum size! Cleanup the trash manually." I don't have any files in the trash. I went back to Gnome, and was able to delete the file. I opened up Dolphin while still in Gnome, and couldn't delete anything, so I know that this isn't a KDE problem

Just 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.

When I am copying from DVD to my comp - Dolphin copies some files and directories and some did not. I have to check what was copied and what was ommited and fix the bad copying by copying again. The DVD is okay, it is perfectly readable. There is also plenty of memory around (8 GB). The behavior is new in Jessie, Dolphin in Wheezy used to work flawlessly.
I have met this strange behavior after copying archived data to my new Debian installation. The copyings were "huge tasks", for example 2000 files, more than 1GB total. "Small tasks" seem to copy okay. Nevertheless, the danger or missing files is annoying. What to do?

I built a centralized storage system a year ago (Aug. 2010) and for the past 10 months it has preformed flawlessly. About two months ago (July 2011) I began having problems writing to my centralized storage. The copies (cp -rpv) fail whether they are nfs or samba mounted disks to my centralized storage.
Attempting to copy either frame sequence (.dpx, .tiffs, .targas) or .MOV files now lock up my system and knock my storage offline.
The error that continues to echo back when this happens is :
I have not made any changes or updates to my storage configuration since building it last August 2010. I have reached out to Areca, and they found nothing wrong with the Raid Controller or my Raid settings.
I tried to troubleshoot all the basics - swapped out cables, replaced the WD storage disks, changed switches still the problem persists.
If anyone else has experienced this issue please let me know what you did to fix it. I can also post any error logs or message logs if that would be of assistance.
Below are the specs of my storage system

I'm interested in buying a new hardware for my company. The old server (now 10 years old) should be replaced with a new one. Till now, I was looking on different hardware suppliers, boards and different other places. I found a Tyan board [URL]. The hardware spec is quite interesting and the board would fullfill our claims.
how both storage devices will be supported by Ubuntu or Debian??
- SATA-Controller: AMD SP5100
- SAS-Controller: LSI 1068E

I have a dual boot Dell Studio laptop with Windows (VISTA) and Ubuntu (9.0.4) installed on it. I have recently installed Ubuntu to make it a dual boot. Before that I was using LiveUSB Ubuntu image for six months (without any problems).
During the installation of Ubuntu, I created a Linux partition of 2GB for Ubuntu installation (assuming that it was running successfully on my 2GB USB drive). All of my other work (e.g. documents/programming projects etc.) are stored on the Windows partition (which is loaded during the boot time automatically). The problem is that I get a "permission denied" error while running any executable file on the Windows partition. But if I copy the same executable on the Linux partition, everything works perfect. Am I missing something here?
I have verified that the executable have necessary execute permissions.
