I'm trying to figure out how to change the default settings for my printer under Firefox. I'm mainly interested in changing the default print resolution and the pages-per-side layout setting I can change the settings for all KDE applications through [URL], but I can't seem to be able to find the respective dialog for Firefox / GTK applications.
Firefox itself doesn't seem to have a dialog for the printer default settings; I've looked into about:config but all the value names are rather confusing.

I'm using an up-to-date installation of Squeeze with the default Gnome desktop and am trying to print. My knowledge of configuring printers is very limited if it even exists. Since a friend of mine is able to print from her Ubuntu computer, my plan is to copy her. Here's how she does it. She goes under System->Administration->Printing on the desktop. Then a window pops up titled "Printing" that lists various printers that are supposed to exist. It's possible to add one by selecting Add->Printer. It asks for the root password and then a new window pops up titled "New Printer" which has a subwindow called "Select Device" In my case, the "Select Device" window has the following options to choose from:
- AppSocket/HP JetDirect
- Internet Printing Protocol (ipp)
- LPD/LPR Host or Printer
In her case, she has an extra option called "Windows Printer via Samba". This is the option that she uses. The other options don't seem to work for her. I'm assuming that I just need to install some package in order to make this option magically pop up for me. Does anyone know what package this may be? I currently have the packages smbclient, samba-common and samba-common-bin installed..........

I've been trying to add a printer that's hosted on a Windows XP machine to my Ubuntu/Crunchbang 9.04 laptop. It's been a suprisingly pain-filled process (I've done it before, and it took thirty seconds...), so here's a summary:
Somehow, the cups daemon wasn't running, but I fixed that by downgrading (sic) libgcrypt11.
I've tried both the samba and the samba4 packages.
Since before I started worrying about this, I got an error message while booting up that the winbind daemon had failed to load. I've tried reinstalling it, but that hasn't done anything.
I have SuSE 11.2. There is a security patch for Mozilla NSS Library. However, I get told by YaST that the libfreebl3-3241.noarch conflicts with mozilla-nspr.i586. (There's also a patch for glibc but apparently, it is not "willing" to install this without installing the other patch first). Anyway, I did the following: zypper lp and then rpm -qi libfreebl3 and then zypper lr -d.
Here are the results:

So, I googled about, and found this thread on a mythtv dev mailing list:
No Start with Pulse Audio (Changeset 20310) | MythTV | Dev
Apparently, the new mythtv .21-fixes is incorporating the .22 pulseaudio check. Myth checks for pulse and exits if it can't kill it. I had sound issues with 11.1 before, and tried to remove pulseaudio but created bigger headaches for myself by doing so. Interestingly, if you log into a mythtv session from the xdm, mythfrontend will run. So, pulse isn't loaded at the session level. But, I'd like some other workaround that allows me my normal desktop at the same time!!

I just built a system and put a fresh install of ubuntu 9.10 on it. I have two other systems with 9.10 as well. On both of them the printer (an HP Officejet Pro 7680 set up directly on the network) is shown as an HPLIP printer with a URI that starts with hp:/net/ . When trying to set up this printer on the new machine the option for HPLIP is not present and the URI starts with dnssd://. I can only set up as and LPD Network Printer or an Appsocket/JetDirect network printer. Yes I have the hplip stuff installed on the new machine. My main concern is actually using the scanner function with Xsane. The other two machines scan just fine, the new one can't find any devices. I think this must be connected with the lack of HPLIP functions. This is with the AMD64 bit version of 9.10

What is it telling me? What should I do? What are the implications?
Right now I either can have wireless or sound. When I get sound I lose my wireless which may be due to some kernel issue. I use the madwifi, madwifi-kmp-default, madwifi-kmp-pae, & compat-wireless-kmp-pae for my athero ar 9285. This gets my wireless going.
I followed
SDB:AudioTroubleshooting - openSUSE
and couldn't get sound
Then I followed
Alsa-update-snapshot - openSUSE
I get sound but lose my wireless. I reinstall madwifi-kmp-pae, & compat-wireless-kmp-pae. I have to downgrade some kernel conflicts and I have wireless, but no sound. My sound information is here [URL].
I have a HP Pavilion dv7-2230sa During boot I get a series of errors about ACPI and AHCI Conflicts, the result of which I have to dissable ACPI with acpi=off. However when acpi=off my wireless Broadcom b43 series refuses to enable the wifi. I just can't press the button that would enable / dissable the wifi.
The wifi is detected, the drivers and firmware are installed, however the light remains firmly in the RED.the ethernet works, sound works fine, There also seems to be an issue with the ATi/Radeon Driver being missing which is causing fatal errors at boot time and also some memory conflicts again causing fatal errors.
I have tried this laptop under opensuse 11.2 and now under opensuse 11.3M5 without sucsess - however to my dislike Ubuntu have managed to resolve this by accident between 9.4 and 9.10 but i wanna use opensuse not ubuntu i have asked them to tell me how they fixed it to share it with you but I am still plowing my way through their forum!

Lately I see a lot of posts/threads on NVIDIA cards and disfunctioning desktops. People rely on older posts and howto's, and run sax2 after driver install (either from repos or "hard way"). Symptoms also appear after updating 11.1 to 11.2 The problems IME are 99% related to conflicts with an existing /etc/X11/xorg.conf, which in 11.2 has become obsolete, though it will be read and used if it's (still) there.
On openSUSE 11.2 we have hardware autodetection and -configuration for everything. So no need for an xorg.conf to configure the X-server. on 11.2, follow this, if NVIDIA driver is installed correctly, but still no proper desktop experience:

Did a fresh install of 64-bit Natty on day 1, and have an irksome issue when logging in. Once I'm logged in, Keyring prompts me to type the default keyring password. This happens every time I log in.
The problem is, the option to unlock the keyring automatically at login is dimmed, and only the other 3 options are selectable.
I opened the "Passwords and Encryption Keys" applet and saw 2 entries under "passwords", both named "Network secret for Auto [my network name]/802-11-wireless-security/psk". I see no option here to allow either of these to automatically unlock at login.
how I can get Ubuntu to log into my wireless network automatically instead of asking for the default keyring password each time after log in?

View 3 Replies View RelatedAfter updating/upgrading my packages this morning, the terminal profile preferences screen (Edit > Profile Preferences) no longer had the option at the bottom for setting the default terminal size. This is a problem because the default size went from the 132x43 I had set it to down to 80x24. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on three machines and had this problem on all of them. After noticing the problem on the first machine, I checked the option screens of the other machines before upgrading. The default size option was there before the upgrades, but after upgrading, it was gone.
Here is the aptitude log from the upgrade:

It's almost surely gnome-terminal or gnome-terminal-data, but I included the full list just in case. What are my options for fixing this? Should I try rolling back the upgrade? Should I not bother with that and just try setting the default terminal size through other means?
I am unable to add my USB printer via the YaST2 Printer Configuration setup tool in openSUSE 11.3. The printer, a Dell Color Laser 1320c, was last used with openSUSE 11.2, and setup was entirely uneventful. No driver is provided by Dell, so I used the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint C525A Linux driver. The problem: To add a print queue in 11.3, a Connection must be specified (parallel, USB, network, etc). However, the configuration wizard fails to show the presence of the USB print device.

This printer was working just eight weeks ago under 11.2, and 11.3 is obviously able to detect its presence and identify it correctly. I feel certain the solution is simple, but I haven't found documentation that provides the answer.
I was trying to know if relatime or noatime was set on a filesystem, but i didn't found the information, neither in /etc/fstab, neither in kernel boot options.
First of all, it seems clear that i don't have the "normal" behaviour on atime:
root@antec:/tmp# rm -f test.txt; echo a>test.txt
root@antec:/tmp# stat test.txt | grep -i 2011
Access: 2011-08-01 21:54:30.000000000 +0200
Modify: 2011-08-01 21:54:30.000000000 +0200

- Is noatime or relatime a default mount options, and if yes, from which kernel release ?
- Is there a way to see the default mount options (ie: how can i see why i don't have the "normal" atime behaviour ?)

It all works fine and when I first power up, I get a screen which invites me to select the OS I want to use. There are however two problems:
1) it defaults to Ubuntu (whereas I would prefer it to default to Windows 7 (it's a work laptop and most of the applications are Windows-specific),
