Slackware :: Update Alsa From Version 1.0.21 To 1.0.24?
Mar 18, 2011[URL] I am trying to update alsa from version 1.0.21 to 1.0.24 and am having some issues. While trying to build the alsa until I get an error. I've been googling around and so far have found nothing. I was getting more errors earlier but that was solved by installing xmlto.

Slackware :: Beware Thunderbird Update If You Do Not Like Version 3
Dec 16, 2010So I installed the latest Thunderbird security update without bothering to check what version it was and found that I had "up"graded from 2 to 3. Despite selecting 'no synchronization' on all my archived Gmail labels it still started downloading many gigabytes of archived email. In Thunderbird 2 I had just the headers of the archive and that suited me fine. So a warning about installing the latest updates without checking and a question: Is there a Thunderbird 2 package for slackware 13.1?

Slackware :: KDE Does Not Start After System Update
Feb 12, 2011I am using slackware64-current and this morning I have updated my system with using slackpkg. (As you know, huge changes has been applied on the current branch. Kernel, glibc and etc..) Everything went flawness and seems OK. I did not see any error message or somethink like this. After the update, kde does not start. Problem is, after KDM login, nothing happens and turn back to KDM login screen.
To understand what is going on, I switched to init 3 and performed "startx" command. Result is same but I saw some dbus error.
Then I checked whether hald and dbus does run or not and I saw it is running without problem.
Lastly I have removed dbus and hald packages and reinstalled but problem is still running.
Slackware :: System To Email When There Is An Update Available Via Slackpkg
May 17, 2010I want my system to email me when there is an update available via slackpkg. I decided to try a bash script to do the notification. So I started down this route:
VAR = $(slackpkg check-updates)
VAR1 = "No news is good news "
if [ "$VAR" = "$VAR1" ] then; . . .
I keep getting an error on the string comparison. I am guessing the variable types are different but I can't figure out how to fix it. Does anyone know how I can fix this script or accomplish the task at hand.

Mar 26, 2011A friend has an Android smartphone - LG GT45 I think - it's currently using Android version 1.6 and she wants to update to 2.1 or whatever. But she doesn't own a computer. I only use Ubuntu, but I also have XP as a VirtualBox guest. I've installed the LG updating program, and it works fine through the handset verification stage, downloads the software; but when we get to the install stage it will only get to 4% on its progress bar then stops there. We wait and wait, it doesn't get any further, then eventually my virtual XP just freezes up.

View 10 Replies View RelatedSlackware :: Audacity: Is It A Part Of Some Version?
Nov 6, 2010Slackware 12.0 I have installed only CDs one and two of the set of slack 12.0 CDs. According to Slack, it's all I need to make the system work. Now I've done
Code:
bash-3.1$ locate -i audacity
/usr/share/icons/mono/scalable/apps/audacity.svgz
/usr/share/apps/kappfinder/apps/Multimedia/audacity.desktop
bash-3.1$
and I am wondering where these two files can have come from. I get the same output if I run locate as root. May be the whole audacity package is somewhere in the rest of the disk set. But I have no way to find out, except downloading them one by one and reading throu the PACKAGES.TXT files. Unfortunately, the slackware.org no longer supports its package browser.
EDIT: there is only one PACKAGES.TXT file in the distro, and it is on disc 1. And audacity is nowhere mentioned in it. Corollary: My slack distro does not include audacity. But then, what are those two files doing in my system?
