Slackware :: Occasional "Monitor Output Has Changed" Error Message
May 19, 2011
Occasionally, when startx, I got the error message: "Monitor output has changed" error message ( and sometimes it appear while I am working in X too but rarer). Whenever this happened, my screen changes to "1024x768" resolution when normally it is "1280x800". I click on "Configure", a "Configure Display" windows appear and I have to change the screen to Size"1280x800" back (since it would give me 1024x768"). Besides, the number of error messages will be up to 50s, 60s message. (This "Configure Display" is what you get when you go to "Application->System->"Screen Resize and Rotate" (KRandRTray)) My computer is Toshiba Satellite L500, the distro is Slackware 13.37. It was just installed so all the configuration is out of the box.

sudo still works, but every time I run it, it says it's unable to resolve the host. I tried to change stuff in visudo, but there wasn't anything about the host as far as I could tell.

I cant seem to install Ubuntu 9.10 at all. At 15% I get the following Error Message Input/output Error During Read On/dev/sda then I get the creation of swapspace in partition #5 of SCSI1(0,0,0) (SDA) Failed. Ive tried 6 times already. Im getting no sound at all. How can I change the screen resolution. 800 x 600 is the highest it will go. Im getting really discouraged with Ubuntu. Alot of people seem to have the same problems I am having but there is no solutions. I've checked the MEMTEST and passed, done a disk check and passed.

When I login into my normal user account under runlevel 3, the following error message is printed to the screen:
Warning: add_groups: Invalid Argument
I'm not sure where this is being generated. I don't see the same error message when I login using root.

I downloaded Go-OpenOffice from SlackBuilds.org, but I can't build it. make terminates with configure error: checking for C compiler default output file name. configure: error: in `/tmp/SBo/ooo-build-3.1.1.5': configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details.
(I can't find config.log anywhere) I use a quite 'light' installation (no xap, ap), and I suspect that I have some unmet dependencies, but the error message provides no information about what software is needed (I've installed all dependencies listed on SlackBuilds.org). I'm using Slackware64-13 with Xfce

I am currently running slackware 12.2 on a 25 GB partition. I like to use slackbuilds, but when I try to compile larger tarballs (like abiword, or a patched version of Ghostscript as I did today) I receive an error-message: 'Not enough space left on device'. I think the size of the partition must be big enough (I never got this message when compiling with Linux From Scratch). I think it has something to do with the size of my /tmp directory, but I don't know how to fix this. Is there a way to solve the problem, so that I could be able to use slackbuild-scripts?

Started slackpkg upgrade-up and went to bed. Woke up to find the power had gone out during the night. The computer booted up, but displayed a message that said something to the effect of, "Error occurred during root file system check. You will be given the option of doing maintenance......"I can get to a command prompt, but regardless of what I do a message pops saying it can't find libblkid.so.1

How do I monitor which files have been changed after, say, I run the passwd command? (I know, depending on the options used, it changes /etc/shadow and/or /etc/passwd). But I would like to if there is any clever ways of monitoring this. This is how I do it which is a bit crude, and I have to know which directory to monitor. Before running the command, I run
Code:
for i in $(ls -A) do; md5sum $i >> /tmp/before; done
And after running the command, I run
Code:
for i in $(ls -A) do; md5sum $i >> /tmp/after; done
Then I do a diff to see if any file has been changed
Code:
diff /tmp/{before,after}

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and had the dual monitors all set up using NVidia. When I was leaving my office I intended to lock my screen but instead switched to guest user . . . and now 1 of my monitors from my dual monitor set up has bunk resolution?
I have restarted and am logged in as administrator but I have no idea how to fix the resolution? The dual monitors have always been a problem for me. what in the x11/xorg.conf file I need to change?

Fedora 13 is currently my Linux Distro of choice but I find the Pointer/Activity-monitor is annoying. Usually it has two states ,the solitary round thing or the pointer. Every now and again they are combined into the Ubuntu combination symbol of the two joined into one image. Is there a way to change this image/moving-icon? I like Mandriva's the best and would prefer it worked on all Browser windows so that New Firefox versions did not disable it.Thanks in advance!
The term I needed to find additional info was (Mouse Themes). The (Wait Cursor) is usually included with this.Download the theme you want and go to System> Preferences> Appearance> Customize> Pointers to change to one that is alreadly installed.To install themes, System> Preferences> Appearances> Install. Apparently more than one them can be used on a distro so the Browsers will use its own while Nautilus will use another. Fedora's default one does not funtion properly. It will not change to the pointer if a web page is still loading if you need to sellect something. I learned that Mandriva uses the (Bluecurve) variation for default which is like Ubuntus where it does not have to change between two different images and hense does not lose functionallity.

I changed may graphic card, earlier I used NVIDIA FX5500 with nvidia driver, now I was trying to use ATI Radeon 7500, but there are problems with graphic configuration. At first attempt server started but after I changed a screen resolution the monitor went blank. I restarted a computer but after the X server started immediately the monitor wnet blank. I found that for completely for me unknown reasons Xorg was trying to use an NVIDIA glx module with radeon driver. I removed this nvidia driver, I expected ubuntu would be able automatically to set up a proper configuration, but instead of ubuntu complained about a missing driver. I also tried manually to set up some basic config using Xorg -configure but after that the Xorg server was stuck.

i actually registered here because i'm done with my knowledge of linux, errors which cause my sys to hang and/or reboot randomly after some time. They occur while the system is under heavy cpu, heavy mem-read-write, mediocre mem fill, heavy hdd io (for ~20 seconds every ~5 minutes).
problem background we ordered two identical PCs (specs below), one of them brought those sata errors quoted below from /var/log/messages, the other one runs flawlessly. Same Hardware and Software Configuration. Faulty one brought reallocated sectors right at start, mass seek errors, read errors. 1st try: swap cables, change bios mode ata_piix <-> AHCI. Didn't work. Went away for repair. Stupid Techie did only swap hdd, so problems occured again. Shipping for repair again. Board AND hdd exchanged. no more seek/read errors, no more reallocated sectors. But similar sata problems right after 3 days of previously described workload. Following logs are from after the last repair.

just be aware of this in 13.0 and previous, assigned user numbers begin at 500 by default. in 13.37, they begin at 1000. this is especially important if you have a separate drive or partition mounted as /home and you want to keep your /home data under the same user name while migrating to 13.37 (and like me are keeping a dual boot while making the transition).

Running Slackware64-13.1; installed the SlackBuild Blender and I changed the last line in SlackBuild script to .txz everything seems fine. Now I'm looking at FlashPlayer SlackBuild, noticed the last line is .tgz? Just want to make sure I am supposed to be changing the last script line .tgz to .txz?

I'm not sure about the following behavior so thought I would put it out to see if there is an error I need to resolve, or simply a process that I need explained.I'm also not sure if this is an Ubuntu issue, a Linux issue, or other... but here goes.I ran my "make build" in two different ways; one with just "make build" and one with "make build > output" (so I could review the full script).With just "make build" the process finished and returned to the command prompt.
With "make build > output", after the process had finished (script in output document identical to what was in the terminal with "make build") a new set of data was displayed in the terminal (see below).With the other examples of using "make build > output" the times it would parse something back to the terminal window was when there was an error. As I fixed the errors these breaks back to the terminal window would stop. So I'm wondering if this indicates a new error, but because the "make build" now completes successfully (at least it appears to), I'm wondering if this data in the terminal window is just a behavior related to redirecting the output script using the ">" process and something to do with returning to the terminal once a process completes

I have a problem when using awk:
e.g: awk '{processing text}' File1 > File2
But when I'm processing the File1, I want to print out some messages to the screen (not the File2). How can I do that?

I have a Dell monitor attached to a Dell laptop. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 x64.
Spec:
Latitude E6500 : Intel Core 2 Duo P8800(2.66GHz,1066MHz,3MB)
Base Options : 256MB Nvidia Quadro NVS 160M Graphic Card 1 S
Display : 15.4in Widescreen WUXGA (1920X1200) 2CCFL
Dell 2001FP (attached using DVI)
When I try to boot into Ubuntu with the monitor attached I get a DVI: Cannot Display this Mode message on my monitor. I can boot into Ubuntu just fine if I detach the monitor. Have tried with VGA, but to no avail. I have the latest and greatest Nvidia drivers downloaded from the Nvidia web site. Googling indicates that this is a Dell problem, however, I am not sure about this. It worked just fine on my previous laptop (IBM T61) and Ubuntu 9.10, so I guess it has to do with the laptop and not Ubuntu 10.04.

I have two monitors on my Ubuntu 11.04 system. One of the monitors is an Insignia 32" tv. My problem is that the output from the computer is too big for the screen (when windows are maximized they extend past the edge of the screen). I have tried changing settings on the tv which failed, and cant seem to find a way to do it with either my proprietary drivers or the standard Ubuntu Monitors thing.My video card is a Radeon HD 4670.Currently I am not using proprietary drivers
