Slackware :: Shared Lib Or MP3 Support In All Programs?
Nov 7, 2010
A few days ago I tried out Fedora 14, but it didn't really live long. However, I have now Slackware on my netbook again. While I was trying Fedora I installed Clementine and I had to install an extra mp3 lib (I installed Fluendo MP3) to enable mp3 support. On my main machine I have also installed Slackware and Clementine and I can play mp3, so I ponder where's Slackware's mp3 lib? I egrep'ed /var/log/packages for "mp3" but I couldn't find any appropriate. Does Slackware use a shared mp3 lib or is the mp3 support in all the programs?

After finally getting my wireless/graphics drivers working yesterday (thanks to this forum ) I startx to realize that not a single KDE/Qt application will launch, along with Firefox, or Chrome/Chromium. (I did a full install from the DVD, not deselecting anything, and when I upgraded to -current, I also did the same.)
Ark said:
Quote:
ark: error while loading shared libraries: liblzma.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
but I managed to fix that one by commenting out 'aaa_elflibs' in /etc/slackpkg/blacklist (on a recommendation from #slackware), and running slackpkg upgrade-all again, but that's the only one (afaik) that was fixed. Ark still doesn't work, but it doesn't show that error anymore. When I run it, a box pops up that says "Unable to find Ark's KPart component, please check your installation."
Kate still says:
Quote:
kate: error while loading shared libraries: libkemoticons.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Now, konsole, firefox, and Chromium's errors are a little different.
Konsole:
Quote:
konsole: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libphonon.so.4: undefined symbol: _ZN9QMetaType15registerTypedefEPKci
Firefox and Chrome basically say the same thing
Quote:
/usr/lib/firefox-3.6.13/firefox-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/skypebuttons.so: undefined symbol: _ZN9QListData11detach_growEPii
again, I am completely baffled here, as I had kate, konsole and ark running before I upgraded to -current.

I've been playing around with awesome wm, uzbl and doing quite a bit of reading and thinking. Do more programs need scripting support? I've found that being able to tell a program what I want it to do specificially has made life much easier. I'm finding some things (my prefered editors, ed and vim) are starting to seem a little limited since what they can do is fairly well defined and hard to change.

Trying to launch Second Life gives the following error message:
You are running the Second Life Viewer on a x86_64 platform. The most common problems when launching the Viewer (particularly 'bin/do-not-directly-run-secondlife-bin: not found' and 'error while loading shared libraries') may be solved by installing your Linux
This problem was easily found using search with solutions for Fedora 11.
The following information has been found for adding the 32 bit support to Fedora 11 but it does not work in Fedora 12.
The file created in the instructions below is a list of the 32 bit libraries. It is then called as input to yum to simply install them.
"Add the Libraries Next, add the 32-bit libraries by copying the following list, and pasting it into a text file. Save it as �Fedora-ia32.txt�."
Another post says that was all unnecessary as the following commands would do the same thing.
Could have simply been achieved by calling:$ yum install SDL.i586...(Or by selecting SDL.i586 in add/remove programs.)
The problem I have with Fedora 12 are neither of these will install anything in Fedora 12. Looking at add/remove programs does not yield anthing that looks like it is 32 bit support when searching with the argument "SDL".
Does anyone know how to install 32 bit support into Fedora 12 64 bit version ? I like the simple yum expression rather than long lists like the first example uses, but I'll try anything if it works.
A side question to this entire experiment is what chance would you give to Second Life being able to be run remotely using VNC? I would think if it runes on the Linux machine, using a remote terminal would have little impact. Using VNC isn't the usual way this will be run, I just wonder if it would work at all.

I have GParted installed, running openSUSE 11.3 with GNOME. When running GParted, it always grayed out most file system actions, supporting only hfs fully. This made no sense, as I had all the required packages installed for other file system support. However, I recently figured out how to get it to work. Using the installed menu button doesn't work, running "gnomesu /usr/sbin/gparted" doesn't work; to get it to work, I have to open up a terminal, type "su -" to log in as root, and then run gparted. The menu button and gnomesu both prompt for a password, so it should be running as root, but launching it through the root terminal is the only way to actually get it to work. Is one root different from another?

I try to set up a 5 nodes cluster and a shared Coraid Storage with conga but it fails with "Shared Storage Support" checked.The message is:'A problem occurred when installing packages: Packages of set "Clustered Storage" are not present in available repository' and it is shown under every node on the next sceen after I submit.The pc where conga runs is on the same subnet (192.168.xxx.xxx) and it has the same /etc/hosts of the other nodes.In that pc runs a proxy too and the nodes go out through it (that pc has 2 NICs)Every node (2.6.18-128.1.14.el5-xen-x86_64) is patched whith the last yum update (this morning) the same is for the pc (2.6.18-128.1.14.el5).Every node has 4 NICs , 2 NICc towards the storage the others in bonding towards the WAN.Every node is exactly alike, they have been installed with the ks.cfg generated from the first node and they all have the support for Clustering, Virtualization, and Clustered Storage.

I am trying to convince the "higher ups" in a small office of about 15 users about migrating from windows to Slackware, one question I have is how long after a release are security updates available? I subscribe to the security mailing list and often see updates that go as far back as Slackware 8.0. What would the safe number be? 5 years, 10 years? Longer? Any input would help me with my cause of eliminating windows all together.

I've recently acquired an old HP Pavilion ZT3000 and have decided to install Slackware, but I'm having trouble with the whole rc.inet1 configuration stuff. I've been able to connect to the internet manually with the following command:
Code: iwconfig eth0 essid [access-point-name] key restricted [my-wep-key]
(...and then use "dhcpcd" to get an ip address.)
As you can see, eth0 is my wireless interface. Not exactly sure why (the comp has a IR port,wifi and Ethernet.) I'm using a shared WEP key (I know the security implications of WEP). The key being shared is the reason restricted is a parameter in the iwconfig command. I've been trying to get it working through /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 but I can't seem to setup rc.inet1.config correctly I'm not sure where to set the key to "shared"
I've searched the forums and I could use the working iwconfig command with ./bash_profile as a startup script. This has the problem I need sudo (ie setup /etc/sudoer), which seems like a lot of work, when rc.inet should work. And it also has the problem of having to enter my password THREE times (login, sudo iwconfig and for sudo dhcpcd) which is horrible (and I don't even know how it would work when I set X to begin on startup again). I probably could also install "wicd" but having to ferry across files and trying to setup things without the internet is a pain.

Looking for moral support and guidance. Currently have 13.1 running nicely with the following partitions:
/swap
/
/home
/var
/usr/local
/notlinux (my name for a storage partition when I want to start all over again)
I have decided to tinker with Slack64-current with multilibs. My intent is to shrink /notlinux an add a new partition for 64's / . Then dual boot the system.
/swap and /usr/local
I see no problem with mounting these partitions in Slack64. I would have two 'tgz' directories [ tgz & tgz64 ] in /usr/local where I would seperate SBo packages (for my benefit). Don't know what having separate /tmp directories would have on sbopkg but that's not a material issue. confirm I can share these partitions.
/home
99 & 44/100 % sure if I changed/added my name from 'dad' to 'dad64' it would not be a problem sharing the /home directory. But what about keeping the same name/uid#, would things get fubared when I jump back and forth between 13.1 and current-64. Comments?
/var
Think I might be getting into trouble here. Suspect pkgtool, installpkg, upgradepkg ... would all continue to work because /var/log/packages would actually have different names [_64] for the 'same' package. At a minimum I want to share the mysql database so might have to create this as its own partition. Other than it would be a mess reading log file would sharing this directory be a major issue.

Desktop effects were working until a resume from suspend failed. After that, it says that desktop effects cannot be enabled due to a technical issue, but it does not say what that issue is, it is not the same dialogue box that says check your X config file, it says it directly in the settings menu. I tried deleting ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc, but it only works once. If I log out and then back in, KDE freezes while loading, forcing me to ctrl + alt + backspace to kill X.
After that, I can log back in, but desktop effects don't work and when I go to enable them I see the same error, and it won't let me. My graphics card is an ATI Radeon X1950PRO. AMD does not support that GPU anymore and the drivers are too old for them to work on Slackware64 13.37. This means I am using the open-source drivers that come with Slackware64 13.37. I just found out that desktop effects are causing the resume from suspend to fail.

I downgraded a computer a couple of weeks ago from -current to 13.1. At that point in time the USB support in my Virtualbox stopped working. Since then I have installed Virtualbox on my wife's laptop, which also runs 13.1, and the USB support doesn't work there either. So I tried it on yet another 13.1 box that I have lying around no USB support. Then I upgraded the latter box to -current and USB works! Given that sequence of events, I'm pretty sure this is a Slackware 13.1 problem rather than a Virtualbox problem. what might be causing this?

And, does that assume that sbopkg support for 12.2 would also end at same time?

I read this on Patrick's twitter: Considering compiling future 32-bit x86 Slackware packages for i686 and finally leaving i486 and i586 support behind. Would the devs mind sharing why the change hasn't been made? I'm guessing there must be a lot of Slackware users with 15-20 year old computers that want to run the latest software.
