I am using Firefox-4.0b9 from /testing. I never deleted the old profile from 3.6x days. I just noticed that the Slackware identifier icon is now just a generic Linux icon. I checked in about:config, and the general. useragent.extra.linux string is still set to Slackware Linux.Is there something different to do for FF-4x? This isn't a real problem, just an annoying matter of pride.
View 14 RepliesI have a little problem installing src2pkg on my linux from stratch system.
I downloaded the package and saved it on /
After that I did cd /usr/libexec/src2pkg/src2pkg-helpers
There I did a sh src2pkg.setup
But now I'm getting this error message :
/usr/libexec/src2pkg/13-make-description: line 438: 'read_pkg_info_desc : not a valid identifier.
Do anyone have any idea what went wrong ?

I recently upgraded to slackware-current from Slackware 13 via slackroll, and have only encountered one problem. My file manager no longer thumbnails images, and icons (mostly PNG) aren't appearing no matter what GTK theme is set. Running from the command line produces no errors, and when brought up in something else (say feh /path/to/icon.png) it works perfectly. This is the only hitch I have encountered so far. The same thing happens with emoticons in Pidgin. Does anyone know of a fix?

It works well, if I click the link it opens eclipse. My problem is that it shows the rachet icon on the desktop. When I try to change the icon for only that link I end up changing all the icons for all executable to eclipse's icon.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI've got a problem with the Claws-mail client. Couple of days ago I have updated the client to its newest version 3.7.8. Because I couldn't find a ready-made package for Slackware 13.0 I've downloaded the source, unpacked to a folder and using src2slack created a package. Package has been created using default settings. And when done upgraded as it should be with upgradepkg. And it was very nice until I've noticed that Claws didn't load into the tray.
Went into plugin loading screen and saw that the trayicon plugin isn't loaded. This one is easy I thought and loaded the plugin. And then it happened. The plugin didn't load but instead it spit out this message: "The following error occurred while loading Trayicon.so : /usr/lib/claws-mail/plugins/trayicon.so: undefined symbol: gtk_status_icon_set_title". I've found what this symbol should do (or so I think) but it doesn't get me anywhere. I would really like to drop claws into the tray.
just curious if there was some discussion about reasons (not)-including Lua in stock Slackware packages ? IMHO it perfectly fits to distro's KISS philosophy, is very small and packaging maintenance is very easy (only glibc dependency, simple compilation and installation proces). Slackware contains programming language implementations of Common Lisp, Guile Scheme, Ada 95 which I find more exotic then Lua in these days. I know there are some histroical reasons and keeping continuity but anyway ...

2. When I set my plasma desktop to folder view, activity, (whatever, I still don't understand how do folder views and activities relate, it's the most f****d up design ever) to get a full screen desktop (like in Kde 3), and my taskbar panel is at the top of the screen,then I get an "impression" of the default desktop widget behind my background (tried both wallpaper and a solid color). It seems to go away when I move panel to bottom of screen (then can move back to top and it's ok).See attached image.
3. Can't find a way to change color of Title bars. I'm right now using Oxygen widget style with Oxygen theme. I can't live with these gray bars which are even the same color for both active and inactive Tile bars (design idiocy of highest caliber IMO). Changing the color seemed to work when using Plastik just fine.
I am using slackware-current 32bit version. After upgrading from kde 4.2.4 to 4.3.4 (using slackpkg), all my K-menu icons were missing.
There are also no icons in task managers for all kde-based applications like konsole,dolphin etc.. But for non-kde application like firefox, wicd and xmms, the icons show up in task manager. I have tried reinstalling kdebase, kdebase-runtime and kde-userspace with no luck.

This is driving me mad, so bear with me. I'm not sure this is a Slackware issue, in fact I'm sure it's not, but you all have helped me in the past so it seems like a good place to start. Also, I don't really know exactly how much of this information will be completely relevant to my problem, but I really can't pin it down.My server is running 64 bit Slackware 13. It was running fine, mainly just serving files on the LAN, with some occasional SSH activity. I was slowly moving hard drives to it from my desktop system (all 1 or 2 terabyte drives). They were previously formatted with NTFS and were filled with files, so it took me a while to move data around, format a drive, and copy the data back. I decided to use ext4, for no particular reason other than it was the newest, so if I end up having to reformat these again, I'm open to using another filesystem. Right now, I've got two 2TB drives and three 1TB drives, but one of those is still NTFS, so it is of no concern at the moment.
At this point, I had just added the two 2TB drives to the system. These happened to be the new WD Advanced Format drives with 4k sectors. I found a way to manipulate fdisk so it would start the partition on the correct cylinder or whatever to take advantage of the new format. I also ended up using GPT instead of MBR because it had more usable space.
two 2TB drives, GPT, ext4, 4k sectors
two 1TB drives, GPT, ext4
one 1TB drive, MBR, NTFS (not important)
This setup was working fine for a few days until I had to take the server down to move some wires around. When I booted the server back up, I discovered the two 2TB drives were missing. They showed up in /dev but wouldn't mount.
It would appear that the search (find) function has been removed from Konqueror in KDE 4.6. Is that the case? By "search" I mean the ability to search your hard drive, not a web page or document.

I booted again with the dvd, mounted the partition, and navigated to /lib/modules - no 2.6.35.11 in there!

Upgraded from 13.1. Certain panel plugins seem to be gone in XFCE4.
When I try to add the Icon Box, Task List or several others to the panel, I get "Could not open 'iconbox' module".
There is an iconbox module in /usr/lib/xfce4/panel-plugins, along with some others, but they all date back to 3/29. In /usr/share/xfce4/panel-plugins, there is a mix of newer and older files.
Did the icon box go away? Do I need to nuke ~/.config/xfce4?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI've just noticed something odd with 'su'. When you run 'su' with both the '-' (aka -l) and -c command options like this: "su -l user -c command" it doesn't appear to run /etc/profile before running the specified command even though the -l option is specified. If you run "su -l user" without the -c it does run /etc/profile.
Now, on other linux such as fedora it works as expected and runs both /etc/profile followed by the command specified on the '-c'. I'm fairly sure it used to work this way on Slackware (and every other UNIX I've ever used) too. "su -l root -c env" is a good way to see, as you'll find most the environment variables are missing.
